(AMZN) has been a great investment in the past, and thanks to strong growth rates and a long growth runway, it could be a solid investment in the future, too - despite a rather high valuation. Since some income investors do wonder whether Amazon will ever pay dividends, we will try to evaluate that question in this report, and show a way for AMZN shareholders to generate income from their investment right now.</p><p><blockquote>亚马逊公司（AMZN）在过去一直是一项伟大的投资，由于强劲的增长率和漫长的增长跑道，它在未来也可能是一项可靠的投资——尽管估值相当高。由于一些收益投资者确实想知道亚马逊是否会支付股息，我们将尝试在本报告中评估这个问题，并为亚马逊股东展示一种立即从投资中产生收入的方法。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Does Amazon Currently Pay Dividends?</b></p><p><blockquote><b>亚马逊目前支付股息吗？</b></blockquote></p><p> The answer to this question, which is surprisingly brought up often, is a clear no. Amazon does not pay any dividends, has never paid any dividends, and there is no statement by executives that indicates that Amazon is about to pay dividends any time soon. AMZN, in its current state, is a pure capital appreciation play.</p><p><blockquote>令人惊讶的是，这个经常被提出的问题的答案显然是否定的。亚马逊不支付任何股息，从未支付过任何股息，高管也没有任何声明表明亚马逊即将在短期内支付股息。就目前的状态而言，亚马逊是一种纯粹的资本增值业务。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Should Amazon Pay Dividends?</b></p><p><blockquote><b>亚马逊应该支付股息吗？</b></blockquote></p><p> The answer to this question is not as easy, as this depends on your viewpoint. Some shareholders that own AMZN stock but that generally prefer to invest in income-producing equities would surely like to see dividend declarations by Amazon. On the other hand, growth investors will point to the fact that the dividend yield would be rather low anyway, and that Amazon could put its cash flows to use in other ways, e.g. by spending on growth capital expenditures, or by acquiring other companies. One can certainly make a case for growth companies such as Amazon to invest in their business in order to drive future growth, instead of paying dividends.</p><p><blockquote>这个问题的答案并不那么容易，因为这取决于你的观点。一些持有亚马逊股票但通常更喜欢投资创收股票的股东肯定希望看到亚马逊宣布股息。另一方面，成长型投资者会指出这样一个事实，即股息收益率无论如何都会相当低，亚马逊可以将其现金流用于其他方面，例如。通过增长资本支出或收购其他公司。人们当然可以为亚马逊等成长型公司投资其业务以推动未来增长而不是支付股息提供理由。</blockquote></p><p> I personally like to invest in income-producing stocks, but not solely, so I own a couple of capital appreciation plays as well, including Amazon. I do not think that dividend payments from Amazon would be a huge plus, as I think that Amazon is not the type of company that benefits a lot from paying out dividends. I also believe that dividends should only be paid out when a company has significant surplus cash flows, as paying dividends that are financed via debt is not creating value for shareholders. Looking at AMZN's cash flows, we see the following:</p><p><blockquote>我个人喜欢投资创收股票，但不仅仅如此，所以我也拥有一些资本增值股票，包括亚马逊。我不认为亚马逊支付股息会是一个巨大的优势，因为我认为亚马逊不是那种从支付股息中受益匪浅的公司。我还认为，只有当公司有大量剩余现金流时才应该支付股息，因为支付通过债务融资的股息不会为股东创造价值。看看亚马逊的现金流，我们看到以下情况：</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9bb9d03526543be149e8628c2939208d\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>数据来自YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> The company currently trades at an 83x free cash flow multiple, which pencils out to a 1.2% free cash flow yield. Paying out all cash flows in the form of dividends would not be advisable anyway, so if AMZN were to pay out 50% of its free cash flow, its dividend yield would be just 0.6%. This is, by far, not high enough to attract a large number of income investors to the stock, and it does not meaningfully impact total returns, either.</p><p><blockquote>该公司目前的自由现金流市盈率为83倍，自由现金流收益率为1.2%。无论如何，以股息的形式支付所有现金流都是不可取的，因此如果AMZN支付其自由现金流的50%，其股息收益率将仅为0.6%。到目前为止，这一数字还不足以吸引大量收益投资者购买该股票，也不会对总回报产生有意义的影响。</blockquote></p><p> The yield would be significantly below what income investors get from the broad market (SPY), at 1.3%, or income-investor-friendly sectors such as real estate (VNQ) or utilities (XLU), at 3%, respectively. There would thus, I think, not be a clear benefit if Amazon started to make dividend payments. On the other hand, even a dividend that results in a paltry yield of just 0.6% would eat up more than $10 billion a year in cash, which would then not be available for investments.</p><p><blockquote>收益率将明显低于投资者从大盘（SPDR标普500指数ETF）获得的1.3%或房地产（VNQ）或公用事业（XLU）等收入投资者友好行业获得的3%。因此，我认为，如果亚马逊开始支付股息，不会有明显的好处。另一方面，即使股息收益率仅为0.6%，每年也会消耗超过100亿美元的现金，而这些现金将无法用于投资。</blockquote></p><p> Amazon's core business is not of a high-margin nature, but the company has managed to expand its size by investing in additional high-value businesses, such as cloud computing. These investments would not be possible, or only at a smaller scale if Amazon would pay out billions a year in dividends. As long as Amazon's management team can identify ways to invest its cash profitably, that is likely the better choice for shareholder value creation.</p><p><blockquote>亚马逊的核心业务并不具有高利润的性质，但该公司通过投资额外的高价值业务（例如云计算）成功扩大了规模。如果亚马逊每年支付数十亿美元的股息，这些投资将是不可能的，或者只会规模较小。只要亚马逊的管理团队能够找到投资现金获利的方法，这可能是创造股东价值的更好选择。</blockquote></p><p> This does not mean that things can't change over time, as Amazon will mature at some point, as so many other companies did. Apple (AAPL), for example, eventually started to make dividend payments when its cash flows grew so large that there was no way to reinvest them all profitably. The same could easily happen to AMZN at some point as well, but for now, this does not seem to be the case.</p><p><blockquote>这并不意味着事情不会随着时间的推移而改变，因为亚马逊会在某个时候成熟，就像许多其他公司一样。例如，苹果（AAPL）最终开始支付股息，当时其现金流增长如此之大，以至于无法将其全部再投资并获利。同样的事情也很容易在某个时候发生在亚马逊身上，但目前情况似乎并非如此。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> Amazon has been investing money into a wide range of acquisitions over the years, such as Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (OTC:MGMB), which will be bought out for&nbsp;$8.5 billion&nbsp;in a deal that was announced two months ago. This move will boost AMZN's original content offerings and content creation abilities for its Prime Video segment, which should, in turn, help attract more users and which will make AMZN more competitive versus Disney (DIS) and Netflix (NFLX).</p><p><blockquote>多年来，亚马逊一直在投资大量收购，例如米高梅（OTC：MGMB），该公司将在两个月前宣布的交易中以85亿美元的价格被收购。此举将增强亚马逊Prime Video细分市场的原创内容产品和内容创作能力，这反过来将有助于吸引更多用户，并使亚马逊与迪士尼(DIS)和Netflix(NFLX)相比更具竞争力。</blockquote></p><p> Making these types of strategic acquisitions that have the goal of positioning the company for market share gains and future growth is likely more useful in the long run, compared to taking these billions and returning them to shareholders for a paltry yield of well below 1%. Last year's acquisition of autonomous vehicle tech company Zoox is another example of a takeover that fits well into Amazon's overall strategy.</p><p><blockquote>从长远来看，与以远低于1%的微不足道的收益率将这些数十亿美元返还给股东相比，进行此类战略收购的目标是使公司获得市场份额和未来增长，可能更有用。去年收购自动驾驶汽车科技公司Zoox是另一个非常符合亚马逊整体战略的收购例子。</blockquote></p><p> Amazon naturally would benefit a lot if it were able to roll out autonomous delivery vehicles at some point, as this could improve its cost profile and allow for even faster delivery times. Spending money to bolster AMZN's capabilities in this area makes sense, and it allows AMZN to&nbsp;possibly enter the robo-taxi market&nbsp;on top of that. Taking the $1.2 billion that AMZN paid for Zoox and paying them out to shareholders would have equated to an abysmally small yield of 0.07% -- in other words, shareholders would basically not have gotten anything out of that.</p><p><blockquote>如果亚马逊能够在某个时候推出自动送货车辆，它自然会受益匪浅，因为这可以改善其成本状况，并允许更快的送货时间。花钱增强亚马逊在这一领域的能力是有意义的，而且它使亚马逊有可能在此基础上进入机器人出租车市场。将AMZN为Zoox支付的12亿美元支付给股东，相当于0.07%的极小收益率——换句话说，股东基本上不会从中获得任何东西。</blockquote></p><p> It should be noted that there is one possible benefit from introducing dividend payments. If AMZN started to make dividend payments today, even at a very low rate, it could start to build up a dividend growth track record, which could, at some point in the future, when growth has slowed down and payouts are growing, come in handy. Some investors are attracted to stocks that have raised their dividend by 10, 20, 25, or more years in a row, thus starting to build that track record today could have potential future benefits, although not in the near term.</p><p><blockquote>应该指出的是，引入股息支付可能有一个好处。如果亚马逊今天开始支付股息，即使利率非常低，它也可能开始建立股息增长记录，这可能会在未来某个时候，当增长放缓而派息增长时，就会出现。方便。一些投资者被连续10年、20年、25年或更长时间提高股息的股票所吸引，因此今天开始建立这一记录可能会带来潜在的未来好处，尽管不是在短期内。</blockquote></p><p> Overall, I think Amazon.com, Inc. shouldn't make dividend payments today, as growth should remain the priority for a company like AMZN. If Amazon planned to eventually become a regular dividend payer, it might make sense to introduce a very small dividend in order to build up a dividend growth track record.</p><p><blockquote>总体而言，我认为亚马逊公司今天不应该支付股息，因为增长仍然应该是像亚马逊这样的公司的首要任务。如果亚马逊计划最终成为定期股息支付者，那么引入非常小的股息以建立股息增长记录可能是有意义的。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Create Your Own Income Using Options</b></p><p><blockquote><b>使用期权创造自己的收入</b></blockquote></p><p> Amazon's stock can be volatile, and that allows users to create income using option strategies such as selling covered calls.</p><p><blockquote>亚马逊的股票可能会波动，这使得用户可以使用期权策略（例如出售担保评级）来创造收入。</blockquote></p><p> If, for example, an investor owns 100 shares of Amazon and was to sell one&nbsp;call option contract&nbsp;with a strike price of $4,500 and an expiry date in January 2022, the investor would receive $46 per share, or $4,600 in total. Relative to a current investment value of $363,000 that equates to a cash on cash return of 1.3%. The same process could be done again half a year from now, which would then allow for an annual yield of around 2.6%.</p><p><blockquote>例如，如果投资者拥有100股Amazon股票，并出售一份执行价为4,500美元、到期日为2022年1月的看涨期权期权合约，则投资者将获得每股46美元，即总计4,600美元。相对于当前363,000美元的投资价值，相当于1.3%的现金回报率。同样的过程可以在半年后再次进行，这样年产量将达到2.6%左右。</blockquote></p><p> Using this strategy, investors could thus create an income yield that is substantially higher than what one can get from the broad market today. The strategy has the downside of shares potentially getting called away, which limits the potential upside. If shares were to run above $4,500 by January, where they would then get called away, the upside would still be 24%, however.</p><p><blockquote>因此，使用这种策略，投资者可以创造出远高于当今大盘的收益率。该策略的缺点是股票可能会被回调，从而限制了潜在的上涨空间。然而，如果股价到1月份突破4,500美元，然后就会被回调，那么上涨空间仍将为24%。</blockquote></p><p> The strategy also only works well if you own at least 100 shares of AMZN, which requires a huge portfolio size due to AMZN's high price per share. Nevertheless, this strategy could be of use for some investors that like to own Amazon, but that do want or need some income from their investments.</p><p><blockquote>该策略也只有在您持有至少100股AMZN股票的情况下才能有效，由于AMZN的每股价格较高，这需要巨大的投资组合规模。尽管如此，这种策略对于一些喜欢拥有亚马逊但确实想要或需要从投资中获得一些收入的投资者来说可能很有用。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Is Amazon A Buy Or Sell Now?</b></p><p><blockquote><b>亚马逊现在是买入还是卖出？</b></blockquote></p><p> Amazon.com, Inc. is, I believe, a quality company with a huge moat and a great growth outlook. It is well-positioned to capitalize on megatrends such as cloud computing, online shopping, and online advertisement. On the other hand, shares are pretty expensive, changing hands for valuations that are significantly higher than those of most other stocks:</p><p><blockquote>我相信，亚马逊公司是一家优质公司，拥有巨大的护城河和巨大的增长前景。它处于有利地位，可以利用云计算、在线购物和在线广告等大趋势。另一方面，股票相当昂贵，易手的估值明显高于大多数其他股票：</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdf764ff4b0eca336f5b0f39fc149329\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>数据来自YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> At 66x this year's expected net profits, and at 50x next year's profits, AMZN is far from a bargain. It also is noteworthy that valuations have expanded over the last couple of months, shares were trading at 20% lower multiples in March. A couple of weeks ago,I estimated&nbsp;that AMZN could deliver high single-digit returns in the long run, which is not unattractive. But shares will, I believe, not generate the returns we have seen over the last couple of years in the future. AMZN is a quality pick, and returns in the 7%-8% a year range from a quality company are nothing to sneeze at, but AMZN is currently a little too expensive to warrant a strong buy rating.</p><p><blockquote>按照今年预期净利润的66倍和明年利润的50倍计算，AMZN远非便宜货。还值得注意的是，过去几个月估值有所扩大，3月份股价市盈率下降了20%。几周前，我估计亚马逊从长远来看可以带来高个位数的回报，这并非没有吸引力。但我相信，股票未来不会产生我们过去几年看到的回报。AMZN是一个优质选择，优质公司每年7%-8%的回报率不容小觑，但AMZN目前有点太贵，无法获得强烈买入评级。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> Amazon is closer to being a buy than a sell, however, I think, and in case valuations come back by a bit, it could be quite attractive - e.g. at the $3,000 it traded at in March.

(AMZN) has been a great investment in the past, and thanks to strong growth rates and a long growth runway, it could be a solid investment in the future, too - despite a rather high valuation. Since some income investors do wonder whether Amazon will ever pay dividends, we will try to evaluate that question in this report, and show a way for AMZN shareholders to generate income from their investment right now.</p><p><blockquote>亚马逊公司（AMZN）在过去一直是一项伟大的投资，由于强劲的增长率和漫长的增长跑道，它在未来也可能是一项可靠的投资——尽管估值相当高。由于一些收益投资者确实想知道亚马逊是否会支付股息，我们将尝试在本报告中评估这个问题，并为亚马逊股东展示一种立即从投资中产生收入的方法。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Does Amazon Currently Pay Dividends?</b></p><p><blockquote><b>亚马逊目前支付股息吗？</b></blockquote></p><p> The answer to this question, which is surprisingly brought up often, is a clear no. Amazon does not pay any dividends, has never paid any dividends, and there is no statement by executives that indicates that Amazon is about to pay dividends any time soon. AMZN, in its current state, is a pure capital appreciation play.</p><p><blockquote>令人惊讶的是，这个经常被提出的问题的答案显然是否定的。亚马逊不支付任何股息，从未支付过任何股息，高管也没有任何声明表明亚马逊即将在短期内支付股息。就目前的状态而言，亚马逊是一种纯粹的资本增值业务。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Should Amazon Pay Dividends?</b></p><p><blockquote><b>亚马逊应该支付股息吗？</b></blockquote></p><p> The answer to this question is not as easy, as this depends on your viewpoint. Some shareholders that own AMZN stock but that generally prefer to invest in income-producing equities would surely like to see dividend declarations by Amazon. On the other hand, growth investors will point to the fact that the dividend yield would be rather low anyway, and that Amazon could put its cash flows to use in other ways, e.g. by spending on growth capital expenditures, or by acquiring other companies. One can certainly make a case for growth companies such as Amazon to invest in their business in order to drive future growth, instead of paying dividends.</p><p><blockquote>这个问题的答案并不那么容易，因为这取决于你的观点。一些持有亚马逊股票但通常更喜欢投资创收股票的股东肯定希望看到亚马逊宣布股息。另一方面，成长型投资者会指出这样一个事实，即股息收益率无论如何都会相当低，亚马逊可以将其现金流用于其他方面，例如。通过增长资本支出或收购其他公司。人们当然可以为亚马逊等成长型公司投资其业务以推动未来增长而不是支付股息提供理由。</blockquote></p><p> I personally like to invest in income-producing stocks, but not solely, so I own a couple of capital appreciation plays as well, including Amazon. I do not think that dividend payments from Amazon would be a huge plus, as I think that Amazon is not the type of company that benefits a lot from paying out dividends. I also believe that dividends should only be paid out when a company has significant surplus cash flows, as paying dividends that are financed via debt is not creating value for shareholders. Looking at AMZN's cash flows, we see the following:</p><p><blockquote>我个人喜欢投资创收股票，但不仅仅如此，所以我也拥有一些资本增值股票，包括亚马逊。我不认为亚马逊支付股息会是一个巨大的优势，因为我认为亚马逊不是那种从支付股息中受益匪浅的公司。我还认为，只有当公司有大量剩余现金流时才应该支付股息，因为支付通过债务融资的股息不会为股东创造价值。看看亚马逊的现金流，我们看到以下情况：</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9bb9d03526543be149e8628c2939208d\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>数据来自YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> The company currently trades at an 83x free cash flow multiple, which pencils out to a 1.2% free cash flow yield. Paying out all cash flows in the form of dividends would not be advisable anyway, so if AMZN were to pay out 50% of its free cash flow, its dividend yield would be just 0.6%. This is, by far, not high enough to attract a large number of income investors to the stock, and it does not meaningfully impact total returns, either.</p><p><blockquote>该公司目前的自由现金流市盈率为83倍，自由现金流收益率为1.2%。无论如何，以股息的形式支付所有现金流都是不可取的，因此如果AMZN支付其自由现金流的50%，其股息收益率将仅为0.6%。到目前为止，这一数字还不足以吸引大量收益投资者购买该股票，也不会对总回报产生有意义的影响。</blockquote></p><p> The yield would be significantly below what income investors get from the broad market (SPY), at 1.3%, or income-investor-friendly sectors such as real estate (VNQ) or utilities (XLU), at 3%, respectively. There would thus, I think, not be a clear benefit if Amazon started to make dividend payments. On the other hand, even a dividend that results in a paltry yield of just 0.6% would eat up more than $10 billion a year in cash, which would then not be available for investments.</p><p><blockquote>收益率将明显低于投资者从大盘（SPDR标普500指数ETF）获得的1.3%或房地产（VNQ）或公用事业（XLU）等收入投资者友好行业获得的3%。因此，我认为，如果亚马逊开始支付股息，不会有明显的好处。另一方面，即使股息收益率仅为0.6%，每年也会消耗超过100亿美元的现金，而这些现金将无法用于投资。</blockquote></p><p> Amazon's core business is not of a high-margin nature, but the company has managed to expand its size by investing in additional high-value businesses, such as cloud computing. These investments would not be possible, or only at a smaller scale if Amazon would pay out billions a year in dividends. As long as Amazon's management team can identify ways to invest its cash profitably, that is likely the better choice for shareholder value creation.</p><p><blockquote>亚马逊的核心业务并不具有高利润的性质，但该公司通过投资额外的高价值业务（例如云计算）成功扩大了规模。如果亚马逊每年支付数十亿美元的股息，这些投资将是不可能的，或者只会规模较小。只要亚马逊的管理团队能够找到投资现金获利的方法，这可能是创造股东价值的更好选择。</blockquote></p><p> This does not mean that things can't change over time, as Amazon will mature at some point, as so many other companies did. Apple (AAPL), for example, eventually started to make dividend payments when its cash flows grew so large that there was no way to reinvest them all profitably. The same could easily happen to AMZN at some point as well, but for now, this does not seem to be the case.</p><p><blockquote>这并不意味着事情不会随着时间的推移而改变，因为亚马逊会在某个时候成熟，就像许多其他公司一样。例如，苹果（AAPL）最终开始支付股息，当时其现金流增长如此之大，以至于无法将其全部再投资并获利。同样的事情也很容易在某个时候发生在亚马逊身上，但目前情况似乎并非如此。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> Amazon has been investing money into a wide range of acquisitions over the years, such as Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (OTC:MGMB), which will be bought out for&nbsp;$8.5 billion&nbsp;in a deal that was announced two months ago. This move will boost AMZN's original content offerings and content creation abilities for its Prime Video segment, which should, in turn, help attract more users and which will make AMZN more competitive versus Disney (DIS) and Netflix (NFLX).</p><p><blockquote>多年来，亚马逊一直在投资大量收购，例如米高梅（OTC：MGMB），该公司将在两个月前宣布的交易中以85亿美元的价格被收购。此举将增强亚马逊Prime Video细分市场的原创内容产品和内容创作能力，这反过来将有助于吸引更多用户，并使亚马逊与迪士尼(DIS)和Netflix(NFLX)相比更具竞争力。</blockquote></p><p> Making these types of strategic acquisitions that have the goal of positioning the company for market share gains and future growth is likely more useful in the long run, compared to taking these billions and returning them to shareholders for a paltry yield of well below 1%. Last year's acquisition of autonomous vehicle tech company Zoox is another example of a takeover that fits well into Amazon's overall strategy.</p><p><blockquote>从长远来看，与以远低于1%的微不足道的收益率将这些数十亿美元返还给股东相比，进行此类战略收购的目标是使公司获得市场份额和未来增长，可能更有用。去年收购自动驾驶汽车科技公司Zoox是另一个非常符合亚马逊整体战略的收购例子。</blockquote></p><p> Amazon naturally would benefit a lot if it were able to roll out autonomous delivery vehicles at some point, as this could improve its cost profile and allow for even faster delivery times. Spending money to bolster AMZN's capabilities in this area makes sense, and it allows AMZN to&nbsp;possibly enter the robo-taxi market&nbsp;on top of that. Taking the $1.2 billion that AMZN paid for Zoox and paying them out to shareholders would have equated to an abysmally small yield of 0.07% -- in other words, shareholders would basically not have gotten anything out of that.</p><p><blockquote>如果亚马逊能够在某个时候推出自动送货车辆，它自然会受益匪浅，因为这可以改善其成本状况，并允许更快的送货时间。花钱增强亚马逊在这一领域的能力是有意义的，而且它使亚马逊有可能在此基础上进入机器人出租车市场。将AMZN为Zoox支付的12亿美元支付给股东，相当于0.07%的极小收益率——换句话说，股东基本上不会从中获得任何东西。</blockquote></p><p> It should be noted that there is one possible benefit from introducing dividend payments. If AMZN started to make dividend payments today, even at a very low rate, it could start to build up a dividend growth track record, which could, at some point in the future, when growth has slowed down and payouts are growing, come in handy. Some investors are attracted to stocks that have raised their dividend by 10, 20, 25, or more years in a row, thus starting to build that track record today could have potential future benefits, although not in the near term.</p><p><blockquote>应该指出的是，引入股息支付可能有一个好处。如果亚马逊今天开始支付股息，即使利率非常低，它也可能开始建立股息增长记录，这可能会在未来某个时候，当增长放缓而派息增长时，就会出现。方便。一些投资者被连续10年、20年、25年或更长时间提高股息的股票所吸引，因此今天开始建立这一记录可能会带来潜在的未来好处，尽管不是在短期内。</blockquote></p><p> Overall, I think Amazon.com, Inc. shouldn't make dividend payments today, as growth should remain the priority for a company like AMZN. If Amazon planned to eventually become a regular dividend payer, it might make sense to introduce a very small dividend in order to build up a dividend growth track record.</p><p><blockquote>总体而言，我认为亚马逊公司今天不应该支付股息，因为增长仍然应该是像亚马逊这样的公司的首要任务。如果亚马逊计划最终成为定期股息支付者，那么引入非常小的股息以建立股息增长记录可能是有意义的。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Create Your Own Income Using Options</b></p><p><blockquote><b>使用期权创造自己的收入</b></blockquote></p><p> Amazon's stock can be volatile, and that allows users to create income using option strategies such as selling covered calls.</p><p><blockquote>亚马逊的股票可能会波动，这使得用户可以使用期权策略（例如出售担保评级）来创造收入。</blockquote></p><p> If, for example, an investor owns 100 shares of Amazon and was to sell one&nbsp;call option contract&nbsp;with a strike price of $4,500 and an expiry date in January 2022, the investor would receive $46 per share, or $4,600 in total. Relative to a current investment value of $363,000 that equates to a cash on cash return of 1.3%. The same process could be done again half a year from now, which would then allow for an annual yield of around 2.6%.</p><p><blockquote>例如，如果投资者拥有100股Amazon股票，并出售一份执行价为4,500美元、到期日为2022年1月的看涨期权期权合约，则投资者将获得每股46美元，即总计4,600美元。相对于当前363,000美元的投资价值，相当于1.3%的现金回报率。同样的过程可以在半年后再次进行，这样年产量将达到2.6%左右。</blockquote></p><p> Using this strategy, investors could thus create an income yield that is substantially higher than what one can get from the broad market today. The strategy has the downside of shares potentially getting called away, which limits the potential upside. If shares were to run above $4,500 by January, where they would then get called away, the upside would still be 24%, however.</p><p><blockquote>因此，使用这种策略，投资者可以创造出远高于当今大盘的收益率。该策略的缺点是股票可能会被回调，从而限制了潜在的上涨空间。然而，如果股价到1月份突破4,500美元，然后就会被回调，那么上涨空间仍将为24%。</blockquote></p><p> The strategy also only works well if you own at least 100 shares of AMZN, which requires a huge portfolio size due to AMZN's high price per share. Nevertheless, this strategy could be of use for some investors that like to own Amazon, but that do want or need some income from their investments.</p><p><blockquote>该策略也只有在您持有至少100股AMZN股票的情况下才能有效，由于AMZN的每股价格较高，这需要巨大的投资组合规模。尽管如此，这种策略对于一些喜欢拥有亚马逊但确实想要或需要从投资中获得一些收入的投资者来说可能很有用。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Is Amazon A Buy Or Sell Now?</b></p><p><blockquote><b>亚马逊现在是买入还是卖出？</b></blockquote></p><p> Amazon.com, Inc. is, I believe, a quality company with a huge moat and a great growth outlook. It is well-positioned to capitalize on megatrends such as cloud computing, online shopping, and online advertisement. On the other hand, shares are pretty expensive, changing hands for valuations that are significantly higher than those of most other stocks:</p><p><blockquote>我相信，亚马逊公司是一家优质公司，拥有巨大的护城河和巨大的增长前景。它处于有利地位，可以利用云计算、在线购物和在线广告等大趋势。另一方面，股票相当昂贵，易手的估值明显高于大多数其他股票：</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdf764ff4b0eca336f5b0f39fc149329\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>数据来自YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> At 66x this year's expected net profits, and at 50x next year's profits, AMZN is far from a bargain. It also is noteworthy that valuations have expanded over the last couple of months, shares were trading at 20% lower multiples in March. A couple of weeks ago,I estimated&nbsp;that AMZN could deliver high single-digit returns in the long run, which is not unattractive. But shares will, I believe, not generate the returns we have seen over the last couple of years in the future. AMZN is a quality pick, and returns in the 7%-8% a year range from a quality company are nothing to sneeze at, but AMZN is currently a little too expensive to warrant a strong buy rating.</p><p><blockquote>按照今年预期净利润的66倍和明年利润的50倍计算，AMZN远非便宜货。还值得注意的是，过去几个月估值有所扩大，3月份股价市盈率下降了20%。几周前，我估计亚马逊从长远来看可以带来高个位数的回报，这并非没有吸引力。但我相信，股票未来不会产生我们过去几年看到的回报。AMZN是一个优质选择，优质公司每年7%-8%的回报率不容小觑，但AMZN目前有点太贵，无法获得强烈买入评级。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> Amazon is closer to being a buy than a sell, however, I think, and in case valuations come back by a bit, it could be quite attractive - e.g. at the $3,000 it traded at in March. Whether Amazon is a good choice for your portfolio depends on your investment goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance, of course, but I believe that AMZN's shares are a solid hold, and a potential buy, for those that want to participate in one of the best growth stories one can invest in today.</p><p><blockquote>然而，我认为亚马逊更接近买入而不是卖出，如果估值回升一点，它可能会非常有吸引力——例如。3月份的交易价格为3,000美元。当然，亚马逊是否是您投资组合的好选择取决于您的投资目标、时间范围和风险承受能力，但我相信，对于那些想要参与其中之一的人来说，亚马逊的股票是可靠的持有和潜在的买入。当今可以投资的最佳增长故事。</blockquote></p><p> It is, due to AMZN's high valuation, very much possible that shares will decline in the near or medium term, however.

If Amazon planned to eventually become a regular dividend payer, it might make sense to introduce a very small dividend in order to build up a dividend growth track record.\nCreate Your Own Income Using Options\nAmazon's stock can be volatile, and that allows users to create income using option strategies such as selling covered calls.\nIf, for example, an investor owns 100 shares of Amazon and was to sell one call option contract with a strike price of $4,500 and an expiry date in January 2022, the investor would receive $46 per share, or $4,600 in total. Relative to a current investment value of $363,000 that equates to a cash on cash return of 1.3%. The same process could be done again half a year from now, which would then allow for an annual yield of around 2.6%.\nUsing this strategy, investors could thus create an income yield that is substantially higher than what one can get from the broad market today. The strategy has the downside of shares potentially getting called away, which limits the potential upside. If shares were to run above $4,500 by January, where they would then get called away, the upside would still be 24%, however.\nThe strategy also only works well if you own at least 100 shares of AMZN, which requires a huge portfolio size due to AMZN's high price per share. Nevertheless, this strategy could be of use for some investors that like to own Amazon, but that do want or need some income from their investments.\nIs Amazon A Buy Or Sell Now?\nAmazon.com, Inc. is, I believe, a quality company with a huge moat and a great growth outlook. It is well-positioned to capitalize on megatrends such as cloud computing, online shopping, and online advertisement. On the other hand, shares are pretty expensive, changing hands for valuations that are significantly higher than those of most other stocks:\nData by YCharts\nAt 66x this year's expected net profits, and at 50x next year's profits, AMZN is far from a bargain. It also is noteworthy that valuations have expanded over the last couple of months, shares were trading at 20% lower multiples in March. A couple of weeks ago,I estimated that AMZN could deliver high single-digit returns in the long run, which is not unattractive. But shares will, I believe, not generate the returns we have seen over the last couple of years in the future. AMZN is a quality pick, and returns in the 7%-8% a year range from a quality company are nothing to sneeze at, but AMZN is currently a little too expensive to warrant a strong buy rating.\nAmazon is closer to being a buy than a sell, however, I think, and in case valuations come back by a bit, it could be quite attractive - e.g. at the $3,000 it traded at in March. Whether Amazon is a good choice for your portfolio depends on your investment goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance, of course, but I believe that AMZN's shares are a solid hold, and a potential buy, for those that want to participate in one of the best growth stories one can invest in today.\nIt is, due to AMZN's high valuation, very much possible that shares will decline in the near or medium term, however. We have seen this from time to time in the past, thus it may be prudent to wait for an eventual pullback before entering or expanding a position if you want to maximize the chance for a more favorable entry price.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMZN":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2893,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":123276509,"gmtCreate":1624427191901,"gmtModify":1634006253734,"author":{"id":"3572441449814859","authorId":"3572441449814859","name":"TianZi81","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01d94807144591ff999444e12f4024ed","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572441449814859","authorIdStr":"3572441449814859"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment","listText":"Comment","text":"Comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/123276509","repostId":"2145067279","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1521,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":163243553,"gmtCreate":1623887285272,"gmtModify":1634026517951,"author":{"id":"3572441449814859","authorId":"3572441449814859","name":"TianZi81","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01d94807144591ff999444e12f4024ed","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572441449814859","authorIdStr":"3572441449814859"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment.. thanks","listText":"Like and comment.. thanks","text":"Like and comment.. thanks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/163243553","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2293,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":169675985,"gmtCreate":1623835540147,"gmtModify":1634027362811,"author":{"id":"3572441449814859","authorId":"3572441449814859","name":"TianZi81","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01d94807144591ff999444e12f4024ed","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572441449814859","authorIdStr":"3572441449814859"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment","listText":"Comment","text":"Comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/169675985","repostId":"1107989851","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1107989851","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623833866,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1107989851?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-16 16:57","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Novavax COVID-19 Vaccine Could Become Available In India By September, Says Partner<blockquote>合作伙伴表示，Novavax COVID-19疫苗可能于9月在印度上市</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1107989851","media":"benzinga","summary":"Novavax Inc COVID-19 vaccine, marketed as \"Covovax,\" could see a launch in India as early as Septemb","content":"<p><div> Novavax Inc COVID-19 vaccine, marketed as \"Covovax,\" could see a launch in India as early as September, Moneycontrol reportedon Wednesday.

All it would need is an announcement of the initiation of a dividend.A dividend of 2% would be a good start, representing about 40% of projected 2021 earnings. It would probably lift the stock by broadening the base of potential investors to those who want or need dividends.Berkshire has stepped up its share repurchases, buying back $15.7 billion of stock in the first three quarters of 2020, or about 3% of the shares outstanding. But with $146 billion in cash and projected earnings this year of $25 billion, it has the ability to pay a dividend as well as to buy back stock.“Berkshire should pay a dividend; this would increase the appeal of the shares to investors who want current income,” says David King, co-manager of the Columbia Flexible Capital Income fund. “Given Berkshire’s size and financial strength, the company is unique in paying no dividend and that should be changed.”Berkshire hasn’t paid a dividend for over 50 years. Why? Buffett’s view has been that a dollar in his hands is better than one in the hands of shareholders. That was long the case as Buffett worked his investment and acquisition magic, but it has been less true in recent years. Buffett declined to comment for this article.In his 2012 annual letter, the CEO addressed the dividend issue, arguing that the better, and more tax-efficient, approach would be for investors who want income to sell a small portion of their Berkshire stock each year.“First, dividends impose a specific cash-out policy upon all shareholders. If, say, 40% of earnings is the policy, those who wish 30% or 50% will be thwarted,” Buffett wrote. “Our 600,000 shareholders cover the waterfront in their desires for cash. It is safe to say, however, that a great many of them—perhaps even most of them—are in a net-savings mode and logically should prefer no payment at all.”In 2014, Berkshire holder soverwhelmingly rejected a proxy proposalon dividends.Yet Berkshire’s cash has more than doubled since then, notes Edward Jones analyst James Shanahan, who favors a dividend. “A dividend is a good idea if only because the cash balance has grown so much,” he says, adding that significant repurchases at Berkshire are more difficult than at other big companies because there is less liquidity in its stock.Berkshire’s class A shares have lagged behind theS&P 500 indexby 40 percentage points since the end of 2018. They now look appealing at around $368,000, less than 1.3 times estimated year-end 2020 book value of around $287,000 and about 23 times projected 2021 earnings. Its class B shares trade around $243.Berkshire has traded at closer to 1.4 times book value in the past five years, and earnings are set to climb in 2021, thanks to businesses with exposure to an improving economy, like the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad.Still, the past decade has been one of missed opportunities for Buffett—with the stake inApple(AAPL) the notable exception.While the recently disclosed big purchasesinVerizon Communications(VZ) andChevron(CVX) made waves, Berkshire was likely a net seller of about $9 billion of stocks last year. The company also failed to capitalize on the market turmoil and make any big acquisitions.So what else might Berkshire shareholders hope to see in the annual letter? More disclosure would help. It’s hard to know exactly how well Precision Castparts and other major Berkshire businesses are doing because the company doesn’t break out their results.There is also the question of succession, with Buffett turning 90 last August. Buffett could give up the CEO job to Berkshire’s vice chairman, Greg Abel, while remaining chairman and continuing to oversee Berkshire’s investment portfolio, including $270 billion of stocks.Berkshire hasn’t named an heir apparent to Buffett, but it’s widely assumed to be Abel, 58, who oversees Berkshire’s vast noninsurance operations, including Burlington Northern.That would give Abel important experience while Buffett is still on the scene, allowing Abel to take new steps, like potentially holding Berkshire’s first investor day.And whether it is Abel or someone else, a dividend would take pressure off Buffett’s successor to reinvest Berkshire’s earnings torrent and align the conglomerate with most other giant companies.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"BRK.A":0.9,"BRK.B":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":281,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":380966652,"gmtCreate":1612505088676,"gmtModify":1703762819997,"author":{"id":"3572441449814859","authorId":"3572441449814859","name":"TianZi81","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01d94807144591ff999444e12f4024ed","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3572441449814859","idStr":"3572441449814859"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Have been wondering what will be the next upcoming GME.. haha","listText":"Have been wondering what will be the next upcoming GME.. haha","text":"Have been wondering what will be the next upcoming GME.. haha","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/380966652","repostId":"1180970570","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1180970570","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1612501989,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1180970570?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-02-05 13:13","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The dark side of the GameStop bubble: Driving stock prices to the moon can hurt America<blockquote>游戏驿站泡沫的阴暗面：将股价推上月球会伤害美国</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1180970570","media":"marketwatch","summary":"Shares of GameStop and other companies or assets that shot upin value in recent weeks are now droppi","content":"<p>Shares of GameStop&nbsp;and other companies or&nbsp;assets that shot upin value in recent weeks are now&nbsp;dropping&nbsp;like stones.

Put simply, it is a money-losing company in a competitive and quickly changing industry.</p><p><blockquote>该公司是一家实体视频游戏连锁店。现在大多数视频游戏销售都是以数字下载的形式进行的。游戏驿站在适应这一新现实方面进展缓慢。其收入在2012年达到95.5亿美元的峰值，截至2019年下降了三分之一。自2017年以来，它就没有盈利过。简单来说，就是在竞争激烈、瞬息万变的行业中，它是一家亏损的公司。</blockquote></p><p>The recent speculative frenzy, however, increased the GameStop stock price&nbsp;from under $20 in early January to as high as $483&nbsp;in a little over two weeks,&nbsp;driven by retail investors on Reddit&nbsp;who coordinated their buying to harm hedge funds,&nbsp;costing the professionals billions of dollars.</p><p><blockquote>然而，最近的投机狂潮使游戏驿站股价在两周多一点的时间内从1月初的不到20美元上涨至483美元，这是由Reddit上的散户投资者推动的，他们协调购买以损害对冲基金，使专业人士损失了数十亿美元。</blockquote></p><p>It is&nbsp;clearly a speculative price bubble&nbsp;and has some characteristics of a Ponzi scheme. Many small investors who “get on the train” late and buy at the inflated prices — especially&nbsp;those attracted by the extreme price moves&nbsp;and media coverage — will be left holding the bag.</p><p><blockquote>这显然是一个投机性的价格泡沫，具有庞氏骗局的一些特征。许多晚“上车”并以虚高的价格买入的小投资者——尤其是那些被极端价格走势和媒体报道吸引的小投资者——将背黑锅。</blockquote></p><p>And sooner or later, the stock price will likely come back to Earth to a level that can be supported by the fundamentals of the company. Before midday on Feb. 4, shares&nbsp;were trading near $70for the first time since Jan. 25.</p><p><blockquote>股价迟早会回到能够得到公司基本面支撑的水平。2月4日中午之前，股价自1月25日以来首次接近70美元。</blockquote></p><p>The problems begin when that doesn’t happen until too late.</p><p><blockquote>当为时已晚时，问题就开始了。</blockquote></p><p>Bubbles are made to pop</p><p><blockquote>泡泡被制造出来</blockquote></p><p>Financial markets are made up of people. People are imperfect, and so are markets. This means market prices are not always “right” — and it’s often hard to know what the “right” price is.</p><p><blockquote>金融市场是由人组成的。人是不完美的，市场也是。这意味着市场价格并不总是“正确”的——而且通常很难知道什么是“正确”的价格。</blockquote></p><p>That is true when it comes to the price bubbles in individual stocks like GameStop. But it’s also true on a much bigger scale, when it comes to a market as a whole.</p><p><blockquote>当涉及到游戏驿站等个股的价格泡沫时，情况确实如此。但当涉及到整个市场时，在更大的范围内也是如此。</blockquote></p><p>Price bubbles and crashes are good for neither Wall Street nor Main Street. When the dot-com bubble popped in 2000 —&nbsp;after prices of dozens of tech stocks soared exponentially in the late 1990s&nbsp;— an&nbsp;economic recession&nbsp;followed soon after. The bursting of a&nbsp;housing bubble in 2008&nbsp;triggered a global financial crisis and the Great Recession.</p><p><blockquote>价格泡沫和崩盘对华尔街和大街都没有好处。当2000年互联网泡沫破裂时——在20世纪90年代末数十只科技股的价格呈指数级飙升——经济衰退随之而来。2008年房地产泡沫的破裂引发了全球金融危机和大衰退。</blockquote></p><p>Too much momentum</p><p><blockquote>动力太大</blockquote></p><p>So markets fail sometimes, and we need sensible regulation and enforcement to make such failures less likely.</p><p><blockquote>因此，市场有时会失灵，我们需要明智的监管和执法来减少这种失灵的可能性。</blockquote></p><p>Taken in isolation, the GameStop craze is unlikely to trigger a disruption to the overall stock market, especially if its price continues to fall more in line with the company’s fundamental value. Unfortunately, this was not an isolated case. Nor was GameStop the first sign of problems.</p><p><blockquote>孤立地看，游戏驿站热潮不太可能引发整体股市的混乱，特别是如果其价格继续下跌，更符合公司的基本价值。不幸的是，这不是一个孤立的案例。游戏驿站也不是问题的第一个迹象。</blockquote></p><p>In recent days, Reddit users have also driven up the&nbsp;prices of silverSI00,0.61%&nbsp;and&nbsp;companies&nbsp;such as BlackBerryBB,+1.25%and movie theater giant AMC EntertainmentAMC,-20.96%.Popular trading apps like Robinhood&nbsp;have made trading easy, fun&nbsp;and basically free.</p><p><blockquote>最近几天，Reddit用户还推高了silverSI00(0.61%)以及BlackBerryBB(+1.25%)和电影院巨头AMC EntertainmentAMC(-20.96%)等公司的价格。Robinhood等流行的交易应用程序使交易变得轻松、有趣且基本上免费。</blockquote></p><p></p><p>The share price of TeslaTSLA,-0.55%,for example,&nbsp;skyrocketed 720% last year, in large part when investors bought the stock because it was already rising.

While I feel sorry for the many investors who will likely lose a lot of money, the stocks’ return to Earth is actually a good thing — if you want to avoid financial meltdown to the long list of crises the U.S. is facing.The reason has to do with what financial markets are — and what they are not — as well as what happens when prices of stocks and other securities become untethered from the fundamental value of the assets they’re meant to represent.As a finance professor who does research on how markets respond to new information, I believe it is important to maintain a close link between security prices and fundamentals. When that stops happening, a market collapse may be not far behind.Capital markets aren’t casinosSome have portrayed GameStopGME,-42.11%as a David vs. Goliath story. According to that narrative, the big guys on Wall Street have been getting rich gambling on the stock marketSPX,+1.09%for years. What’s the problem when the little guy gets a chance?The first thing to keep in mind is that markets aren’t a big casino, as some seem to believe. Their core purpose is to efficiently connect investors with companies and other organizations that will make the most productive use of their cash.Accurate market prices, meant to reflect a company’s expected profits and overall risk level, provide an important signal to investors whether they should hand over their money and what they should get in return. Companies like AppleAAPL,+2.58%and AmazonAMZN,+0.56%simply would not exist as we know them today without access to capital markets.The more jaundiced view of markets focuses on episodes when markets seemingly go crazy and on the speculative gambling behavior of some traders, such as hedge funds. The GameStop saga feeds into this storyline.But GameStop also illustrates what happens when stock prices don’t reflect reality.The GameStop bubbleGameStop fundamentals are, to put it mildly, lackluster.The company is a brick-and-mortar chain of video game stores. Most video game sales now take place as digital downloads. GameStop has been slow to adapt to this new reality. Its revenue peaked in 2012 at US$9.55 billion and had dropped by a third as of 2019.

Companies typically don’t raise capital via direct listings, although in December, the Securities and Exchange Commission approved a rule change proposed by the NYSE that allows a company to do so.\nRoblox won’t receive any proceeds from shareholders who sell their stock.Goldman Sachs,Morgan Stanley,andBank of Americaare advising Roblox on the deal.\nWhen Spotify went public on the NYSE in 2018, its reference price was the level of the last private secondary trades. In Slack’s 2019 listing, the reference point was closely informed by the volume-weighted average price of the recent secondary trading activity, but it wasn’t the exact average, the person said.\nUnlike the price range set by the underwriters of a traditional IPO—usually a reasonable indicator of the offer price—the reference price isn’t particularly useful as a gauge of where a directly listed stock will trade.\nBoth Palantir and Asana went public in September using direct listings. Palantir’sreference price was $7.25, but the stock opened on Sept. 30 at $10, hit a high of $11.42, and closed at $9.50. While Asana’sreference price was $21,it opened at $27, peaked at $29.96, and ended at $28.80.\nFounded in 2004,Robloxhosts child-friendly games focused on digital characters resembling Lego blocks. An average of 37.1 million people come to Roblox daily to play games.\nRoblox is not profitable. Losses widened to $253.3 million for 2020, compared with $71 million in 2019. Revenue rose nearly 82%, to $923.9 million. David Baszucki, Roblox’s co-founder, president, and CEO, has 70.1% of the total voting power, the prospectus said.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"RBLX":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":557,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":369056881,"gmtCreate":1613991645743,"gmtModify":1634551634001,"author":{"id":"3572441449814859","authorId":"3572441449814859","name":"TianZi81","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01d94807144591ff999444e12f4024ed","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3572441449814859","idStr":"3572441449814859"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wao","listText":"Wao","text":"Wao","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/369056881","repostId":"1171414372","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1171414372","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1613964674,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1171414372?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-02-22 11:31","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Warren Buffett’s Letter to Shareholders Is Coming.

Buffett declined to comment for this article.</p><p><blockquote>伯克希尔已经50多年没有支付股息了。为什么？巴菲特的观点是，一美元在他手中胜过一美元在股东手中。在巴菲特施展投资和收购魔法的过程中，情况一直如此，但近年来情况已不那么真实了。巴菲特拒绝对本文发表评论。</blockquote></p><p>In his 2012 annual letter, the CEO addressed the dividend issue, arguing that the better, and more tax-efficient, approach would be for investors who want income to sell a small portion of their Berkshire stock each year.</p><p><blockquote>在2012年年度信中，这位首席执行官谈到了股息问题，认为对于希望获得收入的投资者来说，更好、更节税的方法是每年出售一小部分伯克希尔股票。</blockquote></p><p>“First, dividends impose a specific cash-out policy upon all shareholders. If, say, 40% of earnings is the policy, those who wish 30% or 50% will be thwarted,” Buffett wrote. “Our 600,000 shareholders cover the waterfront in their desires for cash. It is safe to say, however, that a great many of them—perhaps even most of them—are in a net-savings mode and logically should prefer no payment at all.”</p><p><blockquote>“首先，股息对所有股东施加了特定的套现政策。比方说，如果政策是收益的40%，那些希望获得30%或50%的人将会受挫，”巴菲特写道。“我们的60万股东对现金的渴望无处不在。然而，可以肯定地说，他们中的许多人——甚至可能是大多数——都处于净储蓄模式，从逻辑上讲，他们应该宁愿根本不付款。”</blockquote></p><p>In 2014, Berkshire holder&nbsp;soverwhelmingly rejected a proxy proposalon dividends.</p><p><blockquote>2014年，伯克希尔股东以压倒性多数拒绝了股息代理提案。</blockquote></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d68e1f8f07f62b85a646a858fee9196c\" tg-width=\"956\" tg-height=\"571\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><blockquote></blockquote></p><p>Yet Berkshire’s cash has more than doubled since then, notes Edward Jones analyst James Shanahan, who favors a dividend. “A dividend is a good idea if only because the cash balance has grown so much,” he says, adding that significant repurchases at Berkshire are more difficult than at other big companies because there is less liquidity in its stock.</p><p><blockquote>然而，爱德华·琼斯(Edward Jones)分析师詹姆斯·沙纳汉(James Shanahan)指出，自那时以来，伯克希尔的现金增加了一倍多，他倾向于派息。他表示：“股息是一个好主意，因为现金余额增长了很多。”他补充说，伯克希尔哈撒韦公司的大规模回购比其他大公司更加困难，因为其股票的流动性较低。</blockquote></p><p>Berkshire’s class A shares have lagged behind theS&amp;P 500 indexby 40 percentage points since the end of 2018. They now look appealing at around $368,000, less than 1.3 times estimated year-end 2020 book value of around $287,000 and about 23 times projected 2021 earnings. Its class B shares trade around $243.</p><p><blockquote>自2018年底以来，伯克希尔A类股落后标准普尔500指数40个百分点。它们现在看起来很有吸引力，约为368,000美元，不到2020年底预计账面价值约287,000美元的1.3倍，约为2021年预计收益的23倍。其B类股交易价格约为243美元。</blockquote></p><p>Berkshire has traded at closer to 1.4 times book value in the past five years, and earnings are set to climb in 2021, thanks to businesses with exposure to an improving economy, like the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad.</p><p><blockquote>过去五年，伯克希尔哈撒韦公司的股价接近账面价值的1.4倍，由于伯灵顿北圣达菲铁路公司等经济好转的企业，2021年的盈利将攀升。</blockquote></p><p>Still, the past decade has been one of missed opportunities for Buffett—with the stake inApple(AAPL) the notable exception.While the recently disclosed big purchasesinVerizon Communications(VZ) andChevron(CVX) made waves, Berkshire was likely a net seller of about $9 billion of stocks last year. The company also failed to capitalize on the market turmoil and make any big acquisitions.</p><p><blockquote>尽管如此，过去十年仍然是巴菲特错失的机会之一——苹果公司（AAPL）的股份是一个明显的例外。尽管最近披露的对威瑞森通信(VZ)和雪佛龙(CVX)的大额收购引起了轰动，但伯克希尔去年可能净卖出了约90亿美元的股票。该公司也未能利用市场动荡进行任何重大收购。</blockquote></p><p>So what else might Berkshire shareholders hope to see in the annual letter?

All it would need is an announcement of the initiation of a dividend.A dividend of 2% would be a good start, representing about 40% of projected 2021 earnings. It would probably lift the stock by broadening the base of potential investors to those who want or need dividends.Berkshire has stepped up its share repurchases, buying back $15.7 billion of stock in the first three quarters of 2020, or about 3% of the shares outstanding. But with $146 billion in cash and projected earnings this year of $25 billion, it has the ability to pay a dividend as well as to buy back stock.“Berkshire should pay a dividend; this would increase the appeal of the shares to investors who want current income,” says David King, co-manager of the Columbia Flexible Capital Income fund. “Given Berkshire’s size and financial strength, the company is unique in paying no dividend and that should be changed.”Berkshire hasn’t paid a dividend for over 50 years. Why? Buffett’s view has been that a dollar in his hands is better than one in the hands of shareholders. That was long the case as Buffett worked his investment and acquisition magic, but it has been less true in recent years. Buffett declined to comment for this article.In his 2012 annual letter, the CEO addressed the dividend issue, arguing that the better, and more tax-efficient, approach would be for investors who want income to sell a small portion of their Berkshire stock each year.“First, dividends impose a specific cash-out policy upon all shareholders. If, say, 40% of earnings is the policy, those who wish 30% or 50% will be thwarted,” Buffett wrote. “Our 600,000 shareholders cover the waterfront in their desires for cash. It is safe to say, however, that a great many of them—perhaps even most of them—are in a net-savings mode and logically should prefer no payment at all.”In 2014, Berkshire holder soverwhelmingly rejected a proxy proposalon dividends.Yet Berkshire’s cash has more than doubled since then, notes Edward Jones analyst James Shanahan, who favors a dividend. “A dividend is a good idea if only because the cash balance has grown so much,” he says, adding that significant repurchases at Berkshire are more difficult than at other big companies because there is less liquidity in its stock.Berkshire’s class A shares have lagged behind theS&P 500 indexby 40 percentage points since the end of 2018. They now look appealing at around $368,000, less than 1.3 times estimated year-end 2020 book value of around $287,000 and about 23 times projected 2021 earnings. Its class B shares trade around $243.Berkshire has traded at closer to 1.4 times book value in the past five years, and earnings are set to climb in 2021, thanks to businesses with exposure to an improving economy, like the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad.Still, the past decade has been one of missed opportunities for Buffett—with the stake inApple(AAPL) the notable exception.While the recently disclosed big purchasesinVerizon Communications(VZ) andChevron(CVX) made waves, Berkshire was likely a net seller of about $9 billion of stocks last year. The company also failed to capitalize on the market turmoil and make any big acquisitions.So what else might Berkshire shareholders hope to see in the annual letter? More disclosure would help. It’s hard to know exactly how well Precision Castparts and other major Berkshire businesses are doing because the company doesn’t break out their results.There is also the question of succession, with Buffett turning 90 last August. Buffett could give up the CEO job to Berkshire’s vice chairman, Greg Abel, while remaining chairman and continuing to oversee Berkshire’s investment portfolio, including $270 billion of stocks.Berkshire hasn’t named an heir apparent to Buffett, but it’s widely assumed to be Abel, 58, who oversees Berkshire’s vast noninsurance operations, including Burlington Northern.That would give Abel important experience while Buffett is still on the scene, allowing Abel to take new steps, like potentially holding Berkshire’s first investor day.And whether it is Abel or someone else, a dividend would take pressure off Buffett’s successor to reinvest Berkshire’s earnings torrent and align the conglomerate with most other giant companies.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"BRK.A":0.9,"BRK.B":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":281,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":350904265,"gmtCreate":1616145686257,"gmtModify":1634527013959,"author":{"id":"3572441449814859","authorId":"3572441449814859","name":"TianZi81","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01d94807144591ff999444e12f4024ed","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3572441449814859","idStr":"3572441449814859"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Man!!!!","listText":"Man!!!!","text":"Man!!!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/350904265","repostId":"1163396749","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":400,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":387956740,"gmtCreate":1613713070680,"gmtModify":1634552535874,"author":{"id":"3572441449814859","authorId":"3572441449814859","name":"TianZi81","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01d94807144591ff999444e12f4024ed","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3572441449814859","idStr":"3572441449814859"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wao","listText":"Wao","text":"Wao","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/387956740","repostId":"1103921295","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1103921295","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1613706165,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1103921295?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-02-19 11:42","market":"us","language":"en","title":"GameStop hearing challenges assumptions about rookie investors<blockquote>游戏驿站听证会挑战有关新手投资者的假设</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1103921295","media":"Marketwatch","summary":"Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev discussed average account sizes and user demographics during a congressiona","content":"<p>  <b>Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev discussed average account sizes and user demographics during a congressional hearing on GameStop’s rise and fall.</b>  YOLO?

As the hearing continued, he repeated that point under lawmaker questions.</p><p><blockquote>Robinhood首席执行官弗拉德·特涅夫(Vlad Tenev)表示：“与一些极具误导性和高度不知情的报道相反，我们看到证据表明我们的大多数客户都在进行长期投资。”Robinhood是一个受欢迎的交易平台，因暂时限制GameStopGME的交易而引起了大规模关注，-11.43%，AMC EntertainmentAMC，-0.72%和其他几家公司。随着听证会的继续，他在议员的提问下重复了这一点。</blockquote></p><p> “What we see is generally not consistent with popular memes suggesting that most of our brokerage customers are unsophisticated day traders taking inordinate risks with large sums of money on complex financial products,”Tenev wrote in prepared testimony submitted ahead of the hearing,pushing back on the idea that his companyencouraged reckless tradingon a platform with 13 million users.</p><p><blockquote>特涅夫在听证会前提交的准备好的证词中写道：“我们所看到的通常与流行的模因不一致，这些模因表明我们的大多数经纪客户都是不成熟的日内交易者，在复杂的金融产品上投入大量资金承担了过度的风险。”他的公司鼓励在一个拥有1300万用户的平台上进行鲁莽交易的想法。</blockquote></p><p> Just 2% of Robinhood users qualified as “pattern day traders” who made four or more trades within five business days, he said. Thirteen percent traded basic options contracts, which can be higher risk, higher reward than straight-ahead buying or selling.</p><p><blockquote>他说，只有2%的Robinhood用户符合“模式日内交易者”的资格，他们在五个工作日内进行了四笔或更多交易。13%的人交易基本期权合约，这可能比直接买入或卖出风险更高，回报更高。</blockquote></p><p> In the face of some pointed questions, he also insisted Robinhood isn’t trying to turn the user experience into a game. “We know investing is serious and that’s why most of our customers are buy and hold,” he said.</p><p><blockquote>面对一些尖锐的问题，他还坚称Robinhood并没有试图将用户体验变成游戏。“我们知道投资是严肃的，这就是为什么我们的大多数客户都是买入并持有，”他说。</blockquote></p><p> (Before the GameStop saga, Massachusetts state regulators filed a complaint against Robinhood for allegedly making trading seem too fun until loses occur. The company previously said itdisputes the allegation.)</p><p><blockquote>（在游戏驿站事件发生之前，马萨诸塞州监管机构对Robinhood提起诉讼，指控其让交易看起来太有趣，直到发生损失。该公司此前表示对这一指控提出异议。）</blockquote></p><p> Tenev and lawmakershave sparredon what Robinhood should and shouldn’t have done during the GameStop saga. GameStop shares once traded at a high point of $483. By Thursday’s market close, GameStop shares were $40.69.</p><p><blockquote>特涅夫和立法者就罗宾汉在游戏驿站传奇中应该做什么和不应该做什么进行了争论。游戏驿站股价一度交易到483美元的高点。截至周四收盘，游戏驿站股价为40.69美元。</blockquote></p><p> But either way, Tenev’s testimony gave an interesting peek at who the newest retail investors are and how much money they are pouring into the market. After all, retail investors were already increasingly entering the stock market before the GameStop drama started.</p><p><blockquote>但不管怎样，特涅夫的证词让我们有趣地了解了谁是最新的散户投资者以及他们向市场投入了多少资金。毕竟，在游戏驿站大戏开始之前，散户投资者就已经越来越多地进入股市。</blockquote></p><p> Fifty-five percent of Americans directly own stock, according to aGallup surveylast year, while 32% of 18- to 29-year-olds said they owned stock.</p><p><blockquote>根据aGallup去年的调查，55%的美国人直接拥有股票，而18至29岁的人中有32%表示他们拥有股票。</blockquote></p><p> The median age of Robinhood investors is 31 and half of users say they are first-time investors. The median account size is about $240, according to Tenev’s statement, and the average account size is about $5,000.</p><p><blockquote>Robinhood投资者的平均年龄为31岁，一半的用户表示他们是首次投资者。根据Tenev的声明，账户规模中位数约为240美元，平均账户规模约为5,000美元。</blockquote></p><p> The fact that 13% of Robinhood users are trading options gives some advocates pause. Barbara Roper, director of investor protection at the Consumer Federation of America,saidthat “strikes us as a pretty high percentage when you consider the characteristics of Robinhood’s customer base (disproportionately young, first-time investors with small accounts).”</p><p><blockquote>13%的Robinhood用户正在交易期权，这一事实让一些倡导者犹豫了。美国消费者联合会投资者保护主任芭芭拉·罗珀(Barbara Roper)表示，“考虑到Robinhood客户群的特征（不成比例的年轻、账户较小的首次投资者），我们发现这一比例相当高。”</blockquote></p><p> Robinhood investors also tend to be a slightly more racially diverse crowd, according to Tenev’s testimony. Nine percent of users are Black, compared to 3% at other firms and 16% are Hispanic, versus 7% at other firms, according to Tenev’s statement.</p><p><blockquote>根据特涅夫的证词，Robinhood投资者的种族也往往更加多元化。根据Tenev的声明，9%的用户是黑人，而其他公司的这一比例为3%；16%是西班牙裔，而其他公司的这一比例为7%。</blockquote></p><p> “Retail investors making up this new surge are different,” testified Jennifer Schulp, the Cato Institute’s director of financial regulation studies.</p><p><blockquote>卡托研究所金融监管研究主任詹妮弗·舒尔普(Jennifer Schulp)表示：“构成这一新浪潮的散户投资者有所不同。”</blockquote></p><p> Retail investors are nicknamed as“dumb money”on Wall Street, Schulp said. “I think it’s insulting. I think the term needs to go out the window. I think the GameStop situation is proof the retail investors are revolutionizing the market …. I think the retail investors here are learning by doing, which is one of the best ways to learn.”</p><p><blockquote>舒尔普说，散户投资者在华尔街被戏称为“傻钱”。“我认为这是一种侮辱。我认为这个词需要被抛弃。我认为游戏驿站的情况证明散户投资者正在彻底改变市场……我认为这里的散户投资者正在边做边学，这是最好的学习方式之一。”</blockquote></p><p> She pointed to research from theFINRA Investor Education Foundationreleased earlier this month digging into the demographics and account balances of new retail investors.</p><p><blockquote>她指出，FINRA投资者教育基金会本月早些时候发布的研究深入研究了新散户投资者的人口统计数据和账户余额。</blockquote></p><p> One-third of new investors who opened a taxable investment account for the first time in 2020 said they had account balances of less than $500, versus 16% of experienced investors. Twenty-three percent of new investors had account balances up to $2,000. Twenty percent of experienced investors had account balances up to $2,000.</p><p><blockquote>2020年首次开设应税投资账户的新投资者中有三分之一表示，他们的账户余额低于500美元，而经验丰富的投资者这一比例为16%。23%的新投资者的账户余额高达2,000美元。20%有经验的投资者的账户余额高达2,000美元。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> The survey found a more racially diverse set of new investors, with 17% of new investors being Black. Seven percent of experienced investors are Black, the poll said.</p><p><blockquote>调查发现，新投资者的种族更加多元化，17%的新投资者是黑人。调查显示，有经验的投资者中有7%是黑人。</blockquote></p><p> As the hearing continued, some lawmakers questioned whether more guardrails need to be in place, while others said lawmakers shouldn’t condescend to retail investors and assume they know best.</p><p><blockquote>随着听证会的继续，一些议员质疑是否需要设置更多护栏，而另一些议员则表示，议员不应该屈尊于散户投资者，并认为他们最了解。</blockquote></p><p> “Many Americans feel that the system is stacked against them and no matter what, Wall Street always wins,” said Rep. Maxine Waters, who chairs the House Financial Services Committee. “In this instance, many retail investors appeared motivated by a desire to beat Wall Street at its own game and given the losses that many retail investors have sustained as a result of volatility in the system, there are many whose beliefs that the system is rigged against them has been reinforced.”</p><p><blockquote>众议院金融服务委员会主席、众议员Maxine Waters说，“很多美国人觉得这个体系与他们形成了对抗，不管怎么样，华尔街总会赢。”“在这种情况下，许多散户投资者似乎是出于在华尔街自己的游戏中击败华尔街的愿望，考虑到许多散户投资者因系统波动而遭受的损失，许多人认为该系统是针对他们的操纵行为得到了加强。”</blockquote></p><p> The GameStop saga was a “fundamental change,” said Rep. Patrick McHenry, the ranking Republican on the committee. The swell in trading was propelled by social media and a wealth of new information at investors’ fingertips.</p><p><blockquote>该委员会资深共和党众议员Patrick McHenry表示，游戏驿站事件是一个“根本性的变化”。社交媒体和投资者唾手可得的大量新信息推动了交易的激增。</blockquote></p><p> “I think if we’ve learned anything from these past few weeks, it’s that these average everyday investors are pretty darn sophisticated,” McHenry said. “There is wisdom to the crowd.”</p><p><blockquote>麦克亨利说：“我认为，如果说我们从过去几周中学到了什么的话，那就是这些普通的日常投资者非常老练。”“群众有智慧。”</blockquote></p><p> The government needs to make it easier for everyday investors to buy into the market, he said. “Instead of shutting the American public out through new regulations, new forms of taxation or so-called protections, let’s use this opprotunity to side with them.”</p><p><blockquote>他说，政府需要让普通投资者更容易买入市场。“与其通过新法规、新形式的税收或所谓的保护措施将美国公众拒之门外，不如利用这个机会站在他们一边。”</blockquote></p><p> One of the witnesses was Keith Gill, a 34-year-old independent investor with online handles like “Roaring Kitty” who turned his GameStop investment into millions. He made all his investment decisions based on publicly-availabile information, he told Congress.</p><p><blockquote>目击者之一是基思·吉尔(Keith Gill)，他是一位34岁的独立投资者，拥有“咆哮的小猫”等在线账号，他将自己在游戏驿站的投资变成了数百万美元。他告诉国会，他所有的投资决策都是根据公开信息做出的。</blockquote></p><p> “I would be the first to acknowledge that investing in stocks and options is incredibly risky, and it’s so important for people to do their own thorough research before investing,” Gill said. “Folks should be able to freely express their views on a stock, and they should be able to buy or not buy a stock based on those views.”</p><p><blockquote>吉尔说：“我是第一个承认投资股票和期权风险极高的人，人们在投资前进行彻底的研究非常重要。”“人们应该能够自由表达他们对股票的看法，并且他们应该能够根据这些观点购买或不购买股票。”</blockquote></p><p> GameStop shares are up nearly 116% year-to-date.

As the hearing continued, he repeated that point under lawmaker questions.</p><p><blockquote>Robinhood首席执行官弗拉德·特涅夫(Vlad Tenev)表示：“与一些极具误导性和高度不知情的报道相反，我们看到证据表明我们的大多数客户都在进行长期投资。”Robinhood是一个受欢迎的交易平台，因暂时限制GameStopGME的交易而引起了大规模关注，-11.43%，AMC EntertainmentAMC，-0.72%和其他几家公司。随着听证会的继续，他在议员的提问下重复了这一点。</blockquote></p><p> “What we see is generally not consistent with popular memes suggesting that most of our brokerage customers are unsophisticated day traders taking inordinate risks with large sums of money on complex financial products,”Tenev wrote in prepared testimony submitted ahead of the hearing,pushing back on the idea that his companyencouraged reckless tradingon a platform with 13 million users.</p><p><blockquote>特涅夫在听证会前提交的准备好的证词中写道：“我们所看到的通常与流行的模因不一致，这些模因表明我们的大多数经纪客户都是不成熟的日内交易者，在复杂的金融产品上投入大量资金承担了过度的风险。”他的公司鼓励在一个拥有1300万用户的平台上进行鲁莽交易的想法。</blockquote></p><p> Just 2% of Robinhood users qualified as “pattern day traders” who made four or more trades within five business days, he said. Thirteen percent traded basic options contracts, which can be higher risk, higher reward than straight-ahead buying or selling.</p><p><blockquote>他说，只有2%的Robinhood用户符合“模式日内交易者”的资格，他们在五个工作日内进行了四笔或更多交易。13%的人交易基本期权合约，这可能比直接买入或卖出风险更高，回报更高。</blockquote></p><p> In the face of some pointed questions, he also insisted Robinhood isn’t trying to turn the user experience into a game. “We know investing is serious and that’s why most of our customers are buy and hold,” he said.</p><p><blockquote>面对一些尖锐的问题，他还坚称Robinhood并没有试图将用户体验变成游戏。“我们知道投资是严肃的，这就是为什么我们的大多数客户都是买入并持有，”他说。</blockquote></p><p> (Before the GameStop saga, Massachusetts state regulators filed a complaint against Robinhood for allegedly making trading seem too fun until loses occur.

After all, retail investors were already increasingly entering the stock market before the GameStop drama started.</p><p><blockquote>但不管怎样，特涅夫的证词让我们有趣地了解了谁是最新的散户投资者以及他们向市场投入了多少资金。毕竟，在游戏驿站大戏开始之前，散户投资者就已经越来越多地进入股市。</blockquote></p><p> Fifty-five percent of Americans directly own stock, according to aGallup surveylast year, while 32% of 18- to 29-year-olds said they owned stock.</p><p><blockquote>根据aGallup去年的调查，55%的美国人直接拥有股票，而18至29岁的人中有32%表示他们拥有股票。</blockquote></p><p> The median age of Robinhood investors is 31 and half of users say they are first-time investors.

Mogo saw massive month-over-month jumps of 141% in new Bitcoin accounts added and 323% in Bitcoin transaction volume in January. Likewise, MOGO stock is currently up by over 160% year-to-date. Aside from Bitcoin-related tailwinds, the company has also been hard at work expanding its financial portfolio.</p><p><blockquote>让我们起步的是加拿大金融科技公司Mogo。它提供广泛的金融服务，包括个人贷款、抵押贷款、Visa预付卡和信用评分查看。更重要的是，该公司还促进了比特币交易。在过去的一个月里，这项特殊的服务随着加密货币的价格一起爆炸式增长。Mogo 1月份新增比特币账户环比大幅增长141%，比特币交易量环比增长323%。同样，MOGO股价今年迄今已上涨超过160%。除了与比特币相关的有利因素外，该公司还一直在努力扩大其金融投资组合。</blockquote></p><p> For starters, Mogo acquired leading digital payments solutions provider Carta Worldwide, over two weeks ago. This move expanded Mogo’s addressable market by entering the global $2.5 trillion payments market. Following that, the company expanded into Japan last week via Carta. According to Mogo, this move was in support of the TransferWise multi-currency debit card launch in the country. With this move, Mogo continues to expand its market reach globally and seems eager to make the most of its newly acquired subsidiary. With the company firing on all cylinders now, will you be watching MOGO stock?</p><p><blockquote>首先，Mogo在两周前收购了领先的数字支付解决方案提供商Carta Worldwide。此举通过进入全球2.5万亿美元的支付市场扩大了Mogo的潜在市场。此后，该公司上周通过Carta扩展到日本。据Mogo称，此举是为了支持TransferWise多币种借记卡在该国的推出。通过这一举措，Mogo继续扩大其全球市场范围，并似乎渴望充分利用其新收购的子公司。随着该公司现在全力以赴，您会关注MOGO股票吗？</blockquote></p><p> PayPal Holdings Inc.</p><p><blockquote>PayPal控股公司。</blockquote></p><p> Following that, we will be looking at fintech giant, PayPal. Just like our other entries on this list, the company does facilitate cryptocurrency transactions for its clients. Last week, PayPal reported record figures across the board. For its fourth quarter, the company saw a total payment volume (TPV) of $277 billion, a 39% increase year-over-year. Furthermore, the company’s earnings per share more than tripled over the same time as well. In detail, TPVs across its merchant services and Venmo app grew by 42% and 60% respectively. With PayPal riding both Bitcoin and pandemic tailwinds, PYPL stock continues to soar to greater heights. It has gained by over 230% since the March lows and closed yesterday at a record high. Investors may be wondering if it still has room to run moving forward.</p><p><blockquote>接下来，我们将关注金融科技巨头PayPal。就像我们在这个列表中的其他条目一样，该公司确实为其客户促进了加密货币交易。上周，PayPal公布了全面创纪录的数据。第四季度，该公司支付总额(TPV)为2770亿美元，同比增长39%。此外，该公司的每股收益同期也增长了两倍多。具体而言，其商户服务和Venmo应用程序的TPV分别增长了42%和60%。随着PayPal乘着比特币和大流行的东风，PYPL股价继续飙升至更高的高度。自3月份低点以来，该股已上涨超过230%，昨天收于历史新高。投资者可能想知道它是否还有前进的空间。</blockquote></p><p> For one thing, the company does not seem to be slowing down anytime soon. Yesterday, it announced a new collaboration with global commerce solutions provider Digital River (DR). To summarize, PayPal now has a new ‘pay later’ option available to U.S. clients on DR’s e-commerce platform.<i>The “Pay in 4</i>” feature will allow customers to pay for items priced from $30 to $600 across four interest-free payments. Simultaneously, merchants get paid upfront at no additional cost to the customer. As PayPal continues to make waves in the fintech space, could PYPL stock continue to flourish this year? You tell me.</p><p><blockquote>一方面，该公司似乎不会很快放缓。昨天，它宣布了与全球商业解决方案提供商Digital River(DR)的新合作。总而言之，PayPal现在在DR的电子商务平台上为美国客户提供了一个新的“稍后付款”选项。<i>“按4支付”</i>“该功能将允许客户通过四次免息付款支付价格从30美元到600美元的商品。同时，商家无需向客户支付额外费用即可获得预付款。随着PayPal继续在金融科技领域掀起波澜，PYPL股票今年能否继续蓬勃发展？你告诉我。</blockquote></p><p> Square Inc.</p><p><blockquote>广场公司。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> Another top fintech company on the radar now would be Square. Aside from its Bitcoin-related services, the leading fintech player does bring a lot to the table. Whether it is financial solutions, merchant services, or mobile payment, Square’s offerings compete with the best in the field. For the uninitiated, the company markets software and hardware payments products to businesses of all sizes. At the same time, its consumer-focused digital payment ecosystem, Cash App, has also seen mind-blowing growth in the past year. Square reported having 30 million monthly active users on the app which generated over $2 billion in revenue in its recent quarter. Seasoned investors would be familiar with the meteoric rise of the company. Indeed, SQ stock has and continues to impress with gains of over 200% in the past year. With the current focus on fintech, could investors continue to find more value in SQ stock?</p><p><blockquote>现在另一家备受关注的顶级金融科技公司是Square。除了与比特币相关的服务之外，这家领先的金融科技公司确实带来了很多东西。无论是金融解决方案、商家服务还是移动支付，Square的产品都能与该领域的佼佼者竞争。对于门外汉来说，该公司向各种规模的企业销售软件和硬件支付产品。与此同时，其以消费者为中心的数字支付生态系统Cash App在过去一年中也出现了令人兴奋的增长。Square报告称，该应用程序每月有3000万活跃用户，最近一个季度的收入超过20亿美元。经验丰富的投资者会熟悉该公司的迅速崛起。事实上，SQ股票在过去一年中已经并将继续令人印象深刻，涨幅超过200%。鉴于目前对金融科技的关注，投资者能否继续在SQ股票中发现更多价值？</blockquote></p><p> Well, it has been posting phenomenal figures on the business side of things. In its third-quarter fiscal reported in November, it saw a year-over-year surge of 139% in total revenue and 246% in cash on hand. Specifically, Cash App’s gross profit skyrocketed by 212% year-over-year. All things considered, will you be watching SQ stock ahead of Square’s upcomingearnings callon February 23?</p><p><blockquote>嗯，它在商业方面发布了惊人的数据。在11月份公布的第三季度财报中，该公司总收入同比增长139%，手头现金同比增长246%。具体来看，Cash App毛利同比暴涨212%。综合考虑，您会在Square即将于2月23日发布财报之前关注SQ股票吗？</blockquote></p><p> Green Dot Corporation</p><p><blockquote>绿点公司</blockquote></p><p> Undoubtedly, Green Dot is a fintech industry-veteran that should not be overlooked. As it stands, Green Dot is the world’s largest prepaid debit card company by market capitalization. The company also boasts an impressive list of clients, to say the least. Its fintech partners include but are not limited to, Google (NASDAQ: GOOGL), Uber (NYSE: UBER), and Walmart (NYSE: WMT). Equally impressive is GDOT stock’s growth of over 220% since the March selloffs. With Green Dot slated to release its fourth-quarter earnings on February 22, I can see investors watching GDOT stock closely.</p><p><blockquote>毫无疑问，绿点是一位不容忽视的金融科技行业资深人士。目前，绿点是全球市值最大的预付借记卡公司。至少可以说，该公司还拥有令人印象深刻的客户名单。其金融科技合作伙伴包括但不限于谷歌（纳斯达克股票代码：GOOGL）、优步（纽约证券交易所股票代码：UBER）和沃尔玛（纽约证券交易所股票代码：WMT）。同样令人印象深刻的是，自3月份抛售以来，GDOT股票增长了220%以上。随着Green Dot定于2月22日发布第四季度收益，我可以看到投资者正在密切关注GDOT股票。</blockquote></p><p> For the most part, the company has been hard at work maintaining its current momentum. Last month, the company launched a new mobile bank focused on addressing the two in three Americans “<i>living from paycheck to paycheck</i>”. Through this, Green Dot is leveraging its rich industry experience to provide affordable banking solutions for clients in need. In the long run, this could play out well for Green Dot as it engages consumers amidst these troubling times. Moreover, the company appointed a new CTO in Gyorgy Tomso last week. CEO Dan Henry said, “<i>Gyorgy is a fintech veteran whose deep experience leading technology strategy for financial services companies is going to be instrumental in Green Dot’s growth as a leading fintech.</i>” Has all this convinced you to add GDOT to your watchlist?</p><p><blockquote>在很大程度上，该公司一直在努力保持目前的势头。上个月，该公司推出了一家新的移动银行，专注于解决三分之二美国人的问题”<i>靠薪水生活</i>”.通过这一点，绿点正在利用其丰富的行业经验为有需要的客户提供负担得起的银行解决方案。从长远来看，这对绿点来说可能会很好，因为它在这个困难时期吸引了消费者。此外，该公司上周任命了一位新的CTO Gyorgy Tomso。首席执行官丹·亨利说：“<i>Gyorgy是一位金融科技资深人士，他在金融服务公司领先技术战略方面的丰富经验将有助于Green Dot作为领先金融科技公司的发展。</i>“这一切是否说服您将GDOT添加到您的观察列表中？</blockquote></p><p></p>","source":"lsy1603171495471","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Best Stocks To Buy For 2021? 4 Fintech Stocks To Watch<blockquote>2021年最值得购买的股票？4只值得关注的金融科技股</blockquote></title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nBest Stocks To Buy For 2021? 4 Fintech Stocks To Watch<blockquote>2021年最值得购买的股票？4只值得关注的金融科技股</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<p class=\"head\">\n<strong class=\"h-name small\">Nasdaq</strong><span class=\"h-time small\">2021-02-11 14:17</span>\n</p>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p>If you’re caught up on the latestBitcoin news, you likely know thatfintech stocksare in the hot seat right now.

Simultaneously, merchants get paid upfront at no additional cost to the customer. As PayPal continues to make waves in the fintech space, could PYPL stock continue to flourish this year? You tell me.\nSquare Inc.\nAnother top fintech company on the radar now would be Square. Aside from its Bitcoin-related services, the leading fintech player does bring a lot to the table. Whether it is financial solutions, merchant services, or mobile payment, Square’s offerings compete with the best in the field. For the uninitiated, the company markets software and hardware payments products to businesses of all sizes. At the same time, its consumer-focused digital payment ecosystem, Cash App, has also seen mind-blowing growth in the past year. Square reported having 30 million monthly active users on the app which generated over $2 billion in revenue in its recent quarter. Seasoned investors would be familiar with the meteoric rise of the company. Indeed, SQ stock has and continues to impress with gains of over 200% in the past year. With the current focus on fintech, could investors continue to find more value in SQ stock?\nWell, it has been posting phenomenal figures on the business side of things. In its third-quarter fiscal reported in November, it saw a year-over-year surge of 139% in total revenue and 246% in cash on hand. Specifically, Cash App’s gross profit skyrocketed by 212% year-over-year. All things considered, will you be watching SQ stock ahead of Square’s upcomingearnings callon February 23?\nGreen Dot Corporation\nUndoubtedly, Green Dot is a fintech industry-veteran that should not be overlooked. As it stands, Green Dot is the world’s largest prepaid debit card company by market capitalization. The company also boasts an impressive list of clients, to say the least. Its fintech partners include but are not limited to, Google (NASDAQ: GOOGL), Uber (NYSE: UBER), and Walmart (NYSE: WMT). Equally impressive is GDOT stock’s growth of over 220% since the March selloffs. With Green Dot slated to release its fourth-quarter earnings on February 22, I can see investors watching GDOT stock closely.\nFor the most part, the company has been hard at work maintaining its current momentum. Last month, the company launched a new mobile bank focused on addressing the two in three Americans “living from paycheck to paycheck”. Through this, Green Dot is leveraging its rich industry experience to provide affordable banking solutions for clients in need. In the long run, this could play out well for Green Dot as it engages consumers amidst these troubling times. Moreover, the company appointed a new CTO in Gyorgy Tomso last week. CEO Dan Henry said, “Gyorgy is a fintech veteran whose deep experience leading technology strategy for financial services companies is going to be instrumental in Green Dot’s growth as a leading fintech.” Has all this convinced you to add GDOT to your watchlist?","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".IXIC":0.9,".SPX":0.9,"SPY":0.9,".DJI":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":341,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":163243553,"gmtCreate":1623887285272,"gmtModify":1634026517951,"author":{"id":"3572441449814859","authorId":"3572441449814859","name":"TianZi81","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01d94807144591ff999444e12f4024ed","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3572441449814859","idStr":"3572441449814859"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment.. thanks","listText":"Like and comment.. thanks","text":"Like and comment.. thanks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/163243553","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2293,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":387801794,"gmtCreate":1613732770918,"gmtModify":1634552459754,"author":{"id":"3572441449814859","authorId":"3572441449814859","name":"TianZi81","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01d94807144591ff999444e12f4024ed","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3572441449814859","idStr":"3572441449814859"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Daily task.. please response to my comments","listText":"Daily task.. please response to my comments","text":"Daily task.. please response to my comments","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/387801794","repostId":"1194607255","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":169,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":382223302,"gmtCreate":1613454580906,"gmtModify":1634553612101,"author":{"id":"3572441449814859","authorId":"3572441449814859","name":"TianZi81","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01d94807144591ff999444e12f4024ed","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3572441449814859","idStr":"3572441449814859"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hmmm...","listText":"Hmmm...","text":"Hmmm...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/382223302","repostId":"1143750442","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1143750442","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1613454014,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1143750442?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-02-16 13:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The Great SPAC Debate: Are They In A Bubble?<blockquote>SPAC大辩论：他们在泡沫中吗？</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1143750442","media":"Benzinga","summary":"The soaring valuations handed out to newly public companies in the initial public offering boom has ","content":"<p>The soaring valuations handed out to newly public companies in the initial public offering boom has led some to believe there's an IPO bubble.

He said the comparison depends on how IPOs are defined. In a typical year in the 1990s, over 300 companies went public, but 165 went public last year, excluding SPACs and foreign companies using ADRs. In the 1990s, SPACs were almost unheard of, but in 2020, there were 248 SPAC IPOs. Including SPACs, there were more than 400 IPOs last year, which is the highest number in two decades.</p><p><blockquote>内森问里特，最近的IPO热潮与过去的周期相比如何。他表示，这种比较取决于IPO的定义。在20世纪90年代的典型年份，有300多家公司上市，但去年有165家公司上市，这还不包括SPAC和使用ADR的外国公司。上世纪90年代，SPAC几乎闻所未闻，但2020年，SPAC IPO数量达到248起。包括SPAC在内，去年有400多起IPO，这是二十年来的最高数字。</blockquote></p><p> Another big difference between the 1990s and the current IPO boom is the fact that many tech companies have been waiting to go public, relying on venture capital instead. However, that trend could be changing, and Ritter said many companies have gotten more motivated to go public due to the high valuations the IPO market has attracted.</p><p><blockquote>20世纪90年代与当前IPO热潮之间的另一个巨大区别是，许多科技公司一直在等待上市，而是依赖风险投资。然而，这种趋势可能正在改变，里特表示，由于IPO市场吸引了高估值，许多公司更有动力上市。</blockquote></p><p> David Kostin and Cormac Conners of Goldman Sachs also talked about 2020 as the year of the SPAC. They highlighted another reason SPACs got so hot last year, which is that SPAC sponsors shifted their focus from value to growth. Between 2010 and 2019, over half of SPAC acquisitions were in the industrials, financials and energy sectors, but last year, 60% of the SPAC mergers completed were in tech, consumer discretionary and healthcare.</p><p><blockquote>高盛的David Kostin和Cormac Conners也谈到2020年是SPAC年。他们强调了SPAC去年如此火爆的另一个原因，即SPAC发起人将重点从价值转向增长。2010年至2019年间，超过一半的SPAC收购发生在工业、金融和能源领域，但去年，60%完成的SPAC合并发生在科技、非必需消费品和医疗保健领域。</blockquote></p><p> The&nbsp;SPAC market&nbsp;doesn't show any signs of slowing down, so if it is in a bubble, it hasn't reached its popping point yet. Goldman Sachs noted that in the first three weeks of this year, 56 SPACs were brought to market in the U.S.</p><p><blockquote>SPAC市场没有任何放缓的迹象，因此如果它处于泡沫之中，它还没有达到破裂点。高盛指出，今年前三周，有56家SPAC在美国上市。</blockquote></p><p></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>The Great SPAC Debate: Are They In A Bubble?<blockquote>SPAC大辩论：他们在泡沫中吗？</blockquote></title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nThe Great SPAC Debate: Are They In A Bubble?<blockquote>SPAC大辩论：他们在泡沫中吗？</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<div class=\"head\" \">\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Benzinga </p>\n<p class=\"h-time smaller\">2021-02-16 13:40</p>\n</div>\n</div>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p>The soaring valuations handed out to newly public companies in the initial public offering boom has led some to believe there's an IPO bubble.

Between 2010 and 2019, over half of SPAC acquisitions were in the industrials, financials and energy sectors, but last year, 60% of the SPAC mergers completed were in tech, consumer discretionary and healthcare.\nThe SPAC market doesn't show any signs of slowing down, so if it is in a bubble, it hasn't reached its popping point yet. Goldman Sachs noted that in the first three weeks of this year, 56 SPACs were brought to market in the U.S.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".SPX":0.9,".IXIC":0.9,".DJI":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":244,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":386439359,"gmtCreate":1613232066271,"gmtModify":1631886434676,"author":{"id":"3572441449814859","authorId":"3572441449814859","name":"TianZi81","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01d94807144591ff999444e12f4024ed","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3572441449814859","idStr":"3572441449814859"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hmmm...

While I feel sorry for the many investors who will likely lose a lot of money, the stocks’ return to Earth is actually a good thing — if you want to avoid financial meltdown to the long list of crises the U.S. is facing.The reason has to do with what financial markets are — and what they are not — as well as what happens when prices of stocks and other securities become untethered from the fundamental value of the assets they’re meant to represent.As a finance professor who does research on how markets respond to new information, I believe it is important to maintain a close link between security prices and fundamentals. When that stops happening, a market collapse may be not far behind.Capital markets aren’t casinosSome have portrayed GameStopGME,-42.11%as a David vs. Goliath story. According to that narrative, the big guys on Wall Street have been getting rich gambling on the stock marketSPX,+1.09%for years. What’s the problem when the little guy gets a chance?The first thing to keep in mind is that markets aren’t a big casino, as some seem to believe. Their core purpose is to efficiently connect investors with companies and other organizations that will make the most productive use of their cash.Accurate market prices, meant to reflect a company’s expected profits and overall risk level, provide an important signal to investors whether they should hand over their money and what they should get in return. Companies like AppleAAPL,+2.58%and AmazonAMZN,+0.56%simply would not exist as we know them today without access to capital markets.The more jaundiced view of markets focuses on episodes when markets seemingly go crazy and on the speculative gambling behavior of some traders, such as hedge funds. The GameStop saga feeds into this storyline.But GameStop also illustrates what happens when stock prices don’t reflect reality.The GameStop bubbleGameStop fundamentals are, to put it mildly, lackluster.The company is a brick-and-mortar chain of video game stores. Most video game sales now take place as digital downloads. GameStop has been slow to adapt to this new reality. Its revenue peaked in 2012 at US$9.55 billion and had dropped by a third as of 2019. It hasn’t earned a profit since 2017. Put simply, it is a money-losing company in a competitive and quickly changing industry.The recent speculative frenzy, however, increased the GameStop stock price from under $20 in early January to as high as $483 in a little over two weeks, driven by retail investors on Reddit who coordinated their buying to harm hedge funds, costing the professionals billions of dollars.It is clearly a speculative price bubble and has some characteristics of a Ponzi scheme. Many small investors who “get on the train” late and buy at the inflated prices — especially those attracted by the extreme price moves and media coverage — will be left holding the bag.And sooner or later, the stock price will likely come back to Earth to a level that can be supported by the fundamentals of the company. Before midday on Feb. 4, shares were trading near $70for the first time since Jan. 25.The problems begin when that doesn’t happen until too late.Bubbles are made to popFinancial markets are made up of people. People are imperfect, and so are markets. This means market prices are not always “right” — and it’s often hard to know what the “right” price is.That is true when it comes to the price bubbles in individual stocks like GameStop. But it’s also true on a much bigger scale, when it comes to a market as a whole.Price bubbles and crashes are good for neither Wall Street nor Main Street. When the dot-com bubble popped in 2000 — after prices of dozens of tech stocks soared exponentially in the late 1990s — an economic recession followed soon after. The bursting of a housing bubble in 2008 triggered a global financial crisis and the Great Recession.Too much momentumSo markets fail sometimes, and we need sensible regulation and enforcement to make such failures less likely.Taken in isolation, the GameStop craze is unlikely to trigger a disruption to the overall stock market, especially if its price continues to fall more in line with the company’s fundamental value. Unfortunately, this was not an isolated case. Nor was GameStop the first sign of problems.In recent days, Reddit users have also driven up the prices of silverSI00,0.61% and companies such as BlackBerryBB,+1.25%and movie theater giant AMC EntertainmentAMC,-20.96%.Popular trading apps like Robinhood have made trading easy, fun and basically free.The share price of TeslaTSLA,-0.55%,for example, skyrocketed 720% last year, in large part when investors bought the stock because it was already rising. This is called momentum investing, a trading strategy in which investors buy securities because they are going up — selling them only when they think the price has peaked.If this continues, it will likely lead to more financial bubbles and crashes that could make it harder for companies to raise capital, posing a threat to the already limping U.S. economic recovery. Even if the worst doesn’t happen, large price movements and allegations of price manipulation could hurt public confidence in financial markets, which would make people more reluctant to invest in retirement and other programs.Warren Buffett once said about stock market behavior: “The light can at any time go from green to red without pausing at yellow.”What he meant was that markets can turn on a dime and plunge. He saw these moments as opportunities to find deals in the market, but for most people they result in panic, heavy losses and economic consequences like mass unemployment — as we saw in 1929, 2000 and 2008.There’s no particular reason it won’t happen again.Alexander Kurov is a professor of finance and holds the Fred T.
