Journal","summary":"Understanding the difference between speculation and investing is essential to avoiding reckless ris","content":"<blockquote>\n Understanding the difference between speculation and investing is essential to avoiding reckless risk.\n</blockquote>\n<p>I’ve had it.</p>\n<p>The Wall Street Journal is wrong, and has remained wrong for decades, about one of the most basic distinctions in finance. And I can’t stand it anymore.</p>\n<p>If you buy a stock purely because it’s gone up a lot, without doing any research on it whatsoever, you are not—as the Journal and its editors bizarrely insist on calling you—an “investor.” If you buy a cryptocurrency because, hey, that sounds like fun, you aren’t an investor either.</p>\n<p>Whenever you buy any financial asset becauseyou have a hunchorjust for kicks, or becausesomebody famous is hyping the heck out of itoreverybody else seems to be buying it too, you aren’t investing.</p>\n<p>You’re definitely a trader: someone who has just bought an asset. And you may bea speculator: someone who thinks other people will pay more for it than you did.</p>\n<p>Of course,some folkswho buy meme stocks likeGameStopCorp.GME5.88%<i>are</i>investors. They read the companies’ financial statements, study the health of the underlying businesses and learn who else is betting on or against the shares. Likewise, many buyers of digital coins have put in the time and effort to understand how cryptocurrency works and how it could reshape finance.</p>\n<p>An investor relies on internal sources of return: earnings, income, growth in the value of assets. A speculator counts on external sources of return: primarilywhether somebody else will pay more, regardless of fundamental value.</p>\n<p>The word investor comes from the Latin “investire,” to dress in or clothe oneself, surround or envelop. You would never wear clothes without knowing what color they are or what material they’re made of. Likewise, you can’t invest in an asset you know nothing about.</p>\n<p>Nevertheless, the Journal and its editors have long called almost everybody who buys just about anything an “investor.” On July 12, 1962, the Journal publisheda letter to the editorfrom Benjamin Graham, author of the classic books “Security Analysis” and “The Intelligent Investor.” That June, complained Graham, the Journal had run an article headlined “Many Small Investors Bet on Further Drops, Sell Odd Lots Short.”</p>\n<p>He wrote: “By what definition of ‘investment’ can one give the name ‘investors’ to small people who make bets on the stock market by selling odd lots short?” (To short an odd lot is to borrow and sell fewer than 100 shares in a wager that a stock will fall—an expensive and risky bet, then and now.)</p>\n<p>“If these people are investors,” asked Graham, “how should one define ‘speculation’ and ‘speculators’? Isn’t it possible that the currentfailure to distinguishbetweeninvestment and speculationmay do grave harm not only to individuals but to the whole financial community—as it did in the late 1920s?”</p>\n<p>Graham wasn’t a snob who thought that the markets should be the exclusive playground of the rich. He wrote “The Intelligent Investor” with the express purpose of helping less-wealthy people participate wisely in the stock market.</p>\n<p>In that book, after which this column is named, Graham said, “Outright speculation is neither illegal, immoral, nor (for most people) fattening to the pocketbook.”</p>\n<p>However, he warned, it creates three dangers: “(1) speculating when you think you are investing; (2) speculating seriously instead of as a pastime, when you lack proper knowledge and skill for it; and (3) risking more money in speculation than you can afford to lose.”</p>\n<p>Most investors speculate a bit every once in a while. Like a lottery ticket or an occasional visit to the racetrack or casino, a little is harmless fun. A lot isn’t.</p>\n<p>If you think you’re investing when you’re speculating, you’ll attribute even momentary success to skill even thoughluck is the likeliest explanation. That can lead you to take reckless risks.</p>\n<p>Take speculating too seriously, and it turns intoan obsessionandan addiction. You become incapable of accepting your losses or focusing on the future more than a few minutes ahead. Next thing you know, you’re throwing even more money onto the bonfire.</p>\n<p>I think calling traders and speculators “investors” shoves many newcomers farther down the slippery slope toward risks they shouldn’t take and losses they can’t afford. I fervently hope the Journal and its editors will finally stop using “investor” as the default term for anyone who makes a trade.</p>\n<p>“ ‘Investor’ has a long history in the English language as a catch-all term denoting people who commit capital with the expectation of a return, no matter how long or short, no matter how many or how few investing columns they read,” WSJ Financial Editor Charles Forelle said in response to my complaints. “Back at least to the mid-19th century, ‘invest’ has even been used to describe a wager on horses—an activity surely no less divorced from fundamental analysis than a purchase of dogecoin.”</p>\n<p>I hear you, Boss, but I still think you’re wrong.

And I can’t stand it anymore.\nIf you buy a stock purely because it’s gone up a lot, without doing any research on it whatsoever, you are not—as the Journal and its editors bizarrely insist on calling you—an “investor.” If you buy a cryptocurrency because, hey, that sounds like fun, you aren’t an investor either.\nWhenever you buy any financial asset becauseyou have a hunchorjust for kicks, or becausesomebody famous is hyping the heck out of itoreverybody else seems to be buying it too, you aren’t investing.\nYou’re definitely a trader: someone who has just bought an asset. And you may bea speculator: someone who thinks other people will pay more for it than you did.\nOf course,some folkswho buy meme stocks likeGameStopCorp.GME5.88%areinvestors. They read the companies’ financial statements, study the health of the underlying businesses and learn who else is betting on or against the shares. Likewise, many buyers of digital coins have put in the time and effort to understand how cryptocurrency works and how it could reshape finance.\nAn investor relies on internal sources of return: earnings, income, growth in the value of assets. A speculator counts on external sources of return: primarilywhether somebody else will pay more, regardless of fundamental value.\nThe word investor comes from the Latin “investire,” to dress in or clothe oneself, surround or envelop. You would never wear clothes without knowing what color they are or what material they’re made of. Likewise, you can’t invest in an asset you know nothing about.\nNevertheless, the Journal and its editors have long called almost everybody who buys just about anything an “investor.” On July 12, 1962, the Journal publisheda letter to the editorfrom Benjamin Graham, author of the classic books “Security Analysis” and “The Intelligent Investor.” That June, complained Graham, the Journal had run an article headlined “Many Small Investors Bet on Further Drops, Sell Odd Lots Short.”\nHe wrote: “By what definition of ‘investment’ can one give the name ‘investors’ to small people who make bets on the stock market by selling odd lots short?” (To short an odd lot is to borrow and sell fewer than 100 shares in a wager that a stock will fall—an expensive and risky bet, then and now.)\n“If these people are investors,” asked Graham, “how should one define ‘speculation’ and ‘speculators’? Isn’t it possible that the currentfailure to distinguishbetweeninvestment and speculationmay do grave harm not only to individuals but to the whole financial community—as it did in the late 1920s?”\nGraham wasn’t a snob who thought that the markets should be the exclusive playground of the rich. He wrote “The Intelligent Investor” with the express purpose of helping less-wealthy people participate wisely in the stock market.\nIn that book, after which this column is named, Graham said, “Outright speculation is neither illegal, immoral, nor (for most people) fattening to the pocketbook.”\nHowever, he warned, it creates three dangers: “(1) speculating when you think you are investing; (2) speculating seriously instead of as a pastime, when you lack proper knowledge and skill for it; and (3) risking more money in speculation than you can afford to lose.”\nMost investors speculate a bit every once in a while. Like a lottery ticket or an occasional visit to the racetrack or casino, a little is harmless fun. A lot isn’t.\nIf you think you’re investing when you’re speculating, you’ll attribute even momentary success to skill even thoughluck is the likeliest explanation. That can lead you to take reckless risks.\nTake speculating too seriously, and it turns intoan obsessionandan addiction. You become incapable of accepting your losses or focusing on the future more than a few minutes ahead. Next thing you know, you’re throwing even more money onto the bonfire.\nI think calling traders and speculators “investors” shoves many newcomers farther down the slippery slope toward risks they shouldn’t take and losses they can’t afford. I fervently hope the Journal and its editors will finally stop using “investor” as the default term for anyone who makes a trade.\n“ ‘Investor’ has a long history in the English language as a catch-all term denoting people who commit capital with the expectation of a return, no matter how long or short, no matter how many or how few investing columns they read,” WSJ Financial Editor Charles Forelle said in response to my complaints. “Back at least to the mid-19th century, ‘invest’ has even been used to describe a wager on horses—an activity surely no less divorced from fundamental analysis than a purchase of dogecoin.”\nI hear you, Boss, but I still think you’re wrong. There’s no way the Journal would say a recreational gambler is “investing” at the racetrack just because a dictionary says we can.\nCalling novice speculators “investors” is one of the most powerful ways marketers fuel excessive trading.\nIna recent Instagram post, a former porn star who goes by the name Lana Rhoades posed in—well, mostly in—a bikini, as she held up what appears to be Graham’s “The Intelligent Investor.” According to IMDb.com, she starred in such videos as “Tushy” and “Make Me Meow.”\nIn her post, which was “liked” by nearly 1.8 million people, Ms. Rhoades announced that she will be promoting a cryptocurrency calledPAWGcoin.\nThe currency’s website says the coin is meant for “those who pay homage to developed posteriors.” (PAWG, I’ve been reliably informed, stands for Phat Ass White Girl.)\nPAWGcoin is up roughly 900% since Ms. Rhoades began promoting it in early June, according to Poocoin.io, a website that tracks such digital currencies.\nMs. Rhoades, who has tweeted “I also read the WSJ every morning,” couldn’t be reached for comment. PAWGcoin’s website encourages visitors to “invest now.”\nIn Ms. Rhoades’s Instagram post, she is holding up an open copy of the “The Intelligent Investor,” whose cover is reversed. She appears to be reading it with her eyes closed.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"SPY":0.9,".SPX":0.9,".IXIC":0.9,".DJI":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2879,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":186251936,"gmtCreate":1623504421825,"gmtModify":1631890533956,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573458163743036","authorIdStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/186251936","repostId":"2142206100","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3400,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":193023089,"gmtCreate":1620741015641,"gmtModify":1631890533971,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573458163743036","authorIdStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/193023089","repostId":"1101624279","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4334,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":193068240,"gmtCreate":1620740823380,"gmtModify":1631890533987,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573458163743036","authorIdStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/193068240","repostId":"1190684572","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3400,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":193068185,"gmtCreate":1620740809247,"gmtModify":1631892802738,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573458163743036","authorIdStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/193068185","repostId":"1199341916","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":447,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":190219345,"gmtCreate":1620622516187,"gmtModify":1631892802738,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573458163743036","authorIdStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/190219345","repostId":"1107149009","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":363,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":190210515,"gmtCreate":1620622505137,"gmtModify":1631892802742,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573458163743036","authorIdStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/190210515","repostId":"2134694686","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":278,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":190237211,"gmtCreate":1620622407033,"gmtModify":1631892802745,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573458163743036","authorIdStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlig

Association reported in March that streaming video subscriptions grew 26% to reac","content":"<p>The Motion Picture Association reported in March that streaming video subscriptions grew 26% to reach 1.1 billion worldwide last year.&nbsp;That's a huge tailwind for both established players and recent entrants to the streaming market.</p><p>Here are four top&nbsp;streaming stocksthat investors should consider buying, or at least keep on a watchlist.</p><p><b>1. Netflix: This show is far from over</b></p><p>Shares of&nbsp;<b>Netflix</b>(NASDAQ:NFLX)are down 7% year to date after the company posted first-quarter subscriber numbers that came in below expectations. But this could be a good buying opportunity, since the deceleration in subscriber growth merely reflects more people choosing to sign up for a membership in 2020, which left fewer prospective members waiting on the fence.</p><p>There were plenty of indications in the first-quarter report thatNetflix's growth storyis far from over. Revenue grew 24% year over year, driven by higher average revenue per membership.&nbsp;The bright side is that the content production delays helped the company save some money, with operating profit reaching $1.9 billion.</p><p>That extra profit will inevitably finance more content, leading to more subscriber growth. Management expects to add more subscribers in the second half of the year as several hit series and new films launch on the service.</p><p>What's more, management stated it is getting \"very close to being sustainably [free cash flow] positive,\" which will lessen the need for external financing to fund operations in the future.</p><p>With 208 million global paid subscribers, Netflix still has less than a 20% share of global streaming memberships.&nbsp;This top streaming stock may still be hitting new highs 10 years from now.</p><p><b>2. Discovery: Going on a streaming safari</b></p><p><b>Discovery</b>(NASDAQ:DISCK)(NASDAQ:DISCA)is no longer stuck in the land of cable; it has taken its valuable networks to discovery+ -- it's new streaming service that debuted in January.&nbsp;It has plenty of valuable content to offer, including HGTV, Food Network, Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, among many others. Discovery had the most-watched domestic pay-TV lineup in the first quarter, which should lead to a promising future in streaming.</p><p>The stock more than doubled in value after the launch and now sits up 24% year to date.&nbsp;I believe investors were correct to send the stock price up to begin with, although the stock might have risen too far, too fast. Nonetheless, the growth from discovery+ should insulate the company from the declining market for cable,&nbsp;making Discovery's current price-to-free cash flow multiple of 9.5 look very attractive.</p><p>In Q1, Discovery's direct-to-consumer business reached 13 million subscribers. That growth more than offset the decline in advertising revenue in the U.S. market and pushed total revenue up 4% year over year in the first quarter.&nbsp;In the near term, management is confident that the recent strength of Discovery's content lineup will position it well to regain advertising growth.</p><p>Discovery's profitability will come under pressure as it ramps up content spending for streaming, but that's expected. The growth ofdiscovery+ is a major catalystthat could send this media stock higher over the next few years.</p><p><b>3. Roku: The toll bridge of the streaming services market</b></p><p><b>Roku</b>(NASDAQ:ROKU)has been a hot stock in recent years. You don't see many stocks return 1,200% over a five-year period.&nbsp;Adoption for its TV operating system has been growing rapidly, as people cut the cord and turn to digital entertainment.</p><p>Roku's first-quarter earnings resultsshowed total active accounts reached 53 million for an increase of 35% year over year. But total streaming hours are growing faster, up 49%. That is a clear indication of growing satisfaction and consumption with the content on the platform.</p><p>Most importantly, engagement is driving growth in advertising revenue. Average revenue per user grew 32% in the first quarter. A big part of Roku's ability to monetize its user base is The Roku Channel, which offers free ad-supported content and reached households totaling an estimated 70 million people in Q1.</p><p>As its Q1 results show, Roku is a promising play on the future of streaming, but the stock is expensive, trading at 22 times sales. That's much higher than Netflix's price-to-sales multiple of 8.7.</p><p>Growth could slow later this year as Roku faces tough year-over-year comparisons with the robust growth reported in 2020. Yet, management's second-quarter guidance calls for revenue growth of 73% year over year at the midpoint of the range, so anything is possible.</p><p><b>4.

Netflix: This show is far from overShares of Netflix(NASDAQ:NFLX)are down 7% year to date after the company posted first-quarter subscriber numbers that came in below expectations. But this could be a good buying opportunity, since the deceleration in subscriber growth merely reflects more people choosing to sign up for a membership in 2020, which left fewer prospective members waiting on the fence.There were plenty of indications in the first-quarter report thatNetflix's growth storyis far from over. Revenue grew 24% year over year, driven by higher average revenue per membership. The bright side is that the content production delays helped the company save some money, with operating profit reaching $1.9 billion.That extra profit will inevitably finance more content, leading to more subscriber growth. Management expects to add more subscribers in the second half of the year as several hit series and new films launch on the service.What's more, management stated it is getting \"very close to being sustainably [free cash flow] positive,\" which will lessen the need for external financing to fund operations in the future.With 208 million global paid subscribers, Netflix still has less than a 20% share of global streaming memberships. This top streaming stock may still be hitting new highs 10 years from now.2. Discovery: Going on a streaming safariDiscovery(NASDAQ:DISCK)(NASDAQ:DISCA)is no longer stuck in the land of cable; it has taken its valuable networks to discovery+ -- it's new streaming service that debuted in January. It has plenty of valuable content to offer, including HGTV, Food Network, Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, among many others. Discovery had the most-watched domestic pay-TV lineup in the first quarter, which should lead to a promising future in streaming.The stock more than doubled in value after the launch and now sits up 24% year to date. I believe investors were correct to send the stock price up to begin with, although the stock might have risen too far, too fast. Nonetheless, the growth from discovery+ should insulate the company from the declining market for cable, making Discovery's current price-to-free cash flow multiple of 9.5 look very attractive.In Q1, Discovery's direct-to-consumer business reached 13 million subscribers. That growth more than offset the decline in advertising revenue in the U.S. market and pushed total revenue up 4% year over year in the first quarter. In the near term, management is confident that the recent strength of Discovery's content lineup will position it well to regain advertising growth.Discovery's profitability will come under pressure as it ramps up content spending for streaming, but that's expected. The growth ofdiscovery+ is a major catalystthat could send this media stock higher over the next few years.3. Roku: The toll bridge of the streaming services marketRoku(NASDAQ:ROKU)has been a hot stock in recent years. You don't see many stocks return 1,200% over a five-year period. Adoption for its TV operating system has been growing rapidly, as people cut the cord and turn to digital entertainment.Roku's first-quarter earnings resultsshowed total active accounts reached 53 million for an increase of 35% year over year. But total streaming hours are growing faster, up 49%. That is a clear indication of growing satisfaction and consumption with the content on the platform.Most importantly, engagement is driving growth in advertising revenue. Average revenue per user grew 32% in the first quarter. A big part of Roku's ability to monetize its user base is The Roku Channel, which offers free ad-supported content and reached households totaling an estimated 70 million people in Q1.As its Q1 results show, Roku is a promising play on the future of streaming, but the stock is expensive, trading at 22 times sales. That's much higher than Netflix's price-to-sales multiple of 8.7.Growth could slow later this year as Roku faces tough year-over-year comparisons with the robust growth reported in 2020. Yet, management's second-quarter guidance calls for revenue growth of 73% year over year at the midpoint of the range, so anything is possible.4. Walt Disney: The complete entertainment companyIf the recent growth of other streaming services is any indication,Walt Disney(NYSE:DIS)should report another strong quarter for its direct-to-consumer segment when it reports fiscal second-quarter earnings on Thursday, May 13. Disney+ has alreadysurpassed 100 million subscriberssince launching in 2019, but the stock could also be a good reopening play on the economy.Management is seeing a lot of pent-up demand fortheme parksaround the world. To drive traffic, Disney spent the pandemic moving forward with major investments in new attractions, including the upcomingStar Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel, scheduled to open at Walt Disney World in 2022. Theme parks are arguably the most direct-to-consumer part of the Disney empire, as CEO Bob Chapek has emphasized.As for Disney+, expect a lot moreStar Warsand Marvel originals very soon. Disney told investors in December that it has a total of 20 original series evenly split across the Marvel andStar Warsuniverses launching over the next few years, along with releases from Pixar and Disney studios. Content wins subscribers, and Disney will have plenty of it.The stock is up 82% over the last year, but there could be more gains in store as Disney's theme parks reopen and its streaming services continue their march toward management's goal of at least 300 million subscribers across Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ by fiscal 2024.What makes Disney stand out on this list is that it has many ways to monetize its entertainment properties outside of streaming. This opens more growth opportunities and makes Walt Disney the ultimateentertainment stock.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"DIS":0.9,"ROKU":0.9,"NFLX":0.9,"DISCA":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":462,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":190234072,"gmtCreate":1620622342696,"gmtModify":1631892802751,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573458163743036","authorIdStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/190234072","repostId":"2134682410","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":567,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":190235433,"gmtCreate":1620622329722,"gmtModify":1631892802756,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573458163743036","authorIdStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/190235433","repostId":"2134686276","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":446,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":317256186,"gmtCreate":1612452002345,"gmtModify":1703762152763,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573458163743036","authorIdStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a

Netflix: This show is far from over</b></p><p>Shares of&nbsp;<b>Netflix</b>(NASDAQ:NFLX)are down 7% year to date after the company posted first-quarter subscriber numbers that came in below expectations. But this could be a good buying opportunity, since the deceleration in subscriber growth merely reflects more people choosing to sign up for a membership in 2020, which left fewer prospective members waiting on the fence.</p><p>There were plenty of indications in the first-quarter report thatNetflix's growth storyis far from over. Revenue grew 24% year over year, driven by higher average revenue per membership.&nbsp;The bright side is that the content production delays helped the company save some money, with operating profit reaching $1.9 billion.</p><p>That extra profit will inevitably finance more content, leading to more subscriber growth. Management expects to add more subscribers in the second half of the year as several hit series and new films launch on the service.</p><p>What's more, management stated it is getting \"very close to being sustainably [free cash flow] positive,\" which will lessen the need for external financing to fund operations in the future.</p><p>With 208 million global paid subscribers, Netflix still has less than a 20% share of global streaming memberships.&nbsp;This top streaming stock may still be hitting new highs 10 years from now.</p><p><b>2. Discovery: Going on a streaming safari</b></p><p><b>Discovery</b>(NASDAQ:DISCK)(NASDAQ:DISCA)is no longer stuck in the land of cable; it has taken its valuable networks to discovery+ -- it's new streaming service that debuted in January.&nbsp;It has plenty of valuable content to offer, including HGTV, Food Network, Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, among many others. Discovery had the most-watched domestic pay-TV lineup in the first quarter, which should lead to a promising future in streaming.</p><p>The stock more than doubled in value after the launch and now sits up 24% year to date.&nbsp;I believe investors were correct to send the stock price up to begin with, although the stock might have risen too far, too fast. Nonetheless, the growth from discovery+ should insulate the company from the declining market for cable,&nbsp;making Discovery's current price-to-free cash flow multiple of 9.5 look very attractive.</p><p>In Q1, Discovery's direct-to-consumer business reached 13 million subscribers. That growth more than offset the decline in advertising revenue in the U.S. market and pushed total revenue up 4% year over year in the first quarter.&nbsp;In the near term, management is confident that the recent strength of Discovery's content lineup will position it well to regain advertising growth.</p><p>Discovery's profitability will come under pressure as it ramps up content spending for streaming, but that's expected. The growth ofdiscovery+ is a major catalystthat could send this media stock higher over the next few years.</p><p><b>3. Roku: The toll bridge of the streaming services market</b></p><p><b>Roku</b>(NASDAQ:ROKU)has been a hot stock in recent years. You don't see many stocks return 1,200% over a five-year period.&nbsp;Adoption for its TV operating system has been growing rapidly, as people cut the cord and turn to digital entertainment.</p><p>Roku's first-quarter earnings resultsshowed total active accounts reached 53 million for an increase of 35% year over year. But total streaming hours are growing faster, up 49%. That is a clear indication of growing satisfaction and consumption with the content on the platform.</p><p>Most importantly, engagement is driving growth in advertising revenue. Average revenue per user grew 32% in the first quarter. A big part of Roku's ability to monetize its user base is The Roku Channel, which offers free ad-supported content and reached households totaling an estimated 70 million people in Q1.</p><p>As its Q1 results show, Roku is a promising play on the future of streaming, but the stock is expensive, trading at 22 times sales. That's much higher than Netflix's price-to-sales multiple of 8.7.</p><p>Growth could slow later this year as Roku faces tough year-over-year comparisons with the robust growth reported in 2020. Yet, management's second-quarter guidance calls for revenue growth of 73% year over year at the midpoint of the range, so anything is possible.</p><p><b>4.

Netflix: This show is far from overShares of Netflix(NASDAQ:NFLX)are down 7% year to date after the company posted first-quarter subscriber numbers that came in below expectations. But this could be a good buying opportunity, since the deceleration in subscriber growth merely reflects more people choosing to sign up for a membership in 2020, which left fewer prospective members waiting on the fence.There were plenty of indications in the first-quarter report thatNetflix's growth storyis far from over. Revenue grew 24% year over year, driven by higher average revenue per membership. The bright side is that the content production delays helped the company save some money, with operating profit reaching $1.9 billion.That extra profit will inevitably finance more content, leading to more subscriber growth. Management expects to add more subscribers in the second half of the year as several hit series and new films launch on the service.What's more, management stated it is getting \"very close to being sustainably [free cash flow] positive,\" which will lessen the need for external financing to fund operations in the future.With 208 million global paid subscribers, Netflix still has less than a 20% share of global streaming memberships. This top streaming stock may still be hitting new highs 10 years from now.2. Discovery: Going on a streaming safariDiscovery(NASDAQ:DISCK)(NASDAQ:DISCA)is no longer stuck in the land of cable; it has taken its valuable networks to discovery+ -- it's new streaming service that debuted in January. It has plenty of valuable content to offer, including HGTV, Food Network, Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, among many others. Discovery had the most-watched domestic pay-TV lineup in the first quarter, which should lead to a promising future in streaming.The stock more than doubled in value after the launch and now sits up 24% year to date. I believe investors were correct to send the stock price up to begin with, although the stock might have risen too far, too fast. Nonetheless, the growth from discovery+ should insulate the company from the declining market for cable, making Discovery's current price-to-free cash flow multiple of 9.5 look very attractive.In Q1, Discovery's direct-to-consumer business reached 13 million subscribers. That growth more than offset the decline in advertising revenue in the U.S. market and pushed total revenue up 4% year over year in the first quarter. In the near term, management is confident that the recent strength of Discovery's content lineup will position it well to regain advertising growth.Discovery's profitability will come under pressure as it ramps up content spending for streaming, but that's expected. The growth ofdiscovery+ is a major catalystthat could send this media stock higher over the next few years.3. Roku: The toll bridge of the streaming services marketRoku(NASDAQ:ROKU)has been a hot stock in recent years. You don't see many stocks return 1,200% over a five-year period. Adoption for its TV operating system has been growing rapidly, as people cut the cord and turn to digital entertainment.Roku's first-quarter earnings resultsshowed total active accounts reached 53 million for an increase of 35% year over year. But total streaming hours are growing faster, up 49%. That is a clear indication of growing satisfaction and consumption with the content on the platform.Most importantly, engagement is driving growth in advertising revenue. Average revenue per user grew 32% in the first quarter. A big part of Roku's ability to monetize its user base is The Roku Channel, which offers free ad-supported content and reached households totaling an estimated 70 million people in Q1.As its Q1 results show, Roku is a promising play on the future of streaming, but the stock is expensive, trading at 22 times sales. That's much higher than Netflix's price-to-sales multiple of 8.7.Growth could slow later this year as Roku faces tough year-over-year comparisons with the robust growth reported in 2020. Yet, management's second-quarter guidance calls for revenue growth of 73% year over year at the midpoint of the range, so anything is possible.4. Walt Disney: The complete entertainment companyIf the recent growth of other streaming services is any indication,Walt Disney(NYSE:DIS)should report another strong quarter for its direct-to-consumer segment when it reports fiscal second-quarter earnings on Thursday, May 13. Disney+ has alreadysurpassed 100 million subscriberssince launching in 2019, but the stock could also be a good reopening play on the economy.Management is seeing a lot of pent-up demand fortheme parksaround the world. To drive traffic, Disney spent the pandemic moving forward with major investments in new attractions, including the upcomingStar Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel, scheduled to open at Walt Disney World in 2022. Theme parks are arguably the most direct-to-consumer part of the Disney empire, as CEO Bob Chapek has emphasized.As for Disney+, expect a lot moreStar Warsand Marvel originals very soon. Disney told investors in December that it has a total of 20 original series evenly split across the Marvel andStar Warsuniverses launching over the next few years, along with releases from Pixar and Disney studios. Content wins subscribers, and Disney will have plenty of it.The stock is up 82% over the last year, but there could be more gains in store as Disney's theme parks reopen and its streaming services continue their march toward management's goal of at least 300 million subscribers across Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ by fiscal 2024.What makes Disney stand out on this list is that it has many ways to monetize its entertainment properties outside of streaming. This opens more growth opportunities and makes Walt Disney the ultimateentertainment stock.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"DIS":0.9,"ROKU":0.9,"NFLX":0.9,"DISCA":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":462,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":159246332,"gmtCreate":1624972357426,"gmtModify":1631890533894,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573458163743036","idStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/159246332","repostId":"2146388793","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2034,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":186255919,"gmtCreate":1623504659731,"gmtModify":1631890533905,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573458163743036","idStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/186255919","repostId":"1131421513","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2566,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":186252684,"gmtCreate":1623504642748,"gmtModify":1631890533916,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573458163743036","idStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/186252684","repostId":"2142520474","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3367,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":186256327,"gmtCreate":1623504561469,"gmtModify":1631890533927,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573458163743036","idStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/186256327","repostId":"2142520474","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2982,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":186251555,"gmtCreate":1623504466577,"gmtModify":1631890533940,"author":{"id":"3573458163743036","authorId":"3573458163743036","name":"ChanY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38696d038c0f4e05d2243cdee55d0aad","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573458163743036","idStr":"3573458163743036"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/186251555","repostId":"1147474880","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1147474880","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623470168,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1147474880?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-12 11:56","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Investor, Trader, Speculator: Which One Are You?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1147474880","media":"The Wall Street Journal","summary":"Understanding the difference between speculation and investing is essential to avoiding reckless ris","content":"<blockquote>\n Understanding the difference between speculation and investing is essential to avoiding reckless risk.\n</blockquote>\n<p>I’ve had it.</p>\n<p>The Wall Street Journal is wrong, and has remained wrong for decades, about one of the most basic distinctions in finance. And I can’t stand it anymore.</p>\n<p>If you buy a stock purely because it’s gone up a lot, without doing any research on it whatsoever, you are not—as the Journal and its editors bizarrely insist on calling you—an “investor.” If you buy a cryptocurrency because, hey, that sounds like fun, you aren’t an investor either.</p>\n<p>Whenever you buy any financial asset becauseyou have a hunchorjust for kicks, or becausesomebody famous is hyping the heck out of itoreverybody else seems to be buying it too, you aren’t investing.</p>\n<p>You’re definitely a trader: someone who has just bought an asset. And you may bea speculator: someone who thinks other people will pay more for it than you did.</p>\n<p>Of course,some folkswho buy meme stocks likeGameStopCorp.GME5.88%<i>are</i>investors. They read the companies’ financial statements, study the health of the underlying businesses and learn who else is betting on or against the shares. Likewise, many buyers of digital coins have put in the time and effort to understand how cryptocurrency works and how it could reshape finance.</p>\n<p>An investor relies on internal sources of return: earnings, income, growth in the value of assets. A speculator counts on external sources of return: primarilywhether somebody else will pay more, regardless of fundamental value.</p>\n<p>The word investor comes from the Latin “investire,” to dress in or clothe oneself, surround or envelop. You would never wear clothes without knowing what color they are or what material they’re made of. Likewise, you can’t invest in an asset you know nothing about.</p>\n<p>Nevertheless, the Journal and its editors have long called almost everybody who buys just about anything an “investor.” On July 12, 1962, the Journal publisheda letter to the editorfrom Benjamin Graham, author of the classic books “Security Analysis” and “The Intelligent Investor.” That June, complained Graham, the Journal had run an article headlined “Many Small Investors Bet on Further Drops, Sell Odd Lots Short.”</p>\n<p>He wrote: “By what definition of ‘investment’ can one give the name ‘investors’ to small people who make bets on the stock market by selling odd lots short?” (To short an odd lot is to borrow and sell fewer than 100 shares in a wager that a stock will fall—an expensive and risky bet, then and now.)</p>\n<p>“If these people are investors,” asked Graham, “how should one define ‘speculation’ and ‘speculators’? Isn’t it possible that the currentfailure to distinguishbetweeninvestment and speculationmay do grave harm not only to individuals but to the whole financial community—as it did in the late 1920s?”</p>\n<p>Graham wasn’t a snob who thought that the markets should be the exclusive playground of the rich. He wrote “The Intelligent Investor” with the express purpose of helping less-wealthy people participate wisely in the stock market.</p>\n<p>In that book, after which this column is named, Graham said, “Outright speculation is neither illegal, immoral, nor (for most people) fattening to the pocketbook.”</p>\n<p>However, he warned, it creates three dangers: “(1) speculating when you think you are investing; (2) speculating seriously instead of as a pastime, when you lack proper knowledge and skill for it; and (3) risking more money in speculation than you can afford to lose.”</p>\n<p>Most investors speculate a bit every once in a while. Like a lottery ticket or an occasional visit to the racetrack or casino, a little is harmless fun. A lot isn’t.</p>\n<p>If you think you’re investing when you’re speculating, you’ll attribute even momentary success to skill even thoughluck is the likeliest explanation. That can lead you to take reckless risks.</p>\n<p>Take speculating too seriously, and it turns intoan obsessionandan addiction. You become incapable of accepting your losses or focusing on the future more than a few minutes ahead. Next thing you know, you’re throwing even more money onto the bonfire.</p>\n<p>I think calling traders and speculators “investors” shoves many newcomers farther down the slippery slope toward risks they shouldn’t take and losses they can’t afford. I fervently hope the Journal and its editors will finally stop using “investor” as the default term for anyone who makes a trade.</p>\n<p>“ ‘Investor’ has a long history in the English language as a catch-all term denoting people who commit capital with the expectation of a return, no matter how long or short, no matter how many or how few investing columns they read,” WSJ Financial Editor Charles Forelle said in response to my complaints. “Back at least to the mid-19th century, ‘invest’ has even been used to describe a wager on horses—an activity surely no less divorced from fundamental analysis than a purchase of dogecoin.”</p>\n<p>I hear you, Boss, but I still think you’re wrong.

And I can’t stand it anymore.\nIf you buy a stock purely because it’s gone up a lot, without doing any research on it whatsoever, you are not—as the Journal and its editors bizarrely insist on calling you—an “investor.” If you buy a cryptocurrency because, hey, that sounds like fun, you aren’t an investor either.\nWhenever you buy any financial asset becauseyou have a hunchorjust for kicks, or becausesomebody famous is hyping the heck out of itoreverybody else seems to be buying it too, you aren’t investing.\nYou’re definitely a trader: someone who has just bought an asset. And you may bea speculator: someone who thinks other people will pay more for it than you did.\nOf course,some folkswho buy meme stocks likeGameStopCorp.GME5.88%areinvestors. They read the companies’ financial statements, study the health of the underlying businesses and learn who else is betting on or against the shares. Likewise, many buyers of digital coins have put in the time and effort to understand how cryptocurrency works and how it could reshape finance.\nAn investor relies on internal sources of return: earnings, income, growth in the value of assets. A speculator counts on external sources of return: primarilywhether somebody else will pay more, regardless of fundamental value.\nThe word investor comes from the Latin “investire,” to dress in or clothe oneself, surround or envelop. You would never wear clothes without knowing what color they are or what material they’re made of. Likewise, you can’t invest in an asset you know nothing about.\nNevertheless, the Journal and its editors have long called almost everybody who buys just about anything an “investor.” On July 12, 1962, the Journal publisheda letter to the editorfrom Benjamin Graham, author of the classic books “Security Analysis” and “The Intelligent Investor.” That June, complained Graham, the Journal had run an article headlined “Many Small Investors Bet on Further Drops, Sell Odd Lots Short.”\nHe wrote: “By what definition of ‘investment’ can one give the name ‘investors’ to small people who make bets on the stock market by selling odd lots short?” (To short an odd lot is to borrow and sell fewer than 100 shares in a wager that a stock will fall—an expensive and risky bet, then and now.)\n“If these people are investors,” asked Graham, “how should one define ‘speculation’ and ‘speculators’? Isn’t it possible that the currentfailure to distinguishbetweeninvestment and speculationmay do grave harm not only to individuals but to the whole financial community—as it did in the late 1920s?”\nGraham wasn’t a snob who thought that the markets should be the exclusive playground of the rich. He wrote “The Intelligent Investor” with the express purpose of helping less-wealthy people participate wisely in the stock market.\nIn that book, after which this column is named, Graham said, “Outright speculation is neither illegal, immoral, nor (for most people) fattening to the pocketbook.”\nHowever, he warned, it creates three dangers: “(1) speculating when you think you are investing; (2) speculating seriously instead of as a pastime, when you lack proper knowledge and skill for it; and (3) risking more money in speculation than you can afford to lose.”\nMost investors speculate a bit every once in a while. Like a lottery ticket or an occasional visit to the racetrack or casino, a little is harmless fun. A lot isn’t.\nIf you think you’re investing when you’re speculating, you’ll attribute even momentary success to skill even thoughluck is the likeliest explanation. That can lead you to take reckless risks.\nTake speculating too seriously, and it turns intoan obsessionandan addiction. You become incapable of accepting your losses or focusing on the future more than a few minutes ahead. Next thing you know, you’re throwing even more money onto the bonfire.\nI think calling traders and speculators “investors” shoves many newcomers farther down the slippery slope toward risks they shouldn’t take and losses they can’t afford. I fervently hope the Journal and its editors will finally stop using “investor” as the default term for anyone who makes a trade.\n“ ‘Investor’ has a long history in the English language as a catch-all term denoting people who commit capital with the expectation of a return, no matter how long or short, no matter how many or how few investing columns they read,” WSJ Financial Editor Charles Forelle said in response to my complaints. “Back at least to the mid-19th century, ‘invest’ has even been used to describe a wager on horses—an activity surely no less divorced from fundamental analysis than a purchase of dogecoin.”\nI hear you, Boss, but I still think you’re wrong. There’s no way the Journal would say a recreational gambler is “investing” at the racetrack just because a dictionary says we can.\nCalling novice speculators “investors” is one of the most powerful ways marketers fuel excessive trading.\nIna recent Instagram post, a former porn star who goes by the name Lana Rhoades posed in—well, mostly in—a bikini, as she held up what appears to be Graham’s “The Intelligent Investor.” According to IMDb.com, she starred in such videos as “Tushy” and “Make Me Meow.”\nIn her post, which was “liked” by nearly 1.8 million people, Ms. Rhoades announced that she will be promoting a cryptocurrency calledPAWGcoin.\nThe currency’s website says the coin is meant for “those who pay homage to developed posteriors.” (PAWG, I’ve been reliably informed, stands for Phat Ass White Girl.)\nPAWGcoin is up roughly 900% since Ms. Rhoades began promoting it in early June, according to Poocoin.io, a website that tracks such digital currencies.\nMs. Rhoades, who has tweeted “I also read the WSJ every morning,” couldn’t be reached for comment. PAWGcoin’s website encourages visitors to “invest now.”\nIn Ms. Rhoades’s Instagram post, she is holding up an open copy of the “The Intelligent Investor,” whose cover is reversed. She appears to be reading it with her eyes closed.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"SPY":0.9,".SPX":0.9,".IXIC":0.9,".DJI":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2879,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
