(INTC) investors over the past few years.</p>\n<p>It seems like every time the sun comes out...there is another storm right around the corner.</p>\n<p>As highlighted on the earnings call last night, the next \"storm\" brewing for Intel is continued supply chain issues (component shortages in the PC business) and reduced near-term profitability from rising capital expenditure needs, which has sent the stock plummeting 11% this morning into the abyss.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5bd612f6f25b6e86d7a72b38440d513f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"449\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>However, buying the dips has actually been pretty lucrative in the recent past...if, of course, you were lucky enough to fade the rallies.</p>\n<p>To be fair, Intel has had its fair share of challenges this year, despite general tailwinds in the industry (i.e., chip demand far outpacing supply).</p>\n<p>Specifically, Intel has had some well-documented manufacturing blunders that have caused major delays and loss of some market share...mainly to Advanced Micro Devices (AMD).</p>\n<p>This has triggered concern amongst investors that the stock may be a potential \"value trap\" now.</p>\n<p>All that said, Intel is dedicated to spending $25 billion to $28 billion in 2022 and just broke ground on some new fabs.</p>\n<p>Personally, I don't think we are anywhere near peak demand for chips and I believe that Intel's fabrication capabilities are (and will continue to be) a huge advantage for the company for years to come.</p>\n<p>So how can we structure a trade to take advantage of the upside potential in the stock (after this pullback) while also protecting ourselves from more near-term downside (if any)?</p>\n<p><b>It's a perfect situation for a \"Triple Play\" trade!</b></p>\n<p>Intel Corp.</p>\n<p><b>Sector/Industry:</b>Technology/Semiconductors</p>\n<blockquote>\n Intel is the world's largest chipmaker. It designs and manufactures microprocessors for the global personal computer and data center markets. Intel pioneered the x86 architecture for microprocessors. It was the prime proponent of Moore's Law for advances in semiconductor manufacturing, though the firm has recently faced manufacturing delays. While Intel's server processor business has benefited from the shift to the cloud, the firm has also been expanding into new adjacencies as the personal computer market has stagnated. These include areas such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and automotive. Intel has been active on the merger and acquisitions front, acquiring Altera, Mobileye, and Habana Labs in order to bolster these efforts in non-PC arenas.\n</blockquote>\n<p><i>Source: YCharts</i></p>\n<p><b>Valuation/Upside Potential</b></p>\n<p>Intel looks extremely attractive from a valuation standpoint and is currently trading at a decent discount to all of its long-term valuation metrics (hence the high Value Ranking of 10).</p>\n<p>Specifically, Intel is trading at a nice discount to its historical P/E multiple on a forward basis (10.6x 2021 earnings).<i>Note that the company actually just increased its guidance for fiscal 2021 earnings to $5.28 per share</i>.</p>\n<p>That said, as supply chain worries decrease over time, we definitely think there could be some room for margin expansion in the future.</p>\n<p>If you put just a 12x-14x multiple on consensus forward earnings of $5.28 per share for FYE 2021, that would equate to a $63.00- $73.00 stock price (representing 25%-45% upside from current levels).</p>\n<p>Although it probably won't get there in a straight line...</p>\n<p><b>\"Triple Play\" Trade Analysis</b></p>\n<p>A \"Triple Play\" trade involves simultaneously selling a cash-secured put and a covered call on a stock that you own.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7e3af23e0208929d569a6e62a12a9607\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: Option Income Advisor</span></p>\n<p>Note that if you don't currently own INTC stock, you will want to buy it before you write the covered call.</p>\n<p>This trade will allow you to take advantage of the upside potential in the stock while also protecting some of the near-term downside (if any).</p>\n<p><b>Step 1: Sell Cash-Secured Puts (50% of position size)</b></p>\n<p>The first step of the Triple Play trade is to sell a cash-secured put on the stock for 50% of your target position size. For example, if you wanted to own 400 shares of INTC... you would sell 2 cash-secured put contract, which represents 200 shares of stock.</p>\n<p>The three main data points we look at when analyzing a cash-secured put trade are:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Premium Yield % (or Average Monthly Yield %): Measure of expected return on capital assuming that the option expires worthless (out-of-the-money).<i>Assumes that the option is fully cash secured.</i></li>\n <li>Margin-of-Safety %: Measure of downside protection or the percentage that the underlying stock could decline and would still allow you to break even on the option trade.</li>\n <li>Delta: A good proxy for the probability that the put option will finish in-the-money.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><i>Note that there's always a negative correlation between Premium Yield and Margin of Safety: The higher the Premium Yield for a given strike month, the lower the Margin of Safety.</i></p>\n<p><i>Investors always should be honest with themselves about their risk tolerance. Selling CSPs can be adapted to suit your needs.</i></p>\n<p>As discussed in the video, we like the $45.00-$50.00 range for INTC in the near term. So we like the following cash-secured put:</p>\n<p><i><b>INTC Nov 19th $47.50.00 Put (28 days until expiration)</b></i></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Option Premium: ~$0.58 premium</li>\n <li>Average Monthly Yield %: 1.3% (15.6% annualized)</li>\n <li>Margin-of-Safety %: 4.2%</li>\n <li>Delta: 28</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Step 2: Buy the Stock (50% of position size)</b></p>\n<p><i>Note: At the time of publication, INTC was trading at $49.60. If you already own the stock, you can skip to Step 3.</i></p>\n<p>The second step of the Triple Play is to buy the stock (50% of your target position size).

(INTC) investors over the past few years.\nIt seems like every time the sun comes out...there is another storm right around the corner.\nAs highlighted on the earnings call last night, the next \"storm\" brewing for Intel is continued supply chain issues (component shortages in the PC business) and reduced near-term profitability from rising capital expenditure needs, which has sent the stock plummeting 11% this morning into the abyss.\n\nHowever, buying the dips has actually been pretty lucrative in the recent past...if, of course, you were lucky enough to fade the rallies.\nTo be fair, Intel has had its fair share of challenges this year, despite general tailwinds in the industry (i.e., chip demand far outpacing supply).\nSpecifically, Intel has had some well-documented manufacturing blunders that have caused major delays and loss of some market share...mainly to Advanced Micro Devices (AMD).\nThis has triggered concern amongst investors that the stock may be a potential \"value trap\" now.\nAll that said, Intel is dedicated to spending $25 billion to $28 billion in 2022 and just broke ground on some new fabs.\nPersonally, I don't think we are anywhere near peak demand for chips and I believe that Intel's fabrication capabilities are (and will continue to be) a huge advantage for the company for years to come.\nSo how can we structure a trade to take advantage of the upside potential in the stock (after this pullback) while also protecting ourselves from more near-term downside (if any)?\nIt's a perfect situation for a \"Triple Play\" trade!\nIntel Corp.\nSector/Industry:Technology/Semiconductors\n\n Intel is the world's largest chipmaker. It designs and manufactures microprocessors for the global personal computer and data center markets. Intel pioneered the x86 architecture for microprocessors. It was the prime proponent of Moore's Law for advances in semiconductor manufacturing, though the firm has recently faced manufacturing delays. While Intel's server processor business has benefited from the shift to the cloud, the firm has also been expanding into new adjacencies as the personal computer market has stagnated. These include areas such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and automotive. Intel has been active on the merger and acquisitions front, acquiring Altera, Mobileye, and Habana Labs in order to bolster these efforts in non-PC arenas.\n\nSource: YCharts\nValuation/Upside Potential\nIntel looks extremely attractive from a valuation standpoint and is currently trading at a decent discount to all of its long-term valuation metrics (hence the high Value Ranking of 10).\nSpecifically, Intel is trading at a nice discount to its historical P/E multiple on a forward basis (10.6x 2021 earnings).Note that the company actually just increased its guidance for fiscal 2021 earnings to $5.28 per share.\nThat said, as supply chain worries decrease over time, we definitely think there could be some room for margin expansion in the future.\nIf you put just a 12x-14x multiple on consensus forward earnings of $5.28 per share for FYE 2021, that would equate to a $63.00- $73.00 stock price (representing 25%-45% upside from current levels).\nAlthough it probably won't get there in a straight line...\n\"Triple Play\" Trade Analysis\nA \"Triple Play\" trade involves simultaneously selling a cash-secured put and a covered call on a stock that you own.\nSource: Option Income Advisor\nNote that if you don't currently own INTC stock, you will want to buy it before you write the covered call.\nThis trade will allow you to take advantage of the upside potential in the stock while also protecting some of the near-term downside (if any).\nStep 1: Sell Cash-Secured Puts (50% of position size)\nThe first step of the Triple Play trade is to sell a cash-secured put on the stock for 50% of your target position size. For example, if you wanted to own 400 shares of INTC... you would sell 2 cash-secured put contract, which represents 200 shares of stock.\nThe three main data points we look at when analyzing a cash-secured put trade are:\n\nPremium Yield % (or Average Monthly Yield %): Measure of expected return on capital assuming that the option expires worthless (out-of-the-money).Assumes that the option is fully cash secured.\nMargin-of-Safety %: Measure of downside protection or the percentage that the underlying stock could decline and would still allow you to break even on the option trade.\nDelta: A good proxy for the probability that the put option will finish in-the-money.\n\nNote that there's always a negative correlation between Premium Yield and Margin of Safety: The higher the Premium Yield for a given strike month, the lower the Margin of Safety.\nInvestors always should be honest with themselves about their risk tolerance. Selling CSPs can be adapted to suit your needs.\nAs discussed in the video, we like the $45.00-$50.00 range for INTC in the near term. So we like the following cash-secured put:\nINTC Nov 19th $47.50.00 Put (28 days until expiration)\n\nOption Premium: ~$0.58 premium\nAverage Monthly Yield %: 1.3% (15.6% annualized)\nMargin-of-Safety %: 4.2%\nDelta: 28\n\nStep 2: Buy the Stock (50% of position size)\nNote: At the time of publication, INTC was trading at $49.60. If you already own the stock, you can skip to Step 3.\nThe second step of the Triple Play is to buy the stock (50% of your target position size). For example, if you wanted to own 400 shares of INTC... you would buy 200 shares of stock.\nStep 3: Sell Covered Calls On Your Stock Position (*optional*)\nA covered call strategy will help generate some short-term income, maintain some upside exposure, and mitigate some downside risk.\nWith a covered call, you are agreeing to sell your stock at a higher price (your call option strike price) but you get to keep your call option premium either way.\nAs discussed in the video, since we like the upside potential in the near term with INTC, you will want to give yourself some room for the stock to run.So we would actually recommend waiting for the stock to trade a little higher before selling covered calls.\nThat said, if you wanted to execute the covered calls today, I would certainly consider taking less premium income to preserve more potential upside profit. For example, the $53.00 call would give you an extra 0.5% of income per month (6.0% annualized)...which would essentially triple your dividend yield on the stock!\nINTC Nov 19th $53.00 Call (28 days until expiration)\n\nOption Premium: ~$0.25 premium\nAverage Monthly Yield %: 0.5% (6.0% annualized)\nUpside Profit %: 7.4%\nDelta: 15\n\nConclusion\nThis Triple Play trade will allow you to take advantage of the upside potential in INTC stock while also giving you some downside cushion if shares trade lower in the near term. As the covered calls and cash-secured puts expire, you can rinse and repeat the Triple Play trade!","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"INTC":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1477,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":825070481,"gmtCreate":1634182975464,"gmtModify":1634182975596,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Time to buy Inovio?","listText":"Time to buy Inovio?","text":"Time to buy Inovio?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/825070481","repostId":"2175518141","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2175518141","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1634181120,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2175518141?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-10-14 11:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"4 Growth Stocks With 187% to 434% Upside, According to Wall Street","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2175518141","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Based on analysts' loftiest price targets, these companies could nearly triple or potentially quintuple investors' money over the next year.","content":"<p>For much of the past 18 months, Wall Street and investors have enjoyed an historic stock market rally. Since bottoming out on March 23, 2020, the widely followed <b>S&amp;P 500</b> has doubled in value. For some context, the S&amp;P 500 has average an annualized total return (including dividends paid) of closer to 11% since the beginning of 1980.</p>\n<p>But for some stocks, there's plenty of upside still to come. According to high-water price targets from select analysts and/or Wall Street investment banks, the following four growth stocks offer share-price upside ranging from a low of 187% to a high of 434% over the coming 12 months.</p>\n<h2>Plug Power: Implied upside of 187%</h2>\n<p>The first high-growth stock with the potential to get investors' motors running is hydrogen fuel-cell solutions provider <b>Plug Power</b> (NASDAQ:PLUG). Analyst Amit Dayal of H.C. Wainwright sees Plug Power heading to $78, which is a far cry from its closing price of $27.19, as of this past weekend. Dayal's Street-high price target implies a 187% increase in Plug's shares.</p>\n<p>The excitement surrounding Plug Power has to do with developed countries emphasizing green-energy alternatives to reduce carbon emissions. Plug's hydrogen fuel cells can be used to power consumer and commercial vehicles, and they have industrial applications, as well (e.g., forklifts). Further, there's an opportunity for the company to benefit at multiple levels of this green-energy shift, such as in building hydrogen refilling stations.</p>\n<p>The buzz surrounding this company hit a crescendo in January, shortly after Plug landed two major partnerships. First, SK Group took a 10% equity stake in the company and agreed to form a joint venture to bring fuel-cell technology to South Korea and other Asian countries. A few days later, Plug and French automaker <b>Renault</b> struck an agreement to form a joint venture to go after Europe's light commercial-vehicle market.</p>\n<p>There's absolutely no question that Plug Power has top-notch joint-venture partners and an incredible opportunity at its doorstep. The big question is: Can it grow into its current $16 billion market cap with profitability still years away? To that end, I'm not so certain.</p>\n<h2>Columbia Care: Implied upside of 228%</h2>\n<p>Marijuana stocks are another source of supercharged growth potential. In particular, U.S. multistate operator (MSO) <b>Columbia Care</b> (OTC:CCHWF) offers jaw-dropping upside. With the highest price target on Wall Street calling for $12 a share, and Columbia Care ending the previous week at $3.66, the upside potential here totals 228% over the coming year.</p>\n<p>Like a number of smartly run MSOs, Columbia Care has predominantly targeted limited-license cannabis markets. These are markets where regulators purposely limit how many dispensaries can open, as well as how many licenses a single business can hold. By planting its flag in limited-license markets like Ohio, Virginia, and Pennsylvania, Columbia Care is ensuring that it'll have a fair shot to build up its brands and garner a loyal following in potential billion-dollar markets without being overrun by other MSOs that have deeper pockets.</p>\n<p>The other factor that really stands out with Columbia Care is its penchant for inorganic growth. This is a company that's been pulling the trigger on multiple acquisitions each year to expand its reach. As of last week, it had 75 operating dispensaries in legalized states.</p>\n<p>For the moment, the <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-time costs associated with acquisitions appears to be holding down Columbia Care's bottom line, as well as its valuation. But if the company's management team can effectively build up its brand in a number of key markets, this lofty price target may not be out of reach.</p>\n<h2>Exelixis: Implied upside of 201%</h2>\n<p>Biotech stocks can be like the roulette wheel of Wall Street. While the odds of a company developing a breakthrough drug aren't great, the payoff, if successful, can be huge.</p>\n<p>In the case of <b>Exelixis</b> (NASDAQ:EXEL), the payoff has been substantial. But according to analyst Michael King of H.C. Wainwright, this company has the potential to hit $65 a share. This would effectively triple its valuation, based on where it closed this past week.</p>\n<p>The key to Exelixis' long-term success rests with cancer drug Cabometyx, which is approved to treat first- and second-line renal cell carcinoma and advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. By no later than next year, it should be generating north of $1 billion in recurring annual sales.</p>\n<p>What's so intriguing about Exelixis' lead drug is that it's being studied in approximately six dozen clinical trials as a combination treatment or monotherapy. Though not all of these studies will be successful, it nevertheless offers a solid opportunity for Cabometyx's label to expand over time.</p>\n<p>Exelixis is also sitting on a mountain of cash and investments -- it's expected to end the year with between $1.7 billion and $1.8 billion. This capital is helping to fuel its internal research engine and could be used to acquire other therapies or businesses. While I don't believe Exelixis will come close to $65 a share in the near term, I do foresee healthy upside in its future.</p>\n<h2>Inovio Pharmaceuticals: Implied upside of 434%</h2>\n<p>But the crème de la crème of upside opportunity, at least on this list, is clinical-stage biotech stock <b>Inovio Pharmaceuticals</b> (NASDAQ:INO). According to analyst Hartaj Singh of Oppenheimer, Inovio is forecast to hit $35 a share. Based on its $6.55 closing price last week, this implies up to 434% upside in Inovio's shares.</p>\n<p>Most of Singh's bullishness is centered around Inovio's development of a coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine. With billions of people worldwide still needing to be inoculated, there's room for additional vaccine players.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, Inovio's development of its COVID-19 vaccine, INO-4800, has been just as dubious as its long-term drug-development track record. Last year, it looked as if Inovio had a real shot to be one of the first developers to hit the market with a COVID-19 vaccine. Unfortunately, Inovio's plans were derailed by partial clinical holds in the United States. To boot, the U.S. eventually pulled phase 3 trial funding, which has forced Inovio to conduct its large-scale phase 3 study in Mexico and other countries around the globe.</p>\n<p>Perhaps the bigger worry here is that, despite a robust clinical pipeline, Inovio has yet to bring a drug to pharmacy shelves more than 40 years after its founding. Inovio has been lucky enough to raise capital to keep its research going, but it's never been able to deliver on the hype surrounding the company. Suffice it to say, I don't foresee a $35 price target coming to fruition anytime soon, if ever.</p>","source":"fool_stock","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>4 Growth Stocks With 187% to 434% Upside, According to Wall Street</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: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\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\">\n4 Growth Stocks With 187% to 434% Upside, According to Wall Street\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-10-14 11:12 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/10/13/4-growth-stocks-with-187-to-434-upside-wall-street/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>For much of the past 18 months, Wall Street and investors have enjoyed an historic stock market rally.

First, SK Group took a 10% equity stake in the company and agreed to form a joint venture to bring fuel-cell technology to South Korea and other Asian countries. A few days later, Plug and French automaker Renault struck an agreement to form a joint venture to go after Europe's light commercial-vehicle market.\nThere's absolutely no question that Plug Power has top-notch joint-venture partners and an incredible opportunity at its doorstep. The big question is: Can it grow into its current $16 billion market cap with profitability still years away? To that end, I'm not so certain.\nColumbia Care: Implied upside of 228%\nMarijuana stocks are another source of supercharged growth potential. In particular, U.S. multistate operator (MSO) Columbia Care (OTC:CCHWF) offers jaw-dropping upside. With the highest price target on Wall Street calling for $12 a share, and Columbia Care ending the previous week at $3.66, the upside potential here totals 228% over the coming year.\nLike a number of smartly run MSOs, Columbia Care has predominantly targeted limited-license cannabis markets. These are markets where regulators purposely limit how many dispensaries can open, as well as how many licenses a single business can hold. By planting its flag in limited-license markets like Ohio, Virginia, and Pennsylvania, Columbia Care is ensuring that it'll have a fair shot to build up its brands and garner a loyal following in potential billion-dollar markets without being overrun by other MSOs that have deeper pockets.\nThe other factor that really stands out with Columbia Care is its penchant for inorganic growth. This is a company that's been pulling the trigger on multiple acquisitions each year to expand its reach. As of last week, it had 75 operating dispensaries in legalized states.\nFor the moment, the one-time costs associated with acquisitions appears to be holding down Columbia Care's bottom line, as well as its valuation. But if the company's management team can effectively build up its brand in a number of key markets, this lofty price target may not be out of reach.\nExelixis: Implied upside of 201%\nBiotech stocks can be like the roulette wheel of Wall Street. While the odds of a company developing a breakthrough drug aren't great, the payoff, if successful, can be huge.\nIn the case of Exelixis (NASDAQ:EXEL), the payoff has been substantial. But according to analyst Michael King of H.C. Wainwright, this company has the potential to hit $65 a share. This would effectively triple its valuation, based on where it closed this past week.\nThe key to Exelixis' long-term success rests with cancer drug Cabometyx, which is approved to treat first- and second-line renal cell carcinoma and advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. By no later than next year, it should be generating north of $1 billion in recurring annual sales.\nWhat's so intriguing about Exelixis' lead drug is that it's being studied in approximately six dozen clinical trials as a combination treatment or monotherapy. Though not all of these studies will be successful, it nevertheless offers a solid opportunity for Cabometyx's label to expand over time.\nExelixis is also sitting on a mountain of cash and investments -- it's expected to end the year with between $1.7 billion and $1.8 billion. This capital is helping to fuel its internal research engine and could be used to acquire other therapies or businesses. While I don't believe Exelixis will come close to $65 a share in the near term, I do foresee healthy upside in its future.\nInovio Pharmaceuticals: Implied upside of 434%\nBut the crème de la crème of upside opportunity, at least on this list, is clinical-stage biotech stock Inovio Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:INO). According to analyst Hartaj Singh of Oppenheimer, Inovio is forecast to hit $35 a share. Based on its $6.55 closing price last week, this implies up to 434% upside in Inovio's shares.\nMost of Singh's bullishness is centered around Inovio's development of a coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine. With billions of people worldwide still needing to be inoculated, there's room for additional vaccine players.\nOn the other hand, Inovio's development of its COVID-19 vaccine, INO-4800, has been just as dubious as its long-term drug-development track record. Last year, it looked as if Inovio had a real shot to be one of the first developers to hit the market with a COVID-19 vaccine. Unfortunately, Inovio's plans were derailed by partial clinical holds in the United States. To boot, the U.S. eventually pulled phase 3 trial funding, which has forced Inovio to conduct its large-scale phase 3 study in Mexico and other countries around the globe.\nPerhaps the bigger worry here is that, despite a robust clinical pipeline, Inovio has yet to bring a drug to pharmacy shelves more than 40 years after its founding. Inovio has been lucky enough to raise capital to keep its research going, but it's never been able to deliver on the hype surrounding the company. Suffice it to say, I don't foresee a $35 price target coming to fruition anytime soon, if ever.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"CCHWF":0.9,"EXEL":0.9,"INO":0.9,"PLUG":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1887,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":867702455,"gmtCreate":1633312056366,"gmtModify":1633312165628,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Time to buy or wait?","listText":"Time to buy or wait?","text":"Time to buy or wait?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/867702455","repostId":"1114921615","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1114921615","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1633304045,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1114921615?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-10-04 07:34","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Top Wall Street analysts picks these 5 stocks for the fourth quarter","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1114921615","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"TipRanks is a financial data aggregator that uses its dynamic system like a radar, picking up what W","content":"<p>TipRanks is a financial data aggregator that uses its dynamic system like a radar, picking up what Wall Street’s analysts have to say about the current market atmosphere.

(SeeNike stock chartson TipRanks)\nPoser rated the stock a Buy, and declared a price target of $196.\nThe five-star analyst asserted that despite the supply chain challenges, “the global health of the Nike brand has never been better.” He perceives the headwinds to be of short-lived concern for investors and the company, and expects Nike to outperform its peers in both the near and distant future.\nIn its earnings call, Nike lowered its guidance expectations, but Poser calculates that the apparel retailer is on track to meet 2025 targets.\nThe Covid-19 pandemic had initially dragged down brick and mortar store sales, but this metric has nearly rebounded to the status it held before the government-mandated lockdowns. In North America, in-store sales increased more than 50% quarter-over-quarter, indicating a “robust demand” for Nike merchandise.\nIn a pool of over 7,000 expert analysts, Poser is rated by TipRanks as No. 249. His stock ratings have earned him a success rate of 55%, and brought him an average return of 24.8%.\nOtonomo Technologies Ltd \nFor SaaS companies, big data is the name of the game.\nThe power of processing billions of data points from millions of vehicles on the road has provided Otonomo Technologies (OTMO) with a promising business model. The data analytics firm recently went public, and analysts now see even more upside and opportunity for monetization of its product offerings. (SeeOtonomo stock analysison TipRanks)\nOne of those bullish analysts is Jack Andrews of Needham & Co., who wrote thatOtonomooperates a “linchpin technology” that unlocks revenue for original equipment manufacturer and connected car investments.” From his calculations, the stock provides a “favorable risk/reward setup with material upside,” if it is successful in capturing its full potential.\nAndrews initiated a Buy rating on the stock, and determined a 12-month price target of $10 per share.\nThe top analyst explained that the company has created a bridge between two promising sectors: automotive data and its analytics. As connected car prevalence increases, so do the number of possible applications for the data they generate. He noted that beyond major car manufacturers, new revenue opportunities could arise from insurance companies and concierge platforms incorporating OTMO’s data.\nIn addition to enterprise players, Otonomo provides intelligence for municipal governments about how to design safer and more efficient urban plans.\nOne concern for the firm is a potential regulatory shift toward consumer privacy of the information shared by the vehicles, which would disrupt OTMO’s standards of data.\nOut of more than 7,000 analysts on TipRanks, Andrews ranks as No.158. Of his ratings, he succeeded 63% of the time, and returned an average of 25.3% on each one.\nMarriott Vacations Worldwide \nThe Covid-19 pandemic has proved a formidable foe for the travel and leisure industry. After repeated government mandated shutdowns, the delta variant arrived late spring and caused more disruption. Marriot Vacations Worldwide (VAC) survived the storm, and is remaining relevant even in the current dynamic climate.\nDavid Katz of Jefferies asserted that the company is poised for upside, and is one of his top stock picks for the leisure industry. (SeeMarriot Vacations insider trading activityon TipRanks)\nKatz rated the stock a Buy, and assigned a 12-month price target of $190.\nThis bullish target takes into account headwinds from Covid-19, as well as ongoing wildfires across the western U.S. He expects the built-up consumer demand for vacations and timeshares to lead the company toward recovering from its pandemic-induced losses.\nWhile the entire industry is set to experience this strong demand, Katz believes thatVAC’s links to Marriot International (MAR) and its brand awareness set it apart from the competition. Additionally, this connection gives VAC “access to the largest loyalty program in hospitality,” providing the firm with a massive installed base.\nOn TipRanks, Katz comes in at No. 418 out of more than 7,000 financial analysts. From his ratings, he was successful 62% of the time, and brought in an average return of 21% per rating.\nDell Technologies$(DELL)$ \nDell Technologies(DELL) recently held its pivotal investor day, and laid out a clear roadmap to increasing free cash flow, market share, and general direction for the company in the long-term. Share repurchasing schemes, a focus on premium consumer products, and potential upside in infrastructure projects, all point the multinational tech firm toward an eventual higher valuation.\nAmit Daryanani of Evercore ISI reported on the conference, bullishly reiterating a Buy rating and a 12-month $114 price target.\nDaryanani explained that Dell announced a share repurchase program worth $5 billion in stock, as well as a quarterly dividend. In an effort to increase free cash flow, the tech company will keep its investments in mergers and acquisitions at a less significant profile. The analyst said that the conference sentiment was on-par to above his expectations. (SeeDell Technologies risk factorson TipRanks)\nDell’s infrastructure and cloud-based storage facing businesses could see “substantial opportunity” in the long-term, such as in remote access solutions and telecommunications software. The Covid-19 pandemic and the work-from-home shift bolstered trends toward PCs and gaming hardware. Dell understands this and intends to focus on more premium products for everyday consumers.\nRanking No. 355 out of over 7,000 analysts on TipRanks, Daryanani maintains a 63% success rate on his ratings. His stock picks currently average out to a 16.6% return.\nActivision Blizzard$(ATVI)$ \nWhile individuals were under pandemic-induced lockdowns, many people picked up playing video games as a way to pass the time. The companies that produce these game franchises benefitted from the trend, andActivision Blizzard(ATVI) was no outlier. Now, the firm has a “wave of content” headed to consumers’ consoles, and analysts are bullish on the strong pipeline.\nAndrew Uerkwitz of Jefferies delineated his bullish hypothesis on the stock, stating that Activision has an “underappreciated portfolio of high-quality content in the fastest growing segment in entertainment.”\nUerkwitz declared the stock a Buy, and assigned a 12-month price target of $120 per share.\nAfter running several possible scenarios regarding release dates and consumer reception for its upcoming titles, the five-star analyst still finds it hard to imagine further downside, even in bearish cases. Uerkwitz calculated a situation wherein a particular title underperformed, and Activision Blizzard still exceeded estimates for FY2021 earnings per share. (SeeActivision Blizzard’s earnings historyon TipRanks)\nThe company maintains strong gross margins, which are providing it with significant operating leverage. Elaborating on Activision’s options, Uerkwitz added that it has tools for growth, such as share buyback schemes and investments in content, and can explore inorganic expansion through mergers and acquisitions.\nActivision recently came to a settlement with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission regarding a sexual harassment case. In his opinion, Uerkwitz sees the $18 million deal with the U.S. federal agency as a speed bump in an otherwise smooth year. The settlement removes concerns over worse regulatory penalties, although a less-than-stellar work environment could prove as downside if talent is to be driven away.\nOn TipRanks, Uerkwitz maintains a rank of No. 122 out of over 7,000 expert analysts. His success rate stands at 62%, and per rating he averages a return of 27.7%.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1857,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":862759747,"gmtCreate":1632917849549,"gmtModify":1632917849907,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Phone to be made cheaper?","listText":"Phone to be made cheaper?","text":"Phone to be made cheaper?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/862759747","repostId":"2171811529","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2171811529","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1632917452,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2171811529?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-29 20:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Google tells EU court payments to phone makers gave Android a chance against Apple","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2171811529","media":"Reuters","summary":"LUXEMBOURG (Reuters) - Payments to phone makers to pre-install only Google Search on their devices w","content":"<p>LUXEMBOURG (Reuters) - Payments to phone makers to pre-install only Google Search on their devices were not aimed at preventing competition but were necessary for Android to seize market share from Apple, Alphabet's Google told Europe's second-top court on Wednesday.</p>\n<p>Google was addressing the General Court on the third day of a week-long hearing as it tries to get judges to dismiss a record 4.3-billion-euro ($3.7 billion) EU antitrust fine and a European Commission order to loosen its search engine grip on Android devices.</p>\n<p>The EU competition watchdog had taken issue with two kinds of deals made with phone makers, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> being payments for only pre-installing Google Search on their devices known as revenue sharing arrangements (RSAs) because these shut out rivals.</p>\n<p>This was not the case and the payments were just to encourage phone makers, which were already generating money from other apps, to give Android a place, Google lawyer Assimakis Komninos told the court.</p>\n<p>\"Google had to offer an offsetting revenue stream.

My three stocks to avoid last week were all over the place -- flat, soaring 23%, and climbing 8% -- averaging out to a 10.3% increase.</p>\n<p>The <b>S&amp;P 500</b> rose a mere 0.5% for the week, so I lost badly to the market. Still, I have come out ahead in 10 of the past 14 weeks. Let's see if I can bounce back. This week I see <b>Bed Bath &amp; Beyond </b>(NASDAQ:BBBY), <b>Robinhood Markets </b>(NASDAQ:HOOD), and <b>American Airlines Group</b> (NASDAQ:AAL) as vulnerable investments in the near term. Here's why I think these are three stocks to avoid this week.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/844fa22418b0d6398103c6917b0d7eb3\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"459\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Bed Bath &amp; Beyond</h2>\n<p>One would think a superstore chain selling housewares would be booming through the pandemic. We're spending a lot of time at home, and sprucing up our digs has helped boost the prospects of many companies providing home goods that are going through more wear and tear than in the pre-COVID-19 days.</p>\n<p>Bed Bath &amp; Beyond didn't get the memo. Revenue has fallen for three consecutive fiscal years. It has fallen short of Wall Street's profit targets in two of the past three quarters, and that's important since the struggling retailer is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the few companies reporting financial results this week.</p>\n<p>Bed Bath &amp; Beyond announces its fiscal-second quarter results on Wednesday morning. Momentum and recent history suggest it won't be very impressive.</p>\n<h2>Robinhood Markets</h2>\n<p>Stocks I own personally aren't immune to making the cut on this list, and that brings us to Robinhood Markets. The next-gen trading exchange that ushered in the era of commission-free trading is coming off a great quarter of growth, but the current quarter that ends later this week will be a different story.</p>\n<p>Robinhood's second quarter was strong this summer, as revenue soared 131%. The rub is that stock trading revenue actually declined and now accounts for less than 10% of the top-line mix. Robinhood is leaning on options and crypto trading for its revenue -- and that's problematic. Even more problematic is that <b>Dogecoin</b> (CRYPTO:DOGE) was the most popular trade on Robinhood in the second quarter, and volume on that crypto has fallen by roughly 75% this quarter. There are also more places for folks to trade Dogecoin now.</p>\n<p>Robinhood's announcement last week that it's launching crypto wallets should help wean the platform off of meme crypto like Dogecoin. Fundamentals-driver crytpo traders will take Robinhood more seriously when they know that they can take their more conventional investments off the platform. However, the current quarter will still be sequential letdown, and with the stock still trading above its July IPO price, there's always the incentive for the more than 300,000 Robinhood traders that got in on the stock at the ground floor to take their profits.</p>\n<h2>American Airlines</h2>\n<p>One of the stocks that didn't go my way last week was American Airlines. Shares of the legacy carrier rose 8% for the week on mixed news.

My three stocks to avoid last week were all over the place -- flat, soaring 23%, and climbing 8% -- averaging out to a 10.3% increase.\nThe S&P 500 rose a mere 0.5% for the week, so I lost badly to the market. Still, I have come out ahead in 10 of the past 14 weeks. Let's see if I can bounce back. This week I see Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY), Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ:HOOD), and American Airlines Group (NASDAQ:AAL) as vulnerable investments in the near term. Here's why I think these are three stocks to avoid this week.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nBed Bath & Beyond\nOne would think a superstore chain selling housewares would be booming through the pandemic. We're spending a lot of time at home, and sprucing up our digs has helped boost the prospects of many companies providing home goods that are going through more wear and tear than in the pre-COVID-19 days.\nBed Bath & Beyond didn't get the memo. Revenue has fallen for three consecutive fiscal years. It has fallen short of Wall Street's profit targets in two of the past three quarters, and that's important since the struggling retailer is one of the few companies reporting financial results this week.\nBed Bath & Beyond announces its fiscal-second quarter results on Wednesday morning. Momentum and recent history suggest it won't be very impressive.\nRobinhood Markets\nStocks I own personally aren't immune to making the cut on this list, and that brings us to Robinhood Markets. The next-gen trading exchange that ushered in the era of commission-free trading is coming off a great quarter of growth, but the current quarter that ends later this week will be a different story.\nRobinhood's second quarter was strong this summer, as revenue soared 131%. The rub is that stock trading revenue actually declined and now accounts for less than 10% of the top-line mix. Robinhood is leaning on options and crypto trading for its revenue -- and that's problematic. Even more problematic is that Dogecoin (CRYPTO:DOGE) was the most popular trade on Robinhood in the second quarter, and volume on that crypto has fallen by roughly 75% this quarter. There are also more places for folks to trade Dogecoin now.\nRobinhood's announcement last week that it's launching crypto wallets should help wean the platform off of meme crypto like Dogecoin. Fundamentals-driver crytpo traders will take Robinhood more seriously when they know that they can take their more conventional investments off the platform. However, the current quarter will still be sequential letdown, and with the stock still trading above its July IPO price, there's always the incentive for the more than 300,000 Robinhood traders that got in on the stock at the ground floor to take their profits.\nAmerican Airlines\nOne of the stocks that didn't go my way last week was American Airlines. Shares of the legacy carrier rose 8% for the week on mixed news. The good news is that the U.S. cleared the way for vaccinated European visitors to travel to the country, even if it remains risky given the large number of breakthrough COVID-19 cases in the U.S. these days. The bad news is that the Department of Justice is looking into the potentially anticompetitive nature of the alliance between American Airlines and JetBlue (NASDAQ:JBLU).\nGiven the sorry state of the airline industry these days, it may be hard to bust up a partnership of two profitless players as being anticompetitive in nature. The bigger problem for American is that it's still a lumbering legacy carrier in an industry that's facing waning demand from corporate and to a lesser extent leisure travel.\nIf you're looking for safe stocks, you aren't likely to find them in Bed Bath & Beyond, Robinhood Markets, and American Airlines this week.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAL":0.9,"BBBY":0.9,"HOOD":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1918,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":868251535,"gmtCreate":1632660999827,"gmtModify":1632798726269,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Time to buy?","listText":"Time to buy?","text":"Time to buy?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/868251535","repostId":"1142057327","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1142057327","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1632643246,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1142057327?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-26 16:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Intel Starts Construction of Two Arizona Computer Chip Factories","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1142057327","media":"The street","summary":"Intel broke ground on two new computer chip factories in Arizona as part of a $20 billion project to","content":"<p>Intel broke ground on two new computer chip factories in Arizona as part of a $20 billion project to help meet the high demand for semiconductors in the U.S.</p>\n<p>Intel&nbsp;(<b>INTC</b>) -Get Intel Corporation (INTC) Report&nbsp;on Friday broke ground on two new computer chip factories in Arizona as part of a $20 billion project to help&nbsp;alleviate the severe shortage of semiconductors in the U.S.</p>\n<p>The Santa Clara, Calif.-basedsemiconductor chip manufacturer'sCEO Pat Gelsinger led the project's groundbreaking ceremony at the company's Ocotillo campus in Chandler, Ariz., marking the largest private investment in the state's history.</p>\n<p>Intel expects the factories to be fully operational in 2024 to manufacture the company's most advanced process technologies.</p>\n<p>“Today’s celebration marks an important milestone as we work to boost capacity and meet the incredible demand for semiconductors: the foundational technology for the digitization of everything,\" Gelsinger said in acompany statement. \"We are ushering in a new era of innovation – for Intel, for Arizona and for the world.

We currently intend to use the remaining net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, including to fund our growth, acquire complementary businesses, products, services, or technologies, working capital, operating expenses, and capital expenditures.\n\n\n Source: SEC\n\nManagement's presentation of the company roadshow isavailable here.\nRegarding outstanding legal proceedings, management did not disclose any legal claims against the firm as of the regulatory filing date.\nListed underwriters of the IPO are JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, BofA Securities, and other investment banks.\nValuation Metrics\nBelow is a table of the firm's relevant capitalization and valuation metrics at IPO, excluding the effects of underwriter options:\n\n\n\n\nMeasure [TTM]\nAmount\n\n\nMarket Capitalization at IPO\n$3,862,956,720\n\n\nEnterprise Value\n$3,656,695,720\n\n\nPrice / Sales\n21.09\n\n\nEV / Revenue\n19.96\n\n\nEV / EBITDA\n377.37\n\n\nEarnings Per Share\n$0.00\n\n\nFloat To Outstanding Shares Ratio\n9.04%\n\n\nProposed IPO Midpoint Price per Share\n$24.00\n\n\nNet Free Cash Flow\n$25,236,000\n\n\nFree Cash Flow Yield Per Share\n0.65%\n\n\nRevenue Growth Rate\n58.59%\n\n\n\n\nSource: SEC\nAs a reference, a potential public comparable would be NICE Ltd.; shown below is a comparison of their primary valuation metrics:\n\n\n\n\nMetric\nNice Ltd.\nEngageSmart\nVariance\n\n\nPrice / Sales\n11.01\n21.09\n91.5%\n\n\nEV / Revenue\n10.67\n19.96\n87.1%\n\n\nEV / EBITDA\n41.73\n377.37\n804.3%\n\n\nEarnings Per Share\n$3.05\n$0.00\n-100.0%\n\n\nRevenue Growth Rate\n5.3%\n58.59%\n1003.34%\n\n\n\n\n(S-1/A andSeeking Alpha)\nCommentary\nESMT is seeking public investment to pay down debt and for its general unspecified corporate growth plans.\nThe firm's financials show strong topline revenue growth and gross profit growth, operating profit and a swing to slight net profit along with growing cash flow from operations.\nFree cash flow for the twelve months ended June 30, 2021, was a solid $25.2 million.\nSelling and Marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenue have dropped as revenue has increased and its Selling and Marketing efficiency rate dropped to 1.1x in the most recent six-month reporting period.\nThe company's Rule of 40 performance was excellent and its dollar-based net revenue retention rate for the year ended December 31, 2020, was 124%, a strong result.\nThe market opportunity for providing customer engagement software to businesses is large and expected to double in size by the end of 2026, so the company will be helped by strong industry growth dynamics.\nJPMorgan is the lead left underwriter and IPOs led by the firm over the last 12-month period have generated an average return of 20.4% since their IPO. This is a mid-tier performance for all major underwriters during the period.\nThe primary risk to the company's outlook is the ability for larger firms to bundle some of their services into their existing offerings, resulting in downward pricing pressure and greater competition.\nAs for valuation, compared to partial competitor NICE, ESMT is growing revenue much faster and so its much higher revenue multiples would appear to be justified.\nAlso, the company is growing much faster than competitor Pegasystems, so seems to be taking market share from these and other companies in the customer engagement market.\nGiven the firm's strong growth and operating metrics versus its competitors, while the IPO isn't cheap, it is worth consideration.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"ESMT":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":390,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":869427331,"gmtCreate":1632318298823,"gmtModify":1632801287812,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go go go!","listText":"Go go go!","text":"Go go go!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/869427331","repostId":"1146187405","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":271,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":887565006,"gmtCreate":1632067028805,"gmtModify":1632803046234,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yeah WFH is great!","listText":"Yeah WFH is great!","text":"Yeah WFH is great!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/887565006","repostId":"2168152508","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2168152508","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1631998800,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2168152508?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-19 05:00","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"No longer cool to live near the office?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2168152508","media":"The Straits Times","summary":"(BLOOMBERG) - Affluent New Yorkers used to pay a premium to live in apartments that are within walki","content":"<div>\n<p>(BLOOMBERG) - Affluent New Yorkers used to pay a premium to live in apartments that are within walking distance to their offices in the city.

The pandemic has turned that calculus upside down.\nThat is the conclusion from AEI Housing Centre research, which found that all but two of the 20 sharpest declines in metro-area home values from 2018 to 2021 are in Manhattan zip codes, including drops of about 10 per cent in parts of Greenwich Village and Soho.\nThe trend may not reverse any time soon. Higher earners, who are more likely to have the opportunity to work from home, are now looking away from city centres in search of amenities such as greater living areas, office space, lots and access to open spaces, according to the AEI Housing Centre, which is part of the American Enterprise Institute think-tank in Washington.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA new survey published recently by the Pew Research Centre confirmed the trend. Some 60 per cent of respondents - up 7 percentage points from 2019 - said they prefer living in a community with bigger houses, even if that means shops and schools are farther away.\nA shift was already under way before Covid-19 hit, with affluent families moving out and younger people with lower incomes moving into some of the most walkable parts of big cities, according to Mr Tobias Peter, director of research at the AIE Housing Centre.\n\"We're seeing this has just been turbocharged\" by the pandemic, he said. Higher earners \"are freed from being shackled to their desk or their employer. So now they can move virtually across the entire country\".\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn the second quarter, net migration out of urban neighbourhoods continued to be more than double the pace observed before the pandemic, according to a report by policy economist Stephan Whitaker at the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland. \"This flow of middle-aged people moving out to purchase homes in the suburbs is balancing a swelling return of young renters to urban neighbourhoods,\" he wrote.\nFrom 2012 to the start of the pandemic, housing values in the most walkable areas in New York City had appreciated cumulatively by about 45 per cent. Walkable is defined as a 10-minute distance by foot from commercial amenities and maybe a transit station.\nThe pre-Covid-19 boom gave New Yorkers arbitrage opportunities that the AEI Housing Centre quantified by tracking buyers through public records and changes of address at the post office. People selling a property in the New York City metro area and buying one in Florida spent about 70 per cent to 80 per cent of the proceeds on the new home, based on the median price. Whether they moved to Orlando, Fort Myers or Sarasota, they lost on \"walkability\", the data shows.\nMs Danielle Hale, chief economist at Realtor.com, cautions against writing off the attraction of lively city centres. Even though the coronavirus and its variants are here to stay, at least for now, many people will still want to be in close proximity to others, where they can benefit from the culture and the social interactions.\n\"My expectation is that it's likely to be temporary,\" she said.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":588,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":887912518,"gmtCreate":1631957258234,"gmtModify":1632805085645,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Prices to go up?","listText":"Prices to go up?","text":"Prices to go up?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/887912518","repostId":"2168574191","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2168574191","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1631928823,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2168574191?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-18 09:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Pfizer Covid-19 shot's protection against hospitalisation wanes in study","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2168574191","media":"The Straits Times","summary":"WASHINGTON (BLOOMBERG) - Pfizer's Covid-19 vaccine declined in protection against hospitalisation af","content":"<div>\n<p>WASHINGTON (BLOOMBERG) - Pfizer's Covid-19 vaccine declined in protection against hospitalisation after four months, while Moderna's remained stable, US researchers found in an analysis of data from ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"http://www.straitstimes.com/world/united-states/pfizer-covid-19-shots-protection-against-hospitalisation-wanes-in-study\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"straits_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The researchers noted that the vaccine effectiveness differences between Moderna and Pfizer's shots, which both use a mechanism called messenger RNA, could be due to differences in timings between doses.\nThe second dose of the Pfizer vaccine is typically delivered after three weeks, while Moderna patients wait four weeks.\nThey also noted several limitations to the study, including the fact that a relatively small number of patients had received the J&J vaccine compared with the mRNA vaccines.\nPrevious studies have found that Moderna's vaccine appears to generate more antibodies than Pfizer's, though it's not clear if antibodies are even the most important component in immunity over the long term.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"PFE":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":376,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":885521130,"gmtCreate":1631804332120,"gmtModify":1631888786987,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Should we buy or wait???","listText":"Should we buy or wait???","text":"Should we buy or wait???","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/885521130","repostId":"2167951084","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":298,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":886032559,"gmtCreate":1631537237171,"gmtModify":1631888786999,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Time to buy?","listText":"Time to buy?","text":"Time to buy?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/886032559","repostId":"1129341543","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129341543","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1631534652,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1129341543?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-13 20:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Toplines Before US Market Open on Monday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129341543","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"U.S. stock index futures rose on Monday after the S&P 500 logged its worst week in more than two mon","content":"<p>U.S. stock index futures rose on Monday after the S&amp;P 500 logged its worst week in more than two months, with investors keeping a close eye on inflation as well as monetary and tax policies.</p>\n<p>S&amp;P 500 E-minis were up 23.25 points, or 0.52% at 08:00 am ET.

In the coming weeks, we’ll get results from a few influential and closely followed companies, including a major technology firm and homebuilder. These earnings will bring to a close what has been, by all accounts, a&nbsp;stellar season&nbsp;of corporate results.</p>\n<p>Over the past several months, we have witnessed a parade of better-than-expected quarterly earnings from both small and large companies. The strong earnings are expected to continue through the rest of this year, with&nbsp;<b>Wells Fargo</b>(NYSE:<b><u>WFC</u></b>)&nbsp;recently forecasting&nbsp;that strong financial results will lift the S&amp;P 500 index a further 8% through the end of December.</p>\n<p>Here are four companies with earnings reports the week of September 13:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Oracle</b>(NYSE:<b><u>ORCL</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Lennar</b>(NYSE:<b><u>LEN</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Birks Group</b>(NYSEAMERICAN:<b><u>BGI</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Oracle (ORCL)</b></p>\n<p>The lone large cap technology company reporting earnings in the week ahead is database and enterprise software giant Oracle. On Sept. 13, the Austin, Texas-based company will report its fiscal first quarter 2022 results. Any beat to the upside should add to ORCL stock’s&nbsp;already considerable momentum.</p>\n<p>Year-to-date the company’s shares are up almost 40% at a Sept. 10 opening price of just under $90. The latest rally, which has been ongoing since mid-June, could get a second wind if Oracle manages to impress Wall Street with its latest numbers.</p>\n<p>Wall Street is looking for Oracle to report revenues of $9.77 billion and earnings per share of $0.97 for its first quarter. Analysts expect the company’s&nbsp;earnings to be powered&nbsp;by its cloud infrastructure business, which has taken off this year as a growing number of businesses accelerate their migration to cloud computing and storage. Oracle is also getting a boost from the rollout of 5G wireless networking. In its previous quarterly earnings report, Oracle was expected to&nbsp;announce EPS&nbsp;of $1.31 per share, but ended up reporting $1.54 per share instead, beating the street by an impressive 17.56%.</p>\n<p><b>Lennar (LEN)</b></p>\n<p>Lennar, the largest homebuilder in the U.S., reports its latest earnings on Sept. 20. And, as always, investors, analysts and economists will be watching closely for signs of health in the American housing market.</p>\n<p>LEN stock has done well this year, rising 33% since January to now trade at just over $100 a share. However, the stock has moved in fits and starts in recent months. In the last 30 days, Lennar’s share price has&nbsp;pulled back 4%&nbsp;from its 52-week high of $110.61.

In the coming weeks, we’ll get results from a few influential and closely followed companies, including a major technology firm and homebuilder. These earnings will bring to a close what has been, by all accounts, a stellar season of corporate results.\nOver the past several months, we have witnessed a parade of better-than-expected quarterly earnings from both small and large companies. The strong earnings are expected to continue through the rest of this year, with Wells Fargo(NYSE:WFC) recently forecasting that strong financial results will lift the S&P 500 index a further 8% through the end of December.\nHere are four companies with earnings reports the week of September 13:\n\nOracle(NYSE:ORCL)\nLennar(NYSE:LEN)\nBirks Group(NYSEAMERICAN:BGI)\n\nOracle (ORCL)\nThe lone large cap technology company reporting earnings in the week ahead is database and enterprise software giant Oracle. On Sept. 13, the Austin, Texas-based company will report its fiscal first quarter 2022 results. Any beat to the upside should add to ORCL stock’s already considerable momentum.\nYear-to-date the company’s shares are up almost 40% at a Sept. 10 opening price of just under $90. The latest rally, which has been ongoing since mid-June, could get a second wind if Oracle manages to impress Wall Street with its latest numbers.\nWall Street is looking for Oracle to report revenues of $9.77 billion and earnings per share of $0.97 for its first quarter. Analysts expect the company’s earnings to be powered by its cloud infrastructure business, which has taken off this year as a growing number of businesses accelerate their migration to cloud computing and storage. Oracle is also getting a boost from the rollout of 5G wireless networking. In its previous quarterly earnings report, Oracle was expected to announce EPS of $1.31 per share, but ended up reporting $1.54 per share instead, beating the street by an impressive 17.56%.\nLennar (LEN)\nLennar, the largest homebuilder in the U.S., reports its latest earnings on Sept. 20. And, as always, investors, analysts and economists will be watching closely for signs of health in the American housing market.\nLEN stock has done well this year, rising 33% since January to now trade at just over $100 a share. However, the stock has moved in fits and starts in recent months. In the last 30 days, Lennar’s share price has pulled back 4% from its 52-week high of $110.61. With a trailing price-to-earnings ratio of just 9.79, Lennar’s stock looks undervalued.\nLennar has been benefitting this year from the booming housing market that has been fueled by low interest rates and a desire for people to upgrade their home during the pandemic. Wall Street certainly has high expectations for the company’s upcoming earnings.\nAnalysts are looking for Lennar to report revenues of $6.86 billion, which would be a 17% increase from a year earlier. Earnings per share are forecast to come in at $3.28. With interest rates expected to remain at rock bottom lows until at least the middle of next year, Lennar and its shareholders should continue to reap rewards.\nBirks Group (BGI)\nNow for a penny stock that has shown real moxie this year. Montreal, Quebec-based jeweler Birks Group is currently estimated to report its earnings on Sept. 16, and the results could extend what has already been an incredible year for BGI stock.\nSince January, Birks Group share price has grown 187%, rising from $0.84 to its current level of $2.50. In March of this year, the stock was as high as $5.43 before retreating by 54% to its current price. The growth (and volatility) in the stock price can be attributed to gradually improving sales as it reopened most of its 29 retail outlets in its native Canada and the U.S.\nBirks should perform well in the final months of the year and during the holidays, which is traditionally the strongest sales period for its jewelry and gift items. Owing to its penny stock status, there are no real analyst forecasts for the company’s upcoming earnings. However, in its previous quarter, the company announced net sales of $143.1 million, a decrease of 15.5% from the year earlier period. Any improvement on the earnings front could help BGI stock rise further and, perhaps, remain above the $5 per share penny stock threshold.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"BGI":0.9,"LEN":0.9,"ORCL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":429,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":883587480,"gmtCreate":1631255617140,"gmtModify":1631888787026,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Time to buy?","listText":"Time to buy?","text":"Time to buy?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/883587480","repostId":"2166120346","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2166120346","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1631240205,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2166120346?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-10 10:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 Top Growth Stocks to Buy Right Now and Hold for the Long Term","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2166120346","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Apple and PayPal have delivered years of big gains for their shareholders, and their growth stories are far from over.","content":"<p>Some investors are growing concerned about the state of the economy, inflation, and the direction the stock market might go next.

Recall how as of late any sharp, violent drop in markets was bought so quickly (see chart below).<b>These bursts lower coincided with record VIX spikes, but a reflective snap-back bid would bring a market recovery of equal force as the VIX&nbsp; (i.e. implied volatility) reversed.</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae7a60d873792b825bdda669cafa0ed3\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"297\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">And one other curious observation from SpotGamma:</p><blockquote>When implied volatility is very high, its very sensitive to market moves and also signaling that markets are expecting more large moves ahead. As soon as markets would pause or catch a support level, that implied volatility would quickly reverse lower. <b>We often think of this analogy that if a shark stops swimming, it sinks ( partially true!). If the market stops dropping then Implied volatility sinks.</b></blockquote><p>With this, as we often talk about, lower implied volatility (ie lower VIX) signals market makers have to buy back short hedges which fuels rallies. SG's conclusion: this current level of lower implied volatility now gives the market more downside firepower.&nbsp; Starting with a lower implied volatility “slows down” that responsive “snap-back” buying mechanism.&nbsp; Additionally, gamma is higher when IV is lower so gamma flips may have more juice.</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>$544 Billion In Options Expire Today: Here's What Will Move</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;

Recall how as of late any sharp, violent drop in markets was bought so quickly (see chart below).These bursts lower coincided with record VIX spikes, but a reflective snap-back bid would bring a market recovery of equal force as the VIX  (i.e. implied volatility) reversed.And one other curious observation from SpotGamma:When implied volatility is very high, its very sensitive to market moves and also signaling that markets are expecting more large moves ahead. As soon as markets would pause or catch a support level, that implied volatility would quickly reverse lower. We often think of this analogy that if a shark stops swimming, it sinks ( partially true!). If the market stops dropping then Implied volatility sinks.With this, as we often talk about, lower implied volatility (ie lower VIX) signals market makers have to buy back short hedges which fuels rallies. SG's conclusion: this current level of lower implied volatility now gives the market more downside firepower.  Starting with a lower implied volatility “slows down” that responsive “snap-back” buying mechanism.  Additionally, gamma is higher when IV is lower so gamma flips may have more juice.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".DJI":0.9,".IXIC":0.9,".SPX":0.9,"SPY":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":259,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":184452201,"gmtCreate":1623722637603,"gmtModify":1634029562008,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go Singapore!","listText":"Go Singapore!","text":"Go Singapore!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/184452201","repostId":"2143473928","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":239,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":834317652,"gmtCreate":1629771797076,"gmtModify":1631891302658,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go go go!

big trouble.</p>\n<p>Following a pandemic-whipsawed 2020, the most prominent development of the current year has been retail investors asserting their presence on Wall Street.</p>\n<p>For nearly three months, retail investors on Reddit's WallStreetBets chat room have been banding together to buy shares and out-of-the-money call options in companies with high levels of short interest. The goal for these predominantly young and/or novice investors is to create a short squeeze -- i.e., an event where pessimists who want to see the share price of a stock decline are driven out of their positions by rapidly rising share prices.</p>\n<p>Retail investors have been successful in effecting a short squeeze in a handful of securities. Although video game and accessories retailer&nbsp;<b>GameStop</b>&nbsp;might be the most famous, it's movie theater chain<b>AMC Entertainment</b> (NYSE:AMC) that's sort of become the battleground stock between Reddit traders and Wall Street.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6f46e8f9014a7aff8e5399f6c5a3df3a\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p>Unfortunately, many of the reasons retail investors have chosen to buy into AMC are, for lack of a better word, awful. If your buy thesis pins on <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> or more of the following five ideas, you might end up kissing a significant portion of your investment goodbye.</p>\n<p><b>1. \"AMC's share price is too low\"</b></p>\n<p>One of the worst reasons to buy into AMC is that you think its $9.36 share price looks cheap relative to the $20 it went for as recently as September 2018. The issue with this buy thesis is that share price is meaningless without taking outstanding share count into consideration.</p>\n<p>For instance, AMC ended 2018 with 135.5 million shares outstanding and a share price of $12.28. Doing the math, this works out to a market cap of $1.66 billion. As of this past weekend, AMC had 450.2 million shares outstanding. Based on its $9.36 share price, its market cap is $4.2 billion.</p>\n<p>To put this into some context, AMC's share price is down 67% over the past five years, but its market cap has jumped by 54%. AMC's market cap over the past two months is higher than at any point since it became a publicly traded company in December 2013. The thesis that AMC is cheap based on its share price doesn't hold water.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c1e8d2b4cae058dc557e5200b3ff00d\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p><b>2. \"A short squeeze is imminent\"</b></p>\n<p>Arguably the most common buy thesis I hear for AMC among Reddit investors is that it's primed for a short squeeze. The unfortunate part is the dynamics that helped fuel a short squeeze in late January and early February no longer exist.</p>\n<p>For a short squeeze to occur, the right recipe is needed. First, there needs to be a high level of short interest relative to a company's float (i.e., its tradable shares). In AMC's case, 49.3 million shares were being held short in mid-March, compared to a float of 404 million shares. This represents short interest of 12%. That's definitely higher than the average publicly traded stock, but it's not off the charts. In fact, the percent of float held short for AMC has declined from close to 40% to just 12% over the last four months.</p>\n<p>Furthermore, the company's short ratio (also known as days to cover) has declined considerably. In October it would have taken short sellers over three days to exit their positions. Today, AMC's high daily trading volume would allow pessimists to cover in a matter of hours.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bee505c562dafe3e29f86496a282e43d\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"470\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p><b>3. \"99% of its theaters have reopened\"</b></p>\n<p>Retail investors are also gung-ho about AMC's reopening its theaters. As of March 26, the company forecast that 99% of its theaters would be open for business. While I freely admit that open theaters in any capacity is better than completely closed theaters, the buy thesis is missing a number of key points.</p>\n<p>To begin with, it's not as if AMC's theaters will be operating at full capacity anytime soon. With new variants of COVID-19 circulating in the U.S., we're in a race to vaccinate as many people as possible. If too few people are vaccinated, these variants can minimize the effectiveness of coronavirus vaccines and push the prospect of herd immunity much further down the line.</p>\n<p>In addition, AMC's film exclusivity has taken a pretty big hit during the pandemic.<b>AT&amp;T</b>'s WarnerMedia has chosen to release all of its news films in 2021 on HBO Max the same day they'll hit theaters.<b>Walt Disney</b>&nbsp;is making a similar move with a handful of films on its Disney+ streaming service. Moving forward, AMC could be looking at significantly reduced exclusivity, which will hamper its turnaround efforts.</p>\n<p>According to Wall Street, AMC isn't expected to hit its pre-pandemic level of annual sales until closer to 2024.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a7820c1f47b166de46066a8218fa6556\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p><b>4. \"I like to go to the movies\"</b></p>\n<p>Investing great Peter Lynch has always been a big fan of buying what you know. But Lynch also recognizes that there's a lot more to a great investment than simply liking or using a product. From what I've observed on social media, quite a few retail investors love going to the movies but are allergic to digging into AMC's income statements and balance sheet.</p>\n<p>From a balance-sheet perspective, AMC noted in its fourth-quarter operating results that it had more than $1 billion in cash on hand. This is after issuing close to 165 million shares and over $400 million in debt capital between mid-December and mid-January. But it ended 2020 with $5.7 billion in debt, and some of the debt it's issued since March 2020 has interest rates ranging from 10% to as high as a variable rate of 17%. Servicing this debt is going to be extremely challenging, and it's going to minimize what AMC can do with regard to growth initiatives.</p>\n<p>As for its income statement, AMC reported negative-$1.3 billion in free cash flow last year. This figure should improve with the company's theaters now open in some capacity. However, profitability remains a long way off. Over the next 24 months, AMC doesn't look to have enough cash to cover its losses.</p>\n<p>Investors are welcome to like a business -- but investing in it without knowing the fundamental details is a big mistake.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/20df0ce8cdd145fd726f632183b62ed6\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p><b>5. \"If we buy and hold, the hedgies lose\"</b></p>\n<p>Lastly, there's the idea that if retail investors buy up the float and hold on to AMC stock, they'll be sticking it to the \"hedgies\" -- a term assigned to Wall Street hedge funds and institutional investors. This, too, is a misguided buy thesis.</p>\n<p>Even though the percentage of AMC shares owned by institutional investors has been more than halved since October -- this is likely a function of the company's tripling its outstanding share count -- data from YCharts shows that institutions are still holding 32% of all shares. That's a significant chunk.</p>\n<p>What's more, the bulk of trading volume these days derives from high-frequency trading programs and not from retail investors or even hedge funds. There's never going to be an instance where retail investors own such a significant amount of the float that they'll be able to block downside moves in AMC stock.</p>\n<p>As is the case with every publicly traded company, operating results, not emotions, are what'll dictate AMC's long-term share-price performance. With the company facing clear cash concerns over the next two years, it'll likely be forced to, once again, dilute the daylights out of its shareholders to stay afloat.</p>\n<p>In sum, the Reddit buy theses for AMC make little to no sense.</p>","source":"fool_stock","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 5 Worst Reasons to Buy AMC Entertainment Stock</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: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\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 5 Worst Reasons to Buy AMC Entertainment Stock\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-05 20:31 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/04/05/the-5-worst-reasons-to-buy-amc-entertainment-stock/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>If your buy thesis is based on one or more of the following ideas, you're in big trouble.\nFollowing a pandemic-whipsawed 2020, the most prominent development of the current year has been retail ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/04/05/the-5-worst-reasons-to-buy-amc-entertainment-stock/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/04/05/the-5-worst-reasons-to-buy-amc-entertainment-stock/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2125763974","content_text":"If your buy thesis is based on one or more of the following ideas, you're in big trouble.\nFollowing a pandemic-whipsawed 2020, the most prominent development of the current year has been retail investors asserting their presence on Wall Street.\nFor nearly three months, retail investors on Reddit's WallStreetBets chat room have been banding together to buy shares and out-of-the-money call options in companies with high levels of short interest.

With the company facing clear cash concerns over the next two years, it'll likely be forced to, once again, dilute the daylights out of its shareholders to stay afloat.\nIn sum, the Reddit buy theses for AMC make little to no sense.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMC":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":236,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":340386218,"gmtCreate":1617339658034,"gmtModify":1634521320022,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like n comment&nbsp;","listText":"Like n comment&nbsp;","text":"Like n comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/340386218","repostId":"1119793308","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":312,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":863461104,"gmtCreate":1632412894108,"gmtModify":1632729682036,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go go go!","listText":"Go go go!","text":"Go go go!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/863461104","repostId":"1159478468","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1159478468","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1632411695,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1159478468?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-23 23:41","market":"us","language":"en","title":"EngageSmart opens for trading at $37, up about 43.6% from IPO price","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1159478468","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"(Sept 23) EngageSmart Inc. opens for trading at $37, up about 43.6% from IPO price.\n\nCompany\nBraintr","content":"<p>(Sept 23)&nbsp;<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ESMT\">EngageSmart Inc.</a> opens for trading at $37, up about 43.6% from IPO price.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/835bc9b4ff09e761852f27f75743b887\" tg-width=\"898\" tg-height=\"550\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><b>Company</b></p>\n<p>Braintree, Massachusetts-based EngageSmart was founded to develop a platform that improves customer engagement tailored for certain industry verticals.</p>\n<p>Management is headed by founder and CEO Robert P.

Historically low lending rates, an ongoing quantitative easing program designed to weigh down long-term bond yields, and a free-spending Congress have all helped to make cheap capital widely abundant for businesses. This is helping to fuel acquisitions, hiring, and (most importantly) innovation.</p>\n<p>Yet for some companies, their exponential growth is just beginning. For each of the following hypergrowth stocks, Wall Street's consensus sales estimate for 2023, courtesy of <b>FactSet</b>, implies a revenue increase ranging from a low of 1,185% (yes, <i>a low of 1,185%</i>) to a high of 12,629%, compared to 2020 sales.</p>\n<h2>Moderna: Implied sales increase of 1,185%</h2>\n<p>Arguably the best-known name on this list is biotech <b>Moderna</b> (NASDAQ:MRNA). According to Wall Street, Moderna's annual revenue is expected to catapult from the $803.4 million recorded in 2020 to an estimated $10.33 billion in 2023. Interestingly, the $10.33 billion in projected sales for 2023 is about half of the $20.13 billion forecast this year.</p>\n<p>As a lot of you probably know, Modena's success is tied to the development of its coronavirus vaccine mRNA-1273. When the company ran a large-scale study of its COVID-19 vaccine, the results (released in November) demonstrated a vaccine efficacy (VE) of 94% and a strong propensity to keep vaccinated individuals from getting severe forms of the disease. This initial VE made Moderna's COVID vaccine a slam dunk for Emergency Use Authorization in the United States.</p>\n<p>When the company announced its second-quarter operating results on Aug. 5, it stuck to its original forecast of delivering between 800 million and 1 billion doses in 2021, with net product sales of around $20 billion. Next year, Moderna believes it can provide between 2 billion and 3 billion doses. As a reminder, the Moderna vaccine is a two-dose regimen, meaning its 2022 output could fully inoculate 1 billion to 1.5 billion people.</p>\n<p>Also working in Modena's favor is the possibility of booster vaccinations. The mutability of COVID, coupled with a handful of studies suggesting that VE begins waning at the six-month mark, could create a recurring vaccination need globally.</p>\n<p>While Moderna might sound like a surefire growth story, there are still big question marks about its future. For example, even though mRNA-1273 has been wildly successful, it's the only therapy that's generating sales for the company. Moderna's non-COVID pipeline looks to be years away from bringing in meaningful revenue.</p>\n<p>Equally concerning is the likelihood that the COVID vaccine space is going to become crowded. At some point soon, <b>Novavax</b>&nbsp;should join the field with a formidable initial VE of about 90%. It is also working on a combination COVID/influenza vaccine, which would be a differentiator and game changer.</p>\n<p>Not to take anything away from what Moderna has done, but a $150 billion market cap for a company with a single therapy seems awfully risky.</p>\n<h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ZGNX\">Zogenix</a>: Implied sales increase of 2,451%</h2>\n<p>Another biotech stock that's expected to generate jaw-dropping sales growth through 2023 is small-cap <b>Zogenix</b> (NASDAQ:ZGNX). If Wall Street's consensus estimate proves accurate, the company's $13.64 million in reported sales in 2020 could grow to $348 million by 2023.</p>\n<p>Like Moderna, there's a single drug that looks to do all of the heavy lifting for Zogenix over the next couple of years: Fintepla. This is a drug targeted at a variety of seizure-related indications. It's already been approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat Dravet syndrome. And Zogenix has plans to file a supplemental new drug application by the end of the current quarter to expand Fintepla's label to include Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS). Both Dravet and LGS are rare forms of childhood-onset epilepsy. If approved, Zogenix could launch Fintepla for LGS patients in this country by as early as the first half of 2022.</p>\n<p>And Zogenix still isn't done with Fintepla. After hashing out the finer points with the FDA, the company intends to initiate a phase 3 study involving Fintepla as a treatment for CDKL5 deficiency disorder before the end of the year. Thus, organic growth and label expansion opportunities are expected to fuel sales of Fintepla to almost $350 million in three years.</p>\n<p>What'll be particularly interesting is how Zogenix fares against cannabinoid-focused drug developer GW Pharmaceuticals, which was acquired by <b>Jazz Pharmaceuticals</b> (NASDAQ:JAZZ) in May. GW's lead drug, Epidiolex, is a cannabidiol-based treatment that's been approved by the FDA to treat Dravet syndrome and LGS, and it launched in advance of Zogenix's Fintepla. For comparative purposes, Jazz announced that Epidiolex brought home $155.9 million in sales just in the second quarter, although it has an additional indication under its belt (tuberous sclerosis complex) where it won't compete against Zogenix.</p>\n<p>Although Epidiolex appears to have the upper hand now, it's worth noting that seizure-reduction efficacy for Fintepla looked very promising in late-stage clinical trials. To be 100% clear, the GW Pharma and Zogenix studies were never pitted head-to-head, and their baseline parameters are different. Nevertheless, Fintepla led to a 62.3% reduction in mean monthly convulsive seizure frequency compared to placebo at the six-week mark for Dravet syndrome patients.</p>\n<p>Comparatively, Jazz's Epidiolex demonstrated reductions in seizure frequency from baseline of 56% and 47%, respectively, for the lower- and higher-dose treatments in phase 3 studies in Dravet syndrome patients.&nbsp; Suffice it to say, these could be highly competitive indications for the foreseeable future.</p>\n<h2>Marathon Digital Holdings: Implied sales increase of 12,629%</h2>\n<p>Now, if you want pedal-to-the-metal growth, look no further than <b>Marathon Digital Holdings</b> (NASDAQ:MARA). After reporting a meager $4.36 million in sales in 2020, Wall Street anticipates full-year sales will climb to $555 million by 2023. That's an increase of 12,629%.</p>\n<p>If you're wondering how sales growth of this magnitude is possible for a company not involved in drug development, look no further than cryptocurrencies.</p>\n<p>Marathon Digital is a cryptocurrency mining company. It operates a farm of high-powered computing devices designed to solve complex mathematical equations that validate groups of transactions (known as a block) as valid on a digital currency's blockchain. For being the first to validate a block, Marathon is paid a block reward. This reward is typically a set amount of digital tokens from the digital currency being mined.</p>\n<p>In Marathon's case, it's mining <b>Bitcoin</b> (CRYPTO:BTC), the largest cryptocurrency in the world by market cap. Being the first to mine a Bitcoin block results in the company being awarded 6.25 Bitcoin tokens, which were worth a cool $292,000, as of Aug. 30.</p>\n<p>The reason Marathon's sales are skyrocketing so quickly is because it's in the midst of deploying <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the largest Bitcoin-mining operations in the United States.

Historically low lending rates, an ongoing quantitative easing program designed to weigh down long-term bond yields, and a free-spending Congress have all helped to make cheap capital widely abundant for businesses. This is helping to fuel acquisitions, hiring, and (most importantly) innovation.\nYet for some companies, their exponential growth is just beginning. For each of the following hypergrowth stocks, Wall Street's consensus sales estimate for 2023, courtesy of FactSet, implies a revenue increase ranging from a low of 1,185% (yes, a low of 1,185%) to a high of 12,629%, compared to 2020 sales.\nModerna: Implied sales increase of 1,185%\nArguably the best-known name on this list is biotech Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA). According to Wall Street, Moderna's annual revenue is expected to catapult from the $803.4 million recorded in 2020 to an estimated $10.33 billion in 2023. Interestingly, the $10.33 billion in projected sales for 2023 is about half of the $20.13 billion forecast this year.\nAs a lot of you probably know, Modena's success is tied to the development of its coronavirus vaccine mRNA-1273. When the company ran a large-scale study of its COVID-19 vaccine, the results (released in November) demonstrated a vaccine efficacy (VE) of 94% and a strong propensity to keep vaccinated individuals from getting severe forms of the disease. This initial VE made Moderna's COVID vaccine a slam dunk for Emergency Use Authorization in the United States.\nWhen the company announced its second-quarter operating results on Aug. 5, it stuck to its original forecast of delivering between 800 million and 1 billion doses in 2021, with net product sales of around $20 billion. Next year, Moderna believes it can provide between 2 billion and 3 billion doses. As a reminder, the Moderna vaccine is a two-dose regimen, meaning its 2022 output could fully inoculate 1 billion to 1.5 billion people.\nAlso working in Modena's favor is the possibility of booster vaccinations. The mutability of COVID, coupled with a handful of studies suggesting that VE begins waning at the six-month mark, could create a recurring vaccination need globally.\nWhile Moderna might sound like a surefire growth story, there are still big question marks about its future. For example, even though mRNA-1273 has been wildly successful, it's the only therapy that's generating sales for the company. Moderna's non-COVID pipeline looks to be years away from bringing in meaningful revenue.\nEqually concerning is the likelihood that the COVID vaccine space is going to become crowded. At some point soon, Novavax should join the field with a formidable initial VE of about 90%. It is also working on a combination COVID/influenza vaccine, which would be a differentiator and game changer.\nNot to take anything away from what Moderna has done, but a $150 billion market cap for a company with a single therapy seems awfully risky.\nZogenix: Implied sales increase of 2,451%\nAnother biotech stock that's expected to generate jaw-dropping sales growth through 2023 is small-cap Zogenix (NASDAQ:ZGNX). If Wall Street's consensus estimate proves accurate, the company's $13.64 million in reported sales in 2020 could grow to $348 million by 2023.\nLike Moderna, there's a single drug that looks to do all of the heavy lifting for Zogenix over the next couple of years: Fintepla. This is a drug targeted at a variety of seizure-related indications. It's already been approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat Dravet syndrome. And Zogenix has plans to file a supplemental new drug application by the end of the current quarter to expand Fintepla's label to include Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS). Both Dravet and LGS are rare forms of childhood-onset epilepsy. If approved, Zogenix could launch Fintepla for LGS patients in this country by as early as the first half of 2022.\nAnd Zogenix still isn't done with Fintepla. After hashing out the finer points with the FDA, the company intends to initiate a phase 3 study involving Fintepla as a treatment for CDKL5 deficiency disorder before the end of the year. Thus, organic growth and label expansion opportunities are expected to fuel sales of Fintepla to almost $350 million in three years.\nWhat'll be particularly interesting is how Zogenix fares against cannabinoid-focused drug developer GW Pharmaceuticals, which was acquired by Jazz Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:JAZZ) in May. GW's lead drug, Epidiolex, is a cannabidiol-based treatment that's been approved by the FDA to treat Dravet syndrome and LGS, and it launched in advance of Zogenix's Fintepla. For comparative purposes, Jazz announced that Epidiolex brought home $155.9 million in sales just in the second quarter, although it has an additional indication under its belt (tuberous sclerosis complex) where it won't compete against Zogenix.\nAlthough Epidiolex appears to have the upper hand now, it's worth noting that seizure-reduction efficacy for Fintepla looked very promising in late-stage clinical trials. To be 100% clear, the GW Pharma and Zogenix studies were never pitted head-to-head, and their baseline parameters are different. Nevertheless, Fintepla led to a 62.3% reduction in mean monthly convulsive seizure frequency compared to placebo at the six-week mark for Dravet syndrome patients.\nComparatively, Jazz's Epidiolex demonstrated reductions in seizure frequency from baseline of 56% and 47%, respectively, for the lower- and higher-dose treatments in phase 3 studies in Dravet syndrome patients.  Suffice it to say, these could be highly competitive indications for the foreseeable future.\nMarathon Digital Holdings: Implied sales increase of 12,629%\nNow, if you want pedal-to-the-metal growth, look no further than Marathon Digital Holdings (NASDAQ:MARA). After reporting a meager $4.36 million in sales in 2020, Wall Street anticipates full-year sales will climb to $555 million by 2023. That's an increase of 12,629%.\nIf you're wondering how sales growth of this magnitude is possible for a company not involved in drug development, look no further than cryptocurrencies.\nMarathon Digital is a cryptocurrency mining company. It operates a farm of high-powered computing devices designed to solve complex mathematical equations that validate groups of transactions (known as a block) as valid on a digital currency's blockchain. For being the first to validate a block, Marathon is paid a block reward. This reward is typically a set amount of digital tokens from the digital currency being mined.\nIn Marathon's case, it's mining Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC), the largest cryptocurrency in the world by market cap. Being the first to mine a Bitcoin block results in the company being awarded 6.25 Bitcoin tokens, which were worth a cool $292,000, as of Aug. 30.\nThe reason Marathon's sales are skyrocketing so quickly is because it's in the midst of deploying one of the largest Bitcoin-mining operations in the United States. As of the beginning of August, approximately 30,100 miners were operating, with another 103,000 ordered and yet to be installed. By the end of the first quarter of 2022, Marathon should have north of 100,000 miners in operation, with all 133,120 up and running by July 2022.\nThough Marathon is the fastest-growing of these three hypergrowth stocks, it's also arguably the most dangerous investment of this trio. That's because it's entirely dependent on external factors, such as interest in, and the price of, Bitcoin -- and not innovation.\nWhat's more, the barrier to entry in the cryptocurrency mining space is virtually nonexistent. As time passes, it's going to be tougher for Marathon to successfully mine Bitcoin.\nAs the icing on the cake, Bitcoin's block rewards halve every four years. By 2024, only 3.125 Bitcoin tokens will be paid for validating a block. Essentially, Marathon is competing against a growing number of mining companies for a reward that's shrinking. It simply doesn't sound like an operating model with long-term staying power.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"MARA":0.9,"MRNA":0.9,"ZGNX":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":335,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":811465365,"gmtCreate":1630337308757,"gmtModify":1704958781990,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Signal of price increase!","listText":"Signal of price increase!","text":"Signal of price increase!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/811465365","repostId":"1182034389","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":419,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":174796988,"gmtCreate":1627136343444,"gmtModify":1631892989134,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy?","listText":"Buy?","text":"Buy?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/174796988","repostId":"1191636755","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1191636755","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1627084309,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1191636755?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-24 07:51","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla Earnings Are Coming.

Musk tweeted this week Tesla would open its charging network to other EVs down the road.\nAll those topics and more should come up on the earningsconference callscheduled for 5:30 p.m. ET on Monday. Year to date, Tesla stock is down roughly 9%, trailing behind comparable 17% and 15% respective gains of theS&P 500andDow Jones Industrial Average.Still, Tesla shares have had a strong run, up about 112% over the past 12 months.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"TSLA":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":198,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":109989373,"gmtCreate":1619658978592,"gmtModify":1634210955720,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Excellent","listText":"Excellent","text":"Excellent","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/109989373","repostId":"1137964402","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1137964402","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1619651546,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1137964402?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-29 07:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple reports another blowout quarter with sales up 54%, authorizes $90 billion in share buybacks","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1137964402","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Apple reported a blowout quarter on Wednesday, announcing companywide sales up 54% higher than last year, and significantly stronger profits than Wall Street expected.Apple did not issue official guidance for what it expects in the quarter ending in June.Apple authorized $90 billion in share buybacks.Apple stock rose over 4% at one point in extended trading.Apple reported double-digit growth in every single one of its product categories, and its most important product line, the iPhone, was up 65","content":"<p><b>KEY POINTS</b></p><ul><li>Apple reported a blowout quarter on Wednesday, announcing companywide sales up 54% higher than last year, and&nbsp;significantly stronger profits than Wall Street expected.</li><li>Apple did not issue official guidance for what it expects in the quarter ending in June.</li><li>Apple authorized $90 billion in share buybacks.</li></ul><p>Apple&nbsp;reported&nbsp;a blowout quarter&nbsp;on Wednesday, announcing companywide sales up 54% higher than last year, and&nbsp;significantly stronger profits than Wall Street expected.</p><p>Apple stock rose over 4% at one point in extended trading.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e791f63f460807906f1793c2d58933e\" tg-width=\"1302\" tg-height=\"833\"></p><p>Apple reported double-digit growth in every single one of its product categories, and its&nbsp;most important product line, the iPhone, was up 65.5% from last year.

The investment bank is barring employees from using their ID cards to enter the office building if they haven't submitted proof of their vaccination status, a spokesperson for the company told CNN Business.</p>\n<p>Goldman's plan</p>\n<p>Goldman Sachs employees are currently required to report their vaccine status to the company, a policy that was instituted on June 10. Failure to do so comes with specific consequences.</p>\n<p>\"If you do not report your vaccine status to Goldman, your ID card will not work to enter the building,\" a spokesperson for the company told CNN Business. \"The entrance of the building is contingent on you reporting your vaccine status,\" the spokesperson added.</p>\n<p>Unvaccinated employees are required to get a rapid Covid-19 test on site at the Goldman Sachs office and will be tested regularly, the spokesperson said. Employees who test positive will immediately be asked to leave the building.</p>\n<p>How other banks are handling the return to work</p>\n<p>Morgan Stanley (MS)'s New York office is banning all unvaccinated staff and clients from entering its headquarters. All employees who work in buildings with a \"large employee presence\" were required to confirm their vaccination status by July 1, according to a memo to employees.</p>\n<p>At Deutsche Bank (DB), there are no restrictions on employees who are vaccinated and have shared their vaccine status with the company, a spokesperson for the bank told CNN Business. Unvaccinated employees and employees who don't share their vaccination status, however, are required to answer a set of questions about any symptoms and travel, and must wear masks and get tested several times per week at the office.</p>\n<p>Citibank employees who are vaccinated can submit their vaccine cards, and employees who are not vaccinated are required to test three times per week with an at-home rapid test. After taking the test, the employees upload their results to the test's app for their employer to see.</p>\n<p>Bank of America (BAC) was more vague when asked for specifics on how their vaccine policy will be implemented. \"We are pulling folks back who have shared their vaccination status,\" a spokesperson for the company told CNN Business. \"We are prioritizing the vaccinated coming back,\" the spokesperson added.</p>\n<p>Wells Fargo (CBEAX) is \"collecting vaccination status from our employees to better enable our focus on health and safety in the workplace,\" a spokesperson for the company told CNN Business.</p>\n<p>Jefferies (JEF) is only allowing vaccinated employees into the office according to a memo that the company's CEO and president sent to employees, and only after they're past the appropriate waiting period for full vaccine efficacy. \"We require that, after Labor Day, anyone who is not fully vaccinated should continue to work from home,\" the memo said.</p>\n<p>Barclays declined to comment on its vaccine policy.</p>\n<p>JP Morgan Chase, UBS, HSBC did not respond to CNN's request for comment.</p>\n<p>Wall Street's push for the office</p>\n<p>For months, Wall Street has pushed for employees to come back to the office as more Americans get vaccinated against Covid-19.</p>\n<p>Morgan Stanley CEO James Gorman and Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan, for example, both made it clear that they're expecting their employees to return by Labor Day — a date that is quickly approaching yet might become a moving target as the Delta variant continues to spread.</p>\n<p>Gorman previously warned that he'll be \"very disappointed\" if workers aren't back by Labor Day.

The investment bank is barring employees from using their ID cards to enter the office building if they haven't submitted proof of their vaccination status, a spokesperson for the company told CNN Business.\nGoldman's plan\nGoldman Sachs employees are currently required to report their vaccine status to the company, a policy that was instituted on June 10. Failure to do so comes with specific consequences.\n\"If you do not report your vaccine status to Goldman, your ID card will not work to enter the building,\" a spokesperson for the company told CNN Business. \"The entrance of the building is contingent on you reporting your vaccine status,\" the spokesperson added.\nUnvaccinated employees are required to get a rapid Covid-19 test on site at the Goldman Sachs office and will be tested regularly, the spokesperson said. Employees who test positive will immediately be asked to leave the building.\nHow other banks are handling the return to work\nMorgan Stanley (MS)'s New York office is banning all unvaccinated staff and clients from entering its headquarters. All employees who work in buildings with a \"large employee presence\" were required to confirm their vaccination status by July 1, according to a memo to employees.\nAt Deutsche Bank (DB), there are no restrictions on employees who are vaccinated and have shared their vaccine status with the company, a spokesperson for the bank told CNN Business. Unvaccinated employees and employees who don't share their vaccination status, however, are required to answer a set of questions about any symptoms and travel, and must wear masks and get tested several times per week at the office.\nCitibank employees who are vaccinated can submit their vaccine cards, and employees who are not vaccinated are required to test three times per week with an at-home rapid test. After taking the test, the employees upload their results to the test's app for their employer to see.\nBank of America (BAC) was more vague when asked for specifics on how their vaccine policy will be implemented. \"We are pulling folks back who have shared their vaccination status,\" a spokesperson for the company told CNN Business. \"We are prioritizing the vaccinated coming back,\" the spokesperson added.\nWells Fargo (CBEAX) is \"collecting vaccination status from our employees to better enable our focus on health and safety in the workplace,\" a spokesperson for the company told CNN Business.\nJefferies (JEF) is only allowing vaccinated employees into the office according to a memo that the company's CEO and president sent to employees, and only after they're past the appropriate waiting period for full vaccine efficacy. \"We require that, after Labor Day, anyone who is not fully vaccinated should continue to work from home,\" the memo said.\nBarclays declined to comment on its vaccine policy.\nJP Morgan Chase, UBS, HSBC did not respond to CNN's request for comment.\nWall Street's push for the office\nFor months, Wall Street has pushed for employees to come back to the office as more Americans get vaccinated against Covid-19.\nMorgan Stanley CEO James Gorman and Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan, for example, both made it clear that they're expecting their employees to return by Labor Day — a date that is quickly approaching yet might become a moving target as the Delta variant continues to spread.\nGorman previously warned that he'll be \"very disappointed\" if workers aren't back by Labor Day. And for those who are not, \"we'll have a different kind of conversation,\" he said. As for Moynihan, he recently said, \"Our view is all the vaccinated teammates will be back\" after Labor Day.\nThe rush to get back to the office is due, in part, to work cultural concerns, as Zoom calls and Slack messages are no substitute for in-person meetings and training. Others worries center on cybersecurity and risk management vulnerabilities inherent in businesses that conduct billions of dollars of transactions every day.\nAt its core, banking is a highly interactive business — and no one on hyper-competitive Wall Street wants to lose a deal because of a slow WiFi connection.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"GS":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":292,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":110135143,"gmtCreate":1622429466982,"gmtModify":1634101541196,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Oh time to sell!","listText":"Oh time to sell!","text":"Oh time to sell!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/110135143","repostId":"2139438981","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":227,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":101765215,"gmtCreate":1619945234437,"gmtModify":1634208930647,"author":{"id":"3575238340277690","authorId":"3575238340277690","name":"Unicorn82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdb8d97fb98bd68d1bf5ab48f6170acb","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575238340277690","authorIdStr":"3575238340277690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good Luck To All who holds the stock!","listText":"Good Luck To All who holds the stock!","text":"Good Luck To All who holds the stock!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/101765215","repostId":"1103106179","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":419,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
