In my opinion, a gradual increase in the operating margin to 8% in the terminal year is a very realistic scenario.</p><p>Here is the calculation of the Weighted Average Cost of Capital:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/759163398701e54efd7cfabd11a0867d\" tg-width=\"480\" tg-height=\"374\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><i>Source: Author</i></p><p>Some explanations:</p><ul><li>In order to calculate the market rate of return, I used values of equityriskpremium (4.72%) and the current yield of UST10 as a risk-free rate (1.6%).</li><li>I used the currentvalueof the three-year beta coefficient (0.92). For the terminal year, I used Beta equal to 1.</li><li>To calculate the Cost of Debt, I used the interest expense for 2019 and 2020 divided by the debt value for the same years.</li></ul><p>Here is the model itself:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0df02bca01b3ef74d3b640d95eb00590\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"528\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">(In high resolution)</p><p><i>Source: Author</i></p><p><i>The DCF-based target price of Amazon's shares is $4,280, offering 29% upside.</i></p><p>Final thoughts</p><ol><li>Amazon is one of the companies whose growth has not yet reached its limit and not even entered the plateau phase. In a sense, this is a startup with $73 billion cash.</li><li>The fact that Amazon remains in the acceleration phase does not mean that its capitalization is constantly undervalued.

For the terminal year, I used Beta equal to 1.To calculate the Cost of Debt, I used the interest expense for 2019 and 2020 divided by the debt value for the same years.Here is the model itself:(In high resolution)Source: AuthorThe DCF-based target price of Amazon's shares is $4,280, offering 29% upside.Final thoughtsAmazon is one of the companies whose growth has not yet reached its limit and not even entered the plateau phase. In a sense, this is a startup with $73 billion cash.The fact that Amazon remains in the acceleration phase does not mean that its capitalization is constantly undervalued. But in this case, based on the patterns between the company's capitalization and the parameters of its revenue, we can conclude that the company isundervalued.Comparing Amazon to other companies through the prism of expected EPS growth, it must be admitted that the company ismuch cheaperthan the market.DCF model based on average expectations analysts indicate a 30% undervaluation. At the start of the year, a similarmodelindicated a 20% undervaluation.When you look at Amazon's revenue forecast for the next decade, you realize that the company will face growth problems. But in my opinion,it is better to invest in a company facing growth problems than aging problems.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":528,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":105352916,"gmtCreate":1620272829535,"gmtModify":1634206463899,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/105352916","repostId":"2133652936","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1093,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":102169156,"gmtCreate":1620185239275,"gmtModify":1634207136457,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"please like and comment!","listText":"please like and comment!","text":"please like and comment!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/102169156","repostId":"1115203133","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1115203133","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1620178775,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1115203133?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-05 09:39","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why is dogecoin’s price spiking?

Disney is said to have come out ahead after CEO Bob Chapek and team faced the severest of financial stress tests. \"When parks and theaters emptied out a year ago, costs kept rolling in, and the fastest-growing part of the business, streaming, was consuming cash—as it still is. Yet, Disney generated $3.6 billion in free cash during its fiscal year ended last September. It’s seen producing $3.3 billion this year before the numbers begin a sharp rebound,\" notes Jack Hough. While the movie business is still sputtering to restart and the TV business is seen holding steady at best, streaming results have shattered forecasts.

Disney is said to have come out ahead after CEO Bob Chapek and team faced the severest of financial stress tests. \"When parks and theaters emptied out a year ago, costs kept rolling in, and the fastest-growing part of the business, streaming, was consuming cash—as it still is. Yet, Disney generated $3.6 billion in free cash during its fiscal year ended last September. It’s seen producing $3.3 billion this year before the numbers begin a sharp rebound,\" notes Jack Hough. While the movie business is still sputtering to restart and the TV business is seen holding steady at best, streaming results have shattered forecasts. Disney+ smashed expectations in piling up 100M in less than 18 months, compared to the 10 years it took Netflix to hit that level. Disney is targeting 300M to 350M subscribers by 2024 across all of its streaming platforms, including Hulu, ESPN+, Hotstar in India, and Star+ in Latin America (launches in June).

The Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 55.20 points, or 0.2%, to 33,745.40, also falling from a record high. Intel was the biggest decliner in the blue-chip Dow, dropping more than 4%. The Nasdaq Composite fell 0.4% to 13,850.00.Wall Street has been relatively quiet with the S&P 500 moving within 1% for five sessions in a row. Market volatility has declined to pre-pandemic levels amid rising reopening optimism. The Cboe Volatility Index, AKA the VIX or the market’s fear gauge, has traded below 18 for the past four days, a level unseen since February 2020.Shares of Nuance Communications jumped nearly 16% after Microsoft announced it will buy the speech recognition company in a $16 billion deal.The Nuance acquisition represents Microsoft’s largest acquisition since it bought LinkedIn for more than $26 billion in 2016.Nvidia jumped 5.6% after the chip giant said it first quarter revenue for fiscal 2022 is tracking above its previously provided outlook and that it expects demand to continue to exceed supply for much of this year.Nvidia plans new chip to compete with intel in data-center market.The weakness in reopening plays weighed on the overall market with shares of Carnival and Norwegian Cruise Line off more than 4% each. United Airlines fell 3.9% after the carrier said its first-quarter revenue is expected to fall 66% compared with the same period in 2019. The new guidance fell near the top of the range between 65% and 70% that the company had previously forecast.“Amid new highs it’s not surprising for the market to be moving somewhat in a holding pattern of late,” said Chris Larkin,managing director of trading and investing product at E-Trade. “All eyes will likely be on the CPI read tomorrow for a benchmark on where we stand on the inflation front. And of course we’re ushering in earnings season which could be a catalyst for market moves over the next few weeks.”The first-quarter earnings reporting season begins this week, with expectations set for broadly positive news and an uptrend for U.S. equities thanks to a recovering economy. Many of the nation’s largest banks, including Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase will this week report results for the three months ended March 31.This week is also packed with Federal Reserve speeches and key economic data including a hotly anticipated inflation readingTuesday, when the U.S. consumer price index is released. Economists polled by Dow Jones anticipate a 0.5% gain in CPI month over month and a 2.5% increase from last year’s level.Tesla gained 3.7% to above $700 Monday after Canaccord Genuity upgraded the stock to buy and raised its price target to $1,071, citing its battery innovations.Fed Chairman Jerome Powell on Sunday reiterated that the Fed wants to see inflation rise above its 2% for an extended period before officials move to raise interest rates.“We want to see inflation move up to 2% — and we mean that on a sustainable basis, we don’t mean just tap the base once,” Powell said in an interview that aired Sunday evening on CBS News’ “60 Minutes.” “But then we’d also like to see it on track to move moderately above 2% for some time.”He added that amid an accelerated Covid-19 vaccine rollout and strong fiscal support, the U.S. economy appears to be at a turning point.Powell will also speak Wednesday at an Economic Club of Washington event.Investors will also keep an eye on President Joe Biden’s effort to advance a major infrastructure proposal known as the American Jobs Plan. Biden, who with other Democrats promised significant an infrastructure overhaul in the 2020 elections, wil lmeet with a bipartisan group of lawmakers on Monday to try to persuade Capitol Hill to back the $2 trillion package.Congress will return to Washington this week and be in session for the first time since Biden debuted his proposal, which earmarks hundreds of billions of dollars for roads, bridges, airports, broadband, electric vehicles, housing and job training.The president’s plan would also increase the corporate tax rate to 28% and crack down on other overseas tax avoidance strategies.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":314,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":371165261,"gmtCreate":1618921667753,"gmtModify":1634289902857,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":10,"commentSize":9,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/371165261","repostId":"1185485095","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":566,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":109126829,"gmtCreate":1619675208761,"gmtModify":1634210799812,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/109126829","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://www.laohu8.com/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.

Most quarters, it tends to be in the 38% to 39% range, but in the quarter ending in March, Apple reported 42.5% margins.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":678,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":359846924,"gmtCreate":1616386649168,"gmtModify":1634526122320,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/359846924","repostId":"2120415143","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":282,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":375612367,"gmtCreate":1619331796459,"gmtModify":1634274161361,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/375612367","repostId":"1184404050","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":413,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":371427512,"gmtCreate":1618967152736,"gmtModify":1634289558613,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/371427512","repostId":"1193736432","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":260,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":345943626,"gmtCreate":1618274999365,"gmtModify":1634294031229,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/345943626","repostId":"1146450605","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1146450605","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1618271053,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1146450605?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-13 07:44","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500 closes flat near record high in another muted session ahead of key inflation data","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1146450605","media":"CNBC","summary":"U.S. stocks hovered near their record levels on Monday as dull trading resumed before the release of","content":"<div>\n<p>U.S. stocks hovered near their record levels on Monday as dull trading resumed before the release of widely-watched inflation data and the start of first-quarter corporate earnings.The S&P 500 dipped ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/11/stock-market-futures-open-to-close-news.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 55.20 points, or 0.2%, to 33,745.40, also falling from a record high. Intel was the biggest decliner in the blue-chip Dow, dropping more than 4%. The Nasdaq Composite fell 0.4% to 13,850.00.Wall Street has been relatively quiet with the S&P 500 moving within 1% for five sessions in a row. Market volatility has declined to pre-pandemic levels amid rising reopening optimism. The Cboe Volatility Index, AKA the VIX or the market’s fear gauge, has traded below 18 for the past four days, a level unseen since February 2020.Shares of Nuance Communications jumped nearly 16% after Microsoft announced it will buy the speech recognition company in a $16 billion deal.The Nuance acquisition represents Microsoft’s largest acquisition since it bought LinkedIn for more than $26 billion in 2016.Nvidia jumped 5.6% after the chip giant said it first quarter revenue for fiscal 2022 is tracking above its previously provided outlook and that it expects demand to continue to exceed supply for much of this year.Nvidia plans new chip to compete with intel in data-center market.The weakness in reopening plays weighed on the overall market with shares of Carnival and Norwegian Cruise Line off more than 4% each. United Airlines fell 3.9% after the carrier said its first-quarter revenue is expected to fall 66% compared with the same period in 2019. The new guidance fell near the top of the range between 65% and 70% that the company had previously forecast.“Amid new highs it’s not surprising for the market to be moving somewhat in a holding pattern of late,” said Chris Larkin,managing director of trading and investing product at E-Trade. “All eyes will likely be on the CPI read tomorrow for a benchmark on where we stand on the inflation front. And of course we’re ushering in earnings season which could be a catalyst for market moves over the next few weeks.”The first-quarter earnings reporting season begins this week, with expectations set for broadly positive news and an uptrend for U.S. equities thanks to a recovering economy. Many of the nation’s largest banks, including Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase will this week report results for the three months ended March 31.This week is also packed with Federal Reserve speeches and key economic data including a hotly anticipated inflation readingTuesday, when the U.S. consumer price index is released. Economists polled by Dow Jones anticipate a 0.5% gain in CPI month over month and a 2.5% increase from last year’s level.Tesla gained 3.7% to above $700 Monday after Canaccord Genuity upgraded the stock to buy and raised its price target to $1,071, citing its battery innovations.Fed Chairman Jerome Powell on Sunday reiterated that the Fed wants to see inflation rise above its 2% for an extended period before officials move to raise interest rates.“We want to see inflation move up to 2% — and we mean that on a sustainable basis, we don’t mean just tap the base once,” Powell said in an interview that aired Sunday evening on CBS News’ “60 Minutes.” “But then we’d also like to see it on track to move moderately above 2% for some time.”He added that amid an accelerated Covid-19 vaccine rollout and strong fiscal support, the U.S. economy appears to be at a turning point.Powell will also speak Wednesday at an Economic Club of Washington event.Investors will also keep an eye on President Joe Biden’s effort to advance a major infrastructure proposal known as the American Jobs Plan. Biden, who with other Democrats promised significant an infrastructure overhaul in the 2020 elections, wil lmeet with a bipartisan group of lawmakers on Monday to try to persuade Capitol Hill to back the $2 trillion package.Congress will return to Washington this week and be in session for the first time since Biden debuted his proposal, which earmarks hundreds of billions of dollars for roads, bridges, airports, broadband, electric vehicles, housing and job training.The president’s plan would also increase the corporate tax rate to 28% and crack down on other overseas tax avoidance strategies.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":314,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":346109794,"gmtCreate":1618010433118,"gmtModify":1634295295319,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/346109794","repostId":"1168300924","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1168300924","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1617955250,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1168300924?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-09 16:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Next Week’s IPO Lineup Is Growing.

Tesla (ticker: TSLA) didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment about the fire or the damage it may have caused.</p><p>President Joe Biden is probably responsible for the share-price decline, which left the stock about 2.7% lower in premarket trading, at about $680. It has beena wild weekfor Tesla stockholders. Shares started off the week at about $675,traded above $700and fell to about $560 before bounding back, up 4.7% Thursday, to just under $700.</p><p>Nothing Tesla has done appears to be the reason for the recent volatility. It’s all about interest rates.</p><p>That is where the president comes into the picture. Thursday evening, he addressed the nation, focusing on putting Covid-19 in the rearview mirror a year after the World Health Organization declared that a pandemic had begun.</p><p>“All adult Americans will be eligible to get a vaccine no later than May 1,” said the president, adding the federal government is setting up hundreds of vaccination sites and procuring millions more vaccine doses.</p><p>It’s good news, but the market is selling off Friday morning. For stocks, the speech represents almost too much of a good thing. The economy is reopening and, as a result,bond yields are rising, putting pressure on high-growth stocks.</p><p>Futures on the&nbsp;Nasdaq Composite&nbsp;Index, home to many highflying tech stocks, are down 1.6%.Dow Jones Industrial Averagefutures, on the other hand, are flat.</p><p>Higher yields hurt richly valued, fast-growing companies more than others for a couple of reasons. One, they makes funding growth more expensive. Two, high- growth companies are expected generate most of their cash far in the future. That cash is a little less valuable in present terms when rates are high, compared with when rates are low.

Tesla (ticker: TSLA) didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment about the fire or the damage it may have caused.President Joe Biden is probably responsible for the share-price decline, which left the stock about 2.7% lower in premarket trading, at about $680. It has beena wild weekfor Tesla stockholders. Shares started off the week at about $675,traded above $700and fell to about $560 before bounding back, up 4.7% Thursday, to just under $700.Nothing Tesla has done appears to be the reason for the recent volatility. It’s all about interest rates.That is where the president comes into the picture. Thursday evening, he addressed the nation, focusing on putting Covid-19 in the rearview mirror a year after the World Health Organization declared that a pandemic had begun.“All adult Americans will be eligible to get a vaccine no later than May 1,” said the president, adding the federal government is setting up hundreds of vaccination sites and procuring millions more vaccine doses.It’s good news, but the market is selling off Friday morning. For stocks, the speech represents almost too much of a good thing. The economy is reopening and, as a result,bond yields are rising, putting pressure on high-growth stocks.Futures on the Nasdaq Composite Index, home to many highflying tech stocks, are down 1.6%.Dow Jones Industrial Averagefutures, on the other hand, are flat.Higher yields hurt richly valued, fast-growing companies more than others for a couple of reasons. One, they makes funding growth more expensive. Two, high- growth companies are expected generate most of their cash far in the future. That cash is a little less valuable in present terms when rates are high, compared with when rates are low. In a higher-rate environment, investors have more options to earn interest today, which puts pressure on high-growth stocks’ valuations.A Friday dip, however,doesn’t mean the end of the bull market in Tesla, EV stocks or the Nasdaq. Getting the economy back on its feet is a good thing. Investors just need a chance to adjust to the changing landscape.“There’s a good chance you, your families and friends will be able to get together in your backyard or in your neighborhood and have a cookout …and celebrate Independence Day,” Biden said. That is great news.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":156,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":108897350,"gmtCreate":1620008944570,"gmtModify":1634208561233,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/108897350","repostId":"1144421419","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":751,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":377328466,"gmtCreate":1619498603755,"gmtModify":1634212253102,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/377328466","repostId":"1190086074","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1190086074","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":1619480390,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1190086074?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-27 07:39","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla posts record net income of $438 million, revenue surges by 74%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1190086074","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Tesla reported record net income of $438 million during the quarter, as well as earnings of 93 cents per share on $10.39 billion in revenue.In its earnings release, the company said it has weathered chip shortages that have plagued the auto industry in part by “pivoting extremely quickly to new microcontrollers, while simultaneously developing firmware for new chips made by new suppliers.”On an earnings call, CEO Elon Musk said the delayed new version of the company’s Model S sedan will be deliv","content":"<p><b>KEY POINTS</b></p><ul><li>Tesla reported record net income of $438 million during the quarter, as well as earnings of 93 cents per share on $10.39 billion in revenue.</li><li>In its earnings release, the company said it has weathered chip shortages that have plagued the auto industry in part by “pivoting extremely quickly to new microcontrollers, while simultaneously developing firmware for new chips made by new suppliers.”</li><li>On an earnings call, CEO Elon Musk said the delayed new version of the company’s Model S sedan will be delivered starting in May 2021, and Model X deliveries will begin in the third quarter of the year.</li></ul><p>Tesla&nbsp;reported first-quarter results after the bell on Monday.

It also recorded a $101 million positive impact from sales of bitcoin during the quarter.CEO Elon Musk’s electric vehicle business reported in the first quarter vehicle deliveries of 184,800 Model 3 and Model Y cars, beating expectations and setting a record for Tesla. However, the company also said it produced none of its higher-end Model S sedans or Model X SUVs for the period ending March. It delivered2,020 older Model S sedans and Model X SUVs from inventory.On Monday’s earnings call, Musk said the new version of the company’s Model S sedans will finally be delivered to customers starting in May 2021, with Model X deliveries to begin in the third quarter of the year. Musk and CFO Zachary Kirkhorn both said supply chain issues are likely to remain a challenge for Tesla this year.In January 2021 (during a fourth-quarter 2020 earnings update) Musk had said that the Model S Plaid was already in production would be delivered starting in February 2021. But he admitted on Monday, “There were more challenges than expected,” in producing the refreshed version of these vehicles. He did not elaborate.Tesla is now aiming to produce 2,000 Model S and X vehicles per week later this year.The company said Monday it expects more than 50% vehicle delivery growth in 2021 overall, which implies minimum deliveries around 750,000 vehicles this year.The fact Tesla grew vehicle unit sales by more than 100% year over year but grew service centers by only 28% and its mobile service fleet by only 22% explains why some Tesla customers face frustratingly long wait times for repairs. Service expansion is not keeping pace with the volume of vehicles sold.Tesla said it has weathered chip shortages that have plagued the auto industry in part by “pivoting extremely quickly to new microcontrollers, while simultaneously developing firmware for new chips made by new suppliers.” It did not disclose the names of its new suppliers.It also reiterated Musk’s frequent claim that cameras, not radar, are a better path toward autonomous vehicles. “Our AI-based software architecture has been increasingly reliant on cameras, to the point where radar is becoming unnecessary earlier than expected. As a result, our FSD [Full Self-Driving] team is fully focused on evolving to a vision-based autonomous system and we are nearly ready to switch the US market to Tesla Vision,” the company said in its earnings release.Revenue for its energy generation and storage business nearly doubled for Tesla versus the same period in 2020, when Musk said Covid, then an emerging pandemic, had slowed its energy business to a crawl. But energy revenue declined from $787 million in the fourth quarter to $595 million in the first quarter of 2021.Recently, Tesla increased prices for its solar rooftops by 50%, and now requires anyone ordering solar photovoltaics (including Tesla solar roof tiles) to also order the Powerwall, Tesla’s home energy storage system. The sudden price change applied retroactively to some vexed customers.Musk said on the Q1 2021 call that he is aiming for homes with solar rooftops and batteries from Tesla to function as a “giant distributed utility” that can help incumbent electrical utilities supply customers with all the electricity they need as demand and extreme weather events increase.Executives did not say how they would change their production or mix of battery cells from suppliers in order to make a higher volume of vehicles and energy storage products in 2021.Musk said the company’s 4680 cells, which it developed independently and makes at a pilot plant in Fremont, California, are not yet reliable enough to be shipped in Tesla vehicles. He said Tesla would probably “achieve volume production” of these cells in 12 to 18 months.The company revealed in February it purchased $1.5 billion in bitcoin and would potentially invest in other cryptocurrencies in the future. By April, bitcoin rose to record levels before pulling back. In its statement of cash flows, Tesla revealed that it had sold $272 million worth of “digital assets,” presumably bitcoin, during the quarter.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":776,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":348217126,"gmtCreate":1617931875165,"gmtModify":1634295681786,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/348217126","repostId":"2126670406","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":84,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":341107220,"gmtCreate":1617788937360,"gmtModify":1634296505714,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/341107220","repostId":"1191592028","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1191592028","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1617788485,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1191592028?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-07 17:41","market":"us","language":"en","title":"7 Stocks That Will Survive The Semiconductor Shortage Long-Term","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1191592028","media":"investorplace","summary":"Semiconductor stocks have been in the limelight during the ongoing chip shortage, which has been aff","content":"<p>Semiconductor stocks have been in the limelight during the ongoing chip shortage, which has been affecting a range of firms, especially in the tech andautomotivesectors. Chips have had a significant impact on technology and innovation in the past several decades. Today, we find chips in items ranging from smartphones, to air conditioners, fridges, LED bulbs, rice cookers, TVs and cars, including electric vehicles (EVs). Therefore, today’s article discusses seven stocks that will survive the semiconductor shortage long-term.</p><p>Recent research published in the<i>Software Quality Professional</i>highlights, “The semiconductor industry has been a model for innovation over the last couple of decades. The complexity of integrated circuit (IC) designs has increased, and the process to produce them has become more challenging due to variable market demand.”</p><p>Most<i>InvestorPlace.com</i>readers are familiar with the fact that the semiconductor sector is mostly based on an outsourced manufacturing model. Put another way, most semiconductor firms design chips in-house that then get manufactured elsewhere. This type of fabrication is commonly referred to as “fab” or “foundry.”</p><p>As a cyclical industry, the semiconductor sector goes through periods of booms and busts. Developments in artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things, (IoT), and machine learning will increase the global demand for chips. Analysts concur the surging demand, especially the pandemic, for consumer electronics and EVs have in part contributed to the current shortage. Over the past year, chip shares have been firing on all cylinders. The widely-followed<b>PHLX Semiconductor Sector Index</b>returned about 129% in the past 12 months.</p><p>The chip industry is extremely important for our economy. According to a jointreportby the<b>Semiconductor Industry Association</b>and the<b>Boston Consulting Group</b>, “The US semiconductor industry has long been the global semiconductor leader, consistently accounting for 45% to 50% of global revenues.”Furthermore, “Growth in global semiconductor demand is projected to require a 56 percent increase in manufacturing over the next 10 years.”</p><p>With that information here are seven stocks as semiconductors continue to make the headlines:</p><ul><li><b>Applied Materials</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>AMAT</u></b>)</li><li><b>Hyundai Motor Company</b>(OTCMKTS:<b><u>HYMTF</u></b>)</li><li><b>Kulicke &amp; Soffa Industries</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>KLIC</u></b>)</li><li><b>Microsoft</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>MSFT</u></b>)</li><li><b>Nvidia</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<b><u>NVDA</u></b>)</li><li><b>Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:<b><u>TSM</u></b>)</li><li><b>Texas Instruments</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>TXN</u></b>)</li></ul><p>Semiconductors: Applied Materials (AMAT)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a958bed90a8af04ee3cb430b5c1ae98f\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: michelmond / Shutterstock.com</p><p><b>52-week range:</b>$46.22 – $146</p><p><b>YTD price change:</b>Up about 66%</p><p><b>Dividend yield:</b>0.7%</p><p>Santa Clara, California-based Applied Materials is one of the largest semiconductor fabrication equipment suppliers based on revenue. In other words, the group makes tools and equipment used in chip manufacturing. The company’s history goes back to 1967.</p><p>When foundries need more equipment, they turn to Applied Materials. The company also supplies LCD equipment for the flat panel display industry as well as photovoltaic (PV) technology manufacturing systems for the solar industry.</p><p>The companyreleasedfirst-quarter fiscal-year 2021 results on Feb. 18. Revenue was $5.16 billion. On a non-GAAP adjusted basis, Applied Materials reported gross margin of 45.9%, operating income of $1.50 billion, and EPS of $1.39. Cash from operations stood at $1.42 billion, and dividends paid was $201 million.</p><p>CEO Gary Dickerson said, “In our first fiscal quarter, we’ve seen a continued acceleration of demand in our semiconductor business as major macro and industry trends fuel increasing consumption of silicon across a wide range of markets and applications.”</p><p>AMAT relies on organic growth, therefore the chip shortage is providing tailwinds for the shares, which returned over 238% in the past year. Forward price-to-earnings (P/E) and price-to-sales (P/S) ratios stand at 23.81 and 7.17, respectively. April means a busy earnings season is upon us when many semiconductor stocks report. Any potential decline toward the $130 level or below would improve the margin of safety.</p><p><b>Hyundai Motor Company (HYMTF)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ded66556c6e35d4a93ae7d2c83140d3d\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Renovacio / Shutterstock.com</p><p><b>52-week range:</b>$20.29 – $71.00</p><p><b>YTD price change:</b>Up about 12%</p><p><b>Dividend yield:</b>2.9%</p><p>Our next stock comes from the automotive sector, one of the most affected industries during the current semiconductor shortage. Established in 1967, the South Korea-based Hyundai is a leading automobile manufacturer. It also owns a 34% stake in<b>Kia Motors</b>(OTCMKTS:<b><u>KIMTF</u></b>). In recent months, to the delight of investors, the company has been putting more resources intoEVs.</p><p>At the end of January, Hyundai Motor Companyannouncedits financial results for Q4 and full-year 2020. In the fourth-quarter, total sales volume declined by 4.7% year-over-year. Yet, Q4 sales revenue increased by 5.1 % YoY to 29.24 trillion KRW. Net profit grew by a massive 44% as the company recorded 1.38 trillion KRW in profit.</p><p>Analysts noted that new models, such as all-new Tucson SUV and Elantra sedan, as well as luxury brands, such as the G80 sedan and GV80 SUV of Genesis, helped boost sales momentum. In 2021, management expects a revenue growth of 14-15%.</p><p>In the past year, Hyundai shares returned 129%. The stock’s forward P/E and P/S are 4.21 and 0.15. Despite the run-up in price, the valuation is not frothy. Potential investors could consider buying the dips. I expect the company to increase its market share in the current markets and make progress in its EV penetration.</p><p><b>Kulicke &amp; Soffa Industries (KLIC)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/605a1759624d2673f0a2a3dc833ba11c\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Shutterstock</p><p><b>52-week range:</b>$20.10– $56.67</p><p><b>YTD price change:</b>Up about 75%</p><p><b>Dividend yield:</b>1.1%</p><p>Our next company is another semiconductor equipment stock.

Revenue showed a hefty 85.6% YoY increase, climbing to $267.9 million. Net income jumped by 187.2% YoY and reached $53.7 million. Diluted EPS followed a similar pattern and was up by 196.6% to hit 86 cents. Cash and equivalents were $576.7 million at the end of the period.</p><p>CEO Fusen Chen stated, “Demand has increased significantly in the December quarter driven by strength in the general semiconductor, LED and automotive markets.” The Company expects total sales revenue in Q2 2021 (ending April 3, 2021) to be approximately $300 million +/- $20 million.</p><p>KLIC stock’s price-to-book (P/B) and P/S ratios are 4.27 and 4.69. Finding undervalued growth stocks in the chip space is becoming increasingly difficult. But I expect the company to create shareholder value for many more quarters. Any decline toward $45 would offer a better opportunity to buy into the KLIC share price. Further bullish headlines regarding the semiconductor space will likely provide further momentum for the stock.</p><p><b>Microsoft (MSFT)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/621219977ed046c7c7577a7550f325bf\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: NYCStock / Shutterstock.com</p><p><b>52-week range:</b>$162.30 – $249.96</p><p><b>YTD price change:</b>Up about 12%</p><p><b>Dividend yield:</b>0.9%</p><p>Our next company, Microsoft, does not immediately come to mind as a semiconductor stocks.

Over the past 12 months, the shares have returned 61%. Given Microsoft’s resources and agility, we can expect the company to make inroads in chip manufacturing in the coming quarters. With this new initiative under its belt too, the company is likely to increase shareholder value throughout the rest of the year.</p><p><b>Nvidia (NVDA)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5bbb6bf546e62eeed04f797f6a76e666\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Antonio Baccardi / Shutterstock.com</p><p><b>52-week range:</b>$257 – $614.90</p><p><b>YTD price change:</b>Up about 6%</p><p><b>Dividend yield:</b>0.1%</p><p>With a market capitalization (cap) of about $343 billion, the Santa Clara, California-based Nvidia is one of the most important chip companies.

As a result, forward P/E and P/S ratios of 41.32 and 20.81 point to a frothy valuation. Coupled with sectoral volatility and rising Treasury yields, short-term profit-taking in the shares is likely. Buy-and-hold investors could regard any move toward the $500 level as a better entry point. In the long-run, Nvidia’s fast-growing top and bottom lines will lead to new record-highs in the share price.</p><p><b>Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/18b55d7461583e734f7c9ad217852772\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Shutterstock</p><p><b>52-week range:</b>$47.72 – $142.20</p><p><b>YTD price change:</b>Up about 12%</p><p><b>Dividend yield:</b>1.4%</p><p>Taiwan-based Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing is the world’s largest semiconductor foundry.

Today, we find chips in items ranging from smartphones, to air conditioners, fridges, LED bulbs, rice cookers, TVs and cars, including electric vehicles (EVs). Therefore, today’s article discusses seven stocks that will survive the semiconductor shortage long-term.Recent research published in theSoftware Quality Professionalhighlights, “The semiconductor industry has been a model for innovation over the last couple of decades. The complexity of integrated circuit (IC) designs has increased, and the process to produce them has become more challenging due to variable market demand.”MostInvestorPlace.comreaders are familiar with the fact that the semiconductor sector is mostly based on an outsourced manufacturing model. Put another way, most semiconductor firms design chips in-house that then get manufactured elsewhere. This type of fabrication is commonly referred to as “fab” or “foundry.”As a cyclical industry, the semiconductor sector goes through periods of booms and busts. Developments in artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things, (IoT), and machine learning will increase the global demand for chips. Analysts concur the surging demand, especially the pandemic, for consumer electronics and EVs have in part contributed to the current shortage. Over the past year, chip shares have been firing on all cylinders. The widely-followedPHLX Semiconductor Sector Indexreturned about 129% in the past 12 months.The chip industry is extremely important for our economy. According to a jointreportby theSemiconductor Industry Associationand theBoston Consulting Group, “The US semiconductor industry has long been the global semiconductor leader, consistently accounting for 45% to 50% of global revenues.”Furthermore, “Growth in global semiconductor demand is projected to require a 56 percent increase in manufacturing over the next 10 years.”With that information here are seven stocks as semiconductors continue to make the headlines:Applied Materials(NASDAQ:AMAT)Hyundai Motor Company(OTCMKTS:HYMTF)Kulicke & Soffa Industries(NASDAQ:KLIC)Microsoft(NASDAQ:MSFT)Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA)Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (NYSE:TSM)Texas Instruments(NASDAQ:TXN)Semiconductors: Applied Materials (AMAT)Source: michelmond / Shutterstock.com52-week range:$46.22 – $146YTD price change:Up about 66%Dividend yield:0.7%Santa Clara, California-based Applied Materials is one of the largest semiconductor fabrication equipment suppliers based on revenue. In other words, the group makes tools and equipment used in chip manufacturing. The company’s history goes back to 1967.When foundries need more equipment, they turn to Applied Materials. The company also supplies LCD equipment for the flat panel display industry as well as photovoltaic (PV) technology manufacturing systems for the solar industry.The companyreleasedfirst-quarter fiscal-year 2021 results on Feb. 18. Revenue was $5.16 billion. On a non-GAAP adjusted basis, Applied Materials reported gross margin of 45.9%, operating income of $1.50 billion, and EPS of $1.39. Cash from operations stood at $1.42 billion, and dividends paid was $201 million.CEO Gary Dickerson said, “In our first fiscal quarter, we’ve seen a continued acceleration of demand in our semiconductor business as major macro and industry trends fuel increasing consumption of silicon across a wide range of markets and applications.”AMAT relies on organic growth, therefore the chip shortage is providing tailwinds for the shares, which returned over 238% in the past year. Forward price-to-earnings (P/E) and price-to-sales (P/S) ratios stand at 23.81 and 7.17, respectively. April means a busy earnings season is upon us when many semiconductor stocks report. Any potential decline toward the $130 level or below would improve the margin of safety.Hyundai Motor Company (HYMTF)Source: Renovacio / Shutterstock.com52-week range:$20.29 – $71.00YTD price change:Up about 12%Dividend yield:2.9%Our next stock comes from the automotive sector, one of the most affected industries during the current semiconductor shortage. Established in 1967, the South Korea-based Hyundai is a leading automobile manufacturer. It also owns a 34% stake inKia Motors(OTCMKTS:KIMTF). In recent months, to the delight of investors, the company has been putting more resources intoEVs.At the end of January, Hyundai Motor Companyannouncedits financial results for Q4 and full-year 2020. In the fourth-quarter, total sales volume declined by 4.7% year-over-year. Yet, Q4 sales revenue increased by 5.1 % YoY to 29.24 trillion KRW. Net profit grew by a massive 44% as the company recorded 1.38 trillion KRW in profit.Analysts noted that new models, such as all-new Tucson SUV and Elantra sedan, as well as luxury brands, such as the G80 sedan and GV80 SUV of Genesis, helped boost sales momentum. In 2021, management expects a revenue growth of 14-15%.In the past year, Hyundai shares returned 129%. The stock’s forward P/E and P/S are 4.21 and 0.15. Despite the run-up in price, the valuation is not frothy. Potential investors could consider buying the dips. I expect the company to increase its market share in the current markets and make progress in its EV penetration.Kulicke & Soffa Industries (KLIC)Source: Shutterstock52-week range:$20.10– $56.67YTD price change:Up about 75%Dividend yield:1.1%Our next company is another semiconductor equipment stock. Singapore-based Kulicke & Soffa Industries provides semiconductor, LED and electronic assembly solutions for a range of industries. It generates most of its revenue from the Asia-Pacific region.Kulicke & Soffa announced itsQ1 2021results at the beginning of February. Revenue showed a hefty 85.6% YoY increase, climbing to $267.9 million. Net income jumped by 187.2% YoY and reached $53.7 million. Diluted EPS followed a similar pattern and was up by 196.6% to hit 86 cents. Cash and equivalents were $576.7 million at the end of the period.CEO Fusen Chen stated, “Demand has increased significantly in the December quarter driven by strength in the general semiconductor, LED and automotive markets.” The Company expects total sales revenue in Q2 2021 (ending April 3, 2021) to be approximately $300 million +/- $20 million.KLIC stock’s price-to-book (P/B) and P/S ratios are 4.27 and 4.69. Finding undervalued growth stocks in the chip space is becoming increasingly difficult. But I expect the company to create shareholder value for many more quarters. Any decline toward $45 would offer a better opportunity to buy into the KLIC share price. Further bullish headlines regarding the semiconductor space will likely provide further momentum for the stock.Microsoft (MSFT)Source: NYCStock / Shutterstock.com52-week range:$162.30 – $249.96YTD price change:Up about 12%Dividend yield:0.9%Our next company, Microsoft, does not immediately come to mind as a semiconductor stocks. As one of the biggest technology companies of the world, the firm is best known for its Windows operating systems, Office productivity suite and increasingly for Microsoft Azure, its cloud services.The company has recentlyannouncedit would start making its own chips so that it could rely less onIntel’s(NASDAQ:INTC) technology. In November 2020, the company introduced theMicrosoft Plutonprocessor. On another note, co-founded Bill Gates has recentlyinvestedin “Luminous, a small start-up building an artificial intelligence chip.”Management announcedQ2 2021results at the end of January. Revenue increased by 17% YoY to hit $43.1 billion. The biggest revenue driver was the intelligent cloud segment with a hefty 23% YoY increase. Net income rose by 33% YoY and reached $15.5 billion. Diluted EPS also jumped by 34% YoY to $2.03. Cash and equivalents at the end of period stood at $132 billion.Amy Hood, Microsoft CFO, cited “For FY21, with our strong performance in the first half of the fiscal year and our outlook for Q3, we expect to deliver another full year of double-digit revenue and operating income growth, as well as healthy operating margin expansion even after excluding the impact of the change in accounting estimate and COVID-related savings.”MSFT stock’sforward P/Eand P/S are 30.86 and 12.42. In recent days, the company made the headlines when it announced that it has secured a massive Pentagon contract worth over $20 billion. Investors were delighted. Over the past 12 months, the shares have returned 61%. Given Microsoft’s resources and agility, we can expect the company to make inroads in chip manufacturing in the coming quarters. With this new initiative under its belt too, the company is likely to increase shareholder value throughout the rest of the year.Nvidia (NVDA)Source: Antonio Baccardi / Shutterstock.com52-week range:$257 – $614.90YTD price change:Up about 6%Dividend yield:0.1%With a market capitalization (cap) of about $343 billion, the Santa Clara, California-based Nvidia is one of the most important chip companies. It focuses on personal computer (PC) graphics, graphics processing units (GPU) and AI. Nvidia is well-known for its GPU chips and Tegra Processors. Its GPU product brands are aimed at specialized markets, including GeForce for gamers, Quadro for designers, Tesla and DGX for AI data scientists and big data researchers, and GRID for cloud-based visual computing users.In late February, the companyannouncedQ4 and full-year results. The record quarterly revenue of $5 billion meant an increase of 61% YoY and 6% sequentially. Non-GAAP EPS was $3.10, up 64% YoY and 7% sequentially.Nvidia reports revenue in four segments:Data Center (Q4 revenue was a record $1.9 billion)Gaming (Q4 revenue was a record $2.5 billion)Professional Visualization (Q4 revenue was $307 million)Automotive (Q4 revenue was $145 million)In the past 12 months, NVDA stock is up about 116%. As a result, forward P/E and P/S ratios of 41.32 and 20.81 point to a frothy valuation. Coupled with sectoral volatility and rising Treasury yields, short-term profit-taking in the shares is likely. Buy-and-hold investors could regard any move toward the $500 level as a better entry point. In the long-run, Nvidia’s fast-growing top and bottom lines will lead to new record-highs in the share price.Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM)Source: Shutterstock52-week range:$47.72 – $142.20YTD price change:Up about 12%Dividend yield:1.4%Taiwan-based Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing is the world’s largest semiconductor foundry. It is highly regarded for its semiconductor process technology, and currently serves over 500 customers worldwide. The company dominates the fab side of the semiconductor space.In mid-January, TSM announced Q4 fiscal year 2020results. Consolidated revenue showed an increase of 14% YoY. Net income was also up 23% YoY. Diluted EPS was $0.97 per ADR unit, increasing 23% YoY.Wendell Huang, VP and Chief Financial Officer, cited, “Moving into first quarter 2021, we expect our business to be supported by HPC-related demand, recovery in the automotive segment, and a milder smartphone seasonality than in recent years.”In the past 52 weeks, TSM stock is up close to 160%. Forward P/E and P/S ratios are 32.79 and 13.74, respectively. The company is expected to release Q1 results in the coming days. Potential investors might want to analyze the metrics and wait for a potential pull-back in the share price. A decline toward the $110 level would improve the margin of safety. The global chip shortage should mean strong demand for the company.Texas Instruments(TXN)Source: Katherine Welles / Shutterstock.com52-week range:$105.30 – $197.58YTD price change:Up about 19%Dividend yield:2.1%For our next stock, Texas Instruments, we go from Taiwan to Dallas, Texas. The company focuses on analog chips and embedded processors. With 14 manufacturing sites worldwide, the chip group provides 80,000 products for over 100,000 customers, which mostly come from the consumer electronics, automotive and industrial markets.TXNannouncedQ4 and full-year results in late January.Revenue was $4.08 billion, an increase of 22% YoY.Net income came at $1.69 billion, up 58% YoY.EPS of $1.80 also meant an increase of 61% YoY.Free cash flow during the quarter was $1.9 billion. Analysts concurred that it was a robust quarter for the group.CEO Rich Templeton commented, “Together, our dividends and stock repurchases reflect our continued commitment to return all free cash flow to our owners. TI’s first quarter outlook is for revenue in the range of $3.79 billion to $4.11 billion and earnings per share between $1.44 and $1.66.”In the past year, TXN shares returned over 85%. The stock’s forward P/E and P/S ratios are 30.03 and 12.71 respectively. Buy-and-hold investors could consider an investment around $180 or below. During April, the shares should be under the radar.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":214,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":356532132,"gmtCreate":1616789472526,"gmtModify":1634523995261,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/356532132","repostId":"2122472374","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":134,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":342009196,"gmtCreate":1618120633715,"gmtModify":1634294796760,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/342009196","repostId":"1142324412","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":223,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":379643464,"gmtCreate":1618733927358,"gmtModify":1634291183456,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/379643464","repostId":"1175692875","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1175692875","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1618582708,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1175692875?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-16 22:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"$544 Billion In Options Expire Today: Here's What Will Move","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1175692875","media":"zerohedge","summary":"While it's not quad (or even triple) witching day, today's a whole lot of weekly options will expire","content":"<p>While it's not quad (or even triple) witching day, today's a whole lot of weekly options will expire, may of which will be worthless, and others will be providing a supporting \"pin\" to underlying prices.

We’ve not seen the Call Wall “breached” this many times before, but there are other aberrations that we’ve mentioned in previous notes – like net put sales. We’ve got some theories on this we are posting in a longer form piece.\"</p><p>According to SG, because implied volatility has now compressed (ie VIX at new lows) there is now more potential for “long term” volatility. 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;

As Goldman puts it, \"expiration-related activity is likely to have more of an impact if the open interest represents a significant percentage of the stock’s volume.\"Finally, for what it's worth, this morning our friends at SpotGamma write that this has been a rather strange OPEX cycle, \"with a consistent almost mechanical bid pushing markets higher. We’ve not seen the Call Wall “breached” this many times before, but there are other aberrations that we’ve mentioned in previous notes – like net put sales. We’ve got some theories on this we are posting in a longer form piece.\"According to SG, because implied volatility has now compressed (ie VIX at new lows) there is now more potential for “long term” volatility. 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},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":314,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":344046374,"gmtCreate":1618362884298,"gmtModify":1634293473680,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/344046374","repostId":"2127045633","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":279,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":105352916,"gmtCreate":1620272829535,"gmtModify":1634206463899,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/105352916","repostId":"2133652936","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1093,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":100649016,"gmtCreate":1619612481035,"gmtModify":1634211355891,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/100649016","repostId":"1131068131","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":614,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":374303642,"gmtCreate":1619414610586,"gmtModify":1634273656115,"author":{"id":"3577228295427504","authorId":"3577228295427504","name":"sinkiat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91aed5765292067451bc4b8115223c56","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577228295427504","authorIdStr":"3577228295427504"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment please!","listText":"like and comment please!","text":"like and comment please!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/374303642","repostId":"1184404050","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":712,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
