Though EVs may be the future, they’re still awfully expensive. As well, lack of infrastructure is a major challenge. Therefore, my general bullishness in&nbsp;<b>Churchill Capital</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CCIV</u></b>) seems contradictory. Wouldn’t CCIV stock succumb to the difficulties?</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/521b487b052e6677651c06981adc8993\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: gg5795 / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>Adding the most skepticism is that Lucid Motors is about as aspirational of a company as you can get. Technically, the term is pre-revenue, which is just euphemism for aspirational, which is also euphemism for extremely speculative. But that’s not going to appeal to investors of the special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) which Lucid will reverse merger with. So pre-revenue it is for CCIV stock.</p>\n<p>Markets analyst Joanna Makris pointed out the other glaring problem with the EV hopeful and that’s valuation. Simply put, you can make the argument that the premium for CCIV stock is completely out of touch with reality. She wrote:</p>\n<blockquote>\n While Lucid’s valuation falls short of the previous $42 billion estimate, it’s still aggressive by any measure. As a comparison, at an implied $38 billion,&nbsp;Lucid would trade at the&nbsp;same market capitalization&nbsp;as&nbsp;\n <b>Tesla</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:\n <b>TSLA</b>) in early 2017.But there’s another wrench in Lucid’s numbers, so to speak. Lucid’s final valuation will depend on what portion of Lucid’s PIPE investors cash in on redemptions. The PIPE priced at $15 — a roughly 60% discount to CCIV’s current $24 share price.&nbsp;With the lockup expiring in September, there’s a high likelihood that these short-term insiders take their profits. And that’s&nbsp;another reason for downside in CCIV stock.\n</blockquote>\n<p>With so many challenges in Lucid’s pipeline, is playing this reverse merger worth a shot?</p>\n<p><b>CCIV Stock Is Strangely the EV Investment You Can Trust</b></p>\n<p>I’ll expand on an issue that I only briefly mentioned above and that’s infrastructure. If the U.S. were to make a pivot to EVs, infrastructure to around the level that you see gasoline stations today for combustion cars is a must. For various reasons, we can’t all just charge at home.</p>\n<p>But to loosely paraphrase Dr. Emmett Brown, “Infrastructure? Where we’re going, we don’t need infrastructure.”</p>\n<p>While so many EV companies — and legacy automakers pivoting toward EVs — have their eyes on building vehicles for the average household, Lucid is going completely the opposite direction. Specifically focused on premium luxury EVs, the company’s cheapest offering start at just under $70,000. For context, themedian U.S. household income was $68,703 in 2019.</p>\n<p>Logically, the folks that are even considering buying Lucid EVs already have access to ample charging infrastructure: their own. Yes, I understand that someone making $70,000 could conceivably go out and buy one. But most people don’t spend 100% of their pre-tax income on a car. That would be nuts.</p>\n<p>Plus, you’ve got to figure that Lucid’s target audience would already have another vehicle at the ready, whether electric or not. Sure, multiple variables exist with CCIV stock. But infrastructure concerns will not be one of them.</p>\n<p>However, you can’t say that if you’re aiming for the lower end of the price spectrum. Here, infrastructure very much matters because not everybody has access to a garage or carport to do their charging.

Though EVs may be the future, they’re still awfully expensive. As well, lack of infrastructure is a major challenge. Therefore, my general bullishness in Churchill Capital(NYSE:CCIV) seems contradictory. Wouldn’t CCIV stock succumb to the difficulties?\nSource: gg5795 / Shutterstock.com\nAdding the most skepticism is that Lucid Motors is about as aspirational of a company as you can get. Technically, the term is pre-revenue, which is just euphemism for aspirational, which is also euphemism for extremely speculative. But that’s not going to appeal to investors of the special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) which Lucid will reverse merger with. So pre-revenue it is for CCIV stock.\nMarkets analyst Joanna Makris pointed out the other glaring problem with the EV hopeful and that’s valuation. Simply put, you can make the argument that the premium for CCIV stock is completely out of touch with reality. She wrote:\n\n While Lucid’s valuation falls short of the previous $42 billion estimate, it’s still aggressive by any measure. As a comparison, at an implied $38 billion, Lucid would trade at the same market capitalization as \n Tesla (NASDAQ:\n TSLA) in early 2017.But there’s another wrench in Lucid’s numbers, so to speak. Lucid’s final valuation will depend on what portion of Lucid’s PIPE investors cash in on redemptions. The PIPE priced at $15 — a roughly 60% discount to CCIV’s current $24 share price. With the lockup expiring in September, there’s a high likelihood that these short-term insiders take their profits. And that’s another reason for downside in CCIV stock.\n\nWith so many challenges in Lucid’s pipeline, is playing this reverse merger worth a shot?\nCCIV Stock Is Strangely the EV Investment You Can Trust\nI’ll expand on an issue that I only briefly mentioned above and that’s infrastructure. If the U.S. were to make a pivot to EVs, infrastructure to around the level that you see gasoline stations today for combustion cars is a must. For various reasons, we can’t all just charge at home.\nBut to loosely paraphrase Dr. Emmett Brown, “Infrastructure? Where we’re going, we don’t need infrastructure.”\nWhile so many EV companies — and legacy automakers pivoting toward EVs — have their eyes on building vehicles for the average household, Lucid is going completely the opposite direction. Specifically focused on premium luxury EVs, the company’s cheapest offering start at just under $70,000. For context, themedian U.S. household income was $68,703 in 2019.\nLogically, the folks that are even considering buying Lucid EVs already have access to ample charging infrastructure: their own. Yes, I understand that someone making $70,000 could conceivably go out and buy one. But most people don’t spend 100% of their pre-tax income on a car. That would be nuts.\nPlus, you’ve got to figure that Lucid’s target audience would already have another vehicle at the ready, whether electric or not. Sure, multiple variables exist with CCIV stock. But infrastructure concerns will not be one of them.\nHowever, you can’t say that if you’re aiming for the lower end of the price spectrum. Here, infrastructure very much matters because not everybody has access to a garage or carport to do their charging. And in some locales, money isn’t necessarily the central issue.\nFor instance, theWall Street Journalnoted thatNew Yorkers bought personal vehicles for the first timeduring last year’s novel coronavirus outbreak. Usually, that’s a superfluous purchase in that area due to the abundance of public transport options and that owning a car is a pain. So if people from these areas continue to go electric, infrastructure is a necessity.\nSpeculative But Rational\nHaving said all that, I don’t outright disagree with Makris. The valuation on CCIV stock is incredibly rich. I don’t think anybody will deny that. But really, the question is whether or not it’s justified.\nObviously, no one but yourself can answer that. What I will suggest is that CCIV stock is a speculative albeit rational investment. Yes, it’s priced high but the business model is the one that makes the most sense. Currently, we don’t have solid-state battery technology to make fully functional EVs that are priced like a base model Civic or Camry.\nWith Lucid, that question is not part of the equation whatsoever. Do you see Ferrari(NYSE:RACE) sweating bullets about who can afford the cars? Heck no! In fact, you have toearn the brand’s respectbefore you can be on the waiting list.\nLucid isn’t in that same ballpark but it’s a similar idea. By focusing on a specific, high-end market, it takes away the variability that you would incur if you had to rely on mass consumer sentiment.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"CCIV":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1224,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121063055,"gmtCreate":1624444977777,"gmtModify":1631883705289,"author":{"id":"3579351675564800","authorId":"3579351675564800","name":"Wookaka","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d13f2b4ff94c3f0d585387fba72a9aa7","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579351675564800","authorIdStr":"3579351675564800"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sell","listText":"Sell","text":"Sell","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/121063055","repostId":"2145509616","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1398,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121069557,"gmtCreate":1624444962979,"gmtModify":1631883705300,"author":{"id":"3579351675564800","authorId":"3579351675564800","name":"Wookaka","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d13f2b4ff94c3f0d585387fba72a9aa7","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579351675564800","authorIdStr":"3579351675564800"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Trm","listText":"Trm","text":"Trm","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/121069557","repostId":"2145096879","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2145096879","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624441800,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2145096879?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-23 17:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"GameStop gives investors 1.6 billion reasons to care about the meme trade: Morning Brief","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2145096879","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"This article first appeared in the Morning Brief.

At 576,000, new claims broke below the Great Recession-era high of 665,000 filed in March 2009 for the first time in more than a year. And claims have dropped precipitously from their all-time high of 6.1 million from last spring.</p>\n<p>But the labor market recovery has still been choppy, and the general downtrend in new jobless claims over the past several months has come with some bumps higher.

Here were the main metrics expected from the report, compared to consensus data compiled by Bloomberg:\n\nInitial jobless claims, week ended April 17: 610,000 expected vs. 576,000 during the prior week\nContinuing claims, week ended April 3: 3.640 million expected vs. 3.731 million during the prior week\n\nLast week's new claims came as a welcome surprise after more than a year of elevated initial filings. At 576,000, new claims broke below the Great Recession-era high of 665,000 filed in March 2009 for the first time in more than a year. And claims have dropped precipitously from their all-time high of 6.1 million from last spring.\nBut the labor market recovery has still been choppy, and the general downtrend in new jobless claims over the past several months has come with some bumps higher. Other reports have also underscored the stop-and-start nature of the rebound, with the Federal Reserve's latest Beige Book last week noting that many regions continued to experience labor shortages as well as hiring challenges over the past several weeks.\n\nAnd even within the jobless claims report, some metrics have remained stubbornly elevated and pointed to persistently high levels of unemployment.

initial public offering, at $9.50 per American depositary share, which was at the low end of the expected range. The China-based online content company offered 55 million ADS in the IPO to raise $522.5 million, while the pricing valued the company at about $5.31 billion.</p><p>Zhihu has a similar business model as Quora where millions of people ask questions and exchange their views and experiences. Zhihu has become the largest online question and answer community in China.</p><p><b>Sales Breakdown</b></p><p>Advertising and paid memberships account for the biggest portion of the company's revenues. Advertising accounted for 86.1% and 62.4% of total revenues in 2019 and 2020, respectively. We estimate advertising as a percentage of revenues to gradually decline in the next five years as it is offset by the faster growing Paid Memberships and Content Commerce Solutions. We estimate advertising as a percentage of sales to decline to 34.1% in 2021 and 22.3% in 2025.</p><p>Paid Memberships represented 13.1% of total revenues in 2019, which increased to 23.7% of total revenues in 2020. We have assumed Paid Membership revenues as a percentage of total revenues to increase to 31.5% in 2021 and 37.8% in 2025.</p><p>Content Commerce Solutions and Other sales also increased sharply in 2020. Content Commerce Solutions revenues jumped from 0.6 million RMB in 2019 to 135.8 million RMB in 2020. In early 2020, the company launched Content-Commerce solutions, which provide merchants and brands a one-stop shop for all of their sales and marketing needs, including marketing plans. We have assumed Content Commerce Solutions as a percentage of total revenue to jump from 10% in 2020 to 17.8% in 2021 and 32.3% in 2025.</p><p><b>Gross Margins</b></p><p>The company's gross margins improved from 46.6% in 2019 to 56.0% in 2020, driven by an overall improving business scalability. We have assumed further improvements in gross margins to 57.4% in 2021 and 62.3% in 2025.</p><p><b>Total Operating Expenses and Operating Margins</b></p><p>Total operating expenses as a percentage of revenues declined significantly from 204.4% in 2019 to 100.6% in 2020. We expect this ratio to improve further to 79% in 2021, 69.2% in 2022, and 57.2% in 2025. The bulk of the improvements in operating expenses is coming from lower SG&amp;A and R&amp;D expenses as a percentage of revenues in the next five years.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c019cc86f4d4c1d9ffe15d3b4a4bfa75\" tg-width=\"772\" tg-height=\"480\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ef629be32d2c34d625cb287ad648206d\" tg-width=\"757\" tg-height=\"488\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b9561a02993fbc88c2cad88e68c08730\" tg-width=\"920\" tg-height=\"485\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>Company Background</b></p><p>At the end of 2020, Zhihu had more than 43.1 million cumulative content creators that contributed 315 million questions and answers. In 4Q 2020, the company had 75.7 million average monthly active users, up 33% YoY. One of the key strengths of the company is that it is recognized as one of the most trustworthy online content communities and regarded as providing one of the highest quality content in China. Zhihu has tried to capitalize on its large user base to provide numerous multimedia functions including live streaming, e-commerce, online education, and other video content.</p><p>In August 2019, Zhihu received $434 million in funding from leading investors including Baidu and Kuaishou Technology, valuing the company at $3.5 billion. Given that the company had $97 million in sales in 2019, this would suggest a P/S valuation multiple of 36x. If we take the same P/S multiple apply to the company's 2020 sales of $207 million, this would suggest an implied valuation of $7.5 billion.</p><p>Zhihu was originally developed as a question and answer online community in 2010. At the end of 2020, there were a total of 315 million Q&amp;As spanning more than 1,000 verticals and 571,000 topics. Zhihu is one of the top five comprehensive online content communities in China, in terms of average mobile MAUs and revenue in 2020. The company uses artificial intelligence, cloud, and big data algorithms to improve the optimization of its content and services.</p><p><b>Major Shareholders of Zhihu</b></p><p>The founder &amp; CEO&nbsp;Zhou Yuanowns an 8.2% stake in the company (but 46.6% voting rights). Sinovation Ventures owns a 13.1% stake and Tencent Holdings Ltd. owns a 12.3% stake of Zhihu.</p><p><b>Key Demographics</b></p><p>The diagram below provides some of the key demographics of Zhihu user base.

Many of the users of Zhihu are students and white collar professionals.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/524d689472daad1c99491d74dfdbfe24\" tg-width=\"295\" tg-height=\"389\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>Revenue Breakdown</b></p><p>Advertising and paid memberships account for the biggest portion of the company's revenues. Advertising accounted for 86.1% and 62.4% of total revenues in 2019 and 2020, respectively. The company's advertising revenue is mainly driven by its MAUs and advertising revenue per MAU. The company's MAUs increased by 42.7% YoY to 68.5 million in 2020. The company started its online advertising business in 2016 and introduced paid content in 2018.</p><p>Paid memberships represented 13.1% of total revenues in 2019, which increased to 23.7% of total revenues in 2020. Average monthly members jumped by 311.5% YoY to 2.36 million in 2020, which is a testament of an increasing number of customers that value the premium content available on Zhihu.</p><p>In March 2019, the company introduced the Yan Selection membership program, making it the first payment-based questions &amp; answers community. It provides its members with unlimited access to about 3.4 million paid content including online lectures, columns, audio books, and e-journals. This is one of the biggest strengths of the company as it shows how high quality data and content can generate serious amount of revenues and it also provides a more steady monthly revenue inflow.</p><p>Content Commerce Solutions and Other sales also increased sharply in 2020. Content Commerce Solutions revenues jumped from 0.6 million RMB in 2019 to 135.8 million RMB in 2020. In early 2020, the company launched Content-Commerce solutions, which provide merchants and brands a one-stop shop for all of their sales and marketing needs, including marketing plans, assigning the most relevant content creators to interested users, and facilitating content creation.</p><p>China's content-commerce solution market is expected to be one of the fastest growing sectors in the next several years. According to CIC Consultancy, China's content-commerce solution market is expected to enjoy a strong CAGR growth of 46.4% from 2019 to 2025 (112.3 billion RMB).</p><p><b>Market Opportunities</b></p><p><b>China’s Online Content Communities Market Size</b></p><p>Online content communities refer to UGC (user generated content)-focused (including PUGC (professional user generated content) focused online content market players where content creators are also users, who are actively engaged within the communities. The content communities generally can stimulate higher level of user engagement, more interactive user experience, and enjoy lower content cost, compared to PGC (professionally generated content) players. PGC is content created by the branded company or organization.</p><p>China's online content communities market size increased from 38.6 billion RMB in 2015 to 275.8 billion RMB in 2019 and is further expected to rise to 1.3 trillion RMB in 2025, representing a CAGR of 30.3% from 2019 to 2025, which is higher than the overall online content market growth.</p><p>China's online content community market has more diversified monetization channels including online advertising, paid membership, content e-commerce, content-commerce solutions, virtual gifting in live streaming, online games, and online education services. In comparison, the US online content community's monetization is mainly through advertising.</p><p>One of the major positives about the company is the growing trend of more Chinese consumers that are willing to pay money for higher quality content. The number of paying users in China’s online content communities is expected to increase at a CAGR of 17.1% between 2019 and 2025, which means an increase of 360.4 million extra paying users of online content communities to 588.2 million in 2025.</p><p><b>China's Online Content Market</b></p><p>China's online content market tripled from 2015 to reach 1.2 trillion RMB in 2019.

Unemployment claims for the week ending March 13 were 684,000, vs. 730,000 expected.</p>\n<p>In a note this week, Renaissance Macro Research's Neil Dutta outlined five bullish indicators that indicate the labor market “really is picking up steam right now,” as vaccinations ramp up and temperatures warm up — along with the economy.</p>\n<p>“I would guess that we see jobs growth at least over one million in March,” Dutta wrote. “The current consensus is around 550,000 though only 11 folks have their estimates into Bloomberg. I would take the over.”</p>\n<p>In a recent note, JPMorgan’s job tracker based on alternative data sources showed a clear acceleration in total employment.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/71deaaa4b933bc16feacc0ebdfe37f7a\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"496\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Tracking alternative data shows jobs picking up. (JPM)<b>Five good signs</b></p>\n<p>Dutta’s five signs and JPMorgan’s “alternative data,” paint a picture of future numbers that look bullish.</p>\n<p>The Census Bureau’s Small Business Pulse Survey showed a 7.1% increase in paid employment in mid-March, as well as a similar increase in hours worked.</p>\n<p>“I haven’t seen numbers like this since last summer,” Dutta wrote. “Recall that average jobs growth in Q3 2020 was 1.174 million per month.”</p>\n<p>Two other bullish surveys tell a similar story. The Dallas Fed’s Real Time Population Survey showed employment rates for working-age adults spiked from mid-February to mid-March, from 68.6% to 70.9% and a similar drop in the unemployment rate also occurred. The Household Pulse Survey told a similar story of a spike in job growth, with double the increase of a “normal March,” Dutta noted.</p>\n<p>The American Staffing Association’s Staffing Index was also up 11.2%. “Taking the index at face value implies that temp-help employment has reversed all of its pandemic-related job losses,” Dutta wrote.</p>\n<p>Lastly, people are driving a lot more. Google’s mobility data shows a spike in movement in the leisure and hospitality sector – hit especially hard during the pandemic – now at last July’s volume.</p>\n<p>“We have not seen improvement this rapid since the initial reopening in the economy last spring,” Dutta wrote. “So, the decline in COVID cases is likely pushing up employment as businesses restart.”</p>\n<p>Some analysts are drawing larger conclusions based on this data – and the predictions are rosy.</p>\n<p>Bank of America, which revised its GDP growth to 7% in 2021 and 5.5% in 2022, up 0.5 percentage points each, wrote that the growth in GDP would also mean a “faster healing in the labor market,” almost a million new jobs a month.</p>\n<p>“Based on our projections, the unemployment rate will reach 4.5% by year-end and slip [under 4%] next summer,” according to a note from Bank of America. “Our forecasts imply a return to the pre-COVID level of jobs by 1Q 2022 and pre-COVID participation rate by the end of next year.

Unemployment claims for the week ending March 13 were 684,000, vs. 730,000 expected.\nIn a note this week, Renaissance Macro Research's Neil Dutta outlined five bullish indicators that indicate the labor market “really is picking up steam right now,” as vaccinations ramp up and temperatures warm up — along with the economy.\n“I would guess that we see jobs growth at least over one million in March,” Dutta wrote. “The current consensus is around 550,000 though only 11 folks have their estimates into Bloomberg. I would take the over.”\nIn a recent note, JPMorgan’s job tracker based on alternative data sources showed a clear acceleration in total employment.\nTracking alternative data shows jobs picking up. (JPM)Five good signs\nDutta’s five signs and JPMorgan’s “alternative data,” paint a picture of future numbers that look bullish.\nThe Census Bureau’s Small Business Pulse Survey showed a 7.1% increase in paid employment in mid-March, as well as a similar increase in hours worked.\n“I haven’t seen numbers like this since last summer,” Dutta wrote. “Recall that average jobs growth in Q3 2020 was 1.174 million per month.”\nTwo other bullish surveys tell a similar story. The Dallas Fed’s Real Time Population Survey showed employment rates for working-age adults spiked from mid-February to mid-March, from 68.6% to 70.9% and a similar drop in the unemployment rate also occurred. The Household Pulse Survey told a similar story of a spike in job growth, with double the increase of a “normal March,” Dutta noted.\nThe American Staffing Association’s Staffing Index was also up 11.2%. “Taking the index at face value implies that temp-help employment has reversed all of its pandemic-related job losses,” Dutta wrote.\nLastly, people are driving a lot more. Google’s mobility data shows a spike in movement in the leisure and hospitality sector – hit especially hard during the pandemic – now at last July’s volume.\n“We have not seen improvement this rapid since the initial reopening in the economy last spring,” Dutta wrote. “So, the decline in COVID cases is likely pushing up employment as businesses restart.”\nSome analysts are drawing larger conclusions based on this data – and the predictions are rosy.\nBank of America, which revised its GDP growth to 7% in 2021 and 5.5% in 2022, up 0.5 percentage points each, wrote that the growth in GDP would also mean a “faster healing in the labor market,” almost a million new jobs a month.\n“Based on our projections, the unemployment rate will reach 4.5% by year-end and slip [under 4%] next summer,” according to a note from Bank of America. “Our forecasts imply a return to the pre-COVID level of jobs by 1Q 2022 and pre-COVID participation rate by the end of next year. This means the employment-to-population will have fully healed by the end of next year.”","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":262,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":352093411,"gmtCreate":1616824878633,"gmtModify":1634523801302,"author":{"id":"3579351675564800","authorId":"3579351675564800","name":"Wookaka","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d13f2b4ff94c3f0d585387fba72a9aa7","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579351675564800","authorIdStr":"3579351675564800"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/352093411","repostId":"1122701391","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":531,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":352093122,"gmtCreate":1616824802866,"gmtModify":1634523801663,"author":{"id":"3579351675564800","authorId":"3579351675564800","name":"Wookaka","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d13f2b4ff94c3f0d585387fba72a9aa7","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579351675564800","authorIdStr":"3579351675564800"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Likewise n comment&nbsp;","listText":"Likewise n comment&nbsp;","text":"Likewise n comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/352093122","repostId":"1141686975","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1141686975","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":1616780260,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1141686975?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-27 01:37","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Zhihu Technology fall on its first day of trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1141686975","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Zhihu Technology shares opened at $8.02 each on Friday, about 15.6% lower than the company’s IPO pri","content":"<p>Zhihu Technology shares opened at $8.02&nbsp;each on Friday, about 15.6% lower than the company’s IPO price&nbsp;$9.5.Zhihu IPO prices at low end of the range, valuing company at about $5.3 billion.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4672a089b4ebb0a889cbfbeb32b48594\" tg-width=\"1920\" tg-height=\"959\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Zhihu Inc.&nbsp;announced Friday the pricing of its initial public offering, at $9.50 per American depositary share, which was at the low end of the expected range.

Zhihu has become the largest online question and answer community in China.</p><p><b>Sales Breakdown</b></p><p>Advertising and paid memberships account for the biggest portion of the company's revenues. Advertising accounted for 86.1% and 62.4% of total revenues in 2019 and 2020, respectively. We estimate advertising as a percentage of revenues to gradually decline in the next five years as it is offset by the faster growing Paid Memberships and Content Commerce Solutions. We estimate advertising as a percentage of sales to decline to 34.1% in 2021 and 22.3% in 2025.</p><p>Paid Memberships represented 13.1% of total revenues in 2019, which increased to 23.7% of total revenues in 2020. We have assumed Paid Membership revenues as a percentage of total revenues to increase to 31.5% in 2021 and 37.8% in 2025.</p><p>Content Commerce Solutions and Other sales also increased sharply in 2020. Content Commerce Solutions revenues jumped from 0.6 million RMB in 2019 to 135.8 million RMB in 2020. In early 2020, the company launched Content-Commerce solutions, which provide merchants and brands a one-stop shop for all of their sales and marketing needs, including marketing plans. We have assumed Content Commerce Solutions as a percentage of total revenue to jump from 10% in 2020 to 17.8% in 2021 and 32.3% in 2025.</p><p><b>Gross Margins</b></p><p>The company's gross margins improved from 46.6% in 2019 to 56.0% in 2020, driven by an overall improving business scalability. We have assumed further improvements in gross margins to 57.4% in 2021 and 62.3% in 2025.</p><p><b>Total Operating Expenses and Operating Margins</b></p><p>Total operating expenses as a percentage of revenues declined significantly from 204.4% in 2019 to 100.6% in 2020. We expect this ratio to improve further to 79% in 2021, 69.2% in 2022, and 57.2% in 2025. The bulk of the improvements in operating expenses is coming from lower SG&amp;A and R&amp;D expenses as a percentage of revenues in the next five years.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c019cc86f4d4c1d9ffe15d3b4a4bfa75\" tg-width=\"772\" tg-height=\"480\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ef629be32d2c34d625cb287ad648206d\" tg-width=\"757\" tg-height=\"488\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b9561a02993fbc88c2cad88e68c08730\" tg-width=\"920\" tg-height=\"485\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>Company Background</b></p><p>At the end of 2020, Zhihu had more than 43.1 million cumulative content creators that contributed 315 million questions and answers. In 4Q 2020, the company had 75.7 million average monthly active users, up 33% YoY. One of the key strengths of the company is that it is recognized as one of the most trustworthy online content communities and regarded as providing one of the highest quality content in China. Zhihu has tried to capitalize on its large user base to provide numerous multimedia functions including live streaming, e-commerce, online education, and other video content.</p><p>In August 2019, Zhihu received $434 million in funding from leading investors including Baidu and Kuaishou Technology, valuing the company at $3.5 billion. Given that the company had $97 million in sales in 2019, this would suggest a P/S valuation multiple of 36x. If we take the same P/S multiple apply to the company's 2020 sales of $207 million, this would suggest an implied valuation of $7.5 billion.</p><p>Zhihu was originally developed as a question and answer online community in 2010. At the end of 2020, there were a total of 315 million Q&amp;As spanning more than 1,000 verticals and 571,000 topics.

Advertising accounted for 86.1% and 62.4% of total revenues in 2019 and 2020, respectively. The company's advertising revenue is mainly driven by its MAUs and advertising revenue per MAU. The company's MAUs increased by 42.7% YoY to 68.5 million in 2020. The company started its online advertising business in 2016 and introduced paid content in 2018.</p><p>Paid memberships represented 13.1% of total revenues in 2019, which increased to 23.7% of total revenues in 2020. Average monthly members jumped by 311.5% YoY to 2.36 million in 2020, which is a testament of an increasing number of customers that value the premium content available on Zhihu.</p><p>In March 2019, the company introduced the Yan Selection membership program, making it the first payment-based questions &amp; answers community. It provides its members with unlimited access to about 3.4 million paid content including online lectures, columns, audio books, and e-journals.

According to CIC Consultancy, China's content-commerce solution market is expected to enjoy a strong CAGR growth of 46.4% from 2019 to 2025 (112.3 billion RMB).</p><p><b>Market Opportunities</b></p><p><b>China’s Online Content Communities Market Size</b></p><p>Online content communities refer to UGC (user generated content)-focused (including PUGC (professional user generated content) focused online content market players where content creators are also users, who are actively engaged within the communities.

Though EVs may be the future, they’re still awfully expensive. As well, lack of infrastructure is a major challenge. Therefore, my general bullishness in&nbsp;<b>Churchill Capital</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CCIV</u></b>) seems contradictory. Wouldn’t CCIV stock succumb to the difficulties?</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/521b487b052e6677651c06981adc8993\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: gg5795 / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>Adding the most skepticism is that Lucid Motors is about as aspirational of a company as you can get. Technically, the term is pre-revenue, which is just euphemism for aspirational, which is also euphemism for extremely speculative. But that’s not going to appeal to investors of the special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) which Lucid will reverse merger with. So pre-revenue it is for CCIV stock.</p>\n<p>Markets analyst Joanna Makris pointed out the other glaring problem with the EV hopeful and that’s valuation. Simply put, you can make the argument that the premium for CCIV stock is completely out of touch with reality. She wrote:</p>\n<blockquote>\n While Lucid’s valuation falls short of the previous $42 billion estimate, it’s still aggressive by any measure. As a comparison, at an implied $38 billion,&nbsp;Lucid would trade at the&nbsp;same market capitalization&nbsp;as&nbsp;\n <b>Tesla</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:\n <b>TSLA</b>) in early 2017.But there’s another wrench in Lucid’s numbers, so to speak. Lucid’s final valuation will depend on what portion of Lucid’s PIPE investors cash in on redemptions. The PIPE priced at $15 — a roughly 60% discount to CCIV’s current $24 share price.&nbsp;With the lockup expiring in September, there’s a high likelihood that these short-term insiders take their profits. And that’s&nbsp;another reason for downside in CCIV stock.\n</blockquote>\n<p>With so many challenges in Lucid’s pipeline, is playing this reverse merger worth a shot?</p>\n<p><b>CCIV Stock Is Strangely the EV Investment You Can Trust</b></p>\n<p>I’ll expand on an issue that I only briefly mentioned above and that’s infrastructure. If the U.S. were to make a pivot to EVs, infrastructure to around the level that you see gasoline stations today for combustion cars is a must. For various reasons, we can’t all just charge at home.</p>\n<p>But to loosely paraphrase Dr. Emmett Brown, “Infrastructure? Where we’re going, we don’t need infrastructure.”</p>\n<p>While so many EV companies — and legacy automakers pivoting toward EVs — have their eyes on building vehicles for the average household, Lucid is going completely the opposite direction. Specifically focused on premium luxury EVs, the company’s cheapest offering start at just under $70,000. For context, themedian U.S. household income was $68,703 in 2019.</p>\n<p>Logically, the folks that are even considering buying Lucid EVs already have access to ample charging infrastructure: their own. Yes, I understand that someone making $70,000 could conceivably go out and buy one. But most people don’t spend 100% of their pre-tax income on a car. That would be nuts.</p>\n<p>Plus, you’ve got to figure that Lucid’s target audience would already have another vehicle at the ready, whether electric or not. Sure, multiple variables exist with CCIV stock. But infrastructure concerns will not be one of them.</p>\n<p>However, you can’t say that if you’re aiming for the lower end of the price spectrum. Here, infrastructure very much matters because not everybody has access to a garage or carport to do their charging. And in some locales, money isn’t necessarily the central issue.</p>\n<p>For instance, the<i>Wall Street Journal</i>noted thatNew Yorkers bought personal vehicles for the first timeduring last year’s novel coronavirus outbreak. Usually, that’s a superfluous purchase in that area due to the abundance of public transport options and that owning a car is a pain. So if people from these areas continue to go electric, infrastructure is a necessity.</p>\n<p><b>Speculative But Rational</b></p>\n<p>Having said all that, I don’t outright disagree with Makris. The valuation on CCIV stock is incredibly rich. I don’t think anybody will deny that. But really, the question is whether or not it’s justified.</p>\n<p>Obviously, no one but yourself can answer that. What I will suggest is that CCIV stock is a speculative albeit rational investment. Yes, it’s priced high but the business model is the one that makes the most sense. Currently, we don’t have solid-state battery technology to make fully functional EVs that are priced like a base model Civic or Camry.</p>\n<p>With Lucid, that question is not part of the equation whatsoever.

Though EVs may be the future, they’re still awfully expensive. As well, lack of infrastructure is a major challenge. Therefore, my general bullishness in Churchill Capital(NYSE:CCIV) seems contradictory. Wouldn’t CCIV stock succumb to the difficulties?\nSource: gg5795 / Shutterstock.com\nAdding the most skepticism is that Lucid Motors is about as aspirational of a company as you can get. Technically, the term is pre-revenue, which is just euphemism for aspirational, which is also euphemism for extremely speculative. But that’s not going to appeal to investors of the special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) which Lucid will reverse merger with. So pre-revenue it is for CCIV stock.\nMarkets analyst Joanna Makris pointed out the other glaring problem with the EV hopeful and that’s valuation. Simply put, you can make the argument that the premium for CCIV stock is completely out of touch with reality. She wrote:\n\n While Lucid’s valuation falls short of the previous $42 billion estimate, it’s still aggressive by any measure. As a comparison, at an implied $38 billion, Lucid would trade at the same market capitalization as \n Tesla (NASDAQ:\n TSLA) in early 2017.But there’s another wrench in Lucid’s numbers, so to speak. Lucid’s final valuation will depend on what portion of Lucid’s PIPE investors cash in on redemptions. The PIPE priced at $15 — a roughly 60% discount to CCIV’s current $24 share price. With the lockup expiring in September, there’s a high likelihood that these short-term insiders take their profits. And that’s another reason for downside in CCIV stock.\n\nWith so many challenges in Lucid’s pipeline, is playing this reverse merger worth a shot?\nCCIV Stock Is Strangely the EV Investment You Can Trust\nI’ll expand on an issue that I only briefly mentioned above and that’s infrastructure. If the U.S. were to make a pivot to EVs, infrastructure to around the level that you see gasoline stations today for combustion cars is a must. For various reasons, we can’t all just charge at home.\nBut to loosely paraphrase Dr. Emmett Brown, “Infrastructure? Where we’re going, we don’t need infrastructure.”\nWhile so many EV companies — and legacy automakers pivoting toward EVs — have their eyes on building vehicles for the average household, Lucid is going completely the opposite direction. Specifically focused on premium luxury EVs, the company’s cheapest offering start at just under $70,000. For context, themedian U.S. household income was $68,703 in 2019.\nLogically, the folks that are even considering buying Lucid EVs already have access to ample charging infrastructure: their own. Yes, I understand that someone making $70,000 could conceivably go out and buy one. But most people don’t spend 100% of their pre-tax income on a car. That would be nuts.\nPlus, you’ve got to figure that Lucid’s target audience would already have another vehicle at the ready, whether electric or not. Sure, multiple variables exist with CCIV stock. But infrastructure concerns will not be one of them.\nHowever, you can’t say that if you’re aiming for the lower end of the price spectrum. Here, infrastructure very much matters because not everybody has access to a garage or carport to do their charging. And in some locales, money isn’t necessarily the central issue.\nFor instance, theWall Street Journalnoted thatNew Yorkers bought personal vehicles for the first timeduring last year’s novel coronavirus outbreak. Usually, that’s a superfluous purchase in that area due to the abundance of public transport options and that owning a car is a pain. So if people from these areas continue to go electric, infrastructure is a necessity.\nSpeculative But Rational\nHaving said all that, I don’t outright disagree with Makris. The valuation on CCIV stock is incredibly rich. I don’t think anybody will deny that. But really, the question is whether or not it’s justified.\nObviously, no one but yourself can answer that. What I will suggest is that CCIV stock is a speculative albeit rational investment. Yes, it’s priced high but the business model is the one that makes the most sense. Currently, we don’t have solid-state battery technology to make fully functional EVs that are priced like a base model Civic or Camry.\nWith Lucid, that question is not part of the equation whatsoever. Do you see Ferrari(NYSE:RACE) sweating bullets about who can afford the cars? Heck no! In fact, you have toearn the brand’s respectbefore you can be on the waiting list.\nLucid isn’t in that same ballpark but it’s a similar idea. By focusing on a specific, high-end market, it takes away the variability that you would incur if you had to rely on mass consumer sentiment.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"CCIV":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1224,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121060731,"gmtCreate":1624444898523,"gmtModify":1631883705314,"author":{"id":"3579351675564800","authorId":"3579351675564800","name":"Wookaka","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d13f2b4ff94c3f0d585387fba72a9aa7","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579351675564800","authorIdStr":"3579351675564800"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"&nbsp;&nbsp;really&nbsp;","listText":"&nbsp;&nbsp;really&nbsp;","text":"really","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/121060731","repostId":"1145825451","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1145825451","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624433586,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1145825451?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-23 15:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why I Believe NIO Will Beat Out Tesla","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1145825451","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.Super fans of the latest and greatest high-endTesla, Inc. model received some disappointing news a week ago when CEO Elon Musk abruptly canceled the release of its highly anticipated Model S Plaid Plus with a tweet on June 6.Instead, the company has begun delivering a new Model S Plaid that has only a 390-mile range and 1,020 horsepower, though it still sprints to from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just two seconds.The go","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Super fans of the latest and greatest high-end<b>Tesla, Inc.</b>(NASDAQ:<b>TSLA</b>) model received some disappointing news a week ago when CEO Elon Musk abruptly canceled the release of its highly anticipated Model S Plaid Plus with a tweet on June 6.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b294a3604c7ba82bd19b3c70be3a4020\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: nrqemi / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>Musk wrote there was… “No need, as Plaid is just so good.”</p>\n<p>The Model S Plaid Plus was supposed to be the fastest, most powerful and priciest version of the company’s Model S.

First, NIO revealed that the global chip shortage is starting to take a toll on its business. NIO only delivered 6,711 vehicles in May, or a 5.5% decline from April’s deliveries. Company management noted that deliveries were “adversely impacted for several days due to the volatility of semiconductor supply and certain logistical adjustments.”\nInterestingly, despite the month-to-month dip, NIO’s deliveries were still up 95.3% year-over-year. Strong demand in China even inspired a Citigroup analyst to upgrade NIO to a buy rating, as he expects demand to accelerate in the coming months.\nIn other words, NIO represents thecrème de la crèmeof EV stocks right now.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"NIO":0.9,"TSLA":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1078,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":137567062,"gmtCreate":1622364682056,"gmtModify":1631883705350,"author":{"id":"3579351675564800","authorId":"3579351675564800","name":"Wookaka","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d13f2b4ff94c3f0d585387fba72a9aa7","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579351675564800","authorIdStr":"3579351675564800"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment","listText":"Comment","text":"Comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/137567062","repostId":"2138948877","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1466,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":353228269,"gmtCreate":1616503170651,"gmtModify":1634525500006,"author":{"id":"3579351675564800","authorId":"3579351675564800","name":"Wookaka","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d13f2b4ff94c3f0d585387fba72a9aa7","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579351675564800","authorIdStr":"3579351675564800"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/353228269","repostId":"2121084489","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":130,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121069557,"gmtCreate":1624444962979,"gmtModify":1631883705300,"author":{"id":"3579351675564800","authorId":"3579351675564800","name":"Wookaka","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d13f2b4ff94c3f0d585387fba72a9aa7","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579351675564800","authorIdStr":"3579351675564800"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Trm","listText":"Trm","text":"Trm","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/121069557","repostId":"2145096879","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2145096879","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624441800,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2145096879?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-23 17:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"GameStop gives investors 1.6 billion reasons to care about the meme trade: Morning Brief","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2145096879","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"This article first appeared in the Morning Brief.
