Instead, it's only been five years since Berkshire began to build its stake in Apple.\nThe conglomerate first purchased Apple shares in 2016 and continued buying them until mid-2018, when the position topped 1 billion shares after adjusting for a 4-for-1 stock split in 2020. Buffett has trimmed Berkshire's position in Apple by about 12% since initially building the stake.\nBarring any changes since the most recent 13F filing, Berkshire's stock portfolio would be up 13.9% quarter-to-date, according to an analysis by Bespoke.Much of that gain has been driven by Apple's quarter-to-date gain of more than 20%.\nYear-to-date, Apple is up 31%, compared to Berkshire Hathaway's return of 26%. Apple's stock price was less than $1.00 away from hitting a $3 trillion valuation on Monday.\nBerkshire's three largest positions after Apple are Bank of America,American Express, and Coca-Cola, which make up a combined 30% of the equity portfolio's value. And Berkshire is still sitting on about $150 billion in cash that it has yet to put to work.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"BRK.A":0.9,"BRK.B":0.9,"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4411,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":849010018,"gmtCreate":1635700214022,"gmtModify":1635700214022,"author":{"id":"4091144744160280","authorId":"4091144744160280","name":"Marso12","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/de5cc567bde6b03e14adcc62d004f8d3","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4091144744160280","authorIdStr":"4091144744160280"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"Jd","listText":"Jd","text":"Jd","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/849010018","repostId":"2179226336","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3133,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":859999024,"gmtCreate":1634647840672,"gmtModify":1634648186661,"author":{"id":"4091144744160280","authorId":"4091144744160280","name":"Marso12","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/de5cc567bde6b03e14adcc62d004f8d3","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4091144744160280","authorIdStr":"4091144744160280"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"Ooops, &nbsp;wrong aps🤭😆✌🏾","listText":"Ooops, &nbsp;wrong aps🤭😆✌🏾","text":"Ooops, wrong aps🤭😆✌🏾","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c0f26c33492590228b3f3bd67fe3a408","width":"3024","height":"4032"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/859999024","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2806,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":823939096,"gmtCreate":1633570164323,"gmtModify":1633570164463,"author":{"id":"4091144744160280","authorId":"4091144744160280","name":"Marso12","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/de5cc567bde6b03e14adcc62d004f8d3","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4091144744160280","authorIdStr":"4091144744160280"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"👍🏾","listText":"👍🏾","text":"👍🏾","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/823939096","repostId":"1155573486","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1155573486","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1633569833,"share":"https://www.laohunote.com/m/news/1155573486?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-10-07 09:23","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Earnings Are Coming.

Among other topics, investors are on the hunt for info on how iPhone 13 sales are going so far, how the company is handling the ongoing component crunch and whether Apple can continue to produce robust growth in its services business.</p><p><blockquote>距离苹果 9 月份季度财报发布仅剩三周时间，华尔街正在努力寻找有关这些数字的线索。除其他话题外，投资者正在寻找有关 iPhone 13 迄今为止的销售情况、该公司如何应对持续的零部件紧缩以及苹果是否能够继续在其服务业务中实现强劲增长的信息。</blockquote></p><p> As it happens, Apple (ticker: AAPL) analysts have cranked out notes on all three topics.</p><p><blockquote>碰巧的是，苹果（股票代码：AAPL）分析师已经就这三个主题撰写了报告。</blockquote></p><p> J.P. Morgan analyst Samik Chatterjee offered some thoughts on supply chain issues. He writes in a research note that the Street’s focus in recent weeks has been on iPhone 13 supply constraints, citing both disruptions related to a resurgence of Covid-19 cases and the impact on industrial production in China from a shortage of electric power.</p><p><blockquote>摩根大通分析师 Samik Chatterjee 就供应链问题提出了一些想法。他在一份研究报告中写道，最近几周华尔街的焦点一直集中在 iPhone 13 的供应限制上，并列举了与 Covid-19 病例死灰复燃有关的中断以及电力短缺对中国工业生产的影响。</blockquote></p><p> Chatterjee reports that initial iPhone 13 production was delayed by manufacturing related issues with the phone’s camera module, an issue he says implies Apple had more limited inventory heading into the launch compared with past years. And he says the camera module continues to be a primary bottleneck in producing the phones, due largely to headwinds from a Covid outbreak in Vietnam, where the parts are sourced.</p><p><blockquote>查特吉报告说，由于手机摄像头模块的制造相关问题，iPhone 13 的初始生产被推迟，他说这个问题意味着与往年相比，苹果在发布前的库存更加有限。他还表示，摄像头模块仍然是手机生产的主要瓶颈，这主要是由于零部件来源地越南新冠疫情爆发带来的不利因素。</blockquote></p><p> On the China power issue, he says most large assembly companies have seen limited impact from the problem, but that it could affect some smaller component companies. Both issues, he says, bear watching.</p><p><blockquote>关于中国电力问题，他表示，大多数大型组装公司受到的影响有限，但它可能会影响一些较小的零部件公司。他说，这两个问题都值得关注。</blockquote></p><p> Meanwhile,Morgan Stanley‘s Katy Huberty provides an update on the App Store. She writes in a research note that data from the research firm Sensor Tower suggests that App Store revenue in September grew16.1% from a year ago, the best level in five months, and ahead of her forecast for 12% growth.</p><p><blockquote>与此同时，摩根士丹利的凯蒂·休伯蒂在应用商店上提供了更新。她在一份研究报告中写道，研究公司 Sensor Tower 的数据显示，9 月份 App Store 收入同比增长 16.1%，为五个月来的最佳水平，高于她预测的 12% 增长。</blockquote></p><p> Huberty writes that both App Store revenue specifically and services revenue overall now appear to be running ahead of her forecast model. And she notes that her services estimates for the quarter were already above Street consensus levels. Huberty points out that China gaming revenue accelerated in September despite recent curbs on game play by children under age 18.</p><p><blockquote>休伯蒂写道，无论是应用商店的收入还是整体服务收入，现在似乎都领先于她的预测模型。她指出，她对本季度的服务估计已经高于华尔街共识水平。休伯蒂指出，尽管最近对18岁以下儿童玩游戏实施了限制，但中国游戏收入在9月份加速增长。</blockquote></p><p> Evercore ISI analyst Amit Daryanani observes that lead times for the iPhone 13 remain elevated in most countries, with lead times stretching out for most models.

A figure under 10% is generally considered a 'low float' stock which can be subject to significant price volatility.\nPer the firm's most recent regulatory filing, it plans to use the net proceeds as follows:\n\n We expect to use the net proceeds of this offering to repay in full the outstanding borrowings of approximately $114.2 million under our Credit Facilities.

Instead, it's only been five years since Berkshire began to build its stake in Apple.\nThe conglomerate first purchased Apple shares in 2016 and continued buying them until mid-2018, when the position topped 1 billion shares after adjusting for a 4-for-1 stock split in 2020. Buffett has trimmed Berkshire's position in Apple by about 12% since initially building the stake.\nBarring any changes since the most recent 13F filing, Berkshire's stock portfolio would be up 13.9% quarter-to-date, according to an analysis by Bespoke.Much of that gain has been driven by Apple's quarter-to-date gain of more than 20%.\nYear-to-date, Apple is up 31%, compared to Berkshire Hathaway's return of 26%. Apple's stock price was less than $1.00 away from hitting a $3 trillion valuation on Monday.\nBerkshire's three largest positions after Apple are Bank of America,American Express, and Coca-Cola, which make up a combined 30% of the equity portfolio's value. And Berkshire is still sitting on about $150 billion in cash that it has yet to put to work.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"BRK.A":0.9,"BRK.B":0.9,"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4411,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":849010018,"gmtCreate":1635700214022,"gmtModify":1635700214022,"author":{"id":"4091144744160280","authorId":"4091144744160280","name":"Marso12","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/de5cc567bde6b03e14adcc62d004f8d3","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4091144744160280","authorIdStr":"4091144744160280"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"Jd","listText":"Jd","text":"Jd","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/849010018","repostId":"2179226336","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3133,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":863417123,"gmtCreate":1632411780062,"gmtModify":1632729994236,"author":{"id":"4091144744160280","authorId":"4091144744160280","name":"Marso12","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/de5cc567bde6b03e14adcc62d004f8d3","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4091144744160280","authorIdStr":"4091144744160280"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/863417123","repostId":"1159478468","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1159478468","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1632411695,"share":"https://www.laohunote.com/m/news/1159478468?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-23 23:41","market":"other","language":"en","title":"EngageSmart opens for trading at $37, up about 43.6% from IPO price<blockquote>EngageSmart 开盘价为 37 美元，较 IPO 价格上涨约 43.6%</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1159478468","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"(Sept 23) EngageSmart Inc. opens for trading at $37, up about 43.6% from IPO price.\n\nCompany\nBraintr","content":"<p>(Sept 23)&nbsp;<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ESMT\">EngageSmart Inc.</a> opens for trading at $37, up about 43.6% from IPO price.</p><p><blockquote>（9月23日）<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ESMT\">EngageSmart公司。</a>开盘价为 37 美元，较 IPO 价格上涨约 43.6%。</blockquote></p><p> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/835bc9b4ff09e761852f27f75743b887\" tg-width=\"898\" tg-height=\"550\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><blockquote></blockquote></p><p> <b>Company</b></p><p><blockquote><b>公司</b></blockquote></p><p> Braintree, Massachusetts-based EngageSmart was founded to develop a platform that improves customer engagement tailored for certain industry verticals.</p><p><blockquote>EngageSmart总部位于马萨诸塞州布伦特里，旨在开发一个平台，为某些垂直行业量身定制，提高客户参与度。</blockquote></p><p> Management is headed by founder and CEO Robert P.

A figure under 10% is generally considered a 'low float' stock which can be subject to significant price volatility.\nPer the firm's most recent regulatory filing, it plans to use the net proceeds as follows:\n\n We expect to use the net proceeds of this offering to repay in full the outstanding borrowings of approximately $114.2 million under our Credit Facilities.

Among other topics, investors are on the hunt for info on how iPhone 13 sales are going so far, how the company is handling the ongoing component crunch and whether Apple can continue to produce robust growth in its services business.</p><p><blockquote>距离苹果 9 月份季度财报发布仅剩三周时间，华尔街正在努力寻找有关这些数字的线索。除其他话题外，投资者正在寻找有关 iPhone 13 迄今为止的销售情况、该公司如何应对持续的零部件紧缩以及苹果是否能够继续在其服务业务中实现强劲增长的信息。</blockquote></p><p> As it happens, Apple (ticker: AAPL) analysts have cranked out notes on all three topics.</p><p><blockquote>碰巧的是，苹果（股票代码：AAPL）分析师已经就这三个主题撰写了报告。</blockquote></p><p> J.P. Morgan analyst Samik Chatterjee offered some thoughts on supply chain issues. He writes in a research note that the Street’s focus in recent weeks has been on iPhone 13 supply constraints, citing both disruptions related to a resurgence of Covid-19 cases and the impact on industrial production in China from a shortage of electric power.</p><p><blockquote>摩根大通分析师 Samik Chatterjee 就供应链问题提出了一些想法。他在一份研究报告中写道，最近几周华尔街的焦点一直集中在 iPhone 13 的供应限制上，并列举了与 Covid-19 病例死灰复燃有关的中断以及电力短缺对中国工业生产的影响。</blockquote></p><p> Chatterjee reports that initial iPhone 13 production was delayed by manufacturing related issues with the phone’s camera module, an issue he says implies Apple had more limited inventory heading into the launch compared with past years. And he says the camera module continues to be a primary bottleneck in producing the phones, due largely to headwinds from a Covid outbreak in Vietnam, where the parts are sourced.</p><p><blockquote>查特吉报告说，由于手机摄像头模块的制造相关问题，iPhone 13 的初始生产被推迟，他说这个问题意味着与往年相比，苹果在发布前的库存更加有限。他还表示，摄像头模块仍然是手机生产的主要瓶颈，这主要是由于零部件来源地越南新冠疫情爆发带来的不利因素。</blockquote></p><p> On the China power issue, he says most large assembly companies have seen limited impact from the problem, but that it could affect some smaller component companies. Both issues, he says, bear watching.</p><p><blockquote>关于中国电力问题，他表示，大多数大型组装公司受到的影响有限，但它可能会影响一些较小的零部件公司。他说，这两个问题都值得关注。</blockquote></p><p> Meanwhile,Morgan Stanley‘s Katy Huberty provides an update on the App Store.

And she notes that her services estimates for the quarter were already above Street consensus levels. Huberty points out that China gaming revenue accelerated in September despite recent curbs on game play by children under age 18.</p><p><blockquote>休伯蒂写道，无论是应用商店的收入还是整体服务收入，现在似乎都领先于她的预测模型。她指出，她对本季度的服务估计已经高于华尔街共识水平。休伯蒂指出，尽管最近对18岁以下儿童玩游戏实施了限制，但中国游戏收入在9月份加速增长。</blockquote></p><p> Evercore ISI analyst Amit Daryanani observes that lead times for the iPhone 13 remain elevated in most countries, with lead times stretching out for most models.
