The company focuses on enabling monetization opportunities through competition. In contrast to other gaming platforms that monetize through in-app purchases [IAP] or in-app advertising [IAA]. The company believes that the business model of such platforms is \"broken.\" Furthermore, the company believes that the future of gaming is moving towards eSports. Hence, Skillz Inc. is on a mission to \"democratize gaming&nbsp;by leveling the playing field for access [to developers] to build esports.\"</p>\n<p>However,in our previous article, we explained that IAP and IAA are unlikely to be irrelevant anytime soon. Major game publishers continue to rely on these proven monetization models. We also showed that the majority of gamers are supportive of such models. Moreover, eSports is also not unique to SKLZ. Major game developers such as Garena(NYSE:SE)have also been leveraging on eSports. eSports allow game developers to build a highly engaged community of gamers.</p>\n<p>We continue to remain shareholders of SKLZ stock.

Data source: Company filings</span></p>\n<p>Skillz operates with an \"asset-light,\" low direct costs business model. It doesn't need to hire and retain expensively assembled developer teams. Instead, it's a platform for developers to build their games for monetization on Skillz's competition platform. Therefore, Skillz takes a commission from its net gross marketplace volume (GMV). The commission is defined as its take rate.</p>\n<p>Skillz has maintained a consistent take rate over time. The company posted a take rate of 14.7% in FQ2'21. However, Skillz also highlighted that it could increase its take rate in the future to boost monetization. Such opportunities could arise if it could attract more paying users to its platform.</p>\n<p>The company's gross profit is then derived from its take rate. So under its \"asset-light\" platform, it's not surprising that it has been reporting solid gross margins. The company has consistently reported gross margins of around 95%.</p>\n<p>However, the main \"eyesore\" is its SG&amp;A margins. Its very high SG&amp;A margins are the main reason for its negative EBIT margins. Skillz CEO Andrew Paradise recently discussed the purpose of the company's aggressiveness in its SG&amp;A spending. He emphasized:</p>\n<blockquote>\n Part of that is, as a reminder, our gross margin is 95% as a business. So we can be profitable today if we want to slow down our penetration of the massive market ahead of us. But when you think about our business, just like kind of thinking about Q2 of this year, our adjusted EBITDA margin before user acquisition was actually 17%.\n <i>We just -- we believe that capturing the now $2.8 billion gamer opportunity in front of us by investing in growth with this discipline of understanding these paybacks, carefully monitoring cohort performance.</i>(from Citi 2021 Global Technology Virtual Conference)\n</blockquote>\n<p>Therefore, Paradise believes that SKLZ still has a massive opportunity to capture the growth in mobile gaming. Coupled with its eSports appeal, the company is definitely operating in a fast-growing market.</p>\n<p>The important question facing investors is whether its aggressiveness makes sense. SG&amp;A margins above 140% are very costly to sustain. Importantly, SKLZ has a relatively healthy cash hoard of $693M, with no debt. Hence, the company is in a good financial position to conduct its aggressive user acquisition (UA) strategy.</p>\n<p>Moreover, the Aarki acquisition is also expected to help Skillz optimize its UA costs. The company highlighted that it expects to migrate about $200M in UA spending to Aarki this year. It's a sizeable amount as the company expended about $250M in SG&amp;A expenses in H1'21. The migrated spending would allow Aarki to optimize about $40M to $60M in UA costs. However, Skillz has also telegraphed that cost optimization would take time. The optimization process might take up to 24 months to complete. Therefore, the operational efficiencies from the migration to Aarki would take some time to show up.</p>\n<p><b>But, Monthly Active Users are Falling</b></p>\n<p>The company reported monthly active users (MAU) of 2.4M in FQ2'21. It followed a recent declining trend. In FQ1'21, the MAU was 2.7M. Hence, there was a marked 11.1% quarter-over-quarter ((QoQ)) drop. Moreover, YoY figures hardly changed. The company reported MAU of 2.6M in FQ1'20. It also reported MAU of 2.5M in Q2'20. Therefore, readers can easily glean that Skillz has difficulty attracting more MAU to its platform. As a result, the company might need to continue spending aggressively to maintain its MAU.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2a05cb47d9038c2fb7d912874c03a442\" tg-width=\"610\" tg-height=\"482\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Skillz Paying MAU. Source: Skillz</span></p>\n<p>Of course, the focus of the company has always been on its Paying MAU. Paying MAU accounted for 19.3% of its total MAU base in FQ2'21. It was an improvement over FQ1'21's 17.3%. It shows that the company has been able to improve its user monetization ratio. It's also a significant improvement over FQ2'20's 12% ratio. From this perspective, it shows that the company's aggressive UA efforts seem to be making progress. Notwithstanding, we think it's still necessary for Skillz to address its declining trend of MAU. The company could certainly address the short-term gaps with improved monetization metrics. At the moment, we don't see anything amiss. But, it would likely get increasingly harder to monetize a falling MAU base.</p>\n<p><b>Would Venturing into Synchronous Gaming Be The Solution?</b></p>\n<p>Skillz upped the ante by investing in Exit Games to accelerate its synchronous gaming ambitions. The most prominent genre is battle royale games. Such games include Fortnite, Garena Free Fire (SE), and PUBG Mobile(OTCPK:TCEHY). These are the most dominant mobile games in the battle royale genre today.SensorTower's Q3'21 revenue data&nbsp;shows PUBG Mobile and Garena Free Fire are the #1 and #8 games worldwide. However, it's important to note that game development has a long lead time.</p>\n<p>Worldwide gaming leader Tencent clearly emphasized the challenge in developing \"original IPs.\" Tencent emphasized:</p>\n<blockquote>\n Just one point to add, right. On the gaming side, I think you emphasized [the] point [of] new creation of IPs and true,\n <i>is many years before you can see final product.</i>I think if you look at our recent pipeline of games, which we have announced of more than 40 of them, I think it's a combination, right?\n <i>Some are original IPs, which would take a very long time to develop.</i>Some are actually existing IPs that we're going to take existing assets, a pretty proven game play, and we will add our innovation for mobile, and then we developed it for launch. (from Tencent FQ1'21 earnings call)\n</blockquote>\n<p>It explains why game developers \"milk\" their top titles for a significant amount of time. Hence, we are not so sure how competitive would SKLZ's new gaming titles be? Top battle royale developers derive huge profits from their top titles. They also have no problems attracting new users.

We address in this article whether the stock is worth adding for investors now.\n\ncokada/E+ via Getty Images\nInvestment Thesis\nSkillz(NYSE:SKLZ)is a mobile gaming technology platform. The company focuses on enabling monetization opportunities through competition. In contrast to other gaming platforms that monetize through in-app purchases [IAP] or in-app advertising [IAA]. The company believes that the business model of such platforms is \"broken.\" Furthermore, the company believes that the future of gaming is moving towards eSports. Hence, Skillz Inc. is on a mission to \"democratize gaming by leveling the playing field for access [to developers] to build esports.\"\nHowever,in our previous article, we explained that IAP and IAA are unlikely to be irrelevant anytime soon. Major game publishers continue to rely on these proven monetization models. We also showed that the majority of gamers are supportive of such models. Moreover, eSports is also not unique to SKLZ. Major game developers such as Garena(NYSE:SE)have also been leveraging on eSports. eSports allow game developers to build a highly engaged community of gamers.\nWe continue to remain shareholders of SKLZ stock. However, the stock is down more than 20% from our initial buy price. In addition, we highlighted before that it's a speculative stock for our portfolio. Hence, the exposure is much smaller than our core holdings. Nevertheless, we have no qualms in continuing to hold it for the longer term.\nWe will present our thesis on whether the stock's current weakness represents an opportunity for investors to add exposure.\nSKLZ Stock YTD Performance\nSKLZ Stock YTD performance (as of 5 Oct 21).\nGaming stocks had a terrible year so far. SKLZ stock's YTD performance was the worst here. The stock returned -61.8% YTD. It had started so brightly as it raced close to a 100% YTD lead in February. Unfortunately, that momentum has turned bearish and wiped out all its gains within a month. Except for SE, gaming stocks have significantly underperformed the SPDR S&P 500 ETF(NYSEARCA:SPY)in 2021.\nSkillz is Investing Aggressively for Growth\nSkillz gross margins and SG&A margins. Data source: S&P Capital IQ\nSkillz take rate. Data source: Company filings\nSkillz operates with an \"asset-light,\" low direct costs business model. It doesn't need to hire and retain expensively assembled developer teams. Instead, it's a platform for developers to build their games for monetization on Skillz's competition platform. Therefore, Skillz takes a commission from its net gross marketplace volume (GMV). The commission is defined as its take rate.\nSkillz has maintained a consistent take rate over time. The company posted a take rate of 14.7% in FQ2'21. However, Skillz also highlighted that it could increase its take rate in the future to boost monetization.

That’s one takeaway from the news this week that SunPower—which once wanted to be the vertically integrated “everything store” for solar—has narrowed its focus to selling and leasing solar power systems to the residential market.</p>\n<p>SunPower (ticker: SPWR) said Tuesday that it is considering “strategic options” for its business selling panels to commercial and industrial customers, which could mean a sale. In 2019, the company spun out its solar manufacturing business into a new company called&nbsp;Maxeon Solar Technologies&nbsp;(MAXN). And SunPower has been selling its stake in&nbsp;Enphase&nbsp;Energy (ENPH), an equipment-maker that’s another key cog in the solar ecosystem.</p>\n<p>SunPower is doubling down on residential solar, predicting that it can help lift the number of U.S. homes with solar to 100 million from about 3 million. On Tuesday, the company said it was buying privately held Blue Raven Solar, a solar provider focused on residential homes, for up to $165 million.</p>\n<p>Solar is one of the most promising industries in the U. S.—installations in the U.S. have been rising at an average rate of 42% a year for the past decade—but it’s not easy for investors to navigate. And it doesn’t trade like other insurgent high-tech industries with similar growth rates.</p>\n<p>Most of the panels are made overseas by companies that can carry political baggage and have historically been extremely volatile investments. In the U.S., most of the largest companies are solar developers like&nbsp;Sunrun&nbsp;(RUN) that post losses based on traditional accounting metrics because they lease power over extended periods. The companies that are most likely to add the greatest volume of solar in the decades ahead are utilities, whose fortunes often depend on interest rates or the decisions of regulators. Buying their stocks only gives investors ancillary benefits of solar.</p>\n<p>One reason that the industry is so fragmented is that its various niches involve very different kinds of expertise and government support. China’s financial support of solar manufacturers has made it harder for companies in other countries to catch up. And reaching residential solar customers is very different than selling panels to utilities or commercial buyers. Solar may be a global industry, but the companies involved are increasingly specialists sensitive to local rules and dynamics.</p>\n<p>Of the various niches within solar, SunPower clearly sees the most opportunity in residential sales. The company gets its best margins from residential, and sees the potential for the market to grow from about 3 million homes to 100 million in the U.S. Plus, it seems clear investors want the company to focus more on that niche.</p>\n<p>“For SunPower, we believe that a concentrated focus on the residential business will align us more squarely with our current investor base that will appreciate the increased clarity of strategy,” said CEO Peter Faricy on an analyst call after the Blue Raven announcement.</p>\n<p>SunPower stock fell on Tuesday and was down again on Wednesday, but its move won some support from analysts.</p>\n<p>“We agree with the company’s tightening of its focus and look forward to additional strategic strokes to strengthen the company’s direction,” wrote Baird analyst Ben Kallo, who rates the stock at Outperform with a $34 price target.</p>\n<p>The move offers investors another pure-play bet on rooftop solar, along with Sunrun and&nbsp;Sunnova&nbsp;Energy International (NOVA).

These include:\n- Election of two Class II directors to serve for a term of three years\n- amendments to certificate of incorporation to reduce director terms to two years\n- amendments to certificate of incorporation and bylaws to eliminate applicable supermajority voting requirements\n- ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as Tesla's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 2021\nA supermajority voting provision requires certain categories of bylaws to be approved by the affirmative vote of at least 66%, or two-thirds of the total voting power of all outstanding shares of Tesla common stock. The company is proposing to eliminate this.\nTesla has also put up for re-election board members James Murdoch,son of medial mogul Rupert Murdoch,and Kimbal Musk,the brother of CEO Elon Musk.\nProxy advisory firm Institutional Shareholder Services has recommended rejecting the two directors, citing its view that they have been excessively compensated.\nThe Shareholder Proposals:Shareholders have put forward five proposals, including the reduction of a director's term to one year, additional reporting on diversity and inclusion efforts, reporting on employee arbitration, assigning responsibility for strategic oversight of human capital management to an independent board-level committee and additional reporting on human rights.\nTesla has accepted only the first proposal for discussion and rejected the other four,which pertain primarily to diversity and inclusion. The company's rejection assumes importance because of the $137 million in damages a jury ordered Tesla to pay for alleged racism in workplace.\n\"The virtual meeting will feature live audio webcasts, plus the option for stockholders to submit votes and written comments and questions on meeting agenda items,\" Tesla said in definitive proxy statement filed in late September.\nInvestor Questions That Could Be Addressed:Tesla has invited investors to ask and upvote questions that they would like addressed.\nAbout 3,265 questions have been posted on the page so far.

Let's dig deeper.&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>The restructuring is showing results</h2>\n<p>In 2018, Ford announced a massive restructuring and cost-cutting program that saw it lay off thousands of workers and reshuffle its product mix to focus on higher-margin trucks and SUVs. The strategy is already making a significant impact on the company's operations.&nbsp;</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8bb5c0bbf83d3e108e8ec701742e3382\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"393\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p>As of June 2021, Ford's U.S. car sales volume dropped to just 2.5% of its total vehicle sales compared to 20% at this time in 2018. The company is also exiting loss-making international markets -- ending manufacturing in India and Brazil, for example. Divesting unprofitable markets (Ford lost over $2 billion in India during the last 10 years) could help free up capital and resources for the company's electric vehicle transition.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Ford is leveraging its strong brands (namely, the Mustang and F-Series) to build an economic moat as its products gain recognition. Review platform CNet ranks its Mach-E as the best midsize electric car for 2021, beating out Tesla's Model 3. And the all-electric F-150 Lightning (expected to launch in 2022) already boasts over 120,000 customer reservations -- all the more impressive because three-quarters of that number would be new customers. The company also recently converted two-thirds of the 190,000 reservations for its new Bronco into actual orders.</p>\n<h2>Navigating near-term challenges</h2>\n<p>Ford's second-quarter revenue jumped 38% year over year to $26.8 billion, helped by an easy comparison to pandemic-affected results in 2020. But it's not all smooth sailing. The company faces headwinds from the semiconductor shortage, which sent U.S sales down an astounding 33% in August.&nbsp;Analysts at advisory firm <b>Forrester</b> think the shortage could last until 2023. </p>\n<p>But Ford has used the crisis as an opportunity to modernize its distribution by focusing on build-to-order sales, which CEO Jim Farley claims is better for its consumers and dealers. Customers get the exact car they want (albeit with a delay) while dealerships have less inventory to manage. The chip shortage could also encourage Ford to prioritize the production of its most profitable vehicles, improving its sales mix.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>In July, management offered guidance for the year, saying that adjusted earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) could total $9 billion to $10 billion -- up from $2.8 billion last year. But it is unclear how the uncertain semiconductor situation will impact that forecast.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>Betting on value</h2>\n<p>With Ford's shares up sharply this year, more investors appear to be betting on its transition to a streamlined, EV-focused automaker. Yet with a forward P/E multiple of 9, the stock is still dirt cheap compared to EV rival Tesla, which trades for 143 times forward earnings.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Ford is unlikely to match Tesla's stratospheric valuation anytime soon (or ever).

Margrethe Vestager called the Digital Markets Act (DMA) to ensure competition.\n\"Despite recent changes, we do not believe it will move market share significantly due to its persisting limitations,\" they said in a joint letter to European Parliament lawmakers.\nThey said a preference menu that let users choose their search default when setting up an Android device is not available on Chrome desktop or on other operating systems, and that it is only shown once to users.\n\"The DMA should enshrine in law a requirement for a search engine preference menu that would effectively ban Google from acquiring default search access points of the operating systems and the browsers of gatekeepers,\" they said.\nThe DMA may come into force in 2023 once it gets the green light from EU lawmakers and EU countries.\n($1 = 0.8654

So if you like the sound of Lowe's Companies, you'll probably love this free list of growing companies that insiders are buying.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"LOW":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":687,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":868889246,"gmtCreate":1632628917185,"gmtModify":1632649442222,"author":{"id":"4093596659918630","authorId":"4093596659918630","name":"Kslee3943","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90de15ce5511304affa25cca2ddef30b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4093596659918630","authorIdStr":"4093596659918630"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/868889246","repostId":"2170865614","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2170865614","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1632627330,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2170865614?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-26 11:35","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Want $1,500 in Quarterly Dividend Income?

Its nearly 8.4% yield is, amazingly, the lowest on this list. However, the company has increased its base annual payout for 22 consecutive years, making it <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the safest ultra-high-yield stocks on the planet.</p>\n<p>For most income investors, the ideas of \"safe\" and \"oil stock\" probably don't belong in the same sentence.

The beauty of Enterprise Products' operating model is its highly transparent take-or-pay contracts. With most of its transmission and storage services spoken for in advance, management is able to outlay capital for new projects without any surprises. This allows for infrastructure advancements and long-term cash flow expansion.</p>\n<p>If you need further evidence that Enterprise Products Partners is rock-solid, take a closer look at its distribution coverage ratio. During the worst of the pandemic, it didn't drop below 1.6 (any figure below 1 would signify an unsustainable payout). Slow and steady growth makes Enterprise Products <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the finest income stocks to own.</p>\n<h2>AGNC Investment: 8.99% yield</h2>\n<p>For those of you who simply can't wait to get your hands on that dividend income, let me introduce you to <b>AGNC Investment </b>(NASDAQ:AGNC). AGNC is a mortgage real estate investment trust (REIT) that pays out its dividend monthly: $0.12 per month, equating to a $1.44 base annual payout. It currently yields about 9%, but has averaged a double-digit yield in 11 of the past 12 years.</p>\n<p>A mortgage REIT is a company that borrows money at lower short-term lending rates with the intent to use this capital to purchase higher-yielding long-term assets, such as mortgage-backed securities (MBS). The difference between this average long-term yield and short-term borrowing rate is known as the net interest margin. And, as you might guess, the wider this margin, the more profit potential for AGNC and other mortgage REITs.</p>\n<p>What makes AGNC so intriguing is that we've entered the sweet spot where mortgage REITs thrive. Looking back at multiple economic recoveries from a recession, it's normal for the yield curve to steepen. This describes a situation where long-term bond yields rise while short-term bond yields fall or flatten. A steepening yield curve coupled with transparently laid-out monetary policy from the Federal Reserve is usually a recipe for net interest margin expansion for the mortgage REIT industry.</p>\n<p>With share price appreciation potential and a 9% yield to boot, AGNC Investment is an income investor's dream come true.</p>\n<h2>Antero Midstream: 9.15% yield</h2>\n<p>Though Enterprise Products Partners is the king of the hill among safe, ultra-high-yield energy companies, <b>Antero Midstream</b> (NYSE:AM) is a very respectable second fiddle on this list. This midstream operator is yielding nearly 9.2% and has a strong track record of returning most of its cash flow to shareholders in the form of a dividend.</p>\n<p>Unlike Enterprise Products, Antero was forced to reduce its distribution earlier this year. Its quarterly payout declined 27% to $0.225 from $0.308. However, it wasn't the pandemic that coerced this move. Parent company <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AR\">Antero Resources</a></b> (NYSE:AR) is upping its natural gas drilling on Antero Midstream's dedicated acreage. In other words, Antero Midstream has reallocated some of the capital it would normally have paid out via dividends to boost its capital budget and beef up its transmission and storage infrastructure. Curtailing the dividend now and upping its 2021 infrastructure spending is expected to add $400 million in incremental free cash flow for Antero Midstream through 2025.</p>\n<p>What's more, Antero Midstream had been actively repurchasing its stock prior to parent Antero Resources announcing its intent to boost natural gas production. Antero Midstream has since put this buyback program on the back burner, but nevertheless extended the remaining $150 million in repurchase capacity through the end of 2023. It looks as if shareholders are going to benefit from increased transmission/storage needs, higher cash flow, <i>and</i> an eventual resumption of this buyback program.</p>\n<h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IVR\">Invesco Mortgage Capital</a>: 11.61% yield</h2>\n<p>Saving the highest yield for last, we have mortgage REIT <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IVZ\">Invesco</a> Mortgage Capital</b> (NYSE:IVR). Reinvesting your payouts with an 11.6% yield would double your initial investment in roughly six years.</p>\n<p>Last year, Invesco found itself in some deep trouble, and the company's pulverized share price shows it. The company had a slew of commercial MBS and credit-risk transfer assets in its portfolio that were non-agency. A non-agency asset isn't backed by the federal government in the event of default. Not having this protection does boost the yield that mortgage REITs receive. Unfortunately, a steep recession, such as the one experienced during the pandemic, caused a wave of defaults that REITs simply couldn't handle.</p>\n<p>The good news is that management appears to have learned its lesson. Invesco Mortgage has almost exclusively been purchasing residential agency MBS&nbsp;for its portfolio. Although agency assets sport lower yields than non-agency assets, this added protection allows Invesco to use leverage to increase its profit potential.</p>\n<p>And, as I noted with AGNC, economic recoveries are generally a positive thing for mortgage REITs. In the second quarter, Invesco Mortgage Capital's average net interest margin expanded by 32 basis points to 2.12% from 1.8% in the sequential first quarter.</p>\n<p>The ride will likely be bumpier with Invesco, compared with AGNC, given its 2020 miscues and its ongoing shift into agency MBS. But with management focused on agency assets, Invesco's ultra-high-yield payout can be trusted&nbsp;once more.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Want $1,500 in Quarterly Dividend Income?

As part of that discussion, Chapek talked about Disney's various business segments and strategies.</p>\n<p>Unsurprisingly, the topic of exclusive theatrical film releases came up -- to which the CEO gave insight into the company's thinking. The House of Mouse is not committing to exclusive theatrical releases in the future. The announcement follows a previous <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> where Disney said it would exclusively release the rest of its 2021 film slate in theaters. Let's dive deeper and discern why it could be bad news for movie theater chain <b>AMC Entertainment Group</b> (NYSE:AMC).<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/21f008bc5de5578fa8adf50a52483edf\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h2>Disney is keeping its options open</h2>\n<p>Since the pandemic onset, Disney has implemented three methods of releasing new films: Direct to its streaming service free to subscribers, simultaneous release in theaters with the option to buy the movie on streaming service for $29.99, and finally, the traditional exclusive theatrical release. Note, studios typically split box-office revenue 50/50 with theater chains.</p>\n<p>Out of the three, there is no question AMC would prefer exclusive theatrical releases. That way, if consumers want to see the movie, they have no choice but to go to a theater to watch it. That is, of course, for the first 30 days or 45 days or however long the exclusivity agreement is in place before it moves onto streaming services. With no option other than to wait, consumers could be enticed to watch in theaters.</p>\n<p>At the opposite end of the spectrum are the free to existing subscribers direct to streaming releases. These are the worst for AMC because the films never hit theaters, earning zero revenue.</p>\n<p>Although not the best, the simultaneous release format gives AMC a chance to bring people to theaters and earn revenue on ticket sales and concessions. Marvel's <i>Black Widow</i> was released in theaters and on Disney+ for purchase at $29.99 on the same day. As of this writing, the film has grossed $378 million in box office sales -- not to mention the revenue earned from selling $9 popcorn and $6 soda.</p>\n<p>The film also earned $125 million in sales on Disney+. At $29.99 per purchase, that constitutes at least four million households. You can start to see how a simultaneous release could cannibalize box office sales.</p>\n<p>Therefore, AMC must not have been happy with the Disney CEO's failure to commit to exclusive theatrical releases in the future. Disney already committed to exclusive releases for the rest of 2021, so there was hope it would extend the decision long-term, which was not the case.</p>\n<h2>Home theaters are getting better</h2>\n<p>Box office ticket sales have been on a steady decline for two decades.

As part of that discussion, Chapek talked about Disney's various business segments and strategies.\nUnsurprisingly, the topic of exclusive theatrical film releases came up -- to which the CEO gave insight into the company's thinking. The House of Mouse is not committing to exclusive theatrical releases in the future. The announcement follows a previous one where Disney said it would exclusively release the rest of its 2021 film slate in theaters. Let's dive deeper and discern why it could be bad news for movie theater chain AMC Entertainment Group (NYSE:AMC).Image source: Getty Images.\nDisney is keeping its options open\nSince the pandemic onset, Disney has implemented three methods of releasing new films: Direct to its streaming service free to subscribers, simultaneous release in theaters with the option to buy the movie on streaming service for $29.99, and finally, the traditional exclusive theatrical release. Note, studios typically split box-office revenue 50/50 with theater chains.\nOut of the three, there is no question AMC would prefer exclusive theatrical releases. That way, if consumers want to see the movie, they have no choice but to go to a theater to watch it. That is, of course, for the first 30 days or 45 days or however long the exclusivity agreement is in place before it moves onto streaming services. With no option other than to wait, consumers could be enticed to watch in theaters.\nAt the opposite end of the spectrum are the free to existing subscribers direct to streaming releases. These are the worst for AMC because the films never hit theaters, earning zero revenue.\nAlthough not the best, the simultaneous release format gives AMC a chance to bring people to theaters and earn revenue on ticket sales and concessions. Marvel's Black Widow was released in theaters and on Disney+ for purchase at $29.99 on the same day. As of this writing, the film has grossed $378 million in box office sales -- not to mention the revenue earned from selling $9 popcorn and $6 soda.\nThe film also earned $125 million in sales on Disney+. At $29.99 per purchase, that constitutes at least four million households. You can start to see how a simultaneous release could cannibalize box office sales.\nTherefore, AMC must not have been happy with the Disney CEO's failure to commit to exclusive theatrical releases in the future. Disney already committed to exclusive releases for the rest of 2021, so there was hope it would extend the decision long-term, which was not the case.\nHome theaters are getting better\nBox office ticket sales have been on a steady decline for two decades. The in-home viewing experience has improved over the years, while the theater experience has stayed roughly the same, albeit more expensive.\nThe coronavirus pandemic allowed studios like Disney to experiment and learn from multiple film release options. Before the outbreak, the only option had been exclusive theatrical. Studios would not be prudent if they didn't hold onto that option, even if they don't end up exercising it. At the very least, it could improve studios' negotiation power over revenue split and other terms against AMC.\nAs AMC battles to bounce back from lost revenue during the pandemic, news like this from Disney will not help.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMC":0.9,"DIS":0.9,"NWS":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":646,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":861547233,"gmtCreate":1632527921422,"gmtModify":1632712508410,"author":{"id":"4093596659918630","authorId":"4093596659918630","name":"Kslee3943","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90de15ce5511304affa25cca2ddef30b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4093596659918630","authorIdStr":"4093596659918630"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good deal","listText":"Good deal","text":"Good deal","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/861547233","repostId":"2169615548","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":605,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":861544162,"gmtCreate":1632527836056,"gmtModify":1632712538424,"author":{"id":"4093596659918630","authorId":"4093596659918630","name":"Kslee3943","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90de15ce5511304affa25cca2ddef30b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4093596659918630","authorIdStr":"4093596659918630"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Deal","listText":"Deal","text":"Deal","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/861544162","repostId":"2169590615","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2169590615","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1632493860,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2169590615?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-24 22:31","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Cannabis Stocks That Reddit Can't Get Enough Of","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2169590615","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Internet stock discussion forums are filled with chatter about these three marijuana companies.","content":"<p>It's a sign of the times that internet forums can have just as much influence over a stock's growth trajectory as white-shoe investment firms.

Though it grows and sells marijuana, the company also has an investing wing it uses to gobble up stakes in smaller competitors, and that's one of the things that makes it special.</p>\n<p>Aside from frequently appearing in the top discussions in hotspots like the WallStreetBets subreddit, Sundial is also featured in a pair of subreddits devoted solely to talking about it, with the largest clocking in at around 63,800 subscribers. While Sundial may not be the pot stock that Redditors chat about the most by volume -- that distinction goes to Tilray -- it stands out because of the overwhelmingly positive sentiment that its fans on the site are prone to.</p>\n<p>Even if some skepticism might be deserved (it's a penny stock, after all), it's hard to find any comments that are critical of the company's prospects. Nonetheless, Redditors usually seem to prefer discussing the quality, profitability, and distribution of its marijuana products rather than one of its biggest strengths: investment income.</p>\n<p>In the second quarter, Sundial made $5.7 million in net investment and fee revenue, and $3.7 million in profit equity from investees. That means it made more money from investing than it did from selling cannabis, which only brought in $9.2 million in the same period. So, it can succeed and grow on the basis of its investment income even if its branded marijuana products are unpopular with consumers or narrowly distributed.</p>\n<p>And, management is keen to continue expanding its revenue-bearing investments to make use of the company's cash hoard of around $1.3 billion. On Sept. 17, it invested $300,000 in purchasing shares of <b>Valens GroWorks</b>,&nbsp;a versatile cannabis company with operations in the U.S. and Canada which Sundial already owned 9.99% of.</p>\n<p>If the preliminary discussion on Reddit is any indication, the purchase is yet another smart move by Sundial, and in this case, I can't say that I disagree.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F644282%2Fmedical-marijuana-cannabis-doctor-patient-healthcare-getty.jpeg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>A cannabis stock worth the wait</h3>\n<p><b>Rich Duprey (Tilray):</b> Despite continuing to receive support from the Reddit crowd, Tilray stock remains on a downward trend. While shares remain 45% higher than where they started the year, mostly a result of the meme stock trading frenzy in January and February, but also due to its acquisition of Aphria, the cannabis company has lost nearly half its value over the last six months.</p>\n<p>Yet Reddit traders can't stop talking about its potential, particularly after it acquired last month a significant stake in <b>MedMen</b>, a multi-state operator with 21 licenses and 25 retail locations including in Los Angeles, Boston, and Chicago. Their interest in Tilray isn't misplaced.</p>\n<p>After the Aphria merger, Tilray is the biggest marijuana producer in Canada by revenue and its market cap of $5.3 billion puts it just behind <b>Canopy Growth</b> at $5.5 billion as the largest cannabis stock by market value.</p>\n<p>Tilray also has a global reach few others can hope to match with its hand in recreational, medical, and pharmaceutical distribution. While each segment is currently walled off largely by specific geographies -- recreational marijuana is in Canada, medical marijuana is largely in Europe and Australia, and the pharma operations are in Germany -- the intent is to eventually have them overlap everywhere.</p>\n<p>While it has a U.S. presence of sorts through its joint venture with <b>Anheuser-Busch InBev</b> and Aphria's previous acquisition of Stillwater Brewing, the MedMen investment gives Tilray entry into some of the most important marijuana markets, including California and Florida. But that won't happen until legalization occurs at the federal level, and though there seems to be a consensus forming that it will happen sooner rather than later, it's nowhere near a done deal.</p>\n<p>Still, MedMen sales are growing, up 55% in the second quarter, and it significantly narrowed its losses, reporting a $41.7 million operating loss for the period, much smaller than the $279 million loss a year ago.</p>\n<p>Tilray itself is growing, too, with revenue 27% higher and adjusted EBITDA of $12.3 million. It suggests the marijuana stock is still worthy of the buzz it generates in internet chat rooms and elsewhere, but may require patience for it to realize its full potential.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Cannabis Stocks That Reddit Can't Get Enough Of</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Cannabis Stocks That Reddit Can't Get Enough Of\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-09-24 22:31 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/09/24/3-cannabis-stocks-that-reddit-cant-get-enough-of/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>It's a sign of the times that internet forums can have just as much influence over a stock's growth trajectory as white-shoe investment firms.

So, it can succeed and grow on the basis of its investment income even if its branded marijuana products are unpopular with consumers or narrowly distributed.\nAnd, management is keen to continue expanding its revenue-bearing investments to make use of the company's cash hoard of around $1.3 billion. On Sept. 17, it invested $300,000 in purchasing shares of Valens GroWorks, a versatile cannabis company with operations in the U.S. and Canada which Sundial already owned 9.99% of.\nIf the preliminary discussion on Reddit is any indication, the purchase is yet another smart move by Sundial, and in this case, I can't say that I disagree.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nA cannabis stock worth the wait\nRich Duprey (Tilray): Despite continuing to receive support from the Reddit crowd, Tilray stock remains on a downward trend. While shares remain 45% higher than where they started the year, mostly a result of the meme stock trading frenzy in January and February, but also due to its acquisition of Aphria, the cannabis company has lost nearly half its value over the last six months.\nYet Reddit traders can't stop talking about its potential, particularly after it acquired last month a significant stake in MedMen, a multi-state operator with 21 licenses and 25 retail locations including in Los Angeles, Boston, and Chicago. Their interest in Tilray isn't misplaced.\nAfter the Aphria merger, Tilray is the biggest marijuana producer in Canada by revenue and its market cap of $5.3 billion puts it just behind Canopy Growth at $5.5 billion as the largest cannabis stock by market value.\nTilray also has a global reach few others can hope to match with its hand in recreational, medical, and pharmaceutical distribution. While each segment is currently walled off largely by specific geographies -- recreational marijuana is in Canada, medical marijuana is largely in Europe and Australia, and the pharma operations are in Germany -- the intent is to eventually have them overlap everywhere.\nWhile it has a U.S. presence of sorts through its joint venture with Anheuser-Busch InBev and Aphria's previous acquisition of Stillwater Brewing, the MedMen investment gives Tilray entry into some of the most important marijuana markets, including California and Florida. But that won't happen until legalization occurs at the federal level, and though there seems to be a consensus forming that it will happen sooner rather than later, it's nowhere near a done deal.\nStill, MedMen sales are growing, up 55% in the second quarter, and it significantly narrowed its losses, reporting a $41.7 million operating loss for the period, much smaller than the $279 million loss a year ago.\nTilray itself is growing, too, with revenue 27% higher and adjusted EBITDA of $12.3 million. It suggests the marijuana stock is still worthy of the buzz it generates in internet chat rooms and elsewhere, but may require patience for it to realize its full potential.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"08100":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":639,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":861545465,"gmtCreate":1632527818157,"gmtModify":1632712547426,"author":{"id":"4093596659918630","authorId":"4093596659918630","name":"Kslee3943","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90de15ce5511304affa25cca2ddef30b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4093596659918630","authorIdStr":"4093596659918630"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Deal","listText":"Deal","text":"Deal","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/861545465","repostId":"1114004721","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1114004721","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":1632496493,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1114004721?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-24 23:14","market":"us","language":"en","title":"IPO opening reminder: Clearwater Analytics opens for trading at $23.8, up about 32% from IPO price","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1114004721","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"(Sept 24) Clearwater Analytics Holdings, Inc. opens for trading at $23.8, up about 32% from IPO pric","content":"<p>(Sept 24)&nbsp;<b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CWAN\">Clearwater Analytics Holdings, Inc.</a></b> opens for trading at $23.8, up about 32% from IPO price.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/076505c7b70dbe2ad6cfcae8c44f52cb\" tg-width=\"902\" tg-height=\"557\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><b>Company &amp; Technology</b></p>\n<p>Boise, Idaho-based Clearwater was founded to develop a SaaS platform to simplify investment accounting and analysis for asset managers, insurance companies and large corporations.</p>\n<p>Management is headed by Chief Executive Officer Sandeep Sahai, who has been with the firm since September 2016 and was previously CEO of Solmark, an investment partnership.</p>\n<p>The company’s primary offerings include:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><p>Investment accounting and reporting</p></li>\n <li><p>Performance measurement</p></li>\n <li><p>Compliance monitoring</p></li>\n <li><p>Risk analysis</p></li>\n</ul>\n<p>Clearwater has received at least $421 million in notes payable in equity investment from investors including Welsh Carson, Permira, Warburg Pincus and Dragoneer.</p>\n<p><b>Customer Acquisition</b></p>\n<p>The firm pursues client relationships with asset managers, insurance companies and large corporations via a direct sales and marketing force that is focused on the United States.</p>\n<p>CWAN also has international clients and will seek to expand its international presence post-IPO.</p>\n<p>Clearwater handles data on over $5.6 trillion in assets between more than 1,000 clients.</p>\n<p>Sales and Marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenue have varied as revenues have increased, as the figures below indicate:</p>\n<table>\n <colgroup></colgroup>\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p><b>Sales and Marketing</b></p></td>\n   <td><p><b>Expenses vs. Revenue</b></p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>Period</p></td>\n   <td><p>Percentage</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>Six Mos.

In my view, this is justified as the firm is growing revenue at a significantly higher rate of growth.\nAfter a difficult period during 2020 where the firm produced operating losses, 2021 has seen a return to operating and net profits with impressive growth as well.\nGiven CWAN’s growth trajectory and the investment management software industry’s strong growth potential in the years ahead, the IPO is worth a close look.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"CWAN":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":632,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":861545653,"gmtCreate":1632527805272,"gmtModify":1632712550427,"author":{"id":"4093596659918630","authorId":"4093596659918630","name":"Kslee3943","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90de15ce5511304affa25cca2ddef30b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4093596659918630","authorIdStr":"4093596659918630"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good&nbsp;","listText":"Good&nbsp;","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/861545653","repostId":"2170361942","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":704,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":868889246,"gmtCreate":1632628917185,"gmtModify":1632649442222,"author":{"id":"4093596659918630","authorId":"4093596659918630","name":"Kslee3943","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90de15ce5511304affa25cca2ddef30b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4093596659918630","authorIdStr":"4093596659918630"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/868889246","repostId":"2170865614","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2170865614","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1632627330,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2170865614?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-26 11:35","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Want $1,500 in Quarterly Dividend Income?

If you wanted to sit back and collect $1,500 in quarterly dividend income, you could do so by putting up an initial investment of $63,000 and splitting it evenly among the following four stocks, which sport an average yield of 9.53%.</p>\n<h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EBTC\">Enterprise</a> Products Partners: 8.36% yield</h2>\n<p>If there's such a thing as a premier ultra-high-yield dividend stock in the energy space, its master limited partnership <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EFSC\">Enterprise</a> Products Partners</b> (NYSE:EPD). Its nearly 8.4% yield is, amazingly, the lowest on this list. However, the company has increased its base annual payout for 22 consecutive years, making it <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the safest ultra-high-yield stocks on the planet.</p>\n<p>For most income investors, the ideas of \"safe\" and \"oil stock\" probably don't belong in the same sentence. Last year's historic demand drawdown for crude oil turned the upstream drillers on their heads.

The beauty of Enterprise Products' operating model is its highly transparent take-or-pay contracts. With most of its transmission and storage services spoken for in advance, management is able to outlay capital for new projects without any surprises. This allows for infrastructure advancements and long-term cash flow expansion.</p>\n<p>If you need further evidence that Enterprise Products Partners is rock-solid, take a closer look at its distribution coverage ratio. During the worst of the pandemic, it didn't drop below 1.6 (any figure below 1 would signify an unsustainable payout). Slow and steady growth makes Enterprise Products <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the finest income stocks to own.</p>\n<h2>AGNC Investment: 8.99% yield</h2>\n<p>For those of you who simply can't wait to get your hands on that dividend income, let me introduce you to <b>AGNC Investment </b>(NASDAQ:AGNC). AGNC is a mortgage real estate investment trust (REIT) that pays out its dividend monthly: $0.12 per month, equating to a $1.44 base annual payout. It currently yields about 9%, but has averaged a double-digit yield in 11 of the past 12 years.</p>\n<p>A mortgage REIT is a company that borrows money at lower short-term lending rates with the intent to use this capital to purchase higher-yielding long-term assets, such as mortgage-backed securities (MBS). The difference between this average long-term yield and short-term borrowing rate is known as the net interest margin. And, as you might guess, the wider this margin, the more profit potential for AGNC and other mortgage REITs.</p>\n<p>What makes AGNC so intriguing is that we've entered the sweet spot where mortgage REITs thrive. Looking back at multiple economic recoveries from a recession, it's normal for the yield curve to steepen. This describes a situation where long-term bond yields rise while short-term bond yields fall or flatten. A steepening yield curve coupled with transparently laid-out monetary policy from the Federal Reserve is usually a recipe for net interest margin expansion for the mortgage REIT industry.</p>\n<p>With share price appreciation potential and a 9% yield to boot, AGNC Investment is an income investor's dream come true.</p>\n<h2>Antero Midstream: 9.15% yield</h2>\n<p>Though Enterprise Products Partners is the king of the hill among safe, ultra-high-yield energy companies, <b>Antero Midstream</b> (NYSE:AM) is a very respectable second fiddle on this list. This midstream operator is yielding nearly 9.2% and has a strong track record of returning most of its cash flow to shareholders in the form of a dividend.</p>\n<p>Unlike Enterprise Products, Antero was forced to reduce its distribution earlier this year. Its quarterly payout declined 27% to $0.225 from $0.308. However, it wasn't the pandemic that coerced this move. Parent company <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AR\">Antero Resources</a></b> (NYSE:AR) is upping its natural gas drilling on Antero Midstream's dedicated acreage. In other words, Antero Midstream has reallocated some of the capital it would normally have paid out via dividends to boost its capital budget and beef up its transmission and storage infrastructure. Curtailing the dividend now and upping its 2021 infrastructure spending is expected to add $400 million in incremental free cash flow for Antero Midstream through 2025.</p>\n<p>What's more, Antero Midstream had been actively repurchasing its stock prior to parent Antero Resources announcing its intent to boost natural gas production. Antero Midstream has since put this buyback program on the back burner, but nevertheless extended the remaining $150 million in repurchase capacity through the end of 2023. It looks as if shareholders are going to benefit from increased transmission/storage needs, higher cash flow, <i>and</i> an eventual resumption of this buyback program.</p>\n<h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IVR\">Invesco Mortgage Capital</a>: 11.61% yield</h2>\n<p>Saving the highest yield for last, we have mortgage REIT <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IVZ\">Invesco</a> Mortgage Capital</b> (NYSE:IVR). Reinvesting your payouts with an 11.6% yield would double your initial investment in roughly six years.</p>\n<p>Last year, Invesco found itself in some deep trouble, and the company's pulverized share price shows it. The company had a slew of commercial MBS and credit-risk transfer assets in its portfolio that were non-agency. A non-agency asset isn't backed by the federal government in the event of default. Not having this protection does boost the yield that mortgage REITs receive. Unfortunately, a steep recession, such as the one experienced during the pandemic, caused a wave of defaults that REITs simply couldn't handle.</p>\n<p>The good news is that management appears to have learned its lesson. Invesco Mortgage has almost exclusively been purchasing residential agency MBS&nbsp;for its portfolio. Although agency assets sport lower yields than non-agency assets, this added protection allows Invesco to use leverage to increase its profit potential.</p>\n<p>And, as I noted with AGNC, economic recoveries are generally a positive thing for mortgage REITs. In the second quarter, Invesco Mortgage Capital's average net interest margin expanded by 32 basis points to 2.12% from 1.8% in the sequential first quarter.</p>\n<p>The ride will likely be bumpier with Invesco, compared with AGNC, given its 2020 miscues and its ongoing shift into agency MBS. But with management focused on agency assets, Invesco's ultra-high-yield payout can be trusted&nbsp;once more.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Want $1,500 in Quarterly Dividend Income?

The holiday-shortened week then features several notable company updates and economic data releases.\nGameStop and Lululemon Athletica release quarterly results on Wednesday, followed by International Paper on Thursday and Kroger on Friday. Analog Devices—fresh off of its $21 billion acquisition of Maxim Integrated Products—will host an investor day on Wednesday. Moderna, Danaher, and Home Depot managements will also speak with investors on Thursday. Finally, Albemarle hosts an investor day on Friday.\nThe economic data highlight of the week will be Friday’s August producer price index from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Economists’ consensus estimate is for a 0.6% monthly rise in the headline index, and a 0.5% increase for the core PPI—which leaves out more volatile food and energy prices. Both the core and headline indexes rose 1% in July. The August consumer price index will be out the following week, on Sept. 14.\nOn Tuesday, the Federal Reserve will release its latest beige book, full of updates on economic, hiring, and business conditions in each of the dozen central bank districts. The European Central Bank also announces a monetary-policy decision on Thursday, but is widely expected to hold its target interest rate at its current level of negative 0.5%.\nMonday 9/6\nStock and fixed-income markets are closed in observance of Labor Day.\nTuesday 9/7\nCasey’s General Stores and Coupa Software announce earnings.\nWednesday 9/8\nCopart, GameStop, and Lululemon Athletica release quarterly results.\nAnalog Devices hosts a conference call to discuss its capital-allocation plans and update its outlook for fiscal 2021. The company recently closed its $21 billion acquisition of Maxim Integrated Products.\nGlobal Payments, Johnson Controls International, and ResMed hold virtual investor days.\nThe Bureau of Labor Statistics releases the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey. Consensus estimate is for 10 million job openings on the last business day of July. In June, there were 10.1 million openings, the fourth consecutive monthly record.\nThe Federal Reserve reports consumer credit data for July. Total outstanding consumer debt increased by $37.7 billion to a record $4.32 trillion in June. For the second quarter, consumer credit rose at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 8.8%, reflecting pent-up demand.\nThe Federal Reserve releases the beige book for the sixth of eight times this year. The report summarizes current economic conditions among the 12 Federal Reserve districts.\nThursday 9/9\nHome Depot hosts a conference call to discuss its ESG strategy, led by Ron Jarvis, the company’s chief sustainability officer.\nModerna hosts its fifth annual R&D day to discuss vaccines in the company’s pipeline. CEO Stéphane Bancel will be among the presenters.\nDanaher holds an investor and analyst meeting, hosted by its CEO Rainer Blair.\nInternational Paper, Synchrony Financial, and Willis Towers Watson hold investor days.\nThe European Central Bank announces its monetary-policy decision. The ECB is expected to keep its key interest rate unchanged at minus 0.5%.\nThe Department of Labor reports initial jobless claims for the week ending on Sept. 4. In August, claims averaged 355,000 a week, the lowest since the pandemic’s onset. This will also be the last week that the extra $300 from federal enhanced unemployment benefits is available. They are set to expire by Sept. 6.\nFriday 9/10\nThe BLS reports the producer price index for August. Economists forecast a 0.6% monthly rise along with a 0.5% increase for the core PPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices.

But first, what can we learn from this winner?</p>\n<p>So-called quants never share all the details of their proprietary systems, but Howard shares a lot, as you’ll see. And this Texas rancher has a lot of good advice based on “horse sense” — not surprising, given his infectious passion for the markets, and his three decades of experience as a pro.</p>\n<p>Here are five lessons, 12 exchange traded funds (ETFs) and four stocks to consider, from a recent interview with him.</p>\n<p><b>Lesson #1: Don’t be emotional</b></p>\n<p>It’s no surprise so many people do poorly in the market. Evolution has programmed us to fail. For survival, we’ve learned to run from things that frightens us. And crave more of things that are pleasurable — like sweets or fats to store calories ahead of what might be a long stretch without food. But in the market, acting on the emotions of fear and greed invariably make us do the wrong thing at the wrong time. Sell at the bottom, buy at the top.</p>\n<p>Likewise, we’re programmed to believe being with the crowd brings safety. If you’re a zebra on the Savanna, you are more likely to get picked off by a predator if you go it alone. The problem here is being part of a crowd — and crowd psychology — dumb us down to a purely emotional level. This is why people in crowds do terrible things they would never do on their own. It doesn’t matter how smart you are. When you join a crowd, you lose a lot of IQ points. Base emotions take over.</p>\n<p>To do well in the market, you have to counteract these tendencies. “One of the biggest mistakes individual investors and money managers make is getting emotional,” says Howard. “Let your emotions go.”</p>\n<p><b>Lesson #2: Have a system and stick to it</b></p>\n<p>To exorcise emotion, have a system. “And don’t second guess it,” says Howard. “This keeps you from letting the pandemic or Afghanistan scare you out of the market.” He calls his system the HCM-BuyLine. It is basically a momentum and trend-following system — which often works well in the markets.</p>\n<p>The HCM-BuyLine basically works like this. First, rather than use the S&amp;P 500SPX,-0.03%or the Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA,-0.21%,Howard blends several stock indices to create his own index. Then he uses a moving average that tells him whether the market is in an uptrend or downtrend.</p>\n<p>When the moving average drops 3.5%, he sells 35%. If it drops 6.5%, he sells another 35%. He rarely goes to 100% cash.</p>\n<p>“If the BuyLine is positive, we will stay long no matter what,” he says. “We take all the emotion out of the equation by letting the math decide.”</p>\n<p>Right now, it’s bullish. (More on this below.)</p>\n<p>Your system also has to tell you when to get back in.</p>\n<p>“That’s where most people screw up,” he says. “They get out of the market, and they don’t know when to get back in.” The HCM-BuyLine gives a buy signal when his custom index trades above its moving average for six consecutive sessions, and then goes on to trade above the high hit during those six days.</p>\n<p>You don’t need a system that calls exact market tops or bottoms. Instead, the BuyLine keeps Howard out of down markets 85% of the time, and in for 85% of the good times.</p>\n<p>“If we can do that consistently, we have superior returns and a less stressful life,” he says. “Being all in during a bad tape is no fun.”</p>\n<p>His system is slow to get him out of the market, but quick to get him back in. Not even a 10% correction will necessarily move him out. He’s often buying those pullbacks. Getting back in fast makes sense, because recoveries off bottoms tend to happen fast.</p>\n<p>“The HCM-BuyLine takes all the emotion out of the process,” says Howard.</p>\n<p><b>Lesson #3: Don’t fight the tape</b></p>\n<p>This concept is one of the core pieces of wisdom from Marty Zweig’s classic book, “Winning on Wall Street.”</p>\n<p>“You have to stay on the right side of market,” agrees Howard. “If you try to trade long in a bad market, it is painful.”</p>\n<p>In other words, don’t try to be a hero.</p>\n<p>“Sometimes, not losing money is where you want to be,” he says.</p>\n<p>Likewise, don’t turn cautious just because the market hits new highs — like now. You should love new highs, because it is a sign of market strength that may likely endure.</p>\n<p><b>Lesson #4: Keep it simple</b></p>\n<p>As you’ll see below, Howard doesn’t use esoteric instruments such as derivatives, swaps or index options. He doesn’t even trade foreign stocks or currencies. This is refreshing for individual investors, because we have a harder time accessing those tools.</p>\n<p>“You don’t have to trade crazy stuff,” he says. “You can trade plain-vanilla ETFs and beat everybody out there.”</p>\n<p><b>Lesson #5: How to trade the current market</b></p>\n<p>First, be long.</p>\n<p>“The HCM-BuyLine is very positive. We are 100% in,” says Howard. “The market is broadening out. It is getting pretty exciting. We do not see it turn around any time soon. We are buying pullbacks.”</p>\n<p>One bullish signal is all the cash on the sidelines. “If there is any relief in Covid, we may see a big rally. We may end up with a great fall [season].”</p>\n<p>Howard uses momentum indicators to select stocks and ETFs, too. For sectors he favors the following.</p>\n<p>He likes health care, tradable through the iShares US HealthcareIYH,-0.04%and ProShares Ultra Health CareRXL,+0.12%ETFs. He’s turning more bullish on biotech, which he plays via the iShares Biotechnology ETFIBB,-0.11%.</p>\n<p>He likes consumer discretionary tradable through the iShares US Consumer ServicesIYC,-0.30%,and airlines via US Global JetsJETS,-1.17%.He also likes tech exposure via the Invesco QQQ TrustQQQ,+0.31%,iShares US TechnologyIYW,+0.50%and&nbsp;iShares SemiconductorSOXX,+0.75%.</p>\n<p>He likes small-caps via the Vanguard Small-Cap Growth Index FundVBK,+0.07%.And convertible bonds via SPDR Bloomberg Barclays Convertible SecuritiesCWB,+0.64%and iShares Convertible BondICVT,+0.37%.</p>\n<p>As for individual names, he singles out MicrosoftMSFT,-0.00%and AppleAAPL,+0.42%in tech, as well as Amazon.comAMZN,+0.43%and TeslaTSLA,+0.16%.</p>\n<p>Also consider Howard’s two ETFs: The HCM Defender 100 IndexQQH,+0.62%and HCM Defender 500 IndexLGH,+1.32%.</p>\n<p>He prefers to add to holdings on 1%-3% dips.</p>\n<p><b>A few drawbacks</b></p>\n<p>His HCM Tactical Growth fund has a history of posting two-year stretches of underperformance of 1.5% to 8.8%, since it was launched in 2015. The fund then came roaring back to net the very positive five-year outperformance cited above. Investing in his system can require patience.</p>\n<p>Every manager, including Warren Buffett, can have a stretch of underperformance, says Howard.</p>\n<p>“We are in the odds game,” he says. “Even in the odds game, you can have a bad hand or two thrown at you.”</p>\n<p>Another challenge is the high turnover, which is 140% a year for Tactical Growth. This means Uncle Sam takes a big cut in the good years. So if you buy Howard’s funds, you may want to do so in a tax-protected account.</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","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>Beat the market with this quant system that’s very bullish on stocks at record highs</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nBeat the market with this quant system that’s very bullish on stocks at record highs\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-09-05 10:56 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/beat-the-market-with-this-quant-system-thats-very-bullish-on-stocks-at-record-highs-11630761531?mod=home-page><strong>MarketWatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Vance Howard’s HCM Tactical Growth Fund moves you in and out of the stock market when prudent to do so.

He rarely goes to 100% cash.\n“If the BuyLine is positive, we will stay long no matter what,” he says. “We take all the emotion out of the equation by letting the math decide.”\nRight now, it’s bullish. (More on this below.)\nYour system also has to tell you when to get back in.\n“That’s where most people screw up,” he says. “They get out of the market, and they don’t know when to get back in.” The HCM-BuyLine gives a buy signal when his custom index trades above its moving average for six consecutive sessions, and then goes on to trade above the high hit during those six days.\nYou don’t need a system that calls exact market tops or bottoms. Instead, the BuyLine keeps Howard out of down markets 85% of the time, and in for 85% of the good times.\n“If we can do that consistently, we have superior returns and a less stressful life,” he says. “Being all in during a bad tape is no fun.”\nHis system is slow to get him out of the market, but quick to get him back in. Not even a 10% correction will necessarily move him out. He’s often buying those pullbacks. Getting back in fast makes sense, because recoveries off bottoms tend to happen fast.\n“The HCM-BuyLine takes all the emotion out of the process,” says Howard.\nLesson #3: Don’t fight the tape\nThis concept is one of the core pieces of wisdom from Marty Zweig’s classic book, “Winning on Wall Street.”\n“You have to stay on the right side of market,” agrees Howard. “If you try to trade long in a bad market, it is painful.”\nIn other words, don’t try to be a hero.\n“Sometimes, not losing money is where you want to be,” he says.\nLikewise, don’t turn cautious just because the market hits new highs — like now. You should love new highs, because it is a sign of market strength that may likely endure.\nLesson #4: Keep it simple\nAs you’ll see below, Howard doesn’t use esoteric instruments such as derivatives, swaps or index options. He doesn’t even trade foreign stocks or currencies. This is refreshing for individual investors, because we have a harder time accessing those tools.\n“You don’t have to trade crazy stuff,” he says. “You can trade plain-vanilla ETFs and beat everybody out there.”\nLesson #5: How to trade the current market\nFirst, be long.\n“The HCM-BuyLine is very positive. We are 100% in,” says Howard. “The market is broadening out. It is getting pretty exciting. We do not see it turn around any time soon. We are buying pullbacks.”\nOne bullish signal is all the cash on the sidelines. “If there is any relief in Covid, we may see a big rally. We may end up with a great fall [season].”\nHoward uses momentum indicators to select stocks and ETFs, too. For sectors he favors the following.\nHe likes health care, tradable through the iShares US HealthcareIYH,-0.04%and ProShares Ultra Health CareRXL,+0.12%ETFs. He’s turning more bullish on biotech, which he plays via the iShares Biotechnology ETFIBB,-0.11%.\nHe likes consumer discretionary tradable through the iShares US Consumer ServicesIYC,-0.30%,and airlines via US Global JetsJETS,-1.17%.He also likes tech exposure via the Invesco QQQ TrustQQQ,+0.31%,iShares US TechnologyIYW,+0.50%and iShares SemiconductorSOXX,+0.75%.\nHe likes small-caps via the Vanguard Small-Cap Growth Index FundVBK,+0.07%.And convertible bonds via SPDR Bloomberg Barclays Convertible SecuritiesCWB,+0.64%and iShares Convertible BondICVT,+0.37%.\nAs for individual names, he singles out MicrosoftMSFT,-0.00%and AppleAAPL,+0.42%in tech, as well as Amazon.comAMZN,+0.43%and TeslaTSLA,+0.16%.\nAlso consider Howard’s two ETFs: The HCM Defender 100 IndexQQH,+0.62%and HCM Defender 500 IndexLGH,+1.32%.\nHe prefers to add to holdings on 1%-3% dips.\nA few drawbacks\nHis HCM Tactical Growth fund has a history of posting two-year stretches of underperformance of 1.5% to 8.8%, since it was launched in 2015. The fund then came roaring back to net the very positive five-year outperformance cited above. Investing in his system can require patience.\nEvery manager, including Warren Buffett, can have a stretch of underperformance, says Howard.\n“We are in the odds game,” he says. “Even in the odds game, you can have a bad hand or two thrown at you.”\nAnother challenge is the high turnover, which is 140% a year for Tactical Growth. This means Uncle Sam takes a big cut in the good years. So if you buy Howard’s funds, you may want to do so in a tax-protected account.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".DJI":0.9,".IXIC":0.9,".SPX":0.9,"SPY":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":268,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":829496940,"gmtCreate":1633531411008,"gmtModify":1633531411151,"author":{"id":"4093596659918630","authorId":"4093596659918630","name":"Kslee3943","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90de15ce5511304affa25cca2ddef30b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4093596659918630","authorIdStr":"4093596659918630"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"good","listText":"good","text":"good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/829496940","repostId":"1132226534","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":521,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":860329186,"gmtCreate":1632138478145,"gmtModify":1632802609780,"author":{"id":"4093596659918630","authorId":"4093596659918630","name":"Kslee3943","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90de15ce5511304affa25cca2ddef30b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4093596659918630","authorIdStr":"4093596659918630"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good&nbsp;","listText":"Good&nbsp;","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/860329186","repostId":"2168502037","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":242,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":889512442,"gmtCreate":1631157716986,"gmtModify":1631890638171,"author":{"id":"4093596659918630","authorId":"4093596659918630","name":"Kslee3943","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90de15ce5511304affa25cca2ddef30b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4093596659918630","authorIdStr":"4093596659918630"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good&nbsp;","listText":"Good&nbsp;","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/889512442","repostId":"1143049851","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1143049851","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1631155210,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1143049851?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-09 10:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"New iPhones Are Coming.

However, the \"ice\" scenario is starting to look more likely, and could result in a more destructive outcome – i.e. a 20%+ correction. As a result, \n we continue to recommend a barbell of more defensively oriented quality (Healthcare and Staples) to protect from the \"ice\" scenario while keeping a leg in Financials to participate in the \"fire\" outcome as higher rates materialize.\n\nAnd just so it was clear that Wilson stubbornly refused to join the bullish bandwagon, he said that \"with our year end target 10% below current levels, our view is clear: the mid-cycle transition will end with the rolling correction finally hitting the S&P 500.\"\nFast forward to today when with stocks once again barreling higher, Wilson doubled down on his bearish view and in the latest Morgan Stanley strategy data pack, writes that \"we are now calling for Fire AND Ice.\"Here, he again recaps the two possible mid-cycle correction outcomes he had been envisioning:\n\nFire:tightening financial conditions as the Fed signals tapering is coming\nIce:growth disappointment particularly on the earnings side\n\nAnd so, in a reversal from what he said last month, Wilson now thinks\"it’s increasingly likely these scenarios happen together and we get a >10% correction.The Fed will likely announce its taper plans at its next FOMC meeting just as we expect a disappointment in earnings to materialize.\"\nAnd since much digital ink has been spilled discussing the impact of the coming taper, we will focus on his second warning, namely the coming trouble for corporate earnings, which echoes what we said more than a month ago...\n\n... and which Wilson distills simply as \"Earnings Trouble Ahead.\"\nHere, the strategist points to the large number of companies flagging serious supply chain issues in off-cycle earnings reports over the past month and notes that \"both forward earnings estimates and price de-rated after many of these reports.\"\n\nJumping to the punchline, Wilson thinks this will be a pervasive dynamic during 3Q reporting season and it will \"trigger downside in earnings revisions at the index level - a headwind for price.\"\n\nFinally, looking beyond 3Q, he sees the earnings risk coming more from(1) the inability of companies to pass on pricing (2) margin risk related more to higher wages and (3) a reversion (lower) in goods consumption.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".DJI":0.9,".IXIC":0.9,".SPX":0.9,"SPY":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1765,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":860329332,"gmtCreate":1632138451826,"gmtModify":1632802609901,"author":{"id":"4093596659918630","authorId":"4093596659918630","name":"Kslee3943","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90de15ce5511304affa25cca2ddef30b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4093596659918630","authorIdStr":"4093596659918630"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Latest&nbsp;","listText":"Latest&nbsp;","text":"Latest","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/860329332","repostId":"1133342003","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1133342003","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1632137392,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1133342003?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-20 19:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Developed World Boosters Offer Big Market for Eventual Novavax Vaccine","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1133342003","media":"Investorplace","summary":"NVAX stock looks like the next emerging biotech to grow significantly with post-vaccine launch.\n\nDes","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>NVAX stock looks like the next emerging biotech to grow significantly with post-vaccine launch.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Despite delays in obtaining approval for its Covid-19 vaccine,&nbsp;<b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVAX\">Novavax</a> </b>has a competitive edge compared to its peers.

The rally came despite concerns about the spread of the delta variant of the coronavirus and unease about the timetable for an eventual rollback of easy-money policies implemented by the Federal Reserve at the onset of the pandemic last year.</p>\n<p>On Monday, U.S. stock exchanges, including the Intercontinental Exchange Inc.&nbsp;-owned New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Inc.,will be closed, so don’t look for any action in individual stocks or indexes including the Dow Jones Industrial Average,&nbsp;S&amp;P 500&nbsp;or Nasdaq Composite indexes.</p>\n<p>The S&amp;P 500 has already notched 54 record closing highs in 2021 and was looking for its 55th on Friday, while the Nasdaq Composite&nbsp;was on track to book its 35th&nbsp;all-time high of the year. The Dow stood less than a percentage point from its Aug. 16 record, mid-afternoon Friday.</p>\n<p>Sifma, the securities-industry trade group for fixed-income, also has recommended the bond market close on Labor Day, including trading in the 10-year Treasury note,which was&nbsp;yielding around 1.33%&nbsp;after the U.S. August jobs report came in weaker than expected.</p>\n<p>However, the&nbsp;Labor Department’s employment report,which showed that&nbsp;235,000 jobs were created in August, far below expectations for more than 700,000, failed to dull expectations among sovereign debt investors for a near-term announcement of tapering of the Fed’s $120 billion in monthly purchases in Treasurys and mortgage-backed securities.</p>\n<p>Trading in most commodity futures, including Nymex crude-oil&nbsp;and Comex gold,on U.S. exchanges will also be halted Monday.</p>\n<p>Is there any significance to the holiday for average investors, besides the time off in the U.S. and the barbecues?</p>\n<p>Probably not.</p>\n<p>But the May Memorial Day to September Labor Day period in recent years has proven a bullish stretch one for investors, according to Dow Jones Market Data. The Dow, for example, is up by about 2% over that period and averages a gain of 1.3%, producing a winning record 65% of the time. The Dow is currently enjoying a win streak, over the past six Memorial Day/Labor Day periods, representing the longest win streak since 1989. Last year, the markets gained nearly 15% over that time.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f3f0f061a4ddd2ca31c53f8aa68e3cce\" tg-width=\"699\" tg-height=\"564\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>DOW JONES MARKET DATA</span></p>\n<p>The S&amp;P 500 is on a similar win streak and is up nearly 8% so far this Memorial Day-Labor Day period. It has risen more than 70% over that period in past years and averages a 1.7% gain. The broad-market index rose 16% during that time in 2020.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0c780a46e32d055feb3e3f5e10fc987f\" tg-width=\"699\" tg-height=\"564\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>DOW JONES MARKET DATA</span></p>\n<p>But if there is a bona fide trend in the Labor Day trading it may be this one that MarketWatch’s&nbsp;Steve Goldstein reports, quoting Raymond James strategist Tavis McCourt, who says that in the last two years, there was a big value and cyclical bias in stock markets after the holiday, and in 2018, markets basically collapsed after the summer drew to a close.</p>\n<p>It is impossible to know if the stock market rally will peter out similarly this time around but there is a growing sense on Wall Street that valuations are too lofty and equity indexes are due for a pullback of at least 5% or better from current heights.</p>\n<p>Markets will be back to business as usual on Tuesday and, of course, European bourses, including London’s FTSE 100&nbsp;index and the pan-European Stoxx Europe 600&nbsp;will be open on Monday, as well as Asian markets, the Nikkei 225,Hong Kong’s Hang Seng&nbsp;and the Shanghai Composite Index.</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The rally came despite concerns about the spread of the delta variant of the coronavirus and unease about the timetable for an eventual rollback of easy-money policies implemented by the Federal Reserve at the onset of the pandemic last year.\nOn Monday, U.S. stock exchanges, including the Intercontinental Exchange Inc. -owned New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Inc.,will be closed, so don’t look for any action in individual stocks or indexes including the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500 or Nasdaq Composite indexes.\nThe S&P 500 has already notched 54 record closing highs in 2021 and was looking for its 55th on Friday, while the Nasdaq Composite was on track to book its 35th all-time high of the year. The Dow stood less than a percentage point from its Aug. 16 record, mid-afternoon Friday.\nSifma, the securities-industry trade group for fixed-income, also has recommended the bond market close on Labor Day, including trading in the 10-year Treasury note,which was yielding around 1.33% after the U.S. August jobs report came in weaker than expected.\nHowever, the Labor Department’s employment report,which showed that 235,000 jobs were created in August, far below expectations for more than 700,000, failed to dull expectations among sovereign debt investors for a near-term announcement of tapering of the Fed’s $120 billion in monthly purchases in Treasurys and mortgage-backed securities.\nTrading in most commodity futures, including Nymex crude-oil and Comex gold,on U.S. exchanges will also be halted Monday.\nIs there any significance to the holiday for average investors, besides the time off in the U.S. and the barbecues?\nProbably not.\nBut the May Memorial Day to September Labor Day period in recent years has proven a bullish stretch one for investors, according to Dow Jones Market Data. The Dow, for example, is up by about 2% over that period and averages a gain of 1.3%, producing a winning record 65% of the time. The Dow is currently enjoying a win streak, over the past six Memorial Day/Labor Day periods, representing the longest win streak since 1989. Last year, the markets gained nearly 15% over that time.\nDOW JONES MARKET DATA\nThe S&P 500 is on a similar win streak and is up nearly 8% so far this Memorial Day-Labor Day period. It has risen more than 70% over that period in past years and averages a 1.7% gain. The broad-market index rose 16% during that time in 2020.\nDOW JONES MARKET DATA\nBut if there is a bona fide trend in the Labor Day trading it may be this one that MarketWatch’s Steve Goldstein reports, quoting Raymond James strategist Tavis McCourt, who says that in the last two years, there was a big value and cyclical bias in stock markets after the holiday, and in 2018, markets basically collapsed after the summer drew to a close.\nIt is impossible to know if the stock market rally will peter out similarly this time around but there is a growing sense on Wall Street that valuations are too lofty and equity indexes are due for a pullback of at least 5% or better from current heights.\nMarkets will be back to business as usual on Tuesday and, of course, European bourses, including London’s FTSE 100 index and the pan-European Stoxx Europe 600 will be open on Monday, as well as Asian markets, the Nikkei 225,Hong Kong’s Hang Seng and the Shanghai Composite Index.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".DJI":0.9,".IXIC":0.9,".SPX":0.9,"ICE":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":269,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":829492787,"gmtCreate":1633531550795,"gmtModify":1633531550936,"author":{"id":"4093596659918630","authorId":"4093596659918630","name":"Kslee3943","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90de15ce5511304affa25cca2ddef30b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4093596659918630","authorIdStr":"4093596659918630"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"good","listText":"good","text":"good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/829492787","repostId":"2173838910","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2173838910","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1633529160,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2173838910?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-10-06 22:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Here's How MongoDB Shares Gained 20% Last Month","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2173838910","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The database systems specialist crushed everybody's expectations in the second quarter.","content":"<h3>What happened</h3>\n<p>Shares of <b>MongoDB</b> (NASDAQ:MDB) rose 20.3% in September, according to data from S&amp;P Global Market Intelligence.
