Treasuries fell, the dollar was flat and bitcoin soared after tumbling on Tuesday.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/18d1c9474173cd7330d3db9b9ca247d3\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"292\">On Tuesday, Powell sought to reassure investors on Tuesday, saying that the central bank will watch a broad set of job market data to assess the economic recovery from COVID-19, rather than rush to raise rates on the basis of fear of inflation. New York Fed President John Williams echoed Powell, saying that a discussion about raising interest rates is still “way off in the future.”</p>\n<p></p>\n<p>“The market’s still digesting the Fed news,” said Mo Kazmi, portfolio manager and macro strategist at UBP. “I think a lot of that move was exacerbated by stretched positioning and now what we’re seeing is perhaps reflation trades being put back on and the market normalising to some extent, realising that for now it’s just a subtle shift from the Fed.”</p>\n<p>At 7:30 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were down 8 points, or 0.02%, S&amp;P 500 e-minis were down 4 points, or 0.1%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were down 21.25 points, or 0.10%. In early trading, energy stocks Occidental Petroleum, ConocoPhillips and Exxon Mobil gained about 1% as oil prices jumped to a more than two-year high. Among meme stocks, software firm Alfi Inc dropped 10.1% after more than doubling in value in the prior session, while Torchlight Energy Resources dropped in U.S. premarket trading, extending losses from Tuesday triggered by the Reddit-hyped oil explorer’s sale of $100 million in new shares. Stock declines as much as 13% after Tuesday’s 29% plunge. Xpeng ADRs climbed in U.S. premarket trading after the electric-vehicle maker is said to have received the green light from the Hong Kong stock exchange to list in the city. Cryptocurrency-exposed stocks also edged higher as Bitcoin recovered bigly after dipping below the $30,000 level in the prior session, and was currently trading around $34,100.

Luxury shares are down after analyst downgrades. Here are some of the biggest European movers today:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Pernod Ricard shares jump as much as 4.3% to a record high after the French distiller upgraded its full-year Ebit growth guidance more than anticipated, according to Jefferies.

Zur Rose Group falls as much as 5.8%</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Early European PMI data showed that<b>euro zone business growth accelerated at its fastest pace in 15 years in June</b>as the easing of more lockdown measures and the unleashing of pent-up demand drove a boom in the bloc’s dominant services industry.<b>The Euro area composite flash PMI increased by 2.1pt to 59.2 in June</b>, continuing to beat consensus expectations. In a reversal of the cross-country pattern from May, the area-wide improvement was led by Germany, with a softer-than-expected PMI in France but further gains in the periphery. In the UK, the composite PMI declined by more than expected but remained close to its all-time high from May.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Euro Area Composite PMI (June, Flash): 59.2, consensus 58.8, last 57.1.</li>\n <li>Germany Composite PMI (June, Flash): 60.4, consensus 57.6, last 56.2.</li>\n <li>France Composite PMI (June, Flash): 57.1, consensus 59.0, last 57.0.</li>\n <li>UK Composite PMI (June, Flash): 61.7, consensus 62.5, last 62.9.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d075640966c917461089bfe143810cbe\" tg-width=\"729\" tg-height=\"1541\"></p>\n<p>Germany’s private sector growth was also lifted to its highest level in more than a decade in June, the PMI survey showed. In France, business activity edged higher, but not as much as expected. In Britain, growth in the private sector cooled slightly from the all-time high hit in May, but inflation pressures faced by firms hit record levels. The Bank of England meets on Thursday.</p>\n<p>Berenberg economists Holger Schmieding and Kallum Pickering wrote in a note to clients that<b>the euro zone economy is likely to recover to its pre-pandemic level of GDP in Q4 2021, while for Britain it will be Q1 2022.</b></p>\n<p>UBP’s Kazmi said that he is positioned for higher yields in Europe, as it overtakes the United States in terms of vaccinations, lockdown easing and economic recovery from COVID-19.</p>\n<p>“It will be interesting to see if the German Bund can follow the U.S. rate move with yields moving higher in Europe – it is something that we think could happen,” he said. “The fact that the Fed has moved more hawkishly will allow the ECB to be more comfortable perhaps in moving more hawkish, or less dovish, over time.”</p>\n<p>Earlier in the session, Asian&nbsp;equities posted a modest advance, led by Hong Kong and Taiwan.<b>The MSCI&nbsp;Asia&nbsp;Pacific Index was up 0.3%, set for a second straight day of gains.</b>Property and IT shares climbed, offsetting a decline in consumer staples and industrial stocks. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index rose by the most in more than two months while Taiwan’s benchmark also jumped, driven by an advance in tech shares including Meituan, TSMC and MediaTek. The&nbsp;Asian&nbsp;measure’s mild move on Wednesday lies in contrast to its outsized swings in the past few sessions following the Fed’s hawkish pivot last week. Fed officials moved to clarify their stance this week, with Powell on Tuesday saying authorities would be patient in waiting to lift borrowing costs. “Powell is trying to calm the markets, and I think that should be a positive turn of pace through&nbsp;Asia,” said Gary Dugan, chief executive officer at Global CIO Office in Singapore. The current valuations of&nbsp;Asian&nbsp;stocks are “cheap,” he added. Japan stocks steadied after a wild two-day ride that saw the Nikkei 225 slump 3.3% on Monday and then recoup almost all those losses in the following session. Indonesia’s Jakarta Composite Index was the worst performer among major national benchmarks as the country struggles to contain the coronavirus outbreak.</p>\n<p>Japan’s Topix declined as the market attempted to settle following a dramatic swing over the past two days. Electronics and auto makers were the biggest drags on the benchmark, which fell 0.5%. The Nikkei 225 closed little changed, with Fast Retailing the largest support while Eisai dropped. The Topix slid 2.4% on Monday before rebounding 3.2% on Tuesday, as investors reassessed the rally in cyclical-heavy Japan since late 2020 amid concerns over inflation and the timing of interest-rake hikes. The blue-chip Nikkei 225 is currently hovering around 29,000, in the middle of the 2,000-point range in which it has traded for most of the year. “It’s likely for investors to be inclined to take profits whenever the Nikkei 225 tops the 29,000 mark,” said Shingo Ide, chief equity strategist at NLI Research Institute. “Still, local corporate earnings are likely to improve, meaning more companies will likely revise up their forecasts, so the downside will be firmly supported with people kicking in to buy when the Nikkei 225 falls below 29,000.”</p>\n<p>India’s benchmark equity index declined the most in two weeks, dragged by Reliance Industries after struggling for direction during the day.&nbsp; Out of 30 shares in the Sensex index, 8 rose, while 22 fell. Sixteen of the 19 sector indexes compiled by BSE Ltd. tumbled, with a measure of oil and gas companies leading the losers. Stocks swung between gains and losses several times through the session against the backdrop of a steady ramp up in coronavirus vaccinations and the reassurance of policy support from the U.S Federal Reserve. The S&amp;P BSE Sensex closed down 0.5%, with the NSE Nifty 50 Index falling by a similar magnitude. “Nifty continues to witness selling pressure at higher levels,” Manish Hathiramani, technical analyst at Deen Dayal Investments said in a note. “A buy-on-dips approach would be the most prudent way to trade this market.” Reliance Industries Ltd. was the biggest drag on both indexes, falling 0.9%. The nation’s largest company by market capitalization will hold its annual general meeting on Thursday.</p>\n<p>In rates, Treasuries were slightly cheaper and the yield curve is steeper, with 10-year yields at around 1.477%, cheaper by 1bp. The long end steepened the 5s30s curve by more than 1bp, although the spread at close to 124.2bp it remains inside Tuesday’s range. The Asian session saw light volumes and low activity, while open interest points to a continued unwinding of positions into the ongoing Treasuries bear steepening move. Treasury auctions continue Wednesday with a $61b 5-year note sale at 1pm ET; offering follows a soft 2-year sale on Tuesday. In Europe, Bund futures are just off session highs having traded at -0.176%. Peripheral spreads tighten to core, 10y Bund/BTP spread narrows ~2bps.</p>\n<p>In FX, the Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index hovered around its 200-day moving average as it gave up an earlier advance when the euro erased losses following better-than-forecast PMIs out of Germany and the euro-zone. The greenback was mixed versus its Group-of-10 peers though most currencies traded in more confined ranges compared to moves over the past week. The krone advanced as oil prices rose after an industry report pointed to another decline in U.S. crude stockpiles. The pound swung between modest losses and gains against the dollar, as investors positioned for a potentially more hawkish tone from the Bank of England at its Thursday decision. Options show the pound may stay above recent lows even if the BOE makes a case for selling pressure. Australian and New Zealand dollars reversed an Asia-session loss, even as Covid-19 restrictions were tightened in both nations. The yen fell toward its lowest level in more than a year as sentiment got a boost after Federal Reserve officials said interest rates are unlikely to rise anytime soon.</p>\n<p>In commodities, Brent crude oil futures rose above $75 a barrel, their highest in more than two years, after an industry report pointed to another decline in U.S. crude stockpiles.</p>\n<p>Elsewhere, bitcoin was up around 5% on the day, above the $34,000 mark. The cryptocurrency dropped to as low as $28,600 on Tuesday - its lowest since January. Ether was trading around $2,000.</p>\n<p>The U.S. is set to report new home sales in May on Wednesday. The data “is unlikely to offer any major surprises,” Kaia Parv, head of investment research at FXPRIMUS, wrote in emailed comments. “These figures should mimic the trend of rolling off as we saw with existing home sales earlier this week.”</p>\n<p>To the day ahead now, data releases include US new home sales for May, while from central banks, we’ll hear from ECB President Lagarde, Vice President de Guindos, and the Fed’s Bowman, Bostic and Rosengren.</p>\n<p><b>Market Snapshot</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>S&amp;P 500 futures up 0.1% to 4,240.50</li>\n <li>STOXX Europe 600 down 0.1% to 455.92</li>\n <li>MXAP up 0.4% to 206.75</li>\n <li>MXAPJ up 0.9% to 693.70</li>\n <li>Nikkei little changed at 28,874.89</li>\n <li>Topix down 0.5% to 1,949.14</li>\n <li>Hang Seng Index up 1.8% to 28,817.07</li>\n <li>Shanghai Composite up 0.2% to 3,566.22</li>\n <li>Sensex little changed at 52,613.89</li>\n <li>Australia S&amp;P/ASX 200 down 0.6% to 7,298.45</li>\n <li>Kospi up 0.4% to 3,276.19</li>\n <li>Brent Futures up 0.9% to $75.50/bbl</li>\n <li>Gold spot up 0.3% to $1,783.78</li>\n <li>U.S. Dollar Index little changed at 91.71</li>\n <li>German 10Y yield fell 0.4 bps to -0.167%</li>\n <li>Euro little changed at $1.1941</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Top Overnight News from Bloomberg</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Chancellor Angela Merkel’s cabinet approved plans to increase borrowing by 99.7 billion euros ($119 billion) next year to help finance Germany’s pandemic response</li>\n <li>IHS Markit said its key index of activity in the U.K. was only slightly below the record posted in May, with firms responding to rising workloads by taking on staff at the fastest pace since it began collecting data in 1998; output-price inflation hit a new record as firms passed on higher costs to customers</li>\n <li>“In the second quarter of the year as well as in the second half of the year, we expect very significant growth in the euro-area,” ECB Vice President Luis de Guindos said in online event</li>\n <li>Treasury moves have been large post- Fed, but changes in curvature have been historically extreme.

US equity futures held a mild upside bias - the NQ (+0.2%), ES (+0.1%), RTY (+0.1%), and YM (+0.1%) all saw modest broad-based gains ahead of the next raft of Fed speakers. ASX 200 (-0.4%) was pressured as the gains across its mining, telecoms, and tech stocks failed to offset the losses in the Financials and Healthcare sectors. The Nikkei 225 (Unch) briefly topped 29k as the softer currency underpinned the exporter-heavy index. The KOSPI (+0.4%) remained cautious as tensions between Washington and Pyongyang simmered in the background. The Hang Seng (+1.6%) was bolstered by gains across its large-cap oil and financial stocks, whilst the Shanghai Comp (+0.5%) was contained, with friction reported in the Taiwanese Strait after a US destroyer sailed through the waters in what was seen as a sign of provocation in Beijing. Finally, JGB futures are relatively flat as it tracks price action across UST futures.</p>\n<p><b><i>Top Asian News</i></b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>China, U.S. May Hold Diplomatic Talks Next Week, FT Reports</li>\n <li>Australian Law Could Force Facebook, Google to Strip Content</li>\n <li>Monthly Bargain Days Boost Southeast Asia’s Online Spending</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>European equities (Stoxx 600 -0.5%) painted a relatively mixed picture at the start of the session with initial pressure seemingly stemming from misses across the board on French flash PMIs for June</b>. A better-than-expected report from Germany and the Eurozone was unable to help revive sentiment with the Stoxx 600 unable to surmount the index’s record high of 460.5 posted on June 14th. As the morning progressed the initial equity pressure has picked up with fresh catalysts slim though cash bourses remain somewhat mixed as the FTSE 100, for instance, benefits from mining strength. Separately, analysts at JP Morgan note that Europe is currently experiencing a faster pace of upgrades than any other region and still has room to continue its uptrend vs. the US. Stateside, futures trade largely unchanged ahead of the US entrance to market with no real bias towards growth/value. From a sectoral standpoint, Oil &amp; Gas names sit at the top of the leaderboard with Brent crude rising to its best level since October 2018. Basic Resources are also performing well with BHP (+0.8%) a notable gainer in the sector after being upgraded to overweight from equal weight at Morgan Stanley. While Pernod Ricard (+2.4%) is currently the biggest gainer in the Stoxx 600 after raising guidance amid a stronger than expected recovery from the pandemic. At the other end of the spectrum, Luxury names have been in focus after a slew of broker moves at HSBC which has sent the likes of Kering (-3.0%), Hermes (-1.9%) and Burberry (-0.2%) lower.</p>\n<p><i>Top European News</i></p>\n<ul>\n <li>U.K. Poised to Ease Travel Curbs as Airlines Step Up Demands</li>\n <li>London Looks Past Brexit to Eclipse Rivals in Emerging Markets</li>\n <li>Private Equity Faces Off Hedge Fund Shorts in Bid for U.K. Plc</li>\n <li>Londoners Snap Up Luxury Homes as Rich Foreigners Are Locked Out</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>In FX,</b>a stellar start to Wednesday’s session for Sterling amidst reports of optimism on both sides of the NI protocol divide that a stop-gap solution can be found to the trade spat, while the Pound also scaled several chart and psychological hurdles vs the Dollar and Euro respectively that have been capping upside momentum. Specifically, the 100 DMA at 1.3944 and yesterday’s 1.3963 high that aligns with a Fib retracement (38.2% of the retreat from 1.4250 peak on June 1st to this Monday’s 1.3787 low) were all breached to expose 1.4000 in Cable, and Eur/Gbp crossed 0.8550 to the downside on the way to a circa 0.8530 multi-month low before bouncing in wake of somewhat contrasting flash UK PMIs. Conversely, the Yen’s fortunes are going from bad to worse it seems as Usd/Jpy has now surpassed 111.00 inching beyond prior YTD peaks and now eyeing 111.10, with reports that the Japanese Government is thinking about tightening regulations regarding foreign investment in important tech firms hardly helping.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>USD - Aside from Yen underperformance and a fragile Franc (latter still straddling 0.9200), the Greenback is gradually losing more of its post-FOMC vigour vs G10 peers and EM counterparts. Indeed, the DXY is slipping further from 92.000 having already retreated into another lower range from last week’s peak (92.408), and in tech terms closing below a Fib support level for the 2nd consecutive day following a round of Fed speak offering a less hawkish/more dovish spin compared to Monday. However, the index is holding just above yesterday’s 91.643 trough, for now, within a 91.900-682 band awaiting more US housing data, Markit’s prelim PMIs and the next batch of Fed officials, including Bowman, Bostic and Rosengren.</li>\n <li>NZD/AUD - The Kiwi and Aussie have both recovered well from overnight lows just under 0.7000 and sub-0.7550 against their US rival irrespective of latest COVID-19 outbreaks in Wellington and NSW that prompted NZ to lift the capital’s alert status to level 2 and the state premier to announce new restrictions for hotspots including Sydney. Nzd/Usd is back up near 0.7050 and Aud/Usd is eyeing 0.7575 having cleared the 200 DMA (0.7560) with some belated assistance perhaps via the CBA revising its RBA outlook markedly (the bank now anticipates a hike in November 2022 vs 2024 previously).</li>\n <li>CAD/EUR - Another and firmer rebound in oil prices has helped the Loonie pare more of its recent losses to probe resistance offers through 1.2300 in the run up to Canadian retail sales, while mostly better than expected Eurozone flash PMIs (after an initial French scare) are contributing to the Euro’s efforts to stay comfortably afloat of 1.1900.</li>\n <li>SCANDI/EM - Brent’s bounce beyond Usd 75/brl alongside WTI on the back of bullish private crude inventory data is boosting the Nok, Rub and Mxn, while the Sek is deriving some underlying support from a sharp upgrade to this year’s GDP estimate from the Swedish Finance Ministry and the Try is taking remarks from the CBRT about protecting the Lira at face value. Elsewhere, the Zar has shrugged off slightly weaker than forecast SA core CPI against the backdrop of relative stability in Gold, but the Cnh and Cny remain on a weaker footing in line with PBoC fixings.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>In commodities,</b>aslower session for the crude complex in terms of newsflow updates after yesterday’s multiple source reports relating to OPEC+ potentially considering increasing production and the benchmarks are now back at prices near/above yesterday’s best levels. Specifically, WTI and Brent August’21 contracts post gains of ~1.0% on the session at the top end of a USD 1/bbl range for Brent which is now trading in the mid USD 75.50/bbl region. Focus this morning has been on yesterday’s bullish private inventory report, particularly referencing the headline crude figure which posted a draw of -7.2mln vs exp. -3.9mln, ahead of the EIA release due later today. Elsewhere, geopolitical development has seen outgoing Iranian President Rouhani’s Chief of Staff announced that parties in Vienna have agreed to lift economic sanctions on Iran; however, Rouhani is the outgoing President so it remains to be seen how relations will transfer and develop when Raisi, who has already refused a President Biden meeting, takes over. Subsequently, Germany’s Foreign Minister says that there are still some issues but acknowledges progress has been made on the nuclear talks. Moving to metals, spot gold and silver have been very contained throughout the morning though modestly firmer on the session taking advantage of USD pressure. For base metals attention remains firmly on the action of China whose State Planner has sent teams to begin investigation commodity pricing and supply. Nonetheless, the likes of platinum, palladium and LME copper remain firmer on the session.</p>\n<p><b>US Event Calendar</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>8:30am: 1Q Current Account Balance, est. -$206.2b, prior -$188.5b</li>\n <li>9:45am: June Markit US Services PMI, est. 70.0, prior 70.4</li>\n <li>9:45am: June Markit US Manufacturing PMI, est. 61.5, prior 62.1</li>\n <li>10am: May New Home Sales, est. 865,000, prior 863,000; MoM, est. 0.2%, prior -5.9%;</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>DB's Jim Reid concludes the overnight wrap</b></p>\n<p>5 years ago today we saw the U.K. vote for Brexit. Since this day, Sterling is -6.24% vs the Dollar and +4.87% vs the Euro, 10yr gilts have rallied -59bps (10yr Treasuries and Bunds have rallied -28bps and -26bps for context) and the FTSE is +11.9% (S&amp;P 500 + 100.9% and Stoxx 600 +31.8%). Those who believe it was a bad idea continue to feel as strongly as ever and those who believe it was a good idea also share the same convictions. My only comment is that I can’t believe how quickly five years has gone.</p>\n<p>I wonder what we’ll be saying about the Fed actions in recent weeks in five years time? For now calming remarks from Fed officials meant that risk assets have now regained their poise after last week’s FOMC wobble. Before the numerous Fed speakers, even 10yr US yields briefly traded higher than their pre-FOMC levels (European bonds closed above). However a steady but notable bond rally started with the Fed commentary which in turn helped equity markets power ahead.</p>\n<p>The early speakers indeed helped set the tone with New York Fed President Williams reassuring markets that rates hikes were “still way off in the future”, while Cleveland Fed President Mester (a non-voter this year) said that they weren’t at a point to dial back accommodation, but that it may come under consideration this Autumn.</p>\n<p>Fed Chair Powell later testified before the House of Representatives’ Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis. The Chair received numerous questions on inflation and the Fed’s role and ability to curtail it. Chair Powell stuck to the script that, “a pretty substantial part, or perhaps all of the overshoot in inflation comes from categories that are directly affected by the re-opening of the economy such as used cars and trucks.” However as he mentioned last week, that view requires some level of humility and he acknowledged that those price “effects have been larger than we expected and they may turn out to be more persistent than we expected.” Powell also noted that the FOMC “will wait for actual evidence of actual inflation or other imbalances” before moving rates higher and not react to projections. The S&amp;P 500 rose about 0.35% during the testimony before moderating a bit into the close, while US 10yr treasury yields fell another -1.5bps having rallied with the earlier Fed speak.</p>\n<p>Running through the moves in response, US equities continued to advance as the S&amp;P 500 (+0.51%) moved to within just quarter of a per cent of last week’s all-time closing high, whilst the VIX index of volatility fell a further -1.2pts as it subsided from its own recent high on Friday. New records were also set, with the NASDAQ (+0.79%) hitting a new record as tech stocks continued to power ahead, though small-cap stocks fared less well with the Russell 2000 closing up +0.43%. The US equity rally was fairly broad based with 18 of 24 industry groups gaining with a mix of technology and cyclicals stocks amongst the best performers. In fact the only two industries that fell over -0.25% yesterday were the defensive, bond-proxies real estate (-0.44%) and utilities (-0.68%). There were similar advances in Europe too, where the STOXX 600 (+0.26%), the FTSE 100 (+0.39%) and the DAX (+0.21%) all moved higher on the day.</p>\n<p>For US Treasuries, yesterday saw a further steepening in the yield curve, albeit small, with the 2s10s (+0.1bps) and the 5s30s (+0.9bps) both moving higher. That was driven by a rally at the front end, with 2yr yields moving down -2.6bps on the day to 0.228%, whereas 30yr yields were down -2.4bps to 2.09%. We also saw a 2nd day running of higher inflation expectations, with the 10yr breakeven up +4.2bps to 2.32%, which brings its rise over the last 2 sessions to +8.2bps, although lower real yields helped the 10yr Treasury yield to move -2.5bps lower on the day, closing at 1.463%. At the day’s highs (1.507%) 10yr yields were actually +2.3bps higher that just before the FOMC announcement and 30yr yields (2.147%) were just -3bps lower than their pre-FOMC levels. At those intraday highs, the respective bonds were +15.5bps and +22.1bps higher than their Monday morning Asian yields lows. So a wild swing but markets are slowly getting acclimatised to the fact that the Fed didn’t say anything that outlandish last week. They just caught up closer to reality. For Europe it was a slightly different picture however, as 10yr yields on bunds (+0.7bps), OATs (+0.3bps) an BTPs (+2.2bps) all rose on the day.</p>\n<p>Asian markets are largely posting gains this morning with the Nikkei (+0.07%), Hang Seng (+1.46%), Shanghai Comp (+0.46%) and Kospi (+0.38%) all up. Futures on the S&amp;P 500 are also up +0.14% while the dollar index is up +0.11% in early trade today. Elsewhere, commodity prices are mostly trading up with DCE iron ore (+4.17%), Copper (+1.00%), SHF steel rebar (+2.12%) and oil prices (c. 0.50%) all higher. Treasury yields are broadly flat.</p>\n<p>Looking ahead, the main highlight today will be the release of the flash PMIs for June. Back in May, the final numbers showed that growth was still maintaining decent momentum, with the Euro Area composite PMI coming in at 57.1, the strongest in over 3 years, while the US composite PMI was at 68.7, which is the strongest since the data goes back to in October 2009. Price pressures will be scrutinised and it’s possible the recent commodity dip will ease input prices even if supply chain issues still remain. Overnight, we’ve already had the numbers in from Japan and Australia, which showed Japan’s preliminary manufacturing PMI softening to 51.5 from 53.0 last month while the services reading improved to 47.2 from 46.5. Australia’s manufacturing PMI also softened to 58.4 (vs. 60.4 last month), the same trend as the Services PMI which came in at 56.0 (vs. 58.0 last month).</p>\n<p>While Bitcoin ended the session up +0.98% at $32,903, at one point the cryptocurrency fell beneath $30,000 in trading for the first time since late January. The cryptocurrency is on track for its 3rd successive monthly decline now, and given it started the year at $28,996 it’s not too far away from having erased its entire YTD gains (it did intra-day), after peaking at an intra-day high of $64,870 back on April 14. So in spite of being all the rage during its ascent in Q1, you’d actually have better YTD returns right now from the mast majority of traditional assets in our monthly performance review suite.</p>\n<p>In terms of the latest on the pandemic, there were signs that border restrictions could still be around in 2022 after Dow Jones reported that China would keep its pandemic border restrictions for at least another year, according to those familiar with the matter. Separately in the UK there was continued concern about the spread of the delta variant, as yesterday saw the 7-day average of new cases surpass 10,000 for the first time since February. That said, the one good piece of news is that the latest wave has seen the age distribution of cases shift substantially lower relative to previous waves, and younger groups are much less likely to be severely affected by the virus relative to older groups.</p>\n<p>Concerns around the spread of the delta variant has also led to Wellington, capital city of New Zealand, raising its alert level to 2, a step below a lockdown while in Australia, Sydney has decided to impose new restrictions, including compulsory mask-wearing at all indoor venues such as workplaces and shops to control the outbreak. Taiwan has also decided to extend its soft lockdown by another two weeks to June 28. Elsewhere, the White House noted that the US is unlikely to reach 70% of adults with at least one shot by July 4th, however they are likely to get to 70% of all those over the age of 27 by the holiday.</p>\n<p>Looking at yesterday’s data, US existing home sales fell to an annualised rate of 5.80m in May (vs. 5.73m expected), marking the 4th consecutive monthly decline. Separately, the Richmond Fed’s manufacturing survey for June saw the composite index rise to 22 (vs. 18 expected). And over in Europe, the European Commission’s advance consumer confidence reading for the Euro Area in June rose to -3.3 (vs. -3.1 expected), which is its highest level since January 2018.</p>\n<p>To the day ahead now, and the aforementioned flash PMIs for June will likely be the main highlight. Otherwise, data releases include US new home sales for May, while from central banks, we’ll hear from ECB President Lagarde, Vice President de Guindos, and the Fed’s Bowman, Bostic and Rosengren.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Futures Flat As Traders Wait For Next Green Light From Fed</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\">\nFutures Flat As Traders Wait For Next Green Light From Fed\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-23 20:13 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/futures-flat-traders-wait-next-green-light-fed><strong>zerohedge</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>S&P 500 futures erased earlier gains, and after rising as much as 0.3% when they traded at all time highs, Eminis were last seen down 4 points or 0.1% to 4,232, as European stocks also struggled to ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/futures-flat-traders-wait-next-green-light-fed\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{},"source_url":"https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/futures-flat-traders-wait-next-green-light-fed","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1124251862","content_text":"S&P 500 futures erased earlier gains, and after rising as much as 0.3% when they traded at all time highs, Eminis were last seen down 4 points or 0.1% to 4,232, as European stocks also struggled to gain momentum on Wednesday despite reassurances from U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell that the Fed is not rushing to hike rates contrary to the market's post-FOMC freakout last week. Treasuries fell, the dollar was flat and bitcoin soared after tumbling on Tuesday.\nOn Tuesday, Powell sought to reassure investors on Tuesday, saying that the central bank will watch a broad set of job market data to assess the economic recovery from COVID-19, rather than rush to raise rates on the basis of fear of inflation. New York Fed President John Williams echoed Powell, saying that a discussion about raising interest rates is still “way off in the future.”\n\n“The market’s still digesting the Fed news,” said Mo Kazmi, portfolio manager and macro strategist at UBP. “I think a lot of that move was exacerbated by stretched positioning and now what we’re seeing is perhaps reflation trades being put back on and the market normalising to some extent, realising that for now it’s just a subtle shift from the Fed.”\nAt 7:30 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were down 8 points, or 0.02%, S&P 500 e-minis were down 4 points, or 0.1%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were down 21.25 points, or 0.10%. In early trading, energy stocks Occidental Petroleum, ConocoPhillips and Exxon Mobil gained about 1% as oil prices jumped to a more than two-year high. Among meme stocks, software firm Alfi Inc dropped 10.1% after more than doubling in value in the prior session, while Torchlight Energy Resources dropped in U.S. premarket trading, extending losses from Tuesday triggered by the Reddit-hyped oil explorer’s sale of $100 million in new shares. Stock declines as much as 13% after Tuesday’s 29% plunge. Xpeng ADRs climbed in U.S. premarket trading after the electric-vehicle maker is said to have received the green light from the Hong Kong stock exchange to list in the city. Cryptocurrency-exposed stocks also edged higher as Bitcoin recovered bigly after dipping below the $30,000 level in the prior session, and was currently trading around $34,100. Here are some of the biggest U.S. movers today:\n\nCryptocurrency-exposed stocks edge higher in premarket trading following a volatile day for digital assets on Tuesday. Riot Blockchain (RIOT) climbs 2.4% and Marathon Digital (MARA) rises 2.3%, while Bit Digital (BTBT) gains 3.1%.\nGemini Therapeutics (GMTX) slumps 30%, extending postmarket losses, after the company announced initial data from its Phase 2a ReGAtta study of GEM103 in patients with geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to dry age-related macular degeneration. Jefferies said the stock was oversold in postmarket trading and the data was “encouraging but early.”\nXpeng ADRs (XPEV) rise 4.7% after the electric-vehicle maker is said to have received the green light from the Hong Kong stock exchange to list in the city. Peer Li Auto (LI) rises 2.4%, while Nio (NIO) gains 2.1%.\n\nThe MSCI world equity index was up 0.1% on the day at 1101 GMT, having recovered from the one-month low it hit in the aftermath of the Fed’s meeting.\nIn Europe, the Stoxx 600 Index fell as much as 0.5% to a session low, with travel and leisure and retail shares underperforming the most.  All sectors in the red except energy and mining shares. Luxury shares are down after analyst downgrades. Here are some of the biggest European movers today:\n\nPernod Ricard shares jump as much as 4.3% to a record high after the French distiller upgraded its full-year Ebit growth guidance more than anticipated, according to Jefferies. Peers also advance: Diageo gains as much as 2%, Remy Cointreau +1.5% and Campari +1.2%\nAbivax climbs as much as 15% to the highest since Feb. 16 following positive data from clinical trials of its rheumatoid arthritis drug.\nBank of Ireland drops as much as 6.4% to the lowest since April 21 after the Irish government said it will sell part of its stake in the lender.\nKering slips as much as 3.1% after HSBC downgraded luxury- goods stocks and said investors may “take a break” from names trading close to record valuations. Peers also fall: Hermes drops as much as 2.5%, LVMH -1.8%, Richemont -2.2%, Burberry -2.3%\nShop Apotheke Europe drops as much as 5.1% after Metzler downgraded the stock to hold from buy, with analyst Tom Diedrich saying the latest news flow on e-prescriptions could dampen market optimism. Zur Rose Group falls as much as 5.8%\n\nEarly European PMI data showed thateuro zone business growth accelerated at its fastest pace in 15 years in Juneas the easing of more lockdown measures and the unleashing of pent-up demand drove a boom in the bloc’s dominant services industry.The Euro area composite flash PMI increased by 2.1pt to 59.2 in June, continuing to beat consensus expectations. In a reversal of the cross-country pattern from May, the area-wide improvement was led by Germany, with a softer-than-expected PMI in France but further gains in the periphery. In the UK, the composite PMI declined by more than expected but remained close to its all-time high from May.\n\nEuro Area Composite PMI (June, Flash): 59.2, consensus 58.8, last 57.1.\nGermany Composite PMI (June, Flash): 60.4, consensus 57.6, last 56.2.\nFrance Composite PMI (June, Flash): 57.1, consensus 59.0, last 57.0.\nUK Composite PMI (June, Flash): 61.7, consensus 62.5, last 62.9.\n\n\nGermany’s private sector growth was also lifted to its highest level in more than a decade in June, the PMI survey showed. In France, business activity edged higher, but not as much as expected. In Britain, growth in the private sector cooled slightly from the all-time high hit in May, but inflation pressures faced by firms hit record levels. The Bank of England meets on Thursday.\nBerenberg economists Holger Schmieding and Kallum Pickering wrote in a note to clients thatthe euro zone economy is likely to recover to its pre-pandemic level of GDP in Q4 2021, while for Britain it will be Q1 2022.\nUBP’s Kazmi said that he is positioned for higher yields in Europe, as it overtakes the United States in terms of vaccinations, lockdown easing and economic recovery from COVID-19.\n“It will be interesting to see if the German Bund can follow the U.S. rate move with yields moving higher in Europe – it is something that we think could happen,” he said. “The fact that the Fed has moved more hawkishly will allow the ECB to be more comfortable perhaps in moving more hawkish, or less dovish, over time.”\nEarlier in the session, Asian equities posted a modest advance, led by Hong Kong and Taiwan.The MSCI Asia Pacific Index was up 0.3%, set for a second straight day of gains.Property and IT shares climbed, offsetting a decline in consumer staples and industrial stocks. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index rose by the most in more than two months while Taiwan’s benchmark also jumped, driven by an advance in tech shares including Meituan, TSMC and MediaTek. The Asian measure’s mild move on Wednesday lies in contrast to its outsized swings in the past few sessions following the Fed’s hawkish pivot last week. Fed officials moved to clarify their stance this week, with Powell on Tuesday saying authorities would be patient in waiting to lift borrowing costs. “Powell is trying to calm the markets, and I think that should be a positive turn of pace through Asia,” said Gary Dugan, chief executive officer at Global CIO Office in Singapore. The current valuations of Asian stocks are “cheap,” he added. Japan stocks steadied after a wild two-day ride that saw the Nikkei 225 slump 3.3% on Monday and then recoup almost all those losses in the following session. Indonesia’s Jakarta Composite Index was the worst performer among major national benchmarks as the country struggles to contain the coronavirus outbreak.\nJapan’s Topix declined as the market attempted to settle following a dramatic swing over the past two days. Electronics and auto makers were the biggest drags on the benchmark, which fell 0.5%. The Nikkei 225 closed little changed, with Fast Retailing the largest support while Eisai dropped. The Topix slid 2.4% on Monday before rebounding 3.2% on Tuesday, as investors reassessed the rally in cyclical-heavy Japan since late 2020 amid concerns over inflation and the timing of interest-rake hikes. The blue-chip Nikkei 225 is currently hovering around 29,000, in the middle of the 2,000-point range in which it has traded for most of the year. “It’s likely for investors to be inclined to take profits whenever the Nikkei 225 tops the 29,000 mark,” said Shingo Ide, chief equity strategist at NLI Research Institute. “Still, local corporate earnings are likely to improve, meaning more companies will likely revise up their forecasts, so the downside will be firmly supported with people kicking in to buy when the Nikkei 225 falls below 29,000.”\nIndia’s benchmark equity index declined the most in two weeks, dragged by Reliance Industries after struggling for direction during the day.  Out of 30 shares in the Sensex index, 8 rose, while 22 fell. Sixteen of the 19 sector indexes compiled by BSE Ltd. tumbled, with a measure of oil and gas companies leading the losers. Stocks swung between gains and losses several times through the session against the backdrop of a steady ramp up in coronavirus vaccinations and the reassurance of policy support from the U.S Federal Reserve. The S&P BSE Sensex closed down 0.5%, with the NSE Nifty 50 Index falling by a similar magnitude. “Nifty continues to witness selling pressure at higher levels,” Manish Hathiramani, technical analyst at Deen Dayal Investments said in a note. “A buy-on-dips approach would be the most prudent way to trade this market.” Reliance Industries Ltd. was the biggest drag on both indexes, falling 0.9%. The nation’s largest company by market capitalization will hold its annual general meeting on Thursday.\nIn rates, Treasuries were slightly cheaper and the yield curve is steeper, with 10-year yields at around 1.477%, cheaper by 1bp. The long end steepened the 5s30s curve by more than 1bp, although the spread at close to 124.2bp it remains inside Tuesday’s range. The Asian session saw light volumes and low activity, while open interest points to a continued unwinding of positions into the ongoing Treasuries bear steepening move. Treasury auctions continue Wednesday with a $61b 5-year note sale at 1pm ET; offering follows a soft 2-year sale on Tuesday. In Europe, Bund futures are just off session highs having traded at -0.176%. Peripheral spreads tighten to core, 10y Bund/BTP spread narrows ~2bps.\nIn FX, the Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index hovered around its 200-day moving average as it gave up an earlier advance when the euro erased losses following better-than-forecast PMIs out of Germany and the euro-zone. The greenback was mixed versus its Group-of-10 peers though most currencies traded in more confined ranges compared to moves over the past week. The krone advanced as oil prices rose after an industry report pointed to another decline in U.S. crude stockpiles. The pound swung between modest losses and gains against the dollar, as investors positioned for a potentially more hawkish tone from the Bank of England at its Thursday decision. Options show the pound may stay above recent lows even if the BOE makes a case for selling pressure. Australian and New Zealand dollars reversed an Asia-session loss, even as Covid-19 restrictions were tightened in both nations. The yen fell toward its lowest level in more than a year as sentiment got a boost after Federal Reserve officials said interest rates are unlikely to rise anytime soon.\nIn commodities, Brent crude oil futures rose above $75 a barrel, their highest in more than two years, after an industry report pointed to another decline in U.S. crude stockpiles.\nElsewhere, bitcoin was up around 5% on the day, above the $34,000 mark. The cryptocurrency dropped to as low as $28,600 on Tuesday - its lowest since January. Ether was trading around $2,000.\nThe U.S. is set to report new home sales in May on Wednesday.

US equity futures held a mild upside bias - the NQ (+0.2%), ES (+0.1%), RTY (+0.1%), and YM (+0.1%) all saw modest broad-based gains ahead of the next raft of Fed speakers. ASX 200 (-0.4%) was pressured as the gains across its mining, telecoms, and tech stocks failed to offset the losses in the Financials and Healthcare sectors. The Nikkei 225 (Unch) briefly topped 29k as the softer currency underpinned the exporter-heavy index. The KOSPI (+0.4%) remained cautious as tensions between Washington and Pyongyang simmered in the background. The Hang Seng (+1.6%) was bolstered by gains across its large-cap oil and financial stocks, whilst the Shanghai Comp (+0.5%) was contained, with friction reported in the Taiwanese Strait after a US destroyer sailed through the waters in what was seen as a sign of provocation in Beijing. Finally, JGB futures are relatively flat as it tracks price action across UST futures.\nTop Asian News\n\nChina, U.S. May Hold Diplomatic Talks Next Week, FT Reports\nAustralian Law Could Force Facebook, Google to Strip Content\nMonthly Bargain Days Boost Southeast Asia’s Online Spending\n\nEuropean equities (Stoxx 600 -0.5%) painted a relatively mixed picture at the start of the session with initial pressure seemingly stemming from misses across the board on French flash PMIs for June. A better-than-expected report from Germany and the Eurozone was unable to help revive sentiment with the Stoxx 600 unable to surmount the index’s record high of 460.5 posted on June 14th. As the morning progressed the initial equity pressure has picked up with fresh catalysts slim though cash bourses remain somewhat mixed as the FTSE 100, for instance, benefits from mining strength. Separately, analysts at JP Morgan note that Europe is currently experiencing a faster pace of upgrades than any other region and still has room to continue its uptrend vs. the US. Stateside, futures trade largely unchanged ahead of the US entrance to market with no real bias towards growth/value. From a sectoral standpoint, Oil & Gas names sit at the top of the leaderboard with Brent crude rising to its best level since October 2018. Basic Resources are also performing well with BHP (+0.8%) a notable gainer in the sector after being upgraded to overweight from equal weight at Morgan Stanley. While Pernod Ricard (+2.4%) is currently the biggest gainer in the Stoxx 600 after raising guidance amid a stronger than expected recovery from the pandemic. At the other end of the spectrum, Luxury names have been in focus after a slew of broker moves at HSBC which has sent the likes of Kering (-3.0%), Hermes (-1.9%) and Burberry (-0.2%) lower.\nTop European News\n\nU.K. Poised to Ease Travel Curbs as Airlines Step Up Demands\nLondon Looks Past Brexit to Eclipse Rivals in Emerging Markets\nPrivate Equity Faces Off Hedge Fund Shorts in Bid for U.K. Plc\nLondoners Snap Up Luxury Homes as Rich Foreigners Are Locked Out\n\nIn FX,a stellar start to Wednesday’s session for Sterling amidst reports of optimism on both sides of the NI protocol divide that a stop-gap solution can be found to the trade spat, while the Pound also scaled several chart and psychological hurdles vs the Dollar and Euro respectively that have been capping upside momentum. Specifically, the 100 DMA at 1.3944 and yesterday’s 1.3963 high that aligns with a Fib retracement (38.2% of the retreat from 1.4250 peak on June 1st to this Monday’s 1.3787 low) were all breached to expose 1.4000 in Cable, and Eur/Gbp crossed 0.8550 to the downside on the way to a circa 0.8530 multi-month low before bouncing in wake of somewhat contrasting flash UK PMIs. Conversely, the Yen’s fortunes are going from bad to worse it seems as Usd/Jpy has now surpassed 111.00 inching beyond prior YTD peaks and now eyeing 111.10, with reports that the Japanese Government is thinking about tightening regulations regarding foreign investment in important tech firms hardly helping.\n\nUSD - Aside from Yen underperformance and a fragile Franc (latter still straddling 0.9200), the Greenback is gradually losing more of its post-FOMC vigour vs G10 peers and EM counterparts. Indeed, the DXY is slipping further from 92.000 having already retreated into another lower range from last week’s peak (92.408), and in tech terms closing below a Fib support level for the 2nd consecutive day following a round of Fed speak offering a less hawkish/more dovish spin compared to Monday. However, the index is holding just above yesterday’s 91.643 trough, for now, within a 91.900-682 band awaiting more US housing data, Markit’s prelim PMIs and the next batch of Fed officials, including Bowman, Bostic and Rosengren.\nNZD/AUD - The Kiwi and Aussie have both recovered well from overnight lows just under 0.7000 and sub-0.7550 against their US rival irrespective of latest COVID-19 outbreaks in Wellington and NSW that prompted NZ to lift the capital’s alert status to level 2 and the state premier to announce new restrictions for hotspots including Sydney. Nzd/Usd is back up near 0.7050 and Aud/Usd is eyeing 0.7575 having cleared the 200 DMA (0.7560) with some belated assistance perhaps via the CBA revising its RBA outlook markedly (the bank now anticipates a hike in November 2022 vs 2024 previously).\nCAD/EUR - Another and firmer rebound in oil prices has helped the Loonie pare more of its recent losses to probe resistance offers through 1.2300 in the run up to Canadian retail sales, while mostly better than expected Eurozone flash PMIs (after an initial French scare) are contributing to the Euro’s efforts to stay comfortably afloat of 1.1900.\nSCANDI/EM - Brent’s bounce beyond Usd 75/brl alongside WTI on the back of bullish private crude inventory data is boosting the Nok, Rub and Mxn, while the Sek is deriving some underlying support from a sharp upgrade to this year’s GDP estimate from the Swedish Finance Ministry and the Try is taking remarks from the CBRT about protecting the Lira at face value. Elsewhere, the Zar has shrugged off slightly weaker than forecast SA core CPI against the backdrop of relative stability in Gold, but the Cnh and Cny remain on a weaker footing in line with PBoC fixings.\n\nIn commodities,aslower session for the crude complex in terms of newsflow updates after yesterday’s multiple source reports relating to OPEC+ potentially considering increasing production and the benchmarks are now back at prices near/above yesterday’s best levels. Specifically, WTI and Brent August’21 contracts post gains of ~1.0% on the session at the top end of a USD 1/bbl range for Brent which is now trading in the mid USD 75.50/bbl region. Focus this morning has been on yesterday’s bullish private inventory report, particularly referencing the headline crude figure which posted a draw of -7.2mln vs exp. -3.9mln, ahead of the EIA release due later today. Elsewhere, geopolitical development has seen outgoing Iranian President Rouhani’s Chief of Staff announced that parties in Vienna have agreed to lift economic sanctions on Iran; however, Rouhani is the outgoing President so it remains to be seen how relations will transfer and develop when Raisi, who has already refused a President Biden meeting, takes over. Subsequently, Germany’s Foreign Minister says that there are still some issues but acknowledges progress has been made on the nuclear talks. Moving to metals, spot gold and silver have been very contained throughout the morning though modestly firmer on the session taking advantage of USD pressure. For base metals attention remains firmly on the action of China whose State Planner has sent teams to begin investigation commodity pricing and supply. Nonetheless, the likes of platinum, palladium and LME copper remain firmer on the session.\nUS Event Calendar\n\n8:30am: 1Q Current Account Balance, est. -$206.2b, prior -$188.5b\n9:45am: June Markit US Services PMI, est. 70.0, prior 70.4\n9:45am: June Markit US Manufacturing PMI, est. 61.5, prior 62.1\n10am: May New Home Sales, est. 865,000, prior 863,000; MoM, est. 0.2%, prior -5.9%;\n\nDB's Jim Reid concludes the overnight wrap\n5 years ago today we saw the U.K. vote for Brexit. Since this day, Sterling is -6.24% vs the Dollar and +4.87% vs the Euro, 10yr gilts have rallied -59bps (10yr Treasuries and Bunds have rallied -28bps and -26bps for context) and the FTSE is +11.9% (S&P 500 + 100.9% and Stoxx 600 +31.8%). Those who believe it was a bad idea continue to feel as strongly as ever and those who believe it was a good idea also share the same convictions. My only comment is that I can’t believe how quickly five years has gone.\nI wonder what we’ll be saying about the Fed actions in recent weeks in five years time? For now calming remarks from Fed officials meant that risk assets have now regained their poise after last week’s FOMC wobble. Before the numerous Fed speakers, even 10yr US yields briefly traded higher than their pre-FOMC levels (European bonds closed above). However a steady but notable bond rally started with the Fed commentary which in turn helped equity markets power ahead.\nThe early speakers indeed helped set the tone with New York Fed President Williams reassuring markets that rates hikes were “still way off in the future”, while Cleveland Fed President Mester (a non-voter this year) said that they weren’t at a point to dial back accommodation, but that it may come under consideration this Autumn.\nFed Chair Powell later testified before the House of Representatives’ Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis. The Chair received numerous questions on inflation and the Fed’s role and ability to curtail it. Chair Powell stuck to the script that, “a pretty substantial part, or perhaps all of the overshoot in inflation comes from categories that are directly affected by the re-opening of the economy such as used cars and trucks.” However as he mentioned last week, that view requires some level of humility and he acknowledged that those price “effects have been larger than we expected and they may turn out to be more persistent than we expected.” Powell also noted that the FOMC “will wait for actual evidence of actual inflation or other imbalances” before moving rates higher and not react to projections. The S&P 500 rose about 0.35% during the testimony before moderating a bit into the close, while US 10yr treasury yields fell another -1.5bps having rallied with the earlier Fed speak.\nRunning through the moves in response, US equities continued to advance as the S&P 500 (+0.51%) moved to within just quarter of a per cent of last week’s all-time closing high, whilst the VIX index of volatility fell a further -1.2pts as it subsided from its own recent high on Friday. New records were also set, with the NASDAQ (+0.79%) hitting a new record as tech stocks continued to power ahead, though small-cap stocks fared less well with the Russell 2000 closing up +0.43%. The US equity rally was fairly broad based with 18 of 24 industry groups gaining with a mix of technology and cyclicals stocks amongst the best performers. In fact the only two industries that fell over -0.25% yesterday were the defensive, bond-proxies real estate (-0.44%) and utilities (-0.68%). There were similar advances in Europe too, where the STOXX 600 (+0.26%), the FTSE 100 (+0.39%) and the DAX (+0.21%) all moved higher on the day.\nFor US Treasuries, yesterday saw a further steepening in the yield curve, albeit small, with the 2s10s (+0.1bps) and the 5s30s (+0.9bps) both moving higher. That was driven by a rally at the front end, with 2yr yields moving down -2.6bps on the day to 0.228%, whereas 30yr yields were down -2.4bps to 2.09%. We also saw a 2nd day running of higher inflation expectations, with the 10yr breakeven up +4.2bps to 2.32%, which brings its rise over the last 2 sessions to +8.2bps, although lower real yields helped the 10yr Treasury yield to move -2.5bps lower on the day, closing at 1.463%. At the day’s highs (1.507%) 10yr yields were actually +2.3bps higher that just before the FOMC announcement and 30yr yields (2.147%) were just -3bps lower than their pre-FOMC levels. At those intraday highs, the respective bonds were +15.5bps and +22.1bps higher than their Monday morning Asian yields lows. So a wild swing but markets are slowly getting acclimatised to the fact that the Fed didn’t say anything that outlandish last week. They just caught up closer to reality. For Europe it was a slightly different picture however, as 10yr yields on bunds (+0.7bps), OATs (+0.3bps) an BTPs (+2.2bps) all rose on the day.\nAsian markets are largely posting gains this morning with the Nikkei (+0.07%), Hang Seng (+1.46%), Shanghai Comp (+0.46%) and Kospi (+0.38%) all up. Futures on the S&P 500 are also up +0.14% while the dollar index is up +0.11% in early trade today. Elsewhere, commodity prices are mostly trading up with DCE iron ore (+4.17%), Copper (+1.00%), SHF steel rebar (+2.12%) and oil prices (c. 0.50%) all higher. Treasury yields are broadly flat.\nLooking ahead, the main highlight today will be the release of the flash PMIs for June. Back in May, the final numbers showed that growth was still maintaining decent momentum, with the Euro Area composite PMI coming in at 57.1, the strongest in over 3 years, while the US composite PMI was at 68.7, which is the strongest since the data goes back to in October 2009. Price pressures will be scrutinised and it’s possible the recent commodity dip will ease input prices even if supply chain issues still remain. Overnight, we’ve already had the numbers in from Japan and Australia, which showed Japan’s preliminary manufacturing PMI softening to 51.5 from 53.0 last month while the services reading improved to 47.2 from 46.5. Australia’s manufacturing PMI also softened to 58.4 (vs. 60.4 last month), the same trend as the Services PMI which came in at 56.0 (vs. 58.0 last month).\nWhile Bitcoin ended the session up +0.98% at $32,903, at one point the cryptocurrency fell beneath $30,000 in trading for the first time since late January. The cryptocurrency is on track for its 3rd successive monthly decline now, and given it started the year at $28,996 it’s not too far away from having erased its entire YTD gains (it did intra-day), after peaking at an intra-day high of $64,870 back on April 14. So in spite of being all the rage during its ascent in Q1, you’d actually have better YTD returns right now from the mast majority of traditional assets in our monthly performance review suite.\nIn terms of the latest on the pandemic, there were signs that border restrictions could still be around in 2022 after Dow Jones reported that China would keep its pandemic border restrictions for at least another year, according to those familiar with the matter. Separately in the UK there was continued concern about the spread of the delta variant, as yesterday saw the 7-day average of new cases surpass 10,000 for the first time since February. That said, the one good piece of news is that the latest wave has seen the age distribution of cases shift substantially lower relative to previous waves, and younger groups are much less likely to be severely affected by the virus relative to older groups.\nConcerns around the spread of the delta variant has also led to Wellington, capital city of New Zealand, raising its alert level to 2, a step below a lockdown while in Australia, Sydney has decided to impose new restrictions, including compulsory mask-wearing at all indoor venues such as workplaces and shops to control the outbreak. Taiwan has also decided to extend its soft lockdown by another two weeks to June 28. Elsewhere, the White House noted that the US is unlikely to reach 70% of adults with at least one shot by July 4th, however they are likely to get to 70% of all those over the age of 27 by the holiday.\nLooking at yesterday’s data, US existing home sales fell to an annualised rate of 5.80m in May (vs. 5.73m expected), marking the 4th consecutive monthly decline. Separately, the Richmond Fed’s manufacturing survey for June saw the composite index rise to 22 (vs. 18 expected). And over in Europe, the European Commission’s advance consumer confidence reading for the Euro Area in June rose to -3.3 (vs. -3.1 expected), which is its highest level since January 2018.\nTo the day ahead now, and the aforementioned flash PMIs for June will likely be the main highlight. Otherwise, data releases include US new home sales for May, while from central banks, we’ll hear from ECB President Lagarde, Vice President de Guindos, and the Fed’s Bowman, Bostic and Rosengren.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":450,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121317787,"gmtCreate":1624453817749,"gmtModify":1703837132470,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/121317787","repostId":"2145283099","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":426,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121317877,"gmtCreate":1624453784899,"gmtModify":1703837131817,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/121317877","repostId":"1113795668","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1113795668","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624447267,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1113795668?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-23 19:21","market":"us","language":"en","title":"AMC: An Open Letter To The Apes - The Stock Market And Reality","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1113795668","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Summary\n\nEarnings drive stock prices over the long run, even for AMC.

And where investors may have to be more careful.</li>\n <li>Emotion may tell you to buy. Reason will tell you to sell.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>I’ve written two articles recently for Seeking Alpha on AMC Entertainment Holdings(NYSE:AMC), one onJune 4and one onJune 17. The comments I have gotten back in response to the articles were eye-opening for me. I feel like I’ve been let into a world I didn’t know existed. Which means that I also must seem pretty odd to the inhabitants of this ape-world. So, I’d like to explain my point of view in this open letter.</p>\n<p><b>Why I keep harping on AMC’s earnings</b></p>\n<p>One shocker to me is that literally<i>no</i>comment that disagreed with my AMC view ever challenged me on earnings. The same is true for comments on my sell calls on Zillow(NASDAQ:Z), Redfin(NASDAQ:RDFN), Rocket Companies(NYSE:RKT)and Opendoor(NASDAQ:OPEN). So, why do I keep talking about earnings?<i>Because that’s how stocks work.</i>First, common sense says that it works. A share of stock is a share ownership of a company; that’s just a fact. We start and own businesses in order to earn money.</p>\n<p>Second, history says that the relationship between earnings and stock prices exists. A few charts will illustrate this point. First, let’s compare the S&amp;P 500 index with S&amp;P 500 EPS a year ahead:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d09e129752eec6290923863d17249487\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"426\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>Sources:Yahoo Finance,Yardeni Research</i></p>\n<p>The stock market clearly moves with earnings expectations. Now, let’s look at an individual stock. I chose McDonald’s(NYSE:MCD):</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/092d5bc6eb84253ba4ae6fea1f92113f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"430\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>Sources:Yahoo Finance,company reports</i></p>\n<p>Once again, a clear correlation – McDonald’s earns more, investors pay more to own it. Let’s now turn to a company whose earnings prospects took a turn – GoPro(NASDAQ:GPRO):</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6cb1e3a96d4e6e70cc8cb8dbc3b4643f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"431\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>Sources:Yahoo Finance,company reports</i></p>\n<p>GoPro’s stock price leaped after its IPO on the assumption that booming sales of its cameras would send earnings soaring above its 2014 EPS of $1.32. But smartphones – the cameras in our pockets – diverted sales away from GoPro, and its EPS took a serious slide into negative territory. In response, the stock tanked. It has only recently made a modest recovery as GoPro management managed to start earning money.<i>Again, a clear link between earnings and the stock price</i>.</p>\n<p>OK, one more – company X:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f3b9e1ded9a66995ca17edc221ddd9a6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>Sources:Yahoo Finance,company reports</i></p>\n<p>Another excellent correlation between earnings and stock price. This company saw some EPS growth during 2015 and 2016, but earnings then turned south. The stock price followed.</p>\n<p>Who is this company X? I bet you guessed it – AMC!<i>Up until the pandemic hit, AMC’s stock performed like other stocks – on earnings expectations. It will again.</i></p>\n<p><b>Do you want to own an AMC theater?</b></p>\n<p>Instead of owning AMC stock, how about if you owned an AMC theater? This way, you are a real business owner.</p>\n<p>At last look, AMC’s market cap is $30.5 billion. Add in about $3.5 billion of debt less cash and we’ll say that AMC’s theaters are currently valued at $34 billion. At the beginning of this year, AMC had 950 movie theaters. That means, each theater is valued today at $36 million.</p>\n<p>If you don’t borrow money to pay your $36 million, my best guess from AMC’s financials is that you’ll rake in $220,000 in profits. Not bad, right? A cool 0.6% return on your investment. A return likely to shrink over time as we spend more time streaming and less time at the movies. Or you could buy more current favorite stock MGIC(NYSE:MTG), which last year generatedcash EPS of $2.45, an 18% return on its current stock price. But you would have to give up the free movie tickets from owning a theater. Your choice. I’ve gone for the latter. 18% &gt; 0.6%.</p>\n<p><b>Is it really different this time?</b></p>\n<p>Will AMC stock continue to rise just because apes continue to put more and more money in it? Can AMC become a permanent short squeeze?</p>\n<p>I’m old. While that means my tennis game is sinking, it also has allowed me to see lots of “it’s different this time” stories. They almost never work. Gravity takes over and brings magical beliefs back to earth. The ‘80s commercial real estate boom, the ‘90s internet boom, the ‘00s housing boom, all relied on broad-based beliefs that this time was different, and if you didn’t agree, “you don’t get it”. Gravity brought all three beliefs painfully back to earth. Betting against gravity is a serious long shot.</p>\n<p><b>Is the stock market fixed?</b></p>\n<p>Lots of the comments to my articles suggested that meme investing is revenge against a financial system fixed against the little guy and gal. I consider myself to be pretty cynical, but I can’t see the stock market as a whole as fixed. Some evidence:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><i>The link I established above between earnings and stock prices.</i>This means that, in the long run, it is company performance that determines stock prices, not Wall Street.</li>\n <li><i>Mutual funds routinely underperform index funds.</i>Big fund complexes like BlackRock, T. Rowe Price and Fidelity all have highly paid analysts and portfolio managers running their money. But many studies have shown that they generally do<i>worse</i>than market averages. So, they are no better than we are.</li>\n <li><i>Hedge funds have done even worse.</i>For example,NASDAQreported that the average hedge fund earned 11% in 2020, well below the S&amp;P 500 18% return. And they did far worse in 2019 – up 10% compared to +31% for the S&amp;P 500. My belief is that hedge funds have too much money chasing a small group of trades. Now, hedge fund<i>managers</i>can make obscene amounts of money because of their lucrative 2%/20% compensation structure. That’s another story. But hedge fund investors have been left behind.</li>\n <li><i>Wall Street is blanketed with regulations aimed at levelling the playing field.</i>There are rules against insider trading, selectively disseminating material information and many other forms of bad behavior. Of course, smart people can and do slip by some rules, but rampant cheating is quite difficult to achieve.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Are short sellers lying to support their positions?</b></p>\n<p>There certainly are cases of this, but a far simpler answer explains why GameStop(NYSE:GME)and AMC are short targets.

Here's the data.\nThe economics of buying an AMC movie theater rather than the stock.\nShorting AMC is mostly common sense, not a conspiracy. And where investors may have to be more careful.\nEmotion may tell you to buy. Reason will tell you to sell.\n\nI’ve written two articles recently for Seeking Alpha on AMC Entertainment Holdings(NYSE:AMC), one onJune 4and one onJune 17. The comments I have gotten back in response to the articles were eye-opening for me. I feel like I’ve been let into a world I didn’t know existed. Which means that I also must seem pretty odd to the inhabitants of this ape-world. So, I’d like to explain my point of view in this open letter.\nWhy I keep harping on AMC’s earnings\nOne shocker to me is that literallynocomment that disagreed with my AMC view ever challenged me on earnings. The same is true for comments on my sell calls on Zillow(NASDAQ:Z), Redfin(NASDAQ:RDFN), Rocket Companies(NYSE:RKT)and Opendoor(NASDAQ:OPEN). So, why do I keep talking about earnings?Because that’s how stocks work.First, common sense says that it works. A share of stock is a share ownership of a company; that’s just a fact. We start and own businesses in order to earn money.\nSecond, history says that the relationship between earnings and stock prices exists. A few charts will illustrate this point. First, let’s compare the S&P 500 index with S&P 500 EPS a year ahead:\n\nSources:Yahoo Finance,Yardeni Research\nThe stock market clearly moves with earnings expectations. Now, let’s look at an individual stock. I chose McDonald’s(NYSE:MCD):\n\nSources:Yahoo Finance,company reports\nOnce again, a clear correlation – McDonald’s earns more, investors pay more to own it. Let’s now turn to a company whose earnings prospects took a turn – GoPro(NASDAQ:GPRO):\n\nSources:Yahoo Finance,company reports\nGoPro’s stock price leaped after its IPO on the assumption that booming sales of its cameras would send earnings soaring above its 2014 EPS of $1.32. But smartphones – the cameras in our pockets – diverted sales away from GoPro, and its EPS took a serious slide into negative territory. In response, the stock tanked. It has only recently made a modest recovery as GoPro management managed to start earning money.Again, a clear link between earnings and the stock price.\nOK, one more – company X:\n\nSources:Yahoo Finance,company reports\nAnother excellent correlation between earnings and stock price. This company saw some EPS growth during 2015 and 2016, but earnings then turned south. The stock price followed.\nWho is this company X? I bet you guessed it – AMC!Up until the pandemic hit, AMC’s stock performed like other stocks – on earnings expectations. It will again.\nDo you want to own an AMC theater?\nInstead of owning AMC stock, how about if you owned an AMC theater? This way, you are a real business owner.\nAt last look, AMC’s market cap is $30.5 billion. Add in about $3.5 billion of debt less cash and we’ll say that AMC’s theaters are currently valued at $34 billion. At the beginning of this year, AMC had 950 movie theaters. That means, each theater is valued today at $36 million.\nIf you don’t borrow money to pay your $36 million, my best guess from AMC’s financials is that you’ll rake in $220,000 in profits. Not bad, right? A cool 0.6% return on your investment. A return likely to shrink over time as we spend more time streaming and less time at the movies. Or you could buy more current favorite stock MGIC(NYSE:MTG), which last year generatedcash EPS of $2.45, an 18% return on its current stock price. But you would have to give up the free movie tickets from owning a theater. Your choice. I’ve gone for the latter. 18% > 0.6%.\nIs it really different this time?\nWill AMC stock continue to rise just because apes continue to put more and more money in it? Can AMC become a permanent short squeeze?\nI’m old. While that means my tennis game is sinking, it also has allowed me to see lots of “it’s different this time” stories. They almost never work. Gravity takes over and brings magical beliefs back to earth. The ‘80s commercial real estate boom, the ‘90s internet boom, the ‘00s housing boom, all relied on broad-based beliefs that this time was different, and if you didn’t agree, “you don’t get it”. Gravity brought all three beliefs painfully back to earth. Betting against gravity is a serious long shot.\nIs the stock market fixed?\nLots of the comments to my articles suggested that meme investing is revenge against a financial system fixed against the little guy and gal. I consider myself to be pretty cynical, but I can’t see the stock market as a whole as fixed. Some evidence:\n\nThe link I established above between earnings and stock prices.This means that, in the long run, it is company performance that determines stock prices, not Wall Street.\nMutual funds routinely underperform index funds.Big fund complexes like BlackRock, T. Rowe Price and Fidelity all have highly paid analysts and portfolio managers running their money. But many studies have shown that they generally doworsethan market averages. So, they are no better than we are.\nHedge funds have done even worse.For example,NASDAQreported that the average hedge fund earned 11% in 2020, well below the S&P 500 18% return. And they did far worse in 2019 – up 10% compared to +31% for the S&P 500. My belief is that hedge funds have too much money chasing a small group of trades. Now, hedge fundmanagerscan make obscene amounts of money because of their lucrative 2%/20% compensation structure. That’s another story. But hedge fund investors have been left behind.\nWall Street is blanketed with regulations aimed at levelling the playing field.There are rules against insider trading, selectively disseminating material information and many other forms of bad behavior. Of course, smart people can and do slip by some rules, but rampant cheating is quite difficult to achieve.\n\nAre short sellers lying to support their positions?\nThere certainly are cases of this, but a far simpler answer explains why GameStop(NYSE:GME)and AMC are short targets. Come on – both are store-based businesses in an increasingly online world, right? With several years of losses behind them already. Blockbuster, Sears, Pier One… shorting the Old Economy is not rocket science.\nBut how are potential investors in these New Age companies supposed to deal with these dramatic claims?\nZillow. From its10-K:\n\n “ \n As we continue to expand into transaction-related services, our Total Addressable Market [TAM] has expanded from $19 billion in U.S. real estate related advertising…to $2.2 trillion of annual home sales…”\n\nSounds awesome, right? $2.2 trillion of potential revenues for Zillow. Except if home sellers expect to keep some of the proceeds of their home sales. In fact, the average real estate commission is 4.5%, giving Zillow an actual TAM of $100 billion. $100 billion < $2.2 trillion. By alot.\nRocket Mortgage. From itsQ1 earnings conference call:\n\n “ \n As we continue to expand our platform, creating certainty for clients in categories that have historically been challenging, the opportunity for Rocket Companies is gigantic. Consider this; when combined real estate, automotive sales and financial services, all markets where we're helping to lead the way, account for nearly one third of the US GDP.” (My highlighting)\n\nWow! Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) will soon be a blip in Rocket’s rear-view mirror if I believe any of this. By the way, check out Rocket’s insider sales while management is dishing out this hype.\nEmotions versus reason\nI see a lot of anger, frustration, and revenge in the AMC comments. Life stinks a lot, so I get the rationale for these emotions. But I have learned that emotions are the enemy of successful investing.Anyemotions, ranging from fear to enthusiasm. Rational thinking about a company’s value, or even (not my style) investors’ moods, has proven to work better.\nAll of us primates, human and ape, are heavily driven by emotions (even me!), so we are never going to squeeze all of them out of our investment decisions. But the more squeezing, the better.\nAll of the above says “Sell AMC”\n\nAMC’s earnings prospects can’t come close to supporting the current stock price. Gravity will do its job.\nIf you don’t want to own a movie theater, don’t own the stock.\nAMC short sellers are driven more by common sense than by some conspiracy.\nAMC’s stock price contains an enormous emotional content, and a change in those fickle emotions will change the stock price quickly.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":236,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121314318,"gmtCreate":1624453735334,"gmtModify":1703837130832,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/121314318","repostId":"1115142051","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1115142051","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624447827,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1115142051?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-23 19:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Warren Buffett Resigns From Gates Foundation Board","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1115142051","media":"zerohedge","summary":"In another potential indicator ofhow public opinion has turned against Bill Gatesin the weeks since ","content":"<p>In another potential indicator ofhow public opinion has turned against Bill Gatesin the weeks since he and his now ex-wife Melinda Gates disclosed their divorce plans, financier Warren Buffett has resigned as a trustee of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Suzman has insisted that both Bill and Melinda remain committed to the Foundation even after their divorce.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":469,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121315683,"gmtCreate":1624453711742,"gmtModify":1703837128987,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Bitcoin&nbsp;","listText":"Bitcoin&nbsp;","text":"Bitcoin","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/121315683","repostId":"1174672721","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1174672721","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624448078,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1174672721?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-23 19:34","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Weekly mortgage refinance demand jumps as some fear end of super-low rates is near","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1174672721","media":"cnbc","summary":"KEY POINTS\n\nThe average contract interest rate for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages with conforming loan","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nThe average contract interest rate for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages with conforming loan balances rose to the highest level in a month.\nStill, applications to refinance a home loan rose 3%...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/23/weekly-mortgage-refinancing-jumps-on-fears-that-super-low-rates-are-ending.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

That may sound counterintuitive, but it speaks to the larger picture of where mortgage rates are heading.\nApplications to refinance a home loan rose 3% last week from the previous week, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association’s seasonally adjusted index. Volume was 9% lower than a year earlier.\nThe data comes as the average contract interest rate for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages with conforming loan balances ($548,250 or less) rose to the highest level in a month. It increased to 3.18% from 3.11%, with points increasing to 0.48 from 0.36 (including the origination fee) for loans with a 20% down payment. The rate was just 12 basis points higher a year ago.\nRates jumped after Federal Reserve officials indicated last week that rate hikes could come in 2023, a year earlier than expected. However, they didn’t mention when they would start scaling back their massive bond-buying program, which has kept mortgage rates near record lows.\nRefinance demand had been falling sharply as rates rise but has improved in recent weeks. This may be because homeowners think rates are only going up, and it could be the last chance for the best deal. Rates set more than a dozen record lows last year, and refinance demand was huge. However, thousands of borrowers can still save now before rates move higher.\nMortgage applications to purchase a home increased 1% from the previous week and were 14% lower than a year ago. Buyers are hitting an affordability wall, as home prices keep rising quickly. A report onexisting home sales in Mayshowed the fourth straight month of declining home sales.\n“Falling affordability is simply squeezing some first-time buyers out of the market.,” said Lawrence Yun, chief economist for the National Association of Realtors, which issued the report Tuesday.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":440,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121312287,"gmtCreate":1624453692249,"gmtModify":1703837127847,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Bitcoin&nbsp;","listText":"Bitcoin&nbsp;","text":"Bitcoin","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/121312287","repostId":"1121798334","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1121798334","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624451302,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1121798334?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-23 20:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Bitcoin And The 2000 Technology Bubble Have A Lot In Common","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1121798334","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Summary\n\nBitcoin has many similarities to the speculative nature of the stock market of the late 199","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Bitcoin has many similarities to the speculative nature of the stock market of the late 1990s.</li>\n <li>There's nothing fundamental about Bitcoin to anchor its valuation.</li>\n <li>The technicals suggest it falls to between 16,000 and 19,000.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Volatility in Bitcoin (BTC-USD) is picking up once again, and it isn't likely to go away anytime soon.

This fact has boosted demand for graphics cards, contributing to shortages and high prices.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nNVIDIA sells some models specifically aimed at cryptocurrency miners, but miners are also buying plenty of standard graphics cards through the same channels used by PC gamers. This makes it difficult to tell how much of NVIDIA's gaming revenue is a side-effect of the cryptocurrency bubble. NVIDIA's gaming revenue more than doubled year-over-year to $2.76 billion in its latest quarter.\nWhat happens if crypto prices continue to crash? It wasn't pretty for NVIDIA last time around.\nFrom shortage to supply glut\nThe price of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies soared throughout 2017 and early 2018.

Car fanatics, like myself, like the latest and greatest engineering tidbits, so we would rather cancel our orders versus settle for a base model.</p>\n<p>The good news for Tesla is that its China sales in May resurged to 21,936, up sharply from 11,671 in April. The company’s sales tend to spike at the end of each quarter. For example, Tesla sold 35,478 vehicles in China in March, which was the strongest month ever in China.</p>\n<p>This is raising expectations for very strong China sales in June, especially now that the Model Y is being manufactured in Shanghai. Interestingly, since most Chinese Teslas are now made with iron phosphate batteries, these vehicles have lower range than its lithium cobalt vehicles, but its iron phosphate vehicles are cheaper and now increasingly being exported to Europe.</p>\n<p>However, I’m convinced another electric vehicle (EV) company will eventually displace Tesla as the biggest manufacturer of EVs in China.</p>\n<p><b>Taking Advantage of the EV Revolution’s Profit Potential</b></p>\n<p>I’m talking about&nbsp;<b>Nio, Inc.</b>(NYSE:<b>NIO</b>). The reality is that this company is on the verge of dominating the EV market in China and Hong Kong. It’s why I put NIO on my<b><i>Platinum Growth Club</i></b>Model Portfolio back in February.</p>\n<p>The company boasts that it is the “next-generation car company,” as it designs and manufactures electric vehicles that utilize the latest technologies in connectivity, autonomous driving and artificial intelligence (AI). NIO currently offers an electric seven-seater SUV (ES8) and a five-seater electric SUV (ES6) and recently introduced an attractive electric sedan (ET7). Its vehicles utilize NOMI, an in-vehicle artificial intelligence assistant.</p>\n<p>The company is also partnering with cutting-edge chip companies like<b>NVIDIA Corporation</b>(NASDAQ:<b>NVDA</b>), another one of my<b><i>Platinum Growth Club</i></b>Model Portfolio stocks. NIO plans to use the NVIDIA DRIVE Orin system-on-a-chip for its electric vehicles that will provide autonomous driving capabilities. The NVIDIA DRIVE Orin-powered supercomputer, which is being called Adam, will be launched in the ET7 sedan in China in 2022. Announcements like this are very positive, so NIO has been stealing some of Tesla’s thunder lately.</p>\n<p>Now, it’s important to note that NIO was bailed out by the Chinese government. Last year, the Chinese government injected $1 billion and now has a 24% ownership in the company. The reality is that China wants to dominate at least five major industries by 2025, and NIO is now its ticket to dominate EV manufacturing.</p>\n<p>With the backing of the Chinese government, some Wall Street firms are eager to help NIO by issuing new debt or equity. So, I wouldn’t be surprised if NIO surpasses Tesla, which is currently number-two in China, for market share in the upcoming years.</p>\n<p>That means, if you missed Tesla’s parabolic run like I did, NIO is essentially giving us a “second chance” to make money in a potentially explosive electric vehicle company.</p>\n<p>Shares of NIO climbed nearly 13% since the company’s June 4 announcement of its May delivery report and positive analyst comments, while Tesla shares rose almost 3%. First, NIO revealed that the global chip shortage is starting to take a toll on its business. NIO only delivered 6,711 vehicles in May, or a 5.5% decline from April’s deliveries. Company management noted that deliveries were “adversely impacted for several days due to the volatility of semiconductor supply and certain logistical adjustments.”</p>\n<p>Interestingly, despite the month-to-month dip, NIO’s deliveries were still up 95.3% year-over-year. Strong demand in China even inspired a Citigroup analyst to upgrade NIO to a buy rating, as he expects demand to accelerate in the coming months.</p>\n<p>In other words, NIO represents the<b>crème de la crème</b>of EV stocks right now.</p>","source":"lsy1606302653667","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>Why I Believe NIO Will Beat Out Tesla</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\">\nWhy I Believe NIO Will Beat Out Tesla\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-23 15:33 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/06/why-i-believe-nio-will-beat-out-tesla/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.\n\nSuper fans of the latest and greatest high-endTesla, Inc.(NASDAQ:TSLA) model received some disappointing news a week ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2021/06/why-i-believe-nio-will-beat-out-tesla/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"TSLA":"特斯拉","NIO":"蔚来"},"source_url":"https://investorplace.com/2021/06/why-i-believe-nio-will-beat-out-tesla/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1145825451","content_text":"The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.\n\nSuper fans of the latest and greatest high-endTesla, Inc.(NASDAQ:TSLA) model received some disappointing news a week ago when CEO Elon Musk abruptly canceled the release of its highly anticipated Model S Plaid Plus with a tweet on June 6.\nSource: nrqemi / Shutterstock.com\nMusk wrote there was… “No need, as Plaid is just so good.”\nThe Model S Plaid Plus was supposed to be the fastest, most powerful and priciest version of the company’s Model S.

The reality is that China wants to dominate at least five major industries by 2025, and NIO is now its ticket to dominate EV manufacturing.\nWith the backing of the Chinese government, some Wall Street firms are eager to help NIO by issuing new debt or equity. So, I wouldn’t be surprised if NIO surpasses Tesla, which is currently number-two in China, for market share in the upcoming years.\nThat means, if you missed Tesla’s parabolic run like I did, NIO is essentially giving us a “second chance” to make money in a potentially explosive electric vehicle company.\nShares of NIO climbed nearly 13% since the company’s June 4 announcement of its May delivery report and positive analyst comments, while Tesla shares rose almost 3%. First, NIO revealed that the global chip shortage is starting to take a toll on its business. NIO only delivered 6,711 vehicles in May, or a 5.5% decline from April’s deliveries. Company management noted that deliveries were “adversely impacted for several days due to the volatility of semiconductor supply and certain logistical adjustments.”\nInterestingly, despite the month-to-month dip, NIO’s deliveries were still up 95.3% year-over-year. Strong demand in China even inspired a Citigroup analyst to upgrade NIO to a buy rating, as he expects demand to accelerate in the coming months.\nIn other words, NIO represents thecrème de la crèmeof EV stocks right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":399,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121319524,"gmtCreate":1624453520368,"gmtModify":1703837121996,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sure&nbsp;","listText":"Sure&nbsp;","text":"Sure","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/121319524","repostId":"1146629706","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1146629706","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":1624449285,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1146629706?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-23 19:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Toplines Before US Market Open on Wednesday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1146629706","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Stock futures are bouncing between small gains and losses, indicating a quiet opening.\nBitcoin, ethe","content":"<ul>\n <li>Stock futures are bouncing between small gains and losses, indicating a quiet opening.</li>\n <li>Bitcoin, ethereum and other crypto currenciesrose Wednesday after a tumultous few daysof trading.

The indices fell about 1% to close out a red week, but not for the<b>Nasdaq</b>. Stocks like<b>Microsoft</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>MSFT</u></b>) did better than the rest. MSFT stock is one tick away from an all-time high.</p>\n<p>In fact, on Friday, it was higher than its prior closing high. Even though the stock has been on a tear, there isn’t extreme froth in it. That’s because management has been on point since Satya Nadella took over as CEO. Investors are reaping the rewards of a great adaptation strategy.</p>\n<p>Microsoft grew its revenues 70% in the last four years and doubled its net income. These are impressive statistics that somewhat justify the price action. I said “somewhat” on purpose because I am cautious up here.</p>\n<p>My reason for this is more extrinsic than Microsoft specific. I am confident that they will continue to fire on all cylinders. My concerns stem from the next six months of macroeconomic conditions.</p>\n<p><b>MSFT Stock and the Economy</b></p>\n<p>We have had QE and stimulus programs running so long and so strong that I expect a let down. This patient has been on the heaviest drugs available, and getting off them is going to be painful. The economy is doing very well thanks in large part to government aid.</p>\n<p>First, the Federal Reserve is providing extreme liquidity. Their asset repurchase programs infuse $1.4 trillion a year. Second, the White House is tripling that in direct aid to its citizens. These measures are ending and the stock market will miss their impact.</p>\n<p>In addition, we are in a weird inflation scenario. We all know that everything is more expensive than it’s ever been. Yet the CPI says otherwise, and the Fed is calling it transitory. I fear that there is something more sinister lurking. I don’t want to repeat the blindside of 2008, so it’s best to prep a bit.</p>\n<p><b>A Look at MSFT’s Chart</b></p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/10978bc08162a30ddbd9099ddc512015\" tg-width=\"1548\" tg-height=\"817\">My forecast is that there will be a spending crimp going into 2022. If I am right, the indices should suffer and MSFT stock will have to work within that. The rising wedge that it has delivered since the pandemic bottom is very steep. It is up almost 100% since then and 210% from 2018. Even though I am confident of the fundamental reasons it is up here, I am leery about the technical setup.</p>\n<p>When stocks breakout they often revisit prior necklines. In this case, it has three different major pivot zones. None of them would look pretty if they come to fruition.</p>\n<p>For the short term, I acknowledge the remaining potential upside. In the last six months, MSFT stock has had 15% rallies. Each faded half way before launching the next rally. This third one is still ongoing and could have another 6% left in it.

The indices fell about 1% to close out a red week, but not for theNasdaq. Stocks likeMicrosoft(NASDAQ:MSFT) did better than the rest. MSFT stock is one tick away from an all-time high.\nIn fact, on Friday, it was higher than its prior closing high. Even though the stock has been on a tear, there isn’t extreme froth in it. That’s because management has been on point since Satya Nadella took over as CEO. Investors are reaping the rewards of a great adaptation strategy.\nMicrosoft grew its revenues 70% in the last four years and doubled its net income. These are impressive statistics that somewhat justify the price action. I said “somewhat” on purpose because I am cautious up here.\nMy reason for this is more extrinsic than Microsoft specific. I am confident that they will continue to fire on all cylinders. My concerns stem from the next six months of macroeconomic conditions.\nMSFT Stock and the Economy\nWe have had QE and stimulus programs running so long and so strong that I expect a let down. This patient has been on the heaviest drugs available, and getting off them is going to be painful. The economy is doing very well thanks in large part to government aid.\nFirst, the Federal Reserve is providing extreme liquidity. Their asset repurchase programs infuse $1.4 trillion a year. Second, the White House is tripling that in direct aid to its citizens. These measures are ending and the stock market will miss their impact.\nIn addition, we are in a weird inflation scenario. We all know that everything is more expensive than it’s ever been. Yet the CPI says otherwise, and the Fed is calling it transitory. I fear that there is something more sinister lurking. I don’t want to repeat the blindside of 2008, so it’s best to prep a bit.\nA Look at MSFT’s Chart\nMy forecast is that there will be a spending crimp going into 2022. If I am right, the indices should suffer and MSFT stock will have to work within that. The rising wedge that it has delivered since the pandemic bottom is very steep. It is up almost 100% since then and 210% from 2018. Even though I am confident of the fundamental reasons it is up here, I am leery about the technical setup.\nWhen stocks breakout they often revisit prior necklines. In this case, it has three different major pivot zones. None of them would look pretty if they come to fruition.\nFor the short term, I acknowledge the remaining potential upside. In the last six months, MSFT stock has had 15% rallies. Each faded half way before launching the next rally. This third one is still ongoing and could have another 6% left in it. Investors buying shares in size must be more confident about their timeline than I am.\nA Matter of Timing for MSFT Stock\nI understand the traditional long-term perspective, but that logic goes both ways. Patient investors often say that they aren’t trying to time entries. If so, then what’s the harm and waiting out a few ticks higher or lower?\nCall me crazy, but I’d rather start out on a positive note than to buy a top.\nMSFT stock has many strong support levels between here and the 2020 lows.

If so, expect congressional Democrats to begin moving a broader fiscal package under the reconciliation process.</p>\n<p>Reading recent headlines, one would be left with the impression of a wide range of spending outcomes – a boost of a few hundred billion to as much as $6 trillion over ten years – but the range of outcomes is not as wide as these figures imply. Most of the “traditional” infrastructure President Biden has proposed looks likely to pass, along with substantial R&amp;D spending and renewal of personal tax credits that expire at year end. Together, these cost around 1% of GDP on an annual basis over the next few years. The remainder of the Biden agenda might boost spending by another1% of GDP, but Congress is expected to pare these proposals considerably.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, tax increases also still look likely, assuming that Democrats pass legislation using the reconciliation process. That's why Goldman has not changed its views much in this area, and still expects<b>the corporate tax rate to settle around 25% along with more incremental versions of the international tax changes Biden has proposed.</b>A capital gains rate increase is a close call, but a 28%capital gains rate is slightly more likely than the status quo.</p>\n<p>Finally, the likely timing of fiscal action has also changed more noticeably,<b>with likely enactment slipping from mid/late Q3 to Q4.</b>This is due in large part to the continuation of bipartisan negotiations for longer than we had expected, which has led congressional Democratic leaders to delay the first procedural steps necessary to pass a reconciliation bill.</p>\n<p><i>Below we republish the key aspects of Goldman's FIscal Policy Status Check Q&amp;A:</i></p>\n<p><i>Q: Will there be a bipartisan deal on a broad infrastructure bill?</i></p>\n<p><b>A broad bipartisan infrastructure package still looks somewhat unlikely to us.</b>Negotiations in the Senate have progressed and the odds have increased somewhat that a bipartisan bill covering many areas in President Biden’s program might pass. However, we still think there are obstacles to a broad deal and expect that most of the fiscal boost Congress approves this year will come through a reconciliation bill that passes with only Democratic support.</p>\n<p>Unsurprisingly, there appears to be the most agreement on boosting traditional infrastructure spending. As shown in Exhibit 1, the current Senate bipartisan proposal comes close to matching the White House proposal in most areas of transportation infrastructure.</p>\n<p>More controversial is how to address non-traditional infrastructure and how to finance the cost of any new spending. The latest bipartisan effort appears to have made some inroads on the former. It includes $65bn for broadband, which falls short of the roughly $100bn that the White House proposed but it would be the greatest federal investment to date and seems close enough to the Democratic target that this issue alone looks unlikely to hold up an agreement.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/70d0d7b968b10f5764ef17cd3c787d53\" tg-width=\"944\" tg-height=\"1186\"></p>\n<p>Other areas of non-traditional infrastructure in bipartisan discussions are much farther away from White House goals. Senate Republicans look unlikely to support substantial funding for electric vehicles or construction of affordable housing, for example. Clean energy is more of a gray area; Congress has previously approved, on a bipartisan basis, a number of different incentives for energy efficiency and renewable energy like wind, solar, and biofuels. However, the program President Biden proposes is on a much larger scale than existing subsidies and the latest bipartisan proposal includes only a fraction of what the White House is seeking in this area.</p>\n<p>The greatest obstacle to prior political efforts at enacting an infrastructure program has been financing it. Here, there appears to have been much less progress (Exhibit 2). Each side has drawn lines they seem unlikely to cross: most Republicans oppose reversing any of the 2017 tax law or otherwise increasing income taxes—corporate or personal—to pay for the proposal. Most Democrats, including the White House, have ruled out increasing the user fees that finance most current infrastructure spending and appear uninterested in redirecting unspent COVID-relief funds.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9578698f5c5efa5311cc0e31be31f715\" tg-width=\"939\" tg-height=\"509\">The most likely area of overlapping support is closing the “tax gap” through greater enforcement of existing tax laws, but even this faces challenges. Congressional estimates of the potential revenue gain from closing the tax gap are much smaller than the Administration’s. The Congressional Budget Office estimated in 2020 that increasing IRS funding by $20 billion over ten years would produce $60bn in additional revenue, while a $40bn increase would raise $103bn (i.e., the first $20bn bump would raise $3 for each dollar spent, while the next $20bn bump in funding would raise only $2 for each dollar of extra spending). While it is possible that CBO might revise its estimate in light of arguments from the Administration, or that Republicans might agree to policies beyond an IRS funding increase, it seems unlikely that additional IRS funding would come anywhere close to covering the cost of an infrastructure proposal, at least according to the official estimate that Congress will rely on.</p>\n<p>In our view, the only way that Congress will reach a bipartisan agreement on a broad infrastructure package is if lawmakers decide not to offset the new spending with savings elsewhere. So far, the White House and congressional Republicans have insisted that the bill should be paid for.</p>\n<p><i>Q: Without a bipartisan deal, what happens with infrastructure legislation?</i></p>\n<p><b>If a broad bipartisan deal fails, a narrow one is likely to pass.</b>While a broad bipartisan agreement covering several aspects of the Biden proposal looks difficult to achieve, a narrower deal that primarily boosts transportation infrastructure looks likely to become law, for three reasons.</p>\n<p>First, federal programs for most areas of traditional infrastructure—highways, public transit, rail, airports, waterways and drinking/ wastewater—already exist. The largest of them, which are collectively funded by the Highway Trust Fund (HTF), expire September 30. Traditionally, Congress reauthorizes these programs in five-year increments,sometimes after one or more short-term extensions until lawmakers reach agreement.The legislation to renew these programs cannot pass via the reconciliation process, soDemocrats will need Republican support for any short- or long-term extension. Theupshot is that it is nearly certain that some type of infrastructure legislation passes on abipartisan basis to avoid a lapse in the programs.</p>\n<p>Second, some progressive Democrats seem likely to oppose an infrastructure bill that does not include substantial new policies related to climate and clean energy. Without their votes, greater support among congressional Republicans in the House and Senate would be necessary. To win greater support, the bill might need to narrow its scope further, to the point that it mainly extends existing infrastructure spending programs.</p>\n<p>Third, financing a narrow infrastructure deal would not be nearly as difficult as financing the sort of bill currently under discussion. Existing transportation infrastructure programs already have dedicated revenue streams that fund most of their spending. Financing an incremental boost in spending on existing programs would be far easier than finding bipartisan agreement on several hundred billion dollars in new revenue or spending cuts.</p>\n<p><i>Q: What difference does it make if Congress reaches a bipartisan deal on infrastructure?</i></p>\n<p><b>A broad bipartisan infrastructure bill could reduce the odds that the rest of the Biden fiscal agenda becomes law</b>. A broader bipartisan deal that overlaps with many areas of the Biden proposal could reduce centrist Democratic support for passing subsequent fiscal legislation through the reconciliation process. If this occurred, the spending boost over the next few years might be smaller than we have been expecting but corporate and capital gains taxes would also be less likely to increase.</p>\n<p>By contrast, a narrower bipartisan deal limited to traditional infrastructure would still leave the door open for Democrats to pass a separate fiscal package through the reconciliation process that addresses much of the remainder of President Biden’s proposals. Relative to the scenario in which Congress passes a broad bipartisan infrastructure deal, passing a narrow transportation bill followed by a separate reconciliation bill would likely result in a greater overall increase in spending, partly offset by tax increases.</p>\n<p><i>Q: What are the risks around spending levels under the different scenarios?</i></p>\n<p><b>Congress seems very likely to approve spending and tax benefits equal to at least 1% of GDP over the next few years, but unlikely to go beyond 2% of GDP.</b>Headlines regarding fiscal proposals over the last few weeks have run the gamut from a boost of only a few hundred billion at the low end (the Republican infrastructure proposal) to $6 trillion over ten years at the high end (the reported spending total Senate Democrats are considering).</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c29c240e9afe9bc1a84d4f359152bb57\" tg-width=\"937\" tg-height=\"675\">However, these large figures overstate the range of realistic scenarios. At a minimum, we expect Congress to enact three sets of policies this year: the infrastructure proposals that already have bipartisan support, the R&amp;D and manufacturing incentives that recently passed the Senate, and extension of the personal tax credits that Congress approved earlier this year. As Exhibit 3 shows, these policies would total around 1% of GDP by 2023, and would cost about $1.6 trillion over the next ten years. At this point, it is difficult to imagine Congress approving less this year.</p>\n<p>At the other end of the range of outcomes, it seems unlikely that Congress will enact spending worth more than 2% of GDP on an annual basis. As shown in Exhibit 3, Congress would need to pass nearly all of President Biden’s proposals to reach this level, or around $4.25 trillion over the next ten years.</p>\n<p>The uncertainty is mainly related to new benefits for child care, education, and paid leave under the “American Families Plan” as well as the remaining areas of infrastructure that any sort of bipartisan infrastructure deal would likely omit. These areas depend most on the use of budget reconciliation legislation, as it seems very unlikely that any of the proposals would attract much Republican support.</p>\n<p>That said, even if Congress enacts nearly all of President Biden’s proposed policies, fiscal support will diminish substantially from 2021 to 2022. Exhibit 4 shows the deficit effect of legislation enacted since the pandemic began, as well as the fiscal effects of President Biden’s proposals using our own categorization.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/812bd47cecb22835bb2a223a3ddecb8f\" tg-width=\"925\" tg-height=\"620\"><i>Q: How much will legislation this year increase spending?</i></p>\n<p><b>We think the overall boost could amount to $2.5 to $3 trillion over the next ten years.</b>Assuming congressional Democrats take advantage of the reconciliation process to pass fiscal legislation, there will still be two constraints on the amount of additional spending Congress might approve.</p>\n<p>Centrist Democrats in the House and Senate are likely to object to legislation that raises the deficit substantially over the next ten years. This will become relevant in the next few weeks, when Congress considers its budget resolution. To use the reconciliation process, the resolution must include instructions to the relevant committees to increase the deficit (or alternatively to increase spending and increase taxes) by specific amounts. The deficit impact of the reconciliation bill that follows will be limited to those amounts. It is extremely unlikely that any Republicans will vote for the Democratic budget resolution, so every Democratic senator and virtually every Democratic member of the House will need to vote for the resolution. It is not yet clear how much deficit expansion Democrats will be willing to support, but we expect centrist Democrats to draw the line at somewhere around $1 trillion. For context, President Biden’s recent budget submission to Congress proposed increasing the deficit by $800bn over the next ten years.</p>\n<p>Assuming a limit on the overall amount of deficit expansion, the amount of tax increases and other budgetary savings that lawmakers can agree to will determine how much they can increase spending. At the moment, we expect that Congress might be able to agree on around $1.5 trillion in budgetary savings, nearly all of which could come from tax increases, as discussed later. If so, a reconciliation bill would be limited to around $2.5 trillion in new spending. However, we expect that some additional spending might be approved as part of other legislation. The American Innovation and Competitiveness Act that recently passed the Senate would authorize up to $250bn in spending (around $200bn of this appears to be new money that does not overlap with existing spending). Most of the proposals are similar to policies in President Biden’s American Jobs Plan. However, much of this spending would depend on future Congresses to appropriate, making the overall amount somewhat uncertain. Similarly, a narrow infrastructure bill that passes separately from the larger reconciliation bill might add somewhat to the total. Overall, if Congress approves a reconciliation bill of around $2.5 trillion over ten years, this suggests a total bump to spending approaching $3 trillion over that period.</p>\n<p><i>Q: Will taxes increase?</i></p>\n<p><b>Assuming Congress passes any legislation using the reconciliation process, tax increases still seem likely.</b>Any bipartisan agreement on infrastructure or competitiveness is unlikely to include meaningful tax increases. If those bills pass and reduce support for subsequent reconciliation legislation, it is conceivable that Congress could fail to enact any tax increases this year, or before the mid-term election in 2022. However, this scenario looks fairly unlikely.</p>\n<p>Instead, we assume that Congress will pass around $1.5 trillion in tax increases over the next ten years, as outlined in Exhibit 5. A corporate tax increase still seems fairly likely, in our view, with a rate of around 25%. Some of the other international corporate provisions the Biden Administration has proposed also look likely to pass, though we expect the specifics to diverge from the Treasury proposals. Despite the recent attention a global minimum tax has received, we expect Congress to focus instead on revising the existing GILTI tax, which serves a similar purpose. We do not expect Congress to pass the separate minimum tax on book income that the Administration has proposed, as it looks unlikely to win unanimous support among Democrats and would add complexity without generating substantial revenue.</p>\n<p>On the individual side, we continue to believe a capital gains tax increase is slightly more likely than not, though we expect it would rise only to 28% rather than the ordinary income tax rate. It also seems fairly unlikely that Congress will adopt the Administration’s proposal that unrealized capital gains should be taxed at death, as there has already been pushback among centrist Democrats against the concept.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4ce834610ea19589696b1afcd4ca32a3\" tg-width=\"1064\" tg-height=\"1379\"></p>\n<p><i>Q: When will all of this happen?</i></p>\n<p><b>We expect a budget resolution to pass in July, a narrow infrastructure bill in September, and reconciliation legislation in Q4.</b>As noted earlier, before they use the budget reconciliation legislation to pass a fiscal package, congressional Democrats will first need to pass a budget resolution. We expect the details to become clear over the next few weeks, with passage ahead of the congressional recess that starts August 6.</p>\n<p>In September, we expect Congress to focus on other issues. First, some type of infrastructure legislation seems likely to pass by late September ahead of the Sep. 30 expiration of the highway program. A short-term extension is possible absent an agreement on a long-term extension.</p>\n<p>Second, Congress will need to extend spending authority for the rest of the federal government past September 30, the end of the fiscal year. At this point, a short-term continuing resolution looks likely, which will leave longer-term decisions until late in the year. The risk of a government shutdown around this deadline is low, in our view.</p>\n<p>Third, Congress will need to address the debt limit. We expect that Congress will need to raise the limit by early October, with a chance it might need to be raised in September. In theory, this could be done as part of a reconciliation bill (either the large reconciliation package we expect Congress to consider, or a standalone bill dealing with just the debt limit). However, the debt limit cannot be suspended under the reconciliation process, only raised, and this would involve specifying an explicit and very large dollar amount. Instead, we expect Democratic leaders to pass a debt limit suspension along with the extension of spending authority, though other scenarios are clearly possible.</p>\n<p>With those issues out of the way, we expect congressional Democrats to attempt to finalize a fiscal package in Q4. It is possible that the legislation could be ready for a vote as early as October. However, since essentially every Democrat in both chambers of Congress will need to agree, reaching a final political compromise could take longer. It is entirely possible that it takes until December for Congress to finalize the fiscal package, ahead of the holiday recess at year-end.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>A Broad Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal Is Unlikely: Goldman</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\">\nA Broad Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal Is Unlikely: Goldman\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-22 15:28 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/broad-bipartisan-infrastructure-deal-unlikely-goldman><strong>zerohedge</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>In its latest Q&A assessment of the state of US fiscal policy, Goldman's economics team writes that while it \"still looks broadly on track to meet our expectations, risks continue to tilt in the ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/broad-bipartisan-infrastructure-deal-unlikely-goldman\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{".DJI":"道琼斯",".SPX":"S&P 500 Index",".IXIC":"NASDAQ Composite","SPY":"标普500ETF"},"source_url":"https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/broad-bipartisan-infrastructure-deal-unlikely-goldman","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1195801914","content_text":"In its latest Q&A assessment of the state of US fiscal policy, Goldman's economics team writes that while it \"still looks broadly on track to meet our expectations, risks continue to tilt in the direction of a smaller spending boost and smaller tax hike than the roughly $3 trillion and $1.5 trillion over ten years that we expect.\" The bank then notes that \"while a bipartisan deal on a broad infrastructure package cannot be ruled out, we continue to think the odds are against it, as there seems to be little agreement on financing it.\" Instead, Goldman expects Congress to pass a narrower infrastructure package focused mainly on transportation. If so, expect congressional Democrats to begin moving a broader fiscal package under the reconciliation process.\nReading recent headlines, one would be left with the impression of a wide range of spending outcomes – a boost of a few hundred billion to as much as $6 trillion over ten years – but the range of outcomes is not as wide as these figures imply. Most of the “traditional” infrastructure President Biden has proposed looks likely to pass, along with substantial R&D spending and renewal of personal tax credits that expire at year end. Together, these cost around 1% of GDP on an annual basis over the next few years. The remainder of the Biden agenda might boost spending by another1% of GDP, but Congress is expected to pare these proposals considerably.\nMeanwhile, tax increases also still look likely, assuming that Democrats pass legislation using the reconciliation process. That's why Goldman has not changed its views much in this area, and still expectsthe corporate tax rate to settle around 25% along with more incremental versions of the international tax changes Biden has proposed.A capital gains rate increase is a close call, but a 28%capital gains rate is slightly more likely than the status quo.\nFinally, the likely timing of fiscal action has also changed more noticeably,with likely enactment slipping from mid/late Q3 to Q4.This is due in large part to the continuation of bipartisan negotiations for longer than we had expected, which has led congressional Democratic leaders to delay the first procedural steps necessary to pass a reconciliation bill.\nBelow we republish the key aspects of Goldman's FIscal Policy Status Check Q&A:\nQ: Will there be a bipartisan deal on a broad infrastructure bill?\nA broad bipartisan infrastructure package still looks somewhat unlikely to us.Negotiations in the Senate have progressed and the odds have increased somewhat that a bipartisan bill covering many areas in President Biden’s program might pass. However, we still think there are obstacles to a broad deal and expect that most of the fiscal boost Congress approves this year will come through a reconciliation bill that passes with only Democratic support.\nUnsurprisingly, there appears to be the most agreement on boosting traditional infrastructure spending. As shown in Exhibit 1, the current Senate bipartisan proposal comes close to matching the White House proposal in most areas of transportation infrastructure.\nMore controversial is how to address non-traditional infrastructure and how to finance the cost of any new spending. The latest bipartisan effort appears to have made some inroads on the former. It includes $65bn for broadband, which falls short of the roughly $100bn that the White House proposed but it would be the greatest federal investment to date and seems close enough to the Democratic target that this issue alone looks unlikely to hold up an agreement.\n\nOther areas of non-traditional infrastructure in bipartisan discussions are much farther away from White House goals. Senate Republicans look unlikely to support substantial funding for electric vehicles or construction of affordable housing, for example. Clean energy is more of a gray area; Congress has previously approved, on a bipartisan basis, a number of different incentives for energy efficiency and renewable energy like wind, solar, and biofuels. However, the program President Biden proposes is on a much larger scale than existing subsidies and the latest bipartisan proposal includes only a fraction of what the White House is seeking in this area.\nThe greatest obstacle to prior political efforts at enacting an infrastructure program has been financing it. Here, there appears to have been much less progress (Exhibit 2). Each side has drawn lines they seem unlikely to cross: most Republicans oppose reversing any of the 2017 tax law or otherwise increasing income taxes—corporate or personal—to pay for the proposal. Most Democrats, including the White House, have ruled out increasing the user fees that finance most current infrastructure spending and appear uninterested in redirecting unspent COVID-relief funds.\nThe most likely area of overlapping support is closing the “tax gap” through greater enforcement of existing tax laws, but even this faces challenges. Congressional estimates of the potential revenue gain from closing the tax gap are much smaller than the Administration’s. The Congressional Budget Office estimated in 2020 that increasing IRS funding by $20 billion over ten years would produce $60bn in additional revenue, while a $40bn increase would raise $103bn (i.e., the first $20bn bump would raise $3 for each dollar spent, while the next $20bn bump in funding would raise only $2 for each dollar of extra spending). While it is possible that CBO might revise its estimate in light of arguments from the Administration, or that Republicans might agree to policies beyond an IRS funding increase, it seems unlikely that additional IRS funding would come anywhere close to covering the cost of an infrastructure proposal, at least according to the official estimate that Congress will rely on.\nIn our view, the only way that Congress will reach a bipartisan agreement on a broad infrastructure package is if lawmakers decide not to offset the new spending with savings elsewhere. So far, the White House and congressional Republicans have insisted that the bill should be paid for.\nQ: Without a bipartisan deal, what happens with infrastructure legislation?\nIf a broad bipartisan deal fails, a narrow one is likely to pass.While a broad bipartisan agreement covering several aspects of the Biden proposal looks difficult to achieve, a narrower deal that primarily boosts transportation infrastructure looks likely to become law, for three reasons.\nFirst, federal programs for most areas of traditional infrastructure—highways, public transit, rail, airports, waterways and drinking/ wastewater—already exist. The largest of them, which are collectively funded by the Highway Trust Fund (HTF), expire September 30. Traditionally, Congress reauthorizes these programs in five-year increments,sometimes after one or more short-term extensions until lawmakers reach agreement.The legislation to renew these programs cannot pass via the reconciliation process, soDemocrats will need Republican support for any short- or long-term extension. Theupshot is that it is nearly certain that some type of infrastructure legislation passes on abipartisan basis to avoid a lapse in the programs.\nSecond, some progressive Democrats seem likely to oppose an infrastructure bill that does not include substantial new policies related to climate and clean energy. Without their votes, greater support among congressional Republicans in the House and Senate would be necessary. To win greater support, the bill might need to narrow its scope further, to the point that it mainly extends existing infrastructure spending programs.\nThird, financing a narrow infrastructure deal would not be nearly as difficult as financing the sort of bill currently under discussion. Existing transportation infrastructure programs already have dedicated revenue streams that fund most of their spending. Financing an incremental boost in spending on existing programs would be far easier than finding bipartisan agreement on several hundred billion dollars in new revenue or spending cuts.\nQ: What difference does it make if Congress reaches a bipartisan deal on infrastructure?\nA broad bipartisan infrastructure bill could reduce the odds that the rest of the Biden fiscal agenda becomes law. A broader bipartisan deal that overlaps with many areas of the Biden proposal could reduce centrist Democratic support for passing subsequent fiscal legislation through the reconciliation process. If this occurred, the spending boost over the next few years might be smaller than we have been expecting but corporate and capital gains taxes would also be less likely to increase.\nBy contrast, a narrower bipartisan deal limited to traditional infrastructure would still leave the door open for Democrats to pass a separate fiscal package through the reconciliation process that addresses much of the remainder of President Biden’s proposals. Relative to the scenario in which Congress passes a broad bipartisan infrastructure deal, passing a narrow transportation bill followed by a separate reconciliation bill would likely result in a greater overall increase in spending, partly offset by tax increases.\nQ: What are the risks around spending levels under the different scenarios?\nCongress seems very likely to approve spending and tax benefits equal to at least 1% of GDP over the next few years, but unlikely to go beyond 2% of GDP.Headlines regarding fiscal proposals over the last few weeks have run the gamut from a boost of only a few hundred billion at the low end (the Republican infrastructure proposal) to $6 trillion over ten years at the high end (the reported spending total Senate Democrats are considering).\nHowever, these large figures overstate the range of realistic scenarios. At a minimum, we expect Congress to enact three sets of policies this year: the infrastructure proposals that already have bipartisan support, the R&D and manufacturing incentives that recently passed the Senate, and extension of the personal tax credits that Congress approved earlier this year. As Exhibit 3 shows, these policies would total around 1% of GDP by 2023, and would cost about $1.6 trillion over the next ten years. At this point, it is difficult to imagine Congress approving less this year.\nAt the other end of the range of outcomes, it seems unlikely that Congress will enact spending worth more than 2% of GDP on an annual basis. As shown in Exhibit 3, Congress would need to pass nearly all of President Biden’s proposals to reach this level, or around $4.25 trillion over the next ten years.\nThe uncertainty is mainly related to new benefits for child care, education, and paid leave under the “American Families Plan” as well as the remaining areas of infrastructure that any sort of bipartisan infrastructure deal would likely omit. These areas depend most on the use of budget reconciliation legislation, as it seems very unlikely that any of the proposals would attract much Republican support.\nThat said, even if Congress enacts nearly all of President Biden’s proposed policies, fiscal support will diminish substantially from 2021 to 2022. Exhibit 4 shows the deficit effect of legislation enacted since the pandemic began, as well as the fiscal effects of President Biden’s proposals using our own categorization.\nQ: How much will legislation this year increase spending?\nWe think the overall boost could amount to $2.5 to $3 trillion over the next ten years.Assuming congressional Democrats take advantage of the reconciliation process to pass fiscal legislation, there will still be two constraints on the amount of additional spending Congress might approve.\nCentrist Democrats in the House and Senate are likely to object to legislation that raises the deficit substantially over the next ten years. This will become relevant in the next few weeks, when Congress considers its budget resolution. To use the reconciliation process, the resolution must include instructions to the relevant committees to increase the deficit (or alternatively to increase spending and increase taxes) by specific amounts. The deficit impact of the reconciliation bill that follows will be limited to those amounts. It is extremely unlikely that any Republicans will vote for the Democratic budget resolution, so every Democratic senator and virtually every Democratic member of the House will need to vote for the resolution. It is not yet clear how much deficit expansion Democrats will be willing to support, but we expect centrist Democrats to draw the line at somewhere around $1 trillion. For context, President Biden’s recent budget submission to Congress proposed increasing the deficit by $800bn over the next ten years.\nAssuming a limit on the overall amount of deficit expansion, the amount of tax increases and other budgetary savings that lawmakers can agree to will determine how much they can increase spending. At the moment, we expect that Congress might be able to agree on around $1.5 trillion in budgetary savings, nearly all of which could come from tax increases, as discussed later. If so, a reconciliation bill would be limited to around $2.5 trillion in new spending. However, we expect that some additional spending might be approved as part of other legislation. The American Innovation and Competitiveness Act that recently passed the Senate would authorize up to $250bn in spending (around $200bn of this appears to be new money that does not overlap with existing spending). Most of the proposals are similar to policies in President Biden’s American Jobs Plan. However, much of this spending would depend on future Congresses to appropriate, making the overall amount somewhat uncertain. Similarly, a narrow infrastructure bill that passes separately from the larger reconciliation bill might add somewhat to the total. Overall, if Congress approves a reconciliation bill of around $2.5 trillion over ten years, this suggests a total bump to spending approaching $3 trillion over that period.\nQ: Will taxes increase?\nAssuming Congress passes any legislation using the reconciliation process, tax increases still seem likely.Any bipartisan agreement on infrastructure or competitiveness is unlikely to include meaningful tax increases. If those bills pass and reduce support for subsequent reconciliation legislation, it is conceivable that Congress could fail to enact any tax increases this year, or before the mid-term election in 2022. However, this scenario looks fairly unlikely.\nInstead, we assume that Congress will pass around $1.5 trillion in tax increases over the next ten years, as outlined in Exhibit 5. A corporate tax increase still seems fairly likely, in our view, with a rate of around 25%. Some of the other international corporate provisions the Biden Administration has proposed also look likely to pass, though we expect the specifics to diverge from the Treasury proposals. Despite the recent attention a global minimum tax has received, we expect Congress to focus instead on revising the existing GILTI tax, which serves a similar purpose. We do not expect Congress to pass the separate minimum tax on book income that the Administration has proposed, as it looks unlikely to win unanimous support among Democrats and would add complexity without generating substantial revenue.\nOn the individual side, we continue to believe a capital gains tax increase is slightly more likely than not, though we expect it would rise only to 28% rather than the ordinary income tax rate. It also seems fairly unlikely that Congress will adopt the Administration’s proposal that unrealized capital gains should be taxed at death, as there has already been pushback among centrist Democrats against the concept.\n\nQ: When will all of this happen?\nWe expect a budget resolution to pass in July, a narrow infrastructure bill in September, and reconciliation legislation in Q4.As noted earlier, before they use the budget reconciliation legislation to pass a fiscal package, congressional Democrats will first need to pass a budget resolution. We expect the details to become clear over the next few weeks, with passage ahead of the congressional recess that starts August 6.\nIn September, we expect Congress to focus on other issues. First, some type of infrastructure legislation seems likely to pass by late September ahead of the Sep. 30 expiration of the highway program. A short-term extension is possible absent an agreement on a long-term extension.\nSecond, Congress will need to extend spending authority for the rest of the federal government past September 30, the end of the fiscal year. At this point, a short-term continuing resolution looks likely, which will leave longer-term decisions until late in the year. The risk of a government shutdown around this deadline is low, in our view.\nThird, Congress will need to address the debt limit. We expect that Congress will need to raise the limit by early October, with a chance it might need to be raised in September. In theory, this could be done as part of a reconciliation bill (either the large reconciliation package we expect Congress to consider, or a standalone bill dealing with just the debt limit). However, the debt limit cannot be suspended under the reconciliation process, only raised, and this would involve specifying an explicit and very large dollar amount. Instead, we expect Democratic leaders to pass a debt limit suspension along with the extension of spending authority, though other scenarios are clearly possible.\nWith those issues out of the way, we expect congressional Democrats to attempt to finalize a fiscal package in Q4. It is possible that the legislation could be ready for a vote as early as October. However, since essentially every Democrat in both chambers of Congress will need to agree, reaching a final political compromise could take longer. It is entirely possible that it takes until December for Congress to finalize the fiscal package, ahead of the holiday recess at year-end.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":109,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":129926249,"gmtCreate":1624353020181,"gmtModify":1703834192839,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yes&nbsp;","listText":"Yes&nbsp;","text":"Yes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/129926249","repostId":"1129553884","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129553884","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624349728,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1129553884?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-22 16:15","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Here are Bank of America’s top internet stock picks for the second half","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129553884","media":"cnbc","summary":"It has been a disappointing first half of the year for tech stocks, but Bank of America is bullish o","content":"<div>\n<p>It has been a disappointing first half of the year for tech stocks, but Bank of America is bullish on some of the biggest names in the space over the next six months.\nTheNasdaq Compositehas lagged ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/21/top-picks-bank-of-americas-favorite-internet-stocks-for-second-half.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The company produces and sells its own medicines, including those for treating colds.\nHong Kong-listedFu Shou Yuan Internationaldoes business in the death care services industry, operating cemeteries and funeral homes in 45 cities across China. The company reported a 3% increase in net profit last year to 757.3 million yuan ($118.3 million).\nNarrowing down by industry\nIn this screen, Credit Suisse analysts first selected industries with pricing advantages. Then they picked companies with high pricing power.\nThe study of companies from around the world yielded only one Chinese stock with an “outperform” rating:Tianqi Lithium, which mines and produces the key metal for electric vehicle batteries.\nDespite that optimistic outlook, Tianqi Lithium has operated at a loss for the last two years, after returning a profit to shareholders in 2018. The company reported net loss to shareholders of 247.9 million yuan in the first quarter of 2021, half of a 500.3 million loss a year ago.\nScreening by region\nThe Credit Suisse analysts then applied the same industry and company screen to the region of Asia alone. These are “companies which our analysts assess to have the strongest pricing power within sectors with strong or very strong pricing power,” the report said.\nElectric car start-upsNioandXpengwere among the few Chinese companies that appeared on the list.\nBoth companies operate primarily in China, although they are listed in the U.S. and have begun toenter the Norwegian market.The screen did not mention Li Auto, another major Chinese electric car start-up listed in the U.S.\nYonyou Network Technologywas another Chinese stock that made the list. The company sells enterprise software for managing supply chains, human resources and other business operations. In addition to China, Yonyou has operations in Singapore and other countries in the region.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":231,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":129928717,"gmtCreate":1624352974339,"gmtModify":1703834192188,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Strategic&nbsp;","listText":"Strategic&nbsp;","text":"Strategic","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/129928717","repostId":"2145035785","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2145035785","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624351500,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2145035785?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-22 16:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Robinhood Traders Keep Buying These Stocks, What do the Pros Say About Them?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2145035785","media":"TipRanks","summary":"Since the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, the stock market has embarked on a journey ","content":"<div>\n<p>Since the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, the stock market has embarked on a journey with ups and downs, the likes of which had been unprecedented. As the saga goes, the virus set in, ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/robinhood-traders-keep-buying-stocks-125038479.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"yahoofinance","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

This, coupled with the hopeful possibility of building wealth directly from one’s phone and/or couch, brought a new generation of retail traders to the market. They began to push speculative equities and securities around in their search for quick value.\nThe trading platform Robinhood has been central to this stock market tale, allowing commission-free trading with a streamlined, easy-to-use mobile application to “democratize finance for all,” as is its motto. Its popularity culminated in a one-in-a-lifetime short squeeze in late January 2021, wherein highly motivated Reddit users attempted, and succeeded, to push up the price of GameStop Corp. (GME) stock in order to force hedge funds to cover their massively shorted shares.\nThis particular instance brought about massive negative sentiment for the growing financial application company, as Robinhood was forced to halt buy orders for several high volatility stocks in order to not go bankrupt themselves. The phenomenon brought Robinhood into global headlines and even had U.S. government officials using terms like “meme stocks.”\nCritics of Robinhood’s platform accuse it of gamifying the stock market with a sensationalizing user interface, and essentially creating an accessible and legal casino for anyone willing to play. The app allows users to quickly trade even the most leveraged and risky positions, including complex derivatives such as options and other financial tools. While other similar mobile platforms also allow this, Robinhood users go through much less data and cautionary information before having their trades executed.\nDespite the bad press, including congressional hearings with Robinhood’s CEO, the platform has since continued to grow its user base.\nKeeping an eye on retail traders’ interest in stocks has become a full-time job, and can mean the difference between massive gains or just another week of FOMO. Many websites provide trending stock tickers or even analytics on subreddit mentions of publicly traded companies. As Robinhood is mostly used by younger retail traders, looking at its top-traded stocks can provide insight into what direction certain stocks may be going.\nTwo stocks frequently found at the top of Robinhood traders' accounts are Tesla Inc. and Apple Inc. Both tech-savvy companies have seen their share prices rise dramatically over the course of 2020. Furthermore, both underwent stock splits, which made their stocks accessible to more people, resulting in a lot of online buzz.\nTesla Inc. (TSLA) \nFive-star analyst Jed Dorsheimer of Canaccord Genuity Capital Markets reiterated a Buy rating on Tesla, with an optimistic price target of $812. This suggests a possible upside of 30.27% from Friday’s closing price of $623.31. (See Tesla stock charts on TipRanks)\nDorsheimer wrote that Tesla is “innovating past the battery” while other manufacturers are playing catch up. He was bullish on a long term basis, arguing that the car company is “creating an energy brand and an Apple-esque ecosystem of products with customer focused connectivity, seamlessly marrying car, solar, and back-up power.”\nThe analyst did, however, call the new Model S Plaid an “ostensibly unnecessary $130k car,” but that does not mean consumers won’t like the finished product enough to not buy it.\nOn TipRanks, TSLA has an analyst rating consensus of Hold, based on 9 Buy, 7 Hold, and 7 Sell ratings. The average analyst Tesla price target is $620.70, reflecting a potential downside of 0.42% over the next twelve months.\n\nApple Inc. (AAPL)\nAnother consistently top stock pick from Robinhood traders, Apple Inc. has seen its share price climb more than five-fold over the last five years. The most valuable company in the world, with a market cap of over $2 trillion, the company has always had a loyal customer base, which seems to translate into loyal shareholders as well. (See Apple stock charts on TipRanks)\nDaniel Ives of Wedbush Securities was bullish following Apple’s new updates, which were announced during its WWDC conference. Ives maintained a Buy rating and a $185 price target, indicating a possible 41.81% upside from Apple’s Friday closing price of $130.46.\nThe five-star analyst wrote that Apple had placed a strong focus on user privacy concerns, which puts the company “on a collision course with Facebook around the ability for users to block data tracking.” However, Ives was encouraged by the improvements made by the new macOS Monterey desktop operating system, stating that it will support the “broadest lineup of Macs in history.”\nOn TipRanks, AAPL has an analyst rating consensus of Moderate Buy, based on 20 Buy, 5 Hold, and 2 Sell ratings. The average analyst Apple price target is $157.88, reflecting a potential 12-month upside of 21.02%.\n\nDisclaimer: The opinions expressed in this article are solely those of the featured analyst.

Retail investors, often co-ordinating their actions on online forums such as Reddit’s r/WallStreetBets and in some cases deliberately targeting hedge fund short sellers, drove up the price of stocks such as GameStop and cinema chain AMC Entertainment in January and again in recent weeks.

Retail investors, often co-ordinating their actions on online forums such as Reddit’s r/WallStreetBets and in some cases deliberately targeting hedge fund short sellers, drove up the price of stocks such as GameStop and cinema chain AMC Entertainment in January and again in recent weeks. GameStop, for instance, soared from less than $20 at the start of the year to more than $480 at its January peak.\nThat led to big losses for some funds, including US-based Melvin Capital, run by Steve Cohen protégé Gabe Plotkin, and Light Street Capital, run by Glen Kacher, a former Tiger cub who worked at Julian Robertson’s Tiger Management. However, the funds remain in operation, and shortly after its losses Melvin received a $2.75bn investment from Cohen’s Point72 Asset Management and Ken Griffin’s Citadel.\n“The decision to close down is related to thinking the equity long-short model is challenged,” said Kronawitter.\n“There are way too many fish in the pond with the same strategy of long-short,” he added. “The traditional edge is being arbed away [eroded by other investors], there’s an oversupply of capital.”\nA person close to the fund said the decision to shut was unrelated to the meme stock rally. The fund quickly rebounded in the wake of January’s turmoil and made back “a fair share” of the losses, the person added.\nAmong other funds hit, Melvin was still down about 44.7 per cent this year to the end of last month, while Light Street was down about 20.1 per cent.\nKronawitter, who previously worked at US billionaire John Paulson’s hedge fund and Merrill Lynch, had made double-digit gains at White Square in 2015 and 2016, said a person who had seen the numbers, while last year it made about 19 per cent.\nIn the investor letter announcing the fund’s closure, White Square said that last year, despite that year’s strong performance, two large investors had opted to withdraw their cash and put it in cheap passive funds or private equity. “We experienced first-hand the shift in trend away from hedge fund investing to cheaper alternatives,” it added.\nAccording to the letter, White Square had been due to receive investor inflows again in May this year, but instead decided to shut the fund.\n“The arbitrage opportunities have diminished with both the onslaught of capital caused by central bank monetary interventions, as well as much improved dissemination of information, bringing up the question to what degree the same fees can be justified,” it said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":206,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":129921216,"gmtCreate":1624352905535,"gmtModify":1703834190059,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It will&nbsp;","listText":"It will&nbsp;","text":"It will","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/129921216","repostId":"1162609529","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1162609529","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624351885,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1162609529?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-22 16:51","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Can Emerging Markets Continue Moving Higher?

The fund -- named after Zhang’s grandmothers -- will be used for teacher training, edutech infrastructure and dormitory construction, among other purposes, according to the statement.</p>\n<p>Currently China’s fourth-richest person with a net worth of about $44.5 billion, the creator of viral hits like TikTok and news app Toutiao is joining fellow tech leaders including Meituan founder Wang Xing and Tencent Holdings Ltd.’s Pony Ma in stepping up philanthropic efforts, just as Xi Jinping’s government tightens its control over the tech sector. Zhang’s ByteDance -- the world’s largest startup valued at north of $250 billion in recent private trades -- is among 34 internet firms that pledged in April to conduct internal inspections as part of Beijing’s antitrust crackdown.</p>\n<p>Last month, Zhang made a surprise announcement that he’ll step down as ByteDance’s chief executive officer by the year-end and instead focus on longer-term strategy. He said at the time he’ll also spend time on educational charity. The $77 million marks the biggest single donation yet by the billionaire, who last year gave 10 million yuan to his alma mater.</p>\n<p>Education is proving to be a popular cause for China’s tech giants. Arch-rival Ma’s Tencent in April pledged $7.7 billion toward a “sustainable social values program” that will tackle issues including scientific education.

The fund -- named after Zhang’s grandmothers -- will be used for teacher training, edutech infrastructure and dormitory construction, among other purposes, according to the statement.\nCurrently China’s fourth-richest person with a net worth of about $44.5 billion, the creator of viral hits like TikTok and news app Toutiao is joining fellow tech leaders including Meituan founder Wang Xing and Tencent Holdings Ltd.’s Pony Ma in stepping up philanthropic efforts, just as Xi Jinping’s government tightens its control over the tech sector. Zhang’s ByteDance -- the world’s largest startup valued at north of $250 billion in recent private trades -- is among 34 internet firms that pledged in April to conduct internal inspections as part of Beijing’s antitrust crackdown.\nLast month, Zhang made a surprise announcement that he’ll step down as ByteDance’s chief executive officer by the year-end and instead focus on longer-term strategy. He said at the time he’ll also spend time on educational charity. The $77 million marks the biggest single donation yet by the billionaire, who last year gave 10 million yuan to his alma mater.\nEducation is proving to be a popular cause for China’s tech giants. Arch-rival Ma’s Tencent in April pledged $7.7 billion toward a “sustainable social values program” that will tackle issues including scientific education. Meituan this month said founder Wang was donating a $2.3 billion stake in the food delivery giant to his own foundation, which will go toward education and science.\nByteDance, which has in recent years ventured into online tutoring as a growth driver, recorded a $2.1 billion operating loss last year on revenue of $34 billion, the company told employees earlier this month.

While it may have yet to be EBIT profitable, the company is setting itself up to be the CPaaS leader with a top notch customer engagement platform, following its acquisition of the No.1 Customer Data Platform [CDP] in the world: Segment. Investors should understand by now that the secular tailwinds driving digitisation are not going to reverse, and therefore TWLO is in a prime position to benefit as the platform for the world on their customer engagement needs. Add on the impending deprecation of third-party cookies, companies would likely find TWLO even more important in their customer engagement efforts moving forward. At its current valuation, investors should find that TWLO may actually be valued at a discount to many of the stocks listed in the SaaS space.</p>\n<p><b>Twilio is Not your Typical SaaS Stock</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aec3449de8bbaa50dabd8b4343c41583\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"371\"><span>DBNER. Data source: Company filings</span></p>\n<p>Twilio’s value proposition as a CPaaS is unlike the typical SaaS company that makes the most of its revenue through recurring subscriptions, and increase or maintain their DBNER or DBNRR by cross-selling into other products or up-selling their customers by taking on more seats. TWLO’s revenue is mainly based on usage. Therefore the company makes more revenue when customers use its platform more, and make less when customers use it less. Therefore, because it’s based on usage we could easily determine the strength of its customers' usage simply by observing its DBNER trend.TWLO’s DBNER&nbsp;“increases when such Active Customer Accounts increase their usage of a product, extend their usage of a product to new applications or adopt a new product. Twilio’s Dollar-Based Net Expansion Rate decreases when such Active Customer Accounts cease or reduce their usage of a product or when the Company lowers usage prices on a product.”</p>\n<p>Therefore, we could clearly observe from TWLO’s strong DBNER trend that its customers have been consistently increasing their net usage of its platform over the years, which actually already begun before COVID-19 hit. TWLO’s DBNER has been largely consistent as well and the company was also confident of achieving a&nbsp;normalized DBNER in the range of 130s&nbsp;moving forward.</p>\n<p>Moreover, the company has also highlighted that it continued to see increased use cases in its platform in many industries, and in particular in telehealth, which is another market that has been wrongly perceived to be only a COVID-19 phenomenon that has no sustainability. We have previously covered in a&nbsp;recent article on Teladoc&nbsp;(TDOC) on why telehealth’s rapid growth has begun well before the pandemic hit and is still very early in its growth phase as the market is expected to grow by more than 20% CAGR over the next 10 years.

Data source: S&amp;P Capital IQ</span></p>\n<p>Nevertheless, investors should be reminded that TWLO has yet to turn an operating profit, even though the company has guided to a long term operating margin of 28% over time. Investors should understand that TWLO would also not be expected to turn an operating profit anytime soon as the company is still in a heavy investment mode (as seen in its high SG&amp;A and R&amp;D margins) as it sees a lot of opportunities to invest and also possibly acquire, where it had made a number of high profile acquisitions such as Segment, ValueFirst, Syniverse, Zipwhip among others. The company strongly emphasized this point:</p>\n<blockquote>\n But that doesn't mean that we won't be profitable, can't be profitable. I mean, we're growing at very elevated levels, certainly better than our corporate average, if you will. It's just that the rest of our business is growing really fast, right? So for it to really show up in our financials, based on our current trajectory, something else would have to slow down, which is not what we want. It's not what you want. It's not what anybody wants really, right? So I think in due course, all these things will happen.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Therefore, TWLO investors are asked to demonstrate lots of patience, give time for TWLO to grow into its profitability and allow them to continue scaling up its revenue growth first. Consensus estimates see the company continuing to grow rapidly at about 44.5% YoY for FY 21 and also above 30% YoY subsequently. TWLO has also committed to grow its revenue above 30% for the next four years, so investors need to give TWLO time to deliver the goods, and this stock is therefore not for short term investors who are looking for a 2 to 3 year horizon, or a company that is prioritizing profitability over growth.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1059052c9408212d41ace9bed94cdd4a\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"698\"><span>Revenue metrics.

While it may have yet to be EBIT profitable, the company is setting itself up to be the CPaaS leader with a top notch customer engagement platform, following its acquisition of the No.1 Customer Data Platform [CDP] in the world: Segment. Investors should understand by now that the secular tailwinds driving digitisation are not going to reverse, and therefore TWLO is in a prime position to benefit as the platform for the world on their customer engagement needs. Add on the impending deprecation of third-party cookies, companies would likely find TWLO even more important in their customer engagement efforts moving forward. At its current valuation, investors should find that TWLO may actually be valued at a discount to many of the stocks listed in the SaaS space.\nTwilio is Not your Typical SaaS Stock\nDBNER. Data source: Company filings\nTwilio’s value proposition as a CPaaS is unlike the typical SaaS company that makes the most of its revenue through recurring subscriptions, and increase or maintain their DBNER or DBNRR by cross-selling into other products or up-selling their customers by taking on more seats. TWLO’s revenue is mainly based on usage. Therefore the company makes more revenue when customers use its platform more, and make less when customers use it less. Therefore, because it’s based on usage we could easily determine the strength of its customers' usage simply by observing its DBNER trend.TWLO’s DBNER “increases when such Active Customer Accounts increase their usage of a product, extend their usage of a product to new applications or adopt a new product. Twilio’s Dollar-Based Net Expansion Rate decreases when such Active Customer Accounts cease or reduce their usage of a product or when the Company lowers usage prices on a product.”\nTherefore, we could clearly observe from TWLO’s strong DBNER trend that its customers have been consistently increasing their net usage of its platform over the years, which actually already begun before COVID-19 hit. TWLO’s DBNER has been largely consistent as well and the company was also confident of achieving a normalized DBNER in the range of 130s moving forward.\nMoreover, the company has also highlighted that it continued to see increased use cases in its platform in many industries, and in particular in telehealth, which is another market that has been wrongly perceived to be only a COVID-19 phenomenon that has no sustainability. We have previously covered in a recent article on Teladoc (TDOC) on why telehealth’s rapid growth has begun well before the pandemic hit and is still very early in its growth phase as the market is expected to grow by more than 20% CAGR over the next 10 years. Therefore the secular tailwinds that are driving digitisation across many different industries would also drive increased business to TWLO as the market’s leading cloud communications and customer engagement platform.\nSaaS DBNER/DBNRR. Source: Atom Finance\nThis is especially so when we look across the SaaS space. Investors would be hard-pressed to find many companies that boast a NRR that has been consistently above 130% like TWLO (median: 120%). Another company that also uses usage-based pricing: Snowflake (SNOW) had a NRR of 168% in the latest quarter. Investors may think that these companies that adopt usage-based pricing may suffer if their customers drop off their usage rates drastically. However, TWLO and SNOW have both proven that their platforms are so sticky and offer so much value that once you are on it, you would keep using it more and more over time, and also expand usage into new products. Therefore, this usage-based pricing model has an inherently powerful booster to the company’s topline as use-cases kept increasing, something that a typical subscription-based ARR model may not be able to replicate without a usage-based model.\nMarket Truly Underestimated Segment's Acquisition\nIn our opinion, we think the market really underplayed Segment’s acquisition for TWLO. First, Segment is the No.1 CDP worldwide ranked by IDC, so we think TWLO has done an amazing deal there. In fact, the company emphasized how important they thought the acquisition meant to them (emphasis by us):\n\n We think the \n industrial logic of Segment plus Twilio is just a -- it's not just a home run.It's a grand slam. I think for us, having data capabilities married with communications capabilities is absolutely essential to deliver that rich customer experience.\n\nNotwithstanding the significant dilution funded from the mostly equity deal, I think investors should understand the strategic importance of having the best-of-breed CDP in its portfolio, which is crucially important to TWLO’s underlying CPaaS offering as it now confers its customers the access to real-time analytics with a unified view across disparate systems.\nLevel of impact of CDP on success metrics. Data source: Advertiser Perceptions; Treasure Data\nWe could observe from the above survey conducted with marketers across different industries on the profound impact of having a CDP in their marketing KPIs. The large majority of the respondents noted an improvement across all the metrics listed in this survey with a remarkably high percentage of the respondents (33% to 45%) indicating “significant improvement” in the respective categories.\nBenefits of CDP according to marketing technology decision makers.

The question that a lot of investors are asking now is, \"Should I buy Biogen stock after this big FDA approval for its Alzheimer's disease drug?\" Brian, what should investors be factoring in to their decision making process right now? What's your take on whether or not Biogen is a buy right now?\nBrian Orelli:From a valuation standpoint, it's easy to look at historical data and see where they've been trading.

Furthermore, with stocks at all time highs, it is to be expected that most of the June open interest is below the current SPX spot price.

Recent growth in single stock option activity has been concentrated in low-share-price stocks, leaving a shar prise in contract-volume over the past two weeks that has not been matched by notional volume.

In fact,the percentage of SPX option volume happening in 3rd Friday expirations is at an all-time low,and is now smaller than the percentage happening in Monday and Wednesday expirations. One explanation for heightened ultra-short-dated volumes is the strong single stock volumes: and here an interest suggesting from Goldman - \"to the extent market makers are unable to cover the short single stock gamma generated by retail investors’ call buying, they may be actively trading long positions in strips of ultra-short-dated SPX index options to offset this gamma.\"\n\nWhy is this important? because if this trend is large enough, it directly contributes to low implied and realized correlation.Ironically, by ramping single name, \"most-shorted names\", retail investors are ushering a period of unorthodox calm across the rest of the market!","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":65,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":167293864,"gmtCreate":1624268728758,"gmtModify":1703832009605,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok&nbsp;","listText":"Ok&nbsp;","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/167293864","repostId":"1154249454","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1154249454","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624230573,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1154249454?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-21 07:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Nike, FedEx, Johnson & Johnson, Darden, and Other Stocks for Investors to Watch This Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1154249454","media":"barrons","summary":"A handful of notable companies will release their latest results toward the end of this week.Nike,FedEx,andDarden Restaurantswill report on Thursday, followed by CarMax and Paychex on Friday.

In a reversal of the cross-country pattern from May, the area-wide improvement was led by Germany, with a softer-than-expected PMI in France but further gains in the periphery.

In France, business activity edged higher, but not as much as expected. In Britain, growth in the private sector cooled slightly from the all-time high hit in May, but inflation pressures faced by firms hit record levels. The Bank of England meets on Thursday.</p>\n<p>Berenberg economists Holger Schmieding and Kallum Pickering wrote in a note to clients that<b>the euro zone economy is likely to recover to its pre-pandemic level of GDP in Q4 2021, while for Britain it will be Q1 2022.</b></p>\n<p>UBP’s Kazmi said that he is positioned for higher yields in Europe, as it overtakes the United States in terms of vaccinations, lockdown easing and economic recovery from COVID-19.</p>\n<p>“It will be interesting to see if the German Bund can follow the U.S. rate move with yields moving higher in Europe – it is something that we think could happen,” he said. “The fact that the Fed has moved more hawkishly will allow the ECB to be more comfortable perhaps in moving more hawkish, or less dovish, over time.”</p>\n<p>Earlier in the session, Asian&nbsp;equities posted a modest advance, led by Hong Kong and Taiwan.<b>The MSCI&nbsp;Asia&nbsp;Pacific Index was up 0.3%, set for a second straight day of gains.</b>Property and IT shares climbed, offsetting a decline in consumer staples and industrial stocks. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index rose by the most in more than two months while Taiwan’s benchmark also jumped, driven by an advance in tech shares including Meituan, TSMC and MediaTek. The&nbsp;Asian&nbsp;measure’s mild move on Wednesday lies in contrast to its outsized swings in the past few sessions following the Fed’s hawkish pivot last week. Fed officials moved to clarify their stance this week, with Powell on Tuesday saying authorities would be patient in waiting to lift borrowing costs. “Powell is trying to calm the markets, and I think that should be a positive turn of pace through&nbsp;Asia,” said Gary Dugan, chief executive officer at Global CIO Office in Singapore. The current valuations of&nbsp;Asian&nbsp;stocks are “cheap,” he added. Japan stocks steadied after a wild two-day ride that saw the Nikkei 225 slump 3.3% on Monday and then recoup almost all those losses in the following session. Indonesia’s Jakarta Composite Index was the worst performer among major national benchmarks as the country struggles to contain the coronavirus outbreak.</p>\n<p>Japan’s Topix declined as the market attempted to settle following a dramatic swing over the past two days. Electronics and auto makers were the biggest drags on the benchmark, which fell 0.5%. The Nikkei 225 closed little changed, with Fast Retailing the largest support while Eisai dropped. The Topix slid 2.4% on Monday before rebounding 3.2% on Tuesday, as investors reassessed the rally in cyclical-heavy Japan since late 2020 amid concerns over inflation and the timing of interest-rake hikes. The blue-chip Nikkei 225 is currently hovering around 29,000, in the middle of the 2,000-point range in which it has traded for most of the year. “It’s likely for investors to be inclined to take profits whenever the Nikkei 225 tops the 29,000 mark,” said Shingo Ide, chief equity strategist at NLI Research Institute. “Still, local corporate earnings are likely to improve, meaning more companies will likely revise up their forecasts, so the downside will be firmly supported with people kicking in to buy when the Nikkei 225 falls below 29,000.”</p>\n<p>India’s benchmark equity index declined the most in two weeks, dragged by Reliance Industries after struggling for direction during the day.&nbsp; Out of 30 shares in the Sensex index, 8 rose, while 22 fell. Sixteen of the 19 sector indexes compiled by BSE Ltd. tumbled, with a measure of oil and gas companies leading the losers. Stocks swung between gains and losses several times through the session against the backdrop of a steady ramp up in coronavirus vaccinations and the reassurance of policy support from the U.S Federal Reserve. The S&amp;P BSE Sensex closed down 0.5%, with the NSE Nifty 50 Index falling by a similar magnitude. “Nifty continues to witness selling pressure at higher levels,” Manish Hathiramani, technical analyst at Deen Dayal Investments said in a note. “A buy-on-dips approach would be the most prudent way to trade this market.” Reliance Industries Ltd. was the biggest drag on both indexes, falling 0.9%.

The long end steepened the 5s30s curve by more than 1bp, although the spread at close to 124.2bp it remains inside Tuesday’s range. The Asian session saw light volumes and low activity, while open interest points to a continued unwinding of positions into the ongoing Treasuries bear steepening move. Treasury auctions continue Wednesday with a $61b 5-year note sale at 1pm ET; offering follows a soft 2-year sale on Tuesday.

Peripheral spreads tighten to core, 10y Bund/BTP spread narrows ~2bps.</p>\n<p>In FX, the Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index hovered around its 200-day moving average as it gave up an earlier advance when the euro erased losses following better-than-forecast PMIs out of Germany and the euro-zone. The greenback was mixed versus its Group-of-10 peers though most currencies traded in more confined ranges compared to moves over the past week. The krone advanced as oil prices rose after an industry report pointed to another decline in U.S. crude stockpiles. The pound swung between modest losses and gains against the dollar, as investors positioned for a potentially more hawkish tone from the Bank of England at its Thursday decision. Options show the pound may stay above recent lows even if the BOE makes a case for selling pressure.

US equity futures held a mild upside bias - the NQ (+0.2%), ES (+0.1%), RTY (+0.1%), and YM (+0.1%) all saw modest broad-based gains ahead of the next raft of Fed speakers. ASX 200 (-0.4%) was pressured as the gains across its mining, telecoms, and tech stocks failed to offset the losses in the Financials and Healthcare sectors.

A better-than-expected report from Germany and the Eurozone was unable to help revive sentiment with the Stoxx 600 unable to surmount the index’s record high of 460.5 posted on June 14th. As the morning progressed the initial equity pressure has picked up with fresh catalysts slim though cash bourses remain somewhat mixed as the FTSE 100, for instance, benefits from mining strength. Separately, analysts at JP Morgan note that Europe is currently experiencing a faster pace of upgrades than any other region and still has room to continue its uptrend vs. the US. Stateside, futures trade largely unchanged ahead of the US entrance to market with no real bias towards growth/value. From a sectoral standpoint, Oil &amp; Gas names sit at the top of the leaderboard with Brent crude rising to its best level since October 2018. Basic Resources are also performing well with BHP (+0.8%) a notable gainer in the sector after being upgraded to overweight from equal weight at Morgan Stanley. While Pernod Ricard (+2.4%) is currently the biggest gainer in the Stoxx 600 after raising guidance amid a stronger than expected recovery from the pandemic.

Specifically, the 100 DMA at 1.3944 and yesterday’s 1.3963 high that aligns with a Fib retracement (38.2% of the retreat from 1.4250 peak on June 1st to this Monday’s 1.3787 low) were all breached to expose 1.4000 in Cable, and Eur/Gbp crossed 0.8550 to the downside on the way to a circa 0.8530 multi-month low before bouncing in wake of somewhat contrasting flash UK PMIs. Conversely, the Yen’s fortunes are going from bad to worse it seems as Usd/Jpy has now surpassed 111.00 inching beyond prior YTD peaks and now eyeing 111.10, with reports that the Japanese Government is thinking about tightening regulations regarding foreign investment in important tech firms hardly helping.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>USD - Aside from Yen underperformance and a fragile Franc (latter still straddling 0.9200), the Greenback is gradually losing more of its post-FOMC vigour vs G10 peers and EM counterparts. Indeed, the DXY is slipping further from 92.000 having already retreated into another lower range from last week’s peak (92.408), and in tech terms closing below a Fib support level for the 2nd consecutive day following a round of Fed speak offering a less hawkish/more dovish spin compared to Monday. However, the index is holding just above yesterday’s 91.643 trough, for now, within a 91.900-682 band awaiting more US housing data, Markit’s prelim PMIs and the next batch of Fed officials, including Bowman, Bostic and Rosengren.</li>\n <li>NZD/AUD - The Kiwi and Aussie have both recovered well from overnight lows just under 0.7000 and sub-0.7550 against their US rival irrespective of latest COVID-19 outbreaks in Wellington and NSW that prompted NZ to lift the capital’s alert status to level 2 and the state premier to announce new restrictions for hotspots including Sydney. Nzd/Usd is back up near 0.7050 and Aud/Usd is eyeing 0.7575 having cleared the 200 DMA (0.7560) with some belated assistance perhaps via the CBA revising its RBA outlook markedly (the bank now anticipates a hike in November 2022 vs 2024 previously).</li>\n <li>CAD/EUR - Another and firmer rebound in oil prices has helped the Loonie pare more of its recent losses to probe resistance offers through 1.2300 in the run up to Canadian retail sales, while mostly better than expected Eurozone flash PMIs (after an initial French scare) are contributing to the Euro’s efforts to stay comfortably afloat of 1.1900.</li>\n <li>SCANDI/EM - Brent’s bounce beyond Usd 75/brl alongside WTI on the back of bullish private crude inventory data is boosting the Nok, Rub and Mxn, while the Sek is deriving some underlying support from a sharp upgrade to this year’s GDP estimate from the Swedish Finance Ministry and the Try is taking remarks from the CBRT about protecting the Lira at face value. Elsewhere, the Zar has shrugged off slightly weaker than forecast SA core CPI against the backdrop of relative stability in Gold, but the Cnh and Cny remain on a weaker footing in line with PBoC fixings.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>In commodities,</b>aslower session for the crude complex in terms of newsflow updates after yesterday’s multiple source reports relating to OPEC+ potentially considering increasing production and the benchmarks are now back at prices near/above yesterday’s best levels. Specifically, WTI and Brent August’21 contracts post gains of ~1.0% on the session at the top end of a USD 1/bbl range for Brent which is now trading in the mid USD 75.50/bbl region. Focus this morning has been on yesterday’s bullish private inventory report, particularly referencing the headline crude figure which posted a draw of -7.2mln vs exp. -3.9mln, ahead of the EIA release due later today. Elsewhere, geopolitical development has seen outgoing Iranian President Rouhani’s Chief of Staff announced that parties in Vienna have agreed to lift economic sanctions on Iran; however, Rouhani is the outgoing President so it remains to be seen how relations will transfer and develop when Raisi, who has already refused a President Biden meeting, takes over. Subsequently, Germany’s Foreign Minister says that there are still some issues but acknowledges progress has been made on the nuclear talks. Moving to metals, spot gold and silver have been very contained throughout the morning though modestly firmer on the session taking advantage of USD pressure. For base metals attention remains firmly on the action of China whose State Planner has sent teams to begin investigation commodity pricing and supply. Nonetheless, the likes of platinum, palladium and LME copper remain firmer on the session.</p>\n<p><b>US Event Calendar</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>8:30am: 1Q Current Account Balance, est. -$206.2b, prior -$188.5b</li>\n <li>9:45am: June Markit US Services PMI, est. 70.0, prior 70.4</li>\n <li>9:45am: June Markit US Manufacturing PMI, est. 61.5, prior 62.1</li>\n <li>10am: May New Home Sales, est. 865,000, prior 863,000; MoM, est. 0.2%, prior -5.9%;</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>DB's Jim Reid concludes the overnight wrap</b></p>\n<p>5 years ago today we saw the U.K. vote for Brexit. Since this day, Sterling is -6.24% vs the Dollar and +4.87% vs the Euro, 10yr gilts have rallied -59bps (10yr Treasuries and Bunds have rallied -28bps and -26bps for context) and the FTSE is +11.9% (S&amp;P 500 + 100.9% and Stoxx 600 +31.8%). Those who believe it was a bad idea continue to feel as strongly as ever and those who believe it was a good idea also share the same convictions. My only comment is that I can’t believe how quickly five years has gone.</p>\n<p>I wonder what we’ll be saying about the Fed actions in recent weeks in five years time? For now calming remarks from Fed officials meant that risk assets have now regained their poise after last week’s FOMC wobble. Before the numerous Fed speakers, even 10yr US yields briefly traded higher than their pre-FOMC levels (European bonds closed above). However a steady but notable bond rally started with the Fed commentary which in turn helped equity markets power ahead.</p>\n<p>The early speakers indeed helped set the tone with New York Fed President Williams reassuring markets that rates hikes were “still way off in the future”, while Cleveland Fed President Mester (a non-voter this year) said that they weren’t at a point to dial back accommodation, but that it may come under consideration this Autumn.</p>\n<p>Fed Chair Powell later testified before the House of Representatives’ Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis. The Chair received numerous questions on inflation and the Fed’s role and ability to curtail it. Chair Powell stuck to the script that, “a pretty substantial part, or perhaps all of the overshoot in inflation comes from categories that are directly affected by the re-opening of the economy such as used cars and trucks.” However as he mentioned last week, that view requires some level of humility and he acknowledged that those price “effects have been larger than we expected and they may turn out to be more persistent than we expected.” Powell also noted that the FOMC “will wait for actual evidence of actual inflation or other imbalances” before moving rates higher and not react to projections. The S&amp;P 500 rose about 0.35% during the testimony before moderating a bit into the close, while US 10yr treasury yields fell another -1.5bps having rallied with the earlier Fed speak.</p>\n<p>Running through the moves in response, US equities continued to advance as the S&amp;P 500 (+0.51%) moved to within just quarter of a per cent of last week’s all-time closing high, whilst the VIX index of volatility fell a further -1.2pts as it subsided from its own recent high on Friday. New records were also set, with the NASDAQ (+0.79%) hitting a new record as tech stocks continued to power ahead, though small-cap stocks fared less well with the Russell 2000 closing up +0.43%. The US equity rally was fairly broad based with 18 of 24 industry groups gaining with a mix of technology and cyclicals stocks amongst the best performers. In fact the only two industries that fell over -0.25% yesterday were the defensive, bond-proxies real estate (-0.44%) and utilities (-0.68%). There were similar advances in Europe too, where the STOXX 600 (+0.26%), the FTSE 100 (+0.39%) and the DAX (+0.21%) all moved higher on the day.</p>\n<p>For US Treasuries, yesterday saw a further steepening in the yield curve, albeit small, with the 2s10s (+0.1bps) and the 5s30s (+0.9bps) both moving higher. That was driven by a rally at the front end, with 2yr yields moving down -2.6bps on the day to 0.228%, whereas 30yr yields were down -2.4bps to 2.09%. We also saw a 2nd day running of higher inflation expectations, with the 10yr breakeven up +4.2bps to 2.32%, which brings its rise over the last 2 sessions to +8.2bps, although lower real yields helped the 10yr Treasury yield to move -2.5bps lower on the day, closing at 1.463%. At the day’s highs (1.507%) 10yr yields were actually +2.3bps higher that just before the FOMC announcement and 30yr yields (2.147%) were just -3bps lower than their pre-FOMC levels. At those intraday highs, the respective bonds were +15.5bps and +22.1bps higher than their Monday morning Asian yields lows. So a wild swing but markets are slowly getting acclimatised to the fact that the Fed didn’t say anything that outlandish last week. They just caught up closer to reality. For Europe it was a slightly different picture however, as 10yr yields on bunds (+0.7bps), OATs (+0.3bps) an BTPs (+2.2bps) all rose on the day.</p>\n<p>Asian markets are largely posting gains this morning with the Nikkei (+0.07%), Hang Seng (+1.46%), Shanghai Comp (+0.46%) and Kospi (+0.38%) all up. Futures on the S&amp;P 500 are also up +0.14% while the dollar index is up +0.11% in early trade today. Elsewhere, commodity prices are mostly trading up with DCE iron ore (+4.17%), Copper (+1.00%), SHF steel rebar (+2.12%) and oil prices (c. 0.50%) all higher. Treasury yields are broadly flat.</p>\n<p>Looking ahead, the main highlight today will be the release of the flash PMIs for June. Back in May, the final numbers showed that growth was still maintaining decent momentum, with the Euro Area composite PMI coming in at 57.1, the strongest in over 3 years, while the US composite PMI was at 68.7, which is the strongest since the data goes back to in October 2009. Price pressures will be scrutinised and it’s possible the recent commodity dip will ease input prices even if supply chain issues still remain. Overnight, we’ve already had the numbers in from Japan and Australia, which showed Japan’s preliminary manufacturing PMI softening to 51.5 from 53.0 last month while the services reading improved to 47.2 from 46.5. Australia’s manufacturing PMI also softened to 58.4 (vs. 60.4 last month), the same trend as the Services PMI which came in at 56.0 (vs. 58.0 last month).</p>\n<p>While Bitcoin ended the session up +0.98% at $32,903, at one point the cryptocurrency fell beneath $30,000 in trading for the first time since late January. The cryptocurrency is on track for its 3rd successive monthly decline now, and given it started the year at $28,996 it’s not too far away from having erased its entire YTD gains (it did intra-day), after peaking at an intra-day high of $64,870 back on April 14. So in spite of being all the rage during its ascent in Q1, you’d actually have better YTD returns right now from the mast majority of traditional assets in our monthly performance review suite.</p>\n<p>In terms of the latest on the pandemic, there were signs that border restrictions could still be around in 2022 after Dow Jones reported that China would keep its pandemic border restrictions for at least another year, according to those familiar with the matter. Separately in the UK there was continued concern about the spread of the delta variant, as yesterday saw the 7-day average of new cases surpass 10,000 for the first time since February. That said, the one good piece of news is that the latest wave has seen the age distribution of cases shift substantially lower relative to previous waves, and younger groups are much less likely to be severely affected by the virus relative to older groups.</p>\n<p>Concerns around the spread of the delta variant has also led to Wellington, capital city of New Zealand, raising its alert level to 2, a step below a lockdown while in Australia, Sydney has decided to impose new restrictions, including compulsory mask-wearing at all indoor venues such as workplaces and shops to control the outbreak. Taiwan has also decided to extend its soft lockdown by another two weeks to June 28. Elsewhere, the White House noted that the US is unlikely to reach 70% of adults with at least one shot by July 4th, however they are likely to get to 70% of all those over the age of 27 by the holiday.</p>\n<p>Looking at yesterday’s data, US existing home sales fell to an annualised rate of 5.80m in May (vs. 5.73m expected), marking the 4th consecutive monthly decline. Separately, the Richmond Fed’s manufacturing survey for June saw the composite index rise to 22 (vs. 18 expected). And over in Europe, the European Commission’s advance consumer confidence reading for the Euro Area in June rose to -3.3 (vs. -3.1 expected), which is its highest level since January 2018.</p>\n<p>To the day ahead now, and the aforementioned flash PMIs for June will likely be the main highlight. Otherwise, data releases include US new home sales for May, while from central banks, we’ll hear from ECB President Lagarde, Vice President de Guindos, and the Fed’s Bowman, Bostic and Rosengren.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Futures Flat As Traders Wait For Next Green Light From Fed</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\">\nFutures Flat As Traders Wait For Next Green Light From Fed\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-23 20:13 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/futures-flat-traders-wait-next-green-light-fed><strong>zerohedge</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>S&P 500 futures erased earlier gains, and after rising as much as 0.3% when they traded at all time highs, Eminis were last seen down 4 points or 0.1% to 4,232, as European stocks also struggled to ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/futures-flat-traders-wait-next-green-light-fed\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{},"source_url":"https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/futures-flat-traders-wait-next-green-light-fed","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1124251862","content_text":"S&P 500 futures erased earlier gains, and after rising as much as 0.3% when they traded at all time highs, Eminis were last seen down 4 points or 0.1% to 4,232, as European stocks also struggled to gain momentum on Wednesday despite reassurances from U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell that the Fed is not rushing to hike rates contrary to the market's post-FOMC freakout last week. Treasuries fell, the dollar was flat and bitcoin soared after tumbling on Tuesday.\nOn Tuesday, Powell sought to reassure investors on Tuesday, saying that the central bank will watch a broad set of job market data to assess the economic recovery from COVID-19, rather than rush to raise rates on the basis of fear of inflation. New York Fed President John Williams echoed Powell, saying that a discussion about raising interest rates is still “way off in the future.”\n\n“The market’s still digesting the Fed news,” said Mo Kazmi, portfolio manager and macro strategist at UBP. “I think a lot of that move was exacerbated by stretched positioning and now what we’re seeing is perhaps reflation trades being put back on and the market normalising to some extent, realising that for now it’s just a subtle shift from the Fed.”\nAt 7:30 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were down 8 points, or 0.02%, S&P 500 e-minis were down 4 points, or 0.1%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were down 21.25 points, or 0.10%. In early trading, energy stocks Occidental Petroleum, ConocoPhillips and Exxon Mobil gained about 1% as oil prices jumped to a more than two-year high. Among meme stocks, software firm Alfi Inc dropped 10.1% after more than doubling in value in the prior session, while Torchlight Energy Resources dropped in U.S. premarket trading, extending losses from Tuesday triggered by the Reddit-hyped oil explorer’s sale of $100 million in new shares. Stock declines as much as 13% after Tuesday’s 29% plunge. Xpeng ADRs climbed in U.S. premarket trading after the electric-vehicle maker is said to have received the green light from the Hong Kong stock exchange to list in the city. Cryptocurrency-exposed stocks also edged higher as Bitcoin recovered bigly after dipping below the $30,000 level in the prior session, and was currently trading around $34,100. Here are some of the biggest U.S. movers today:\n\nCryptocurrency-exposed stocks edge higher in premarket trading following a volatile day for digital assets on Tuesday. Riot Blockchain (RIOT) climbs 2.4% and Marathon Digital (MARA) rises 2.3%, while Bit Digital (BTBT) gains 3.1%.\nGemini Therapeutics (GMTX) slumps 30%, extending postmarket losses, after the company announced initial data from its Phase 2a ReGAtta study of GEM103 in patients with geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to dry age-related macular degeneration. Jefferies said the stock was oversold in postmarket trading and the data was “encouraging but early.”\nXpeng ADRs (XPEV) rise 4.7% after the electric-vehicle maker is said to have received the green light from the Hong Kong stock exchange to list in the city. Peer Li Auto (LI) rises 2.4%, while Nio (NIO) gains 2.1%.\n\nThe MSCI world equity index was up 0.1% on the day at 1101 GMT, having recovered from the one-month low it hit in the aftermath of the Fed’s meeting.\nIn Europe, the Stoxx 600 Index fell as much as 0.5% to a session low, with travel and leisure and retail shares underperforming the most.  All sectors in the red except energy and mining shares. Luxury shares are down after analyst downgrades. Here are some of the biggest European movers today:\n\nPernod Ricard shares jump as much as 4.3% to a record high after the French distiller upgraded its full-year Ebit growth guidance more than anticipated, according to Jefferies. Peers also advance: Diageo gains as much as 2%, Remy Cointreau +1.5% and Campari +1.2%\nAbivax climbs as much as 15% to the highest since Feb. 16 following positive data from clinical trials of its rheumatoid arthritis drug.\nBank of Ireland drops as much as 6.4% to the lowest since April 21 after the Irish government said it will sell part of its stake in the lender.\nKering slips as much as 3.1% after HSBC downgraded luxury- goods stocks and said investors may “take a break” from names trading close to record valuations. Peers also fall: Hermes drops as much as 2.5%, LVMH -1.8%, Richemont -2.2%, Burberry -2.3%\nShop Apotheke Europe drops as much as 5.1% after Metzler downgraded the stock to hold from buy, with analyst Tom Diedrich saying the latest news flow on e-prescriptions could dampen market optimism. Zur Rose Group falls as much as 5.8%\n\nEarly European PMI data showed thateuro zone business growth accelerated at its fastest pace in 15 years in Juneas the easing of more lockdown measures and the unleashing of pent-up demand drove a boom in the bloc’s dominant services industry.The Euro area composite flash PMI increased by 2.1pt to 59.2 in June, continuing to beat consensus expectations. In a reversal of the cross-country pattern from May, the area-wide improvement was led by Germany, with a softer-than-expected PMI in France but further gains in the periphery. In the UK, the composite PMI declined by more than expected but remained close to its all-time high from May.\n\nEuro Area Composite PMI (June, Flash): 59.2, consensus 58.8, last 57.1.\nGermany Composite PMI (June, Flash): 60.4, consensus 57.6, last 56.2.\nFrance Composite PMI (June, Flash): 57.1, consensus 59.0, last 57.0.\nUK Composite PMI (June, Flash): 61.7, consensus 62.5, last 62.9.\n\n\nGermany’s private sector growth was also lifted to its highest level in more than a decade in June, the PMI survey showed. In France, business activity edged higher, but not as much as expected. In Britain, growth in the private sector cooled slightly from the all-time high hit in May, but inflation pressures faced by firms hit record levels. The Bank of England meets on Thursday.\nBerenberg economists Holger Schmieding and Kallum Pickering wrote in a note to clients thatthe euro zone economy is likely to recover to its pre-pandemic level of GDP in Q4 2021, while for Britain it will be Q1 2022.\nUBP’s Kazmi said that he is positioned for higher yields in Europe, as it overtakes the United States in terms of vaccinations, lockdown easing and economic recovery from COVID-19.\n“It will be interesting to see if the German Bund can follow the U.S. rate move with yields moving higher in Europe – it is something that we think could happen,” he said. “The fact that the Fed has moved more hawkishly will allow the ECB to be more comfortable perhaps in moving more hawkish, or less dovish, over time.”\nEarlier in the session, Asian equities posted a modest advance, led by Hong Kong and Taiwan.The MSCI Asia Pacific Index was up 0.3%, set for a second straight day of gains.Property and IT shares climbed, offsetting a decline in consumer staples and industrial stocks. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index rose by the most in more than two months while Taiwan’s benchmark also jumped, driven by an advance in tech shares including Meituan, TSMC and MediaTek. The Asian measure’s mild move on Wednesday lies in contrast to its outsized swings in the past few sessions following the Fed’s hawkish pivot last week. Fed officials moved to clarify their stance this week, with Powell on Tuesday saying authorities would be patient in waiting to lift borrowing costs. “Powell is trying to calm the markets, and I think that should be a positive turn of pace through Asia,” said Gary Dugan, chief executive officer at Global CIO Office in Singapore. The current valuations of Asian stocks are “cheap,” he added. Japan stocks steadied after a wild two-day ride that saw the Nikkei 225 slump 3.3% on Monday and then recoup almost all those losses in the following session. Indonesia’s Jakarta Composite Index was the worst performer among major national benchmarks as the country struggles to contain the coronavirus outbreak.\nJapan’s Topix declined as the market attempted to settle following a dramatic swing over the past two days. Electronics and auto makers were the biggest drags on the benchmark, which fell 0.5%. The Nikkei 225 closed little changed, with Fast Retailing the largest support while Eisai dropped. The Topix slid 2.4% on Monday before rebounding 3.2% on Tuesday, as investors reassessed the rally in cyclical-heavy Japan since late 2020 amid concerns over inflation and the timing of interest-rake hikes. The blue-chip Nikkei 225 is currently hovering around 29,000, in the middle of the 2,000-point range in which it has traded for most of the year. “It’s likely for investors to be inclined to take profits whenever the Nikkei 225 tops the 29,000 mark,” said Shingo Ide, chief equity strategist at NLI Research Institute. “Still, local corporate earnings are likely to improve, meaning more companies will likely revise up their forecasts, so the downside will be firmly supported with people kicking in to buy when the Nikkei 225 falls below 29,000.”\nIndia’s benchmark equity index declined the most in two weeks, dragged by Reliance Industries after struggling for direction during the day.  Out of 30 shares in the Sensex index, 8 rose, while 22 fell. Sixteen of the 19 sector indexes compiled by BSE Ltd. tumbled, with a measure of oil and gas companies leading the losers. Stocks swung between gains and losses several times through the session against the backdrop of a steady ramp up in coronavirus vaccinations and the reassurance of policy support from the U.S Federal Reserve. The S&P BSE Sensex closed down 0.5%, with the NSE Nifty 50 Index falling by a similar magnitude. “Nifty continues to witness selling pressure at higher levels,” Manish Hathiramani, technical analyst at Deen Dayal Investments said in a note. “A buy-on-dips approach would be the most prudent way to trade this market.” Reliance Industries Ltd. was the biggest drag on both indexes, falling 0.9%. The nation’s largest company by market capitalization will hold its annual general meeting on Thursday.\nIn rates, Treasuries were slightly cheaper and the yield curve is steeper, with 10-year yields at around 1.477%, cheaper by 1bp. The long end steepened the 5s30s curve by more than 1bp, although the spread at close to 124.2bp it remains inside Tuesday’s range. The Asian session saw light volumes and low activity, while open interest points to a continued unwinding of positions into the ongoing Treasuries bear steepening move. Treasury auctions continue Wednesday with a $61b 5-year note sale at 1pm ET; offering follows a soft 2-year sale on Tuesday. In Europe, Bund futures are just off session highs having traded at -0.176%. Peripheral spreads tighten to core, 10y Bund/BTP spread narrows ~2bps.\nIn FX, the Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index hovered around its 200-day moving average as it gave up an earlier advance when the euro erased losses following better-than-forecast PMIs out of Germany and the euro-zone. The greenback was mixed versus its Group-of-10 peers though most currencies traded in more confined ranges compared to moves over the past week. The krone advanced as oil prices rose after an industry report pointed to another decline in U.S. crude stockpiles. The pound swung between modest losses and gains against the dollar, as investors positioned for a potentially more hawkish tone from the Bank of England at its Thursday decision. Options show the pound may stay above recent lows even if the BOE makes a case for selling pressure. Australian and New Zealand dollars reversed an Asia-session loss, even as Covid-19 restrictions were tightened in both nations. The yen fell toward its lowest level in more than a year as sentiment got a boost after Federal Reserve officials said interest rates are unlikely to rise anytime soon.\nIn commodities, Brent crude oil futures rose above $75 a barrel, their highest in more than two years, after an industry report pointed to another decline in U.S. crude stockpiles.\nElsewhere, bitcoin was up around 5% on the day, above the $34,000 mark. The cryptocurrency dropped to as low as $28,600 on Tuesday - its lowest since January. Ether was trading around $2,000.\nThe U.S. is set to report new home sales in May on Wednesday. The data “is unlikely to offer any major surprises,” Kaia Parv, head of investment research at FXPRIMUS, wrote in emailed comments. “These figures should mimic the trend of rolling off as we saw with existing home sales earlier this week.”\nTo the day ahead now, data releases include US new home sales for May, while from central banks, we’ll hear from ECB President Lagarde, Vice President de Guindos, and the Fed’s Bowman, Bostic and Rosengren.\nMarket Snapshot\n\nS&P 500 futures up 0.1% to 4,240.50\nSTOXX Europe 600 down 0.1% to 455.92\nMXAP up 0.4% to 206.75\nMXAPJ up 0.9% to 693.70\nNikkei little changed at 28,874.89\nTopix down 0.5% to 1,949.14\nHang Seng Index up 1.8% to 28,817.07\nShanghai Composite up 0.2% to 3,566.22\nSensex little changed at 52,613.89\nAustralia S&P/ASX 200 down 0.6% to 7,298.45\nKospi up 0.4% to 3,276.19\nBrent Futures up 0.9% to $75.50/bbl\nGold spot up 0.3% to $1,783.78\nU.S. Dollar Index little changed at 91.71\nGerman 10Y yield fell 0.4 bps to -0.167%\nEuro little changed at $1.1941\n\nTop Overnight News from Bloomberg\n\nChancellor Angela Merkel’s cabinet approved plans to increase borrowing by 99.7 billion euros ($119 billion) next year to help finance Germany’s pandemic response\nIHS Markit said its key index of activity in the U.K. was only slightly below the record posted in May, with firms responding to rising workloads by taking on staff at the fastest pace since it began collecting data in 1998; output-price inflation hit a new record as firms passed on higher costs to customers\n“In the second quarter of the year as well as in the second half of the year, we expect very significant growth in the euro-area,” ECB Vice President Luis de Guindos said in online event\nTreasury moves have been large post- Fed, but changes in curvature have been historically extreme.

US equity futures held a mild upside bias - the NQ (+0.2%), ES (+0.1%), RTY (+0.1%), and YM (+0.1%) all saw modest broad-based gains ahead of the next raft of Fed speakers. ASX 200 (-0.4%) was pressured as the gains across its mining, telecoms, and tech stocks failed to offset the losses in the Financials and Healthcare sectors. The Nikkei 225 (Unch) briefly topped 29k as the softer currency underpinned the exporter-heavy index. The KOSPI (+0.4%) remained cautious as tensions between Washington and Pyongyang simmered in the background. The Hang Seng (+1.6%) was bolstered by gains across its large-cap oil and financial stocks, whilst the Shanghai Comp (+0.5%) was contained, with friction reported in the Taiwanese Strait after a US destroyer sailed through the waters in what was seen as a sign of provocation in Beijing. Finally, JGB futures are relatively flat as it tracks price action across UST futures.\nTop Asian News\n\nChina, U.S. May Hold Diplomatic Talks Next Week, FT Reports\nAustralian Law Could Force Facebook, Google to Strip Content\nMonthly Bargain Days Boost Southeast Asia’s Online Spending\n\nEuropean equities (Stoxx 600 -0.5%) painted a relatively mixed picture at the start of the session with initial pressure seemingly stemming from misses across the board on French flash PMIs for June. A better-than-expected report from Germany and the Eurozone was unable to help revive sentiment with the Stoxx 600 unable to surmount the index’s record high of 460.5 posted on June 14th. As the morning progressed the initial equity pressure has picked up with fresh catalysts slim though cash bourses remain somewhat mixed as the FTSE 100, for instance, benefits from mining strength. Separately, analysts at JP Morgan note that Europe is currently experiencing a faster pace of upgrades than any other region and still has room to continue its uptrend vs. the US. Stateside, futures trade largely unchanged ahead of the US entrance to market with no real bias towards growth/value. From a sectoral standpoint, Oil & Gas names sit at the top of the leaderboard with Brent crude rising to its best level since October 2018. Basic Resources are also performing well with BHP (+0.8%) a notable gainer in the sector after being upgraded to overweight from equal weight at Morgan Stanley. While Pernod Ricard (+2.4%) is currently the biggest gainer in the Stoxx 600 after raising guidance amid a stronger than expected recovery from the pandemic. At the other end of the spectrum, Luxury names have been in focus after a slew of broker moves at HSBC which has sent the likes of Kering (-3.0%), Hermes (-1.9%) and Burberry (-0.2%) lower.\nTop European News\n\nU.K. Poised to Ease Travel Curbs as Airlines Step Up Demands\nLondon Looks Past Brexit to Eclipse Rivals in Emerging Markets\nPrivate Equity Faces Off Hedge Fund Shorts in Bid for U.K. Plc\nLondoners Snap Up Luxury Homes as Rich Foreigners Are Locked Out\n\nIn FX,a stellar start to Wednesday’s session for Sterling amidst reports of optimism on both sides of the NI protocol divide that a stop-gap solution can be found to the trade spat, while the Pound also scaled several chart and psychological hurdles vs the Dollar and Euro respectively that have been capping upside momentum. Specifically, the 100 DMA at 1.3944 and yesterday’s 1.3963 high that aligns with a Fib retracement (38.2% of the retreat from 1.4250 peak on June 1st to this Monday’s 1.3787 low) were all breached to expose 1.4000 in Cable, and Eur/Gbp crossed 0.8550 to the downside on the way to a circa 0.8530 multi-month low before bouncing in wake of somewhat contrasting flash UK PMIs. Conversely, the Yen’s fortunes are going from bad to worse it seems as Usd/Jpy has now surpassed 111.00 inching beyond prior YTD peaks and now eyeing 111.10, with reports that the Japanese Government is thinking about tightening regulations regarding foreign investment in important tech firms hardly helping.\n\nUSD - Aside from Yen underperformance and a fragile Franc (latter still straddling 0.9200), the Greenback is gradually losing more of its post-FOMC vigour vs G10 peers and EM counterparts. Indeed, the DXY is slipping further from 92.000 having already retreated into another lower range from last week’s peak (92.408), and in tech terms closing below a Fib support level for the 2nd consecutive day following a round of Fed speak offering a less hawkish/more dovish spin compared to Monday. However, the index is holding just above yesterday’s 91.643 trough, for now, within a 91.900-682 band awaiting more US housing data, Markit’s prelim PMIs and the next batch of Fed officials, including Bowman, Bostic and Rosengren.\nNZD/AUD - The Kiwi and Aussie have both recovered well from overnight lows just under 0.7000 and sub-0.7550 against their US rival irrespective of latest COVID-19 outbreaks in Wellington and NSW that prompted NZ to lift the capital’s alert status to level 2 and the state premier to announce new restrictions for hotspots including Sydney. Nzd/Usd is back up near 0.7050 and Aud/Usd is eyeing 0.7575 having cleared the 200 DMA (0.7560) with some belated assistance perhaps via the CBA revising its RBA outlook markedly (the bank now anticipates a hike in November 2022 vs 2024 previously).\nCAD/EUR - Another and firmer rebound in oil prices has helped the Loonie pare more of its recent losses to probe resistance offers through 1.2300 in the run up to Canadian retail sales, while mostly better than expected Eurozone flash PMIs (after an initial French scare) are contributing to the Euro’s efforts to stay comfortably afloat of 1.1900.\nSCANDI/EM - Brent’s bounce beyond Usd 75/brl alongside WTI on the back of bullish private crude inventory data is boosting the Nok, Rub and Mxn, while the Sek is deriving some underlying support from a sharp upgrade to this year’s GDP estimate from the Swedish Finance Ministry and the Try is taking remarks from the CBRT about protecting the Lira at face value. Elsewhere, the Zar has shrugged off slightly weaker than forecast SA core CPI against the backdrop of relative stability in Gold, but the Cnh and Cny remain on a weaker footing in line with PBoC fixings.\n\nIn commodities,aslower session for the crude complex in terms of newsflow updates after yesterday’s multiple source reports relating to OPEC+ potentially considering increasing production and the benchmarks are now back at prices near/above yesterday’s best levels. Specifically, WTI and Brent August’21 contracts post gains of ~1.0% on the session at the top end of a USD 1/bbl range for Brent which is now trading in the mid USD 75.50/bbl region. Focus this morning has been on yesterday’s bullish private inventory report, particularly referencing the headline crude figure which posted a draw of -7.2mln vs exp. -3.9mln, ahead of the EIA release due later today. Elsewhere, geopolitical development has seen outgoing Iranian President Rouhani’s Chief of Staff announced that parties in Vienna have agreed to lift economic sanctions on Iran; however, Rouhani is the outgoing President so it remains to be seen how relations will transfer and develop when Raisi, who has already refused a President Biden meeting, takes over. Subsequently, Germany’s Foreign Minister says that there are still some issues but acknowledges progress has been made on the nuclear talks. Moving to metals, spot gold and silver have been very contained throughout the morning though modestly firmer on the session taking advantage of USD pressure. For base metals attention remains firmly on the action of China whose State Planner has sent teams to begin investigation commodity pricing and supply. Nonetheless, the likes of platinum, palladium and LME copper remain firmer on the session.\nUS Event Calendar\n\n8:30am: 1Q Current Account Balance, est. -$206.2b, prior -$188.5b\n9:45am: June Markit US Services PMI, est. 70.0, prior 70.4\n9:45am: June Markit US Manufacturing PMI, est. 61.5, prior 62.1\n10am: May New Home Sales, est. 865,000, prior 863,000; MoM, est. 0.2%, prior -5.9%;\n\nDB's Jim Reid concludes the overnight wrap\n5 years ago today we saw the U.K. vote for Brexit. Since this day, Sterling is -6.24% vs the Dollar and +4.87% vs the Euro, 10yr gilts have rallied -59bps (10yr Treasuries and Bunds have rallied -28bps and -26bps for context) and the FTSE is +11.9% (S&P 500 + 100.9% and Stoxx 600 +31.8%). Those who believe it was a bad idea continue to feel as strongly as ever and those who believe it was a good idea also share the same convictions. My only comment is that I can’t believe how quickly five years has gone.\nI wonder what we’ll be saying about the Fed actions in recent weeks in five years time? For now calming remarks from Fed officials meant that risk assets have now regained their poise after last week’s FOMC wobble. Before the numerous Fed speakers, even 10yr US yields briefly traded higher than their pre-FOMC levels (European bonds closed above). However a steady but notable bond rally started with the Fed commentary which in turn helped equity markets power ahead.\nThe early speakers indeed helped set the tone with New York Fed President Williams reassuring markets that rates hikes were “still way off in the future”, while Cleveland Fed President Mester (a non-voter this year) said that they weren’t at a point to dial back accommodation, but that it may come under consideration this Autumn.\nFed Chair Powell later testified before the House of Representatives’ Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis. The Chair received numerous questions on inflation and the Fed’s role and ability to curtail it. Chair Powell stuck to the script that, “a pretty substantial part, or perhaps all of the overshoot in inflation comes from categories that are directly affected by the re-opening of the economy such as used cars and trucks.” However as he mentioned last week, that view requires some level of humility and he acknowledged that those price “effects have been larger than we expected and they may turn out to be more persistent than we expected.” Powell also noted that the FOMC “will wait for actual evidence of actual inflation or other imbalances” before moving rates higher and not react to projections. The S&P 500 rose about 0.35% during the testimony before moderating a bit into the close, while US 10yr treasury yields fell another -1.5bps having rallied with the earlier Fed speak.\nRunning through the moves in response, US equities continued to advance as the S&P 500 (+0.51%) moved to within just quarter of a per cent of last week’s all-time closing high, whilst the VIX index of volatility fell a further -1.2pts as it subsided from its own recent high on Friday. New records were also set, with the NASDAQ (+0.79%) hitting a new record as tech stocks continued to power ahead, though small-cap stocks fared less well with the Russell 2000 closing up +0.43%. The US equity rally was fairly broad based with 18 of 24 industry groups gaining with a mix of technology and cyclicals stocks amongst the best performers. In fact the only two industries that fell over -0.25% yesterday were the defensive, bond-proxies real estate (-0.44%) and utilities (-0.68%). There were similar advances in Europe too, where the STOXX 600 (+0.26%), the FTSE 100 (+0.39%) and the DAX (+0.21%) all moved higher on the day.\nFor US Treasuries, yesterday saw a further steepening in the yield curve, albeit small, with the 2s10s (+0.1bps) and the 5s30s (+0.9bps) both moving higher. That was driven by a rally at the front end, with 2yr yields moving down -2.6bps on the day to 0.228%, whereas 30yr yields were down -2.4bps to 2.09%. We also saw a 2nd day running of higher inflation expectations, with the 10yr breakeven up +4.2bps to 2.32%, which brings its rise over the last 2 sessions to +8.2bps, although lower real yields helped the 10yr Treasury yield to move -2.5bps lower on the day, closing at 1.463%. At the day’s highs (1.507%) 10yr yields were actually +2.3bps higher that just before the FOMC announcement and 30yr yields (2.147%) were just -3bps lower than their pre-FOMC levels. At those intraday highs, the respective bonds were +15.5bps and +22.1bps higher than their Monday morning Asian yields lows. So a wild swing but markets are slowly getting acclimatised to the fact that the Fed didn’t say anything that outlandish last week. They just caught up closer to reality. For Europe it was a slightly different picture however, as 10yr yields on bunds (+0.7bps), OATs (+0.3bps) an BTPs (+2.2bps) all rose on the day.\nAsian markets are largely posting gains this morning with the Nikkei (+0.07%), Hang Seng (+1.46%), Shanghai Comp (+0.46%) and Kospi (+0.38%) all up. Futures on the S&P 500 are also up +0.14% while the dollar index is up +0.11% in early trade today. Elsewhere, commodity prices are mostly trading up with DCE iron ore (+4.17%), Copper (+1.00%), SHF steel rebar (+2.12%) and oil prices (c. 0.50%) all higher. Treasury yields are broadly flat.\nLooking ahead, the main highlight today will be the release of the flash PMIs for June. Back in May, the final numbers showed that growth was still maintaining decent momentum, with the Euro Area composite PMI coming in at 57.1, the strongest in over 3 years, while the US composite PMI was at 68.7, which is the strongest since the data goes back to in October 2009. Price pressures will be scrutinised and it’s possible the recent commodity dip will ease input prices even if supply chain issues still remain. Overnight, we’ve already had the numbers in from Japan and Australia, which showed Japan’s preliminary manufacturing PMI softening to 51.5 from 53.0 last month while the services reading improved to 47.2 from 46.5. Australia’s manufacturing PMI also softened to 58.4 (vs. 60.4 last month), the same trend as the Services PMI which came in at 56.0 (vs. 58.0 last month).\nWhile Bitcoin ended the session up +0.98% at $32,903, at one point the cryptocurrency fell beneath $30,000 in trading for the first time since late January. The cryptocurrency is on track for its 3rd successive monthly decline now, and given it started the year at $28,996 it’s not too far away from having erased its entire YTD gains (it did intra-day), after peaking at an intra-day high of $64,870 back on April 14. So in spite of being all the rage during its ascent in Q1, you’d actually have better YTD returns right now from the mast majority of traditional assets in our monthly performance review suite.\nIn terms of the latest on the pandemic, there were signs that border restrictions could still be around in 2022 after Dow Jones reported that China would keep its pandemic border restrictions for at least another year, according to those familiar with the matter. Separately in the UK there was continued concern about the spread of the delta variant, as yesterday saw the 7-day average of new cases surpass 10,000 for the first time since February. That said, the one good piece of news is that the latest wave has seen the age distribution of cases shift substantially lower relative to previous waves, and younger groups are much less likely to be severely affected by the virus relative to older groups.\nConcerns around the spread of the delta variant has also led to Wellington, capital city of New Zealand, raising its alert level to 2, a step below a lockdown while in Australia, Sydney has decided to impose new restrictions, including compulsory mask-wearing at all indoor venues such as workplaces and shops to control the outbreak. Taiwan has also decided to extend its soft lockdown by another two weeks to June 28. Elsewhere, the White House noted that the US is unlikely to reach 70% of adults with at least one shot by July 4th, however they are likely to get to 70% of all those over the age of 27 by the holiday.\nLooking at yesterday’s data, US existing home sales fell to an annualised rate of 5.80m in May (vs. 5.73m expected), marking the 4th consecutive monthly decline. Separately, the Richmond Fed’s manufacturing survey for June saw the composite index rise to 22 (vs. 18 expected). And over in Europe, the European Commission’s advance consumer confidence reading for the Euro Area in June rose to -3.3 (vs. -3.1 expected), which is its highest level since January 2018.\nTo the day ahead now, and the aforementioned flash PMIs for June will likely be the main highlight. Otherwise, data releases include US new home sales for May, while from central banks, we’ll hear from ECB President Lagarde, Vice President de Guindos, and the Fed’s Bowman, Bostic and Rosengren.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":450,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121319524,"gmtCreate":1624453520368,"gmtModify":1703837121996,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sure&nbsp;","listText":"Sure&nbsp;","text":"Sure","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/121319524","repostId":"1146629706","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1146629706","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":1624449285,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1146629706?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-23 19:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Toplines Before US Market Open on Wednesday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1146629706","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Stock futures are bouncing between small gains and losses, indicating a quiet opening.\nBitcoin, ethe","content":"<ul>\n <li>Stock futures are bouncing between small gains and losses, indicating a quiet opening.</li>\n <li>Bitcoin, ethereum and other crypto currenciesrose Wednesday after a tumultous few daysof trading.

That's understandable, with several of them delivering triple-digit and even four-digit percentage gains.</p>\n<p>However, what goes up can come down. Analysts don't expect the online frenzy fueling the ginormous jumps for some of the most popular stocks will be sustainable. Here are three meme stocks that Wall Street thinks will plunge by more than 20% within the next 12 months.</p>\n<p>AMC Entertainment</p>\n<p><b>AMC Entertainment</b>(NYSE:AMC)ranks as the best-performing meme stock of all. Shares of the movie theater operator have skyrocketed close to 2,500% year to date.</p>\n<p>The consensus among analysts, though, is that the stock could lose 90% of its current value. Even the most optimistic analyst surveyed by Refinitiv has a price target for AMC that's more than 70% below the current share price.</p>\n<p>But isn't AMC's business picking up? Yep. The easing of restrictions has enabled the company to reopen 99% of its U.S. theaters. AMC could benefit as seating capacity limitations imposed by state and local governments are raised. Thereleases of multiple movies this summerand later this year that are likely to be hits should also help.</p>\n<p>However, Wall Street clearly believes that AMC's share price has gotten way ahead of its business prospects. The stock is trading at nearly eight times higher than it was before the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>\n<p>Clover Health Investments</p>\n<p>Only a few days ago, it looked like&nbsp;<b>Clover Health Investments</b>(NASDAQ:CLOV)might push AMC to the side as the hottest meme stock. Retail investors viewed Clover as a primeshort squeezecandidate.</p>\n<p>Since the beginning of June, shares of Clover Health have jumped more than 65%. Analysts, however, don't expect those gains to last. The average price target for the stock is 25% below the current share price.</p>\n<p>Clover Health's valuation does seem to have gotten out of hand. The healthcare stock currently trades at more than 170 times trailing-12-month sales. That's a nosebleed level, especially considering that the company is the subject of investigations by the U.S. Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission.</p>\n<p>Still, Clover Health could deliver improving financial results this year. The company hopes to significantly increase its membership by targeting the original Medicare program. This represents a major new market opportunity in addition to its current Medicare Advantage business.</p>\n<p>Sundial Growers</p>\n<p>At one point earlier this year,&nbsp;<b>Sundial Growers</b>(NASDAQ:SNDL)appeared to be a legitimate contender to become the biggest winner among meme stocks. The Canadian marijuana stock vaulted more than 520% higher year to date before giving up much of its gains. However, Sundial's share price has still more than doubled in 2021.</p>\n<p>Analysts anticipate that the pot stock could fall even further. The consensus price target for Sundial reflects a 23% discount to its current share price. One analyst even thinks the stock could sink 55%.</p>\n<p>There certainly are reasons to be pessimistic about Sundial's core cannabis business. The company's net cannabis revenue fell year over year in the first quarter of 2021. Although Sundial is taking steps that it hopes will turn things around, it remains to be seen if those efforts will succeed.</p>\n<p>Sundial's business deals could give investors reasons for optimism. After all, the company posted positive adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) in Q1 due to its investments.</p>\n<p>However, the cash that Sundial is using to make these investments has come at the cost of increased dilution of its stock. The company can't afford any additional dilution without having to resort to desperate measures to keep its listing on the&nbsp;<b>Nasdaq</b>&nbsp;stock exchange.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Meme Stocks Wall Street Predicts Will Plunge More Than 20%</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 Meme Stocks Wall Street Predicts Will Plunge More Than 20%\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-19 09:13 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/18/3-meme-stocks-wall-street-predicts-will-plunge-mor/><strong>fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Meme stocks have been all the rage so far this year.

The easing of restrictions has enabled the company to reopen 99% of its U.S. theaters. AMC could benefit as seating capacity limitations imposed by state and local governments are raised. Thereleases of multiple movies this summerand later this year that are likely to be hits should also help.\nHowever, Wall Street clearly believes that AMC's share price has gotten way ahead of its business prospects. The stock is trading at nearly eight times higher than it was before the COVID-19 pandemic.\nClover Health Investments\nOnly a few days ago, it looked like Clover Health Investments(NASDAQ:CLOV)might push AMC to the side as the hottest meme stock. Retail investors viewed Clover as a primeshort squeezecandidate.\nSince the beginning of June, shares of Clover Health have jumped more than 65%. Analysts, however, don't expect those gains to last. The average price target for the stock is 25% below the current share price.\nClover Health's valuation does seem to have gotten out of hand. The healthcare stock currently trades at more than 170 times trailing-12-month sales. That's a nosebleed level, especially considering that the company is the subject of investigations by the U.S. Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission.\nStill, Clover Health could deliver improving financial results this year. The company hopes to significantly increase its membership by targeting the original Medicare program. This represents a major new market opportunity in addition to its current Medicare Advantage business.\nSundial Growers\nAt one point earlier this year, Sundial Growers(NASDAQ:SNDL)appeared to be a legitimate contender to become the biggest winner among meme stocks. The Canadian marijuana stock vaulted more than 520% higher year to date before giving up much of its gains. However, Sundial's share price has still more than doubled in 2021.\nAnalysts anticipate that the pot stock could fall even further. The consensus price target for Sundial reflects a 23% discount to its current share price. One analyst even thinks the stock could sink 55%.\nThere certainly are reasons to be pessimistic about Sundial's core cannabis business. The company's net cannabis revenue fell year over year in the first quarter of 2021. Although Sundial is taking steps that it hopes will turn things around, it remains to be seen if those efforts will succeed.\nSundial's business deals could give investors reasons for optimism. After all, the company posted positive adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) in Q1 due to its investments.\nHowever, the cash that Sundial is using to make these investments has come at the cost of increased dilution of its stock. The company can't afford any additional dilution without having to resort to desperate measures to keep its listing on the Nasdaq stock exchange.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":175,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":129928067,"gmtCreate":1624352934459,"gmtModify":1703834192026,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ha ha&nbsp;","listText":"Ha ha&nbsp;","text":"Ha ha","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/129928067","repostId":"1147836907","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1147836907","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624351692,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1147836907?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-22 16:48","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Hedge fund that bet against GameStop shuts down","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1147836907","media":"Financial Times","summary":"White Square move marks one of first closures of fund hit by surges in so-called meme stocks.\n\nPleas","content":"<blockquote>\n White Square move marks one of first closures of fund hit by surges in so-called meme stocks.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Please use the sharing tools found via the share button at the top or side of articles.

Money managers are still finding select opportunities in emerging markets, including in commodity-rich countries like Brazil that have largely fallen out of investors’ portfolios in recent years.\nChina’s efforts to stem the surge in commodity prices and inflationary pressures—including releasing strategic reserves and instituting overseas trading curbs—sapped some of the momentum from the commodities rally.\nBut Gavekal Research analysts see China’s efforts as a pause rather than derailing the move higher in commodities like oil andcopper,for which China is more of a “price taker” rather than a “price setter.” Data suggests stockpiles for these commodities are at their lowest levels in a decade, according to Gavekal analysts, who see the recent pullback in commodity prices as a pause rather than the end of the rally.\nThat could be good for select resource-rich emerging markets. For investors, picking spots within emerging markets will continue to be paramount. In addition to countries like Brazil that could benefit from continued demand for commodities, several tourism-oriented companies in southeast Asian countries—like Thailand—could benefit as the global recovery continues and vaccination rates in countries improves.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":171,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":167291826,"gmtCreate":1624268792065,"gmtModify":1703832011246,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"?","listText":"?","text":"?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/167291826","repostId":"1153139723","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1153139723","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624268461,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1153139723?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-21 17:41","market":"sh","language":"en","title":"Sluggish household income growth is ‘holding back’ Chinese consumer spending, says Barclays","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1153139723","media":"cnbc","summary":"KEY POINTS\n\nLower-income groups have been hit particularly hard by a slowdown in household income gr","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nLower-income groups have been hit particularly hard by a slowdown in household income growth, says Barclays Asia Pacific’s Jian Chang.\nConsumer spending in China has largely lagged the ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/21/slow-income-growth-is-holding-back-the-chinese-consumer-barclays.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Official data reported retail sales rose 12.4% in May from a year ago, less than the 13.6% increase forecast by analysts.\nBarclays economists said in a Wednesday note they do not see growth in China’s consumption and services returning to pre-Covid levels this year.\n“A fundamental issue, I think, that has been holding back the Chinese consumer spending is really the … slower household income growth, and particularly for lower income group,” Chang told CNBC’s “Squawk Box Asia” on Friday.\nIn 2020, China’scash-strapped poor took on more debtafter the pandemic hit job prospects.\nChang pointed to comments from Premier Li Keqiang last year in which he said roughly600 million people earn just 1,000 renminbi per month(about $155).\nShe noted that migrant worker salaries have also struggled to recover, posting growth of just 2.5% as compared with 6.5% pre-pandemic.\nThese are headwinds for Beijing as the Chinese government hopes to promote its“dual circulation” policy, which places greater emphasis on consumption as a key economic driver.\n“To improve household consumption share in the GDP you really need to improve household income share in the GDP,” Chang said.\n“That means you really need to improve income distribution … which we know that is quite difficult, especially after the global financial crisis and after the pandemic. We really see globally, you know, there is the widening of income gap and the widening of wealth gap,” she said.\nChang said there’s also a gap in where spending occurs. While larger stores and shopping malls have been “quite strong,” Chang said smaller stores are not seeing the same performance.\n“If you look at the smaller store sales, which accounts for two-thirds of overall retail sales, that has really been underperforming and is not even half of its growth rate pre-pandemic,” Chang said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":78,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":162716698,"gmtCreate":1624075472014,"gmtModify":1703828320591,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/162716698","repostId":"2144774740","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2144774740","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"The leading daily newsletter for the latest financial and business news. 33Yrs Helping Stock Investors with Investing Insights, Tools, News & More.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Investors","id":"1085713068","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/608dd68a89ed486e18f64efe3136266c"},"pubTimestamp":1624030096,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2144774740?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-18 23:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Adobe Getting Lift From Economic Reopening Post-Pandemic","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2144774740","media":"Investors","summary":"Software giant Adobe is benefiting as the economy reopens following the Covid-19 pandemic, a senior executive says.","content":"<p>Software giant <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ADBE\">Adobe</a></b> is benefiting as the economy reopens as the Covid-19 pandemic wanes, a senior executive says.

The current quarter includes the summer months of June, July and August.\n\"The macroeconomic stability is giving a lot of enterprises confidence to invest again,\" Murphy said. \"Companies are prioritizing digital transformation.\"\nThe reopening of the economy and return to offices after the pandemic should provide a tailwind for Adobe's business, he said.\nAnalysts Raise Price Targets On Adobe Stock\nAt least 15 Wall Street analysts raised their price targets on ADBE stock after the earnings report.\nMizuho Securities analyst Gregg Moskowitz reiterated his buy rating on ADBE stock and upped his price target to 640 from 600.\n\"Adobe's expansive portfolio of software solutions has made it the gold standard in content creation, consumption, and collaboration,\" Moskowitz said in a note to clients. \"Adobe is very well positioned to benefit from digital transformation with its comprehensive end-to-end offering that differentiates it from competitors.\"\nOn June 11, ADBE stock broke out of a 40-week consolidation period at a buy point of 536.98, according to IBD MarketSmith charts.\nHowever, IBD Leaderboard analysis offered investors an earlier buy point of 525.54 from a cup base within the larger consolidation pattern.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":6,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":162718508,"gmtCreate":1624075449904,"gmtModify":1703828318958,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/162718508","repostId":"2144086770","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2144086770","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1624062134,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2144086770?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-19 08:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Largest Boeing 737 MAX model takes off on maiden flight","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2144086770","media":"Reuters","summary":"RENTON, Wash., June 18 (Reuters) - Boeing Co's 737 MAX 10, the largest member of its best-selling si","content":"<p>RENTON, Wash., June 18 (Reuters) - Boeing Co's 737 MAX 10, the largest member of its best-selling single-aisle airplane family, took off on its maiden flight on Friday, in a further step toward recovering from the safety grounding of a smaller model.</p>\n<p>The plane completed a roughly 2-1/2-hour flight over Washington State, returning to Renton Municipal Airport near Seattle at 12:38 p.m.</p>\n<p>The first flight heralds months of testing and safety certification work before the jet is expected to enter service in 2023.</p>\n<p>In an unusual departure from the PR buzz surrounding first flights, the event was kept low-key as Boeing tries to navigate overlapping crises caused by a 20-month grounding in the wake of two crashes and the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>\n<p>Boeing's 230-seat 737-10 is designed to close the gap between its 178-to-220-seat 737-9, and Airbus's 185-to-240-seat A321neo, which dominates the top end of the narrowbody jet market, worth some $3.5 trillion over 20 years.</p>\n<p>However, the market opportunity for the 737 MAX 10 is constrained by the jet's range of about 3,300 nautical miles (6,100 km), which falls short of the A321neo's roughly 4,000 nm.</p>\n<p>Boeing must also complete safety certification of the plane under a tougher regulatory climate following two fatal crashes of a smaller 737 MAX version grounded the model for nearly two years - with a safety ban still in place in China.</p>\n<p>Boeing has carried out design and training changes on the MAX family, which returned to U.S. operations in December.</p>\n<p>Boeing Commercial Airplanes CEO Stan Deal said the company is producing about 16 737 MAX jets a month at its Renton factory.</p>\n<p>Boeing is working on safety enhancements for the 737 MAX 10, including for its air data indication system and adding a third cockpit indication requested by European regulators of the \"angle of attack,\" a parameter needed to avoid stalling or losing lift.

And where investors may have to be more careful.</li>\n <li>Emotion may tell you to buy. Reason will tell you to sell.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>I’ve written two articles recently for Seeking Alpha on AMC Entertainment Holdings(NYSE:AMC), one onJune 4and one onJune 17. The comments I have gotten back in response to the articles were eye-opening for me. I feel like I’ve been let into a world I didn’t know existed. Which means that I also must seem pretty odd to the inhabitants of this ape-world. So, I’d like to explain my point of view in this open letter.</p>\n<p><b>Why I keep harping on AMC’s earnings</b></p>\n<p>One shocker to me is that literally<i>no</i>comment that disagreed with my AMC view ever challenged me on earnings. The same is true for comments on my sell calls on Zillow(NASDAQ:Z), Redfin(NASDAQ:RDFN), Rocket Companies(NYSE:RKT)and Opendoor(NASDAQ:OPEN). So, why do I keep talking about earnings?<i>Because that’s how stocks work.</i>First, common sense says that it works. A share of stock is a share ownership of a company; that’s just a fact. We start and own businesses in order to earn money.</p>\n<p>Second, history says that the relationship between earnings and stock prices exists. A few charts will illustrate this point. First, let’s compare the S&amp;P 500 index with S&amp;P 500 EPS a year ahead:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d09e129752eec6290923863d17249487\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"426\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>Sources:Yahoo Finance,Yardeni Research</i></p>\n<p>The stock market clearly moves with earnings expectations. Now, let’s look at an individual stock. I chose McDonald’s(NYSE:MCD):</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/092d5bc6eb84253ba4ae6fea1f92113f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"430\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>Sources:Yahoo Finance,company reports</i></p>\n<p>Once again, a clear correlation – McDonald’s earns more, investors pay more to own it. Let’s now turn to a company whose earnings prospects took a turn – GoPro(NASDAQ:GPRO):</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6cb1e3a96d4e6e70cc8cb8dbc3b4643f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"431\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>Sources:Yahoo Finance,company reports</i></p>\n<p>GoPro’s stock price leaped after its IPO on the assumption that booming sales of its cameras would send earnings soaring above its 2014 EPS of $1.32. But smartphones – the cameras in our pockets – diverted sales away from GoPro, and its EPS took a serious slide into negative territory. In response, the stock tanked. It has only recently made a modest recovery as GoPro management managed to start earning money.<i>Again, a clear link between earnings and the stock price</i>.</p>\n<p>OK, one more – company X:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f3b9e1ded9a66995ca17edc221ddd9a6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>Sources:Yahoo Finance,company reports</i></p>\n<p>Another excellent correlation between earnings and stock price. This company saw some EPS growth during 2015 and 2016, but earnings then turned south. The stock price followed.</p>\n<p>Who is this company X? I bet you guessed it – AMC!<i>Up until the pandemic hit, AMC’s stock performed like other stocks – on earnings expectations. It will again.</i></p>\n<p><b>Do you want to own an AMC theater?</b></p>\n<p>Instead of owning AMC stock, how about if you owned an AMC theater? This way, you are a real business owner.</p>\n<p>At last look, AMC’s market cap is $30.5 billion. Add in about $3.5 billion of debt less cash and we’ll say that AMC’s theaters are currently valued at $34 billion. At the beginning of this year, AMC had 950 movie theaters. That means, each theater is valued today at $36 million.</p>\n<p>If you don’t borrow money to pay your $36 million, my best guess from AMC’s financials is that you’ll rake in $220,000 in profits. Not bad, right? A cool 0.6% return on your investment. A return likely to shrink over time as we spend more time streaming and less time at the movies. Or you could buy more current favorite stock MGIC(NYSE:MTG), which last year generatedcash EPS of $2.45, an 18% return on its current stock price. But you would have to give up the free movie tickets from owning a theater. Your choice. I’ve gone for the latter. 18% &gt; 0.6%.</p>\n<p><b>Is it really different this time?</b></p>\n<p>Will AMC stock continue to rise just because apes continue to put more and more money in it? Can AMC become a permanent short squeeze?</p>\n<p>I’m old. While that means my tennis game is sinking, it also has allowed me to see lots of “it’s different this time” stories. They almost never work. Gravity takes over and brings magical beliefs back to earth. The ‘80s commercial real estate boom, the ‘90s internet boom, the ‘00s housing boom, all relied on broad-based beliefs that this time was different, and if you didn’t agree, “you don’t get it”. Gravity brought all three beliefs painfully back to earth. Betting against gravity is a serious long shot.</p>\n<p><b>Is the stock market fixed?</b></p>\n<p>Lots of the comments to my articles suggested that meme investing is revenge against a financial system fixed against the little guy and gal. I consider myself to be pretty cynical, but I can’t see the stock market as a whole as fixed. Some evidence:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><i>The link I established above between earnings and stock prices.</i>This means that, in the long run, it is company performance that determines stock prices, not Wall Street.</li>\n <li><i>Mutual funds routinely underperform index funds.</i>Big fund complexes like BlackRock, T. Rowe Price and Fidelity all have highly paid analysts and portfolio managers running their money. But many studies have shown that they generally do<i>worse</i>than market averages. So, they are no better than we are.</li>\n <li><i>Hedge funds have done even worse.</i>For example,NASDAQreported that the average hedge fund earned 11% in 2020, well below the S&amp;P 500 18% return. And they did far worse in 2019 – up 10% compared to +31% for the S&amp;P 500. My belief is that hedge funds have too much money chasing a small group of trades. Now, hedge fund<i>managers</i>can make obscene amounts of money because of their lucrative 2%/20% compensation structure. That’s another story. But hedge fund investors have been left behind.</li>\n <li><i>Wall Street is blanketed with regulations aimed at levelling the playing field.</i>There are rules against insider trading, selectively disseminating material information and many other forms of bad behavior. Of course, smart people can and do slip by some rules, but rampant cheating is quite difficult to achieve.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Are short sellers lying to support their positions?</b></p>\n<p>There certainly are cases of this, but a far simpler answer explains why GameStop(NYSE:GME)and AMC are short targets. Come on – both are store-based businesses in an increasingly online world, right? With several years of losses behind them already. Blockbuster, Sears, Pier One… shorting the Old Economy is not rocket science.</p>\n<p>But how are potential investors in these New Age companies supposed to deal with these dramatic claims?</p>\n<p>Zillow. From its10-K:</p>\n<blockquote>\n “ \n <i>As we continue to expand into transaction-related services, our Total Addressable Market [TAM] has expanded from $19 billion in U.S. real estate related advertising…to $2.2 trillion of annual home sales…</i>”\n</blockquote>\n<p>Sounds awesome, right? $2.2&nbsp;<i>trillion</i>&nbsp;of potential revenues for Zillow. Except if home sellers expect to keep some of the proceeds of their home sales. In fact, the average real estate commission is 4.5%, giving Zillow an actual TAM of $100 billion. $100 billion &lt; $2.2 trillion. By a<i>lot.</i></p>\n<p>Rocket Mortgage. From itsQ1 earnings conference call:</p>\n<blockquote>\n “ \n <i>As we continue to expand our platform, creating certainty for clients in categories that have historically been challenging, the opportunity for Rocket Companies is gigantic.

Here's the data.\nThe economics of buying an AMC movie theater rather than the stock.\nShorting AMC is mostly common sense, not a conspiracy. And where investors may have to be more careful.\nEmotion may tell you to buy. Reason will tell you to sell.\n\nI’ve written two articles recently for Seeking Alpha on AMC Entertainment Holdings(NYSE:AMC), one onJune 4and one onJune 17. The comments I have gotten back in response to the articles were eye-opening for me. I feel like I’ve been let into a world I didn’t know existed. Which means that I also must seem pretty odd to the inhabitants of this ape-world. So, I’d like to explain my point of view in this open letter.\nWhy I keep harping on AMC’s earnings\nOne shocker to me is that literallynocomment that disagreed with my AMC view ever challenged me on earnings. The same is true for comments on my sell calls on Zillow(NASDAQ:Z), Redfin(NASDAQ:RDFN), Rocket Companies(NYSE:RKT)and Opendoor(NASDAQ:OPEN). So, why do I keep talking about earnings?Because that’s how stocks work.First, common sense says that it works. A share of stock is a share ownership of a company; that’s just a fact. We start and own businesses in order to earn money.\nSecond, history says that the relationship between earnings and stock prices exists. A few charts will illustrate this point. First, let’s compare the S&P 500 index with S&P 500 EPS a year ahead:\n\nSources:Yahoo Finance,Yardeni Research\nThe stock market clearly moves with earnings expectations. Now, let’s look at an individual stock. I chose McDonald’s(NYSE:MCD):\n\nSources:Yahoo Finance,company reports\nOnce again, a clear correlation – McDonald’s earns more, investors pay more to own it. Let’s now turn to a company whose earnings prospects took a turn – GoPro(NASDAQ:GPRO):\n\nSources:Yahoo Finance,company reports\nGoPro’s stock price leaped after its IPO on the assumption that booming sales of its cameras would send earnings soaring above its 2014 EPS of $1.32. But smartphones – the cameras in our pockets – diverted sales away from GoPro, and its EPS took a serious slide into negative territory. In response, the stock tanked. It has only recently made a modest recovery as GoPro management managed to start earning money.Again, a clear link between earnings and the stock price.\nOK, one more – company X:\n\nSources:Yahoo Finance,company reports\nAnother excellent correlation between earnings and stock price. This company saw some EPS growth during 2015 and 2016, but earnings then turned south. The stock price followed.\nWho is this company X? I bet you guessed it – AMC!Up until the pandemic hit, AMC’s stock performed like other stocks – on earnings expectations. It will again.\nDo you want to own an AMC theater?\nInstead of owning AMC stock, how about if you owned an AMC theater? This way, you are a real business owner.\nAt last look, AMC’s market cap is $30.5 billion. Add in about $3.5 billion of debt less cash and we’ll say that AMC’s theaters are currently valued at $34 billion. At the beginning of this year, AMC had 950 movie theaters. That means, each theater is valued today at $36 million.\nIf you don’t borrow money to pay your $36 million, my best guess from AMC’s financials is that you’ll rake in $220,000 in profits. Not bad, right? A cool 0.6% return on your investment. A return likely to shrink over time as we spend more time streaming and less time at the movies. Or you could buy more current favorite stock MGIC(NYSE:MTG), which last year generatedcash EPS of $2.45, an 18% return on its current stock price. But you would have to give up the free movie tickets from owning a theater. Your choice. I’ve gone for the latter. 18% > 0.6%.\nIs it really different this time?\nWill AMC stock continue to rise just because apes continue to put more and more money in it? Can AMC become a permanent short squeeze?\nI’m old. While that means my tennis game is sinking, it also has allowed me to see lots of “it’s different this time” stories. They almost never work. Gravity takes over and brings magical beliefs back to earth. The ‘80s commercial real estate boom, the ‘90s internet boom, the ‘00s housing boom, all relied on broad-based beliefs that this time was different, and if you didn’t agree, “you don’t get it”. Gravity brought all three beliefs painfully back to earth. Betting against gravity is a serious long shot.\nIs the stock market fixed?\nLots of the comments to my articles suggested that meme investing is revenge against a financial system fixed against the little guy and gal. I consider myself to be pretty cynical, but I can’t see the stock market as a whole as fixed. Some evidence:\n\nThe link I established above between earnings and stock prices.This means that, in the long run, it is company performance that determines stock prices, not Wall Street.\nMutual funds routinely underperform index funds.Big fund complexes like BlackRock, T. Rowe Price and Fidelity all have highly paid analysts and portfolio managers running their money. But many studies have shown that they generally doworsethan market averages. So, they are no better than we are.\nHedge funds have done even worse.For example,NASDAQreported that the average hedge fund earned 11% in 2020, well below the S&P 500 18% return. And they did far worse in 2019 – up 10% compared to +31% for the S&P 500. My belief is that hedge funds have too much money chasing a small group of trades. Now, hedge fundmanagerscan make obscene amounts of money because of their lucrative 2%/20% compensation structure. That’s another story. But hedge fund investors have been left behind.\nWall Street is blanketed with regulations aimed at levelling the playing field.There are rules against insider trading, selectively disseminating material information and many other forms of bad behavior. Of course, smart people can and do slip by some rules, but rampant cheating is quite difficult to achieve.\n\nAre short sellers lying to support their positions?\nThere certainly are cases of this, but a far simpler answer explains why GameStop(NYSE:GME)and AMC are short targets. Come on – both are store-based businesses in an increasingly online world, right? With several years of losses behind them already. Blockbuster, Sears, Pier One… shorting the Old Economy is not rocket science.\nBut how are potential investors in these New Age companies supposed to deal with these dramatic claims?\nZillow. From its10-K:\n\n “ \n As we continue to expand into transaction-related services, our Total Addressable Market [TAM] has expanded from $19 billion in U.S. real estate related advertising…to $2.2 trillion of annual home sales…”\n\nSounds awesome, right? $2.2 trillion of potential revenues for Zillow. Except if home sellers expect to keep some of the proceeds of their home sales. In fact, the average real estate commission is 4.5%, giving Zillow an actual TAM of $100 billion. $100 billion < $2.2 trillion. By alot.\nRocket Mortgage. From itsQ1 earnings conference call:\n\n “ \n As we continue to expand our platform, creating certainty for clients in categories that have historically been challenging, the opportunity for Rocket Companies is gigantic. Consider this; when combined real estate, automotive sales and financial services, all markets where we're helping to lead the way, account for nearly one third of the US GDP.” (My highlighting)\n\nWow! Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) will soon be a blip in Rocket’s rear-view mirror if I believe any of this. By the way, check out Rocket’s insider sales while management is dishing out this hype.\nEmotions versus reason\nI see a lot of anger, frustration, and revenge in the AMC comments. Life stinks a lot, so I get the rationale for these emotions. But I have learned that emotions are the enemy of successful investing.Anyemotions, ranging from fear to enthusiasm. Rational thinking about a company’s value, or even (not my style) investors’ moods, has proven to work better.\nAll of us primates, human and ape, are heavily driven by emotions (even me!), so we are never going to squeeze all of them out of our investment decisions. But the more squeezing, the better.\nAll of the above says “Sell AMC”\n\nAMC’s earnings prospects can’t come close to supporting the current stock price. Gravity will do its job.\nIf you don’t want to own a movie theater, don’t own the stock.\nAMC short sellers are driven more by common sense than by some conspiracy.\nAMC’s stock price contains an enormous emotional content, and a change in those fickle emotions will change the stock price quickly.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":236,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121316344,"gmtCreate":1624453635888,"gmtModify":1703837125572,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/121316344","repostId":"1145825451","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1145825451","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624433586,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1145825451?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-23 15:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why I Believe NIO Will Beat Out Tesla","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1145825451","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.Super fans of the latest and greatest high-endTesla, Inc. model received some disappointing news a week ago when CEO Elon Musk abruptly canceled the release of its highly anticipated Model S Plaid Plus with a tweet on June 6.Instead, the company has begun delivering a new Model S Plaid that has only a 390-mile range and 1,020 horsepower, though it still sprints to from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just two seconds.The go","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Super fans of the latest and greatest high-end<b>Tesla, Inc.</b>(NASDAQ:<b>TSLA</b>) model received some disappointing news a week ago when CEO Elon Musk abruptly canceled the release of its highly anticipated Model S Plaid Plus with a tweet on June 6.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b294a3604c7ba82bd19b3c70be3a4020\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: nrqemi / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>Musk wrote there was… “No need, as Plaid is just so good.”</p>\n<p>The Model S Plaid Plus was supposed to be the fastest, most powerful and priciest version of the company’s Model S. Priced at $149,990, it was to feature a range of 520 miles, thanks to its innovative 4680 battery cells, 1,100 horsepower and the ability to speed from 0 to 60 mph in less than two seconds.</p>\n<p>Instead, the company has begun delivering a new Model S Plaid that has only a 390-mile range and 1,020 horsepower, though it still sprints to from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just two seconds.</p>\n<p>As a way to “sugar coat” its flip flop, Tesla said the Model S Plaid is just as fast as the Model S Plaid Plus and $20,000 cheaper. Humm.</p>\n<p>This “bait and switch” has some Tesla fans worried, since they had deposits on the Model S Plaid Plus and wanted the innovative 4680 battery cells that Tesla had been touting as the key to longer range and more power. Essentially, the 4680 battery cells were the latest great Tesla development, since they were the first batteries to also be a structural component that supposedly allowed Tesla to lower the weight of its vehicles.</p>\n<p>Both the company’s Austin and Berlin manufacturing plants now under construction are supposed to also be making the 4680 batteries for new Tesla vehicles. If there is a problem with the engineering associated with utilizing the 4680 batteries or making them a structural component, then Tesla has grossly miscalculated, which is now worrying investors.</p>\n<p>Clearly something happened to delay the 4680 batteries that were supposed to provide Tesla with a competitive and engineering edge. For Tesla’s sake, I hope they figure out the problems associated with their much hyped 4680 battery cells, otherwise concerns about its two new manufacturing plants will emerge, as well as the stock losing more of its “mojo.”</p>\n<p>As someone who owns more than a few high-performance vehicles, I can tell you that the engineering geeks I know do<i>not</i>want to get a new Model S Plaid instead of a Model S Plaid Plus and will likely ask for their deposits back.</p>\n<p>What Tesla did is like Ferrari or Porsche telling its customers that one of their much-hyped new performance models is now not being sold because the base model was just as good! Car fanatics, like myself, like the latest and greatest engineering tidbits, so we would rather cancel our orders versus settle for a base model.</p>\n<p>The good news for Tesla is that its China sales in May resurged to 21,936, up sharply from 11,671 in April. The company’s sales tend to spike at the end of each quarter. For example, Tesla sold 35,478 vehicles in China in March, which was the strongest month ever in China.</p>\n<p>This is raising expectations for very strong China sales in June, especially now that the Model Y is being manufactured in Shanghai. Interestingly, since most Chinese Teslas are now made with iron phosphate batteries, these vehicles have lower range than its lithium cobalt vehicles, but its iron phosphate vehicles are cheaper and now increasingly being exported to Europe.</p>\n<p>However, I’m convinced another electric vehicle (EV) company will eventually displace Tesla as the biggest manufacturer of EVs in China.</p>\n<p><b>Taking Advantage of the EV Revolution’s Profit Potential</b></p>\n<p>I’m talking about&nbsp;<b>Nio, Inc.</b>(NYSE:<b>NIO</b>). The reality is that this company is on the verge of dominating the EV market in China and Hong Kong. It’s why I put NIO on my<b><i>Platinum Growth Club</i></b>Model Portfolio back in February.</p>\n<p>The company boasts that it is the “next-generation car company,” as it designs and manufactures electric vehicles that utilize the latest technologies in connectivity, autonomous driving and artificial intelligence (AI). NIO currently offers an electric seven-seater SUV (ES8) and a five-seater electric SUV (ES6) and recently introduced an attractive electric sedan (ET7). Its vehicles utilize NOMI, an in-vehicle artificial intelligence assistant.</p>\n<p>The company is also partnering with cutting-edge chip companies like<b>NVIDIA Corporation</b>(NASDAQ:<b>NVDA</b>), another one of my<b><i>Platinum Growth Club</i></b>Model Portfolio stocks. NIO plans to use the NVIDIA DRIVE Orin system-on-a-chip for its electric vehicles that will provide autonomous driving capabilities. The NVIDIA DRIVE Orin-powered supercomputer, which is being called Adam, will be launched in the ET7 sedan in China in 2022. Announcements like this are very positive, so NIO has been stealing some of Tesla’s thunder lately.</p>\n<p>Now, it’s important to note that NIO was bailed out by the Chinese government. Last year, the Chinese government injected $1 billion and now has a 24% ownership in the company. The reality is that China wants to dominate at least five major industries by 2025, and NIO is now its ticket to dominate EV manufacturing.</p>\n<p>With the backing of the Chinese government, some Wall Street firms are eager to help NIO by issuing new debt or equity. So, I wouldn’t be surprised if NIO surpasses Tesla, which is currently number-two in China, for market share in the upcoming years.</p>\n<p>That means, if you missed Tesla’s parabolic run like I did, NIO is essentially giving us a “second chance” to make money in a potentially explosive electric vehicle company.</p>\n<p>Shares of NIO climbed nearly 13% since the company’s June 4 announcement of its May delivery report and positive analyst comments, while Tesla shares rose almost 3%.

Priced at $149,990, it was to feature a range of 520 miles, thanks to its innovative 4680 battery cells, 1,100 horsepower and the ability to speed from 0 to 60 mph in less than two seconds.\nInstead, the company has begun delivering a new Model S Plaid that has only a 390-mile range and 1,020 horsepower, though it still sprints to from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just two seconds.\nAs a way to “sugar coat” its flip flop, Tesla said the Model S Plaid is just as fast as the Model S Plaid Plus and $20,000 cheaper. Humm.\nThis “bait and switch” has some Tesla fans worried, since they had deposits on the Model S Plaid Plus and wanted the innovative 4680 battery cells that Tesla had been touting as the key to longer range and more power. Essentially, the 4680 battery cells were the latest great Tesla development, since they were the first batteries to also be a structural component that supposedly allowed Tesla to lower the weight of its vehicles.\nBoth the company’s Austin and Berlin manufacturing plants now under construction are supposed to also be making the 4680 batteries for new Tesla vehicles. If there is a problem with the engineering associated with utilizing the 4680 batteries or making them a structural component, then Tesla has grossly miscalculated, which is now worrying investors.\nClearly something happened to delay the 4680 batteries that were supposed to provide Tesla with a competitive and engineering edge. For Tesla’s sake, I hope they figure out the problems associated with their much hyped 4680 battery cells, otherwise concerns about its two new manufacturing plants will emerge, as well as the stock losing more of its “mojo.”\nAs someone who owns more than a few high-performance vehicles, I can tell you that the engineering geeks I know donotwant to get a new Model S Plaid instead of a Model S Plaid Plus and will likely ask for their deposits back.\nWhat Tesla did is like Ferrari or Porsche telling its customers that one of their much-hyped new performance models is now not being sold because the base model was just as good! Car fanatics, like myself, like the latest and greatest engineering tidbits, so we would rather cancel our orders versus settle for a base model.\nThe good news for Tesla is that its China sales in May resurged to 21,936, up sharply from 11,671 in April. The company’s sales tend to spike at the end of each quarter. For example, Tesla sold 35,478 vehicles in China in March, which was the strongest month ever in China.\nThis is raising expectations for very strong China sales in June, especially now that the Model Y is being manufactured in Shanghai. Interestingly, since most Chinese Teslas are now made with iron phosphate batteries, these vehicles have lower range than its lithium cobalt vehicles, but its iron phosphate vehicles are cheaper and now increasingly being exported to Europe.\nHowever, I’m convinced another electric vehicle (EV) company will eventually displace Tesla as the biggest manufacturer of EVs in China.\nTaking Advantage of the EV Revolution’s Profit Potential\nI’m talking about Nio, Inc.(NYSE:NIO). The reality is that this company is on the verge of dominating the EV market in China and Hong Kong. It’s why I put NIO on myPlatinum Growth ClubModel Portfolio back in February.\nThe company boasts that it is the “next-generation car company,” as it designs and manufactures electric vehicles that utilize the latest technologies in connectivity, autonomous driving and artificial intelligence (AI). NIO currently offers an electric seven-seater SUV (ES8) and a five-seater electric SUV (ES6) and recently introduced an attractive electric sedan (ET7). Its vehicles utilize NOMI, an in-vehicle artificial intelligence assistant.\nThe company is also partnering with cutting-edge chip companies likeNVIDIA Corporation(NASDAQ:NVDA), another one of myPlatinum Growth ClubModel Portfolio stocks. NIO plans to use the NVIDIA DRIVE Orin system-on-a-chip for its electric vehicles that will provide autonomous driving capabilities. The NVIDIA DRIVE Orin-powered supercomputer, which is being called Adam, will be launched in the ET7 sedan in China in 2022. Announcements like this are very positive, so NIO has been stealing some of Tesla’s thunder lately.\nNow, it’s important to note that NIO was bailed out by the Chinese government. Last year, the Chinese government injected $1 billion and now has a 24% ownership in the company. The reality is that China wants to dominate at least five major industries by 2025, and NIO is now its ticket to dominate EV manufacturing.\nWith the backing of the Chinese government, some Wall Street firms are eager to help NIO by issuing new debt or equity. So, I wouldn’t be surprised if NIO surpasses Tesla, which is currently number-two in China, for market share in the upcoming years.\nThat means, if you missed Tesla’s parabolic run like I did, NIO is essentially giving us a “second chance” to make money in a potentially explosive electric vehicle company.\nShares of NIO climbed nearly 13% since the company’s June 4 announcement of its May delivery report and positive analyst comments, while Tesla shares rose almost 3%. First, NIO revealed that the global chip shortage is starting to take a toll on its business. NIO only delivered 6,711 vehicles in May, or a 5.5% decline from April’s deliveries. Company management noted that deliveries were “adversely impacted for several days due to the volatility of semiconductor supply and certain logistical adjustments.”\nInterestingly, despite the month-to-month dip, NIO’s deliveries were still up 95.3% year-over-year. Strong demand in China even inspired a Citigroup analyst to upgrade NIO to a buy rating, as he expects demand to accelerate in the coming months.\nIn other words, NIO represents thecrème de la crèmeof EV stocks right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":399,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":129925969,"gmtCreate":1624353078451,"gmtModify":1703834194467,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/129925969","repostId":"1129393435","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129393435","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624346578,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1129393435?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-22 15:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Microsoft Stock Is Boss, But it Would Be Even Better Lower","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129393435","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"MSFT stock owners are reaping the rewards of excellent management.\n\nThe stock market closed last wee","content":"<blockquote>\n MSFT stock owners are reaping the rewards of excellent management.\n</blockquote>\n<p>The stock market closed last week on a red note.

In the long term, it works out better if we made smaller mistakes.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":341,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":129926249,"gmtCreate":1624353020181,"gmtModify":1703834192839,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yes&nbsp;","listText":"Yes&nbsp;","text":"Yes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/129926249","repostId":"1129553884","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":87,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":129921821,"gmtCreate":1624352881563,"gmtModify":1703834189572,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/129921821","repostId":"1107327307","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":137,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":167296369,"gmtCreate":1624268926051,"gmtModify":1703832013866,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok&nbsp;","listText":"Ok&nbsp;","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/167296369","repostId":"2145086038","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2145086038","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1624263852,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2145086038?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-21 16:24","market":"sh","language":"en","title":"Hong Kong stocks end lower after Fed's surprise turn","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2145086038","media":"Reuters","summary":"HK->Shanghai Connect daily quota used -1.2%, Shanghai->HK daily quota used -3%\nHSI -1.1%, HSCE -0.9%","content":"<ul>\n <li>HK-&gt;Shanghai Connect daily quota used -1.2%, Shanghai-&gt;HK daily quota used -3%</li>\n <li>HSI -1.1%, HSCE -0.9%, CSI300 -0.2%</li>\n <li>FTSE China A50 -0.7%</li>\n</ul>\n<p>June 21 (Reuters) - Hong Kong stocks fell on Monday, largely in line with other Asian markets, as investors pondered the implications of the U.S. Federal Reserve's surprise hawkish shift last week.</p>\n<p>At the close of trade, the Hang Seng index was down 312.27 points, or 1.08%, at 28,489.00.

The question that a lot of investors are asking now is, \"Should I buy Biogen&nbsp;stock after this big FDA approval for its Alzheimer's disease drug?\" Brian, what should investors be factoring in to their decision making process right now? What's your take on whether or not Biogen is a buy right now?</p>\n<p><b>Brian Orelli:</b>From a valuation standpoint, it's easy to look at historical data and see where they've been trading. I tend to look at price-to-sales just because drug companies, if you use the earnings, it's a little more difficult because they have a lot of one-time events and acquisitions and things like that and licensing deals that throw off their GAAP earnings. Then if you're looking at historical earnings, they usually don't back those out, so I use price-to-sales as a metric.</p>\n<p>Biogen is trading at least after Monday's, after Monday's jump, it was at 4.9 price-to-sales ratio. Last time it traded at that level was in the 2018, 2019 time frame, and at that point, revenue was hovering around 10% growth.</p>\n<p>To justify this price-to-sales ratio, you have to expect that sales are going to grow by 10% per year. Revenue was $13.45 billion in 2020. You need to get to $14.8 billion to get to that 10% growth. Guidance for next year is for it to drop to $10.45 billion to $10.75 billion, and they had already factored in modest revenue from Aduhelm in 2021.</p>\n<p>At the high end, Biogen needs $4 billion in sales to justify the current valuation. Four billion would be completely reasonable for an Alzheimer's disease drug, and $10 billion would probably be reasonable, but that would be a drug that actually helps patients. As we've said, there's not enough data to know whether Aduhelm actually helps patients.</p>\n<p>Medicare, they've got the drug approved so that's good, but they need to get the doctors to prescribe it, and they need to get insurers to cover it. Medicare will probably cover it, but it's an infused product and that means it's covered under Medicare Part B, B as in boy, not D as in drugs. That comes with a 20% copay after reaching the deductible. We're talking about $10,000 for the patients they're going to have to pay on the drug. That's going to really limit sales.</p>\n<p>If you want to look at it at a different way, if you assume the valuation already factors in the fall to around $10.5 billion and then you are looking for 10% growth from there, now you only need $1 billion or so in sales to justify that growth. Maybe that seems a little more doable, but then that assumes that the revenue from the multiple sclerosis drugs, Tecfidera and Rituxan, that are causing the drop this year, and that you have to assume that's going to just stop.</p>\n<p>I don't think that's going to stop, so that means either they're going to generate more than $1 billion to justify 10% growth from 2021-2022.

What's your take on whether or not Biogen is a buy right now?\nBrian Orelli:From a valuation standpoint, it's easy to look at historical data and see where they've been trading. I tend to look at price-to-sales just because drug companies, if you use the earnings, it's a little more difficult because they have a lot of one-time events and acquisitions and things like that and licensing deals that throw off their GAAP earnings. Then if you're looking at historical earnings, they usually don't back those out, so I use price-to-sales as a metric.\nBiogen is trading at least after Monday's, after Monday's jump, it was at 4.9 price-to-sales ratio. Last time it traded at that level was in the 2018, 2019 time frame, and at that point, revenue was hovering around 10% growth.\nTo justify this price-to-sales ratio, you have to expect that sales are going to grow by 10% per year. Revenue was $13.45 billion in 2020. You need to get to $14.8 billion to get to that 10% growth. Guidance for next year is for it to drop to $10.45 billion to $10.75 billion, and they had already factored in modest revenue from Aduhelm in 2021.\nAt the high end, Biogen needs $4 billion in sales to justify the current valuation. Four billion would be completely reasonable for an Alzheimer's disease drug, and $10 billion would probably be reasonable, but that would be a drug that actually helps patients. As we've said, there's not enough data to know whether Aduhelm actually helps patients.\nMedicare, they've got the drug approved so that's good, but they need to get the doctors to prescribe it, and they need to get insurers to cover it. Medicare will probably cover it, but it's an infused product and that means it's covered under Medicare Part B, B as in boy, not D as in drugs. That comes with a 20% copay after reaching the deductible. We're talking about $10,000 for the patients they're going to have to pay on the drug. That's going to really limit sales.\nIf you want to look at it at a different way, if you assume the valuation already factors in the fall to around $10.5 billion and then you are looking for 10% growth from there, now you only need $1 billion or so in sales to justify that growth. Maybe that seems a little more doable, but then that assumes that the revenue from the multiple sclerosis drugs, Tecfidera and Rituxan, that are causing the drop this year, and that you have to assume that's going to just stop.\nI don't think that's going to stop, so that means either they're going to generate more than $1 billion to justify 10% growth from 2021-2022. Very long story short, I have a hard time seeing the value of investing at this level.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":214,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121317787,"gmtCreate":1624453817749,"gmtModify":1703837132470,"author":{"id":"3574855965218634","authorId":"3574855965218634","name":"Bangaram","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c26643528d1c3fdd083336c2454f51e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574855965218634","authorIdStr":"3574855965218634"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/121317787","repostId":"2145283099","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":426,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
