More supply is expected to come online during the second half of 2021, but the global chip shortage will likely continue into 2022.</p>\n<p>Nevertheless, AMD's Q2 beat and further advance on the supply side led Su and the top team to raise its outlook for full-year 2021 sales growth.

While stock splits don’t change a firm’s valuation, Nvidia may initiate a new upleg as earnings next month are likely going to be impressive. My stock price target for Nvidia, adjusted for the stock split, is $250. Nvidia also faces a couple of tests and you should watch out for these key levels before buying.</p>\n<p><b>Nvidia’s stock split</b></p>\n<p>Nvidia’s&nbsp;4:1 stock split&nbsp;has made the stock look cheaper but the fundamentals or the valuation of the firm have not changed. If you bought 100 shares of Nvidia at $800 pre-split, you now own 400 shares with a cost base of $200… the total value of an investment position is unaffected by Nvidia’s stock split, in both cases it is $80,000.</p>\n<p>Companies execute stock splits to make their shares look more affordable and increase liquidity in the market. Nvidia, post-split, has the same market value as before, $485B, only the number of shares outstanding has increased by the factor of four. While there is no evidence that stock splits produce higher returns post-split, the fact that the stock, at least on paper, looks more affordable could lead to increased buying of Nvidia. My stock price target before the split was $1,000 (Nvidia: A $1,000 Stock Price Is Not As Crazy As It Sounds), which calculates to an adjusted stock price target of $250 post-split (28% upside).</p>\n<p><b>What's in store for Nvidia next month?</b></p>\n<p>Nvidia is set to open its books for the second quarter on August 18, 2021 and the semiconductor firm is likely going to report impressive revenue growth for Q2’22. Nvidia's total Q1'22 revenues got an&nbsp;84% bump&nbsp;year-over-year and increased at a 13%-rate Q/Q. Nvidia’s gaming revenues increased at an average annual rate of 22% since FY 2017 while its data center revenues soared 86% annually over the same time period, predominantly because of Nvidia’s Mellanox acquisition in 2020 which considerably expanded Nvidia’s presence in the high performance and data center computing markets.</p>\n<p>Nvidia gets the bulk of its revenues from gaming and data centers. Gaming center revenues increased 11% Q/Q to $2.76B in Q1’22 and revenues will likely have grown at a similar rate in Q2’22 due to strength in the gaming market and accelerating customer uptake of the GeForce RTX 30 Series GPU. The RTX 30 Series has been industry-defining by making \"ray tracing\" the new standard for game developers. Ray tracing is a graphics rendering method that allows for the realistic modeling of light effects in computer games. Strong sales in GeForce RTX 30 Series GPU sales could result in a 10-12% Q/Q revenue bump for Q2'22.</p>\n<p>Data centers, which generate the second biggest pile of revenues for Nvidia, saw growth slowing down in Q1'22 and I am looking forward to hearing an update from Nvidia's management about the prospects for the data center business for the rest of the year. I expect Nvidia to report mid-single-digit revenue growth in data centers for Q2'22 and, hopefully, an update about the Arm acquisition.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/84bb9f6f3dbca0c67e817a34367aec0a\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"620\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source:Nvidia)</span></p>\n<p>What will be interesting to see in next month’s earnings report is how the Chinese cryptocurrency crackdown is impacting Nvidia’s cryptocurrency mining processor/CMP business for the rest of the year, which Nvidia is building from scratch. Soaring cryptocurrency prices in the first quarter have led to a surge in demand for CMPs, a business that is set to contribute up to $1.5B in revenues in FY 2022 (my current estimates are for ‘low-case’ CMP revenues of $1.0B and ‘high-case’ revenues of $1.5B). CMP revenues are included in Nvidia’s “OEM &amp; Other” revenues and based on firm guidance are projected to be $400M in Q2’22.</p>\n<p>Revenues unrelated to gaming and data centers for Q2’22 - Professional Visualization, Auto, and OEM/Other - are likely going to exceed $1.0B and could reach up to $1.2B depending on how strong demand for CMPs was in Q2’22. Since reduced mining difficulty as a result of falling cryptocurrency prices has made mining more profitable, Nvidia should head into the second half of the year with some CMP revenue tailwinds providing support.</p>\n<p>What I am really looking forward to in Nvidia’s Q2 report are Nvidia’s margins. Gross margins - a key figure for semiconductor firms - have trended up strongly, in part because of Nvidia’s Mellanox acquisition which has made a positive contribution to segment performance. I believe Nvidia can grow its gross margins (non-GAAP) to 70% by the start of next year, largely because of continued momentum in the gaming business which gives Nvidia significant pricing power. Nvidia’s guidance for Q2’22 non-GAAP margins was 66.5 percent, plus or minus 50 basis points and actual margins will likely come in at the top of guidance.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/de5873a468c24b27b0d713a6ea87bb15\" tg-width=\"1269\" tg-height=\"484\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Nvidia)</span></p>\n<p><b>How I am playing Nvidia post-split</b></p>\n<p>First of all, I am buying the post-split dips (if there are any!). The price of a stock may run-up before a stock split and drop afterwards as traders take profits. This may or may not be the case here. Nvidia’s closing market price on Friday was $195, equivalent to a $780 pre-split price, and the pre-split high of $835 (equivalent to a post-split price of $209) is in striking distance... it only takes a 7% increase in Nvidia's price from here to make new highs.</p>\n<p>Second, I am taking a close look at Nvidia’s 50-day and 200-day moving averages to determine critical support levels. I am ready to buy every dip below a key support level as Nvidia’s upcoming earnings report could be enough of a catalyst to push Nvidia to new highs. The first support level is just below $179 (50-day moving average) which is also where the stock bottomed before the last reversal.

While stock splits don’t change a firm’s valuation, Nvidia may initiate a new upleg as earnings next month are likely going to be impressive. My stock price target for Nvidia, adjusted for the stock split, is $250. Nvidia also faces a couple of tests and you should watch out for these key levels before buying.\nNvidia’s stock split\nNvidia’s 4:1 stock split has made the stock look cheaper but the fundamentals or the valuation of the firm have not changed. If you bought 100 shares of Nvidia at $800 pre-split, you now own 400 shares with a cost base of $200… the total value of an investment position is unaffected by Nvidia’s stock split, in both cases it is $80,000.\nCompanies execute stock splits to make their shares look more affordable and increase liquidity in the market. Nvidia, post-split, has the same market value as before, $485B, only the number of shares outstanding has increased by the factor of four. While there is no evidence that stock splits produce higher returns post-split, the fact that the stock, at least on paper, looks more affordable could lead to increased buying of Nvidia. My stock price target before the split was $1,000 (Nvidia: A $1,000 Stock Price Is Not As Crazy As It Sounds), which calculates to an adjusted stock price target of $250 post-split (28% upside).\nWhat's in store for Nvidia next month?\nNvidia is set to open its books for the second quarter on August 18, 2021 and the semiconductor firm is likely going to report impressive revenue growth for Q2’22. Nvidia's total Q1'22 revenues got an 84% bump year-over-year and increased at a 13%-rate Q/Q. Nvidia’s gaming revenues increased at an average annual rate of 22% since FY 2017 while its data center revenues soared 86% annually over the same time period, predominantly because of Nvidia’s Mellanox acquisition in 2020 which considerably expanded Nvidia’s presence in the high performance and data center computing markets.\nNvidia gets the bulk of its revenues from gaming and data centers. Gaming center revenues increased 11% Q/Q to $2.76B in Q1’22 and revenues will likely have grown at a similar rate in Q2’22 due to strength in the gaming market and accelerating customer uptake of the GeForce RTX 30 Series GPU. The RTX 30 Series has been industry-defining by making \"ray tracing\" the new standard for game developers. Ray tracing is a graphics rendering method that allows for the realistic modeling of light effects in computer games. Strong sales in GeForce RTX 30 Series GPU sales could result in a 10-12% Q/Q revenue bump for Q2'22.\nData centers, which generate the second biggest pile of revenues for Nvidia, saw growth slowing down in Q1'22 and I am looking forward to hearing an update from Nvidia's management about the prospects for the data center business for the rest of the year. I expect Nvidia to report mid-single-digit revenue growth in data centers for Q2'22 and, hopefully, an update about the Arm acquisition.\n(Source:Nvidia)\nWhat will be interesting to see in next month’s earnings report is how the Chinese cryptocurrency crackdown is impacting Nvidia’s cryptocurrency mining processor/CMP business for the rest of the year, which Nvidia is building from scratch. Soaring cryptocurrency prices in the first quarter have led to a surge in demand for CMPs, a business that is set to contribute up to $1.5B in revenues in FY 2022 (my current estimates are for ‘low-case’ CMP revenues of $1.0B and ‘high-case’ revenues of $1.5B). CMP revenues are included in Nvidia’s “OEM & Other” revenues and based on firm guidance are projected to be $400M in Q2’22.\nRevenues unrelated to gaming and data centers for Q2’22 - Professional Visualization, Auto, and OEM/Other - are likely going to exceed $1.0B and could reach up to $1.2B depending on how strong demand for CMPs was in Q2’22. Since reduced mining difficulty as a result of falling cryptocurrency prices has made mining more profitable, Nvidia should head into the second half of the year with some CMP revenue tailwinds providing support.\nWhat I am really looking forward to in Nvidia’s Q2 report are Nvidia’s margins. Gross margins - a key figure for semiconductor firms - have trended up strongly, in part because of Nvidia’s Mellanox acquisition which has made a positive contribution to segment performance. I believe Nvidia can grow its gross margins (non-GAAP) to 70% by the start of next year, largely because of continued momentum in the gaming business which gives Nvidia significant pricing power. Nvidia’s guidance for Q2’22 non-GAAP margins was 66.5 percent, plus or minus 50 basis points and actual margins will likely come in at the top of guidance.\n(Source: Nvidia)\nHow I am playing Nvidia post-split\nFirst of all, I am buying the post-split dips (if there are any!). The price of a stock may run-up before a stock split and drop afterwards as traders take profits. This may or may not be the case here. Nvidia’s closing market price on Friday was $195, equivalent to a $780 pre-split price, and the pre-split high of $835 (equivalent to a post-split price of $209) is in striking distance... it only takes a 7% increase in Nvidia's price from here to make new highs.\nSecond, I am taking a close look at Nvidia’s 50-day and 200-day moving averages to determine critical support levels. I am ready to buy every dip below a key support level as Nvidia’s upcoming earnings report could be enough of a catalyst to push Nvidia to new highs. The first support level is just below $179 (50-day moving average) which is also where the stock bottomed before the last reversal. If Nvidia's stock dips below $180 before earnings, I am ready to buy just at this level. If the 50-day moving average breaks, the next key support level is $147 (200-day moving average), a level I don't believe Nvidia's stock will fall down to. But if that's the case, then Nvidia would be considered a 'Strong Buy' just below $147.\nData by YCharts\nNvidia is not cheap... and that’s for a reason. Estimates call for 50% Y/Y revenues growth this year and Nvidia might even see an acceleration in its top line growth next year. Nvidia trades at a P-E ratio of 45 which may be considered low given the revenue growth Nvidia offers...\nData by YCharts\nOther considerations/risks\nThe market tends to reward good performance and because of a 5-year stretch of impressive business results, Nvidia trades at a high earnings multiplier factor. Nvidia’s outperformance relative to the S&P 500 can continue under the condition that revenue growth doesn’t slow.\n(Source: Tradingview)\nHigh valuations for growth stocks are normal, but they also come with some risks.

This means they usually provide consistent dividends and stable earnings regardless of the performance ofstock markets</p>\n<p>When there’s an economic downturn, investors often look to shore up their investments by rushing to what they perceive as safe haven stocks – defensive stocks are perceived this way as their value usually falls less than their value orgrowth</p>\n<p><b>Examples of defensive stocks</b></p>\n<p>Defence stocks – the shares of companies that manufacture military weapons, ammunition, and fighter jets – are an excellent example of defensive stocks because they’re at the cutting edge of many sciences and have a ready-made customer base.</p>\n<p>Many other sectors are also considered defensive, for example:</p>\n<p><b>Utilities</b></p>\n<p>Water, electric, gas and broadband supply utilities are examples of defensive stocks because we all still need them during all economic cycles.</p>\n<p>Utility firms can benefit from a slower economic environment because interest rates tend to be lowered by central banks to guard against the worst effects of a recession; therefore, consumers can still afford to heat their homes and buy petrol at the pump.</p>\n<p><b>Consumer staples</b></p>\n<p>Firms that produce or sell consumer staples, which people buy out of necessity, are generally thought of as defensive whatever the economic condition. Supermarkets are a good example.</p>\n<p>They sell food, drinks, tobacco, and household items. The supermarkets and the companies that fill their shelves generate steady cash flow and more predictable earnings during strong and weak economies. As a result, such stocks often outperformcyclical stocks</p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HCSG\">Healthcare</a> stocks</b></p>\n<p>Pharmaceutical firms and medical device makers</p>\n<p>But as with any sector, some healthcare stocks are as risky as dot coms. For example, in 2020-2021 when just about any listed pharma firm claimed to be making a CV-19 drug breakthrough, it caused a huge and unsustainable surge in prices - known as abubble</p>\n<p><b>Why invest in or trade defensive stocks?</b></p>\n<p>You’d invest in or trade defensive stocks if you’re looking to protect your portfolio when the economy is weak or the stock market is experiencing high volatility.</p>\n<p>Plus, defensive stocks are often well-established companies with a long history of stock market earnings and dividends, so they’re often of interest to dividend investors, or to anyone looking to find long-term gains with lower risk than other stocks.</p>\n<p>Defence stocks also provide a means of diversifying a portfolio. For example, rather than going all-in on tech stocks that are more susceptible to price fluctuations, you can spread your risk across both cyclical and defensive stocks.</p>\n<p><b>How to find good defensive stocks</b></p>\n<p>The main way of finding a defensive stock is looking at its beta – the measure of a stock’s volatility compared to the wider market. Typically, defensive stocks will have a lower beta, as they’re less affected by price swings.</p>\n<p>It’s best to create a set of perameters for the stocks you’re interested in, otherwise you’ll end up combing through the entire stock market to establish which defensive stocks to invest in. For example, you might narrow your search to a particular country, sector or index.</p>\n<p>You can also identify defensive stocks by looking for companies that have consistently paid out dividends over the years, including during recessions.</p>\n<p><b>Defensive stock advantages</b></p>\n<p>There are a number of advantages to investing in defensive stocks; these include:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Creating a starting point if you’re new to the market</b>– defensive stocks can be a terrific investment and trading starting point for inexperienced investors and traders as they should, in theory, be less volatile, rise and fall in tighter ranges, and be more predictable than growth stocks</li>\n <li><b>Reducing the impact of volatility on your portfolio</b>– during recessions, investors use defensive stocks as a mechanism to protect against losses by generating dividend yields and returns when such value isn’t being created in other sectors. In this sense, defensive stocks canhedgethe losses you might experience in other parts of your portfolio</li>\n <li><b>Providing a more consistent revenue stream</b>– defensive stocks can generate income over and above any other share price increases, and they often deliver the best dividends even in bearish markets</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Best defensive stocks</b></p>\n<p>Let’s take a look at some of the most famous defensive stocks spanning consumer staples, utility firms, healthcare and defense stocks.</p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FDX\">FedEx</a> (FDX)</b></p>\n<p>The delivery sector experienced considerable success during the pandemic because consumers were buying more online. Delivery services became essential, and may even become the ‘new normal’ as demands shift.</p>\n<p>FedEx in particular saw an increase in investment throughout 2020 and 2021.

Discover what defensive stocks are and how to use them.\nWhat are defensive stocks?\nDefensive stocks are theshares of companiesthat have continual demand for their products, so they tend to be more stable during most business cycles than ‘risk on’ or ‘growth’ stocks. This means they usually provide consistent dividends and stable earnings regardless of the performance ofstock markets\nWhen there’s an economic downturn, investors often look to shore up their investments by rushing to what they perceive as safe haven stocks – defensive stocks are perceived this way as their value usually falls less than their value orgrowth\nExamples of defensive stocks\nDefence stocks – the shares of companies that manufacture military weapons, ammunition, and fighter jets – are an excellent example of defensive stocks because they’re at the cutting edge of many sciences and have a ready-made customer base.\nMany other sectors are also considered defensive, for example:\nUtilities\nWater, electric, gas and broadband supply utilities are examples of defensive stocks because we all still need them during all economic cycles.\nUtility firms can benefit from a slower economic environment because interest rates tend to be lowered by central banks to guard against the worst effects of a recession; therefore, consumers can still afford to heat their homes and buy petrol at the pump.\nConsumer staples\nFirms that produce or sell consumer staples, which people buy out of necessity, are generally thought of as defensive whatever the economic condition. Supermarkets are a good example.\nThey sell food, drinks, tobacco, and household items. The supermarkets and the companies that fill their shelves generate steady cash flow and more predictable earnings during strong and weak economies. As a result, such stocks often outperformcyclical stocks\nHealthcare stocks\nPharmaceutical firms and medical device makers\nBut as with any sector, some healthcare stocks are as risky as dot coms. For example, in 2020-2021 when just about any listed pharma firm claimed to be making a CV-19 drug breakthrough, it caused a huge and unsustainable surge in prices - known as abubble\nWhy invest in or trade defensive stocks?\nYou’d invest in or trade defensive stocks if you’re looking to protect your portfolio when the economy is weak or the stock market is experiencing high volatility.\nPlus, defensive stocks are often well-established companies with a long history of stock market earnings and dividends, so they’re often of interest to dividend investors, or to anyone looking to find long-term gains with lower risk than other stocks.\nDefence stocks also provide a means of diversifying a portfolio. For example, rather than going all-in on tech stocks that are more susceptible to price fluctuations, you can spread your risk across both cyclical and defensive stocks.\nHow to find good defensive stocks\nThe main way of finding a defensive stock is looking at its beta – the measure of a stock’s volatility compared to the wider market. Typically, defensive stocks will have a lower beta, as they’re less affected by price swings.\nIt’s best to create a set of perameters for the stocks you’re interested in, otherwise you’ll end up combing through the entire stock market to establish which defensive stocks to invest in. For example, you might narrow your search to a particular country, sector or index.\nYou can also identify defensive stocks by looking for companies that have consistently paid out dividends over the years, including during recessions.\nDefensive stock advantages\nThere are a number of advantages to investing in defensive stocks; these include:\n\nCreating a starting point if you’re new to the market– defensive stocks can be a terrific investment and trading starting point for inexperienced investors and traders as they should, in theory, be less volatile, rise and fall in tighter ranges, and be more predictable than growth stocks\nReducing the impact of volatility on your portfolio– during recessions, investors use defensive stocks as a mechanism to protect against losses by generating dividend yields and returns when such value isn’t being created in other sectors. In this sense, defensive stocks canhedgethe losses you might experience in other parts of your portfolio\nProviding a more consistent revenue stream– defensive stocks can generate income over and above any other share price increases, and they often deliver the best dividends even in bearish markets\n\nBest defensive stocks\nLet’s take a look at some of the most famous defensive stocks spanning consumer staples, utility firms, healthcare and defense stocks.\nFedEx (FDX)\nThe delivery sector experienced considerable success during the pandemic because consumers were buying more online. Delivery services became essential, and may even become the ‘new normal’ as demands shift.\nFedEx in particular saw an increase in investment throughout 2020 and 2021. The company provides secure foreign delivery services and business services and even has contracts with the US government. Government contracts are highly prized, as they provide a regular source of income during challenging times.\n\nPast year share price increase 113.3%\n5-year share price increase 88.56%\nDividend yield 0.86%\nP/E ratio 26.74\nEPS 11.46\n\nCoca-Cola (KO)\nCoca-Cola is one of the most popular defensive stocks due to its status as one of the world's most recognisable brands. Other than the flagship beverage we all know and love, it manufactures and distributes nearly 500 other products.\nThe pandemic hit Coca-Cola, and earnings slumped year on year. However, compared to other companies in the sectors, the business managed the situation well.\nDespite the slump in demand for its products in the first two quarters of 2020, the stock still rose by 14%, and the firm paid out a dividend of 3.04%, causing market participants to view it as a low-risk long-term investment.\n\nPast year share price increase 14.16%\n5-year share price increase 21.85%\nDividend yield 2.99%\nP/E ratio 33.70\nEPS 1.68\n\nCampbell’s Soup Co. (CPB)\nThe Campbell’s Soup Company doesn’t only make soup, it makes some of the world’s most popular consumer food products. Some of the other brands it owns include Prego, Swanson’s, and Snyder’s. Because they’re affordable, they sell well during harsh economic times. Tasty, cheap foods are always necessary, so if the brands remain popular, Campbell’s will likely always thrive.\nThe share price fell by 3.98% yearly, but an improved dividend pay-out of 3.03% partially countered this fall. Over the longer ten-year term, the stock has risen by 55%.\n\nPast year share price rise 2.66%\n5-year share price fall -21.1%\n10-year share price rise 55.10%\nDividend yield 2.98%\nP/E ratio 18.76\nEPS 2.67\n\nBAE Systems PLC\nBAE Systems is one of the world’s leading global defence, security and aerospace companies working at the cutting edge of technology, and operates in markets such as the US, UK, Saudi Arabia, and Australia.\nIt creates upwards of 100 new inventions annually for customers in more than 100 countries. In addition, BAE designs, develops, integrates and provides products in areas as diverse as life support and naval combat systems.\n\nPast year share price rise 3.30%\n5 – year share price rise 10.82%\nDividend yield 4.45%\nP/E ratio 13.2\nEPS 0.4\n\nLockheed Martin Corp.\nLockheed Martin is a global security and aerospace company employing more than 110,000 people worldwide. The firm is engaged in the research, design, manufacture, integration and sustainment of advanced technology systems, products and services.\nThe firm is ranked 60th on the 2019 Fortune 500 list of largest industrial corporations.\n\nPast year share price fall -4.68%\n5 – year share price rise 62.74%\nDividend yield 2.64%\nP/E ratio 15.9\nEPS 24.88\n\nMcdonald’s Corp\nMcDonald's is the most well-known fast-food chain worldwide, operating franchised restaurants in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Russia, Spain, and the UK. Despite economic hardship, the company sees consistent demand for its products – partly due to the almost cult-like admiration the brand has achieved, and its low prices.\nThe firm's favourite products include the Big Mac, Quarter Pounder with Cheese, Filet-O-Fish, Chicken McNuggets, and McDonald's Fries.\n\nPast year share price rise 17.51%\n5 - year share price rise 89.35%\nDividend yield 2.21%\nP/E ratio 33.94\nEPS 6.93\n\nProcter and Gamble\nThe Procter & Gamble Company manufactures and distributes branded consumer packaged goods to global consumers. The company sells products in more than 180 countries through mass merchandisers like department stores, distributors, beauty stores, e-commerce and pharmacies.\nIt offers products under the brands Head & Shoulders, Pantene, Mach3, Febreze, Bounty and Charmin.\nThese consumer staples are always in demand, so while the company experiences fluctuations in some of its brands, its portfolio is diversified enough that it usually remains stable.\n\nYearly share price rise 15.29%\n5 – year share price rise 63.97%\nDividend yield 2.56%\nP/E ratio 25.01\nEPS 5.63\n\nAs can be seen by examining the above company data and the most recent metrics, there is no one-size-fits-all method to evaluate defensive stocks.\nSome firms have paid out a combination of high dividends and enjoyed significant share price growth compared to their peers. Others have seen their share prices fall but continued to pay out dividends.\nUsing various measurements, such as the dividend yield, EPS and P/E ratio, together with the share price movements of the short, medium and long term, should enable you to make informed investment decisions.\nDefensive stocks key points\n\nDefensive stocks offer relative price stability, whatever the state of the economy\nDefensive shares also generate dividends as regular income, with the dividend payments countering the slow share growth returns\nBecause these companies are so well established and have robust business models, it’s unlikely that their share prices will drop dramatically.

By that gauge, the S&P 500 is trading at its richest valuation since the tech bubble of the late 1990s and early 2000s, according to Bank of America strategist Savita Subramanian.\n“We believe the discount is overdone, especially when the composition of the TSX is much better positioned to benefit from the global economic recovery, which we believe is intact,” she wrote.\n“We believe international stocks may be a better way to participate in the cyclical upswing, and Canada looks particularly attractive given its heavy exposure to cyclicals, commodities, and smaller caps, as well as its exposure to the U.S. economy that is leading the recovery,” Subramanian added.\nBank of America likes the TSX index for its greater exposure to energy and materials versus the S&P 500. Commodity sectors represent over 25% of the index compared to less than 6% of the S&P 500.\nThat bodes well for those with exposure to Canadian equities as the global recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic accelerates outside of the U.S. and fosters demand for the energy and agricultural commodities exported by Ottawa.\n“Follow the commodity cycle,” Subramanian advised her clients. “Despite a 46% surge in commodity prices [year over year], the TSX has underperformed the S&P 500 by more than 10 percentage points over the past 12 months.”\nThe implication is that, with Canada soon expected to see a sharp rise in its number of vaccinated residents, the gap between the TSX index and the S&P 500 could narrow.\nSome popular Canadian funds include theiShares MSCI Canada ETFand theBMO Low Volatility Canadian Equity ETF, up 21.8% and 15.2%, respectively, in 2021.\nDespite the overarching optimism on the country’s stocks, Subramanian noted that a slower-than-expected economic recovery in the U.S. or Canada would challenge her thesis.\nSo, too, could China’s recent announcement tomanage commodity inflationif Beijing continues to impose a cap on how much its traders are permitted to pay for various materials.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":433,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":168396930,"gmtCreate":1623949156720,"gmtModify":1703824525274,"author":{"id":"3581947268158712","authorId":"3581947268158712","name":"AccX","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91b8ed5a1ff8ca5a0ff1e655c6ed4c59","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581947268158712","idStr":"3581947268158712"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/168396930","repostId":"1108846547","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1108846547","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623943021,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1108846547?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-17 23:17","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Bankers Just Complicated El Salvador’s Bitcoin Plan","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1108846547","media":"investorplace","summary":"The price ofBitcoin(CCC:BTC-USD) slipped to below $39,000 on Thursday after the World Bank refused E","content":"<p>The price of<b>Bitcoin</b>(CCC:<b><u>BTC-USD</u></b>) slipped to below $39,000 on Thursday after the World Bank refused El Salvador’s request to help with the implementation of the cryptocurrency as a legal tender.

This means they usually provide consistent dividends and stable earnings regardless of the performance ofstock markets</p>\n<p>When there’s an economic downturn, investors often look to shore up their investments by rushing to what they perceive as safe haven stocks – defensive stocks are perceived this way as their value usually falls less than their value orgrowth</p>\n<p><b>Examples of defensive stocks</b></p>\n<p>Defence stocks – the shares of companies that manufacture military weapons, ammunition, and fighter jets – are an excellent example of defensive stocks because they’re at the cutting edge of many sciences and have a ready-made customer base.</p>\n<p>Many other sectors are also considered defensive, for example:</p>\n<p><b>Utilities</b></p>\n<p>Water, electric, gas and broadband supply utilities are examples of defensive stocks because we all still need them during all economic cycles.</p>\n<p>Utility firms can benefit from a slower economic environment because interest rates tend to be lowered by central banks to guard against the worst effects of a recession; therefore, consumers can still afford to heat their homes and buy petrol at the pump.</p>\n<p><b>Consumer staples</b></p>\n<p>Firms that produce or sell consumer staples, which people buy out of necessity, are generally thought of as defensive whatever the economic condition. Supermarkets are a good example.</p>\n<p>They sell food, drinks, tobacco, and household items. The supermarkets and the companies that fill their shelves generate steady cash flow and more predictable earnings during strong and weak economies. As a result, such stocks often outperformcyclical stocks</p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HCSG\">Healthcare</a> stocks</b></p>\n<p>Pharmaceutical firms and medical device makers</p>\n<p>But as with any sector, some healthcare stocks are as risky as dot coms. For example, in 2020-2021 when just about any listed pharma firm claimed to be making a CV-19 drug breakthrough, it caused a huge and unsustainable surge in prices - known as abubble</p>\n<p><b>Why invest in or trade defensive stocks?</b></p>\n<p>You’d invest in or trade defensive stocks if you’re looking to protect your portfolio when the economy is weak or the stock market is experiencing high volatility.</p>\n<p>Plus, defensive stocks are often well-established companies with a long history of stock market earnings and dividends, so they’re often of interest to dividend investors, or to anyone looking to find long-term gains with lower risk than other stocks.</p>\n<p>Defence stocks also provide a means of diversifying a portfolio. For example, rather than going all-in on tech stocks that are more susceptible to price fluctuations, you can spread your risk across both cyclical and defensive stocks.</p>\n<p><b>How to find good defensive stocks</b></p>\n<p>The main way of finding a defensive stock is looking at its beta – the measure of a stock’s volatility compared to the wider market. Typically, defensive stocks will have a lower beta, as they’re less affected by price swings.</p>\n<p>It’s best to create a set of perameters for the stocks you’re interested in, otherwise you’ll end up combing through the entire stock market to establish which defensive stocks to invest in. For example, you might narrow your search to a particular country, sector or index.</p>\n<p>You can also identify defensive stocks by looking for companies that have consistently paid out dividends over the years, including during recessions.</p>\n<p><b>Defensive stock advantages</b></p>\n<p>There are a number of advantages to investing in defensive stocks; these include:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Creating a starting point if you’re new to the market</b>– defensive stocks can be a terrific investment and trading starting point for inexperienced investors and traders as they should, in theory, be less volatile, rise and fall in tighter ranges, and be more predictable than growth stocks</li>\n <li><b>Reducing the impact of volatility on your portfolio</b>– during recessions, investors use defensive stocks as a mechanism to protect against losses by generating dividend yields and returns when such value isn’t being created in other sectors. In this sense, defensive stocks canhedgethe losses you might experience in other parts of your portfolio</li>\n <li><b>Providing a more consistent revenue stream</b>– defensive stocks can generate income over and above any other share price increases, and they often deliver the best dividends even in bearish markets</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Best defensive stocks</b></p>\n<p>Let’s take a look at some of the most famous defensive stocks spanning consumer staples, utility firms, healthcare and defense stocks.</p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FDX\">FedEx</a> (FDX)</b></p>\n<p>The delivery sector experienced considerable success during the pandemic because consumers were buying more online.

This means they usually provide consistent dividends and stable earnings regardless of the performance ofstock markets\nWhen there’s an economic downturn, investors often look to shore up their investments by rushing to what they perceive as safe haven stocks – defensive stocks are perceived this way as their value usually falls less than their value orgrowth\nExamples of defensive stocks\nDefence stocks – the shares of companies that manufacture military weapons, ammunition, and fighter jets – are an excellent example of defensive stocks because they’re at the cutting edge of many sciences and have a ready-made customer base.\nMany other sectors are also considered defensive, for example:\nUtilities\nWater, electric, gas and broadband supply utilities are examples of defensive stocks because we all still need them during all economic cycles.\nUtility firms can benefit from a slower economic environment because interest rates tend to be lowered by central banks to guard against the worst effects of a recession; therefore, consumers can still afford to heat their homes and buy petrol at the pump.\nConsumer staples\nFirms that produce or sell consumer staples, which people buy out of necessity, are generally thought of as defensive whatever the economic condition. Supermarkets are a good example.\nThey sell food, drinks, tobacco, and household items. The supermarkets and the companies that fill their shelves generate steady cash flow and more predictable earnings during strong and weak economies. As a result, such stocks often outperformcyclical stocks\nHealthcare stocks\nPharmaceutical firms and medical device makers\nBut as with any sector, some healthcare stocks are as risky as dot coms. For example, in 2020-2021 when just about any listed pharma firm claimed to be making a CV-19 drug breakthrough, it caused a huge and unsustainable surge in prices - known as abubble\nWhy invest in or trade defensive stocks?\nYou’d invest in or trade defensive stocks if you’re looking to protect your portfolio when the economy is weak or the stock market is experiencing high volatility.\nPlus, defensive stocks are often well-established companies with a long history of stock market earnings and dividends, so they’re often of interest to dividend investors, or to anyone looking to find long-term gains with lower risk than other stocks.\nDefence stocks also provide a means of diversifying a portfolio. For example, rather than going all-in on tech stocks that are more susceptible to price fluctuations, you can spread your risk across both cyclical and defensive stocks.\nHow to find good defensive stocks\nThe main way of finding a defensive stock is looking at its beta – the measure of a stock’s volatility compared to the wider market. Typically, defensive stocks will have a lower beta, as they’re less affected by price swings.\nIt’s best to create a set of perameters for the stocks you’re interested in, otherwise you’ll end up combing through the entire stock market to establish which defensive stocks to invest in. For example, you might narrow your search to a particular country, sector or index.\nYou can also identify defensive stocks by looking for companies that have consistently paid out dividends over the years, including during recessions.\nDefensive stock advantages\nThere are a number of advantages to investing in defensive stocks; these include:\n\nCreating a starting point if you’re new to the market– defensive stocks can be a terrific investment and trading starting point for inexperienced investors and traders as they should, in theory, be less volatile, rise and fall in tighter ranges, and be more predictable than growth stocks\nReducing the impact of volatility on your portfolio– during recessions, investors use defensive stocks as a mechanism to protect against losses by generating dividend yields and returns when such value isn’t being created in other sectors. In this sense, defensive stocks canhedgethe losses you might experience in other parts of your portfolio\nProviding a more consistent revenue stream– defensive stocks can generate income over and above any other share price increases, and they often deliver the best dividends even in bearish markets\n\nBest defensive stocks\nLet’s take a look at some of the most famous defensive stocks spanning consumer staples, utility firms, healthcare and defense stocks.\nFedEx (FDX)\nThe delivery sector experienced considerable success during the pandemic because consumers were buying more online. Delivery services became essential, and may even become the ‘new normal’ as demands shift.\nFedEx in particular saw an increase in investment throughout 2020 and 2021. The company provides secure foreign delivery services and business services and even has contracts with the US government. Government contracts are highly prized, as they provide a regular source of income during challenging times.\n\nPast year share price increase 113.3%\n5-year share price increase 88.56%\nDividend yield 0.86%\nP/E ratio 26.74\nEPS 11.46\n\nCoca-Cola (KO)\nCoca-Cola is one of the most popular defensive stocks due to its status as one of the world's most recognisable brands. Other than the flagship beverage we all know and love, it manufactures and distributes nearly 500 other products.\nThe pandemic hit Coca-Cola, and earnings slumped year on year. However, compared to other companies in the sectors, the business managed the situation well.\nDespite the slump in demand for its products in the first two quarters of 2020, the stock still rose by 14%, and the firm paid out a dividend of 3.04%, causing market participants to view it as a low-risk long-term investment.\n\nPast year share price increase 14.16%\n5-year share price increase 21.85%\nDividend yield 2.99%\nP/E ratio 33.70\nEPS 1.68\n\nCampbell’s Soup Co. (CPB)\nThe Campbell’s Soup Company doesn’t only make soup, it makes some of the world’s most popular consumer food products. Some of the other brands it owns include Prego, Swanson’s, and Snyder’s. Because they’re affordable, they sell well during harsh economic times. Tasty, cheap foods are always necessary, so if the brands remain popular, Campbell’s will likely always thrive.\nThe share price fell by 3.98% yearly, but an improved dividend pay-out of 3.03% partially countered this fall. Over the longer ten-year term, the stock has risen by 55%.\n\nPast year share price rise 2.66%\n5-year share price fall -21.1%\n10-year share price rise 55.10%\nDividend yield 2.98%\nP/E ratio 18.76\nEPS 2.67\n\nBAE Systems PLC\nBAE Systems is one of the world’s leading global defence, security and aerospace companies working at the cutting edge of technology, and operates in markets such as the US, UK, Saudi Arabia, and Australia.\nIt creates upwards of 100 new inventions annually for customers in more than 100 countries. In addition, BAE designs, develops, integrates and provides products in areas as diverse as life support and naval combat systems.\n\nPast year share price rise 3.30%\n5 – year share price rise 10.82%\nDividend yield 4.45%\nP/E ratio 13.2\nEPS 0.4\n\nLockheed Martin Corp.\nLockheed Martin is a global security and aerospace company employing more than 110,000 people worldwide. The firm is engaged in the research, design, manufacture, integration and sustainment of advanced technology systems, products and services.\nThe firm is ranked 60th on the 2019 Fortune 500 list of largest industrial corporations.\n\nPast year share price fall -4.68%\n5 – year share price rise 62.74%\nDividend yield 2.64%\nP/E ratio 15.9\nEPS 24.88\n\nMcdonald’s Corp\nMcDonald's is the most well-known fast-food chain worldwide, operating franchised restaurants in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Russia, Spain, and the UK. Despite economic hardship, the company sees consistent demand for its products – partly due to the almost cult-like admiration the brand has achieved, and its low prices.\nThe firm's favourite products include the Big Mac, Quarter Pounder with Cheese, Filet-O-Fish, Chicken McNuggets, and McDonald's Fries.\n\nPast year share price rise 17.51%\n5 - year share price rise 89.35%\nDividend yield 2.21%\nP/E ratio 33.94\nEPS 6.93\n\nProcter and Gamble\nThe Procter & Gamble Company manufactures and distributes branded consumer packaged goods to global consumers. The company sells products in more than 180 countries through mass merchandisers like department stores, distributors, beauty stores, e-commerce and pharmacies.\nIt offers products under the brands Head & Shoulders, Pantene, Mach3, Febreze, Bounty and Charmin.\nThese consumer staples are always in demand, so while the company experiences fluctuations in some of its brands, its portfolio is diversified enough that it usually remains stable.\n\nYearly share price rise 15.29%\n5 – year share price rise 63.97%\nDividend yield 2.56%\nP/E ratio 25.01\nEPS 5.63\n\nAs can be seen by examining the above company data and the most recent metrics, there is no one-size-fits-all method to evaluate defensive stocks.\nSome firms have paid out a combination of high dividends and enjoyed significant share price growth compared to their peers. Others have seen their share prices fall but continued to pay out dividends.\nUsing various measurements, such as the dividend yield, EPS and P/E ratio, together with the share price movements of the short, medium and long term, should enable you to make informed investment decisions.\nDefensive stocks key points\n\nDefensive stocks offer relative price stability, whatever the state of the economy\nDefensive shares also generate dividends as regular income, with the dividend payments countering the slow share growth returns\nBecause these companies are so well established and have robust business models, it’s unlikely that their share prices will drop dramatically. Instead, they typically demonstrate slow share price growth\nMany defensive stocks provide essential products or services, helping them remain financially stable through economic downturns\nExperts often refer to defensive stocks as non-cyclical stocks; they perform well regardless of the economy, while cyclical stocks typically do well only when the economy performs.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":527,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":800711889,"gmtCreate":1627318623541,"gmtModify":1703487595403,"author":{"id":"3581947268158712","authorId":"3581947268158712","name":"AccX","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91b8ed5a1ff8ca5a0ff1e655c6ed4c59","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581947268158712","authorIdStr":"3581947268158712"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/800711889","repostId":"1117559759","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":700,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":126028994,"gmtCreate":1624538520518,"gmtModify":1703839715581,"author":{"id":"3581947268158712","authorId":"3581947268158712","name":"AccX","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91b8ed5a1ff8ca5a0ff1e655c6ed4c59","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581947268158712","authorIdStr":"3581947268158712"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/126028994","repostId":"1195543409","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1195543409","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":1624534898,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1195543409?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-24 19:41","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Toplines Before US Market Open on Thursday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1195543409","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"(Update: June 24, 2021 at 08:31 a.m. ET)\n\nU.S. weekly jobless claims total 411,000, vs 380,000 estim","content":"<p><i><b>(Update: June 24, 2021 at 08:31 a.m. ET)</b></i></p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>U.S. weekly jobless claims total 411,000, vs 380,000 estimate.</b></li>\n <li>Futures jump to all time highs ahead of Fed Speaker, Econ Data frenzy.</li>\n <li>Stock volatility hits fresh pandemic low.</li>\n <li>Eli Lilly stock jumps, Biogen drops on Alzheimer's treatment approval.</li>\n <li>Biogen shares dropped over 5% in premarket trading.</li>\n <li>Eli Lilly, Accenture, Rite Aid &amp; more made the biggest moves in the premarket.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>(June 24)&nbsp;Initial claims for unemployment insurance remained elevated last week as employers struggled to fill a record amount of job openings.</p>\n<p><b>First-time filings totaled 411,000 for the week ended June 19, a slight decrease from the previous total of 418,000 and worse than the 380,000 Dow Jones estimate, the Labor Department reported Thursday.</b></p>\n<p>Stocks rose with U.S. futures Thursday as traders weighed the outlook for recovery and policy support ahead of a slew of economic reports.

By that gauge, the S&P 500 is trading at its richest valuation since the tech bubble of the late 1990s and early 2000s, according to Bank of America strategist Savita Subramanian.\n“We believe the discount is overdone, especially when the composition of the TSX is much better positioned to benefit from the global economic recovery, which we believe is intact,” she wrote.\n“We believe international stocks may be a better way to participate in the cyclical upswing, and Canada looks particularly attractive given its heavy exposure to cyclicals, commodities, and smaller caps, as well as its exposure to the U.S. economy that is leading the recovery,” Subramanian added.\nBank of America likes the TSX index for its greater exposure to energy and materials versus the S&P 500. Commodity sectors represent over 25% of the index compared to less than 6% of the S&P 500.\nThat bodes well for those with exposure to Canadian equities as the global recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic accelerates outside of the U.S. and fosters demand for the energy and agricultural commodities exported by Ottawa.\n“Follow the commodity cycle,” Subramanian advised her clients. “Despite a 46% surge in commodity prices [year over year], the TSX has underperformed the S&P 500 by more than 10 percentage points over the past 12 months.”\nThe implication is that, with Canada soon expected to see a sharp rise in its number of vaccinated residents, the gap between the TSX index and the S&P 500 could narrow.\nSome popular Canadian funds include theiShares MSCI Canada ETFand theBMO Low Volatility Canadian Equity ETF, up 21.8% and 15.2%, respectively, in 2021.\nDespite the overarching optimism on the country’s stocks, Subramanian noted that a slower-than-expected economic recovery in the U.S. or Canada would challenge her thesis.\nSo, too, could China’s recent announcement tomanage commodity inflationif Beijing continues to impose a cap on how much its traders are permitted to pay for various materials.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":433,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":168396930,"gmtCreate":1623949156720,"gmtModify":1703824525274,"author":{"id":"3581947268158712","authorId":"3581947268158712","name":"AccX","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91b8ed5a1ff8ca5a0ff1e655c6ed4c59","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581947268158712","authorIdStr":"3581947268158712"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/168396930","repostId":"1108846547","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1108846547","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623943021,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1108846547?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-17 23:17","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Bankers Just Complicated El Salvador’s Bitcoin Plan","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1108846547","media":"investorplace","summary":"The price ofBitcoin(CCC:BTC-USD) slipped to below $39,000 on Thursday after the World Bank refused E","content":"<p>The price of<b>Bitcoin</b>(CCC:<b><u>BTC-USD</u></b>) slipped to below $39,000 on Thursday after the World Bank refused El Salvador’s request to help with the implementation of the cryptocurrency as a legal tender.

With an extensive suite of high-end products addressing all major needs from consumer to cloud, AMD is growing at a fast clip, generating a healthy profit margin, and further investing in itself so it can continue gobbling up market share in the industry.</p>\n<p>Second-quarter 2021 earnings were proof of this. With a big upgrade in its full-year outlook and the global chip shortage expected to last into 2022, here are three reasons AMD's stock is still a buy.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F635455%2Fsemiconductor-research-microchips.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>1. Extra supply equated to a sales beat</h2>\n<p>AMD reported revenue of $3.85 billion in Q2, up 99% from a year ago and an acceleration from the 93% pace set in Q1. To be fair, the spring quarter was lapping the period during the first economic lockdowns in 2020 when sales were sparse. However, let's not take too much away from AMD. Semiconductor industry titan <b>Intel </b>was lapping a poor showing from a year ago too, but recently reported flat revenue in its Q2 2021.</p>\n<p>The $3.85 billion in sales actually beat CEO Dr. Lisa Su and the company's guidance provided a few months ago by $150 million. Su attributed part of the outperformance to AMD's ability to coax some extra supply from its chip fabrication partners during the last three-month period. More supply is expected to come online during the second half of 2021, but the global chip shortage will likely continue into 2022.</p>\n<p>Nevertheless, AMD's Q2 beat and further advance on the supply side led Su and the top team to raise its outlook for full-year 2021 sales growth.

With an extensive suite of high-end products addressing all major needs from consumer to cloud, AMD is growing at a fast clip, generating a healthy profit margin, and further investing in itself so it can continue gobbling up market share in the industry.\nSecond-quarter 2021 earnings were proof of this. With a big upgrade in its full-year outlook and the global chip shortage expected to last into 2022, here are three reasons AMD's stock is still a buy.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. Extra supply equated to a sales beat\nAMD reported revenue of $3.85 billion in Q2, up 99% from a year ago and an acceleration from the 93% pace set in Q1. To be fair, the spring quarter was lapping the period during the first economic lockdowns in 2020 when sales were sparse. However, let's not take too much away from AMD. Semiconductor industry titan Intel was lapping a poor showing from a year ago too, but recently reported flat revenue in its Q2 2021.\nThe $3.85 billion in sales actually beat CEO Dr. Lisa Su and the company's guidance provided a few months ago by $150 million. Su attributed part of the outperformance to AMD's ability to coax some extra supply from its chip fabrication partners during the last three-month period. More supply is expected to come online during the second half of 2021, but the global chip shortage will likely continue into 2022.\nNevertheless, AMD's Q2 beat and further advance on the supply side led Su and the top team to raise its outlook for full-year 2021 sales growth. Revenue is now expected to be up approximately 60% from 2020, compared to previous guidance for 50% growth.\n2. Years of market share gains could lie ahead\nThe former underdog now has an advanced lineup of chips -- on many fronts, more advanced than the flagging Intel -- and as a result, reported yet another quarter of growth across its entire product line.\nDuring Q2, AMD said half of the world's newest and fastest supercomputers were powered by its EPYC data center CPUs (central processing units). Alphabet's Google Cloud also announced big leaps in price-to-performance using EPYC CPUs versus peers, no doubt helping lead to the increased adoption of the chips in cloud computing and data centers. And on the consumer chip front, Tesla chose AMD hardware to power the infotainment system in the latest Model S and Model X.\nThese market share gains could continue for some time at AMD. The company's next-gen products utilizing 5-nanometer architecture (the smallest and highest-performing chips) are coming in 2022 -- well ahead of the product roadmap at rival Intel.\n3. AMD is now a highly profitable firm\nAs AMD's technology has improved and sales have gained, its profitability profile has also been significantly raised. In Q2 2021, operating profit margin was 22% -- helping it break from the below-industry average, single-digit percentage operating margin it was stuck in for years. Free cash flow generated in the quarter was $888 million.\nThe implications of this are significant. AMD can now comfortably invest in itself from cash it generates, and go shopping with the excess when an opportunity arises. Take Xilinx (NASDAQ:XLNX), for example. The acquisition of the leading field-programmable gate array (FPGA) company will close by the end of this year and open up yet another front on which AMD can attack Intel. Adding Xilinx to the mix will also further boost AMD's profit margin and research and development capabilities. This is a great match for the company and will position it for many more years of expansion.\nInvestor takeaway\nAMD's stock now trades for 46 times trailing-12-month free cash flow. Considering the growth it expects to generate on its own and the looming addition of Xilinx, shares look like a long-term value right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":708,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":173381271,"gmtCreate":1626617107293,"gmtModify":1703762360580,"author":{"id":"3581947268158712","authorId":"3581947268158712","name":"AccX","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91b8ed5a1ff8ca5a0ff1e655c6ed4c59","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581947268158712","authorIdStr":"3581947268158712"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yea","listText":"Yea","text":"Yea","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/173381271","repostId":"2152368129","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":244,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":118536527,"gmtCreate":1622737357469,"gmtModify":1704190249142,"author":{"id":"3581947268158712","authorId":"3581947268158712","name":"AccX","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91b8ed5a1ff8ca5a0ff1e655c6ed4c59","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581947268158712","authorIdStr":"3581947268158712"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hmm","listText":"Hmm","text":"Hmm","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/118536527","repostId":"2140247164","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2140247164","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1622730037,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2140247164?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-03 22:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is It Time to Buy the Dow Jones' 3 Worst Performing May Stocks?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2140247164","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These are the last three names you want to see weakness from right now.","content":"<p>Most of the time, one stock's single-digit percentage rise or fall in any given month isn't all that interesting.

The red flags waving here are simply pointing to weakness mostly stemming from profit taking, but don't signal the onset of a full-blown bear market.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":221,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":179509801,"gmtCreate":1626546998603,"gmtModify":1703761606276,"author":{"id":"3581947268158712","authorId":"3581947268158712","name":"AccX","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91b8ed5a1ff8ca5a0ff1e655c6ed4c59","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581947268158712","authorIdStr":"3581947268158712"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great","listText":"Great","text":"Great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/179509801","repostId":"2152689298","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2152689298","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1626513480,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2152689298?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-17 17:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"NVIDIA's ARM Acquisition Is Facing Regulatory Hurdles","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2152689298","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The timeline will likely be extended for some interesting reasons.","content":"<p>Acquisitions are hard, especially when they are big. The announcement of <b>NVIDIA</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:NVDA) buying <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARMH\">ARM Holdings</a> from <b>SoftBank </b>(OTC:SFTB.Y) is no exception. With these two global businesses getting together, regulators from around the world want their say.

It's still in process, $40 billion deal. That's not huge relative to NVIDIA's overall market cap, but $40 billion, it's still a big deal here, so watch for that as that develops. But overall, a lot of positive developments. This company continues to grow and expand. That's good to see.</p>\n<p><b>Brian Withers:</b> Toby, glad you brought up the ARM acquisition. It seems like this thing's dragging on. You think it would have been closed by now? What is [that] they have to do to close this thing or is it dead in the water?</p>\n<p><b>Toby Bordelon:</b> Well, that's a good question. I would not say it's dead in the water, but there are some regulatory headwinds that have emerged with this. Initially, when they announced this back in September, they were saying March 2022 is their target for closure. Because they knew it's going to take a while to get these approvals. That's still a little ways away, but there are some issues here.</p>\n<p>It has to get approval in the U.S., in the U.K., in the EU. Chinese regulators are saying they might look at this now. The Chinese problems are, that's a bit of a concern, because you've got the political fight between the U.S. and China over business and tech issues, that could come into play for this. There could be politics involved in this approval, not just straight-on-the-face business issues going on here. That's an issue.</p>\n<p>Qualcomm also is stepping in, trying to muck this up. They announced a couple of days ago like, if it doesn't work out, then we'll invest in ARM. That's fine. Like in the sports context, we call that tampering. In the business context, totally fine. I guess you can do that.</p>\n<p>There's a lot of play there. I don't think final consummation of the deal is certain at this point. I think March might be a little bit of wishful thinking. The deal allows them to extend the deadline to September of 2022. So if things are moving slowly, that's still a possibility. And the EU, they're big on their summer vacations in the EU, especially they didn't have a big <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> last year because of COVID, the EU is making noise about, well, I don't even know if we want to start looking to this until after August.

The median estimate in a Bloomberg survey of economists called for a 865,000 rate.\nShipping bottlenecks and higher input prices have held back homebuilding, contributing to skyrocketing prices for the limited supply of homes available. A silver lining of the report was data showing new-housing inventory continued to increase.\n\nThere were 330,000 new homes for sale in May, the most since July 2019. At the current sales pace, it would take 5.1 months to exhaust the supply of new homes, compared with 4.6 months in the prior month.\nThe median sales price rose to a record $374,400.\n\nThe number of homes sold in May and awaiting the start of construction -- a measure of backlogs -- was little changed from a month earlier at 276,000, Wednesday’s report showed. The total number of homes sold with construction underway eased to 305,000 in May.\nA separate report Tuesday showed thatexisting home salesfell for a fourth straight month in May, held back by lack of inventory and record-high prices.\nDigging Deeper\n\nSales across U.S. regions were mixed, with the Midwest seeing no change and the South posting a decline. Home sales in the Northeast showed a large increase.\nNew-home purchases account for about 10% of the market and are calculated when contracts are signed. They are considered a timelier barometer than purchases of previously-owned homes, which are calculated when contracts close.\nThe new-homes data are volatile; the report showed 90% confidence that the change in sales ranged from a 24.5% decline to a 12.7% increase.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":477,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
