Rivalries and mutual suspicion mounted over the years and came to a head when Ghosn openly contemplated a merger, contributing to his downfall.The former chairman and CEO, who has filed a suit against his former company for ousting him in 2018, warned of a “disguised takeover” of Nissan by Honda in an August interview with Automotive News.The merger talks come after the Financial Times said last month that Nissan was looking for an anchor investor to replace part of Renault’s equity holding and that it hadn’t ruled out having Honda buy some of its shares.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":596,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":382663168340304,"gmtCreate":1734458636265,"gmtModify":1734458639899,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great article, would you like to share it?","listText":"Great article, would you like to share it?","text":"Great article, would you like to share it?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/382663168340304","repostId":"1170732309","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":704,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":382611375915176,"gmtCreate":1734419205726,"gmtModify":1734419209335,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great article, would you like to share it?","listText":"Great article, would you like to share it?","text":"Great article, would you like to share it?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/382611375915176","repostId":"1181680400","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":521,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":382454845272456,"gmtCreate":1734350691725,"gmtModify":1734350693725,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great article, would you like to share it?","listText":"Great article, would you like to share it?","text":"Great article, would you like to share it?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/382454845272456","repostId":"2491338666","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2491338666","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1734329006,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2491338666?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2024-12-16 14:03","market":"sh","language":"en","title":"The Fed's Game Plan on Interest-Rate Cuts Keeps Shifting","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2491338666","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell had to reassure some skeptical colleagues that the central bank wouldn't inadvertently send signals of distress when he led them to start lowering borrowing costs at the end of the summer with a gutsy, larger-than-usual half-point reduction.Now, they are confronting another potential hinge point.

Those steps could reverse two developments that have underpinned officials' sanguine inflation forecasts: falling prices of goods and a slowdown in wage growth.\"If I were sitting on the committee right now as a voting member, I would dissent against a cut,\" said Eric Rosengren, who served as Boston Fed president from 2007 to 2021.They are also uneasy that euphoric conditions in the stock market and for speculative assets such as bitcoin could provide grist for spending that keeps inflation entrenched. Given recent economic activity, \"it's hard to think that the level of interest rates is restrictive at this point,\" said Fed governor Michelle Bowman in a speech this month.Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan warned against cutting too far on what she views as a mistaken belief that a more \"normal\" interest rate for the economy is much lower. She compared the situation to a ship captain whose depth finder might mistake mud for water.Another group of officials, including Powell, have suggested they share that concern but don't think the Fed is at risk of cutting too much -- yet -- given how high they lifted rates over the past two years.\"We're mindful of the risk that we go too far, too fast, but also of the risk that we don't go far enough,\" Powell said last month. \"It seems like we're right where we need to be.\"Labor markets remain in a delicate equilibrium. Hiring rates are low, but so are layoffs. The economy has added more than 140,000 jobs on average over the six months through November, a respectable figure. But the unemployment rate has drifted up to 4.2%, from 3.7% at the beginning of the year.The sectors of the economy that are most sensitive to high rates, such as housing, have been slow to benefit from recent cuts.Behind closed doorsA big part of Powell's job is to forge agreement among a sometimes-unwieldy committee of 18 other officials. That has been difficult at times because inflation has declined in fits and starts over the past year.Some hawkish officials who had been averse to signaling an end to rate hikes began to change their tune one year ago, after a string of friendlier inflation reports. In economic projections at the December 2023 meeting, Fed governor Christopher Waller penciled in six cuts of a quarter point for 2024 -- more than any of his colleagues. (Later, when inflation stalled in the spring, Waller suggested that the Fed could stand pat until the end of this year.)For months, Powell and his colleagues insisted they needed a credible entry point to start cutting. \"The first time you change direction, it takes on perhaps more importance than it should,\" said Faust. \"People take it as a signal of the all-clear being given.\"By Labor Day, Powell was growing more nervous of the risk that the central bank, humbled by getting inflation so wrong in 2021, would overcompensate by keeping rates too high as rate-sensitive sectors of the economy froze.The labor market began to send signs of a potentially sharper-than-expected slowdown, with the unemployment rate ticking up to 4.3% in data released in August. Inflation had resumed its earlier decline.Fed officials typically prefer to choreograph big moves without provoking surprise in markets. On Sept. 6, the last day before officials began to observe their traditional premeeting \"quiet period,\" a pair of speeches led investors to think a smaller quarter point was preferred.But behind closed doors and huddled with a smaller circle of advisers, Powell concluded they should start with the larger half-point cut. The idea took a page from former Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan, who often persuaded his colleagues by framing policy choices as managing different risks.In this case, the risk of regretting the bigger rate cut was deemed to be very low. They had waited so long to cut rates that, even if the economy zipped along, most officials thought they could simply slow down several further anticipated cuts. By contrast, making a smaller cut only to discover the labor market was slowing sharply would be a much more difficult problem to fix.A lone dissentPowell typically consults by phone with all 12 regional bank presidents and meets with the six other Washington-based governors on the Thursday and Friday before the coming week's meeting. Powell and his staff also circulate a series of briefing documents that lay out the arguments for three different policy choices.Some needed little convincing to start big. Others were uneasy. Past reductions of a half point coincided with more dramatic financial stress. Bowman, who had been warning of latent risks of more-stubborn inflation, knew when she saw those policy briefing materials that she wouldn't be able to support Powell's proposal. She ended up casting a dissenting vote -- the first since 2005 by a Fed governor.To avoid multiple dissents and win over colleagues who shared her reservations, Powell convinced them that he could sell the decision in subsequent public remarks as a recalibration made from a position of strength, and not the start of a panicky sprint to lower rates.\"There's nothing...that suggests the committee is in a rush to get this done,\" Powell said at a press conference after the meeting. Instead, he characterized the \"good, strong start\" to cutting rates \"as a sign of our commitment not to get behind.\"Revisions to government data a few weeks after the meeting showed income growth and personal savings rates had been stronger than initially reported. That removed sources of anxiety about a potential recession -- and suggested maybe the larger move hadn't been needed.Waller, who had initially favored a smaller cut but was persuaded to back the larger move, dismissed a question recently over whether he regretted the decision. He compared it to buying car insurance.\"You say, 'Why am I buying car insurance? Because I might have an accident,'\" he said at an event this month. \"The accident didn't happen. Do you say, 'Man, it was a stupid decision to buy car insurance?' No.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":557,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":382181998608784,"gmtCreate":1734350292020,"gmtModify":1734350295829,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great article, would you like to share it?","listText":"Great article, would you like to share it?","text":"Great article, would you like to share it?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/382181998608784","repostId":"1116250698","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1116250698","kind":"news","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":"1032215980","head_image":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/4567337cbdf294b657b1fa87c5488b48"},"pubTimestamp":1734347671,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1116250698?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2024-12-16 19:14","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Trump Transition Team Plans Sweeping Rollback of Biden EV, Emissions Policies","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1116250698","media":"Reuters","summary":"Dec 16 (Reuters) - Incoming U.S. President Donald Trump’s transition team is recommending sweeping changes to cut off support for electric vehicles and charging stations and to strengthen measures blo","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Dec 16 (Reuters) - Incoming U.S. President Donald Trump’s transition team is recommending sweeping changes to cut off support for electric vehicles and charging stations and to strengthen measures blocking cars, components and battery materials from China, according to a document seen by Reuters.</p><p>The recommendations, which have not been previously reported, come as the U.S. electric-vehicle transition stalls and China’s heavily subsidized EV industry continues to surge, in part because of its superior battery supply chain.

BiT Global claims that the delisting of wBTC caused massive financial losses and eroded consumer trust in wBTC. According to BiT Global’s lawyers, this decision by Coinbase represents an attempt to monopolize the wrapped Bitcoin market, in violation of the Sherman Act on anti-competitive practices.</p>\n<div>€20 bonus for registering on Bitvavo This link uses an affiliate program.\n</div>\n<h2>More than $1 billion in damages</h2>\n<p>The complaint seeks to obtain damages exceeding $1 billion and includes requests for injunctive measures to prevent further harm.

BiT Global Digital Limited, a Hong Kong-based company, has filed a lawsuit against Coinbase, claiming more than $1 billion in damages. This lawsuit follows Coinbase’s decision to delist Wrapped Bitcoin (wBTC) from its platforms, a decision which, according to BiT Global, aims to promote its own competing product, cbBTC.\nCrypto exchange: Coinbase sued for sabotage\nCoinbase announced the delisting of wBTC on November 19, 2024, citing unspecified failures to meet its crypto listing standards. However, BiT Global contests this justification, pointing out that Coinbase recently approved the listing of several memecoins, which calls into question the consistency of its listing criteria.\n\n\n\n\nAs a result, the complaint filed on December 13, 2024, accuses Coinbase of anti-competitive behavior and market sabotage. BiT Global claims that the delisting of wBTC caused massive financial losses and eroded consumer trust in wBTC. According to BiT Global’s lawyers, this decision by Coinbase represents an attempt to monopolize the wrapped Bitcoin market, in violation of the Sherman Act on anti-competitive practices.\n€20 bonus for registering on Bitvavo This link uses an affiliate program.\n\nMore than $1 billion in damages\nThe complaint seeks to obtain damages exceeding $1 billion and includes requests for injunctive measures to prevent further harm. Kevin Kneupper, the lawyer representing BiT Global, stated: “We believe this decision sets a terrible precedent for the entire cryptocurrency space. If a platform as large as Coinbase can delist a crypto just at the moment when it launches its own competing product (cbBTC), who is safe? And who will be next?”.\nCoinbase, for its part, maintains that its decision is based on a regular assessment of the assets listed on its crypto platform.\nThis case could have significant repercussions on the crypto market, particularly concerning listing practices and competition between exchanges. Investors will closely follow the progress of this trial to see how it might influence the future of regulation and competition in this ever-growing sector.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":454,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":284772558180656,"gmtCreate":1710530738271,"gmtModify":1710530743034,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good read and informative for right decision.","listText":"Good read and informative for right decision.","text":"Good read and informative for right decision.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/284772558180656","repostId":"1189493524","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":892,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":281449589641376,"gmtCreate":1709741790719,"gmtModify":1709741794382,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Right choice on the dip.","listText":"Right choice on the dip.","text":"Right choice on the dip.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/281449589641376","repostId":"2417421967","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1268,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":276827143610448,"gmtCreate":1708610903124,"gmtModify":1708610910326,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"interesting","listText":"interesting","text":"interesting","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/276827143610448","repostId":"1170209806","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":604,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":276826986717400,"gmtCreate":1708610882613,"gmtModify":1708610886534,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"","listText":"","text":"","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/276826986717400","repostId":"1170209806","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":510,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":201773363028096,"gmtCreate":1690297522018,"gmtModify":1690297525828,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Very informative&nbsp;","listText":"Very informative&nbsp;","text":"Very informative","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":11,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/201773363028096","repostId":"2354338651","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2354338651","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1690299084,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2354338651?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2023-07-25 23:31","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 AI Stocks to Sell Before the Competition Crushes Them","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2354338651","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"AI stocks are on fire.

Its Houndify platform aims to help brands generate voice assistants, speech recognition, text-to-speech tools and other related offerings.Given the excitement around generative AI, it’s not surprising that traders have gotten excited about SOUN stock, with average trading volume hitting nearly 15 million shares per day.Unfortunately, the hype may be well ahead of the actual product’s utility to customers at this point. SoundHound AI generated just $31 million in revenues last year, and analysts see that growing to $45 million this year. That’s a respectable growth rate but still adds up to a rather diminutive overall operation.SoundHound AI is running sizable losses, and analysts expect the company to continue losing money through at least 2025. And, despite the low share price, SoundHound AI is not cheap. With its large outstanding share count, the company actually has a market capitalization of almost $700 million. That’s simply a massive price tag for a small money-losing operation such as SoundHound AI.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":737,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":189778522685560,"gmtCreate":1687358168090,"gmtModify":1687358172060,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"good read","listText":"good read","text":"good read","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/189778522685560","repostId":"1173851308","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":546,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":189773947125888,"gmtCreate":1687357052832,"gmtModify":1687357056465,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"good read","listText":"good read","text":"good read","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/189773947125888","repostId":"1173851308","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":714,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":189764692639888,"gmtCreate":1687354794060,"gmtModify":1687354795655,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"good read","listText":"good read","text":"good read","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/189764692639888","repostId":"1167082525","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":709,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":189762751910152,"gmtCreate":1687354529770,"gmtModify":1687354533274,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"good read","listText":"good read","text":"good read","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/189762751910152","repostId":"1151610726","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":620,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":182852570075240,"gmtCreate":1685650818879,"gmtModify":1685650822641,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Very informative.","listText":"Very informative.","text":"Very informative.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/182852570075240","repostId":"182269390356600","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":182269390356600,"gmtCreate":1685526747296,"gmtModify":1685527639983,"author":{"id":"3527667700230874","authorId":"3527667700230874","name":"TigerTradingNotes","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/db3863887ac73edf5244d41303c9bcc8","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3527667700230874","authorIdStr":"3527667700230874"},"themes":[],"title":"A \"High-Profitability\" Trading Strategy - Stop-Loss and Take-Profit","htmlText":"On October 19, 1987, the Dow Jones Industrial Average plummeted from a high of 2,246.74 points to 1,738.74 points, experiencing a 508-point drop.

Not only that, but many tech companies that overhired or spent too much during the pandemic are also in the process of streamlining their operations, with a focus on efficiency and profitability.</p><p>That bodes well for these three innovators as we come out of this interest rate-raising cycle. But while the economic slowdown may persist for a while, these tech stocks could take off well before business picks back up, making these three stocks prime buys for the month of April.</p><h2>Amazon</h2><p>Perhaps the poster child for pandemic-era excesses, <strong>Amazon</strong> is now pivoting to efficiency in a big way, which should pay dividends for shareholders. With the stock still 46% below all-time highs, investors would be wise to pick up shares of this undisputed leader in both e-commerce and cloud computing this month.</p><p>When the pandemic was in full swing, Amazon decided to hire workers and expand its distribution and logistics platform as much as needed. Because a lot of these decisions on construction are made with a multiyear lag, that spending continued into early 2022, even as growth decelerated following the COVID boom in e-commerce sales.</p><p>But Amazon now seems deadly serious about pivoting to efficiency. After announcing 10,000 layoffs late last year, the company upped that figure to 18,000 layoffs in January, before adding another 9,000 layoffs on March 20. That&#39;s obviously not great for workers, but it&#39;s probably needed, as Amazon had added more than 800,000 workers between 2019 and 2021, more doubling its workforce.</p><p>There are also some hints that Amazon&#39;s efficiency drive, which began about a year ago, is already bearing fruit. One particular metric I look at is Amazon&#39;s growth in shipping costs versus the growth in paid units delivered, which Amazon discloses in its filings. During the pandemic, Amazon&#39;s units shipped skyrocketed, but shipping costs actually increased by an even greater amount every quarter through the first two quarters of 2022. However, beginning in the third quarter of 2022, shipping cost growth fell beneath paid units growth.</p><p>That bodes well for improving profitability in the core e-commerce segment in 2023. In addition, Amazon&#39;s percentage of sales from third-party sellers is steadily increasing, making up 59% of sales last quarter, and should also help profits as those sales tend to be higher-profit than sales Amazon makes from its own inventory. And Amazon&#39;s advertising services continue to roll along, achieving a very respectable 23% growth rate in constant currency last quarter, even as the larger advertising world is in a downturn.</p><p>There are also some concerns about a slowdown in Amazon Web Services (AWS), which is understandable given the current deceleration in that unit. However, AWS is helping a broad cross-section of its customers look to cut costs all at once, as interest rate increases affect a broader proportion of customers than the pandemic did.

Its client solutions group plunged 23% last quarter, but the unit, which sells PCs to both consumers and businesses, was still profitable, with segment operating income of $671 million.</p><p>While Dell might be clouded with the reputation of the difficult PC business, Dell now currently makes the majority of operating profits from its server segment. While that unit is also slowing, it did post 7% growth last quarter, but an even more encouraging 40% growth in operating income, as Dell is able to grow revenue without a meaningful increase in costs.</p><p>Dell actually has the leading market share in the server industry today. And while businesses may slow down their data center purchases in the near term, the emerging artificial intelligence wars should propel demand for high-performance servers over the long run and be a longer-term tailwind.</p><p>In addition, there could be a brewing turnaround in PCs. A recent note from Trendforce research projects an 11% quarter-over-quarter improvement in notebook shipments.

Not only that, but many tech companies that overhired or spent too much during the pandemic are also in the process of streamlining their operations, with a focus on efficiency and profitability.That bodes well for these three innovators as we come out of this interest rate-raising cycle. But while the economic slowdown may persist for a while, these tech stocks could take off well before business picks back up, making these three stocks prime buys for the month of April.AmazonPerhaps the poster child for pandemic-era excesses, Amazon is now pivoting to efficiency in a big way, which should pay dividends for shareholders. With the stock still 46% below all-time highs, investors would be wise to pick up shares of this undisputed leader in both e-commerce and cloud computing this month.When the pandemic was in full swing, Amazon decided to hire workers and expand its distribution and logistics platform as much as needed. Because a lot of these decisions on construction are made with a multiyear lag, that spending continued into early 2022, even as growth decelerated following the COVID boom in e-commerce sales.But Amazon now seems deadly serious about pivoting to efficiency. After announcing 10,000 layoffs late last year, the company upped that figure to 18,000 layoffs in January, before adding another 9,000 layoffs on March 20. That's obviously not great for workers, but it's probably needed, as Amazon had added more than 800,000 workers between 2019 and 2021, more doubling its workforce.There are also some hints that Amazon's efficiency drive, which began about a year ago, is already bearing fruit. One particular metric I look at is Amazon's growth in shipping costs versus the growth in paid units delivered, which Amazon discloses in its filings. During the pandemic, Amazon's units shipped skyrocketed, but shipping costs actually increased by an even greater amount every quarter through the first two quarters of 2022. However, beginning in the third quarter of 2022, shipping cost growth fell beneath paid units growth.That bodes well for improving profitability in the core e-commerce segment in 2023. In addition, Amazon's percentage of sales from third-party sellers is steadily increasing, making up 59% of sales last quarter, and should also help profits as those sales tend to be higher-profit than sales Amazon makes from its own inventory. And Amazon's advertising services continue to roll along, achieving a very respectable 23% growth rate in constant currency last quarter, even as the larger advertising world is in a downturn.There are also some concerns about a slowdown in Amazon Web Services (AWS), which is understandable given the current deceleration in that unit. However, AWS is helping a broad cross-section of its customers look to cut costs all at once, as interest rate increases affect a broader proportion of customers than the pandemic did. However, Amazon's long-term customer commitments grew 37.3% last year, well exceeding revenue growth of 20%, as revenue is recorded based on current usage. So with solid growth in long-term contracts, AWS appears to still have a lot of growth ahead.Moreover, the advent of generative artificial intelligence will only increase demand for computing power, which should benefit not just Amazon's rivals but also AWS, which provides access to supercomputing tools developers and start-ups need to make AI work. It's early stages in the AI wars, and one can be sure that AWS, with its cloud computing market share lead, won't be left on the sidelines.E-commerce names have been beaten-down, but some look cheap today.

Fool","summary":"A long bear market pushed these stocks down to what looks like bargain pricing.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>After living through a bear market for more than a year, opportunistic investors know some bargain stocks are out there just waiting to be found. Unfortunately, there isn&#39;t any surefire way to tell apart those destined to climb higher from those that will underperform.</p><p>For more than five decades, paying attention to the stocks Warren Buffett and his lieutenants buy for <strong>Berkshire Hathaway</strong>&#39;s (NYSE: BRK.A) (NYSE: BRK.B) equity portfolio has been a winning strategy for generating long-term gains. Shares of the holding company have risen at a rate of 19.6% annually since Buffett took the helm in 1965.</p><p>The recent implosion of Silicon Valley Bank (a subsidiary of <strong>SVB Financial</strong>) and <strong>Signature Bank</strong> caused banking stocks to fall across the board in March. Now, shares of <strong>Ally Financial</strong> and <strong>Citigroup</strong> are trading at bargain prices that are too good to ignore.</p><h2>Ally Financial</h2><p>Buffett famously loves banks because he knows people will always need a safe place to put their money. One bank that caught his eye last year was Ally Financial. This is an all-digital bank charging into the future, but it isn&#39;t an uncertain start-up. Ally began as the financial arm of <strong>General Motors</strong> more than a century ago.</p><p>At recent prices, the stock offers a 4.7% yield, and it could climb much higher. A lean, all-digital operating model allowed Ally Financial to raise its dividend payout by a whopping 131% over the past five years.</p><p>Despite rapidly cranking up its quarterly payout, Ally needed less than 15% of the free cash flow it generated last year to meet its commitment. That means there&#39;s plenty of room for new dividend raises even if earnings dip in response to an economic slowdown.</p><p>So far, Ally is weathering the storm. Fourth-quarter consumer auto originations fell about 16% year over year to $9.2 billion. Before reading too much into this decline, though, it&#39;s important to remember that stimulus checks caused auto sales to spike in 2021.</p><p>A recession could limit new loan originations, but each loan Ally originates now is earning significantly more. The estimated yield on new auto loans rose 2.6% year over year to 9.57% in the fourth quarter of 2022.</p><p>Last year, Ally Financial reported a healthy 14.4% return on equity. Despite impressive earnings power, it&#39;s trading for the low price of just 0.8 times its tangible book value. Buying the stock at this bargain valuation gives you a great chance to realize market-beating gains over the long run.</p><h2>Citigroup</h2><p>If you think Ally&#39;s trading at a low valuation for a bank stock, just wait until you hear about Citigroup. The stock sold off last month even though it&#39;s a &#34;too big to fail&#34; bank that&#39;s subject to strict capital requirements. Those capital requirements are designed to prevent the sort of bank runs that felled SVB Financial and Signature Bank.</p><p>Now you can buy shares of this systemically important bank for less than 0.6 times its tangible book value. Citigroup&#39;s trading at a low valuation because it&#39;s in the middle of a long transition following years of underperformance.

Unfortunately, there isn't any surefire way to tell apart those destined to climb higher from those that will underperform.For more than five decades, paying attention to the stocks Warren Buffett and his lieutenants buy for Berkshire Hathaway's (NYSE: BRK.A) (NYSE: BRK.B) equity portfolio has been a winning strategy for generating long-term gains. Shares of the holding company have risen at a rate of 19.6% annually since Buffett took the helm in 1965.The recent implosion of Silicon Valley Bank (a subsidiary of SVB Financial) and Signature Bank caused banking stocks to fall across the board in March. Now, shares of Ally Financial and Citigroup are trading at bargain prices that are too good to ignore.Ally FinancialBuffett famously loves banks because he knows people will always need a safe place to put their money. One bank that caught his eye last year was Ally Financial. This is an all-digital bank charging into the future, but it isn't an uncertain start-up. Ally began as the financial arm of General Motors more than a century ago.At recent prices, the stock offers a 4.7% yield, and it could climb much higher. A lean, all-digital operating model allowed Ally Financial to raise its dividend payout by a whopping 131% over the past five years.Despite rapidly cranking up its quarterly payout, Ally needed less than 15% of the free cash flow it generated last year to meet its commitment. That means there's plenty of room for new dividend raises even if earnings dip in response to an economic slowdown.So far, Ally is weathering the storm. Fourth-quarter consumer auto originations fell about 16% year over year to $9.2 billion. Before reading too much into this decline, though, it's important to remember that stimulus checks caused auto sales to spike in 2021.A recession could limit new loan originations, but each loan Ally originates now is earning significantly more. The estimated yield on new auto loans rose 2.6% year over year to 9.57% in the fourth quarter of 2022.Last year, Ally Financial reported a healthy 14.4% return on equity. Despite impressive earnings power, it's trading for the low price of just 0.8 times its tangible book value. Buying the stock at this bargain valuation gives you a great chance to realize market-beating gains over the long run.CitigroupIf you think Ally's trading at a low valuation for a bank stock, just wait until you hear about Citigroup. The stock sold off last month even though it's a \"too big to fail\" bank that's subject to strict capital requirements. Those capital requirements are designed to prevent the sort of bank runs that felled SVB Financial and Signature Bank.Now you can buy shares of this systemically important bank for less than 0.6 times its tangible book value. Citigroup's trading at a low valuation because it's in the middle of a long transition following years of underperformance. In a nutshell, it's selling off its international consumer banking operations to streamline operations and focus on profits.In the fourth quarter of 2022, Citigroup raised its tier 1 capital ratio to 13%, which is more than enough to satisfy regulators. Most systemically important banks distribute capital that exceeds regulatory requirements, but this bank is behaving extra-cautiously.Citigroup is holding off on buybacks and dividend raises while it's in the middle of uncertain asset sales. Investors want to keep a close eye on the potential sale of its consumer bank in Mexico, Banco Nacional de México (Citibanamex), in a deal valued between $6 billion and $8 billion.Completing the complicated Citibanamex sale could unleash a torrent of share buybacks. Adding some shares to your portfolio now looks like a reasonably safe way to generate market-beating returns over the long run.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":190,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9947162001,"gmtCreate":1682684869506,"gmtModify":1682684876864,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Very informative&nbsp;","listText":"Very informative&nbsp;","text":"Very informative","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":11,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9947162001","repostId":"2330193528","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":364,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9944666678,"gmtCreate":1681830341295,"gmtModify":1681830345337,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"very informative","listText":"very informative","text":"very informative","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":11,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9944666678","repostId":"2327869497","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":252,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9942315985,"gmtCreate":1681134294148,"gmtModify":1681134297863,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Very Informative&nbsp;","listText":"Very Informative&nbsp;","text":"Very Informative","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":10,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9942315985","repostId":"1144986920","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":192,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9948235138,"gmtCreate":1680710850625,"gmtModify":1680710853552,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Very informative&nbsp;","listText":"Very informative&nbsp;","text":"Very informative","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9948235138","repostId":"1152406086","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":235,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9981092373,"gmtCreate":1666335844292,"gmtModify":1676537743352,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Interesting.

The shares have fallen 87% since peaking two years ago. Like Deere, this stock fetches a reasonable earnings multiple. Zoom Video can be had for just 15 times last fiscal year&#39;s earnings, but -- and this is important -- unlike Deere, the bottom line is going the wrong way. Zoom Video is trading for less than 20 times forward earnings expectations.</p><p>Deceleration has been brutal at Zoom Video since the initial popularity burst when shelter-in-place mandates kicked in. It helped us learn, work, and socialize when getting together in person wasn&#39;t safe or feasible. Zoom Video will want to get its brake pads checked after how quickly the former speedster slammed on the brakes.

Profitability has been contracting, but companies keep investing in a healthy Zoom presence given a net dollar-based expansion rate above 120%.</p><p>Casual users might have forgotten their Zoom log-ins, but the high-tech telecom stock is still investing on platform enhancements. The company also has a cash-rich balance sheet, so it&#39;s already-low P/E ratio is even lower if we go by enterprise value instead of market capitalization.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Bargain Stocks Cathie Wood Loves</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 Bargain Stocks Cathie Wood Loves\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-21 15:16 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/10/20/3-bargain-stocks-cathie-wood-loves/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>When you hear the name Cathie Wood, you immediately gravitate to next-gen growth stocks with sky-high multiples and boom-or-bust prospects.

Zoom VideoLet's close out with the videoconferencing leader that has a bit of the bargain traits of the two stocks I mentioned earlier.Like Roku, Zoom Video is a bargain because it's trading well below its high-water mark. The shares have fallen 87% since peaking two years ago. Like Deere, this stock fetches a reasonable earnings multiple. Zoom Video can be had for just 15 times last fiscal year's earnings, but -- and this is important -- unlike Deere, the bottom line is going the wrong way. Zoom Video is trading for less than 20 times forward earnings expectations.Deceleration has been brutal at Zoom Video since the initial popularity burst when shelter-in-place mandates kicked in. It helped us learn, work, and socialize when getting together in person wasn't safe or feasible. Zoom Video will want to get its brake pads checked after how quickly the former speedster slammed on the brakes. The past six quarters of year-over-year revenue deceleration have been brutal.Q4 2021: 369%Q1 2022: 191%Q2 2022: 54%Q3 2022: 35%Q4 2022: 21%Q1 2023: 12%Q2 2023: 8%Guidance it issued last time out calls for the slowdown to continue, as it eyes a mere 5% increase in revenue for the current fiscal quarter. Profitability has been contracting, but companies keep investing in a healthy Zoom presence given a net dollar-based expansion rate above 120%.Casual users might have forgotten their Zoom log-ins, but the high-tech telecom stock is still investing on platform enhancements. The company also has a cash-rich balance sheet, so it's already-low P/E ratio is even lower if we go by enterprise value instead of market capitalization.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":465,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9917038067,"gmtCreate":1665380112959,"gmtModify":1676537596301,"author":{"id":"4121264452856212","authorId":"4121264452856212","name":"QQ Traders","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4121264452856212","authorIdStr":"4121264452856212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Interesting article.

This company was dubbed by many as “the Amazon (AMZN) of South Asia and soon to be all of Latin America” and take over MercadoLibre’s (MELI) territory, and maybe even Europe. It was a three-headed monster of revenue growth in e-commerce, gaming, and digital banking.</p><p>Now if you invested in Sea Limited earlier like three years ago, you probably are not too upset considering you are still up 93% on your return. Just one supporting example of getting in a stock at a reasonable price and holding in the long-term pays off. Sea Limited was the FinTwit darling of the investment community, everyone was talking about the massive revenue growth it was delivering. The stock reached a 52-week all-time high of $372 a share this year and since then has lost over 83% of its value! So, was Sea Limited just one of the biggest one hit wonders in the stock market, or is there more to the story?</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acb0bd5d2ab39c459620e2fe048d03fa\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p>My goals of this article are to share both the risks that are in place in buying more shares of Sea Limited or starting a position in the stock, but also why I believe there is a much higher chance of reward if you do so. I believe the next 12-18 months are going to be a defining moment for Sea Limited as a company, stock, as well as for their Founder &amp; CEO Forrest Li.</p><h2>Let’s Layout The Risks And Challenges Of Investing Now</h2><p>Sea Limited is a holding company with three businesses under it, Garena their digital gaming arm, Shopee their e-commerce business, and SeaMoney the finance arm. Sea Limited has always relied on the profitable part of their business, Garena, to fuel financing the growth in their other two businesses. In a business model like this, it puts concentration risk on the necessity of Garena&#39;s success to ensure the other parts of the business can continue to grow.</p><p>Sea Limited’s Garena started out distributing well known game titles on their social online gaming platform Garena+, in various countries across Southeast Asia and Taiwan, including the online football (soccer) game FIFA Online, the first-person shooter game Point Blank, and multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) games like League of Legends and Arena of Valor. However, Garena also started publishing games and released its own game Free Fire, which was an instant success. Free Fire has been the number one mobile game on the App Store and Google Play Store for several years now. It was the Free Fire franchise that has caused Garena to be a profitable business for Sea Limited. Free Fire&#39;s growth peaked with over 243 million players monthly in 2021, but has now declined by 23% to a little over 189 million players.</p><p>Now if you are like me, and are concerned that there is concentration risk to Sea Limited producing cash, because of its heavy reliance on Free Fire, you would be right. However, at the time of my first investments in Sea Limited I was able to look over this because I was still bullish on all the fast expansion Sea Limited was delivering with its other business units.</p><p>Sea Limited was using its mobile game to intrigue gamers in multiple regions to use its other online products like Shopee and SeaMoney. Sea Limited expanded from their Southeast Asia Market into Latin America and even European countries like France and Poland. Sea limited then started building new businesses like their food delivery services and an artificial intelligence business segment called SeaAI.</p><p>My point to all of this was Forrest Li and his company were scaling their business rapidly fast to capture as much market share as they could and turn profits later, when they felt it was the right time. Money was cheap in 2020, we had mobile gaming and e-commerce at all-time highs, due to the pandemic constraints. Sea Limited was so committed to achieving fast paced growth that it grew its employee count from under 34,000 to nearly 68,000 in the year of 2021.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6206a58507aa48753e603c3e59f59059\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"405\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>History of Employee Growth (Simply Wall St. App)</span></p><p>That was a very aggressive and large gamble that essentially backfired on the company, one could argue. After 2021 the world changed again, with the pandemic ending and the macroeconomics and geo-political landscape becoming what it is today. Since then gaming has decreased significantly, hence the huge decline in Garena Entertainment revenues, which also contributed to the over $1 billion in net losses this recent Q2.</p><p>Let’s sum up these challenges which have created possible risk in the business, these past few quarters.</p><ul><li>Free Fire has had its daily average player decrease by over 50% in one year to 18.3 million and monthly average players 23%.</li><li>Sea Limited is on average losing over $1 billion in cash per quarter since Q3 of 2021</li><li>Sea Limited over-hired by doubling its employee count in one year and over extended itself in trying to capture multiple global regions of marketshare.</li><li>The company was committed to growth at all cost and was not prepared for if conditions were not ideal or relatively difficult from a macroeconomics &amp; geopolitical perspective.</li><li>Sea Limited is not projected to be profitable next year in 2023, and right now the stock market is not in favor of money losing growth businesses.</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3886a4f8968ff39bdf53960fc0787e40\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"366\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Sea Limited Cash on Hand (Sea Limited Q2 Earnings Presentation)</span></p><h2>The Defining Moment</h2><p>Okay, so if you are like me and are down significantly from your cost basis on your investment of Sea Limited, you may ask yourself “Is it time to sell? And most importantly do I believe Forrest Li and leadership can turn this ship around?” because if you don’t believe in the capabilities of the leadership team, then you may want to sell your shares now, because in the short-term things still might be painful for a bit.</p><p>However, let me share why I believe this is the defining moment that we see Sea Limited transform into a stronger business with a more mature focus on steady and reliable growth. Since the Q2 earnings presentation, Sea Limited has cut giving guidance on its e-commerce business Shopee as the macroeconomic headwinds are too hard to predict and this allows them to focus all efforts not on rapid revenue growth but optimizing costs and efficiencies.</p><p>I was extremely impressed with CEO Forrest Li’s letter to employees this past September, around creating a self-sufficient and sustainable business that doesn’t require any more third party funding to operate. I believe Forrest is evolving as a CEO and leader and recognizes the growth at all cost approach was not necessarily a mistake, but an approach that can backfire if the world of macroeconomics has a 180-degree shift. This shift is exactly what happened for global economics considering all of the following events happening, the war of Ukraine and Russia, supply chain issues, inflation and the cost for energy, and the economic aftermath of the pandemic.</p><p>My point is Forrest appears to be humble and strategic enough to know when the company must change course and do it fast to adapt in the new world, we are living in. In my opinion, this is a sign of a great leader and indications of someone that you can trust with your investment. The decisions the leadership team at Sea Limited had to make were not easy ones but necessary to position themselves to where they would not need to get more external financial funding and had a path to free cash flow positive and eventually profitability.</p><p>Here are all the things Forrest and his leadership team have done to cut costs in the recent months:</p><ul><li>CEO Forrest Li and his leadership team decided they will not take any cash compensation until the company achieves self-sufficiency (assuming this means until Sea Limited is free-cash-flow positive.)</li><li>Sea Limited cut staff by 3% in Shopee Indonesia and its marketing and operation units</li><li>The e-commerce arm Shopee will also shut down local operations in Chile, Colombia, Mexico, but will maintain cross-border operations.</li><li>Shopee will be completely exiting Argentina which is where MercadoLibre is Headquartered</li><li>The Garena gaming unit will be laying off hundreds of staff, totaling 15% of their workforce in their Shanghai office and canceled several new games</li><li>Shopee has withdrawn job offers and shutdown operations in India and France</li><li>As of October 1st, Sea will cap business travel to economy class flight fares, with travel meal expenses of $30 daily</li><li>Hotel Stays for business trips capped at $150 a night, and travel for local taxi and ride sharing also applied</li></ul><p>So some would read this as a lot of negative news for Sea Limited, but I would argue that this is what is needed and this focused approach on profitability over growth and gaining self-sufficiency will be the inflection point for this company. So many companies try to run the Amazon business model with trying to grow at all cost, capture marketshare, and then choose when to pull the profitability levers in their business.</p><p>The reality is Amazon had a business model that was one in a million! To be able to continue and fund their aggressive pursuit for market share dominance and growth at all costs, they bet on creating cloud computing with AWS, which became the ultimate cash cow. This is why in some facets their business model should not be adopted or at least tried to be completely replicated.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fa72d9ee4941411d6f564c631da6fcf3\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>1yr Analyst Price Targets (Simply Wall St. App)</span></p><h2>Where To Find The Positive Future?</h2><p>In my opinion, this could be the defining moment for Forrest Li’s turnaround of Sea Limited and making it a long-term profitable company a lot faster than what was originally projected. Here are some of the positive catalysts we could see.</p><ul><li>Sea Limited will now focus on its primary markets of business such as Southeast Asia and Brazil now, and could see increased revenues.</li><li>Traditionally the 2H of e-commerce businesses are much higher, so we could possibly see that here.</li><li>SeaMoney is expected to be Cash flow positive by FY23.</li><li>Parts of Shopee in Taiwan and Southeast Asia are projected to be EBITA positive by FY23.</li><li>I expect to see less stock-based compensation and more control on all expenses.</li><li>Garena has new games that are in the pipeline of their game studio Phoenix Labs, who created the hit RPG franchise Dauntless.</li><li>Garena could see growth from their investment in VIC Game Studios, who have a hit franchise called Black Clover that is releasing its RPG mobile version later this year.</li></ul><h2>Summary</h2><p>There have been numerous changes within the business that in the long run, I believe will make them more resilient and control their own fate, opposed to needing to rely on external financing for growth. I also believe with less regions to focus on expansion and more focus on concentrated execution, Shopee will be a more efficient and optimized e-commerce business. This company is trading significantly much cheaper than it was a year ago and is cheaper than its peers.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6383d2ba72b71e9f23420bd62e9fe9b0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"379\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Forward Price to Sales Ratio (Simply Wall St.)</span></p><p>I believe Garena has shown us they know how to create a winning franchise mobile video game and monetize it effectively and will do so with other titles in the future. Remember, as long as Sea Limited gets a handle on their spending and business operations, they still have $7.8 billion in cash to put towards their operations. I expect to see goodness from the new games coming from VIC Game Studios and Phoenix Labs, especially if Phoenix Labs could release a mobile version of Dauntless, as it is only on consoles yet it still has 30 million players worldwide!</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1d286e5f6047200423e6ecbd1bad440b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Dauntless by Phoenix Labs (Phoenix Labs Website)</span></p><p>I will agree this past year has been a crushing blow in the markets, especially for Sea Limited, but I feel these next one to two years are going to show the adaptability and resilience of Forest Li and the company. I know an 83% drop from all time highs hurt like a punch in the gut, but Amazon also had a drop or two like this over its history. I am not saying Sea Limited is the next Amazon, but saying that Sea Limited is not a dead company by any means. I believe they can bounce back and get to those all-time highs for patient investors.</p><p>This company still has nearly 30% revenue growth year over year, $7.8 billion in cash, new revenue catalysts ahead of it, a new company focus on free-cash-flow positive operations, and secular tailwinds to ride with e-commerce, mobile gaming, and esports, and providing fintech solutions for the unbanked.</p><p><i>This article was written by Dominic Rinaldi for reference.

I believe the next 12-18 months are going to be a defining moment for Sea Limited as a company, stock, as well as for their Founder & CEO Forrest Li.Let’s Layout The Risks And Challenges Of Investing NowSea Limited is a holding company with three businesses under it, Garena their digital gaming arm, Shopee their e-commerce business, and SeaMoney the finance arm. Sea Limited has always relied on the profitable part of their business, Garena, to fuel financing the growth in their other two businesses. In a business model like this, it puts concentration risk on the necessity of Garena's success to ensure the other parts of the business can continue to grow.Sea Limited’s Garena started out distributing well known game titles on their social online gaming platform Garena+, in various countries across Southeast Asia and Taiwan, including the online football (soccer) game FIFA Online, the first-person shooter game Point Blank, and multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) games like League of Legends and Arena of Valor.

Since then gaming has decreased significantly, hence the huge decline in Garena Entertainment revenues, which also contributed to the over $1 billion in net losses this recent Q2.Let’s sum up these challenges which have created possible risk in the business, these past few quarters.Free Fire has had its daily average player decrease by over 50% in one year to 18.3 million and monthly average players 23%.Sea Limited is on average losing over $1 billion in cash per quarter since Q3 of 2021Sea Limited over-hired by doubling its employee count in one year and over extended itself in trying to capture multiple global regions of marketshare.The company was committed to growth at all cost and was not prepared for if conditions were not ideal or relatively difficult from a macroeconomics & geopolitical perspective.Sea Limited is not projected to be profitable next year in 2023, and right now the stock market is not in favor of money losing growth businesses.Sea Limited Cash on Hand (Sea Limited Q2 Earnings Presentation)The Defining MomentOkay, so if you are like me and are down significantly from your cost basis on your investment of Sea Limited, you may ask yourself “Is it time to sell?

The decisions the leadership team at Sea Limited had to make were not easy ones but necessary to position themselves to where they would not need to get more external financial funding and had a path to free cash flow positive and eventually profitability.Here are all the things Forrest and his leadership team have done to cut costs in the recent months:CEO Forrest Li and his leadership team decided they will not take any cash compensation until the company achieves self-sufficiency (assuming this means until Sea Limited is free-cash-flow positive.)Sea Limited cut staff by 3% in Shopee Indonesia and its marketing and operation unitsThe e-commerce arm Shopee will also shut down local operations in Chile, Colombia, Mexico, but will maintain cross-border operations.Shopee will be completely exiting Argentina which is where MercadoLibre is HeadquarteredThe Garena gaming unit will be laying off hundreds of staff, totaling 15% of their workforce in their Shanghai office and canceled several new gamesShopee has withdrawn job offers and shutdown operations in India and FranceAs of October 1st, Sea will cap business travel to economy class flight fares, with travel meal expenses of $30 dailyHotel Stays for business trips capped at $150 a night, and travel for local taxi and ride sharing also appliedSo some would read this as a lot of negative news for Sea Limited, but I would argue that this is what is needed and this focused approach on profitability over growth and gaining self-sufficiency will be the inflection point for this company. So many companies try to run the Amazon business model with trying to grow at all cost, capture marketshare, and then choose when to pull the profitability levers in their business.The reality is Amazon had a business model that was one in a million! To be able to continue and fund their aggressive pursuit for market share dominance and growth at all costs, they bet on creating cloud computing with AWS, which became the ultimate cash cow. This is why in some facets their business model should not be adopted or at least tried to be completely replicated.1yr Analyst Price Targets (Simply Wall St. App)Where To Find The Positive Future?In my opinion, this could be the defining moment for Forrest Li’s turnaround of Sea Limited and making it a long-term profitable company a lot faster than what was originally projected. Here are some of the positive catalysts we could see.Sea Limited will now focus on its primary markets of business such as Southeast Asia and Brazil now, and could see increased revenues.Traditionally the 2H of e-commerce businesses are much higher, so we could possibly see that here.SeaMoney is expected to be Cash flow positive by FY23.Parts of Shopee in Taiwan and Southeast Asia are projected to be EBITA positive by FY23.I expect to see less stock-based compensation and more control on all expenses.Garena has new games that are in the pipeline of their game studio Phoenix Labs, who created the hit RPG franchise Dauntless.Garena could see growth from their investment in VIC Game Studios, who have a hit franchise called Black Clover that is releasing its RPG mobile version later this year.SummaryThere have been numerous changes within the business that in the long run, I believe will make them more resilient and control their own fate, opposed to needing to rely on external financing for growth. I also believe with less regions to focus on expansion and more focus on concentrated execution, Shopee will be a more efficient and optimized e-commerce business. This company is trading significantly much cheaper than it was a year ago and is cheaper than its peers.Forward Price to Sales Ratio (Simply Wall St.)I believe Garena has shown us they know how to create a winning franchise mobile video game and monetize it effectively and will do so with other titles in the future. Remember, as long as Sea Limited gets a handle on their spending and business operations, they still have $7.8 billion in cash to put towards their operations. I expect to see goodness from the new games coming from VIC Game Studios and Phoenix Labs, especially if Phoenix Labs could release a mobile version of Dauntless, as it is only on consoles yet it still has 30 million players worldwide!Dauntless by Phoenix Labs (Phoenix Labs Website)I will agree this past year has been a crushing blow in the markets, especially for Sea Limited, but I feel these next one to two years are going to show the adaptability and resilience of Forest Li and the company. I know an 83% drop from all time highs hurt like a punch in the gut, but Amazon also had a drop or two like this over its history. I am not saying Sea Limited is the next Amazon, but saying that Sea Limited is not a dead company by any means. I believe they can bounce back and get to those all-time highs for patient investors.This company still has nearly 30% revenue growth year over year, $7.8 billion in cash, new revenue catalysts ahead of it, a new company focus on free-cash-flow positive operations, and secular tailwinds to ride with e-commerce, mobile gaming, and esports, and providing fintech solutions for the unbanked.This article was written by Dominic Rinaldi for reference.
