reports that hundreds of GameStop (GME) employees may soon be laid off.The company announced four rounds of layoffs last year.Shares of GameStop are in full focus following what appears to be another round of layoffs for the video-game retailer. According to Kentucky local news station WDRB, the company is in the process of closing down its Shepherdsville, Kentucky, distribution center, which will likely result in the loss of hundreds of jobs. The center first opened in 2016 and initially employed 400 associates. It operated as a place for packing and shipping physical video games and repairing electronic devices.The center will close its doors on June 30, with layoffs beginning on March 18. In an internal letter to employees dated Jan. 17, the company explained, “The entire facility will be closed and all employees at the facility will be impacted.”A commercial real estate listing with the address of the center confirms this. The center will be available for a new occupant beginning on July 1.What These GameStop Layoffs MeanLayoffs can be seen as both positive and negative for a company. The short-term effect is that it will result in fewer general and administrative costs due to the reduction of employees. This could help improve a company’s bottom-line income. The long-term effect is that fewer employees may stifle future growth and innovation.GameStop will still operate several other distribution centers following the closure of its Kentucky facility. For example, it has a warehouse in York, Pennsylvania, and also a distribution facility in Reno, Nevada.GameStop isn’t the only company in the video-game industry dealing with layoffs. Earlier this week, software development company Unity Software (NYSE:U) announced that it would be laying off 284 employees. Unity had over 8,000 employees before the reductions were announced.If confirmed, GameStop’s layoffs will be the fifth round since 2022. CEO Matt Furlong attributed the reductions to high inflation, low consumer sentiment and profitability goals.Meanwhile, analysts appear to be shaky on GameStop’s long-term prospects. The most recent price target update is attributed to Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter, who lowered his price target to $5.30 from $6 after reviewing the company’s third-quarter earnings. For the quarter, revenue tallied in at $1.19 billion, down 8% year-over-year and missing the analyst estimate for $1.35 billion.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"GME":0.9,"AXN":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2563,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9956441463,"gmtCreate":1674172278053,"gmtModify":1676538927406,"author":{"id":"3562288345465729","authorId":"3562288345465729","name":"TheRainmaker","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a2446b188392bb216f8e13ba56e44832","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562288345465729","idStr":"3562288345465729"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9956441463","repostId":"2304678984","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2700,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9956554805,"gmtCreate":1674085800307,"gmtModify":1676538922349,"author":{"id":"3562288345465729","authorId":"3562288345465729","name":"TheRainmaker","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a2446b188392bb216f8e13ba56e44832","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562288345465729","idStr":"3562288345465729"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9956554805","repostId":"1155564775","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2463,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9956677636,"gmtCreate":1674002618025,"gmtModify":1676538914460,"author":{"id":"3562288345465729","authorId":"3562288345465729","name":"TheRainmaker","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a2446b188392bb216f8e13ba56e44832","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562288345465729","idStr":"3562288345465729"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9956677636","repostId":"1111424321","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1111424321","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1674001166,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1111424321?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-01-18 08:19","market":"sh","language":"en","title":"China's BYD Takes Cautious Approach to U.S. in Global EV Push","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1111424321","media":"Reuters","summary":"Chinese electric vehicle (EV) giant BYD is embarking on a rapid global expansion to challenge Tesla ","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Chinese electric vehicle (EV) giant BYD is embarking on a rapid global expansion to challenge Tesla but for now it&#39;s stuck in the slow lane on its rival&#39;s home turf.</p><p>While BYD has not fully articulated its global ambitions in public, a concerted worldwide push has become the single most important strategic focus for China&#39;s biggest EV maker, four sources familiar with BYD management&#39;s thinking said.</p><p>Besides a drive into some European markets already underway, BYD spent much of last year conducting a study on how to set up a U.S. distribution network for its latest electric models, two of the sources said.</p><p>They described the study as advanced and serious, with specific recommendations from Detroit-based consultancy Urban Science on how many outlets in each state and city BYD would need, as well as formats for the brick-and-mortar stores.</p><p>The momentum was building towards an announcement at this year&#39;s global CES tech show in Las Vegas, where BYD was planning to showcase a new generation of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and plug-in hybrids for the U.S. market, a BYD official said.</p><p>The announcement never came.</p><p>Tense relations, anti-China sentiment in the United States and President Joe Biden&#39;s move to prioritise home-grown production of EVs and batteries all pushed BYD to hit the pause button, one of the sources said.</p><p>BYD&#39;s management has yet to give the project a final green light and an aggressive U.S. expansion remains unlikely for the foreseeable future, the source said.</p><p>&#34;BYD is taking a cautious approach to the U.S.,&#34; the person said. &#34;Think about all the political tensions and then think about the craziness of the whole world now.

Once a Wall Street darling, the stock's fall from grace has been dramatic. The stock is down 40% over the past year and was recently down more than 50% from its high, as shown below.Data by YChartsThe stock's return to 2018 levels is either a tremendous opportunity or a vast money pit.How did we get here?Amazon was a massive beneficiary of the pandemic - until it wasn't.The boom in online shopping and financial stimulus during the pandemic boosted sales and investor sentiment. Unfortunately, the pandemic had other repercussions.Echoes of the pandemicWe saw several headwinds in 2021 and 2022, such as:bottlenecks at ports causing logistical headaches and increased costs;a tight labor market that necessitated signing bonuses and wage increases;inflation and rock-bottom consumer sentiment weighing on margins; andand a strong US dollar (DXY) which crushed international profits.All told, these challenges added billions in costs and sent two of Amazon's three segments into the red.Amazon operates three segments, North America, which consists of retail sales and subscriptions; International, which includes the same for areas abroad; and Amazon Web Services (AWS) which consists of cloud services like infrastructure, platform, and software. Only AWS turned an operating profit through Q3 2022.The company is struggling to regain its footing, but there are several reasons for optimism among long-term investors, including this one that should be discussed more.Services sales blast offWhen COVID-19 pushed people into online shopping, Amazon enjoyed a massive boost in sales. By the end of 2021, product sales grew 50% over 2019 to reach $242 billion. Meanwhile, AWS enjoyed a surge as businesses benefited from hefty economic stimulus. Service sales increased by 90%from 2019 to 2021, reaching $228 billion.Over the trailing twelve months (TTMs) from Q3 2022, service sales have overtaken product salesfor the first time ever, and this remarkable trend deserves attention.Service sales include AWS, advertising, subscriptions (like Prime), and third-party seller services. Basically, everything other than online and physical stores. The rapid rise is shown below.Data source: Amazon. Chart by author.Why is this important?Service sales are much more desirable than product sales because they are significantly more profitable. For example, the AWS segment has an operating margin of 30%, while the North America and International segments had combined operating margins of 3% and 1.5% during the high-flying years 2020 and 2021, respectively.Discount retail sales aren't the road to riches. Services are.These revenues are more predictable and consistent as well. This is especially important to long-term investors since economic volatility is often felt in consumer spending first.Look to MicrosoftMicrosoft (MSFT) is a tremendous example of a company that went from licensing products to selling subscription services. When Microsoft's CEOSatya Nadellatook over, he transformed the business to a cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, which includes subscriptions for Microsoft Office and other software, and, of course, Microsoft Azure (AWS's most prominent competitor).The proof is in the pudding, as Microsoft's results have been fantastic. Profitability is terrific, and investors can count on consistent results. Below are Microsoft's steady service-based margins juxtaposed with Amazon's erratic results.Data by YChartsMicrosoft and Amazon are two very different companies, and Amazon needs its product sales to drive its other businesses, like Prime and advertising. However, its move to increased reliance upon services will help smooth results and increase profitability.Speaking of advertising...While we are on the subject, Amazon's digital ad business is a force.Companies bid on Amazon's pay-per-click services to get their product front and center on Amazon's website. You will see them as \"sponsored products\" or \"sponsored brands\" when shopping. It's a terrific way to increase sales among tough competition.Businesses need to be smart with ad budgets, especially in this economy. This means targeting consumers who are ready to buy. Providers like Alphabet (GOOG)(GOOGL) and Amazon do just that. Whether on Google Search or Amazon, if someone searches for a \"6 ft HDMI cord\" like I recently did, chances are excellent that they are ready to buy right then. Advertisers will pay top dollar for these opportunities.As shown below, Amazon's advertising sales have nearly tripled since 2019, and there is massive potential for more.Data source: Amazon. Chart by author.Other initiatives, like\"Buy with Prime,\"are coming. Advertising services will be a huge part of Amazon's long-term success.Amazon's cash flow problemFree cash flow has been a challenge recently, as shown below.Data by YChartsThe headwinds mentioned above are a problem, but only part of the story. Capital expenditures (CAPEX) have ballooned from $18.9 billion in 2019 to $40 billion in 2020 to nearly $66 billion over the TTMs.Breakneck increases in retail and AWS sales required these physical and technical infrastructure investments. The bad news is that the need coincides with other headwinds.The cash-flow woes also come at an inopportune time for investors. While companies like Google-parent Alphabet are buying back significant shares while the stock price is low, Amazon cannot take advantage of this.The good news is that CAPEX is an investment in the future and should begin to decline on an absolute and percentage of sales basis. Look for free cash flow to trend higher in 2023.Is Amazon stock a buy?Amazon stock has been a lightning rod lately. And for a good reason. There are encouraging signs and warnings.Logistical bottlenecks, rising labor costs, inflation, and the strong dollar are all dissipating. Unfortunately, AWS growth is slowing, a recession appears imminent, and consumer sentiment is low. There could be rough times ahead, but long-term investors can buy shares at prices not seen in years.Getting ahead of the curveIf you're going to be in this game for the long pull, which is the way to do it, you better be able to handle a 50% decline without fussing too much about it. -Charlie Munger....the secret to survival is knowin' what to throw away, and knowing what to keep. -The Gambler, Kenny RogersIn my last article, New Year, New Strategy? Actually, No; Here's Why we saw how many of the best investments in the previous 20 years experienced steep dips and furious recoveries. The key is to own terrific companies, hold for the long haul, and add opportunistically.If Amazon were a ship at sea, it would have been hit by a hurricane, cyclone, and whirlpool, then lurched into port only to find that a tsunami is heading right for it. But investors should be proactive, not reactive.Amazon is the world's leading cloud services provider, has more than 200 million Prime subscribers, a burgeoning ad business, and a stranglehold on the growing US online retail market. Long-term investors who can handle short-term volatility should consider accumulating Amazon stock at these distressed prices.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMZN":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2563,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9958281928,"gmtCreate":1673748624165,"gmtModify":1676538880994,"author":{"id":"3562288345465729","authorId":"3562288345465729","name":"TheRainmaker","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a2446b188392bb216f8e13ba56e44832","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562288345465729","idStr":"3562288345465729"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9958281928","repostId":"2303808882","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2303808882","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1673667262,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2303808882?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-01-14 11:34","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Nasdaq Bear Market: 2 Stocks Down 45% and 82% Poised to Rebound in 2023","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2303808882","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These former highfliers are ready to rally.","content":"<div>\n<p>\"The best bargains are always found in frightening environments.\"-- Howard MarksBear markets can be terrifying.

Watching helplessly as your life savings disappear is enough to scare even seasoned investors.But the best investors, such as Oaktree Capital Management co-founder Howard Marks, know that market downturns can create spectacular opportunities to profit.Fortunately, we have just such an opportunity today. The following companies saw their stock prices plunge during the 2022 bear market. But they're set to enjoy powerful growth catalysts in the coming years. And with their shares now much more reasonably priced, these beaten-down growth stocks are particularly attractive buys.EtsyE-commerce sales surged during the early part of the pandemic. Etsy experienced explosive growth during this period as more people shopped on its sites for handmade items and craft supplies. But after health restrictions were lifted and shoppers returned to traditional retail stores, Etsy's growth slowed. Impatient traders sold, and its stock price sank 45% last year.Yet Etsy's shares have rallied roughly 90% from their 52-week lows because investors have begun to realize that much of the gains the company earned during the pandemic are likely permanent. The number of active buyers on Etsy's platform topped 88 million in Q3, doubling from the third quarter in 2019. Those buyers are also spending more, with sales per active buyer up 33% during that time. All told, Etsy's revenue and operating cash flow for the first nine months of 2022 rose to $1.8 billion and $392 million, respectively, up from $548 million and $128 million in the comparable period in 2019.Moreover, Etsy's growth could reaccelerate as e-commerce trends normalize. Online retail sales will approach $7.4 trillion in 2025, up from $5.5 trillion in 2022, according to eMarketer. If Etsy can capture just a small portion of that growth -- and multiple signs suggest it can -- investors who buy its shares at their discounted price today will likely be well rewarded.Rivian AutomotiveSupply chain disruptions made it impossible for Rivian Automotive to hit its vehicle production target for 2022. Meanwhile, surging raw material costs led the electric vehicle (EV) upstart's losses to widen. Rivian's stock price, in turn, plunged 82% last year.But with its shares trading near record lows, Rivian's stock is now much more reasonably priced. The EV maker ended the third quarter with over $13 billion in cash reserves. That figure is likely lower today due to the company's production expenses. Still, with Rivian's current market cap standing at roughly $15 billion, you can buy its shares at only slightly more than the value of the cash it holds on its balance sheet. Investors are essentially assigning little value to Rivian's operations -- or its potential to generate profits in the future.Yet Rivian's growth prospects remain intriguing. Sales of fully electric vehicles topped 800,000 in the U.S. in 2022, good for year-over-year growth of over 60%, according to Motor Intelligence. EVs accounted for 5.8% of all vehicles sold last year, up from 3.2% in 2021, as reported by The Wall Street Journal.Rivian has captured a small sliver of this rapidly expanding market. Its 20,332 vehicle deliveries in 2022 comprised just 2.6% of total U.S. EV sales. But as of Nov. 7, 2022, Rivian had over 114,000 preorders for its popular R1T pickup truck and R1S SUV. The automaker is ramping up production to meet the booming demand for its EVs.Rivian also has an order for a whopping 100,000 commercial vans from Amazon that it intends to fulfill by 2025. Notably, the e-commerce giant owns a roughly 17% stake in Rivian, which is currently valued at about $2.6 billion.With its bountiful cash reserves, Amazon's backing, and strong consumer demand for its vehicles, Rivian could rebound sharply from its recent lows. Investors who buy the EV maker's shares today stand to earn sizable rewards if Rivian can deliver on its awesome growth potential.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"RIVN":0.9,"ETSY":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2709,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"defaultTab":"following","isTTM":true}
