Yet, NIO stock is down 50% in the past year.Maybe that’s because in the past several months, the company’s sales growth and financial results haven’t been all that impressive. Or perhaps it’s because the electric vehicle maker faces extremely tough competition from the likes of Xpeng(NYSE:XPEV),Li Auto(NASDAQ:LI) and Tesla(NASDAQ:TSLA). Nio also seems to be significantly behind a number of its rivals when it comes to autonomous driving.High Prices and Tough CompetitionOne thing that could hinder Nio going forward is the relatively high prices of its vehicles. The base prices for Nio’s EV lineup ranges from about $50,000 to roughly $70,000. Add in extras and customization and they can run upward of $80,000.NIO’s latest model, the ET7, will cost customers about$68,710 and $77,640depending on what battery pack they pick. And that’s after factoring in EV subsidies from the Chinese government.For comparison, Xpeng’s after-subsidy base prices range from $23,000 to $36,000, while Tesla’s cheapest Model 3starts at around $40,000.Nio also faces a great deal of competition at the higher end of the EV market from some famous and well-regarded brands including BMW(OTC:BMWYY), Audi, Lincoln and Mercedes.In China, where incomes are generally lower than in the U.S. and Western Europe, less expensive EVs have a much better chance of becoming bestsellers than their more costly peers. In the end, selling millions of EVs with, say, a 20% gross margin will prove more profitable than selling a few hundred thousand vehicles with, say, a 40% gross margin.Nio Appears To Be Falling Behind in Autonomous DrivingIt seems that Nio is well behind Xpeng and Tesla when it comes to autonomous driving. Last month, Barron’s reported: “NIO Autonomous Driving or NAD, as the company calls it, will maintain driving speeds and do some steering, but drivers still need to pay attention to the road at all times.” Doesn’t sound all that “autonomous” to me.Meanwhile, in October, Xpeng released its Xpilot 3.5 version of its advanced driver-assistance system. “The system allows Xpeng’s cars to change lanes, speed up or slow down, or overtake cars and enter and exit highways,” according to CNBC.And in November, Tesla started offering its Enhanced Autopilot system in China to some customers. According to Inside EVs, among the features offered by Tesla’s system are “Summon, Autopark, Auto Lane Change, and, most importantly, Navigate on Autopilot.”You don’t have to be an expert on autonomous vehicles to see that Nio is trailing Xpeng and Tesla in this area by a significant margin.Disappointing Sales Growth and Financial ResultsFor December, Nio reported that its deliveries had increased nearly 50%year over year to 10,489 EVs. That’s not terrible, but it was lower than the prior month’s 10,878 deliveries and a marked slowdown from November’s year-over-year growth of 106%.It also paled in comparison to its competitors’ December growth. XPeng delivered 16,000 vehicles in December, up 181% from a year ago and 2.5% from November. And Li Auto saw its deliveries hit 14,087 in December, up 4.5% over November and 130% year over year.Nio is expected to report fourth-quarter earnings next month. Management’s most recent guidance, released in November, of $1.46 billion to $1.56 billion fell short of analysts’ estimates of $1.75 billion. The consensus has since lowered its forecast, predicting Nio will earn $1.53 billion. That represents year-over-year growth of 49.5%, while full-year revenue is expected to increase 120% to $5.62 billion.If the company fails to meet or beat these numbers, NIO stock could sell off sharply.The Bottom Line on Nio StockNio faces tough competition in the Chinese EV market and appears to be falling behind its competitors in terms of growth. The high price of Nio’s vehicles compared with some of its rivals’ and its relatively slow progress when it comes to self-driving technologies could cost the company its edge.Shares are currently trading for five times analysts’ average 2022 revenue estimate, which could prove to be overly optimistic. NIO stock isn’t expensive for an EV name, but it isn’t cheap either. And that valuation appears to bake in a meaningful amount of sales growth for the automaker, both at home and overseas.I recommend investors avoid NIO stock at this point.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"NIO":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4251,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9005076979,"gmtCreate":1642128438348,"gmtModify":1676533684694,"author":{"id":"4087529754286040","authorId":"4087529754286040","name":"SHWong","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/274f969ad8f1b9a4a87c520c04f905a0","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087529754286040","idStr":"4087529754286040"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls like","listText":"Pls like","text":"Pls like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9005076979","repostId":"1120907307","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1120907307","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1642127607,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1120907307?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-14 10:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why did Snap Stock Slide Today?

(Check out the two-year chart here.)Today's fall came courtesy of Cowen, which downgraded the stock to Market Perform and slashed its target to $45 from $75. Thanks to the slide today, the new target now implies 17% upside from here.The firm downgraded the social-media camera company due to expectations that the impact of last year's Apple iOS 14.5 privacy changes isn't going away anytime soon. Its survey of ad buyers shows 63% expect targeting and measurement challenges to linger for at least six months, and 39% expect slower or declining ad-spend growth this year.The Apple changes have produced a sharp turnaround in Cowen's new take. A year ago, an upbeat outlook for digital ads saw it boost its price target to $62 amid\"stable to rising\" pricing and solid engagement. And in April, it hiked its target to $88 based on the trends it saw play out in last year's first quarter.Cowen's departing here from a generally Bullish Wall Street; Seeking Alpha contributors are Neutral on Snap. And SA's proprietary quant ratings are Bearish on Snap, with low grades for Profitability, Momentum and (especially) valuation.Yesterday, Barclays suggested its most out-of-consensus call on the digital ad space was that Snap could surprise to the upside (despite an industry-high multiple on Enterprise Value-to-revenue).","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"SNAP":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3061,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9006297320,"gmtCreate":1641745392610,"gmtModify":1676533644424,"author":{"id":"4087529754286040","authorId":"4087529754286040","name":"SHWong","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/274f969ad8f1b9a4a87c520c04f905a0","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087529754286040","idStr":"4087529754286040"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls like","listText":"Pls like","text":"Pls like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9006297320","repostId":"1102171196","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1102171196","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1641688617,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1102171196?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-09 08:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"US IPO Week Ahead: PE and HR come to market in a 2 IPO week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1102171196","media":"Renaissance Capital","summary":"Private equity and outsourced human resources are coming to the IPO market in the week ahead, with t","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Private equity and outsourced human resources are coming to the IPO market in the week ahead, with two IPOs slated to raise a combined $1.2 billion.</p><p><b>TPG</b>(TPG) plans to raise $1.0 billion at a $9.3 billion market cap.

At the onset of the pandemic in 2020, energy stocks cratered because of a historic decline in demand. However, the U.S. economy began to open in early 2021 and demand increased.Just as that demand was increasing, the Biden administration took measures to slow down domestic supply. This created the perfect storm for traditional oil and gas stocks on one hand and renewable energy stocks on the other. The storm is likely to continue to blow through the market in 2022.Demand should remain high even with uncertainty about the virus. With inflation likely to remain high for the first half of the year, many investors will be looking to energy stocks for a reliable dividend.That doesn’t mean you can simply close your eyes and throw a dart at the energy sector, but it does mean that there’s an opportunity to buy some of the best-in-class stocks in both traditional and alternative energy companies.Here are seven energy stocks that can give your portfolio an all-of-the-above approach:Marathon Petroleum(NYSE:MPC)Chevron(NYSE:CVX)NextEra Energy(NYSE:NEE)Enterprise Product Partners(NYSE:EPD)Enphase(NASDAQ:ENPH)Brookfield Renewable Partners(NYSE:BEP)ChargePoint(NYSE:CHPT)Marathon Petroleum (MPC)As traditional oil and gas stocks go, you could do worse than investing in Marathon Petroleum.As 2021 kicked off, MPC stock was down nearly 30%. However, investors were already starting to see signs of a recovery. That’s because it was around that time that the first Covid-19 vaccines were being delivered.If you bought the stock at that time, you were rewarded with a gain of nearly 56%. Should investors expect that kind of return in 2022? That would seem unlikely. But oil prices are likely to remain high and analysts give the stock a gain of 13% in the next 12 months.Marathon pays a quarterly dividend that currently has a yield of 3.68% with a three-year average dividend growth of over 26%. The company has increased its dividend in each of the last nine years.Chevron (CVX)If you believe that a “both/and” approach will be required as a bridge to a cleaner energy future, then Chevron should definitely be in your consideration set.CVX stock is up 40% in the last 12 months, but that has analysts concerned that it may be near its peak. However, opportunistic investors may want to look at any dip as an opportunity to buy shares of this best-in-class oil and gas stock.Chevron CEO Mike Wirth gave an interview to Barron’s Streetwise this summer in which he predicted that oil and gas prices will remain high for the foreseeable future.Chevron is also making strategic investments in renewable energy, particularly renewable natural gas, renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel.Although the company has no plans to market wind or solar, it is investing in hydrogen and carbon capture as long-term opportunities.Chevron is a Dividend Aristocrat having increased its dividend in each of the last 34 years.NextEra Energy (NEE)There’s no reason to believe that clean energy is going to become less important. That alone is a reason to invest in NextEra Energy.However, when it comes to investing in energy stocks, location matters. That’s another good reason to buy NextEra Energy stock. The company is based in Florida and has over11 million residential customersthat help the company generate over $16 billion in annual revenue.With a stock that’s up nearly 25% in the last 12 months, it may be fair for investors to wonder if NextEra Energy is overvalued. One thing to consider is what analysts have to say and at this time, analysts still give NEE stock a buy rating.With NextEra Energy you also get one of the most reliable dividend stocks you can own. The company is a dividend aristocrat that has increased its dividend in each of the last 27 years. With three-year dividend growth of 38%, this is a strong performing dividend stock as well.Enterprise Product Partners (EPD)Dividend yield can be a misleading reason to buy a stock. But when you combine the possibility of a dividend yield of over 8% with a stock in a red-hot sector, you have a powerful combination.That’s what you get with Enterprise Product Partners.However, that’s not the only reason to buy EPD stock. The company boasts one of the largest scales and sizes in the industry. And this has resulted in the company having a steady and growing, distributable cash flow.This, in turn, fuels the dividend growth which the company has increased for the last 23 years. investors can still count on a little growth because of the company’s leadership in the sector.Analysts are giving a 12-month price target of $27.67, a nearly 26% upside from the stock’s price as 2022 kicks off.Enphase (ENPH)Enphase addresses a key limitation of solar power. Specifically, the company’s microinverter technology converts direct current power from solar panels to alternating current power.This allows efficient use of solar energy in the evening and on cloudy days. Another benefit of microinverter technology is that it reduces the possibility of a single point failure taking down an entire solar panel system.The company recently announced the launch of its IQ8 solar microinverters that makes them the first in the industry to provide a solution to power essential appliances during daytime solar panel outages even without a home battery.Furthermore, while Enphase generates over 80% of its revenue in the United States, it’s looking to expand internationally. One product, Ensemble-in-a-Box, is an infrastructure-light solution that is ideal for countries like India.As of this writing, ENPH stock is trading 54% its 52-week high. However, analysts give the stock a $244.78 price target that represents a34% upside from its current price.Brookfield Renewable Partners (BEP)For investors looking for a pure-play stock in renewable energy systems, Brookfield Renewable Partners is worthy of consideration.To begin with, Brookfield Renewable is one of the world’s largest publicly traded renewable power platforms.The company has a portfolio made up of nearly $58 billion assets under management in hydroelectric, wind, solar and storage projects spread over four continents.BEP stock is trading near its 52-week low which puts this dividend stock at an attractive price point for value-seeking investors.After cutting its dividend in 2020 in response to the pandemic, Brookfield increased its dividend in 2021. The dividend yield of 3.41% is slightly below the sector average, but it’s higher than the average of companies that trade on the New York Stock Exchange.BEP stock is a favorite of analysts who give it a consensus price target of $44.42 which would be 24% higher than the current stock price.ChargePoint (CHPT)ChargePoint has been a polarizing stock in 2021. In fact, down 51% for the year, CHPT stock could easily take the crown of one of 2021’s biggest losers.Some of this bearish sentiment has to do with the company being lumped in with the electric vehicle (EV) sector. Some of it has to do with the delay in the U.S. Congress passing the infrastructure bill that has money set aside for building out a charging station infrastructure.However, ChargePoint is an investment in “when” not “if.” If electric vehicles are going to become a mainstream alternative, a nationwide charging infrastructure will be a must.This is a crowded sector, but ChargePoint is among the leaders and is adapting its product line to provide solutions for battery packs that will allow consumers to charge wherever they are at (e.g. grocery store parking lots, entertainment venues, etc.).CHPT stock is trading near its 52-week low and analysts project a 64% upside for the stock.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"BEP":0.9,"MPC":0.9,"NEE":0.9,"CHPT":0.9,"EPD":0.9,"ENPH":0.9,"CVX":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2371,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9003841326,"gmtCreate":1640941675250,"gmtModify":1676533557135,"author":{"id":"4087529754286040","authorId":"4087529754286040","name":"SHWong","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/274f969ad8f1b9a4a87c520c04f905a0","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087529754286040","idStr":"4087529754286040"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls like ","listText":"Pls like ","text":"Pls like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9003841326","repostId":"1138638823","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1138638823","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":1640941436,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1138638823?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-12-31 17:03","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla Recalls Nearly 200k Vehicles in China for Latch,Trunk Issues","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1138638823","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Shares of Tesla are down about 1% in pre-open Friday after the company filed a recall of nearly 200,","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Shares of Tesla are down about 1% in pre-open Friday after the company filed a recall of nearly 200,000 vehicles in China.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/403575639df16af4a4bf14258d9fa2e9\" tg-width=\"841\" tg-height=\"621\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Tesla Motors (Beijing) Co., Ltd. recalled some imported Model S electric vehicles with a production date from January 21, 2015 to November 18, 2020, with a total of 19,697 vehicles.</p><p>For vehicles within the scope of this recall, the alignment position of the front trunk latch and the latch may be slightly backward.
