of Singapore’s Sea says company is now ‘self-sufficient’Shift comes after ruthless cost-cutting drive in the past yearJust over a year ago, Forrest Li was laid up in bed with Covid, fretting about the future of his company, Sea Ltd. So he propped himself up on a pillow to hammer out the latest in a series of memos that would change the course of his business — and perhaps the tech industry.Sea had been a stock market phenom, racing to a market capitalization of more than $200 billion despite huge losses, but the world had changed. Investors had turned against money-losing tech companies. So Sea had to change with it, Li wrote. With a burning fever and nagging cough, he told his leadership team it was time to focus on profit and exit India.That memo kicked off a sweeping overhaul of Sea over the next few months. The company laid off roughly more than 7,500 employees, or about 10% of its workforce, though Sea declined to disclose the actual numbers. It froze pay. Li and his leadership team gave up their salaries altogether.Business-class flights were banned; everyone would fly economy, no matter how far. Daily meal expenses were capped at $30, hotels at $150 a night. Snacks disappeared from offices. Sea replaced the local luxury tea brand TWG with Lipton. In at least some restrooms, two-ply toilet paper gave way to one-ply.“We cared about every single dollar, every single cent,” Li said at his office in Singapore, his first interview in more than two years. “You can have a big dream and a big ambition, but what if you cannot survive? You always have this kind of noise back in your mind saying we may be running out of money.”Li’s shock treatment paid off. In March, Sea reported the first quarterly profit in its 14-year history, $427 million in GAAP-sanctioned net income. Its stock soared 22%. Last week, it said it would hand out 5% raises to most staff. Sea has now more than doubled its market value since November.Like so many tech startups of its generation, Sea had bled red ink for years. In fact, it lost more than $8 billion since its founding to pay for growth in its e-commerce, games and finance operations. For now at least, Sea is setting a different kind of example: It’s demonstrating that if your underlying business is sound and substantial, you can pull back on subsidies and expansions to break even.That’s proving a challenge for rivals. Among Sea’s regional competitors, Singapore’s Grab Holdings Ltd. is still losing more than $300 million a quarter, while Indonesia’s GoTo Group’s losses exceed $250 million. Sea may also cause trouble for global tech giants like Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. and Amazon.com Inc., which are both seeking growth in emerging markets. “What you’re seeing is a separation of proper, monetizable business models from something that is a work-in-progress,” said Amit Kunal, managing partner of Growtheum Capital, a private equity firm in Singapore, speaking broadly about the tech industry. “Sea read the market much earlier, took appropriate steps — and delivered.”Sea Went Through a Rocky Two Years | Forrest Li has navigated numerous ups and downs since 2021Li had a premonition that trouble was coming. Back in November 2021, he hosted his leadership team at his Singapore home for dinner to mark his 44th birthday. They had much to celebrate. Sea’s shares had surged to a record in October, giving the firm a valuation of more than $200 billion, aided by a pandemic-induced boom for its online gaming unit Garena and e-commerce business Shopee. At one point in 2020, Sea was the best-performing stock in the world.But even at the dinner, Li saw ominous signs. He noticed that on Free Fire, the company’s popular multi-player mobile game with 150 million daily users, people were beginning to spend less time and money as Covid restrictions eased. The celebration turned into a debate about how the world would change after the pandemic. Then in February 2022, India abruptly banned Free Fire, along with dozens of Chinese apps, amid rising tensions between the two countries. While Li is a Singapore citizen and based his company there, he’s originally from northeastern China and Tencent Holdings Ltd. is a major shareholder. It was a huge setback in a key growth market.In March, when Li talked during a quarterly earnings call about plans to still pursue growth, investors dumped Sea shares. The firm lost more than 45% of its market value in five days. For Li, it was a wake-up call that things were worse than he’d thought. That’s when he wrote the somber memo to his team from his sickbed. Li and his senior team went into crisis mode. They began huddling every month to discuss cashflow projections, along with their regular weekly meetings. They spun through 200 different versions of financial forecasts in 2022, Li said in the interview, akin to rewriting the budget every two days.In addition to layoffs and salary freezes, Sea pulled out of Europe and most countries in Latin America.The fallout was traumatic for some. In August, a Chinese engineer posted on his WeChat account that Shopee had rescinded his job offer — just after he landed at the Singapore airport with his wife and dog. Amid a storm of negative publicity, Shopee apologized and compensated him for his losses. Employees resorted to taking money out of their own pockets to organize team events to boost morale, according to one employee, who asked not to be named as they are not authorized to speak publicly. Another described the grueling period as “cockroach times.” Li leaned on internal memos during the crisis to communicate with employees and explain what he was trying to accomplish. In an all-staff memo in September, he said top management would forgo any cash compensation until the company reached “self-sufficiency.” “We can now see that this is not a quickly passing storm,” he wrote in a 1,000-word missive at the time. “With investors fleeing for ‘safe haven’ investments, we do not anticipate being able to raise funds in the market.” At one point, Sea was proud it could offer employees the fanciest tea in Singapore, perks commensurate with the tech giants of Silicon Valley, Li said in the interview. Now he wants to break that mindset: Sea has to compete on cost with the likes of Amazon, where early employees famously forged desks out of Home Depot doors because they were cheaper.Some employees in certain offices noticed that toilet paper got thinner. Sometimes it would run out because people used more.“We’re going to continually push down the costs,” he said. “It’s not just for saving but for running the business more efficiently. This is going to be the long-term mode for us.” After Sea cut its entertainment budget so employees could no longer spring for meals with suppliers or partners, Li encouraged staff to tell them the company couldn’t afford such things any more. Sea also called most staff in Southeast Asia back to office late last year, one of the first big internet firms to do so in the region. While Li acknowledges the road has been difficult, he said he had no doubt Sea could reach breakeven. He said the company’s path, in many ways, traces the precedents of Amazon and founder Jeff Bezos. Seattle-based Amazon consistently lost money for its first years as a public company, with Bezos maintaining that investing in growth was more important than quarterly earnings. Similarly, Sea built Shopee by burning more than a billion dollars a year before overtaking local e-commerce pioneer Tokopedia in Indonesia and Alibaba’s Lazada in Southeast Asia. Sea Shares on Recovery Path After 90% Slide from 2021 HighLi argues that Sea has a unique opportunity to bring e-commerce to emerging markets, the kinds of places where Amazon may be at a disadvantage. Success in these countries can depend on serving customers who live on remote islands, finding a payment solution where few people have credit cards or delivering parcels where there are no proper roads or postal codes. “It’s probably hard for the Silicon Valley innovator to think about those issues specifically,” Li said. While much of Sea’s expansion is in Asian markets like Indonesia, Li also thinks the company has an advantage in Brazil, where Shopee has had success since launching in 2019. With its 214 million population and decent per-capita income, he thinks the country is Sea’s most promising growth market. “We spent a lot of money when capital was relatively cheap and available, and it’s kind of an almost 10-year effort,” Li said of Brazil. These days, Li says he’s splitting his time between Singapore and California to stay close to the “mind-blowing” artificial intelligence revolution that’s taking place in Silicon Valley. He believes AI will play a big role in replacing much of the repetitive work for Sea’s e-commerce, gaming and fintech businesses. Gaming, in particular, is probably ahead of online shopping in terms of how people use AI to develop and play games by making it more interactive and immersive, he said.As the interview at Sea’s headquarters winds down, Li is asked whether company will be able to keep turning a profit every quarter. He cocked his head to the side and, with a laugh, said he can’t reveal too much since Sea is in a quiet period ahead of first-quarter results on May 16.But that’s not really the point, he added. The key thing is that Sea has been able to demonstrate for employees and investors that it can reach breakeven when it has to. So now, it can calibrate growth and profit depending on strategic priorities.“The numbers show that the destiny is in our own hands,” he said. “We sleep very well now.”","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"SE":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3680,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9946621846,"gmtCreate":1680948276285,"gmtModify":1680948279949,"author":{"id":"4109504542406510","authorId":"4109504542406510","name":"Pepermintpat","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/0804feddbf156f8e808003b7ca831628","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4109504542406510","authorIdStr":"4109504542406510"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yes! 💪","listText":"Yes! 💪","text":"Yes! 💪","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9946621846","repostId":"2325259359","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2907,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9941228916,"gmtCreate":1680300967635,"gmtModify":1680300971264,"author":{"id":"4109504542406510","authorId":"4109504542406510","name":"Pepermintpat","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/0804feddbf156f8e808003b7ca831628","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4109504542406510","authorIdStr":"4109504542406510"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great opportunities&nbsp;in a decade !","listText":"Great opportunities&nbsp;in a decade !","text":"Great opportunities in a decade !","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":13,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9941228916","repostId":"2323795936","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2323795936","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1680276181,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2323795936?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-31 23:23","market":"us","language":"en","title":"A Bull Market Is Coming: Here's Warren Buffett's Investing Advice","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2323795936","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Your strategy can make or break your portfolio right now.","content":"<div>\n<p>The past year has been rough for most people, and it's easy to feel pessimistic about the future.

A whopping 83% of U.S. adults say they're feeling stressed about inflation, according to a 2022 survey from the American Psychological Association. And with many people worried about an impending recession, it's possible things could get worse before they get better.However, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. A bull market is on the way, and legendary investor Warren Buffett can offer some smart advice about how to handle your investments right now.1. Don't get hung up on short-term market movementsWhen the market is rocky, it's easy to focus on all the short-term ups and downs. But what really matters is the long-term performance.Timing the market effectively is next to impossible, so nobody can say for certain when this bear market will end and the next bull market will begin. But we do know that no downturn lasts forever, so it's only a matter of time before the market rebounds.^SPX data by YCharts.In 2008, at the height of the Great Recession, Warren Buffett wrote an opinion piece for The New York Times. He wrote:I can't predict the short-term movements of the stock market. I haven't the faintest idea as to whether stocks will be higher or lower a month or a year from now. What is likely, however, is that the market will move higher, perhaps substantially so, well before either sentiment or the economy turns up. So if you wait for the robins, spring will be over.It's not easy watching your portfolio drop in value. But in times like these, it's more important than ever to keep a long-term outlook. The market will recover eventually, and the best thing you can do right now is ride out the storm.2. Keep investing during the slumpsStock market downturns may not seem like the best time to invest, but they can actually be a fantastic buying opportunity. When the market is in a slump, stock prices are lower -- sometimes substantially so.Many stocks have watched their prices drop by 50% or more over the past year, which means now is your chance to load up on quality investments at a steep discount. Then when the market recovers, you could see lucrative earnings.This strategy is one of the most effective ways to build wealth in the stock market and is also a Buffett-approved approach. As he wrote in the Times article.A simple rule dictates my buying: Be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful. To be sure, investors are right to be wary of highly leveraged entities or businesses in weak competitive positions. But fears regarding the long-term prosperity of the nation's many sound companies make no sense. These businesses will indeed suffer earnings hiccups, as they always have. But most major companies will be setting new profit records 5, 10 and 20 years from now.3. Focus on quality companiesKeeping a long-term outlook and investing during the market's low points are two important steps to building wealth, but the third part of the equation is arguably the most important: Invest in the right stocks.The investments you choose will make or break your portfolio. Shaky stocks will have a tougher time recovering from market downturns, and there's a greater risk you'll lose money. But strong stocks from healthy companies are far more likely to rebound.In Berkshire Hathaway's 2021 letter to shareholders, Buffett emphasized that he and business partner Charlie Munger focus heavily on investing in quality companies. \"[W]e own stocks based upon our expectations about their long-term business performance and not because we view them as vehicles for timely market moves,\" he writes. \"That point is crucial: Charlie and I are not stock-pickers; we are business-pickers.\"Right now is not an easy time to be an investor, but that doesn't mean it's a bad time to invest. By choosing quality investments, continuing to invest during the market's slumps, and holding those stocks for the long term, you can not only survive this downturn but generate wealth that lasts a lifetime.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"BRK.B":0.9,"BRK.A":0.62}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3639,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9941612591,"gmtCreate":1680188216914,"gmtModify":1680188221291,"author":{"id":"4109504542406510","authorId":"4109504542406510","name":"Pepermintpat","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/0804feddbf156f8e808003b7ca831628","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4109504542406510","authorIdStr":"4109504542406510"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Target $280 👍 it's great value n growth&nbsp;","listText":"Target $280 👍 it's great value n growth&nbsp;","text":"Target $280 👍 it's great value n growth","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9941612591","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3548,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9943136341,"gmtCreate":1679264975084,"gmtModify":1679264978529,"author":{"id":"4109504542406510","authorId":"4109504542406510","name":"Pepermintpat","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/0804feddbf156f8e808003b7ca831628","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4109504542406510","authorIdStr":"4109504542406510"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":11,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9943136341","repostId":"2320959642","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2320959642","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1679190744,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2320959642?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-19 09:52","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Fed to Consider a Pause as Fallout From SVB Roils Markets","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2320959642","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"UK, Switzerland, Norway, Nigeria, Philippines may hikeBrazil and Turkey will probably hold rates thi","content":"<div>\n<p>UK, Switzerland, Norway, Nigeria, Philippines may hikeBrazil and Turkey will probably hold rates this weekJerome Powell, chairman of the US Federal Reserve.Source: BloombergFederal Reserve officials ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-03-18/federal-reserve-interest-rates-latest-fed-pause-likely-on-svb-fallout?srnd=markets-vp\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1584095487587","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

President Christine Lagarde said the ECB remains committed to fighting inflation, while monitoring bank tensions closely.Also highly anticipated from the Fed meeting with be an update to the Summary of Economic Projections — a quarterly report laying out participants’ forecasts for everything from inflation to interest rates — and Chair Jerome Powell’s post-meeting press conference.Amid the banking sector turmoil, Powell will likely face questions around the central bank’s supervision of SVB and other struggling entities.He’ll also need to tread carefully when talking about the likely future path of interest rates. Before the banking issues emerged, Fed officials had indicated that rates would need to move above 5% this year and remain there until inflation was on pace to fall back to their 2% target.Yet heightened uncertainty over to what extent bank capitalization issues — exacerbated by the Fed’s rapid interest rate increases and the impact on Treasury yields — will impact the broader economy may limit Powell’s ability to tighten much more going forward.What Bloomberg Economics Says...“The FOMC faces its most challenging policy decision in recent memory on March 22. Market expectations have shifted sharply — from a 50-basis-point hike to a pause — as fears of bank contagion displace inflation concerns. We expect the Fed to hike 25 basis points, taking the upper bound from 4.75% to 5%. Reaccelerating inflation maintains pressure to keep hiking.”— Anna Wong, chief US economist. For full analysisElsewhere, 12 other central banks set policy in the coming week. Economists predict rate hikes in the UK, Switzerland, Norway, Nigeria and the Philippines, while Brazil and Turkey will probably hold. Meanwhile, traders betting on the Bank of Canada’s rate path will get a fresh inflation reading.AsiaOn Monday, the People’s Bank of China will likely report that banks left their loan prime rates unchanged as the economy gradually recovers.In Tokyo, a summary of opinions from the Bank of Japan’s meeting earlier this month will shed more light on the rationale for keeping monetary policy steady ahead of Kazuo Ueda’s arrival at the helm in April.Reserve Bank of Australia official Chris Kent on Monday may offer an up-to-date take on the policy stance and any concerns over financial market contagion. Those remarks will likely prove more timely than minutes due Tuesday from the RBA’s March meeting.Early trade numbers from South Korea will offer a pulse check on global conditions.Japan’s inflation figures on Friday are set to mirror earlier data that pointed to a cooling of prices, helped largely by newly subsidized electricity bills.Hong Kong and Taiwan central banks will announce their interest rates on Thursday.Europe, Middle East, AfricaThe Fed may be the dominant central-bank decision this week, but several others will also draw investors’ attention.The Bank of England takes center stage in Europe. Officials await the latest UK inflation reading on Wednesday, possibly showing price growth is still close to double digits. Most economists predict rates will be raised by a quarter-point the next day, though with financial tensions still simmering, a minority sees no change.Here’s a quick rundown of the other decisions due:The Swiss National Bank meeting on Thursday is a quarterly one and there’s catch-up to do, so a hike of as much as 50 basis points is widely anticipated. Overshadowing the outcome is Credit Suisse Group AG, the stricken bank offered a lifeline to help contain global turmoil.The same day in Norway, where officials are forecast to raise rates by another quarter point to extend the monetary tightening cycle in the oil-rich economy.An Icelandic decision is due on Wednesday, with another big rate hike possible.Looking south, central banks will be very active too. Here’s a quick summary:Nigeria may raise rates on Tuesday to contain inflation that’s near an 18-year high, and to encourage investment.In Angola the same day, officials may cut benchmark borrowing costs for a second time this year as the kwanza remains stable, commodity prices are seen moderating, and a downward swing in price growth looks likely to continue.In Morocco that day, the central bank will most likely pause monetary tightening as food prices start to ease.And in Turkey on Thursday, officials are expected to hold rates steady. Any signs of future policy will be key as the country heads toward elections in May, where President Recep Tayyip Erdogan faces the strongest challenge yet to his two decades in power.After the ECB’s meeting on Thursday, which ended with a half-pint hike but no future guidance, more than a dozen of its policy makers will speak in the coming days. President Lagarde is likely to draw the most attention with testimony to the European Parliament on Monday.Further clues on the backdrop for the banking system may be available when her ECB colleague Andrea Enria, the euro region’s top regulator, talks to the same panel of lawmakers the following day.Lagarde is also among officials who’ll take the stage at the ECB and Its Watchers conference in Frankfurt on Wednesday, and several others are scheduled to make appearances elsewhere during the week.Meanwhile, purchasing managers’ indexes in the euro zone and UK will give an indication of the strength of industry as China reopens, and the German Council of Economic Experts will publish an updated growth outlook.Latin AmericaA busy week in Brazil begins with the central bank’s survey of market expectations on inflation, which continue to edge further above target through 2025.Banco Central do Brasil is all but certain to hold its key rate at 13.75% for a fifth straight meeting, though policy makers may strike a dovish tone in the post-decision statement.After minimal disinflation over the past three mid-month consumer price readings, analysts see steeper deceleration for the mid-February print and into the second quarter due to base-effects, before a second-half uptick.Chile’s fourth-quarter output report may show that the Andean country narrowly avoided falling into a technical recession, due in part to untapped household liquidity and the impact of China’s reopening.In Argentina, four straight negative readings on its monthly economic activity indicator point to a quarterly contraction in output heading into a challenging 2023.In Mexico, the weakness seen in retail sales since May likely extended into January, while slumping demand from the US, the country’s biggest export market, can be expected to weigh on January GDP-proxy data.The early consensus has mid-month inflation coming in near a one-year low — though still more than twice the 3% target — while the somewhat more sticky core reading extends a drop from November’s two-decade high of 8.66%, in line with Banxico forecasts.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".SPX":0.9,".IXIC":0.9,".DJI":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2639,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9949843277,"gmtCreate":1678522518999,"gmtModify":1678522523000,"author":{"id":"4109504542406510","authorId":"4109504542406510","name":"Pepermintpat","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/0804feddbf156f8e808003b7ca831628","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4109504542406510","authorIdStr":"4109504542406510"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go for options in <a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/XLE\">$Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund(XLE)$&nbsp;</a>","listText":"Go for options in <a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/XLE\">$Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund(XLE)$&nbsp;</a>","text":"Go for options in $Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund(XLE)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9949843277","repostId":"2317441881","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2637,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9949814424,"gmtCreate":1678481879969,"gmtModify":1678481882235,"author":{"id":"4109504542406510","authorId":"4109504542406510","name":"Pepermintpat","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/0804feddbf156f8e808003b7ca831628","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4109504542406510","authorIdStr":"4109504542406510"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/SQQQ\">$Nasdaq100 Bear 3X ETF(SQQQ)$&nbsp;</a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/SQQQ\">$Nasdaq100 Bear 3X ETF(SQQQ)$&nbsp;</a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","text":"$Nasdaq100 Bear 3X ETF(SQQQ)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9949814424","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2570,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"defaultTab":"posts","isTTM":true}
