傳廣州限購區買房不認貸,銀行經理:政策影響較大,不確定是否執行
@时代财经:
本文來源:時代財經 作者:陳澤旋 圖片來源:圖蟲創意 1月9日晚,市場傳言廣州調整住房按揭貸款的多項認定條件。具體包括:個別銀行取消了對豪宅線的界定,所購住宅面積大於144平方米的購房者,在申請房貸時可按普通住宅政策進行;在限購區域無房、有房貸記錄但已結清的購房者,只需支付三成首付;在增城、從化等不限購區域擁有住房的購房者,在限購區域買房時可按無房政策申請房貸。 捲入此次傳言的爲民生銀行。時代財經以購房者的身份向民生銀行某支行個貸經理覈實上述消息的真實性,該個貸經理表示,由於政策影響較大,目前仍處於研討階段,尚未向外界正式公佈,也不能確定將來是否執行。 此外,包括工商銀行、農業銀行、中國銀行、建設銀行、招商銀行在內的多家主流銀行的個貸經理表示,目前所在行未在廣州執行上述政策。 據南方+報道,一家國有大行相關負責人稱,該消息傳出來後,金融主管部門負責人已向各家銀行重申廣州的住房信貸政策沒有變化,要求各家銀行不可自行突破。 按照原本的房貸政策,面積超過144平方米的住宅在廣州屬於非普通住房,購房家庭只要有房貸記錄無論是否結清,購房均需支付七成首付。 值得一提的是,廣東全省對普通住房的標準自2005年開始實施至今。根據《廣東省建設廳關於確定我省普通住房標準的通知》,小區建築容積率在1.0以上、單套住房套內建築面積120平方米以下或單套住房建築面積144平方米以下、實際成交價格低於同級別土地上住房平均交易價格的1.44倍以下的住房,劃爲普通住房,不符合該標準的爲非普通住房。由於非普通住房往往總價較高,關於普通住房、非普通住房的認定標準在市場間被稱爲“豪宅線”。 原本的房貸政策還規定,購房家庭在廣州全市範圍內無房,有貸款記錄但已結清時購房普通住房需支付4成首付,未結清者支付7成;擁有1套住房,再次購買普通住房時房貸已結清者支付5成首付,未結清者支付7成首付;而擁有2套住房的購房家庭

漲停!民爆股爆了,新一輪大洗牌後誰能成爲真正巨頭?
@市值观察:
作者:泰羅,編輯:小市妹 1月3日,節後第一天A股民爆板塊一改向下調整姿態,南嶺民爆、高爭民爆漲停、國泰集團、雪峯科技、保利聯合、金奧博、壺化股份、同德化工等都紛紛大漲。 資本市場是對預期的折現反映,根據中國爆破器材行業協會數據:2021年中國民爆生產企業生產總值及銷售總值均有增長,生產總值達344.38億元,銷售總值爲346.03億元。百億“擂臺”上,曾涌進了400多個玩家;擁有決賽圈實力(一級資質企業)的佔比不到9%;八成以上實力弱小,80%爲中小民營企業,生產規模小、裝備及技術能力低。▲2014-2020年我國民爆行業生產總值情況,數據來源:觀研天下 一邊是過度競爭,參與者過多;而另一邊,民爆行業可以說是一門“看天吃飯”的生意。 民爆對採礦和基建的依賴性很強,這兩個行業的景氣程度與宏觀經濟狀密切相關,所以經濟週期波動,以及礦業、基建的景氣度對民爆行業影響巨大。 2014年行業生產總值爲330億元,隨後隨着經濟週期開始下滑,直到2020年才超過2014年的水平。 2019年民爆企業生產總值爲332.49億元,同比增幅爲9.95%;2020年爲335.88億元,同比增速已下滑至1.02%。 作爲世界第二大經濟體,我國對高端民爆產品的需求持續旺盛,軌道交通、水電等行業又不斷催生新的需求,與此同時,民爆和機器人產業的融合前景廣闊。 &nbs

Investor","summary":"As 2022 draws to a close, there is no shortage of commentary about what a turbulent year it has been","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cd2195a0963e28be0ee1da4d645e9172\" tg-width=\"800\" tg-height=\"533\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>As 2022 draws to a close, there is no shortage of commentary about what a turbulent year it has been.</p><p>The mood turned bearish around March when the US Federal Reserve hiked interest rates for the first time in three years as inflation came in hotter than expected.</p><p>Initially, the stock market did not react strongly to this move.</p><p>However, with inflation hitting four-decade highs, the US central bank responded aggressively.</p><p>Within nine months, interest rates were raised to their highest level in 15 years as the Fed’s aggressive rate hikes brought the benchmark rate to between 4.25% and 4.5%.</p><p>The steep rise left its mark.</p><p>As of the date of writing, the NASDAQ and S&P 500 Indices had fallen by over 33% and 20%, respectively, pushing both into bear market territory.</p><p>Investors, at this point, may be wondering what’s in store for 2023.</p><p>The Federal Reserve has committed to raising interest rates further, possibly to above 5.1%, to continue to quell runaway inflation.</p><p>Elsewhere, experts are pencilling in the possibility of a recession in the US while analysts are projecting a fall in corporate earnings as we head into the New Year.</p><p>It’s going to be a tough year to navigate the markets, but here are five ways you can position your portfolio so that you can weather this storm.</p><h2><b>1. Businesses with pricing power</b></h2><p>Inflation is a headache for consumers and businesses alike.</p><p>But it’s easy to forget that businesses with strong brands can charge higher prices to offset this inflation without suffering a fall in demand.</p><p>Such businesses have what is known as “pricing power” as they hold the dominant mind-share of customers within their respective industries.</p><p>By loading up on shares of such stocks, they can help you offset the effects of inflation.</p><p>Take <b>VICOM</b>(SGX: WJP) for instance.</p><p>The vehicle inspection company has a market share of close to 75% and had just raised its car inspection prices on 1 November by 5% from S$64.20 to S$67.41.</p><p>With vehicle inspection being a mandatory requirement, vehicle owners will be unable to dodge this price increase.</p><p>VICOM should therefore not expect inspection volumes to fall.</p><p>For another example, coffee chain <b>Starbucks</b>(NASDAQ: SBUX), which operates around 35,000 outlets worldwide, saw its revenue for fiscal 2022 (ending 30 September) rise 11% year on year to a record US$32.3 billion.</p><p>On the company’s earnings call, it mentioned that prices have increased by 6% and yet it has not seen a corresponding fall in customer loyalty or transactions.</p><p>Cruise company <b>Norwegian Cruise Lines</b>(NYSE: NCLH) has also raised its prices to pass on higher costs to its customers, while the owner of SPAM, <b>Hormel Foods</b>(NYSE: HRL), is also targeting price increases as it grapples with inflation.</p><p>These US companies managed to raise their prices to counteract the effects of high inflation and with their strong market positions, investors can be confident that they can continue to do so.</p><h2><b>2. No or low debt</b></h2><p>Surging interest rates are a bane for homeowners as mortgage loans become more expensive.</p><p>For corporations with debt, higher rates also mean increased borrowing costs that eat into profits.</p><p>Investors, though, can eschew debt-heavy companies in favour of those with either low or no debt.</p><p>Businesses with little or zero debt are safe from rising interest rates and will not suffer the same level of financial stress as companies stuffed with loans.</p><p><b>VICOM</b> is in the spotlight once again for this attribute.</p><p>The company has a clean balance sheet with S$58.7 million of cash with zero debt as of 30 September.</p><p>Human resource company <b>HRNetGroup</b>(SGX: CHZ) is another cash-rich company with S$312.7 million of cash and no debt as of 30 June.</p><p>Meanwhile, <b>Micro-Mechanics (Holdings)</b>(SGX: 5DD), a designer and manufacturer of parts and tools used to assemble semiconductors, was sitting on S$25.3 million of cash and had no debt as of 30 September.</p><p>For something more familiar, your favourite curry puff seller, <b>Old Chang Kee</b>(SGX: 5ML), held S$30.1 million of cash with just S$4.7 million of borrowings for its latest half-year results.</p><h2><b>3. Recession-proofing your portfolio</b></h2><p>A recession could be on the cards for Singapore in 2023.</p><p>Rather than feeling worried, investors should treat recessions as a normal part of the economic cycle and not feel fearful.</p><p>Such events should be viewed as opportunities to scoop up shares of solid businesses that have been beaten down.</p><p>But if you’re worried as to whether a recession will adversely impact your investments, it’s a good idea to stick with tried and tested blue-chip names.</p><p>Yes, I am talking about stocks such as the three local banks <b>DBS Group</b>(SGX: D05), <b>United Overseas Bank</b>(SGX: U11) and <b>OCBC Ltd</b>(SGX: O39).</p><p>These banks have been through numerous boom and bust cycles over the decades and have weathered these crises just fine.</p><p><b>Singapore Exchange Limited</b>(SGX: S68) is another solid business as it has a natural monopoly, being the only bourse operator here.</p><p>These four stocks also pay out healthy dividends that can provide you with a stream of passive income as you wait for the storm clouds to clear up.</p><p>Meanwhile, you can also pepper your portfolio with recession-resistant companies.</p><p><b>Sheng Siong</b>(SGX: OV8) is a supermarket retailer with 66 stores that provide a comprehensive range of food products, household items and necessities.</p><p><b>Raffles Medical Group</b>(SGX: BSL) and <b>Q&M Dental Group</b>(SGX: QC7) should also see steady demand during a downturn as both companies provide essential medical and dental services, respectively.</p><h2><b>4.

Businesses with pricing powerInflation is a headache for consumers and businesses alike.But it’s easy to forget that businesses with strong brands can charge higher prices to offset this inflation without suffering a fall in demand.Such businesses have what is known as “pricing power” as they hold the dominant mind-share of customers within their respective industries.By loading up on shares of such stocks, they can help you offset the effects of inflation.Take VICOM(SGX: WJP) for instance.The vehicle inspection company has a market share of close to 75% and had just raised its car inspection prices on 1 November by 5% from S$64.20 to S$67.41.With vehicle inspection being a mandatory requirement, vehicle owners will be unable to dodge this price increase.VICOM should therefore not expect inspection volumes to fall.For another example, coffee chain Starbucks(NASDAQ: SBUX), which operates around 35,000 outlets worldwide, saw its revenue for fiscal 2022 (ending 30 September) rise 11% year on year to a record US$32.3 billion.On the company’s earnings call, it mentioned that prices have increased by 6% and yet it has not seen a corresponding fall in customer loyalty or transactions.Cruise company Norwegian Cruise Lines(NYSE: NCLH) has also raised its prices to pass on higher costs to its customers, while the owner of SPAM, Hormel Foods(NYSE: HRL), is also targeting price increases as it grapples with inflation.These US companies managed to raise their prices to counteract the effects of high inflation and with their strong market positions, investors can be confident that they can continue to do so.2. No or low debtSurging interest rates are a bane for homeowners as mortgage loans become more expensive.For corporations with debt, higher rates also mean increased borrowing costs that eat into profits.Investors, though, can eschew debt-heavy companies in favour of those with either low or no debt.Businesses with little or zero debt are safe from rising interest rates and will not suffer the same level of financial stress as companies stuffed with loans.VICOM is in the spotlight once again for this attribute.The company has a clean balance sheet with S$58.7 million of cash with zero debt as of 30 September.Human resource company HRNetGroup(SGX: CHZ) is another cash-rich company with S$312.7 million of cash and no debt as of 30 June.Meanwhile, Micro-Mechanics (Holdings)(SGX: 5DD), a designer and manufacturer of parts and tools used to assemble semiconductors, was sitting on S$25.3 million of cash and had no debt as of 30 September.For something more familiar, your favourite curry puff seller, Old Chang Kee(SGX: 5ML), held S$30.1 million of cash with just S$4.7 million of borrowings for its latest half-year results.3. Recession-proofing your portfolioA recession could be on the cards for Singapore in 2023.Rather than feeling worried, investors should treat recessions as a normal part of the economic cycle and not feel fearful.Such events should be viewed as opportunities to scoop up shares of solid businesses that have been beaten down.But if you’re worried as to whether a recession will adversely impact your investments, it’s a good idea to stick with tried and tested blue-chip names.Yes, I am talking about stocks such as the three local banks DBS Group(SGX: D05), United Overseas Bank(SGX: U11) and OCBC Ltd(SGX: O39).These banks have been through numerous boom and bust cycles over the decades and have weathered these crises just fine.Singapore Exchange Limited(SGX: S68) is another solid business as it has a natural monopoly, being the only bourse operator here.These four stocks also pay out healthy dividends that can provide you with a stream of passive income as you wait for the storm clouds to clear up.Meanwhile, you can also pepper your portfolio with recession-resistant companies.Sheng Siong(SGX: OV8) is a supermarket retailer with 66 stores that provide a comprehensive range of food products, household items and necessities.Raffles Medical Group(SGX: BSL) and Q&M Dental Group(SGX: QC7) should also see steady demand during a downturn as both companies provide essential medical and dental services, respectively.4. Resilient US growth stocksUS indices have suffered a sharp fall this year but there are still businesses there that continue to thrive.Visa(NYSE: V) reported a strong set of earnings for its fiscal 2022, with revenue rising 22% year on year to US$29.3 billion and net profit climbing 21% year on year to US$14.9 billion.Despite the pandemic, yoga apparel maker Lululemon(NASDAQ: LULU) saw its revenue climb from US$3.98 billion to US$6.26 billion from 2020 to 2022 (the company has a January year-end).In addition, net profit increased from US$645.6 million to US$975.3 million over the same period.It pays to be selective and focus on businesses that generate healthy profits and continued free cash flow as these can enable them to better tide through tough times.5. Keeping cash handyFinally, you should always keep a reasonable stash of cash to act as an opportunity fund.As the saying goes – you can’t predict, but you can prepare.No one knows how markets will fare next year as there are too many moving parts at play.Therefore, it’s useful to keep cash handy to take advantage of any sharp sell-downs so that you can pick up your favourite stocks.Here’s wishing everyone a Happy New Year and may your investments turn out to be fruitful!","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"D05.SI":0.9,"O39.SI":0.9,"U11.SI":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2264,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9950873519,"gmtCreate":1672731068831,"gmtModify":1676538727217,"author":{"id":"4111138233826472","authorId":"4111138233826472","name":"MacXzero","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/372d081febae7e255ef5fbf0e6230957","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4111138233826472","idStr":"4111138233826472"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9950873519","repostId":"621771613","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":621771613,"gmtCreate":1672729087934,"gmtModify":1676538727101,"author":{"id":"3570081676918603","authorId":"3570081676918603","name":"市值观察","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2ece02f8b6e557cbb0666cdb9048ec85","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3570081676918603","idStr":"3570081676918603"},"themes":[],"title":"漲停!民爆股爆了,新一輪大洗牌後誰能成爲真正巨頭?","htmlText":"

Investor","summary":"Stocks have taken a beating this year, to say the least. The S&P 500 is down around 19% year-to-date","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Stocks have taken a beating this year, to say the least. The S&P 500 is down around 19% year-to-date while the NASDAQ has slumped by around 30%. Many high-growth stocks have fallen even harder than that and it is not uncommon to find stocks that are down more than 80% this year.</p><p>While these declines are painful, a downturn in stock prices does provide a potential upside: The opportunity to conduct cheap buybacks. Low stock prices mean that companies can buy back their shares at relatively cheaper levels. When done at the right prices, share buybacks can be highly value-accretive for a company’s shareholders.</p><h3>Measuring the impact of share buybacks</h3><p>Buybacks reduce the number of shares outstanding. A company’s future cash flows are, hence, divided between fewer shares, leading to more cash flow per share in the future. But it comes at a cost. The cash that’s used to buy back stock could have been used to pay a dividend to shareholders instead. So how do share buybacks impact the long-term shareholder?</p><p>To better appreciate what happens when a company buys back its own stock, let’s examine a simple example. Let’s assume that Company A generates $100 in free cash flow per year for 10 years before it stops operating. The company has 100 shares outstanding, so it essentially generates $1 per share in free cash flow for 10 years. Let’s imagine two different scenarios.</p><p>In Scenario 1, Company A decides to pay all its free cash flow to shareholders each year. Hence, shareholders will receive $1 per share in dividends each year for 10 years. In Scenario 2, Company A decides that it wants to buy back its shares after the first year. Let’s say its stock price is $5. Therefore, Company A can use its $100 in free cash flow in year 1 to buy back and retire 20 shares, leaving just 80 shares outstanding. From year 2 onwards, Company A decides that it will start returning its cash flow to shareholders through dividends. The table below shows the dividends received by shareholders in the two different scenarios.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ba2826542212cf4ddcaab1c1e86e3b9f\" tg-width=\"606\" tg-height=\"152\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>In scenario 1, shareholders were paid $1 per share every year starting from the end of the first year. In scenario 2, shareholders were not paid a dividend at the end of the first year, but were paid more for each subsequent year.</p><p>We can measure the present value of the two streams of dividends using a discounted cash flow analysis. Using a 10% discount rate, the dividends in Scenarios 1 and 2 have a net present value of $6.14 and $6.54, per share, respectively. In Scenario 2, shareholders were rewarded with better value over the 10 year period even though they had to wait longer before they could receive dividends.</p><h3>When buybacks destroy value</h3><p>In the earlier example, Company A created value for shareholders by buying back shares at $5 a share.</p><p>But let’s now imagine a third scenario. In Scenario 3, Company A’s stock price is $7.50 and it decided to conduct a share buyback using all its cash flow generated after the first year. Company A, therefore, spent its first $100 in free cash flow to buy back 13 shares, leaving the company with 87 shares outstanding. The table below shows the dividends received in all three scenarios.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/182b60d92d67d7a671582e9668bb2308\" tg-width=\"840\" tg-height=\"260\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>In Scenario 3, because shares were bought back at a higher price, fewer shares were retired than in Scenario 2 (13 versus 20). As such, Company A’s dividend per share in subsequent years only increased to $1.15. The net present value of Scenario 3’s dividends, using the same 10% discount rate, is only $6.04. This is actually lower than in Scenario 1 when no buybacks were done.</p><p>This demonstrates that buybacks are only value-enhancing when done at the right price. If the required rate of return is 10%, buybacks in the example above should only be done below the net present value per share of $6.14 if no buybacks were done.</p><h3>Applying this to a real-world example</h3><p>We can use this framework to assess if companies are making the right decision to buy back their shares. Let’s use the video conferencing app provider Zoom (NASDAQ: ZM) as a case study. Zoom started buying back its shares this year even as its stock price tanked.</p><p>In the first three quarters of its fiscal year ending 31 January 2023 (FY2023), Zoom repurchased 11 million shares for US$991 million. This works out to an average share price of approximately US$90 per share.</p><p>The table below presents my estimate of Zoom’s future free cash flow per share. I made the following assumptions:</p><ul><li>Revenue grows at 10% for the first few years before growth tapers off slowly to 0% after 15 years.</li><li>The free cash flow margin improves from 27% currently to 45% over time.</li><li>Dilution from stock-based compensation is 3% a year</li><li>Zoom stops operating after 50 years</li><li>Its revenue starts to decline in the last seven years of its life</li></ul><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9a68d9163f9c0c407585d5c0657589da\" tg-width=\"840\" tg-height=\"363\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>The table above shows the free cash flow per share generated by Zoom in each year under the assumptions I’ve made. Using a 10% discount rate and including current cash on hand (that can be used for buybacks or returned as dividends) of around US$18 per share, Zoom’s net present value per share works out to around US$112.</p><p>Recall that Zoom was buying back its shares at an average price of US$90 a piece. Under my assumptions, Zoom’s buybacks are value-accretive to shareholders.</p><h3>Time to shine</h3><p>Buybacks can be tricky to analyse. Although buybacks delay the distribution of dividends, they can result in value accretion to shareholders if done at the right price. With the stock prices of many companies falling significantly this year, buybacks have become a potential source of value enhancement for shareholders.</p><p>But remember that not all buybacks are good. We need to assess if management is buying back shares because the shares are cheap or if they are doing it for the wrong reasons. With stock prices down and the capital markets tight, I believe that this is a time when good capital allocation is essential. A management team that is able to allocate capital efficiently will not only cause its company to survive the downturn but potentially create tons of value for shareholders.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1602567310727","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>When Should Companies Buy Back Their Shares?</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\">\nWhen Should Companies Buy Back Their Shares?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-12-26 15:18 GMT+8 <a href=https://thesmartinvestor.com.sg/when-should-companies-buy-back-their-shares/><strong>The Smart Investor</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Stocks have taken a beating this year, to say the least.

The S&P 500 is down around 19% year-to-date while the NASDAQ has slumped by around 30%. Many high-growth stocks have fallen even harder than that and it is not uncommon to find stocks that are down more than 80% this year.While these declines are painful, a downturn in stock prices does provide a potential upside: The opportunity to conduct cheap buybacks. Low stock prices mean that companies can buy back their shares at relatively cheaper levels. When done at the right prices, share buybacks can be highly value-accretive for a company’s shareholders.Measuring the impact of share buybacksBuybacks reduce the number of shares outstanding. A company’s future cash flows are, hence, divided between fewer shares, leading to more cash flow per share in the future. But it comes at a cost. The cash that’s used to buy back stock could have been used to pay a dividend to shareholders instead. So how do share buybacks impact the long-term shareholder?To better appreciate what happens when a company buys back its own stock, let’s examine a simple example. Let’s assume that Company A generates $100 in free cash flow per year for 10 years before it stops operating. The company has 100 shares outstanding, so it essentially generates $1 per share in free cash flow for 10 years. Let’s imagine two different scenarios.In Scenario 1, Company A decides to pay all its free cash flow to shareholders each year. Hence, shareholders will receive $1 per share in dividends each year for 10 years. In Scenario 2, Company A decides that it wants to buy back its shares after the first year. Let’s say its stock price is $5. Therefore, Company A can use its $100 in free cash flow in year 1 to buy back and retire 20 shares, leaving just 80 shares outstanding. From year 2 onwards, Company A decides that it will start returning its cash flow to shareholders through dividends. The table below shows the dividends received by shareholders in the two different scenarios.In scenario 1, shareholders were paid $1 per share every year starting from the end of the first year. In scenario 2, shareholders were not paid a dividend at the end of the first year, but were paid more for each subsequent year.We can measure the present value of the two streams of dividends using a discounted cash flow analysis. Using a 10% discount rate, the dividends in Scenarios 1 and 2 have a net present value of $6.14 and $6.54, per share, respectively. In Scenario 2, shareholders were rewarded with better value over the 10 year period even though they had to wait longer before they could receive dividends.When buybacks destroy valueIn the earlier example, Company A created value for shareholders by buying back shares at $5 a share.But let’s now imagine a third scenario. In Scenario 3, Company A’s stock price is $7.50 and it decided to conduct a share buyback using all its cash flow generated after the first year. Company A, therefore, spent its first $100 in free cash flow to buy back 13 shares, leaving the company with 87 shares outstanding. The table below shows the dividends received in all three scenarios.In Scenario 3, because shares were bought back at a higher price, fewer shares were retired than in Scenario 2 (13 versus 20). As such, Company A’s dividend per share in subsequent years only increased to $1.15. The net present value of Scenario 3’s dividends, using the same 10% discount rate, is only $6.04. This is actually lower than in Scenario 1 when no buybacks were done.This demonstrates that buybacks are only value-enhancing when done at the right price. If the required rate of return is 10%, buybacks in the example above should only be done below the net present value per share of $6.14 if no buybacks were done.Applying this to a real-world exampleWe can use this framework to assess if companies are making the right decision to buy back their shares.

class.</p><p>However, REITs continue to be suitable for income-seeking investors as they are mandated to pay out at least 90% of their earnings as distributions.</p><p>REIT investors have relied on this asset class for steady dividends throughout the years, and though the sector is facing headwinds, this aspect is unlikely to change.</p><p>The good news is that REIT managers are not sitting ducks and can employ a variety of methods to ensure that their distribution per unit (DPU) is protected.</p><p>These include acquisitions to boost DPU as well as positive rental reversions, redevelopments, and asset enhancement initiatives (AEI).</p><p>With these measures at their disposal, REITs can not only mitigate a drop in DPU but could also report a higher one next year.</p><p>Here are four REITs that could increase their DPU in 2023.</p><p><b>Digital Core REIT (SGX: DCRU)</b></p><p>Digital Core REIT, or DCR, is a data centre REIT with a portfolio of 10 fully-occupied data centres worth US$1.4 billion as of 30 September 2022.</p><p>These properties are located in Canada and the US and have a weighted average lease expiry of five years.</p><p>The newly-listed REIT paid out its maiden distribution of US$0.0206 for its fiscal 2022’s first half (1H2022).</p><p>DCR is also anchored by a strong sponsor in the US-listed <b>Digital Realty Trust</b>(NYSE: DLR) which owns more than 300 data centres globally along with 4,000+ customers.</p><p>The REIT had just concluded the acquisition of a 25% interest in a Frankfurt data centre for US$146 million, with 1H2022 DPU rising by a projected 2% to US$0.021.</p><p>DCR’s aggregate leverage is expected to rise to 33% after this purchase, allowing the REIT to continue tapping on debt for future acquisitions.</p><p>DCR has a global right-of-first-refusal on around 250 data centres of its sponsor with a pipeline that could eventually increase its portfolio to around US$15 billion.</p><p><b>Mapletree Pan Asia Commercial Trust (SGX: N2IU)</b></p><p>Mapletree Pan Asia Commercial Trust, or MPACT, is a retail cum commercial REIT with a portfolio of 18 properties in key markets such as Hong Kong, Singapore, China, Japan, and South Korea.</p><p>The REIT’s assets under management (AUM) stood at S$16.9 billion as of 30 September 2022 with a committed occupancy rate of 96.9%.</p><p>MPACT’s DPU rose 12.5% year on year to S$0.0494 for its fiscal 2023’s first half (1H2023) as gross revenue and net property income both surged by 44.9% year on year.</p><p>Investors can look forward to higher contributions from MPACT’s key Hong Kong retail asset, Festival Walk, as China relaxes its strict COVID-zero policy.</p><p>Festival Walk contributed around 11.7% of 1H2023’s NPI and a recovery in tenant sales and footfall could bring in better rental income for the REIT.</p><p>MPACT also has its “4R” asset and capital management strategy (recharge, resilience, reconstitute, refocus) that should see growth in South Korea and capital recycling in Japan.</p><p><b>CapitaLand Ascendas REIT (SGX: A17U)</b></p><p>CapitaLand Ascendas REIT, or CLAR, is an industrial REIT with a portfolio of 226 properties worth S$16.5 billion as of 30 September 2022.</p><p>The REIT had announced a 2.8% year on year increase in its DPU to S$0.07873 for 1H2022.</p><p>As of 3Q2022, CLAR reported a high occupancy rate of 94.5% with a positive rental reversion of 5.4%.</p><p>The industrial REIT is active with acquisitions and announced S$296.7 million worth of purchases during the quarter.</p><p>With an aggregate leverage of 37.3% and a low cost of debt of 2.2%, CLAR is well-positioned to make more yield-accretive acquisitions.</p><p>The REIT also has a slew of ongoing projects such as redevelopments and AEIs totalling S$622.4 million that should boost rental income over time.</p><p><b>Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust (SGX: BUOU)</b></p><p>Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust, or FLCT, owns a portfolio of 105 industrial and commercial properties across five countries with an AUM of approximately S$6.7 billion as of 30 September 2022 (FY2022).</p><p>The REIT had reported a slight 0.8% year on year dip in its DPU to S$0.0762 for FY2022 due to the divestment of Cross Street Exchange and weaker exchange rates.</p><p>However, there is good reason to believe that FLCT’s DPU can increase in FY2023.</p><p>The REIT’s gearing stood at just 27.4% as of 30 September 2022, providing it with a debt headroom of S$3.2 billion for future acquisitions.</p><p>Furthermore, FLCT has close to 82% of its borrowings at fixed rates, thereby mitigating a sharp increase in finance costs.</p><p>Management has also demonstrated its capital recycling savvy by divesting Cross Street Exchange at a 28.3% premium to its book value.</p><p>A leasehold property in Melbourne was also divested at nearly double its original book value during FY2022.</p><p>For its fourth quarter of FY2022, FLCT also executed 23 leasing transactions that saw a positive rental reversion of 9.8%.</p><p>These factors should stand the REIT in good stead to improve its DPU for FY2023.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1602567310727","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta

income-seeking investors as they are mandated to pay out at least 90% of their earnings as distributions.REIT investors have relied on this asset class for steady dividends throughout the years, and though the sector is facing headwinds, this aspect is unlikely to change.The good news is that REIT managers are not sitting ducks and can employ a variety of methods to ensure that their distribution per unit (DPU) is protected.These include acquisitions to boost DPU as well as positive rental reversions, redevelopments, and asset enhancement initiatives (AEI).With these measures at their disposal, REITs can not only mitigate a drop in DPU but could also report a higher one next year.Here are four REITs that could increase their DPU in 2023.Digital Core REIT (SGX: DCRU)Digital Core REIT, or DCR, is a data centre REIT with a portfolio of 10 fully-occupied data centres worth US$1.4 billion as of 30 September 2022.These properties are located in Canada and the US and have a weighted average lease expiry of five years.The newly-listed REIT paid out its maiden distribution of US$0.0206 for its fiscal 2022’s first half (1H2022).DCR is also anchored by a strong sponsor in the US-listed Digital Realty Trust(NYSE: DLR) which owns more than 300 data centres globally along with 4,000+ customers.The REIT had just concluded the acquisition of a 25% interest in a Frankfurt data centre for US$146 million, with 1H2022 DPU rising by a projected 2% to US$0.021.DCR’s aggregate leverage is expected to rise to 33% after this purchase, allowing the REIT to continue tapping on debt for future acquisitions.DCR has a global right-of-first-refusal on around 250 data centres of its sponsor with a pipeline that could eventually increase its portfolio to around US$15 billion.Mapletree Pan Asia Commercial Trust (SGX: N2IU)Mapletree Pan Asia Commercial Trust, or MPACT, is a retail cum commercial REIT with a portfolio of 18 properties in key markets such as Hong Kong, Singapore, China, Japan, and South Korea.The REIT’s assets under management (AUM) stood at S$16.9 billion as of 30 September 2022 with a committed occupancy rate of 96.9%.MPACT’s DPU rose 12.5% year on year to S$0.0494 for its fiscal 2023’s first half (1H2023) as gross revenue and net property income both surged by 44.9% year on year.Investors can look forward to higher contributions from MPACT’s key Hong Kong retail asset, Festival Walk, as China relaxes its strict COVID-zero policy.Festival Walk contributed around 11.7% of 1H2023’s NPI and a recovery in tenant sales and footfall could bring in better rental income for the REIT.MPACT also has its “4R” asset and capital management strategy (recharge, resilience, reconstitute, refocus) that should see growth in South Korea and capital recycling in Japan.CapitaLand Ascendas REIT (SGX: A17U)CapitaLand Ascendas REIT, or CLAR, is an industrial REIT with a portfolio of 226 properties worth S$16.5 billion as of 30 September 2022.The REIT had announced a 2.8% year on year increase in its DPU to S$0.07873 for 1H2022.As of 3Q2022, CLAR reported a high occupancy rate of 94.5% with a positive rental reversion of 5.4%.The industrial REIT is active with acquisitions and announced S$296.7 million worth of purchases during the quarter.With an aggregate leverage of 37.3% and a low cost of debt of 2.2%, CLAR is well-positioned to make more yield-accretive acquisitions.The REIT also has a slew of ongoing projects such as redevelopments and AEIs totalling S$622.4 million that should boost rental income over time.Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust (SGX: BUOU)Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust, or FLCT, owns a portfolio of 105 industrial and commercial properties across five countries with an AUM of approximately S$6.7 billion as of 30 September 2022 (FY2022).The REIT had reported a slight 0.8% year on year dip in its DPU to S$0.0762 for FY2022 due to the divestment of Cross Street Exchange and weaker exchange rates.However, there is good reason to believe that FLCT’s DPU can increase in FY2023.The REIT’s gearing stood at just 27.4% as of 30 September 2022, providing it with a debt headroom of S$3.2 billion for future acquisitions.Furthermore, FLCT has close to 82% of its borrowings at fixed rates, thereby mitigating a sharp increase in finance costs.Management has also demonstrated its capital recycling savvy by divesting Cross Street Exchange at a 28.3% premium to its book value.A leasehold property in Melbourne was also divested at nearly double its original book value during FY2022.For its fourth quarter of FY2022, FLCT also executed 23 leasing transactions that saw a positive rental reversion of 9.8%.These factors should stand the REIT in good stead to improve its DPU for FY2023.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"A17U.SI":0.9,"N2IU.SI":0.9,"DCRU.SI":0.9,"BUOU.SI":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3188,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9921326897,"gmtCreate":1670981059919,"gmtModify":1676538470267,"author":{"id":"4111138233826472","authorId":"4111138233826472","name":"MacXzero","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/372d081febae7e255ef5fbf0e6230957","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4111138233826472","idStr":"4111138233826472"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9921326897","repostId":"1103026107","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1103026107","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1670980761,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1103026107?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-12-14

HighlightsShopify, whose shares have taken a hit this year along with most other e-commerce stocks, may have a bull case brewing.Cloud-based e-commerce platform provider Shopify (TSE:SHOP) (NYSE:SHOP) was not spared from the headwinds that rocked the broader industry this year. Shares of Shopify are down around 66% this year, leading the Canadian stock market to be on track to end the year lower than it began. However, fear not – this might be a great opportunity to accumulate shares of the downtrodden stock.Shopify’s sell-off began in November last year, mostly as a result of events beyond Shopify’s control. Software stock valuations had gotten too high and would inevitably snap. Moreover, the first year of the pandemic boosted the growth of e-commerce businesses manifold as a result of lockdowns and social distancing rules.Once economies started to normalize across the globe, the watershed began to subside, resulting in tough comparisons. However, investors are highly driven by emotion and began selling off Shopify shares as soon as the difficult comparisons started to reflect in the company’s quarterly financials.Yet, Shopify is still the go-to e-commerce platform for small and medium-sized businesses and is even a significant threat to the market share of e-commerce giant Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN). The decline could be a great buying opportunity for long-term gains, as the shares seem to be oversold at the current price.Recently, SMBC Nikko analyst Andrew Bauch reiterated a Buy rating on SHOP stock and raised the price target to $45 from $40, saying that the stock has the potential to pull up sales and margin simultaneously in 2023. He is particularly upbeat about the evolution of Shopify’s Payment strategy and believes it to be one of the best emerging opportunities for the company to thrive.Is Shopify a Buy, Sell, or Hold?Shopify has a Moderate Buy consensus rating on Wall Street, with an average price target of C$55.89.Bottom-LineA solid business model, popularity with SMBs, and upbeat demand trends strongly indicate that a recovery in shares may be on the horizon. When the macroeconomic backdrop improves, Shopify stands to be one of the biggest beneficiaries of the spike in demand. All these arguments create a strong bull case for Shopify.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"SHOP":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1956,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9923122763,"gmtCreate":1670812043452,"gmtModify":1676538438337,"author":{"id":"4111138233826472","authorId":"4111138233826472","name":"MacXzero","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/372d081febae7e255ef5fbf0e6230957","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4111138233826472","idStr":"4111138233826472"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","text":"$NIO Inc.(NIO)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9923122763","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2079,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9929457254,"gmtCreate":1670724045078,"gmtModify":1676538423223,"author":{"id":"4111138233826472","authorId":"4111138233826472","name":"MacXzero","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/372d081febae7e255ef5fbf0e6230957","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4111138233826472","idStr":"4111138233826472"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/AMZN\">$Amazon.com(AMZN)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/AMZN\">$Amazon.com(AMZN)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>","text":"$Amazon.com(AMZN)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9929457254","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2369,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9929176257,"gmtCreate":1670632535680,"gmtModify":1676538407746,"author":{"id":"4111138233826472","authorId":"4111138233826472","name":"MacXzero","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/372d081febae7e255ef5fbf0e6230957","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4111138233826472","idStr":"4111138233826472"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSM\">$Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSM\">$Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","text":"$Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9929176257","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3274,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"defaultTab":"posts","isTTM":true}
