2024.05.21 16:34 Impossible_444 Newell Brands (NWL) Q24 Earnings Call Takeaways (from EarningsDigest.ai)
Newell Brands' first quarter 2024 revenue came in at $1.7 billion, representing a net sales decline of 8% year-over-year. However, core sales performance improved sequentially, with a decline of 4.7% compared to a 9.3% decline in the previous quarter. The company saw green shoots with three businesses - Baby, Writing, and Commercial - returning to core sales growth. CEO Chris Peterson highlighted the progress made on the new business development front, which contributed to distribution gains and ultimately positively impacted the core sales performance.
Normalized gross margin and operating margin saw significant improvement, expanding by 410 basis points and 220 basis points versus the prior year, reaching 31.2% and 4.6%, respectively. This marked the third consecutive quarter of normalized gross margin improvement and the second straight quarter of normalized operating margin expansion. The company attributed this positive margin performance to savings from productivity initiatives, favorable mix and pricing, as well as the impact of organizational realignment and Project Phoenix.
The Writing business unit exhibited strong potential for market share gains with an improved innovation pipeline and strategic marketing efforts. The Baby business showed signs of stability and growth potential, while the Commercial segment continued its upward trajectory. These improvements were driven by strategic shifts in focus, such as pivoting towards outdoor activities in the Coleman business and enhancing the leadership team in the Outdoor and Recreation division. International markets also played a significant role, with pricing actions offsetting inflation and currency movements to contribute to core sales performance.
For the second quarter, Newell Brands expects core sales to decline by 4% to 6%, with net sales anticipated to decrease by 7% to 9%. The company forecasts normalized operating margin of 9.1% to 9.6% for Q2, reflecting a flat to up 50 basis points versus the previous year. CEO Chris Peterson emphasized the commitment to putting more advertising and promotion dollars behind consumer-led product innovations, indicating a slight uptick in A&P spending and an increase in interest expense. The full-year outlook remains consistent, with projected core sales decline of 3% to 6% and normalized operating margin of 7.8% to 8.2%.
The call also highlighted several risks, including: 1/ Consumer Discretionary Spending Pressures: The company notes that categories in which it competes remain under pressure due to consumers managing their discretionary spend more carefully. This cautious consumer spending behavior is attributed to the cumulative impact of inflation on essentials like food, energy, and housing costs, outpacing wage growth.
2/ Supply Chain Inflation and Foreign Exchange Headwinds: While Newell Brands has made progress in gross margin improvement by focusing on more profitable parts of the portfolio, they face ongoing challenges with input cost inflation (notably labor, overhead, and resin) and significant foreign exchange headwinds. The company expects a two- to three-point impact on core sales from FX issues, and although they have managed to offset much of this with pricing strategies, particularly in international markets, continued volatility in commodity prices and currency rates poses risks to margins and profitability.
3/ Dependency on Successful New Product Launches: A considerable part of the company’s strategy for growth involves launching new top-tier innovations and engaging in robust marketing campaigns. While initial launches such as Sharpie Creative Markers and Paper Mate InkJoy Gel Bright Pens have been successful, there is an inherent risk in relying heavily on future product innovations to drive growth.

2024.05.21 16:32 Inevitable-Extent-32 Backtesting Leveraged S&P500 investing in real and simulated markets.
| I've recently discovered and taken fascination with daily leveraged ETFs such as SPXL. I've read multiple times that leveraged daily investments are not good for long term due to risk, volatility decay, and high expense ratios. However, based on my backtesting and simulation analysis I want to challenge this assumption. First image: 50 years of hypothetical leveraged S&P500 ETF investing. Here you can see that 3x leverage produces the highest return over that time period. Of course different investment periods will provide vastly different results. Here is a list of graphs of 25 year long leveraged investments starting Jan 1st each year since 1960: https://github.com/Justintc217/portfolio/blob/masteLeverage%20Analysis/leverage%20over%2025%20years%20log.pdf And here is my code that generated these graphs: https://github.com/Justintc217/portfolio/blob/masteLeverage%20Analysis/snp500%20long%20term%20leveraged%20results%20graphs.ipynb Based on these results, it appears that leveraged investing pays off at the end of 25 years in most cases. Second image: I created 10,000 virtual markets for 25 year periods. Each virtual market has an average daily gain rate. The average virtual market has an average daily gain of 0.307% which is the same as the S&P500. They also have the same standard deviation as the S&P500. The virtual markets are distributed across percentiles on the x axis and logarithmic returns after 25 years on the y-axis. Refer to the third image for tabular details. Based on these virtual markets it appears that results are very sensitive to average daily returns. In many cases 3x leverage and even 2x leverage perform quite poorly compared to an unleveraged ETF in markets with lower, but still positive, daily average returns. However, leveraged investments may still be worth it since they have the potential for outsized returns in good markets with potentially <100x returns. Which is just crazy. Bringing things back to reality looking at SPXL compared to SPY: https://preview.redd.it/lqyectnbds1d1.png?width=669&format=png&auto=webp&s=ed811900414c754c4dafba8b50993cb8978265f5 Starting from November 2008 we see SPXL gives 43x returns (even while factoring decay and expenses) whereas SPY only gives 5x returns. Of course, the last 15 years has been a fairly great bull market so this may not be a good baseline for future market movements. All that being said, here is my conclusion: 1. Daily Leveraged ETFs are quite risky 2. 2x leverage is often much more stable and profitable than 3x or 4x leverage even in light bull markets. It's only in strong bull markets where 3x leverage outperforms 2x. I would never recommend 4x leveraged investing. 3. While volatility decay is problematic we also need to recognize the amazing power of compounding returns. If market growth in the long run is fairly positive as it has been in the last 50 years, then the positives of compounding returns can certainly outweigh the cost of volatility decay. 4. YOLO. Ultimately long term leveraged investing is buying a lotto ticket. There is a reasonable chance your investment is wasted. However, if things do go well, you have the potential for an amazing cash out. And odds are much much better than the lottery, on average at least making your investment back. I'm a 28m and my portfolio is mostly SPY ETF at the moment. I've grown tired of stock picking :P. I'm now considering investing 40% of my current portfolio into SPUU (2x leverage) and 10% into SPXL and holding for 20+ years.

2024.05.21 15:58 adrlev Fibroids and Omnitrope
For those of you who have fibroids and took Omnitrope during stims, did it cause your fibroids to grow?
It has been added as part of my stim protocol for my third retrieval but I'm very hesitant to take it due to my history of fibroid tumors. One of the side effects listed is potential growth of tumors. I had a myomectomy last year to remove 14 fibroids, the largest was the size of a cantaloupe. I'm lucky that my surgeon was able to save my uterus. My uterus probably wouldn't survive another myomectomy though.
About me: almost 41, AMH 2.37, mini protocol (200 follistim, 20 units low dose hcg, ganirelix, dual trigger with 10,000hcg and Lupron)
Round 1 - (only one ovary accessible because of a fibroid) 9 eggs retrieved, 2 mature - both fertilized and frozen day 3
Round 2 - after myomectomy - 16 eggs retrieved, 3 mature - all 3 fertilized and frozen day 3.
I believe the low maturity rate is a trigger timing issue. My clinic tends to trigger patients on the early side. I will push them to wait until follicles are at least 18mm for upcoming round.
Would omni help with maturity? Is the potential benefit of omnitrope worth the risk if you're prone to fibroids?

2024.05.21 15:55 HeheheBlah How is time perceived in Telugu?
I came across this
Quora answer for "Why does Kerala Government impose an economically worthless Malayalam in Kerala schools instead of making it as an optional language because a Malayali cannot get lucrative employment by learning Malayalam?" from this
post.
This question reminds me of a story of the Roman emperor Vespasian. One day, an inventor visited the emperor and showed him the blueprint of a mechanism that could transport columns and beams to a construction site quickly and without any manual labor. This brilliant machine could've kickstarted industrial revolution 1700 years before it actually happened. But much to the inventor's shock, Vespasian turned him down, saying “my people need jobs, our slaves need jobs. If the machine does all the work, our people will be jobless. Our slaves would get free time to organize themselves and would start revolts”.
Vespasian feared that the new technology was ‘economically worthless', as it would make people and slaves jobless and send the country into total chaos. In short, he was technologically shortsighted. The inability to foresee what technology could bring to his people in the long run pulled him down. He was deluded by the fragile nature of the economy and had no idea how to rebuild it if this revolutionary mechanism would be allowed to operate.
This was the reason why ancient Rome was never industrialized, despite having a lot of excellent inventors and engineers. Those in power were worried about the unemployment a sudden revolutionary idea would create and failed to accept how beneficial this would be for the people in the long run.
The reason for narrating this story is that it is remarkably similar to the dilemma mentioned in the question. Vespasian thought, “allocating resources to inventive technology instead of manual labor is economically worthless since people and slaves won't get lucrative jobs”.
Replace ‘manual labor' by ‘English' and ‘inventive technology' by ‘Malayalam', and you get our question.
“Allocating resources to English instead of Malayalam is economically worthless since people and slaves won't get lucrative jobs”.
Likewise, English persists as the language of official usage for most jobs not because Malayalam is incompetent or inefficient, but because the current ‘system' revolves around English. That makes Malayalam seem like a burden on students, with no economic worth. An engineer who does all his learning from foreign textbooks and uses English terminology has no lucrative use of Malayalam. A software developer who needs to know all computer-related terms in English has no use of Malayalam. The same goes for an accountant, a doctor, a clerk, and pretty much all ‘white collar' jobs you can think of. Even those who might benefit from learning Malayalam like historians or linguists might consider English infinitely more useful since most of the written books and research work on those fields are in English. There is enough reason for people to think that spending government resources for teaching Malayalam is worthless like how Vespasian thought that appreciating technology was worthless.
But time proved Vespasian wrong, although by sheer luck. Christianity replaced Paganism as the dominant religion in Europe. Since slavery is forbidden in Christianity, European kingdoms started banning it. Feudalism and class based labor also started declining as the plague wiped out significant fractions of each class and as the military shifted from armies to professional fighters, thereby weakening the nobility’s hold on power. With the lack of a powerful ruling class to impose and manage heavy manual labor, the stage was finally set for a technological revolution and the industrial revolution finally began in Europe, 1700 years after Vespasian.
Some of you might be doubtful of comparing the case of English vs Malayalam with manual labor vs automated machines. Are they even comparable in the first place?
Industrial revolution made life easier for people because it freed people from the heavy manual labor and made it possible for them to spend more time for their personal development. Likewise, teaching in Malayalam instead of English would make people engage more with their personal and cultural lives. Teaching lessons of science and history in English forbids Malayalis from using them in their lives. This is because these two languages are different at a fundamental level since they belong to two different language families. If you are a Malayalam speaker and you learn science and history in English, it'll be impossible for you to use them in your daily lives because you conceptualize the world around you in completely different ways while you speak or think in these two languages. In linguistics, this changing of cognitive metaphors while using different languages is known as code-switching.
Let me share my own experience. I studied in Malayalam medium in primary and high school. Hence my way of understanding science and history is through Malayalam's (or Dravidian) cognitive metaphors. Those who study in English or other related languages like German, Persian or Hindi would use the Indo-European cognitive metaphors. Once I started reading books in English, I started to realize how different these are.
Let us take time for example.
How an English speaker views time
Speakers of Indo-European languages like English and Hindi conceptualize time as a long line through which you move at a steady rate. Your past is the segment behind you and your future lies in front of you. Time is a one-dimensional straight line in Indo-European languages (the only exceptions are Italic and Hellenic branches. They see time as a growing volume instead of a long line).
This is why these languages describe the duration of events as either “long” or “short”, which represent the length of a line segment.
Consider the statement “I've been waiting for a long time”.
The italicised part, translated into different Indo-European languages would be:
English (Germanic) : “ long time”
Sanskrit (Indo-Aryan) : “dīrghakāla”
Hindi (Indo-Aryan) : “lambi der”
Persian (Iranian) : “moddat zamân tulâni”
Lithuanian (Baltic) : “ilgas laikas”
Irish (Celtic) : “tamall fada”
All those words indicated with bold letters are synonym for “long”. The same could be observed for events with less duration. All these languages use the adjective “short”, just as what you might expect from their way of perceiving time as a horizontal line.
Hence many words describing events associated with time like emotions in these languages are derived from roots that mean “long” or “short”. The English words “longing” (from ‘long') and “hope” (ultimately from Greek ‘kúptō' (to bend forward) ) are examples.
(By the way, there are two slightly different variants of the Indo-European concept of time. This video explains it beautifully with a riddle)
.
How a Malayalam speaker views time
Speakers of Dravidian languages like Malayalam have a much more sophisticated three-dimensional view of time. For Malayalis, the passage of time is vertically upwards, not to the front. Also, time isn't a single line here. Multiple vertical lines of progression of time arise from the two dimensional patches of land. In Malayalam, this two-dimensional ‘area' or patch of time is known as “pāḍu” (പാട്) which literally means “a bounded area” (hence the adjectives like “orupāḍu” and “appāḍe”). Related events that take place at a particular location are visualized as multiple vertical lines growing from that patch. A different place or a different person would be visualized as a different patch with its own vertical growths.
You have to be a Dravidian speaker to fully understand this. Imagine a set of events.
If it is the same event occurring over and over again, it is perceived as looping around a small vertical segment over and over again. In Malayalam language, this corresponds to the adjective ഒത്തിരി (ottiri) - literally “many turns/loops” (root ‘tiru' - turn/spin).
If that set of events represent a growing process or emotion, it is perceived as a line that grows vertically. In Malayalam, the adjective in this case is ഏറെ (ēṟe) - literally “climbing up/ascending” or വളരെ (vaḷare) -literally “growing upwards”.
If those events are concurrent yet different, they are perceived as multiple vertical growths originating from the same patch on the plane. In Malayalam, the adjective is ഒരുപാടു (orupāḍu) - literally “an area of” (‘pāḍu' - a bounded area).
If those events are completely independent, then they exist in different patches and the adjective പല (pala) is used.
In short, a Malayalam speaker has four different ways of translating something like “a long time”, depending on how the person spent that time. If they spent that time by counting sea waves, they might say “ottiri nēram”. If the time was spent, say, by building a sand castle, they might say “ēṟe nēram”, and if they were doing many different things, they might say “orupāḍu nēram”.
This is true in the case of other Dravidian languages as well. For example, in Kannada, the word ಪಿರಿ (piri) - heightened/advanced - (now mostly displaced by the loanword ಬಹಳ (bahaḷa)) would correspond to Malayalam “ēṟe” and ತುಂಬಾ (tumbā) - literally, a crowd of/amassed - would correspond to Malayalam “orupāḍu”. A Kannada speaker would say “bahaḷa samaya” for the time spent for building a sand castle and “tumbā samaya” for the time spent for doing multiple things
(However, in some Dravidian languages, this way of visualizing time has been replaced by the Indo-European linear time because of Sanskrit imperialism. But that is a different story.)
In short, as a Malayalam speaker, I conceptualize my entire life in front of me. My brain visualizes all the places I've been to and the people I've interacted with as different patches (pāḍu), each one having multiple vertical segments that grow or add a new one each time I visit again. However, when I speak or learn in English or Hindi, it is completely changed and I'm forced to visualize time and events to be part of a long line with my past behind me and my future in front of me. This switching of conceptual metaphors is known as code-switching in cognitive linguistics.
This means that I as a bilingual describe an event that happened the day before yesterday as “two days back” in English and “raṇḍụ nāḷ munpu” in Malayalam. Here, “munpu” means “frontside” and back means, backside. For an English speaker, the past lies as the line segment behind them (back), and for a Malayalam speaker, the past is a patch that is much further to the front than the one they are in at present. Notice how the concept of past flips completely with the change of language.
Think of English's concept of time as a long railway track with a train (representing the person) passing through it and Malayalam’s concept of time as a sugarcane field with multiple patches of land having a bunch of upwards growing stems.
The reason for describing all this is to highlight how different the perception of events are in these two languages. And remember that we have considered only time. Nearly all abstract concepts are visualized differently in unrelated languages. A Dravidian’s world is completely different from that of an Indo-European.
Now let us come back to the original question. What happens if a Malayalam speaker is given education only in English? The result is, they could never use the science and history they learn in their personal and cultural lives. Personal and cultural aspects would be pictured in one way and things that they learn at school would be visualized in the other way. This means that all those things would be useful only for earning money or doing research and they would be useless for their personal growth and the cultural development of the society.
In fact, this is exactly what is happening in Kerala now. All those highly educated people conceptualize the world in the Indo-European way thanks to being educated in English or sanskrit-imposed Malayalam while the common people view the world with the classic Dravidian metaphors. This stunts the growth in cultural, political, religious and scientific fileds in Kerala.
Not to mention that English's concept of time is much too simple and inefficient for describing things and when it comes to fields intricately connected to time like history or biological evolution, it often fails miserably. I recently wrote an an answer on how the public perception of evolution is incorrect and horribly misleading. In fact, the visualization of time as a simple long line is one of the reasons for this. This metaphor is much too simple to handle a complex probabilistic theory like evolution.
However, for someone who learned evolution in Malayalam, it would be a much more sophisticated process and it would be easier to visualize it without being misguided. Learning in Malayalam is much more efficient and productive in this case. I consider myself lucky for having had most of my schooling in Malayalam medium thanks to which I routinely apply the things I've learned in all aspects of my life.
So, to summarize,
Malayalam being economically worthless is a reality of the present, but it is not so because Malayalam is inefficient or unproductive in usage. As we saw here, educating in Malayalam is actually necessary for the learned things to be put into practice in life and society. It is just that the current system uses English and a total change would require nothing less than a revolution. Nevertheless, the cost of not educating kids in Malayalam is huge, as it leads to a stagnation in cultural, religious, political, and scientific aspects of Kerala.
--END OF THE ANSWER--
I wanted to share this answer here too and wanted to discuss about its points (specifically how different people view time).
How Telugu language and Telugus view time? Does it differ by dialects? Did Sanskrit influence this part of Telugu? What other things does Telugu perceive in a different manner compared to other languages?
This means that I as a bilingual describe an event that happened the day before yesterday as “two days back” in English and “raṇḍụ nāḷ munpu” in Malayalam. Here, “munpu” means “frontside” and back means, backside.
The only aspect I recognised which I use in Telugu like "rendu dinalu mundu" (Two days ago).

2024.05.21 15:54 Mr_We-Wealth_Expert **What's Happening in the Canadian Housing Market Right Now? (2024)**
| There has been an interesting shift happening in Canada's housing market recently. According to the latest report from the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA), the number of active listings across the country has surged for the third consecutive month in April 2024. This increase in inventory levels has resulted in the national market becoming the most balanced it has been since before the COVID-19 pandemic struck. Here are some of the key details: **Home Prices Stable** The National Composite Home Price Index remained flat from March to April, showing a third straight month of price stability. On a year-over-year basis, the index dipped just 0.9% - the first decline since last July. The actual national benchmark home price in April 2024 was $719,400 - unmoved from March but down a modest 0.6% compared to April 2023. **Sales Down Slightly** While new listings rose 2.8% month-over-month in April, contributing to the 6.5% jump in total inventory levels, home sales activity dipped by 1.7% between March and April 2024. However, sales were only slightly below the 10-year average. **Balanced Market Conditions** As April ended, the national sales-to-new-listings ratio eased to 53.4%, just shy of the 55% threshold that represents a balanced housing market. A range between 45-65% is considered a balanced zone, whereas higher ratios signal a seller's market and lower ratios indicate buyers' market conditions. **Rare Opportunity for Buyers** CREA's new chair highlighted that this spring market represents a rare advantage for buyers who have been largely shut out in recent years: "Mortgage rates are still high, and it remains difficult for a lot of people to break into the market but, for those who can, it's the first spring market in some time where they can shop around, take their time and exercise some bargaining power." However, he cautioned that it's hard to say how long this window of opportunity will last given the underlying demand. **Regional Variations** While new listings surged across most markets, a few areas like London/St. Thomas, Saskatoon and Niagara bucked the trend. Home prices also declined more steeply in Victoria (-2.2%), Newfoundland/Labrador (-1.3%) and the Fraser Valley (-0.7%). In summary, after years of extremely tight conditions and scorching price growth, Canada's housing market has achieved a rare balanced state in early 2024. Buyers currently have more inventory to choose from and a bit more negotiating power, though high mortgage rates remain an obstacle. How long this window lasts remains to be seen.

Let’s imagine this story. Build an awesome store, start your marketing campaigns and waiting the sales. Then you saw people are adding products to their cart but leaving their cart without buying anything. This is what we call
cart abandonment. When you turn these abandoners to customer, it’s what we call
abandoned cart recoveryLet’s imagine this story. Build an awesome store, start your marketing campaigns and waiting the sales. Then you saw people are adding products to their cart but leaving their cart without buying anything. This is what we call
cart abandonment. When you turn these abandoners to customer, it’s what we call
abandoned cart recovery.
Common Solutions for Cart Recovery
First I want to mention most common strategies for Shopify cart recovery.
1. Cart Recovery Emails
You can send emails to people who leave their cart without completing their order. Best part is Shopify offer a native way for it. Even some third party apps like Klaviyo, Mailchimp, offer this solution most of the time we continue with Shopify’s own native solution.
Choose how much time you wait before sending cart recovery emails and send them an email to complete their order right away.
Most common practice is putting a discount in these emails for coming back and completing the order. We don’t recommend that, you’ll see the why later.
2. Re-marketing Campaigns
Create custom audiences based on events on Meta and Google. Most of the time we use events for creating these audiences.
Create segments for visitors that has performed “checkout begin” event but not “purchase”.
3. Text Campaigns
If you’re collecting number of your visitors, you can use these data for cart recovery, too. You can start text messages like emails to bring back your visitors to store and complete their orders.
What is Missing
First you need to understand what makes your visitors to leave the checkout process. This is why it’s important to understand your funnel data.
Sending emails, texts and re-marketing for checkout abandoners help you to focus on visitors who started checkout but not completed.
However there are a greater potential in people who adds at least one product to their cart but leave the store.
After working with 300+ Shopify stores, one of the most common reason behind this behavior is
POSTPONING buying decision.
People like your products, want to buy it someday but just not today. When you think yourself, it’s quite natural, right?
If you’re not looking for something urgent to you, you can postpone it easily.
This is why we built Growth Suite.

2024.05.21 15:05 UltimateTraders 5/21/2024 Daily Plays PANW is a valuation problem, growth is falling into low Teens, may buy the dip on ZM Did bid on CAR ACMR may try MTCH and SOFI at first analysts expected ZIM to lose 83 cents now they made 75 cents, shocked rate was 1,452 but they made a profit! Watching!
Good morning everyone. Going to call the mayor of the small town about 10AM. First time I ever watched a meeting from the town. It was 7PM last night. They covered many topics but when it came to the piece of land I would like… the members of the committee, 9 people did not want to sell it… They spoke about turning it into a brand new police station. At the moment in the police station is in a basement, shared with a town building. It is a good idea actually…however, that property has sat empty since it was a bank in 2016!! The town has no money to fix that old building and restore it into a brand new police station… 5 million????
So I will call with some ideas. The town needs money badly after I watched the meeting. I no longer will ask or a tax abatement, I will ask a capped tax for 20-30 years. If the town wants more money they need more residents. Most of the towns money comes from property taxes, my new building will raise values all over. New people will need to go shopping and will liven the area…. I would like to build something with 80-100 units. LFG!
Some earnings since yesterday’s close:
AZO 60 M 70 [3% decrease in sales] EXP 55 LOW 75TCOM 65 ZIM 75 [Initially expected to lose 83 cents, analysts expected to much!] TUYA 75 YALA 65 NDSN 60 DJT 20 [Net Loss 327 million, Revenue 770k!] TRNS 70 PANW 75 [Valuation, 60x PE about 10-12% growth expected] KEYS 65
ZM 70
Nothing is wrong with the PANW earnings. They will make close to 5 dollars a share and are trading at 60x earnings. With a growth of near 10-12% expected, maybe you can no longer give it a multiple it once had when growth was 30%? I may buy the dip on ZM if 60. They will make near 5 dollars as well! The PE would be near 12! The growth is slow as well, 5-10% but they are far cheaper! It is not a bad business but no longer a growing business. For similar reasons I had traded MTCH after disappointing earnings, and will look again as it dips below 30. ACMR and YOU smashed earnings, had growth and the stocks are down so I am trading those. CAR has been my work horse since February. SOFI has growth of 30-40% and is about to be profitable…
If you check back to early January analysts had ZIM losing 83 cents a share. I have pics all over Twitter, even wanted to bet they would crush that! They did! They came in at 75 cent profit. They actually revised for the full year. They are actually paying a dividend… I am disappointed the average freight rate was 1,452! WOW I had checked daily and I saw rates 2,000+…I checked yesterday and they were back to 3,000! So they must have locked in some contracts…
The good news is.. that I expected ZIM needed 1,600 avg to break even, so if they made 75 cents a share on 1,452 it means they cut costs drastically.. More good news is that the rates are above 3,000!!! I wouldn’t buy or sell it at the moment, but the coast is much more clearer now. I have sold all my shares near 12… I was trading it a lot from 9 to 12…. I do not know if it goes back there but I am watching… With rates higher on container, the cost cuts, 14% growth in sales dollars, 10% more actually cargo, it seems good for ZIM…
The market should be watching and will be decided on NVDA ?! NVDA I believe should crush earnings…. The company may even announce a dividend… that is speculation but can be bullish…
I can tell you I rather give NVDA SMCI a 60x PE than NOW or PANW . NVDA may have sales growth near 100% and earnings 200-300% so that should tell you the valuation issue with PANW.
Please check ACMR YOU numbers and you will understand why to buy PANW is crazy! Only touching the topic because about 5 people were asking me why PANW is falling after earnings.. Nothing is wrong with PANW .. The growth is slowing, it is a great company… but why would someone pay 60x earnings when growth is slowing near 10%? Where is the value then? Perfection is priced in… so ZM and PYPL grow 5-10% and earnings grow 5% and have a PE near 12? PANW grows slightly more and has a PE near 60?
Keep in mind historically, the SP500 has a PE near 18-19….For this the SP500 returns to you near 9% a year.
On a good year earnings growth is 5% and sales are 10%... 18-19x PE!
Use that as a reference!
5 Trade Ideas:
ACMR – I did try and bid 22.50. I also have 500 shares at 25.45, sadly it went up to 26.25 and I wanted 1 dollar or 26.45, but that is ok!
CAR – I did bid 116 yesterday. I trade 100 shares normally for 2.50-4 dollars each trade. I did make 1 trade recently for 11 dollars, right after earnings
MTCH ZM – So So earnings, but valuations near 12x? MTCH my last trade was 28 to 29 on 500. ZM I am looking for 60
SOFI – I had abused this a lot last year, a few times this year. They are coming closer and closer to making money and still have 30-40% growth, even as they grow larger… HIMS hit 2! They were losing money but growth was 80-100%.. Even years later HIMS growth is still near 50%, big news on Ozempic rival yesterday
CVNA RDDT DJT – Put ideas, if any of these rally near 5-10%, they are already high but you want to dump the pumps! I will look for puts with 60-90 days
The contents of this post are for information and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute financial, accounting, or legal advice. ... By choosing to make a trade you are responsible for your own actions. Please do some due diligence. These are trades I am making and you can follow along. If you make a winning trade, I do not even expect a bravo or thanks but that’s fine, if you lose on a trade the same difference.. I do not even expect an upvote or reward… The Elite team is aware of the risks and volatility in the market.
Good luck everyone let’s make money. Share trades, ideas here during trading hours. Our main goal here is to make money so I hope we can help eachother. I will be in and out of here as well.

2024.05.21 14:58 MenthorQ Market preparing for NVDA Earnings Report
As reported by Bloomberg in a revealing statement during JPMorgan’s recent investor day, CEO Jamie Dimon announced that his tenure might conclude sooner than the previously humorously stated "five years."
Highlighting the progress in succession planning, Dimon’s departure timing remains uncertain but indicates a nearing change in leadership. The bank's top management saw strategic shifts earlier this year, preparing for this transition.
Notably, Jenn Piepszak and Troy Rohrbaugh now head an expanded commercial and investment bank, while Marianne Lake has taken sole control of the consumer and community banking segment, managing more business lines. Financially, JPMorgan adjusted its net interest income forecast for the year to $91 billion, a $1 billion increase over previous estimates, driven by fewer than anticipated interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve and stable customer account behaviour.
The bank also projected a strong return on tangible common equity of 17% over the medium term, supporting cautious share buybacks, especially when stock prices drop. Amid regulatory changes, particularly the Basel III Endgame proposals, which may increase capital requirements for large banks, Dimon critiqued the potential impact on lower-income consumers and broader economic health.
The bank also highlighted that these regulations could force two-thirds of consumers to pay a monthly service fee for checking accounts, a scenario not currently planned for by JPMorgan but indicative of possible broader market shifts.
As for corporate performance, JPMorgan anticipates a significant rise in investment-banking fees and a moderate increase in the markets business for the upcoming quarters, signalling potential growth and resilience in operations.
Finally, from the markets, the big question in the next few days is whether Nvda is going to beat forecasts or not. The market is starting to prepare for it already!

5 Common mistakes that increase cloud bill and how to avoid them
1. Unmonitored AWS Instances
Failure to monitor unused AWS instances can lead to unnecessary costs in cloud infrastructure. Neglecting to track idle, aging, or inactive AWS instances results in poor resource utilization, known as cloud sprawl. Organizations face inflated AWS bills due to uncontrolled instances from development testing or shadow IT projects.
How to tackle: To tackle this, a Cloud Center of Excellence (CCoE) can manually track AWS instances or use automated
cloud management software, such as AWS Config or AWS Trusted Advisor, to identify and decommission unused instances regularly, optimizing resource utilization and reducing unnecessary expenses.
2. Lack of instance size management
The challenge of improper instance sizing in cloud computing disrupts budgets and performance. Over-provisioning wastes resources and costs, while under-provisioning leads to performance issues. Efficient instance size management involves analyzing workloads, automated scaling, and continuous optimization to align resources with actual needs, ensuring cost-effectiveness and optimal performance.
How to tackle: To tackle instance size management challenges, IT teams or CCoEs customize AWS instance configurations, implement scheduling using AWS Auto Scaling, monitor performance metrics with Amazon CloudWatch for continuous optimization, and leverage AWS offerings like AWS Reserved Instances for cost-effective scaling and predictable billing.
3. Failure to implement a multi-cloud strategy
Failing to implement a multi-cloud strategy means missing out on opportunities to optimize costs, performance, and resilience across various cloud platforms. It limits the ability to compare services and pricing models from different providers like AWS, Azure, and GCP. Without a multi-cloud approach, organizations may face vendor lock-in, higher costs, and reduced flexibility in adapting to changing business needs.
How to tackle: To address the challenge of not implementing a multi-cloud strategy, organizations should prioritize evaluating services and pricing from various providers. Embracing a multi-cloud approach allows for cost optimization, improved performance, and reduced dependency on a single vendor, ensuring flexibility and resilience in cloud deployments.

4. Neglecting orphaned snapshots
Neglecting orphaned snapshots, which are created when instances are terminated without properly managing associated volumes and snapshots, can lead to unnecessary charges in cloud environments. These orphaned volumes and snapshots continue to incur costs even though they are no longer actively used, contributing to wasteful spending and inflated bills. It’s crucial to regularly review and clean up orphaned resources to avoid unnecessary charges and optimize cost management in cloud infrastructures.
How to tackle: To tackle the issue of neglecting orphaned snapshots, implementing backup strategies is crucial. This includes taking snapshots before deleting volumes, which reduces costs by billing only for snapshots at lower rates rather than full volume charges. Additionally, it’s essential to monitor orphaned snapshots regularly and manage them efficiently to avoid unexpected cost surges. This proactive approach, coupled with leveraging AWS services like Amazon EBS Snapshot Lifecycle Manager, ensures optimal cost management and prevents unnecessary expenses in cloud environments.
5. Lack of automation
Not embracing automation for tracking cloud resources hinders efficiency, especially at scale. Manual methods are time-consuming, prone to errors, and often lack real-time insights. Automation streamlines resource management by automatically monitoring, provisioning, and optimizing cloud assets. It reduces human intervention, ensures accuracy, and enables quicker responses to changing workload demands, leading to improved operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness in cloud environments.
How to tackle: Tackling the issue of not embracing automation involves leveraging automated tools and workflows to streamline processes and improve efficiency in cloud operations. Automation enforces best practices, maintains consistent performance standards, and reduces the burden on operations teams by handling repetitive tasks and ensuring accuracy. This enables teams to focus on critical aspects of cloud management, such as optimizing costs, enhancing security, and supporting business innovation, with the assistance of AWS services like AWS Lambda and AWS CloudFormation.

~CHANNEL & CONTENT:~ SEEKER TO SEEKER (S2S) is a unique English-language YouTube channel exploring insights from psychology, religion, and philosophy. The channel is nearing 80 000 subscribers.
The S2S video essays aim to not only inform the viewer, but also inspire them. The goal is to produce evocative pieces of film that connect with the viewer on an emotional level. The video essays employ an ‘old film’ look through the use of old etchings/prints/drawings and archival footage as B-roll. The content is almost entirely black and white. Music plays a central role in the atmosphere and pacing.
~JOB DESCRIPTION:~ I am looking for a craft-oriented video editor to partner with on a long-term basis.
As S2S video editor, you will be working closely with me on producing evocative, well-crafted video essays. Initially, your task will be to adapt to the already established style of the content. (Please see reference videos below.) As someone passionate about editing, I will be going over the final edits in Adobe Premiere Pro for final adjustments. I will be giving you thorough feedback and I am looking forward to receiving fresh ideas from you. We will be communicating remotely through video calls once or twice a week. I am based in Sofia, Bulgaria, working within the Central European Time Zone (CET).
Once you master the existing style (which I expect will happen by the time you’ve edited 3-5 videos), you will gradually have more creative freedom to improve on the format with your own stylistic contributions. My hope is that you enjoy the work and be proud with what you produce for the channel. You will be credited in the description of every video you work on (unless you prefer otherwise).
The video essays on S2S do not require expert skills or knowledge, but they do require attention to detail and a keen sense for tone/atmosphere. I am looking for a creative partner passionate about creating meaningful work that inspires people.
As of now:
- I will be providing you with audio (voiceover + music) and you will work on the B-roll, titles, and sound effects
- the edits you will be working on will be between 20 and 40 minutes in length
- you will have between 1 and 2 weeks to finish your edits, depending on the length
- you will be editing 1 video per month for the first 3 months; we will be striving for 2 videos per month after that
The above are subject to change and negotiation as our work together moves forward.
