• FOCUS-Kids gaming platform Roblox faces hurdles ahead of public listing: rough words
Profanities and other offensive content that basic word-filtering tools are designed to catch can be found in some game titles and user profiles on children's gaming platform Roblox, searches of the website show, despite the company’s "no tolerance" policy and assurances it has safeguards to enforce it.


BEFORE THE BELL
Wall Street futures were lower, mirroring global equities, as investors feared another round of shutdowns due to surging coronavirus cases in the United States. The dollar strengthened as concerns about rising COVID-19 infection numbers and risks to the fragile global economic recovery outweighed optimism about potential vaccines, while gold prices were down. Oil prices were in the negative territory. The U.S. jobless claims and existing home sales numbers are on the economic radar.


STOCKS TO WATCH

Results
• L Brands Inc (LB). The company posted better-than-expected quarterly results on Wednesday, helped by record sales growth at Bath & Body Works and higher demand for Victoria's Secret lingerie, sending the company's shares higher in extended trading. Bath & Body Works posted a 56% jump in comparable sales in the third quarter. L Brands also saw a 4% rise in comparable sales at Victoria's Secret. Net income came in at $330.6 million, or $1.17 per share, for the three months ended Oct. 31, compared with a loss of $252 million, or 91 cents per share, a year earlier, when it recorded some impairment charges. On an adjusted basis, it earned $1.13 per share, more than analysts' average estimate of 9 cents per share. Net sales rose 14% to $3.06 billion, easily exceeding expectations of $2.67 billion.

• Nvidia Corp (NVDA). The chipmaker’s shares declined in extended trading on Wednesday after company executives said data center chip sales would fall slightly in the fourth quarter. The dip came after the company forecast overall fourth-quarter revenue above Wall Street expectations, betting on robust demand for its graphic chips for gaming devices and data centers. The company said it expects current-quarter revenue of $4.80 billion, plus or minus 2%, compared with analysts' average estimate of $4.42 billion. Nvidia also beat revenue expectations for the third quarter as gaming business revenue jumped 37% to $2.27 billion from a year earlier, beating FactSet estimates of $2.06 billion. But Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress said that "industry-wide capacity constraints" meant it could be months before supplies of Nvidia's newest line of gaming chips could catch up with demand. Revenue from the data center segment more than doubled to $1.9 billion, compared with FactSet estimates of $1.84 billion. Earnings per share were $2.91, above analyst estimates of $2.57.

In Other News
• ABB Ltd (ABB). The Swiss engineering company plans to offload three business units that generate $1.75 billion in sales, the company said, equivalent to 6% of its annual revenue. The company is "exploring all options" to exit turbocharging, mechanical power and power conversion, the company said ahead of its first investor day under Chief Executive Officer Bjorn Rosengren. Rosengren said all three business units were "high quality" with profit margins above the group margin corridor of 14% to 16%. Among the options being explored are complete sales or spin offs. "In this process, we will seek the best value-accretive solution for ABB and those businesses and not put ourselves under time pressure," said Rosengren, adding portfolio reviews would remain in place.

• Alphabet Inc (GOOGL), Amazon.com Inc (AMZN), Apple Inc (AAPL) & Facebook Inc (FB). EU antitrust enforcers face an uphill battle in tackling tech giants abusing their dominance because of the difficulty of finding remedies, the EU's budget watchdog said in its first audit of the regulators. "Although the Commission has taken a number of case decisions tackling challenges resulting from the digital economy, significant challenges remain to be resolved," the watchdog said. "For example, practices in digital markets can cause damage to consumers. However, it is difficult for the Commission to find appropriate remedies to tackle an apparent competition problem as determining consumer harm can be particularly complex." The ECA said the issue applies not just to internet companies but also businesses involved in digital innovation such as those in energy, telecommunications, financial services and transport. It said part of the problem lies in EU antitrust rules which only allow enforcers to act after wrongdoing has been committed.

• Amazon.com Inc (AMZN). The online retailer has laid off dozens of R&D and manufacturing staff from its delivery drone project, Amazon Prime Air, the Financial Times reported. The company has reached tentative deals with two external manufacturers to build component parts of its long-awaited drone, the newspaper said, adding that more deals with third parties could be finalised soon. The full terms of the agreements with Austria's FACC Aerospace and Spain's Aernnova Aerospace were still being finalised, the FT report said, citing a person familiar with Amazon's plans.

• AstraZeneca PLC (AZN). The drugmaker and Oxford University's potential COVID-19 vaccine produced a strong immune response in older adults, data published showed, with researchers expecting to release late-stage trial results by Christmas. The data, reported in part last month but published in full in The Lancet medical journal, suggest that those aged over 70, who are at higher risk of serious illness and death from COVID-19, could build robust immunity. "The robust antibody and T-cell responses seen in older people in our study are encouraging," said Maheshi Ramasamy, a consultant and co-lead investigator at the Oxford Vaccine Group. "We hope that this means our vaccine will help to protect some of the most vulnerable people in society, but further research will be needed before we can be sure." Late-stage, or Phase III, trials are ongoing to confirm the findings, researchers said, and to test whether the vaccine protects against infection with SARS-CoV-2 in a broad range of people, including people with underlying health conditions. Results of those trials should definitely be known by Christmas, the Oxford Vaccine Group's director Andrew Pollard said, adding it was too early to know whether and how well the vaccine works in preventing COVID-19 disease.

• AT&T Inc (T). Superhero movie "Wonder Woman 1984" will debut simultaneously in U.S. theaters and on the company’s HBO Max streaming service starting on Christmas Day, an unusual release plan prompted by the coronavirus pandemic. AT&T's Warner Bros studio said on Wednesday that the blockbuster film will be shown in theaters outside the United States, where HBO Max is not available, starting on Dec. 16. "For a movie of this scale, this is unprecedented," WarnerMedia Chief Executive Jason Kilar said in a blog post explaining why the company decided to provide the movie in homes and theaters at the same time.

• Boeing Co (BA). Some of the relatives of victims of a fatal Boeing 737 MAX crash in Indonesia have slammed a decision by U.S. aviation authorities to allow the jets to return to the skies, saying the move comes too soon. The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration on Wednesday lifted a flight ban on Boeing's 737 MAX imposed after two fatal crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia killed 346 people within five months in 2018 and 2019. "The U.S. authorities shouldn't have lifted the grounding order this quickly," said Aris Sugiono, who lost his sister and brother-in-law in the crash. "They must consider the feelings of the victim’s families." "It's too soon," agreed Anton Sahadi, who had two young relatives on board the doomed flight. "It wasn’t just the Lion Air flight, but also the victims in Ethiopia... The victims' families haven't 100% recovered yet." Families of the Ethiopian crash victims said in a statement they felt "sheer disappointment and renewed grief" after the FAA's decision to return the aircraft to service.

• Forum Merger III Corp (FIII). A U.S. electric delivery van company is in talks to go public through a merger with the special-purpose acquisition company (SPAC), a person familiar with the plan said on Wednesday. Electric Last Mile Solutions (ELMS), which plans to make EV delivery vans, is negotiating a $250 million reverse merger with Forum that could value the company at over $1 billion based on previous EV SPAC deals, said the source, who asked not to be identified because the deal has not been finalized. ELMS declined to comment. Officials at Forum, which raised $250 million in an August initial public offering, could not be reached. If the deal is finalized, the proceeds raised would fund the rollout of two EV van models over the next two years, the source said.

• Moderna Inc (MRNA) & BioNtech SE (BNTX). A number of hedge funds sold positions in the two drug companies leading the race to a coronavirus vaccine in the quarter before both announced breakthroughs that lifted their stock prices, while a few took stakes in the companies during that time. Regulatory filings show that hedge funds sold millions of shares in drugmakers Moderna and BioNtech during the third quarter, missing out on big gains this month when each announced their vaccines are more than 94% effective. By the end of September, Balyasny Asset Management, Adage Capital Partners and Verition Fund Management had liquidated their positions in Moderna while Healthcor Management, Logos Global Management and Duquesne Family Office exited positions in BioNtech, according to regulatory filings and data from research firm Symmetric.io.

• Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc (SBGI) & Bally's Corp (BALY). Sinclair said on Wednesday it had partnered with sports betting company and casino operator Bally's and was rebranding its 21 Fox regional sports networks under the Bally name. Under the deal, Sinclair said it would take a 14.9% stake in Bally's and would have the right to raise its stake by another 10% if it meets certain financial targets. Bally's will gain marketing access across Sinclair's 190 television stations, the two companies said in a joint statement.

• Starbucks Corp (SBUX). The coffee chain will hike pay for baristas, shift supervisors and cafe attendants at its U.S. outlets by at least 10% effective Dec. 14, according to an internal memo seen by Reuters. The company will also boost starting pay by 5% in order to help attract and retain employees. The memo, dated Nov. 2, was first reported by Business Insider on Wednesday. The increase is "one of the most substantial investments in pay in our company’s history," Rossann Williams, Starbucks' president of U.S. retail, wrote in the memo. Employees with the company for three years or more will get at least an 11% pay hike, and the company will increase the premium it already pays above minimum wage in every market, it said.

• Twitter Inc (TWTR), Facebook Inc (FB) & Alphabet Inc (GOOGL). Lawmakers in Russia's parliament presented draft legislation that, if passed, would enable the government to restrict internet access to U.S. social media giants deemed to have discriminated against Russian media outlets. The authors of the bill, most of whom were from the ruling United Russia party, said they had received complaints from home-grown outlets like Russia Today, RIA Novosti and Crimea 24 about accounts being suspended or labelled by Twitter, Facebook and Alphabet's YouTube. "The urgency in adopting the draft law is due to numerous cases of unjustified restriction of Russian citizens' access to information in the Russian media by certain internet resources, including those registered outside Russia," a note attached to the document said. Separately, Twitter will slow down the rollout of tweets that disappear after 24 hours, a day after it launched the feature worldwide, in order to fix performance and stability issues, the company's support team said in a tweet on Wednesday.


ANALYSIS
As regulators prepare to weigh in on 737 MAX, FAA's global dominance fades
Global regulators have held off approving the Boeing 737 MAX despite a decision by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration to end a 20-month grounding, highlighting changes in the global regulatory pecking order caused by two crashes of the jet.


ANALYSTS' RECOMMENDATION
• Caterpillar Inc (CAT). JPMorgan raises price target to $185 from $178, noting that the company has been able to cut fixed costs by restructuring its Resource business, which should provide earnings upside as volumes recover.

• Corcept Therapeutics Inc (CORT). Jefferies raises price target to $22 from $20, on expectations for winning a key patent challenge against Teva Pharmaceuticals and safety improvements for its 'Relacorilant' treatment.

• Deere & Co (DE). JPMorgan raises price target to $210 from $201, in light of stronger US agriculture fundamentals into calendar year-end that, combined with record-high government direct payments in 2020, should translate into higher US net farm income.

• L Brands Inc (LB). Wells Fargo raises price target to $60 from $45, citing strong third-quarter results that beat estimates with the company investing in supply chain in order to support the outsized growth this year.

• Yelp Inc (YELP). RBC raises price target to $34 from $29, highlighting the company's product improvements, sales efficiency driving margin expansion and the overall return of ad budgets under a vaccine-world.

Beste beleggers, beursliefhebbers

De markt lijkt onderweg om het 50-daags gemiddelde op te zoeken na de recente rally die ruim 2 weken duurde via de overwinning van Biden bij de verkiezingen, na 2 meldingen over een vaccin dat volgend jaar beschikbaar zal komen en door de traditionele positieve flow die er opeens kwam. Uiteraard weten we dat de onderliggende factoren nog lang niet zijn zoals ze waren eind vorig jaar en tot eind februari dit jaar, het kan nog even moeilijk verlopen en of daar koers-winst verhoudingen van 25 tot 30 gemiddeld (SP 500 en Dow aandelen) bij passen blijft de grote vraag. Kijken we terug in de tijd dan zie je zoiets vrijwel nooit voorkomen en als we al met dit soort waarderingen zitten dan weten we dat die worden recht getrokken op een bepaald moment.

Kortom, er komen meer realistische waarden aan, dat kan door dat de winstcijfers gaan oplopen (met deze economie kan dat nog tot eind 2021 duren) of door een brede markt correctie (de lucht moet eruit vloeien). Wat we zeker weten is dat we op dit moment te hoog staan naar de omstandigheden die er nu zijn en die er nog aan zitten te komen want het zal beter gaan maar nog niet zo snel als sommigen denken. Dat is de verwachting die ik kan uitspreken, het lijkt de meest logische al weten we ook wel dat een bubbel pas voorbij is als die uiteen spat ... Veel aandelen vertonen die bubbel vorming, ook andere zaken laten dat zien, het geld gaat te snel naar waarden waar men weinig of niets van weet en dat blijft dus gevaarlijk !!!

Wat ik kan doen is zoeken naar kansen, erop handelen en inspelen op wat ik verwacht van de markt. Deze maand valt niet mee al kon ik er weinig aan doen omdat ik juist op het moment dat het nieuws over het vaccin er kwam short zat op wat indices. Op zich ben ik dat nu aan het herstellen, dat gaat de goeie kant op want er lopen wat posities nu, en die kunt u eventueel nog opnemen door u via de nieuwe aanbieding in te schrijven. Dat is dan voor €39 tot 1 FEBRUARI, u krijgt dan de ochtend update, de signalen per mail en SMS en de coaching updates per mail die ik enkele keren per week verstuur naar de leden. Genoeg begeleiding, coaching en dus ook signalen voor €39 tot 1 februari.

Het moment om het weer te proberen, trouwens denk ik, en ga ervan uit dat we veel beter voor de dag gaan komen met de handel want hoe dan ook, 2020 was een zeer moeilijk beursjaar ... Voor mezelf was het ook een moeilijk jaar maar ik heb meer zin dan ooit eerder om me te herpakken, te bewijzen dat de resultaten van de jaren 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018 en 2019 ook in 2021 mogelijk zijn en reken erop dat we een zeer sterke reeks gaan neerzetten ... Het moment om lid te worden dus ...

US Markets Trading ...

Goedemorgen
De Dow Jones en de SP 500 sluiten 1,2% lager, de Nasdaq verloor gisteren 0,8%. In Europa zien we amper een verandering, de AEX sluit de sessie vlak af terwijl de DAX en de CAC 40 met een winst van 0,5% de dag uitgingen. Bij het sluiten van de markten in Europa stond Wall Street nog in de plus want de verliezen kwamen pas in de avond tot stand toen bekend werd gemaakt dat het verder uit de hand loopt met het aantal besmettingen en doden in de VS. Ook werd bekend gemaakt dat de scholen dicht moeten in New York.

Verder waarschuwde Fed-voorzitter Jerome Powell dat de economie in de VS nog een lange weg te gaan heeft voor dat deze crisis achter de rug is ondanks dat er een vaccin op komst is. Het vertrouwen terugwinnen zal een zaak van lange adem worden, niet alleen in de VS maar overal waar we met deze crisis te maken hebben. De reactie van de markten op de komst van de vaccins lijkt me dan ook zwaar overdreven de afgelopen 2 weken. De markt zit aan zijn plafond momenteel, het is niet de tijd waar je nieuwe records maakt terwijl de rookpluimen van de zware economische impact nog te zien zijn.

Een bedrijf dat opviel, en dus de koers van het aandeel, was Boeing, de toestellen van het type 737 MAX mogen weer de lucht in werd door de FAA bekend gemaakt. Eerst voegde Boeing nog eens 12 dollar winst toe na de opening maar het aandeel sluit 7 dollar lager gisteren. Toch een dag met zo'n 10% beweging wat betreft het aandeel dat de afgelopen dagen behoorlijk omhoog ging.

Technisch bekeken valt het op dat Wall Street de top niet kan breken en dat bij de Dow Jones de 30.000 te hoog gegrepen lijkt momenteel. De Nasdaq laat wat meer verzwakking zien, daar nog geen nieuw record voorlopig en de index staat weer ruim onder de 12.000 punten. Verder is het wachten op hoe de week zal afsluiten, zoals ik al aangaf zie ik weinig redenen tot optimisme ook al willen velen dat graag. We leden dat er geen alternatief is voor aandelen maar we moeten wel blijven letten op de koers-winst verhoudingen natuurlijk. Wat we wel zien is dat het geld weer naar exotische beleggingen stroomt, richting overwaardering, richting bubbels zoals de Bitcoin die we weer in de buurt van de 18.000 dollar zien uitkomen. Je leest nu weer van die verhalen dat de Bitcoin volgend jaar naar de 100.000 dollar gaat, wanneer hebben we dat eerder gelezen??

Zie bijvoorbeeld ook Tesla, het aandeel loopt eerst 50% op omdat het zich ging splitsen (1 tot 5), nu het bedrijf in de S&P 500 wordt opgenomen in december zien we in 2 dagen tijd al een stijging van meer dan 20%. De grote vraag is dan, hoeveel geld heeft Tesla meer verdiend dan pakweg een half jaar geleden? Dat blijft natuurlijk het gevaar in de markt momenteel, het kopen van zaken waar men niet goed weet tot waar het toe zal leiden ... Een constatering die past bij het vormen van een bubbel !!

Voor de leden zoek ik naar kansen, we zitten al in de markt, de leden krijgen waar nodig een update over de strategie en waar het kan zal ik nog een positie erbij kopen ...

Euro, olie en goud:
De euro zien we vanmorgen rond de 1.185 dollar, de prijs van een vat Brent olie noteert vanmorgen op 44,25 dollar. Een troy ounce goud kost nu 1860 dollar.

US Markets Trading nu voor €39 tot 1 FEBRUARI 2021:
Maak vanaf vandaag gebruik van de nieuwe aanbieding die loopt tot 1 februari 2021 ... Ik blijf uiteraard zoeken naar kansen in deze markt, we hebben strategisch al wat kleine posities open staan.
