A new COVID variant is never a good thing - for a variety of reasons - and the market sold first and asked questions later. The good news is that selling created some great entry points on leading stocks, and in this article, I'll update my views on technology mothership Apple(AAPL), which I believe just hit very strong support, and is now ready for a run to a new all-time high.\nApple has been a model portfolio stock in my Seeking Alpha Marketplace service,Timely Trader, since the service's inception, and by all evidence, appears poised to maintain its position. The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.\n\nWe'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.\nThe stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.\nIn short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.\nNow, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.\nIgnore the noise, Apple is still dominant\nApple's Q4 earnings showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.\nThere is evidence to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and China showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.\nKeep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?\nNow, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nWe can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.\nNow, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.\nSource: TIKR.com\nRevenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.\nBelow we have TTM gross margins and SG&A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.\nSource: TIKR.com\nSG&A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.\nThe bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.\nSwitching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.\nSource: TIKR.com\nWe can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.\nWe therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nThis is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.\nValuation reset creates a buying chance\nNow, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?\nSource: TIKR.com\nGiven the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.\nI'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[{"id":609588138,"gmtCreate":1638307261361,"gmtModify":1638307263126,"author":{"id":"3577147024133490","authorId":"3577147024133490","name":"vincentheng8","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/177fda2264ab2bd83ccfc55eb70c57a4","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"wearingBadges":[],"authorIdStr":"3577147024133490","idStr":"3577147024133490"},"htmlText":"All in!","listText":"All in!","text":"All in!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/609588138","repostId":1183198352,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1183198352","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1638274451,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1183198352?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-30 20:14","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1183198352","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"Summary\n\nAAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.\nThe","content":"Summary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected.

In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.<blockquote>考虑到该公司的增长轨迹，包括由于供应链问题，我们应该会看到一些从2021财年被压抑的需求转移到2022财年，我认为这个估值相当诱人。事实上，我认为28倍市盈率的上行潜力远大于下行潜力，因此当我们将技术面与基本面（包括这个估值）结合起来时，除了看涨苹果之外，我看不到任何其他道路。</blockquote> I'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.<blockquote>我当然不是苹果的永久看涨者，但当我客观评估这家公司的前景和股票的前景时，我只能得出一个结论：这是一个正在创下历史新高的买入。</blockquote>","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>Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote></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: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\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\">\nApple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nSeeking Alpha2021-11-30 20:14\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nSummary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected.

The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.<blockquote>苹果一直是我的Seeking Alpha Marketplace服务中的模型投资组合股票，及时交易者自该服务成立以来，从所有证据来看，似乎已准备好保持其地位。投资组合每月都会重新评估，以确保我们的资本得到有效部署，苹果也会继续削减。下面我将解释为什么围绕供应链的噪音就是这样，以及为什么该股将自己定位为在2022年持续走高。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/98a005c1e28b33227395e295eb4d3ac6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"812\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><blockquote></blockquote> We'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come.

A new COVID variant is never a good thing - for a variety of reasons - and the market sold first and asked questions later. The good news is that selling created some great entry points on leading stocks, and in this article, I'll update my views on technology mothership Apple(AAPL), which I believe just hit very strong support, and is now ready for a run to a new all-time high.\nApple has been a model portfolio stock in my Seeking Alpha Marketplace service,Timely Trader, since the service's inception, and by all evidence, appears poised to maintain its position. The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.\n\nWe'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.\nThe stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.\nIn short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.\nNow, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.\nIgnore the noise, Apple is still dominant\nApple's Q4 earnings showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.\nThere is evidence to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and China showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.\nKeep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?\nNow, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nWe can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.\nNow, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.\nSource: TIKR.com\nRevenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.\nBelow we have TTM gross margins and SG&A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.\nSource: TIKR.com\nSG&A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.\nThe bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.\nSwitching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.\nSource: TIKR.com\nWe can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.\nWe therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nThis is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.\nValuation reset creates a buying chance\nNow, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?\nSource: TIKR.com\nGiven the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing.

In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.<blockquote>考虑到该公司的增长轨迹，包括由于供应链问题，我们应该会看到一些从2021财年被压抑的需求转移到2022财年，我认为这个估值相当诱人。事实上，我认为28倍市盈率的上行潜力远大于下行潜力，因此当我们将技术面与基本面（包括这个估值）结合起来时，除了看涨苹果之外，我看不到任何其他道路。</blockquote> I'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.<blockquote>我当然不是苹果的永久看涨者，但当我客观评估这家公司的前景和股票的前景时，我只能得出一个结论：这是一个正在创下历史新高的买入。</blockquote>","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>Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote></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: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\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\">\nApple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nSeeking Alpha2021-11-30 20:14\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nSummary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected. A new COVID variant is never a good thing - for a variety of reasons - and the market sold first and asked questions later. The good news is that selling created some great entry points on leading stocks, and in this article, I'll update my views on technology mothership&nbsp;Apple(AAPL), which I believe just hit very strong support, and is now ready for a run to a new all-time high.<blockquote>上周五发生的抛售当然出乎意料。出于各种原因，新的COVID变体从来都不是一件好事，市场先卖，后问问题。好消息是，抛售为龙头股创造了一些很好的切入点，在本文中，我将更新我对科技母舰的看法苹果（AAPL），我相信它刚刚触及非常强劲的支撑，现在已准备好创下历史新高。</blockquote> Apple has been a model portfolio stock in my Seeking Alpha Marketplace service,Timely Trader, since the service's inception, and by all evidence, appears poised to maintain its position. The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.<blockquote>苹果一直是我的Seeking Alpha Marketplace服务中的模型投资组合股票，及时交易者自该服务成立以来，从所有证据来看，似乎已准备好保持其地位。投资组合每月都会重新评估，以确保我们的资本得到有效部署，苹果也会继续削减。下面我将解释为什么围绕供应链的噪音就是这样，以及为什么该股将自己定位为在2022年持续走高。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/98a005c1e28b33227395e295eb4d3ac6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"812\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><blockquote></blockquote> We'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?<blockquote>现在，我们都知道很多不同股票的估值在很多地方都过高，苹果也不例外。我们可以在下面看到，目前其远期市盈率为28倍，而三年平均市盈率为23倍。然而，它远低于37倍的高点，我认为，鉴于其收入和利润率的加速增长，苹果的估值应该比过去三年更高。简单的事实是，公司的盈利流已经大大改善，那么估值为什么不应该呢？</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3375c0e3b0081634279d2f828195612\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Given the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing.

The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.\nSource: TIKR.com\nWe can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.\nWe therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nThis is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.\nValuation reset creates a buying chance\nNow, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?\nSource: TIKR.com\nGiven the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.\nI'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"CN"},{"id":609290709,"gmtCreate":1638284297362,"gmtModify":1638284308140,"author":{"id":"3577089953267281","authorId":"3577089953267281","name":"Annalz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ffd285ab6189bb61da4b48c3e149eedc","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"wearingBadges":[],"authorIdStr":"3577089953267281","idStr":"3577089953267281"},"htmlText":"Apple will keep flying&nbsp;","listText":"Apple will keep flying&nbsp;","text":"Apple will keep flying","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/609290709","repostId":1183198352,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1183198352","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1638274451,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1183198352?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-30 20:14","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1183198352","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"Summary\n\nAAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.\nThe","content":"Summary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected.

First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?<blockquote>现在，我们都知道很多不同股票的估值在很多地方都过高，苹果也不例外。我们可以在下面看到，目前其远期市盈率为28倍，而三年平均市盈率为23倍。然而，它远低于37倍的高点，我认为，鉴于其收入和利润率的加速增长，苹果的估值应该比过去三年更高。简单的事实是，公司的盈利流已经大大改善，那么估值为什么不应该呢？</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3375c0e3b0081634279d2f828195612\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Given the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.<blockquote>考虑到该公司的增长轨迹，包括由于供应链问题，我们应该会看到一些从2021财年被压抑的需求转移到2022财年，我认为这个估值相当诱人。事实上，我认为28倍市盈率的上行潜力远大于下行潜力，因此当我们将技术面与基本面（包括这个估值）结合起来时，除了看涨苹果之外，我看不到任何其他道路。</blockquote> I'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.<blockquote>我当然不是苹果的永久看涨者，但当我客观评估这家公司的前景和股票的前景时，我只能得出一个结论：这是一个正在创下历史新高的买入。</blockquote>","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>Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote></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: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\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\">\nApple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nSeeking Alpha2021-11-30 20:14\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nSummary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected.

And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?<blockquote>现在，我们都知道很多不同股票的估值在很多地方都过高，苹果也不例外。我们可以在下面看到，目前其远期市盈率为28倍，而三年平均市盈率为23倍。然而，它远低于37倍的高点，我认为，鉴于其收入和利润率的加速增长，苹果的估值应该比过去三年更高。简单的事实是，公司的盈利流已经大大改善，那么估值为什么不应该呢？</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3375c0e3b0081634279d2f828195612\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Given the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.<blockquote>考虑到该公司的增长轨迹，包括由于供应链问题，我们应该会看到一些从2021财年被压抑的需求转移到2022财年，我认为这个估值相当诱人。事实上，我认为28倍市盈率的上行潜力远大于下行潜力，因此当我们将技术面与基本面（包括这个估值）结合起来时，除了看涨苹果之外，我看不到任何其他道路。</blockquote> I'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.<blockquote>我当然不是苹果的永久看涨者，但当我客观评估这家公司的前景和股票的前景时，我只能得出一个结论：这是一个正在创下历史新高的买入。</blockquote>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n 来源：<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4472312-apple-heres-your-chance\">Seeking Alpha</a>\n为提升您的阅读体验，我们对本页面进行了排版优化\n\n\n</div>\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4472312-apple-heres-your-chance","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1183198352","content_text":"Summary\n\nAAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.\nThe company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.\nThe stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.\n\nAleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images\nThe selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected.

Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?<blockquote>现在，我们都知道很多不同股票的估值在很多地方都过高，苹果也不例外。我们可以在下面看到，目前其远期市盈率为28倍，而三年平均市盈率为23倍。然而，它远低于37倍的高点，我认为，鉴于其收入和利润率的加速增长，苹果的估值应该比过去三年更高。简单的事实是，公司的盈利流已经大大改善，那么估值为什么不应该呢？</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3375c0e3b0081634279d2f828195612\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Given the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.<blockquote>考虑到该公司的增长轨迹，包括由于供应链问题，我们应该会看到一些从2021财年被压抑的需求转移到2022财年，我认为这个估值相当诱人。事实上，我认为28倍市盈率的上行潜力远大于下行潜力，因此当我们将技术面与基本面（包括这个估值）结合起来时，除了看涨苹果之外，我看不到任何其他道路。</blockquote> I'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.<blockquote>我当然不是苹果的永久看涨者，但当我客观评估这家公司的前景和股票的前景时，我只能得出一个结论：这是一个正在创下历史新高的买入。</blockquote>","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>Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote></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: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\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\">\nApple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nSeeking Alpha2021-11-30 20:14\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nSummary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected.

The good news is that selling created some great entry points on leading stocks, and in this article, I'll update my views on technology mothership&nbsp;Apple(AAPL), which I believe just hit very strong support, and is now ready for a run to a new all-time high.<blockquote>上周五发生的抛售当然出乎意料。出于各种原因，新的COVID变体从来都不是一件好事，市场先卖，后问问题。好消息是，抛售为龙头股创造了一些很好的切入点，在本文中，我将更新我对科技母舰的看法苹果（AAPL），我相信它刚刚触及非常强劲的支撑，现在已准备好创下历史新高。</blockquote> Apple has been a model portfolio stock in my Seeking Alpha Marketplace service,Timely Trader, since the service's inception, and by all evidence, appears poised to maintain its position. The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.<blockquote>苹果一直是我的Seeking Alpha Marketplace服务中的模型投资组合股票，及时交易者自该服务成立以来，从所有证据来看，似乎已准备好保持其地位。投资组合每月都会重新评估，以确保我们的资本得到有效部署，苹果也会继续削减。下面我将解释为什么围绕供应链的噪音就是这样，以及为什么该股将自己定位为在2022年持续走高。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/98a005c1e28b33227395e295eb4d3ac6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"812\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><blockquote></blockquote> We'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut.

A new COVID variant is never a good thing - for a variety of reasons - and the market sold first and asked questions later. The good news is that selling created some great entry points on leading stocks, and in this article, I'll update my views on technology mothership Apple(AAPL), which I believe just hit very strong support, and is now ready for a run to a new all-time high.\nApple has been a model portfolio stock in my Seeking Alpha Marketplace service,Timely Trader, since the service's inception, and by all evidence, appears poised to maintain its position. The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.\n\nWe'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.\nThe stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.\nIn short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.\nNow, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.\nIgnore the noise, Apple is still dominant\nApple's Q4 earnings showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.\nThere is evidence to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and China showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.\nKeep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?\nNow, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nWe can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.\nNow, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.\nSource: TIKR.com\nRevenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.\nBelow we have TTM gross margins and SG&A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.\nSource: TIKR.com\nSG&A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.\nThe bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.\nSwitching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.\nSource: TIKR.com\nWe can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.\nWe therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nThis is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.\nValuation reset creates a buying chance\nNow, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different.

The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.<blockquote>苹果一直是我的Seeking Alpha Marketplace服务中的模型投资组合股票，及时交易者自该服务成立以来，从所有证据来看，似乎已准备好保持其地位。投资组合每月都会重新评估，以确保我们的资本得到有效部署，苹果也会继续削减。下面我将解释为什么围绕供应链的噪音就是这样，以及为什么该股将自己定位为在2022年持续走高。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/98a005c1e28b33227395e295eb4d3ac6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"812\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><blockquote></blockquote> We'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different.

And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.\nBelow we have TTM gross margins and SG&A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.\nSource: TIKR.com\nSG&A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.\nThe bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.\nSwitching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.\nSource: TIKR.com\nWe can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.\nWe therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nThis is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.\nValuation reset creates a buying chance\nNow, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?\nSource: TIKR.com\nGiven the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.\nI'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":6787610,"gmtCreate":1638287448157,"gmtModify":1638287448246,"authorId":3564565270877568,"author":{"id":3564565270877568,"idStr":"3564565270877568","authorId":3564565270877568,"name":"PS153","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2e185e8aa9ee6ee618f951b9141b9e40","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":609662518,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"hurray","text":"hurray","html":"hurray"}],"langContent":"CN"},{"id":609685354,"gmtCreate":1638279465620,"gmtModify":1638279465765,"author":{"id":"3568940106394782","authorId":"3568940106394782","name":"Cheryi","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"wearingBadges":[],"authorIdStr":"3568940106394782","idStr":"3568940106394782"},"htmlText":"Follow","listText":"Follow","text":"Follow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/609685354","repostId":1183198352,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1183198352","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1638274451,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1183198352?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-30 20:14","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1183198352","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"Summary\n\nAAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.\nThe","content":"Summary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected.

First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?<blockquote>现在，我们都知道很多不同股票的估值在很多地方都过高，苹果也不例外。我们可以在下面看到，目前其远期市盈率为28倍，而三年平均市盈率为23倍。然而，它远低于37倍的高点，我认为，鉴于其收入和利润率的加速增长，苹果的估值应该比过去三年更高。简单的事实是，公司的盈利流已经大大改善，那么估值为什么不应该呢？</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3375c0e3b0081634279d2f828195612\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Given the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.<blockquote>考虑到该公司的增长轨迹，包括由于供应链问题，我们应该会看到一些从2021财年被压抑的需求转移到2022财年，我认为这个估值相当诱人。事实上，我认为28倍市盈率的上行潜力远大于下行潜力，因此当我们将技术面与基本面（包括这个估值）结合起来时，除了看涨苹果之外，我看不到任何其他道路。</blockquote> I'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.<blockquote>我当然不是苹果的永久看涨者，但当我客观评估这家公司的前景和股票的前景时，我只能得出一个结论：这是一个正在创下历史新高的买入。</blockquote>","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>Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote></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: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\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\">\nApple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nSeeking Alpha2021-11-30 20:14\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nSummary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected.

First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?<blockquote>现在，我们都知道很多不同股票的估值在很多地方都过高，苹果也不例外。我们可以在下面看到，目前其远期市盈率为28倍，而三年平均市盈率为23倍。然而，它远低于37倍的高点，我认为，鉴于其收入和利润率的加速增长，苹果的估值应该比过去三年更高。简单的事实是，公司的盈利流已经大大改善，那么估值为什么不应该呢？</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3375c0e3b0081634279d2f828195612\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Given the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.<blockquote>考虑到该公司的增长轨迹，包括由于供应链问题，我们应该会看到一些从2021财年被压抑的需求转移到2022财年，我认为这个估值相当诱人。事实上，我认为28倍市盈率的上行潜力远大于下行潜力，因此当我们将技术面与基本面（包括这个估值）结合起来时，除了看涨苹果之外，我看不到任何其他道路。</blockquote> I'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.<blockquote>我当然不是苹果的永久看涨者，但当我客观评估这家公司的前景和股票的前景时，我只能得出一个结论：这是一个正在创下历史新高的买入。</blockquote>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n 来源：<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4472312-apple-heres-your-chance\">Seeking Alpha</a>\n为提升您的阅读体验，我们对本页面进行了排版优化\n\n\n</div>\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4472312-apple-heres-your-chance","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1183198352","content_text":"Summary\n\nAAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.\nThe company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.\nThe stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.\n\nAleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images\nThe selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected.

That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?<blockquote>现在，我们都知道很多不同股票的估值在很多地方都过高，苹果也不例外。我们可以在下面看到，目前其远期市盈率为28倍，而三年平均市盈率为23倍。然而，它远低于37倍的高点，我认为，鉴于其收入和利润率的加速增长，苹果的估值应该比过去三年更高。简单的事实是，公司的盈利流已经大大改善，那么估值为什么不应该呢？</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3375c0e3b0081634279d2f828195612\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Given the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.<blockquote>考虑到该公司的增长轨迹，包括由于供应链问题，我们应该会看到一些从2021财年被压抑的需求转移到2022财年，我认为这个估值相当诱人。事实上，我认为28倍市盈率的上行潜力远大于下行潜力，因此当我们将技术面与基本面（包括这个估值）结合起来时，除了看涨苹果之外，我看不到任何其他道路。</blockquote> I'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.<blockquote>我当然不是苹果的永久看涨者，但当我客观评估这家公司的前景和股票的前景时，我只能得出一个结论：这是一个正在创下历史新高的买入。</blockquote>","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>Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote></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: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\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\">\nApple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nSeeking Alpha2021-11-30 20:14\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nSummary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected.

This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?<blockquote>现在，我们都知道很多不同股票的估值在很多地方都过高，苹果也不例外。我们可以在下面看到，目前其远期市盈率为28倍，而三年平均市盈率为23倍。然而，它远低于37倍的高点，我认为，鉴于其收入和利润率的加速增长，苹果的估值应该比过去三年更高。简单的事实是，公司的盈利流已经大大改善，那么估值为什么不应该呢？</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3375c0e3b0081634279d2f828195612\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Given the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.<blockquote>考虑到该公司的增长轨迹，包括由于供应链问题，我们应该会看到一些从2021财年被压抑的需求转移到2022财年，我认为这个估值相当诱人。事实上，我认为28倍市盈率的上行潜力远大于下行潜力，因此当我们将技术面与基本面（包括这个估值）结合起来时，除了看涨苹果之外，我看不到任何其他道路。</blockquote> I'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.<blockquote>我当然不是苹果的永久看涨者，但当我客观评估这家公司的前景和股票的前景时，我只能得出一个结论：这是一个正在创下历史新高的买入。</blockquote>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n 来源：<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4472312-apple-heres-your-chance\">Seeking Alpha</a>\n为提升您的阅读体验，我们对本页面进行了排版优化\n\n\n</div>\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4472312-apple-heres-your-chance","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1183198352","content_text":"Summary\n\nAAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.\nThe company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.\nThe stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.\n\nAleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images\nThe selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected. A new COVID variant is never a good thing - for a variety of reasons - and the market sold first and asked questions later. The good news is that selling created some great entry points on leading stocks, and in this article, I'll update my views on technology mothership Apple(AAPL), which I believe just hit very strong support, and is now ready for a run to a new all-time high.\nApple has been a model portfolio stock in my Seeking Alpha Marketplace service,Timely Trader, since the service's inception, and by all evidence, appears poised to maintain its position. The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.\n\nWe'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.\nThe stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.\nIn short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.\nNow, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.\nIgnore the noise, Apple is still dominant\nApple's Q4 earnings showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.\nThere is evidence to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and China showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.\nKeep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?\nNow, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nWe can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.\nNow, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.\nSource: TIKR.com\nRevenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.\nBelow we have TTM gross margins and SG&A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.\nSource: TIKR.com\nSG&A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue.

Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed.

The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.<blockquote>苹果一直是我的Seeking Alpha Marketplace服务中的模型投资组合股票，及时交易者自该服务成立以来，从所有证据来看，似乎已准备好保持其地位。投资组合每月都会重新评估，以确保我们的资本得到有效部署，苹果也会继续削减。下面我将解释为什么围绕供应链的噪音就是这样，以及为什么该股将自己定位为在2022年持续走高。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/98a005c1e28b33227395e295eb4d3ac6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"812\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><blockquote></blockquote> We'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below.

A new COVID variant is never a good thing - for a variety of reasons - and the market sold first and asked questions later. The good news is that selling created some great entry points on leading stocks, and in this article, I'll update my views on technology mothership Apple(AAPL), which I believe just hit very strong support, and is now ready for a run to a new all-time high.\nApple has been a model portfolio stock in my Seeking Alpha Marketplace service,Timely Trader, since the service's inception, and by all evidence, appears poised to maintain its position. The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.\n\nWe'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.\nThe stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.\nIn short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.\nNow, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.\nIgnore the noise, Apple is still dominant\nApple's Q4 earnings showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.\nThere is evidence to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and China showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.\nKeep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?\nNow, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nWe can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.\nNow, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.\nSource: TIKR.com\nRevenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.\nBelow we have TTM gross margins and SG&A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.\nSource: TIKR.com\nSG&A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.\nThe bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.\nSwitching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.\nSource: TIKR.com\nWe can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.\nWe therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nThis is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.\nValuation reset creates a buying chance\nNow, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years.

In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.<blockquote>考虑到该公司的增长轨迹，包括由于供应链问题，我们应该会看到一些从2021财年被压抑的需求转移到2022财年，我认为这个估值相当诱人。事实上，我认为28倍市盈率的上行潜力远大于下行潜力，因此当我们将技术面与基本面（包括这个估值）结合起来时，除了看涨苹果之外，我看不到任何其他道路。</blockquote> I'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.<blockquote>我当然不是苹果的永久看涨者，但当我客观评估这家公司的前景和股票的前景时，我只能得出一个结论：这是一个正在创下历史新高的买入。</blockquote>","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>Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote></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: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\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\">\nApple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nSeeking Alpha2021-11-30 20:14\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nSummary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected. A new COVID variant is never a good thing - for a variety of reasons - and the market sold first and asked questions later. The good news is that selling created some great entry points on leading stocks, and in this article, I'll update my views on technology mothership&nbsp;Apple(AAPL), which I believe just hit very strong support, and is now ready for a run to a new all-time high.<blockquote>上周五发生的抛售当然出乎意料。出于各种原因，新的COVID变体从来都不是一件好事，市场先卖，后问问题。好消息是，抛售为龙头股创造了一些很好的切入点，在本文中，我将更新我对科技母舰的看法苹果（AAPL），我相信它刚刚触及非常强劲的支撑，现在已准备好创下历史新高。</blockquote> Apple has been a model portfolio stock in my Seeking Alpha Marketplace service,Timely Trader, since the service's inception, and by all evidence, appears poised to maintain its position. The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.<blockquote>苹果一直是我的Seeking Alpha Marketplace服务中的模型投资组合股票，及时交易者自该服务成立以来，从所有证据来看，似乎已准备好保持其地位。投资组合每月都会重新评估，以确保我们的资本得到有效部署，苹果也会继续削减。下面我将解释为什么围绕供应链的噪音就是这样，以及为什么该股将自己定位为在2022年持续走高。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/98a005c1e28b33227395e295eb4d3ac6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"812\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><blockquote></blockquote> We'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?<blockquote>现在，我们都知道很多不同股票的估值在很多地方都过高，苹果也不例外。我们可以在下面看到，目前其远期市盈率为28倍，而三年平均市盈率为23倍。然而，它远低于37倍的高点，我认为，鉴于其收入和利润率的加速增长，苹果的估值应该比过去三年更高。简单的事实是，公司的盈利流已经大大改善，那么估值为什么不应该呢？</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3375c0e3b0081634279d2f828195612\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Given the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing.

The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.\nSource: TIKR.com\nWe can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.\nWe therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nThis is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.\nValuation reset creates a buying chance\nNow, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?\nSource: TIKR.com\nGiven the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.\nI'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":6785508,"gmtCreate":1638279497474,"gmtModify":1638279497508,"authorId":3579572647008782,"author":{"id":3579572647008782,"idStr":"3579572647008782","authorId":3579572647008782,"name":"Mtan23","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/21a2ddfc414d0d3eab50e895e776bf23","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":609633796,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Yes","text":"Yes","html":"Yes"}],"langContent":"CN"},{"id":609697803,"gmtCreate":1638275903221,"gmtModify":1638275903340,"author":{"id":"3586981337504184","authorId":"3586981337504184","name":"wyin08","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"wearingBadges":[],"authorIdStr":"3586981337504184","idStr":"3586981337504184"},"htmlText":"Pls like","listText":"Pls like","text":"Pls like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/609697803","repostId":1183198352,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1183198352","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1638274451,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1183198352?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-30 20:14","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1183198352","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"Summary\n\nAAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.\nThe","content":"Summary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected.

First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?<blockquote>现在，我们都知道很多不同股票的估值在很多地方都过高，苹果也不例外。我们可以在下面看到，目前其远期市盈率为28倍，而三年平均市盈率为23倍。然而，它远低于37倍的高点，我认为，鉴于其收入和利润率的加速增长，苹果的估值应该比过去三年更高。简单的事实是，公司的盈利流已经大大改善，那么估值为什么不应该呢？</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3375c0e3b0081634279d2f828195612\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Given the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.<blockquote>考虑到该公司的增长轨迹，包括由于供应链问题，我们应该会看到一些从2021财年被压抑的需求转移到2022财年，我认为这个估值相当诱人。事实上，我认为28倍市盈率的上行潜力远大于下行潜力，因此当我们将技术面与基本面（包括这个估值）结合起来时，除了看涨苹果之外，我看不到任何其他道路。</blockquote> I'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.<blockquote>我当然不是苹果的永久看涨者，但当我客观评估这家公司的前景和股票的前景时，我只能得出一个结论：这是一个正在创下历史新高的买入。</blockquote>","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>Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote></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: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\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\">\nApple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nSeeking Alpha2021-11-30 20:14\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nSummary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected.

That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?<blockquote>现在，我们都知道很多不同股票的估值在很多地方都过高，苹果也不例外。我们可以在下面看到，目前其远期市盈率为28倍，而三年平均市盈率为23倍。然而，它远低于37倍的高点，我认为，鉴于其收入和利润率的加速增长，苹果的估值应该比过去三年更高。简单的事实是，公司的盈利流已经大大改善，那么估值为什么不应该呢？</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3375c0e3b0081634279d2f828195612\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Given the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.<blockquote>考虑到该公司的增长轨迹，包括由于供应链问题，我们应该会看到一些从2021财年被压抑的需求转移到2022财年，我认为这个估值相当诱人。事实上，我认为28倍市盈率的上行潜力远大于下行潜力，因此当我们将技术面与基本面（包括这个估值）结合起来时，除了看涨苹果之外，我看不到任何其他道路。</blockquote> I'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.<blockquote>我当然不是苹果的永久看涨者，但当我客观评估这家公司的前景和股票的前景时，我只能得出一个结论：这是一个正在创下历史新高的买入。</blockquote>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n 来源：<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4472312-apple-heres-your-chance\">Seeking Alpha</a>\n为提升您的阅读体验，我们对本页面进行了排版优化\n\n\n</div>\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4472312-apple-heres-your-chance","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1183198352","content_text":"Summary\n\nAAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.\nThe company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.\nThe stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.\n\nAleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images\nThe selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected.

Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?<blockquote>现在，我们都知道很多不同股票的估值在很多地方都过高，苹果也不例外。我们可以在下面看到，目前其远期市盈率为28倍，而三年平均市盈率为23倍。然而，它远低于37倍的高点，我认为，鉴于其收入和利润率的加速增长，苹果的估值应该比过去三年更高。简单的事实是，公司的盈利流已经大大改善，那么估值为什么不应该呢？</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3375c0e3b0081634279d2f828195612\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Given the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.<blockquote>考虑到该公司的增长轨迹，包括由于供应链问题，我们应该会看到一些从2021财年被压抑的需求转移到2022财年，我认为这个估值相当诱人。事实上，我认为28倍市盈率的上行潜力远大于下行潜力，因此当我们将技术面与基本面（包括这个估值）结合起来时，除了看涨苹果之外，我看不到任何其他道路。</blockquote> I'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.<blockquote>我当然不是苹果的永久看涨者，但当我客观评估这家公司的前景和股票的前景时，我只能得出一个结论：这是一个正在创下历史新高的买入。</blockquote>","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>Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote></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: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\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\">\nApple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nSeeking Alpha2021-11-30 20:14\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nSummary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected.

The good news is that selling created some great entry points on leading stocks, and in this article, I'll update my views on technology mothership&nbsp;Apple(AAPL), which I believe just hit very strong support, and is now ready for a run to a new all-time high.<blockquote>上周五发生的抛售当然出乎意料。出于各种原因，新的COVID变体从来都不是一件好事，市场先卖，后问问题。好消息是，抛售为龙头股创造了一些很好的切入点，在本文中，我将更新我对科技母舰的看法苹果（AAPL），我相信它刚刚触及非常强劲的支撑，现在已准备好创下历史新高。</blockquote> Apple has been a model portfolio stock in my Seeking Alpha Marketplace service,Timely Trader, since the service's inception, and by all evidence, appears poised to maintain its position. The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.<blockquote>苹果一直是我的Seeking Alpha Marketplace服务中的模型投资组合股票，及时交易者自该服务成立以来，从所有证据来看，似乎已准备好保持其地位。投资组合每月都会重新评估，以确保我们的资本得到有效部署，苹果也会继续削减。下面我将解释为什么围绕供应链的噪音就是这样，以及为什么该股将自己定位为在2022年持续走高。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/98a005c1e28b33227395e295eb4d3ac6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"812\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><blockquote></blockquote> We'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut.

It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years.

A new COVID variant is never a good thing - for a variety of reasons - and the market sold first and asked questions later. The good news is that selling created some great entry points on leading stocks, and in this article, I'll update my views on technology mothership Apple(AAPL), which I believe just hit very strong support, and is now ready for a run to a new all-time high.\nApple has been a model portfolio stock in my Seeking Alpha Marketplace service,Timely Trader, since the service's inception, and by all evidence, appears poised to maintain its position. The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.\n\nWe'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.\nThe stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.\nIn short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.\nNow, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.\nIgnore the noise, Apple is still dominant\nApple's Q4 earnings showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.\nThere is evidence to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and China showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.\nKeep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?\nNow, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nWe can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.\nNow, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.\nSource: TIKR.com\nRevenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.\nBelow we have TTM gross margins and SG&A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.\nSource: TIKR.com\nSG&A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.\nThe bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.\nSwitching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.\nSource: TIKR.com\nWe can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.\nWe therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nThis is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.\nValuation reset creates a buying chance\nNow, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different.

I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher.

We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?<blockquote>现在，我们都知道很多不同股票的估值在很多地方都过高，苹果也不例外。我们可以在下面看到，目前其远期市盈率为28倍，而三年平均市盈率为23倍。然而，它远低于37倍的高点，我认为，鉴于其收入和利润率的加速增长，苹果的估值应该比过去三年更高。简单的事实是，公司的盈利流已经大大改善，那么估值为什么不应该呢？</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3375c0e3b0081634279d2f828195612\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Given the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing.

A new COVID variant is never a good thing - for a variety of reasons - and the market sold first and asked questions later. The good news is that selling created some great entry points on leading stocks, and in this article, I'll update my views on technology mothership&nbsp;Apple(AAPL), which I believe just hit very strong support, and is now ready for a run to a new all-time high.<blockquote>上周五发生的抛售当然出乎意料。出于各种原因，新的COVID变体从来都不是一件好事，市场先卖，后问问题。好消息是，抛售为龙头股创造了一些很好的切入点，在本文中，我将更新我对科技母舰的看法苹果（AAPL），我相信它刚刚触及非常强劲的支撑，现在已准备好创下历史新高。</blockquote> Apple has been a model portfolio stock in my Seeking Alpha Marketplace service,Timely Trader, since the service's inception, and by all evidence, appears poised to maintain its position. The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.<blockquote>苹果一直是我的Seeking Alpha Marketplace服务中的模型投资组合股票，及时交易者自该服务成立以来，从所有证据来看，似乎已准备好保持其地位。投资组合每月都会重新评估，以确保我们的资本得到有效部署，苹果也会继续削减。下面我将解释为什么围绕供应链的噪音就是这样，以及为什么该股将自己定位为在2022年持续走高。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/98a005c1e28b33227395e295eb4d3ac6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"812\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><blockquote></blockquote> We'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS.

I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.\nNow, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.\nSource: TIKR.com\nRevenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.\nBelow we have TTM gross margins and SG&A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.\nSource: TIKR.com\nSG&A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.\nThe bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.\nSwitching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.\nSource: TIKR.com\nWe can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.\nWe therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nThis is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.\nValuation reset creates a buying chance\nNow, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?\nSource: TIKR.com\nGiven the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.\nI'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":6785502,"gmtCreate":1638279450686,"gmtModify":1638279450721,"authorId":3568940106394782,"author":{"id":3568940106394782,"idStr":"3568940106394782","authorId":3568940106394782,"name":"Cheryi","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":609691620,"type":1,"supId":6784689,"prevId":0,"content":"Like","text":"Like","html":"Like"},{"id":6785023,"gmtCreate":1638277241209,"gmtModify":1638277241309,"authorId":3576212227172632,"author":{"id":3576212227172632,"idStr":"3576212227172632","authorId":3576212227172632,"name":"ToTheMOON","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7769f4b8d26aa1903d8784e79b05b4df","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":609691620,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Ok","text":"Ok","html":"Ok"},{"id":6784689,"gmtCreate":1638275057836,"gmtModify":1638275057863,"authorId":3563577781679506,"author":{"id":3563577781679506,"idStr":"3563577781679506","authorId":3563577781679506,"name":"3fa73483","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/default-avatar2.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":609691620,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Ok","text":"Ok","html":"Ok"}],"langContent":"CN"},{"id":609693017,"gmtCreate":1638274666263,"gmtModify":1638274666521,"author":{"id":"3572916667219493","authorId":"3572916667219493","name":"Zarkness","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4b8c61830c4883c4232aece921d89d14","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"wearingBadges":[],"authorIdStr":"3572916667219493","idStr":"3572916667219493"},"htmlText":"Yes","listText":"Yes","text":"Yes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/609693017","repostId":1183198352,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1183198352","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1638274451,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1183198352?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-30 20:14","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1183198352","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"Summary\n\nAAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.\nThe","content":"Summary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected. A new COVID variant is never a good thing - for a variety of reasons - and the market sold first and asked questions later. The good news is that selling created some great entry points on leading stocks, and in this article, I'll update my views on technology mothership&nbsp;Apple(AAPL), which I believe just hit very strong support, and is now ready for a run to a new all-time high.<blockquote>上周五发生的抛售当然出乎意料。出于各种原因，新的COVID变体从来都不是一件好事，市场先卖，后问问题。好消息是，抛售为龙头股创造了一些很好的切入点，在本文中，我将更新我对科技母舰的看法苹果（AAPL），我相信它刚刚触及非常强劲的支撑，现在已准备好创下历史新高。</blockquote> Apple has been a model portfolio stock in my Seeking Alpha Marketplace service,Timely Trader, since the service's inception, and by all evidence, appears poised to maintain its position. The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.<blockquote>苹果一直是我的Seeking Alpha Marketplace服务中的模型投资组合股票，及时交易者自该服务成立以来，从所有证据来看，似乎已准备好保持其地位。投资组合每月都会重新评估，以确保我们的资本得到有效部署，苹果也会继续削减。下面我将解释为什么围绕供应链的噪音就是这样，以及为什么该股将自己定位为在2022年持续走高。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/98a005c1e28b33227395e295eb4d3ac6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"812\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><blockquote></blockquote> We'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher.

And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period.

These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be.

In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.<blockquote>考虑到该公司的增长轨迹，包括由于供应链问题，我们应该会看到一些从2021财年被压抑的需求转移到2022财年，我认为这个估值相当诱人。事实上，我认为28倍市盈率的上行潜力远大于下行潜力，因此当我们将技术面与基本面（包括这个估值）结合起来时，除了看涨苹果之外，我看不到任何其他道路。</blockquote> I'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.<blockquote>我当然不是苹果的永久看涨者，但当我客观评估这家公司的前景和股票的前景时，我只能得出一个结论：这是一个正在创下历史新高的买入。</blockquote>","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>Apple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote></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: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\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\">\nApple Stock: Here's Your Chance To Buy<blockquote>苹果股票：这是你买入的机会</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nSeeking Alpha2021-11-30 20:14\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nSummary<blockquote>总结</blockquote> <ul> <li>AAPL has returned to strong price support, and I believe it will turn higher from here.</li> <li>The company's fundamentals continue to improve in a variety of ways, and supply chain issues are just noise.</li> <li>The stock is a buy and I believe will make new all-time highs in the relatively near future.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eee640d38ca964a8a25d978d1f858293\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">AleksandarNakic/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images<blockquote><ul><li>AAPL已经回到了强劲的价格支撑，我相信它会从这里转高。</li><li>公司基本面以多种方式持续改善，供应链问题只是噪音。</li><li>该股值得买入，我相信在不久的将来将创下历史新高。</li></ul>AleksandarNakic/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</blockquote> The selloff that took place last Friday was certainly unexpected. A new COVID variant is never a good thing - for a variety of reasons - and the market sold first and asked questions later. The good news is that selling created some great entry points on leading stocks, and in this article, I'll update my views on technology mothership&nbsp;Apple(AAPL), which I believe just hit very strong support, and is now ready for a run to a new all-time high.<blockquote>上周五发生的抛售当然出乎意料。出于各种原因，新的COVID变体从来都不是一件好事，市场先卖，后问问题。好消息是，抛售为龙头股创造了一些很好的切入点，在本文中，我将更新我对科技母舰的看法苹果（AAPL），我相信它刚刚触及非常强劲的支撑，现在已准备好创下历史新高。</blockquote> Apple has been a model portfolio stock in my Seeking Alpha Marketplace service,Timely Trader, since the service's inception, and by all evidence, appears poised to maintain its position. The portfolio is re-evaluated every month to ensure our capital is deployed effectively, and Apple continues to make the cut. Below I'll explain why the noise around the supply chain is just that, and why the stock has positioned itself for continued highs into 2022.<blockquote>苹果一直是我的Seeking Alpha Marketplace服务中的模型投资组合股票，及时交易者自该服务成立以来，从所有证据来看，似乎已准备好保持其地位。投资组合每月都会重新评估，以确保我们的资本得到有效部署，苹果也会继续削减。下面我将解释为什么围绕供应链的噪音就是这样，以及为什么该股将自己定位为在2022年持续走高。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/98a005c1e28b33227395e295eb4d3ac6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"812\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><blockquote></blockquote> We'll take a brief look at the chart, because I think this pretty clearly illustrates why Apple is a buy right now. First, the stock made a new all-time high earlier this month on very heavy volume, which is a bullish trait. It means buyers were out in force while the share price was rising, indicating a lot of market participation with the new high. That coincided with a new high in the accumulation/distribution line, which measures whether the stock is finishing nearer to the high or low for the day. A higher A/D line means buyers are active during the day, and is another bullish trait; Apple is exhibiting this as well.<blockquote>我们将简单看一下图表，因为我认为这非常清楚地说明了为什么苹果现在值得买入。首先，该股本月早些时候因成交量非常大而创下历史新高，这是一个看涨特征。这意味着当股价上涨时，买家大量出局，表明市场参与度创新高。这与累积/分配线的新高相吻合，该线衡量股票收盘是接近当天的高点还是低点。较高的A/D线意味着买家在白天活跃，是另一个看涨特征；苹果也在展示这一点。</blockquote> The stock was overbought during the rally - as measured by the 14-day RSI - but has since pulled back meaningfully during this consolidation. That's completely expected and totally fine, as it means the bulls can now make another run higher. And finally, the PPO is in very bullish territory, and is continuing to move higher, so I see no issues with momentum despite the recent pullback.<blockquote>根据14天RSI衡量，该股在反弹期间处于超买状态，但此后在盘整期间大幅回调。这完全在意料之中，也完全没问题，因为这意味着多头现在可以再次走高。最后，PPO处于非常看涨的区域，并且正在继续走高，因此尽管最近出现回调，但我认为势头没有问题。</blockquote> In short, Apple's chart looks great, and with support at ~$157, which was the prior breakout level, as well as the rising 20-day EMA (in red above), I see a lot of reasons to be bullish today.<blockquote>简而言之，苹果的图表看起来很棒，支撑位约为157美元（这是之前的突破水平），以及上升的20日均线（上面红色），我今天看到了很多看涨的理由。</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at the fundamental case for Apple, which I think remains as strong as it has ever been.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看苹果的基本情况，我认为它仍然一如既往地强劲。</blockquote> Ignore the noise, Apple is still dominant<blockquote>忽略杂音，苹果仍占优势</blockquote> Apple's&nbsp;Q4 earnings&nbsp;showed a rare revenue miss and profit number that was only in line with expectations, which is quite unusual for this juggernaut. However, as we all know, Apple and others are being heavily impacted by supply chain woes that have absolutely taken over the conversation when it comes to the economy in recent months. Apple, like any other manufacturer, needs its supply chain to be functioning at full speed in order to maximize revenue, but these things are largely out of its control. Apple suffered for that in Q4, but instead of focusing on the report itself, which you can read all about in a variety of places, let's look at how Apple may respond in the fiscal year that just began.<blockquote>苹果第四季度财报显示，收入罕见地低于预期，利润数据仅符合预期，这对于这家巨头来说是很不寻常的。然而，众所周知，苹果和其他国家正受到供应链困境的严重影响，近几个月来，供应链困境绝对占据了经济话题。与任何其他制造商一样，苹果需要其供应链全速运转，以实现收入最大化，但这些事情在很大程度上超出了其控制范围。苹果在第四季度因此遭受了损失，但与其关注报告本身（您可以在多个地方阅读有关该报告的所有内容），不如让我们看看苹果在刚刚开始的财年可能会如何应对。</blockquote> There is&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;to suggest that Apple's supply chain issues that negatively impacted the fourth quarter, and indeed, October as well, are abating. Keep in mind that Apple's suppliers have massive incentives to keep their components flowing to Apple to make phones and other devices, so there are literally thousands of people across the world working to address Apple's supply chain issues. With the iPhone 13 cycle ramping up, and&nbsp;China&nbsp;showing strong demand for Apple products once again, all looks well.<blockquote>有证据表明，对第四季度乃至10月份产生负面影响的苹果供应链问题正在减弱。请记住，苹果的供应商有巨大的动力让他们的零部件流向苹果制造手机和其他设备，因此世界各地实际上有成千上万的人致力于解决苹果的供应链问题。随着iPhone 13周期的加速，以及中国对苹果产品的强劲需求再次显现，一切看起来都很好。</blockquote> Keep in mind also that selling the stock because Apple cannot keep up with demand is a bit counterintuitive. Generally, you want to sell stocks that have too much supply and not enough demand; Apple has the opposite problem, which indicates two things. First, pricing power should remain quite strong given the demand/supply imbalance, and second, when supply does catch up to demand, we'll see higher volumes at strong prices. Why would you sell a stock with these characteristics?<blockquote>还要记住，因为苹果跟不上需求而出售股票有点违反直觉。一般你要卖出供给过多而需求不足的股票；苹果有相反的问题，这表明了两件事。首先，鉴于需求/供应不平衡，定价权应该保持相当强，其次，当供应赶上需求时，我们将看到价格强劲的销量增加。您为什么要出售具有这些特征的股票？</blockquote> Now, let's take a look at revenue estimates to see how analysts see Apple moving forward given the supply chain issues are well-known.<blockquote>现在，让我们来看看收入预测，看看鉴于供应链问题众所周知，分析师如何看待苹果的未来发展。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ee0e69bc003794d9ef8a801403a88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> We can see that Apple's estimates continue to move up and to the right, although one could argue the pace of increases has slowed. That's okay, because the important thing is that we continue to see higher and higher revenue estimates for the years to come. I'd also offer that Apple has generally performed quite well against revenue estimates, which is why Q4's revenue miss took people by surprise. I'll reiterate the revenue miss was due to supply chain issues outside of the company's control, and therefore shouldn't be blown out of proportion; it's transitory.<blockquote>我们可以看到苹果的估计继续向上和向右移动，尽管有人可能会说增加的速度已经放缓。没关系，因为重要的是我们继续看到未来几年的收入预期越来越高。我还想说，苹果的收入预期总体表现相当不错，这就是为什么第四季度的收入低于预期让人们感到惊讶。我要重申的是，收入下滑是由于公司无法控制的供应链问题造成的，因此不应该被夸大；只是暂时的。</blockquote> Now, another key to the bull thesis is that Apple's margins are&nbsp;flying, which we can see below. I've plotted trailing-twelve-months revenue and operating margins to illustrate how operating leverage is working for Apple.<blockquote>现在，牛市论点的另一个关键是苹果的利润率飞行，我们可以在下面看到。我绘制了过去12个月的收入和营业利润率，以说明营业杠杆如何为苹果发挥作用。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbaba8826e257af5666c27d29b2f18cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"167\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Revenue on a TTM basis was actually pretty flat for a couple of years, but in the past handful of quarters, has flown higher. With that, operating margins have moved significantly higher as well, with the September 2020 quarter posting 24% operating margins, while this year's September quarter posting TTM margins of 30%. That's a 25% increase in the amount of profit per dollar of revenue Apple produces, which is enormous to say the least. And as we'll see in just a moment, those gains look set to continue.<blockquote>基于TTM的收入实际上几年来相当持平，但在过去几个季度中，收入有所上升。因此，营业利润率也大幅上升，2020年9月季度的营业利润率为24%，而今年9月季度的TTM利润率为30%。这意味着苹果每一美元收入的利润增加了25%，至少可以说这是巨大的。正如我们稍后将看到的，这些收益似乎将继续下去。</blockquote> Below we have TTM gross margins and SG&amp;A costs, which are the two main components of operating margins, to illustrate how Apple has achieved its profitability gains.<blockquote>下面我们以TTM毛利率和SG&amp;A成本（营业利润率的两个主要组成部分）来说明苹果如何实现盈利增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af4bc2b49806742ed776ba5e76577543\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"166\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> SG&amp;A costs have declined from just over 7% of revenue to only 6% of revenue as of the most recent quarter, while gross margins are up from ~38% to ~42% in the same period. That means Apple is gaining on both sides of the equation, showing strong margins through pricing power, and reducing relative costs to produce revenue. This is how Apple has managed to boost profitability so much in the past few quarters, and it all hinges upon higher revenue.<blockquote>截至最近一个季度，SG&amp;A成本已从略高于收入的7%下降至仅6%，而同期毛利率从约38%上升至约42%。这意味着苹果在等式的两边都获得了收益，通过定价权显示出强劲的利润率，并降低了产生收入的相对成本。这就是苹果在过去几个季度大幅提高盈利能力的原因，而这一切都取决于更高的收入。</blockquote> The bottom line is that so long as revenue is rising, we should see steady or higher gross margins, and lower SG&amp;A costs. These things combine to create higher profitability per dollar of revenue, so we get this supercharged impact on earnings growth where revenue is higher, and the profit per dollar is higher. If you're an Apple bull, you want to keep your eye on revenue because it's driving everything.<blockquote>最重要的是，只要收入在增长，我们就应该看到稳定或更高的毛利率，以及更低的SG&amp;A成本。这些因素结合起来创造了更高的每美元收入的盈利能力，因此当收入更高、每美元利润更高时，我们会对盈利增长产生巨大影响。如果您看好苹果，您会希望关注收入，因为它推动了一切。</blockquote> Switching gears, Apple has been a very strong returner of capital in recent years, and that is no different today. The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.<blockquote>换个角度来看，苹果近年来一直是一个非常强大的资本回报者，今天也没有什么不同。目前股息相当小且毫无意义，但公司减少流通量的努力却绝非如此。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02926f966d571a5d9af3865b5534bd75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"168\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> We can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.<blockquote>我们可以看到股票数量是降低36%与2012年相比，这意味着按每股计算，苹果的收益比其他情况下高出36%。苹果拥有的现金远远超过了对该业务进行再投资的盈利能力，而且每年的产量都在增加。这意味着我们几乎肯定会看到这一数字继续减少，每年都会为每股收益提供持续的推动力。</blockquote> We therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.<blockquote>因此，我们的收入不断增长，利润率不断上升，股票数量不断减少，所有这些都支持更高的每股收益。因此，苹果的每股收益修正看起来是这样也就不足为奇了。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b562a3b59264989d5077b069db4633ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Seeking Alpha<blockquote>资料来源：寻求阿尔法</blockquote> This is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.<blockquote>这正是你想看到的，它是一家公司的产品，不断超越预期，明智地向股东返还资本，并继续创造和营销消费者百看不厌的世界级产品。</blockquote> Valuation reset creates a buying chance<blockquote>估值重置创造买入机会</blockquote> Now, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?<blockquote>现在，我们都知道很多不同股票的估值在很多地方都过高，苹果也不例外。我们可以在下面看到，目前其远期市盈率为28倍，而三年平均市盈率为23倍。然而，它远低于37倍的高点，我认为，鉴于其收入和利润率的加速增长，苹果的估值应该比过去三年更高。简单的事实是，公司的盈利流已经大大改善，那么估值为什么不应该呢？</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3375c0e3b0081634279d2f828195612\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: TIKR.com<blockquote>来源：TIKR.com</blockquote> Given the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing.

The dividend is pretty small and meaningless at this point, but the company's efforts to reduce the float are anything but.\nSource: TIKR.com\nWe can see the share count is36% lowerthan it was in 2012, which means that on a per-share basis, Apple's earnings are worth 36% more than they otherwise would be. Apple has far more cash than it could ever profitably reinvest in the business, and it produces more and more every year. That means we'll almost certainly see this continue to dwindle, providing a constant tailwind to EPS every year.\nWe therefore have ever-rising revenue, rising margins, and a lower share count, all of which support higher EPS. It is no surprise then that Apple's EPS revisions look the way they do.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nThis is exactly what you want to see, and it's the product of a company that continues to outperform expectations, intelligently return capital to shareholders, and continue to create and market world-class products that consumers cannot get enough of.\nValuation reset creates a buying chance\nNow, we all know valuations are stretched in a lot of places for a lot of different stocks, and Apple is no different. We can see below that its forward PE is 28X today, versus a three-year average of 23X. However, it's well off its high of 37X, and I'd argue that given its acceleration of revenue and margins, Apple should be more highly valued than it was in the past three years. The simple fact is that the company's earnings stream has improved greatly, so why shouldn't the valuation?\nSource: TIKR.com\nGiven the company's growth trajectory, and including the fact that we should see some pent-up demand from fiscal 2021 moved into fiscal 2022 due to supply chain issues, I see this valuation as quite enticing. In fact, I think there's a lot more upside potential to 28X earnings than there is downside potential, so when we combine the technical picture with the fundamentals - including this valuation - I cannot see any path other than a bullish one for Apple.\nI'm certainly no Apple perma-bull, but when I objectively evaluate this company's prospects and the outlook for the stock, I can only reach one conclusion: it's a buy on its way to new all-time highs.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"CN"}],"hasMoreComments":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":85,"commentSize":13,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"isCrawlerRequest":true}
