以為韓劇先有嘅故事

三十年前，James呢個讀小二嘅細路，鍾意咗一個女仔，為咗吸引對方注意，所以就應承老師响學校聖誕話劇做Joseph，可惜當時做Mary嘅「女主角」並唔係佢鍾意嗰個，而係細佢兩年嘅Rose。

之後十幾年，呢對男女主角嘅响現實生活嘅角色就只係同校唔同班嘅同學，直到大學時期，Rose就考入咗James讀嗰間University of Westminister，重遇之後兩個人就拍拖，不過好快就因為Rose識咗另一個而分手。

之後又過咗十五年，响2017年，Rose同James因為再一次重遇，再拍拖。

今日，40歲嘅James同38歲嘅Rose，呢對三十年前嘅男女主角正式結婚。

“Not in a million years did we think when we were just children that we would be getting married. It was just perfect timing, it couldn’t have been better. It shows how small a world it is."

今天, 應該是最炫最酷的一家公司, Robinhood, 上市的一天. 它獲利了嗎? 我想沒有多少投資人會care. 最關心的, 應該是它的營收成長率, 還有股價.

在我們一直追逐科技成長股, 被他們的高營收成長率, 潛在的高報酬昏眩的時候, 會不會忘記他們醜得要命的財務報表?

而在今年, 大家追逐的這些趨勢股表現不佳的時候, 是不是也給了我們一些省思?

其實美股中, 還有很多財務報表漂亮, 但聽起來一點也不有趣(甚至很無聊)的公司, 但他們股價穩定, 長期下來, 也給了投資人很大的回報. 像之前介紹過的POOL, 過去幾年也是平均一年翻一倍的漲幅.

而在IPO中, 也有這類的好公司.

Carrier Global(CARR), 2020年4月上市的IPO, 算是工業類股, 漲了快5倍. 有在獲利. (開利冷氣應該有聽過?就是這家公司)

Academy Sports and Outdoors (ASO), 民生消費股, 也有獲利, 2020年10月上市的IPO, 目前也漲了3倍.

下面這篇文章挺好. 與大家分享. 就像文章作者所提的, 龜兔賽跑, 穩(漲)的烏龜, 不一定會輸.

也祝福大家找到&培養自己的能力圈, 穩穩獲利.

Jim Cramer: The Biggest Thing That Happened Thursday Was the Boring Stuff

No, it wasn't Robinhood or the mega-cap tech companies, it was names we depend on like Carrier Global.
By JIM CRAMER Jul 29, 2021 | 03:38 PM EDT

Stocks quotes in this article: HOOD, FB, PYPL, CARR, RTX, NUE, AGCO, ZM, ALGN, AAPL, EBAY, AMD, XLNX

One of the most glorious things I have seen involving the stock market in ages happened today.

Was it Vlad Tenev ringing the opening bell for his breakthrough, disruptive Robinhood (HOOD) , representing 22 million mostly young new investors? Was it the free-for-all decline in the stock of the "F" in FAANG, Facebook (FB) ? Or the clobbering that Paypal (PYPL) took after what looked to be a good quarter?

Nah. I was bumping into Dave Gitlin, CEO of Carrier Global (CARR) , and his charming daughter, a college student at the University of Wisconsin. They were calmly waiting for me to finish "Squawk on the Street" to say, "Hi," and I couldn't be more thrilled. Because unlike the much ballyhooed Robinhood deal, which seems like a bust, Carrier Global came public back in April 2020 at $12 and today, after tremendous earnings, not sales, but earnings, it made an all-time high at $53, after reporting a terrific number with tremendous HVAC sales, up 31%, and an earnings surprise of 55 cents vs. the 30 cents that Wall Street was expecting.

Carrier, which was spun off when United Technologies merged with Raytheon (RTX) had some tailwinds, like the need to have clean air inside, because of the pandemic and clear air outside because office buildings are responsible for 40% of carbon emissions. But the huge upside surprise and the gigantic buyback belonged to Dave and his team and I that's what I told his daughter. I made sure she knew how proud she should be about how this man made so much money for people. Twelve to 53 in 15 months time is the name of the game.

Look, I am not trying to take away from anything that Robinhood and its co-founder and CEO Vlad Tenev have created. Far from it. They have created billions for themselves and are now letting people participate in their great sales growth. You got a chance to pay a fortune per share and many Robinhoodies did, as tons of stock was allocated to the 22 million people who joined Robinhood, because of a bang up app that every young person seems to know.

I am simply saying that HVAC, yep heating, ventilation and air conditioning is one of the most boring businesses on earth and at times like today, with all of the hoopla of Robinhood it is easy to forget is how lots of money can be made being boring, and I like that. The most exciting thing that happened this year is Carrier helped provide refrigeration for vaccines. That's just fine with me.

Unlike Robinhood, Carrier hasn't brought anyone into the stock market. It's more laser-like focus on air conditioning once spun off from Raytheon means nothing to people. Just Wall Street gibberish. But you have probably walked by a Carrier machine thousands of times and never thought anything of it. Yet, you could have bought it for a song at six times earnings instead of 25 times sales.

The Carriers, with CEOs who pay themselves lavishly but perhaps not excessively, or the Nucor's (NUE) the steel company that's also well managed and sells at six times earnings, represent valuable properties, especially when the U.S. government is about to agree on a trillion dollar infrastructure bill and the country has more than 6% GDP. We don't know why they are re-opening trades or closing trades, delta-variant trades or building and bridge investments. Forgive me, though for comparing the company of Robinhood, with something that may stay special for a while vs. companies that get described as venerable, solid and built to last.

These companies are not rarities. You know people have to eat, right? You know that there would be famine without farming. So why not buy the stock of Agco (AGCO) , No. 2 farm equipment, which went from $40 to $130 in a year and a half without ever being expensive. Combines too boring? Again fine with me. Now that the masks are off -- or at least in some places, although Zoom (ZM) is still crushing it -- I, like many others, including my daughter, didn't like how her teeth looked even as, to me, they were perfect. Dentists tell you to get Align (ALGN) . I wanted them on "Mad Money" but the show was just too darned jammed. The stock's up the most in the S&P 500, with a product that, again, like the Purloined Letter, is right in front of you.

I love tech. Created the term FANG, added the "A" when it was clear that Apple (AAPL) had to take the acronymic stage between another "A" and an "N." I am proud that those who bet against me on Twitter, the legion, are betting against FAANG. I wrote obituaries for a goodly time in my career as a reporter but I never wrote as many as have been penned to talk about the group has already made the ultimate measure on behalf of shareholders.

Oh and it's not like I don't like tech or fin tech. I felt the slings and arrows of Facebook and PayPal today. Facebook's management once again lowered the boom on its future talking about real deceleration in growth. I thought it was too dire. PayPal's Dan Schulman talked about how the separation with its former partner, eBay (EBAY) gets done now and earnings will be hurt. This was one of the least revelatory surprises ever. I think both are practicing UPOD, Underpromising to Overdeliver, and, sure this time might be different, but it's sure been the way they have handled it in the past.

Far better to be in the straight out blow outs like Advance Micro (AMD) which had still one more banner day, this time because the company it is buying, the dowdy Xilinx (XLNX) , a sleepy semiconductor company, had tremendous earnings. The two together could be unassailable and even as AMD is now richly valued it is deservingly so.

I can't wait to hear Vlad Tenev's reflection on Robinhood's debut as a public company and about the novel offering that gave millions of shares to his clients. Vlad's not so much a rags to riches American story. He's a poor Bulgarian to insanely rich American because of his on ingenuity. That's a story with celebrating in itself.

I am simply pointing out that unlike Vlad, whom you would have had invested with when you weren't allowed or able to, Dave Gitlin sure didn't keep you out of the better bet, the stock of HVAC king Carrier.

You did.

I always wanted to have a dog since very young. Not that many people had ideas about shibas 14 years ago. I researched and studied a lot the books I bought about shibas. Been bumping into different pet shops and I finally met Yakult Papa. I paid several visits to see him, he barked at me always. I thought that’s destiny, I thought he’s smart and brave just like how the books described!
.
Eventually, I decided to bring the 4 month old Yakult home on my birthday 14 years ago! WTF, I found I was totally cheated, no matter how I pulled the leash he just shut down. He escaped and pulled hardly when I tried to carry him. Finally we were in the taxi, but he was so terrified and pee and poo badly on the seat..... Sorry, taxi driver 🙇🏻‍♂️
.
年輕的時候，總很想擁有自己的狗狗，等到自己搬出來住之後便做了這個決定。14年前根本沒有太多人認識什麼是柴犬，我做了好多資料蒐集，買了很多關於柴犬的書，自此執迷不悟。走遍了很多間寵物店，遇上了Yakult爸爸，每次去探他的時候，他都會隔着玻璃對我吠叫，自覺這是緣份，自覺他很聰明勇敢，就像書上所說的一樣！
.
最後在14年前我的生日帶了4個多月大的他回家，誰知一出寵物店門口才知中伏..... 怎麼拉他也不肯走，想抱起他他又奮力掙扎，之後成功抱他上的士，誰知膽小鬼竟然怕到在車上開大又開細，還要是稀爛的，對不起司機大佬🙇🏻‍♂️

我想要送你Gucci 帶你做不法勾檔
在每個包廂問候一聲金董
Gold chains gold teeth gold ring tuff ego

Versace Versace Versace on my body
我活像一個土炮你卻對我行大禮
我知道我太酷太像你想成為的rapper
我不是蓋的你永遠學不來的

從現在開始說出你認為 最屌的三個rapper
dr.shrek - dr.shrek - dr.shrek forever bitch

Hey guys!
I recently attended my first little event since the pandemic and i can't express how happy i am to be socialising, bumping into familiar faces and meeting new people again. Also dressing up for an actual reason has been a plus. Hope you guys enjoy the few clips i took during the pre-fall women's ready to wear presentation as well as the very pink Louis Vuitton additions.

To answer the call together tonight
It’s electrified
