  5. Beyond Meat is expected to see increased capex spend and pandemic-induced disruptions weigh on earnings. Source: Bloomberg Shares Beyond Meat Price Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization Refinitiv Technical analysis When is Beyond Meat’s earnings date? Beyond Meat, the food company that offers plant-based meat, is expected to release earnings on 5 August 2021. The scheduled results will cover the group's second-quarter (Q2) and half-year earnings. Beyond Meat results preview: what does the Street expect? While Beyond Meat’s comparative quarter (Q2 2020) benefitted from a surge in sales as pandemic induced fears equated to bulk buying of products, the most recent quarter (Q2 2021) is expected to see supply chain disruptions amidst increased capital investment in product promotions having negatively affected group earnings. In turn, a high base of comparison meets an increased cost-based to keep earnings firmly within a loss-making territory. In terms of the upcoming results, a mean of analyst estimates compiled by Refinitiv data arrive at the following: Revenue: $140.77 million (+24.2% year on year) Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA): -$10.84 million Loss per share: $0.23 (+10.87% year on year) How to trade Beyond Meat results Source: Refinitiv A Refinitiv poll of analyst ratings has a long-term consensus rating of ‘hold’ for Beyond Meat, with a target price of $128.64. The current price trading relatively close to the longer-term analyst target suggests that the company currently trades near to what is deemed fair value. Beyond Meat share price: technical analysis The Beyond Meat share price has been trading in a broad range for the last nine months, with the lower level of support of this range at 102.00 and the upper level of resistance at 158.20. Source: IG charts In the near term, we see the price falling towards the 117.20 level. A close below this level would consider 102.00 the next downside support target from the move. Should the 117.20 level not be broken, and a bullish reversal manifests instead (supported by a sharp move out of oversold territory), 143.00 would become the favoured upside resistance target from the move. Summary Beyond Meat is scheduled to release Q2 2021 results on 5 August 2021 Revenue of $140.77 million is expected for the quarter A loss per share of $0.23 is expected for the quarter The average broker rating for Beyond Meat is ‘hold’ The mean of analyst price targets suggest $128.64 as long-term fair value The share price of Beyond Meat continues to trade within a broad range, between levels 102.00 and 158.2 Shaun Murison | Senior Market Analyst, Johannesburg 29 July 2021

  11. Tencent lost over 16% of its market cap this week, after Chinese authorities issued new directives and fines to its music division. Source: Bloomberg Shares Tencent Stock China Regulation Big Tech Tencent Holdings Ltd (HKG: 0700) shares slid a further 9% on Tuesday (27 July 2021) The internet giant’s stocks plunged 16.5% in just two sessions, amidst the Chinese government’s widening crackdown on the private sector The company was fined 500,000 yuan and ordered to dissolve all existing exclusive music deals within 30 days In terms of stock outlook, analysts see a 57% upside potential in the next 12 months Looking to trade Tencent shares? Open an account with us today to get started. Tencent stock price: why is it down? Tencent shares have plummeted over 16%, since the Chinese government ordered the company to cease all exclusive music streaming rights and licensing deals with record labels globally. On Saturday (24 July 2021), the Chinese technology giant was also fined 500,000 yuan (US$77,000) by authorities, following an official investigation which found that the company has engaged in monopolistic practices that gave it an unfair advantage over its competitors. The State Administration of Market Regulation (SAMR) said Tencent’s acquisition of Chinese Music Corporation in 2016 gave the firm access to over 80% of all music tracks in the music market. The deal, which helped to form Tencent Music Entertainment in the process, was also discovered to have flouted regulations due to a lack of reporting. The anti-competition agency also told Tencent that it must stop manipulating music copyright holders for exclusive rights such as by offering higher payments moving forward, and that it must dissolve all existing deals within 30 days. The company and its affiliates, however, can continue their exclusive deals with independent artists, which expire after three years. Tencent said in a statement that it ‘fully’ accepted the decision, and would ‘strictly follow the regulatory requirements’ and ‘fulfill our social responsibilities and contribute to healthy competition in the market’. How do analysts view the stock? Two weeks ago, it was reported that Tencent and fellow tech giant Alibaba Group were considering making their services available on each other’s platforms. IG market strategist Yeap Jun Rong then said that the potential tie-up implied that the landscape for China tech companies ‘may have shifted’. ‘Near-term, it may ease some concerns by showing that these big tech companies are taking steps to adhere to regulations, softening some regulatory risks from authorities,’ he said. ‘On the other hand, there may be some uncertainty on whether authorities will be satisfied with just this move, or whether there may still be more to come. There will also be some uncertainty revolving around the impact to growth potential by opening up to competition.’ Despite this air of ambiguity, Yeap was optimistic about China’s big tech stocks, adding that as more countries start to gain control over big tech firms, the playing field may ultimately be levelled for retail investors in the long run. Across the board, Tencent shares have a consensus rating of ‘buy’ and a price target of HK$699, according to the latest analyst data published by MarketBeat. The price target represents a potential 56.7% upside from the stock’s closing price of HK$446 on Tuesday. Feeling bullish about Tencent? Take a position on the stock today.

  12. NASDAQ 100, APPLE, MICROSOFT, ALPHABET, TECH EARNINGS, FEDERAL RESERVE - TALKING POINTS Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet all post blowout earnings reports after the closing bell Federal Reserve meeting slated for Wednesday, eyes on liftoff and taper talk China crackdown on tech continues, Hang Seng Index declines by over 4% Major US equity benchmarks declined on Tuesday as market participants prepared for a blockbuster slate of tech earnings after the closing bell. US indices posted their first declines in 5 sessions, all coming down from record highs achieved during Monday’s session. Major tech names posted blowout quarterly earnings after the bell, highlighted by Apple and Alphabet’s standout results. Risk-off sentiment in the US echoed further losses sustained during the APAC session, as Chinese tech stocks continued to stumble following a crackdown from Beijing. The Hang Seng Index declined by over 4%, taking the losses for the index to 9.56% in just the last 3 trading sessions. TECH EARNINGS SUMMARY Apple Q3 Results Revenues: $81.43 B vs. $73.30 B est. EPS: $1.30 vs. $1.01 est. Microsoft Q4 Results Revenues: $46.20 B vs. $44.26 B est. EPS: $2.17 vs. $1.92 est. Alphabet (Google) Q2 Results Revenues: $61.88 B vs. $56.23 B est. EPS: $27.26 vs. $19.35 est. NASDAQ 100 DAILY CHART Chart provided by TradingView The Nasdaq 100 Index has retreated from recent all-time highs despite the expectation for a strong earnings period for the index’s largest constituents. Prior to Tuesday’s decline, the relative strength index (RSI) for the index was at 71.26, indicating that overbought conditions were present. Despite falling to 14,800 during Tuesday’s session, the Nasdaq 100 Index rebounded into the close ahead of the highly anticipated earnings reports. With the largest tech firms all posting strong results, a retest of 15,000 and all-time highs may be in store. However market participants should proceed with caution given the magnitude of Wednesday’s FOMC meeting. Near-term direction may be determined by comments from Fed Chair Jerome Powell, not the fundamentals of underlying companies in the index. This earnings period has been extremely strong across the board, with 88% of S&P 500 constituents reporting a positive EPS surprise according to FactSet data. Should this trend continue, this would be the highest percentage since the metric began being tracked in 2008. Earnings may take a backseat on Wednesday as market participants turn their attention to the Federal Reserve’s interest rate decision. Fed Chair Jerome Powell will be pressed on the state of asset purchases, and whether the Federal Reserve Board of Governors has established a timeline for tapering. Market participants may also follow closely for comments on the “transitory” nature of inflation, along with the state of the Delta COVID variant. Prior to Wednesday’s meeting, the US 10Y Treasury yield declined to 1.24%.

  17. Hi @Mazaftm, The discrepancy between you available funds and your available funds to withdraw is due to the settlement period. If you sell shares it will take 2-3 days to settle, until then these funds will only reflect in your available funds and not the funds to withdraw. More details here. All the best - Arvin
  18. Hi @Mairi, On your screenshot, Limit means more favorable price and Day would be the expiry. "A limit order is an instruction to execute a trade at a level that is more favorable than the current market price." more details here. "A day order is defined as an instruction from a trader to their broker, to buy or sell a certain asset. Setting a day order means that the deal has to be executed if an asset hits a specified price (referred to as the level) at any point during the trading day on which the order is made. The day order will expire if the price specified in the order is not met by the time the market closes" more details here. I hope that the definitions help. All the best - Arvin
  19. SENTIMENT INDICATORS: USING IG CLIENT SENTIMENT The IG Client Sentiment (IGCS) is unique, proprietary and potentially helpful to traders. The article will outline the following illustrative points: What is IG Client Sentiment (IGCS)? Sentiment Indicators IGCS as a Leading Indicator IGCS as a Technical Indicator: Summary WHAT IS IG CLIENT SENTIMENT (IGCS)? IG Client Sentiment (IGCS) is a tool that traders can use in conjunction with a broader technical and/or fundamental strategy. IGCS incorporates retail trader positioning (long and short) to formulate a sentiment bias. This is represented in percentage form (see image below) which aids traders in identifying market imbalances which could lead to possible opportunities. IGCS on EUR/USD: SENTIMENT INDICATORS Sentiment indicators are few and far between. The two most well-known are open interest in options, which largely applies to stocks, and the Commitment of Traders Report (CoT). What sets IGCS apart is the large sample size of retail traders which deliver more usable data in terms of indicator readings, multiple market data sets (FX, equities commodities) and timely updates for these markets which are refreshed several times daily. IGCS AS A LEADING INDICATOR The use of IGCS as a technical indicator can allow traders to confirm or refute signals produced by their wider trading strategy. Both fundamental and other technical techniques are used to gauge trends, ranges, potential reversals etc. so incorporating IGCS provides another layer of data to help verify a hypothesis. IGCS can be considered as a leading indicator as it uses past and current data to project possible future price movements however, as IGCS (retail) covers only one component of the market equation, traders should not rely solely on the IGCS tool for trading decisions. Simply put, retail traders contribute only a certain percentage of market input so naturally other factors will have influence on the respective market. For example, the EUR/USD chart below shows the projectible nature that can occur with IGCS. The highlighted are on the chart exhibits an increase in net short positions from retail traders which coincided with a rise in price action (EUR appreciation) on the price chart itself. IGCS EUR/USD: IGCS AS A TECHNICAL INDICATOR: SUMMARY We have shown how sentiment/IGCS can be a unique, proprietary and potentially helpful addition to a trader’s approach. In subsequent IGCS articles in this market sentiment sub-module, we will go through the implementation and flexibility of this tool in varying trading circumstances.

  20. We highlight five things that investors and traders need to know on Monday, 26 July. Source: Bloomberg Forex Indices Shares Investor China Bitcoin Wall Street hits fresh record highs After what was a volatile week, US stocks managed to cap it off at fresh record highs on Friday night, with the Wall Street rallying by over 1% to crack the 4400 mark for the first time in history. The strength in the US stock market came off the back another rally in big-tech stocks, with the tech-heavy US Tech 100 also rallying to record highs and cracking the 15,000 mark. US earnings season delivering strong results Despite jitters about the growth outlook and the spread of the Covid-19 Delta variant, investors appear to be buoyed by what’s proving to be a very strong earnings season for US companies. Roughly a quarter through the reporting period, 86.7% of companies have delivered earnings beats, with the consensus estimate for annualized EPS growth for the quarter up to 74%. Investors prepare now for the busiest week of the reporting period in the week ahead, with approximately 36% of the S&P500 scheduled to deliver results. Amongst these will be the US tech titans, with Tesla Inc (All Sessions) the first (electric) cab off the rank to deliver earnings tomorrow morning. China tech stocks hammered on regulatory crackdown Chinese and Hang Seng TECH Index ETF shares have been hammered today, with the region’s tech stocks tumbling after China announced a crack-down on its private education companies. Chinese authorities have accused the sector of becoming “hijacked by capital”, and has outlined rules that will keep these companies from raising capital or turning a profit. The decision comes as China looks to tighten regulations against its tech-sector, with this move the latest to spook investors amidst increasing regulatory risk in China’s tech-stocks. Bitcoin surges A resurgent Bitcoin has also garnered attention to kick-off the new trading week. The price of the crypto has surged by as much as 15% today, with commentators left scratching their heads as to what’s driven the move. Some reasons given have included reports Amazon is preparing to accept cryptocurrencies as payment, along with rumours famed investor Michael Burry has had liquidated a sizeable short position in Bitcoin.
