Topics
Ricky Mulvey: 我讨论了美联储昨日决定维持利率不变,市场对此反应积极。鲍威尔主席的讲话暗示通货膨胀仍在下降,劳动力市场平衡,但经济前景更加不确定。 鲍威尔表示经济衰退的可能性极低,但投资者是否应该关注经济衰退的可能性?我认为长期投资者不应过度关注美联储的声明变化,而应寻找市场短视带来的投资机会。投资者应该关注市场的机会,而不是预测市场的走向。 我还讨论了Netflix斥资3.2亿美元制作的电影《电子国度》,以及Brad Jacobs的新公司QXO收购Beacon Roofing Supply。 Nick Sciple: 我分析了美联储维持利率不变的决定,指出虽然经济增长预期被下调,通胀预期上升,这可能预示着滞胀,但美联储仍然预计今年会降息两次,这给了市场一些喘息的机会。 我同意鲍威尔的观点,认为经济基本面并没有人们情绪变化那么大。长期投资者不应过度关注美联储的声明变化,而应寻找市场短视带来的投资机会。 关于Netflix的电影《电子国度》,我认为Netflix的策略与其他公司不同,他们专注于吸引观众观看并持续观看。Netflix的电影成本较高,因为他们采用的是预付所有费用的模式,而不是基于票房分成。Netflix不太可能改变其整体的电影制作模式。 关于QXO收购Beacon Roofing Supply,我认为Brad Jacobs擅长整合行业,他的新公司QXO收购Beacon Roofing Supply是其下一个大型整合的开始。Brad Jacobs在整合行业方面经验丰富,他的新公司QXO有潜力创造数十亿美元的价值。Beacon Roofing最终同意被收购,可能是因为市场不确定性增加,以及QXO的全现金报价。如果对QXO感兴趣,建议等待股价接近12.30美元左右再考虑买入。
