Sharing articles from newly emerging outstanding contributors in 2020:
Square has built a complete and parallel ecosystem for sellers and individuals, aiming to inject momentum into economic development and bring merchants closer to consumers.
From a first-quarter perspective, Xiaomi’s performance across its three core businesses—smartphones, AIoT, and internet services—has exceeded market expectations both in terms of growth rate and product line. The emergence of more best-selling products points to future growth potential. However, management's disclosure hints at domestic smartphone business stagnation, pandemic impacts, insufficient foreign exchange risk management, and underreported bad debt risks.
In recent years, China Mobile has been strategically expanding—from core networks to upper-level services, from IoT connectivity to core platforms, and from telecom services to lifestyle and culture. It seems China Mobile is ready, steadily penetrating markets by diversifying its approaches to capture traffic entry points, preparing to ignite everything with 5G. Whether it will succeed remains unclear, but at least in preparation, China Mobile appears more advanced than other operators. Thus, China Mobile is not only far from aging but also poised to take on larger opportunities.
In Q3 of 2020, Meituan increased its spending on delivery riders (mainly seasonal and temporary subsidies), leading to a decline in the gross margin of its food delivery business. However, the operating profit margin improved significantly from 2.1% in the same period last year to 3.7%. This shows that increasing expenditures on delivery riders under the premise of boosting marketing-related revenue does not negatively impact the overall profit margin. Marketing-related income can be considered as Meituan's potential revenue going forward.”
Between Alibaba, JD.com, and PDD Holdings, if I had to choose one, I would go with Alibaba because its diversified business model ensures safer and more stable growth. PDD Holdings has the fastest business growth, but its share price dropped due to higher-than-expected losses. I think this is just an excuse for a pullback, considering its stock price has already surged 1.2 times this year. JD.com, on the other hand, offers both growth and defensive qualities.
Plant-based meat manufacturer$Beyond Meat (BYND.US)$is the rising star of plant-based meat products, with two clear competitive advantages: product innovation and channel expansion capabilities. These are key factors in the industry’s competitiveness, and it can be predicted that the company will maintain relatively high growth in the coming years.
