$SIE if you want to own this German conglomerate (largest industrial company in Europe) you need to buy it on the Frankfurt exchange. No ADRs/pinks, for American investors. 🇩🇪👷♂️💪

last $SIE ER call. This is a BIG DEAL for industrials btw. Pay attn: “one major topic in the industry overall, are the increasing raw material prices, “Looking at GP, we are to the extent possible covered by price escalation formula on our contracts and hedging activities.
The flip side of the above is to watch for see bear reversals or slope flattening of various commodity charts and think of the *BULLISH* implication of this.
The classic one is if oil dumps and gasoline remains bid, who benefits ? Refiners.
Last year i focused less on shorting bonds and more on buying banks. Why? That’s how I like to approach things. What’s the bullish way to play a specific bear (bond bear in last year case )
Recently we had iron ore pullback. Who benefits ? First derivative is steel makers.
You also wanna remember pain factors from certain earning calls for down the road when these flip
Example. Pre Covid Zion got destroyed when bonds went parabolic. Not as hedged etc. well who do you think I bot when we top ticked bonds in 2020?
Caterpillar has felt the squeeze from rising steel prices. Stuff like this.
Home builders and lumber is the obvious one
I don’t like to short these margin squeezes for good companies if they’re in secular industry bull. For example
I wouldn’t short a co that does clean tech/industrial even if they’re getting squeezed on materials.
$SIE ER “if these material cost increases remain end-market prices for our goods must also increase accordingly and this is what we are working on also with our customers.” #inflation
#inflation has l multiplicative effect as it moves up the value chain. Eg iron ore miner ➡️ steel maker hikes prices ➡️ industrial machinery maker hikes prices ➡️ engineering /contractor hikes ➡️ etc
$SIE back in Feb 2021: Siemens Energy, which supplies turbines to the power sector, said that it will cut 7,800 jobs, or 8.5% of its workforce, by 2025 👉to raise margins and competitiveness.👈 // this ! This is why inflation is bad.
$SIE ER call. This is worth noting. Natty isn’t going anywhere. “The renewables play important role but gas power plants will be key for the stability and reliability of electricity supply and will remain an important contributor to electricity generation over the coming years.”
$SIE strong euro is no bueno for these EU industrials. Revenue rose by 9% on a reported basis. 👉excluding the headwinds from currency and portfolio effects, total revenue rose by 11%👈
$SIE Gas and Power segment: “across all KPIs in our Gas and Power segment, truly a solid result. Order showed an improvement rising 11% on a comparable basis year-over-year.”
$SIE gas turbine market share regained. To over 20%

I’d love to see this chart with wage adjusted numbers. Losing hood paying middle class jobs, permanently , and replacing w housekeeping and restaurant jobs is not progress for 🇺🇸 but is a continued consolidation in favor of the oligarchs
2020 article but valid points: Many companies say they have 'operating leverage' — code for firing people cnbc.com/2020/07/29/lot…
“One reason the stock market is holding up well is because investors believe many corporations are going to fire a lot of people and replace them with technology that will make the companies more efficient and improve profits.”
“There's a fancy accounting term for this. It's called "operating leverage."
•For analysts and strategist, the term is like magic pixie dust, driving stocks higher.”
Operating leverage is a cost-accounting formula that measures the degree to which a firm or project can increase operating income by increasing revenue. A business that generates sales with a high gross margin and low variable costs has high operating leverage.
Low-operating-leverage companies may have high costs that vary directly with their sales but have lower fixed costs to cover each month.
The higher the degree of operating leverage, the greater the potential danger from forecasting risk, in which a relatively small error in forecasting sales can be magnified into large errors in cash flow projections.
