Here are the seven smartest ways to invest in Chinese markets, according to UBS. Stimulus should keep Chinese stocks from sinkingHowever, UBS believes that plenty of pain has already been priced into Chinese stocks. Naturally, China's property market turmoil has inspired comparisons to the US housing market bubble that led to the global financial crisis, but Yu is confident that such fears are overblown. "The government has the toolkit to minimize the risk of having something that is systematically disastrous in the financial markets," Yu said. If China's growth exceeds expectations, companies in the consumer discretionary and materials sectors will be among the biggest beneficiaries, according to UBS.

☆ UBS shares the only 4 media stocks worth buying now as the cable bundle collapses, the Disney-Charter conflict gets ugly, and streaming growth slows
▼ + stars: | 2023-09-06 | by ( James Faris | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +5 min

Media analysts say this dispute could be the beginning of the end for the cable bundle. After a decade of steady decline, the pay TV bundle now appears to be on life support. Charter refuses to pay Disney's higher asking price for its family of networks, including ESPN, without including Disney+ and Hulu in the bundle. The cable giant also wants its customers to have a Disney-free option for a reduced price, which may also be a non-starter. Otherwise, it plans to send its pay TV customers elsewhere.

When it comes to Hulu, value is in the eye of the holder. However, Comcast claims Hulu is worth double what Disney is saying, according to Bloomberg — even in a tough media environment. "It's what would a willing buyer in a robust auction pay," Roberts said of Hulu's valuation at a MoffettNathanson conference in May. Another way to value Hulu is by comparing its EV-to-subscriber ratio with that of Netflix. By buying all of Hulu, Disney can position itself for the next big trend in media, Noell said.

"We're one gust of wind away from recession," Kelly said. While he hasn't seen any cracks in that industry recently, he's wary of dismissing that as a risk, especially if interest rates climb further. The smartest investments to make now are in Europe, Japan, and emerging markets excluding China, Kelly said. But emerging markets are where many of the most tantalizing opportunities are, in Kelly's opinion. An exception within emerging markets is China.

☆ Rent growth nosedived again in August as tenants gain leverage over landlords — and apartments in these 42 cities are actually cheaper now than they were last year

Rent growth is rapidly decelerating across the US after taking off during the pandemic. Lower rent growth means that the cost of an apartment is still climbing, just at a slower pace. Renting may be expensive, but considering how many are feeling about the economy, it's easy to see why so many are sticking to apartments — especially as rent growth steadily slides. 42 cities that are getting more affordableBelow are 42 real estate markets where median rent for a one-bedroom apartment is lower than it was in 2022, according to Zumper. Along with each city are its year-over-year and month-over-month rent changes, average rent price, and national rent ranking among the largest 100 US cities.

Hopeful homebuyers can use price-to-rent ratios to see where the best deals are. Decade-high mortgage rates and a housing market shortage have made homebuying complicated for everyone, and impossible for many. That way, buyers can get an attractive deal and build equity instead of getting caught in a housing market bubble. Below are the 34 such markets, along with the price-to-rent ratio as of July 31, the average price-to-rent ratio since March 2015, and the current premium to that long-term average. Only one city — New Orleans, Louisiana — has a discounted price-to-rent ratio, meaning that the city is especially appealing for buyers right now.

Nvidia has captured the hearts of investors, but at least one market veteran refuses to show the artificial intelligence pioneer any love. "Nvidia is the stock market's new Tesla, where the market blindly assigns a ridiculously high and unrealistic valuation," Trainer wrote in an email to Insider on August 24. Trainer continued: "Investors should not be chasing Nvidia stock, as it is way too expensive. "While we recognize that artificial intelligence is an exciting technology and Nvidia is a great company, investors must pay attention to a company's valuation," Trainer wrote. To live up to its current valuation, Nvidia would have to increase revenue by 20% per year for the next 25 years, the investment research firm CEO wrote.

Oil prices came under pressure when government reserves were released, but Kupperman said that's not a viable long-term recipe for reasonable energy prices. He expects a massive spike in oil prices in either 2024 or 2025, which will greatly benefit companies tied to the commodity. The investing opportunity Kupperman said he's most excited about is uranium, which he's playing through the Sprott Physical Uranium Trust.

Still, while he keeps his focus on the long term, he acknowledged that valuations for AI stocks are ambitious, if not a bit crazy.
