At the intersection of big data and "smarter" technology lies Splunk (NASDAQ:SPLK), the data-parsing software service that turns business information into actionable solutions. Making sense of the growing amount of data the digital world is generating is a top priority for many enterprises, helping with a diverse set of needs like streamlining operations and cybersecurity. Splunk recently wrapped up its 2019 fiscal year (which ended at the end of January 2019), demonstrating once again that investing in it is one of the best ways to cash in on the boom of digital data.
A year of rapid growthSplunk's double-digit growth last year was driven by businesses' continued interest in making use of the otherwise unusable and unwieldy data they generate, but Splunk did its fair share to make the most of the movement as well. Several acquisitions were made, most notably a couple of cybersecurity outfits to boost Splunk's presence in that fast-changing industry; new and updated product rollouts were also made for things like cloud computing and Internet of Things device tracking; and more than 2,000 apps from strategic partners were available on Splunkbase (an app store of sorts for companies) to extend the usefulness of the data analytics software for specific business needs.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By ]
However, Panasonic (OTCPK:PCRFY) announced this week that it was happy to consider further investment in the Nevada facility. A similar move in China is not unlikely. Tesla expects to triple its energy storage business this year but its problem has been getting supply to meet the demand. Panasonic's announcement is probably connected to a very substantial energy storage contract win just announced by the company.

CBAK is in a very competitive industry, as well as being small relative to its competitors. Among the Company's competitors are giants like Panasonic (OTCPK:PCRFY) and Samsung (OTC:SSNLF), but overall it faces competition from Japan, Korea, and China. Although CBAK states that "we are able to leverage our low-cost advantage to compete favorably with our competitors", it is hard to see that being the reality, especially when looking at the above gross margins. Still, the Company may enjoy lower labor costs, since it sources labor locally and apparently it has "higher consistency and safety in product quality, which enables us to compete favorably with local competitors". But given the greater resources of at least some of its competitors and the constantly evolving dynamics of the industry, competition is surely a risk factor to consider.
