WATCH

Has long, long owned this. Is fairly valued now. It faces some margin challenge though it has 45% exposure to data centres and defence, But the valuation is running up. Price target is $170, but he needs to see revenue growth accelerate.

TOP PICK

In tech sector. Sounds high tech, but it's so boring. They make cables, things that go "beep", translating real-world situations like an engine overheating to a usable signal. From aerospace to even organizers. Rollup strategy of about 140 little businesses in growing areas. Yield is 0.78%.

(Analysts’ price target is $170.50)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 06/25, Up 25%)

Very good fundamentals. Has owned this 10 years. Great since August. A hold for the long term. His return is 41%, though the valuation is now high.

HOLD

The PE is in the high-30s. Don't chase it. If you own, hold it.

TOP PICK
PE is 27x.

Electronic equipment and sensors. Aerospace, data centres. Valuation isn't perfect, and it's certainly run up quite a bit. This company has beat the "fade" (when revenue and ROC drop off) for a very long time and doesn't see that changing. He's willing to pay up for a company of this quality. Yield is 0.61%.

(Analysts’ price target is $113.50)
BUY ON WEAKNESS

The AI play no one talks about it, because they think it's a boring industrial. But you can't build data centres without connectors, and APH is the top connector. Q1 earnings were +48% YOY. This has run up, so buy at high-$80s. If trading, sell at $81.50, or $71-72 if you're a long-term trading. APH affirmed guidance. Demand will likely remain strong.

BUY

He's owned this since inception. It benefits from AI tailwinds, and boasts 2% revenue growth.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
Financial metrics are very strong (return on equity, cash flow) Not educated on what company does, but likes financial picture. Not cheap enough valuation to justify investment. Buy on weakness (~20 P/E ratio).
