He bought more when it fell because it was massively discounted. Also, management gave very poor guidance about what was happening to a lot of their businesses. Feels their core businesses really has good opportunities on the FinTech side, in the US specifically, and the stock can slowly go up. Pays a decent yield.
He bought more when it fell after earnings came out last quarter. Hopefully this quarter they get some of the business from the RFPs they put out previously. Over the next couple of quarters you will see some changes in the company. The dividend is reasonable and he was glad they cut it. There is opportunity for the stock to go up from here.
In December, he upgraded this to a sector outperform again. Private equity was approaching them to possibly pick apart part of the business. A very cheap FinTech play. He can understand why the stock cratered. Their US lending business will pick up, and he doesn’t think the Canadian business is declining as fast as we saw last quarter.
Technically, there are 2 things going on. This has a big, long uptrend that is still well intact. But there was also a shorter uptrend that has definitely been broken. Next level of support would be around $26-$27 and it looks like it may be trying to bounce off that right now. If you own, he would want to see this hold. There is some danger that because the short-term trend was broken, you might not see it hold. Consider putting a stop loss on it.
