Dow Inc. (DOW-N) is experiencing significant growth, driven by factors such as its reliance on domestic oil supply amidst geopolitical tensions in the Gulf region due to the US-Iran war, allowing it to avoid disruptions associated with the Strait of Hormuz. In the first quarter, the stock surged by 78%, placing it among the top performers in the S&P 500, fueled by market anticipation of interest rate cuts and consequent petrochemical shortages attributed to Iranian policies. While its recent 43% increase over three months is promising, expert opinions indicate caution, suggesting that profit-taking may be prudent as the landscape remains dependent on recovering demand from Chinese buyers. The competitive landscape, particularly with rivals like LYB, could pose risks of market pullbacks as uncertainty looms in the near term.

WATCH

Pullout by Kuwait on the expected takeover of Rohm & Haas Co. Some clarity is needed as to whether they pay the full $78 financing, selling some assets there will be some volatility in the short-term. Longer-term an excellent company. 10.6% dividend.

BUY

Always been a very well run company. Complicated company to try to figure out because of a lot of moving parts including being a very large petrochemical user. Good dividend yield and trading at pretty reasonable earnings.

COMMENT

Chemical stocks in general are acting extremely well. They are late cycle players. If you are a short-term investor, you might get a bump on this one.

BUY

The rise in cost of feedstock has left the stock moving sideways the last 4 months. 3.7% dividend should be safe. The biggest impetus for them is to be able to pass costs onto their customers. Good-quality stock, but don't expect a lot of growth.

COMMENT

One of the few industries that have reasonable pricing ability with their clients. Reasonably good cash flow. Not highly leveraged. Cyclical.

COMMENT

Chemical companies won through some tough times and DOW did a good job of restructuring.

HOLD

Cyclical, so not a long-term investment. The chemical cycle is doing better now. Energy prices have come down significantly and this is their raw material. The price for their product has not come down and margins have expanded.

DON'T BUY

An economically sensitive stock as its commodity chemicals. Down 6% over the last year.

DON'T BUY

There has been a move away from economically sensitive stocks. Price performance is not as strong or participating in the rally as others.

WATCH

The model price is $40.86. A positive 18% differential. It's on his radar. $29.77 would be an absolute steal.

BUY

Demand they expected is low and the cost structure is going up because of higher oil/gas prices. At these levels, 8 X earnings, you should buy a company like this, because over the long-term, it's at good company.

SELL

The chemical sector overall has been having a fairly difficult time. This one is a large company and is heavily owned by index funds and index investors and in the last three years there has been a continual unweighting in favour of midsize companies that are growing faster.

BUY

The stock looks like it has bottomed. Weaker natural gas over the last little while has helped on their input costs. They increased their dividend. A powerful cash generator. A bit of a defensive stock.

HOLD

The biggest problem for most of the chemical companies is the cost of their feedstock. Now that natural gas prices have started to come down, there are opportunities for a little bit more leveling off of the company. The dividend is attractive. The problem he sees is that in the long run they haven't been able to generate enough free cash flow to cover their capital expenditures.

DON'T BUY

Have had a wonderful year, but people thinks this is as good as it gets.
