This summary was created by AI, based on 25 opinions in the last 12 months.

Honeywell International (HON) has garnered a mixed set of opinions from various experts. While there are indications of a positive trajectory for HON, particularly with its upcoming spinoff that aims to streamline operations and potentially unlock shareholder value, concerns regarding its relatively low growth rate compared to its industrial peers persist. Some analysts suggest alternatives like Caterpillar (CAT), which has a higher growth rate and is more suited to the current trends in AI and aerospace. The spinoff may present new opportunities and potentially elevate shares, but past examples like the GE breakup highlight that execution is crucial for success. Overall, while there are strong fundamentals in aerospace and automation, the path forward appears cautious, with some experts advising to hold rather than aggressively pursue buying opportunities.

BUY
They have a new services division and their intelligent warehouse is amazing. The pandemic has delayed their aerospace business, but he expects good things. They report Friday. Good CEO.
COMMENT
It just hit new 2020 highs. An amazing feat during Covid. HON is up 66% in the last 6 months. The key here was to hold onto this stock during the pandemic, speaking to the discipline of holding.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
As an industrial, it has aerospace exposure. They just beat earnings, but suspended their full year guidance. They are not cheap -- trading at 22 times earnings and growth of 10% for earnings. He would wait for lower prices to buy. A fine company in the long term.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 27/19, Down 29%) He sold Oct 11/19. He would not be buying anything in the industrial space because as a hole they are in difficulty. Capital spending will be tricky going forward. The only industrial space he would look at going forward is automation and although they have a bit of this, you have to see the market believing we are getting to the other side of this.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 27/19, Up 5%) He got stopped out in late-fall 2019 when it pulled back. Industrials will do well this year, though.
TOP PICK
They are virtually in every different manufacturing platform when it comes to defense contractors. The Chinese are connecting all planes to the web via satellite and Honeywell has the technology to do this. (Analysts’ price target is $180.09)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 07/18, Up 10%) He sold out around $166 in September last year. Still a good company, just better opportunities out there now.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 07/18, Up 14%) He sold in September. They spun off some businesses. He saw a valuation exhaustion. Spinning the companies off created noise. It is a great company but it was due to go sideways for a while.
DON'T BUY
Likes it long-term, but it's been flat the past year, sideways. It's also cyclical which he's getting out of that and embracing defensive names instead. Honeywell isn't this.
HOLD
He likes the management team and their branding. The stock is still too expensive. He would continue to hold it if you already own it. (Analysts’ price target is $165.00)
DON'T BUY
Well-run, especially compared to peers like GE. Pays a 2.2% dividend yield. But industrials underperform in the late economic cycle (now).
HOLD

If an investor is not an owner today, wait until the announced reorganizations have been completed and then pick and choose the divisions that are suitable. He looks favorably on the coming aerospace division and the new Internet of Things division.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

He likes this company. They raised their guidance. It is a little pricey. Over time has lots of legs.
(Analysts’ price target is $174.00)

WAIT

From October to May, the industrial sector does well. Seasonally, this isn't Honeywell's time. It may pull back down to $140, maybe wait till October.

PAST TOP PICK

(Past Top Pick, August 17, 2017, Up 11%) A great industrial in aerospace and the home, but they're changing under a new CEO. Expect them to become an internet of things business.
