Honeywell InternationalHONBUYAug 27, 2026Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Sep 02, 2026. Market Open.
Decent value, trading ~26x forward PE with 22-23% expected earnings growth rate. Relative to other industrial names, stock's been somewhat flat over last 12 months. Price is above 200-day MA now, but it's really been up and down over last 6-8 months.
In the space, he prefers names with a bit more growth. Think of GEV, VRT, and CMI. Also see his Top Picks.
Infrastructure behind a lot of the real economy. Story right now is being driven by aerospace -- strong demand for air travel and ongoing maintenance. Spinoffs should make parent more focused and easier to value.
Not high growth, but a steady compounder. Value scores 9/10, fundamentals are 8/10. Room to run, good stock to hold.
GE provided the template to follow -- those spinoffs were very successful and drove a lot of shareholder value. The template's there, but execution matters. Defense and similar sectors have a lot of interest and spending right now. Good company, finally starting to reward shareholders. Good diversifier away from mega-caps.
Broke out of its bigger-term downtrend. Looks pretty positive here. The next short-term target (next couple of months) is going to be around the $240 level (a 10% upside from current levels).
Take a look at the 3-year chart. You can see the 2 peaks close to $240. If it can push above those, the next upside target is ~$260. Likes the setup, great entry point if an investor bought recently. Trend is upward, at least in the intermediate term.
It is a high quality diversified industrial conglomerate. Will spin out the aerospace division. Some of its businesses are short cycle and therefore more economically sensitive. The automation side looks interesting - wait for it to develop. The M&A strategy might be on hold. There is a stock split.
His firm is positive on industrials and aerospace. Reorganization. Recently broke out of base it's held since September 2021; recently pulled back to test. Probably a good entry point.
Aerospace/industrials have been weaker recently. 46% of its business is from aerospace. Lot of value to be unlocked. Likes it for the next 18 months.
