PARTIAL BUY
Great stock, but not the best time to buy. Makes sense to take a half position right now. Barron's says that MVP (Mastercard, Visa, and PayPal) have done better than the FANGs over the last 3 years. Visa is the best bet. Asset light. Free cash flow is quite high and gives you flexibility.

BUY
Owns it and thinks it's a great company. Very good organic growth, has lots more growth to happen globally. Bought out VISA Europe in 2017 thinks it's going to be fully integrated later part of this year and will add a lot to VISA. Has little or no debt. Tons of free cash flow. You can own it here, or if you get a chance wait when it falls to buy it.

BUY
Lots of room for secular growth in e-payments. Globally, many payments are still in cash and cheque, so more people will move to debit and credit. As e-commerce starts to grow, Visa will benefit. A fine long-term hold. Visa bought Visa Europe a few years ago to expand their geographic reach.

HOLD
The financial space is a great area -- he prefers the IPAY-N ETF instead. Visa has spent a lot on cyber-security, giving it an advantage. Cash still represents 32% of transactions, 50% in the OECD countries, so there is still more runway to go. Volumes continue to grow. Value may be a little rich here, based on the PE ratio, but considering its growth it is still decent value.

BUY
Likes it very much. Stable. It's the biggest credit card company in the world. They have increasing international presence, growing after buying Visa Europe. 60% of its business is now in debit. New technology like the Square app reflects a changing payments landscape, but Visa is doing deals with smaller groups and keeping up.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
In their fund 50% is made of 5 ETFs and 50% in 18 single stocks. VISA is one of them. Fairly well priced at a PEG ratio of 1.71. They have a target of $165. He would enter with a half position and the other half if there is a pullback.

DON'T BUY
The payment industry in the US has been a strong performer for some time. The issue is the multiple, being way too high. You have to be strategic about buying it when it is low. The credit card companies are well positioned to grow. He is worried about APPL-Q and their card disrupting the market. He would prefer AMEX, which he does not own at this point.

It is hard to distinguish between itself and MA-N. It is one of the two largest in the world with great tailwinds. The US is still moving to payment cards.
