This summary was created by AI, based on 68 opinions in the last 12 months.

Visa Inc. continues to be viewed as a strong investment in the financial sector, with experts highlighting its dominance in the global payments market and the shift towards digital transactions. The company is noted for its impressive return on equity and consistent revenue growth, driven by both consumer spending and the expansion of value-added services such as fraud prevention and cybersecurity. However, concerns over potential disruptions from fintech innovations and macroeconomic factors have been pointed out, indicating some vulnerability in the current market. Nevertheless, analysts see Visa as a solid long-term hold due to its resilient business model and ability to adapt to changing consumer behaviors, supported by a strong cash flow and ongoing share repurchase strategies.

Mastercard, MA
SELL ON STRENGTH
He owns Mastercard Inc. (MA-N). Looks pretty much the same. They are forgiving the short term down movement. Look for a selling point.
BUY
Visa and Mastercard dominate payment systems worldwide. Visa is stronger and has a slightly better growth profile. Both companies are wonderful and well-entranched. They both have a wide, deep moat. Also, Asia will increase credit card use.
BUY
He owns Mastercard. The credit card industry is fabulous. 85% of the world's credit card market is dominated by Visa and Mastercard. They have a strong moat. They make money when people have money or not.
PARTIAL BUY
Companies with high valuations will compress if the market goes down. Revenue growth is 12%, so hitting on all cylinders. Payments, volume growth are at 11% last quarter. Growing at a fast pace. That's wonderful, but you get so big it's harder to grow at such a fast pace. Has no problem with the stock, you can buy a half position.
STRONG BUY
A winner. A safe investment. Card companies do well when consumers are and now in the U.S. consumers are really using their cards now. It has sold off, but Visa will come back. It's a good business to be in.
TOP PICK
Leading global payment platform. As more and more people buy online they benefit. Under penetrated in Europe. They bought Visa Europe a couple of years ago that was run before as a not for profit. Good secular growth in the space. She thinks that they can grow their earnings at a 15% - 20% rate. Valuation very attractive. (Analysts’ price target is $161.35)
BUY
One of the best companies in the world. Great earnings growth, terrific balance sheet. Not cheap, but right now it's on sale. Rare to get a great company on sale.
BUY
Visa vs Mastercard? He has held both for many years. At current values, Visa is a great value trading at 20 times earnings -- as cheap as he has seen in a while. He is surprised Visa is trading at a discount to Mastercard -- not typically the case. Long term growth of e-trade is expanding worldwide and there is a long runway for both. He would buy it here. (Analysts’ price target is $162.00)
DON'T BUY
Was one of the great performers in the rising markets but has been coming off. If consumer spending shows signs of slowing, then it comes right off due to a high multiple. He would not rush to buy but it is a tremendous franchise to own.
TOP PICK
A long term hold for his portfolio. It processed 1.9 TRILLION transactions last year -- more than Mastercard, Discovery and Amex combined. Not an inexpensive stock, but it does have high predictability of earnings. There is an opportunity in Europe and into debit-tap markets. Yield 0.7%. (Analysts’ price target is $162.59)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 31/18, Down 2%) Second largest holding, and largest in the fintech space. You have to own it.
BUY
Great long term name to own. Global spending continues to grow because global growth continues. It is on sale.
HOLD
Valuation was excessive, but has come back. A great global platform and has taken market share from American Express. Visa has positioned them well to compete with the PayPals of the world. We're moving towards e-payments as a general trend.
BUY
We're now beyond seasonality (Aug.2-Nov.11), but Visa has done really well. Payment companies won't go out of style. It's enjoyed higher-highs and -lows. Visa will benefit from holiday shopping. A good time now.
TOP PICK
A lot of growth here. They've adapted very well to technology payments, like tapping credits cards. It's safe hiding here during the current correction. They're also involved in B2B connect (blockchain). A trusted, go-to name in the payments space. (Analysts’ price target is $163.28)
