BUY
Visa vs. Mastercard He's owned both. Look at how much each card is international and domestic? Visa is a little more international, a market that's a bigger piece of the pie. The average European uses cash much more often than plastic, so this is a big opportunity for Visa. Also, Visa is 60% debit, which he thinks will become more normal than credit cards, so this is another growth area. This sector is doing well. Visa is bigger than all its peers combined. Did 1.9 trillion transactions last year--huge. So, he prefers Visa, but the overall sentiment is positive for Mastercard too.
BUY ON WEAKNESS

The payments space is huge, because nobody's writing cheques and people are using smartphones. Has 12% revenue growth. Number of cards increase 80 million to 3.3 billion. Total Visa volume surpassed a record $11 trillion. Likes the company, but hates the price. Multiple is too high. A free cash-flow company that continues to grow. He'd buy this at a lower price. 31.25 P/E is unjustifiable.

WAIT
We had consolidation in 2015/16 time-frame and then the up leg. Now we are seeing a cycle reset again. He would like to see a covered call strategy used. There will be further choppiness ahead.
BUY
It is doing a healthy pullback. Good looking chart. Good story.
TOP PICK
He has a 12 month price target of $164. It is not a value orientated company, but has high profit margins and plenty of free cash flow. It has delivered capital appreciation and dividend growth. In this pull back it is a good buy. Yield 0.7%. (Analysts’ price target is $163.06)
TOP PICK
Everybody uses credit cards or phones and nobody pays cash. This is an incredible business. Terrific earnings, raising their dividend 17%. He believes more people will use Visa and that global growth will continue. (Analysts’ price target is $163.06)
COMMENT

How to play Mastercard and Visa in ETFs? They're heavyweights in the tech ETFs; XLK-Q (Visa is large in this) if you want liquidity. Also look at IGM-N.

BUY

It is up today on their earnings. We are actually at support. If it corrects more it will go to $125. This is a good time for this stock.

BUY

He is looking to pick some up. It has come back to support. The trend is higher.

DON'T BUY

He thinks the valuation is in excess of its intrinsic value. He would look at it at $108 and even then feels it might be a gamble. If interest rates are looking to rise, this could create headwinds. He sees $140 as being critical support.

PARTIAL BUY

A big fintech company that’s continuing to expand. 30x forward earnings is a little expensive, he’d be more comfortable at 20-25x. Half positions only. Remember that they’ll be in all the ETFs.

BUY

He wished he had bought it. A global name and they're moving into countries where people use less cash. A great story. It's never been cheap. 30x forward earnings even during the current pullback. Buy it. The one risk is there are many players moving into fintech. Visa should still benefit from that and continue to do well.

HOLD

He hasn’t evaluated the fundamentals lately, but he sees them continue to meet earning calls. It looks okay right now and likes the sharp corrective move lately as it feels more bullish. It has a loft valuation, but would continue to give it rope.

BUY

She likes this space--it's a play on e-commerce and in countries where cash and cheque dominate payments. Credit cards will continue to grow. Nothing wrong with buying in this pullback. They were getting pricey vs. a few weeks ago. She prefers Visa to MasterCard, because they brought in Visa Europe last year which will raise their international presence and introduce new products and grow the company.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 20/17, Up 52%) They have one of the most significant payment networks in the world. More and more people are moving to financial platforms. 60% of revenues come from personal expenditures. There is still a lot of runway.
