COMMENT
An IPO that hasn't been out too long so he can't chart it easily but it does have a symmetrical triangle. This one seems to be trying to come out the bottom. Look at MasterCard (MA-N) and see how it is doing. If it violates the trend line he would exit this one. They will both do the same thing.
BUY
Strong name in the financial services sector. Trying to mimic American Express by promoting a lot of new cards with prizes. This is cutting into margins. For a long-term play, it is a decent stock to own.
DON'T BUY
Not bullish on this company. His concern is the ability of the banks to take on more credit cards. Visa doesn’t have the credit risks, but as cards get maxed out and go into default there will be fewer transactions.
DON'T BUY
Seems to have gotten ahead of itself. Would like to have this one season at little bit longer after its IPO.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Can enter stock and add to it if weakness, preferred over Mastercard.
DON'T BUY
Little concerned because of consumers being overextended. Credit card debts are getting very high at the moment. If interest rates back up a little bit, this could be under threat.
DON'T BUY
The ability to grow its cardholder base and to grow the number of retail transactions in the current economic environment is restrained.
DON'T BUY
Likes the concept, but there will be a better opportunity. Big advantage is that they benefit from the transactions but don’t take any risks. A little expensive. Would consider in the $55 range.
DON'T BUY
Was a relatively hot IPO. Trading at a pretty full multiple. People are hoping there is going to be significant international growth. Discover (DFS-N) and American Express (AXP-N) are both cheaper and he would rather own American Express.
DON'T BUY
A processing company that gets paid on the volume of transactions. There are no credit risks. A little bit too expensive and a little bit too hot off the IPO.
DON'T BUY
Stock roared out of the gate and people who were lucky enough to get it on the IPO made a lot of money. Feels it is a little too hot right now. He is concerned about 2 things in the business. 1) The increasing rate of credit card defaults and 2) as interest rates go up, their margins will get squeezed.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
2 marquee stocks that he is watching right now are Visa (V-N) and MasterCard (MA-N). They have no credit risk. They are transactional-based businesses. The multiples in terms of earnings are a bit rich. Wait for a pullback. If you want global growth, MasterCard would be the better.
BUY
They don't have the problem of a possible default risk as they are just processing transactions. Mutual funds will be accumulating this stock.
BUY
Thinks the stock goes higher in the intermediate term. The Visa issue was very popular because 1) there was very little credit risk involved and 2) it is a play on global transactions that are growing very rapidly. Not inexpensive, but feels it's a long-term growth story.
DON'T BUY
This was a hot IPO not too long ago. It did well because it is a great brand name. Also, the history of MasterCard’s IPO was fabulous. Probably overvalued. Entirely tied into consumer spending.
