Vertiv Holdings (VRT)

It's gone up so much, 77% in the last 6 months, that it's resting now. It could go down even.

AI theme, playing off chips. Data centres and infrastructure. About 70% of business comes from data centres across the globe. As AI and supercomputing get built out, we'll see increased need for data centres and infrastructure. Now in the sweet spot -- always had a good business, but now has a good business that's in high demand. Profits and revenues should continue to expand. Stock price should too, even though it's had a nice move already. Yield is 0.1%.

He sold it before and on the quarter to turn a good profit. Then, NVDA reported their great quarter. So, he bought back Vertiv, because they sell the cooling racks for data centres (NVDA showed growth in this area).

The quarter was solid and ahead of expectations. However, the guidance was only near the mid point of estimates, and after the strong stock run, this 'wasn't enough' for short term investors. Sales guidance still calls for good growth, but EPS guidance of 32c to 36c was short of estimates (37c). But the 4Q showed EPS doubling on a 13% increase in revenue. We are certainly comfortable with that. Debt is declining and margins are robust. AI stocks are seeing selling today but overall things look good here longer term. We would be OK picking away on the buy side. It is not expensive and nothing has really changed. The sector is going to be highly volatile this week with multiple large companies reporting.

We do not think a long term investment decision should be dictated by a single quarter. We are comfortable with its outlook and would consider $60 an attractive price.

Great chairman. If it had been in the S&P, this would have been the best performer of that index. 

They make the best products under a good, new CEO and were able to raise prices.

They've missed several quarters. The new CEO is doing a better job, but he must raise prices to keep up with production costs.
