American Express (AXP) continues to demonstrate robust performance and a solid financial track record, despite a slight moderation in revenue growth. Analysts have noted a significant uptick in social media mentions, reflective of increasing consumer engagement, particularly among Millennials and GenZ. While some experts highlight concerns regarding credit risks and elevated marketing expenses, the company's focus on premium customers and strategic expansion into younger demographics is viewed positively. Recent earnings reports show mixed results with minor misses against expectations; however, adjusted earnings growth remains strong. Most agree that current market conditions present a potential buying opportunity, especially as the company has shown resilience through economic fluctuations.
Positioned higher on the socio-economic side than Visa or MA, so it doesn't have a lot of credit problems. Absolutely spectacular track record. Extremely profitable right through the entire financial crisis. Earnings growth at the 15% annualized level, trades at only 18x. Excess cash generation. Repurchased ~40% of stock in last 20 years. Yield is 1.17%, keeps jacking it up.
Also a core holding of his good friend Warren Buffett ;)
It reports Friday. Every time it reports, the stock takes a hit that day, but AXP has had a juggernaut run in recent years.
A bit more credit risk than other names. All the credit card companies are good, but he prefers and owns Visa.
She just trimmed AmEx as part of typical prudent portfolio management. She bought this in 2019 at 14x PE and is now at 19x PE with 13% earnings growth for the next two years. If the market hits volatility, she's perfectly fine taking a little money off the table.
Does not own shares, but does own Mastercard. Overall, a strong sector with move towards cashless society. Well positioned for the future. Would recommend holding.
Wall Street got their quarter wrong again. It hit $286, a new high, last Thursday, but tumbled 2.19% today. Revenues were in-line at 6% in their total spending in their cards, and expenses were 9% YOY, but below estimates, and they beat EPS, but they slightly trimmed their full-year revenue growth forecast, but Millennials/GenZ spending is up 12% YOY, the Boomers are flat while GenX is 4%. Delinquencies look good, not that bad. Wall Street didn't like their gradual slowdown in revenue growth.
Reported today but shares are down. They are being conservative. The US consumer was +12%, card fees 18%, NII 15%--all good numbers. Also, shares are up so much this year. A good story.
They have lots of runway: they issued 3.3 million new cards were issued last quarter with 80% to Millennials and GenZ. Don't trade, but invest in this.
Just reported a very small topline miss, but beat on the bottom. Share are up nearly 50% this year. They focus on Millennials and GenZ, nicely. They will continue to grow.
They report Friday. The last two times, he advised buying if shares fell, and he was right. One of his favourite companies.
How many times has AmEx been downgraded only to bounce back? And you're downgrading before a rate-cutting cycle?
Good to hear management's recent comments about slower, but stable growth, given worries that travel and discretionary spending is slowing. AXP is expanding its base, which has been loyal, to a younger demographic.
Spending remains robust. Revenue will grow 9-11% based on the strong, upper-end consumer.
It was done very well for him, but revenue growth is slightly moderating, only 10% in the last quarter. He's concerned, but can't and won't sell.
