TOP PICK

She bought in summer, stock's not done too much, so it gets to be a Top Pick again. Vast array of picks and shovels to the healthcare industry. Reduced guidance a couple of times, very unusual for them: weakness in China, general caution in spending, and Covid-double-ordered inventory destocking. Likes long-term fundamentals of healthcare industry, and TMO will participate. Yield is 0.3%.

TMO vs. DHR

TMO is a leader in life sciences and diagnostics. He recently added. The entire sector has some over-supply. This is the bottom of the cycle. Lower risk, less upside, more diversified. Historically, good at acquisitions. Good long-term hold, but right now it's all about waiting for funding to come back to the sector.

When the cycle turns, both will do well and will probably outperform.

TOP PICK

It is the leading global player in life sciences and tools. It provides drug companies, pharmaceuticals and labs and in fact is vital to the pharmaceutical industry in helping with drug development. The overhang is weakness in China and bio-tech companies but this should be a temporary headwind. With a good management team it is growing in the U.S. with several acquisitions. The pull back makes it a good time to buy for the long term.       Buy 21  Hold 6  Sell 1

TOP PICK

Recently bought this. TMO benefitted during Covid because companies used their products and services. Shares are off 22% from highs. Grows organically and from M&A. They generate cash flow and earnings, which will be down this year. But they invest in companies and R&D well. Pays a small dividend though.

PARTIAL BUY

October-November marked a major low. Range-bound between $600-520. As long as it doesn't take out the $520 level to the downside, doesn't mind nibbling here for the longer term. He expects we're starting a new 4-year cycle for a 3-5 year bull market. See his Top Picks.

COMMENT

It has differing moving parts and has a growth component - lab samples go to their products associated with lab work. Personalized medicine is a major growth area and means more specific types of testing. This will benefit TMO

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Great company over the long term.
Weak share price a good time to invest.
Grow company that has volatility.
M&A strategy will be good if assets remain cheap.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

A great company, a mid-tech conglomerate that aggressively buys companies and boasts recurring revenues. We're approaching a recession, but buy for the long-term and buy in tranches.
