Stock Opinions by Greg Newman

COMMENT

Quality of stock market rally in question as small number (~7 companies) responsible for gains. Very narrow band of performance for big tech names. Geopolitical risk along inflation could but gains at risk. US Fed rate hikes are still a possibility. Seeing value in a lot of names that have not caught upwards draft in rally. However, is expecting more growth from "Mag 7" stocks. Might be risky to wait for weakness - not a good idea to be "anti-tech".

Very high quality company. Excellent management team. Expecting return of capital to shareholders. Very good balance sheet, with strong asset base. Expecting cash flow per share to rise.

Reasonable dividend. Good company with quality prospects. Q1 a slight miss, but the business is very sound. Would recommend buying weakness. Excellent value at current share price.

HOLD
NVIDIA Corporation

Cyclical company that will fall eventually. Would recommend a small position at current price levels. Company is underpinned by solid earnings. Trading at ~42x earnings, which is high, but expecting stock price to continue to rise.

HOLD

Increased 2024 guidance. 98% recurring revenue which is very attractive. Not a cheap valuation, would recommend holding, or buying on weakness. A good "small position" in portfolio.

Very good dividend that is safe. Production and earnings continue to beat expectation. Capex unchanged (good for business). Company valuation very fair (in line with peers). Strong management team with quality assets. Expecting further stock buybacks and maybe a dividend raise.

BUY
Visa Inc.

Excellent company with very strong brand. Sales up 10% YoY. 2024 guidance remains the same. Q1 guidance was recently beat. Excellent technology with sticky user base. Consumers appear to be strong. P/E not cheap, but earnings continue to grow.
