It is one of the US premier banking enterprises and the new leader is doing a great job cutting costs. The financial sector is still not at record high valuations, so there is still room to run. Higher interest rates are good for them. However, if short term rates become inverted then margins could get squeezed, since their funding is short term.

He thinks over the next two years there is likely a major break up coming of the company into separate entities, which should unlock overall value. If there is continuing growth in the global economy this will help as well.
He likes them because the valuation is very reasonable. It has a great global network, giving exposure to global economic growth. They may look to unlock value by slowly selling off assets that do not create shareholder value. He is in it for the long haul.
This drug distributor controls huge volumes of non-proprietary distribution networks. There is uncertainty in health care generally however. It is very inexpensive here. He would consider buying at these levels.
He is positive over the next 18 months, but you have to be confident in the energy sector. After years of disinvestment in the sector and as oil prices creep higher, he thinks this company will benefit.
He is positive on them with the rising interest rate scenario and thinks it is trading below book value. If you think the global economy is going to continue, this is well leveraged to that recovery.
It is a great company, but for him it is too expensive at 5.7 times sales. He prefers Chipotle (CHP-N) at 2.5 times sales.
