COMMENT
Market Outlook A scary open today, but it has recovered somewhat. Be cautious about reading too much into this. He likes the short and sharp adjustment -- a supportive sign of a bull market. The yield curve is now inverted. Previous recessions have been predicated by this. It is the dog days of summer, so this may be magnifying the impact somewhat. You can still find invest-able spaces in the market. We are back near the top of the forward P/E ratio for the S&P500, but are now showing some pullback for the latest high. Just be careful and watch global manufacturing PMI index. The US is barely holding the 50 bullish level. Only India and Australia are higher. There is probably another 6-12 months left in this bull run, he predicts.
HOLD
He really likes MSFT-Q as it sits in the software space in tech. It has good cash flow, is defensible and immune to tariff wars. The darling in the space. Trading in mid-20 PE ratio, but along with a similar growth rate in revenues. He likes the cloud opportunities and subscription services. Just mind the cycle in the market right now. Have a stop to protect yourself.
HOLD
They spend a lot of money on the Star Wars theme park, which is taking time to catch on. Remember though, they are a monetizing machine. In the past they have heavily invested in themes, but have been able to grow into it. They are good at it. They have studio, tv, and products to sell. They are doing fine and the cash flow is great. Don't get hung up on one quarter. He didn't see anything in their recent earnings to be overly concerned over.
DON'T BUY
VZ vs T? He does not see telecom as being a great place right now. There is intense price competition. Wireless is a brutal space. He would suggest you look elsewhere.
DON'T BUY

AT&T(T)

Aug 07, 2019
VZ vs T? He does not see telecom as being a great place right now. There is intense price competition. Wireless is a brutal space. He would suggest you look elsewhere.
WATCH
A bit security and logistics. The stock has been very steady. The PEG ratio is about 1, so it is not overly compelling. A cup and handle formation that might be breaking out. They may have a share buyback in place. Not a sexy holding, but not a lot positive. He would watch.
HOLD
Some of what they do leads into medical devices, which he likes. They do pumps, high frequency components and other medical items. They recently beat earnings. The recent pullback is not too concerning. He is unsure if they are facing any tariff threats. He needs to do more homework on this.
DON'T BUY
He would stay away. They have had earnings misses and negative revisions. Not a good risk, especially this late in the cycle.
DON'T BUY
It has been making lower highs since 2018 and it has traded back down to significant lows. He thinks this is poised for another sizable push lower. The trade war between China and the US is crazy and is creating too much uncertainty to be investing here. Stay away.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 07/18, Up 1%) He was stopped out a while ago. Managed care got hit and became politicized. The sector went neutral, so he went into medical devices instead.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 07/18, Down 12%) A commodity down turn impacted this. Pipes and mid-stream assets in the Permian, where there is still some good tailwinds. He continues to own it. No fundamental reason to step away. Pays an 8% dividend.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 07/18, Up 16%) The 1.5% ten year yield has benefited this one. Rent levels can continue to grow. He continues to be focused here.
DON'T BUY
The refiner space is sooo volatile. Excess US supply of oil is a good thing. The real issue is demand. You need to see the share price clear out all the investors who timed their entry poorly. This could mean more downside to come -- don't catch the falling knife. Stay away for now.
WAIT
Immune from tariff war? They are known for their storage sector assets. The growth in data storage is enormous. The capacity requirements are growing and will continue to do so. He is unsure that China could still not be a threat to them. There may be other factors at play. Watch it and keep on your radar.
DON'T BUY
The pay a small dividend about 2-3%. The technicals suggest you stay away -- it is making lower highs consistently. Fundamentally, they are facing greater competition as is witnessed by the names on the trucks delivering groceries these days. Stay away.
