DON'T BUY
WiFi free globally is quite a concept. This would be a problem for the telecom sector, but it is a ways out. They decided they wanted to become a conglomerate in media. Their results have been mediocre. Their businesses don't work well together. 5G is not the hot seller they anticipated. There is no killer app that works only on 5G only.
BUY
An amazing company over the years. The stock has come off and the valuation is the lowest it has been in 6 years. The pandemic has hurt their sales and earnings. Give it a couple of quarters and the numbers will start to look better. It is the most attractive it has been for a number of years.
HOLD
It is such a large, diversified business that where they have difficulties, the rest of the business offsets it. 8.5% dividend and they will generate a 5% free cash flow yield in a couple of years. Line 5 is just under 5% of their 2022 earnings.
TOP PICK
If you could buy only one gold stock, make it this one. This is the sweet spot because it is mid-tier. It is not too big to grow, nor risky because of being too small. You don’t want the highest cost producer because it will have mines it probably should not have, nor the lowest cost because they don’t have room for improvement in cost structure. You want to own a company with multiple assets and in jurisdictions that are politically stable. You want them to have growth. You want to see high insider ownership and proven leadership. This is EQX-T. (Analysts’ price target is $23.25)
TOP PICK

They just announced joint acquisition of Clearwater SeaFoods. It brings harvesting into the organization. 90% of Clearwater's product is sold internationally while PBH-T sells only within Canada and the US. It turns them into a global player. (Analysts’ price target is $109.75)

TOP PICK
Natural gas prices are stronger and drilling activity is picking up now. It is at the same price as 6 months ago.
COMMENT

Billy Kawasaki’s Insights - Billy’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. The vaccine shouldn’t dramatically change things. Cash rich companies that are expected to grow at 40%+ would still get a premium over value companies. Companies that had good growth rates pre-covid should maintain good growth rates post-covid.

BUY
The parent company of Olive Garden and other restaurants. Restos in general have been ground zero for Covid. DRI has thrived because they've put tables outside and invested heavily in safety. They've cut their dividend. They've returned to this year's high. DRI limited dine-in service to 50% (dine-in still happens in the U.S. despite the pandemic). A year from now, this stock will hit the moon.
COMMENT
It just hit new 2020 highs. An amazing feat during Covid. HON is up 66% in the last 6 months. The key here was to hold onto this stock during the pandemic, speaking to the discipline of holding.
HOLD
Disney is up 33% in the last 6 months and near 2020 highs. They did this, despite closures of their cruiselines and limitation to their theme parks. This speaks to the investor discipline of holding a stock during tough times.
DON'T BUY
A telehealth that IPOd earlier this year. That had a recent bad quarter with disappointing earnings. They're in the penalty box and he doesn't want to be there.
COMMENT
This cosmetics company got hammered. ELF suffered issues in their distribution channel. He's confident this will come back. The CEO is solid and he likes their products.
