BUY
A long-term winner. Drives revenue growth year after year. Expects double digit growth going forward. One of his favourites, and he would be comfortable owning it.
WATCH
One of the misunderstood benefits could be its online e-commerce offering, and selling online ads to the Walmart site. As a way to leverage e-commerce, this is one of the unknowns for the next 5-10 years. It's on his radar. Trades above the market multiple. Has done well through the pandemic.
WATCH
He's looking at it. Very well positioned in the payment space. Trading at almost 40x, so it's not cheap or for the faint of heart.
DON'T BUY
Has lost its mystique. Has had a nice move, as it's benefiting from the trend to digitization. Expected revenue growth is not that strong.
WATCH

Last mile delivery is on everyone's mind and a key component for the consumer. Walmart's in the hunt to do that. In that arena, if he had to choose between AMZN and WMT, he'd choose AMZN. It's coming from a position of power, whereas WMT is old school, bricks and mortar mentality.

HOLD

At the heart of debate on hydrogen power. Used in forklifts and such so that the Amazons and Walmarts of the world can reduce carbon footprint. He has a small position in BLDP instead. Both will do well as the market grows and the infrastructure builds out. Accounting issues at PLUG suggest caution.

BUY

He has a small position in BLDP instead of PLUG, as it's a recognized leader with a track record in PEM technology. They've diversified outside autos and into buses and forklifts, trains and ships. Will do well as the market grows and the infrastructure builds out.

COMMENT
They've expanded globally. It just adds tenants to existing towers, which increases revenue. Expectations for mobile growth are still at 8%. 5G is really driving revenue growth, but what happens after 5G? Improved decreases in latency may continue to be important for business, if not so much for consumers.
TOP PICK
Still 30% below pre-Covid highs, but well positioned to recover. Structurally growing market, with very high barriers to entry. Growth expansion supported by increasing middle class in EM. Efficiency gains from fleet renewal could be a benefit. No dividend. (Price target is in Euros.) (Analysts’ price target is $107.32)
TOP PICK
Global leader. Deliveries are firing on all cylinders. Reaching critical masses in densities and geographies. In economies that are recovering faster, they're almost back at 100% pre-Covid bookings. Sees topline growth 40-50% over next 2 years, and sees stock approaching $80. Going to be a go-to platform in the last-mile solution for prescriptions and alcohol. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $71.74)
TOP PICK

The traditional car makers have finally made moves to catch up to Tesla. In one of the best positions to benefit from cyclical and secular trends. Margins are improving, leading to a higher stock multiple. Yield is 2.30%. (Analysts’ price target is $84.65)

Central banks want low rates to allow for recovery to take hold. Savings rates are high and there is an anything but cash mentality. Limited supply assets become more valuable when governments prints more money. Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free

Billy Kawasaki’s Insights - Billy’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. There has been no news to account for the recent pull-back. It is probably profit taking since it is up 86% this year. Growth stocks in general have seen weakness. Remains interesting and finances look good. Revenue base is still low and expectations are high. It will likely perform not as well in a weak overall market environment. Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free
