Will benefit from today's FDA granting full approval to Pfizer's Covid drug, which will encourage cross-border travel. He's long liked this. This and Mastercard have been beaten up despite reporting strong quarters.
GXO spin-off Splitting up a business can unlock value. GXO is the spin-off from XPO whose CEO boasts a long record of creating value when he ran United Rentals. The CEO consolidated in a highly fragmented industry by buying many companies. From 2014-2018, shares quadrupled. Then, the stock stumbled until last December 2020 when XPO did the spin-off. XPO kept the freight transportation and truck brokerage business, while spinning off the lucrative contract logistics division to make it the second-largest company in this space globally. Which one to buy? The XPO spun-off has given XPO a 73% gain since Jan. 2020. GXO has already surged from $57-79 after only a few weeks. People want a logistics stock, important to the new e-commerce economy. He likes both. XPO has more upside. GXO's warehouses give great exposure to e-commerce and logistics outsourcing, powerful long-term trends. GXO could be lowballing its forecasts and faces little competition in this space. There's still room to run here, too.

Was spun off from L Brands. It was an ailing brand that failed to adjust their strategy and out of date to its key demographic. It didn't help that the ex-CEO of L-Brands bankrolled the disgraced Jeffrey Epstein. However, not they're aiming their marketing at women, not men, and face easy comps YOY when sales were weak. He'll give this the benefit of the doubt. It trades at only 9x earnings. All it has to do is show modest improvement to rally.
Was spun off from L Brands. He likes it. But it's against tough comps YOY, because last year's performance was strong. Will trade at 15x 2022's earnings estimates. This is a steal. Splitting up a business can unlock value.
