COMMENT
Central banking policies top of mind the past few weeks. US Federal Reserve hawkish announcement worth noting. Leaning towards a defensive portfolio in light of inflation. Feels equities are the best use of capital at the moment. Cash and fixed income low returns. Avoid uncertain business models, or low yield businesses.
COMMENT
Thinks that energy infrastructure, financials and REIT's are attractive outlet for capital.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Great businesses however, thinks that railroad stocks (CP & CN) are overvalued. Growth outlooks don't justify valuations. Wait to buy on a pullback. Free cash flow yields are too low low (~3.5%) 20x earnings an attractive point of entry.

BUY
A number of different business units with potential. Likes Johnson & Johnson as it is a well run company. Very inexpensive stock with free cash flow yield is ~5% and forward P/E ratio at 16x. Executive stock compensation is reason why buybacks aren't reducing share count. Share buybacks are popular because managements can understand own business model better that alternative use of capital.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Thinks that Walmart is interesting because online platform is strong. However, playing catch up to Amazon. Walmart having difficult time convincing investors it is better than Amazon or Dollar Tree. Current valuation doesn't imply reason to buy. Wait until there is a pullback before buying.
BUY
Very unique business that is able to create and monetize original content. Doesn't think that Covid-19 will have long time effect on theme parks. Streaming business is doing very well and will be valuable down the road. High P/E Ration (~30) is justified as the business is valuable. As economy re-opens will do even better. Quarter to quarter announcements are not a good indication of value.
WATCH
Is an attractive sector (software), however, caution on buying as strategic plan is flawed. Concerns on IPO and privatization plans.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 29/21, Up 20%) Great defensive name and would buy today. Dividend yield 7%. Valuation of 10x times cash flow. Paying out 2/3 of cash flow. Will stick with this company.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 29/21, Up 54%) Many institutions own stock, however business has evolved very well. Business is good because it scales very well (capital management). Cash flows have exploded as business has scaled.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 29/21, Up 70%) Outlook for growth is exceptional. Potential for margin improvement. A good stock going forward in any economic environment.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Costco is exceptional business. Valuation relative to peers stands out (higher). Membership basis is very sticky. Prefers Dollar Tree over Costco. Wait to buy on market weakness.
COMMENT
Done really good job growing US business. A lot of avenues for capital allocation (stock buybacks, raise dividend) Lots of capital (overcapitalized).
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Exceptional business that he owns. Software business is very scalable. Trading at very high multiple. Would recommend waiting to buy on weakness in the market.
WATCH
Lots of talk about company breaking up into three separate business units. End goal is to realize value of all assets. Likely going to get better multiples with spinoffs. Can watch for preferable business unit with spinoffs.
