COMMENT
Russian threat of invading Ukraine The action of the last few days is pricing in the Russian conflict against Ukraine. Volatility remains and is making is difficult for traders. For investors, they will be okay looking out 12 months. 70% of the S&P has now reported, with many record profit margins. The Russian conflict is pricing out the bullishness not only in oil, but many commodities like aluminum. But it's also a knee-jerk reaction, though it impacts inflation overall.
BUY
IWM small-caps, healthcare, banks and real estate. He's moving into small-caps for the next 12 months, doing less trading and more long-term investing.
BUY
It pays a dividend under 4%, and dividend growth has been 10% in the last three years. Also, it boasts a very low beta of 0.82.
BUY
It's the Tesla of farming; autonomous tractors are coming. They report this week.
COMMENT
Russian threats of invading Ukraine The real threat is interest rates. It's a long-term (1-3 years perhaps) consideration/challenge for investors and impacts how an investor values a company and makes investment decisions. Keep an eye on CPI data. What's going on with Russia-Ukraine is terrible from a humanity standpoint, but it doesn't impact her investing decisions; it's short-term.
DON'T BUY
You can't just buy "tech" now. You must work to find companies with logical valuations that offer earnings growth. Some tech stocks have that, some don't. The strategy playback that worked the last 5 years won't work in the coming 5 years.
BUY
She trusts management in buying Splunk. If she doesn't already own Splunk, then she wouldn't want Cisco to own it--but she trusts Cisco's CEO. When they report earnings, she expects a solid quarter, no negative surprises. This is exactly the company to own in this environment. Trades at 15x earnings, with expected 6-8% earnings growth for the next few years. It's do-able. As people work from home and the office, demands for networking will be higher and higher.
BUY
Kinda boring, a good, long-term stock. Pays a 4.8% dividend, trading at 8x earnings which should grow around 3-5%. It doesn't matter what happens to interest rates or Russia. Verizon will be fine.
BUY
She bought it two years, feeling that theme parks will bounce back strongly based on tourism, including international. She targeted $200. Obviously, the recovery is slower than expected and she doesn't know how long it will take, but shares are definitely heading in the right direction. Theme park numbers in this quarter were awesome.
BUY
On a private-market value, this should be up dramatically, maybe twice at trading levels. It pays a near-10% dividend yield which is sustainable.
COMMENT
Russian invasion of Ukraine Russia invaded Crimea in 2014 and that had little impact on the US impact. Today, Russia has little impact on US markets, though perhaps it could impact energy globally, certainly Germany. The real driver is inflation. He's seeking stocks that are impacted by interest rates. Look at how discount rates impact company cash flows (well into the future) and the companies' growth? So, look at shorter-term duration stocks.
BUY
A long-term dividend pick that pays a 6% dividend and focusses on natural gas. That's a much cleaner-burning fuel with demand from Europe and especially Asia. Growth coming from Asia. You can hold this long-term.
BUY
They have a diverse chipmaker that are sold to industrials, the internet of things and cars. It boasts good profitability, valuation and growth at these levels.
BUY
There's strong demand for breakfast cereals, bacon and pet food.
COMMENT
Russian aggression towards Ukraine We have the lowest confidence reading since 2011, given sharp inflation. Besides Russian aggression, remember that China has been aggressive towards Taiwan, which could elevate after the Olympics. Stocks will be higher in a year or two. Short-term, take profits and hold more cash. He's been 15-17% cash for quite a while and will stay this high.
