We reiterate this company that is bringing AI integration to customers of Microsoft across multiple platforms including AWS and Google Cloud. We like that cash reserves are growing, whiles shares are aggressively bought back and debt is retired. It trades at 17x earnings and supports a ROE over 90%. Its modest dividend is backed by a payout ratio under 50% of cash flow. We recommend trailing up the stop (from $14.00) to $15.50, looking to achieve $22 — upside potential of 22%. Yield 2.8%
(Analysts’ price target is $21.75)We reiterate this reinsurance company as a TOP PICK. Earnings will be released by month's end, so we will see if the company will be able to continue its EPS growth rates that it has seen over the past five years. It trades at 6x earnings, 1.2x book and supports a ROE of 23%. Its dividend is backed by a payout ratio under 15% of cash flow. We continue to recommend a stop at $344, looking to achieve $430 -- upside potential of 17%. Yield 1.8%
(Analysts’ price target is $430.83)We reiterate PKI, one of the largest independent fuel retailers in North America, as a TOP PICK. We note the company is prudently using some cash reserves to retire debt, but it still maintains a dividend payout ratio under 55% of cashflow. We continue to recommend a stop at $41, looking to achieve $54 -- upside potential of 24%. Yield 3.1%
(Analysts’ price target is $54.25)A contrarian idea, which is how you make outsized returns. Has assembled a nice portfolio of brands over time. Nice job steering customers away from online competition by focusing on bulkier items. Price down due to recession fears. A reversion-to-the-mean play, aiming for 60% return back to all-time high of $215, plus impressive dividend. Yield is 5.2%.
Consumer pullback in spending during a recession is not a risk unique to CTC.A. All retailers face this. Very good profitability, strong balance sheet, trades at 12x earnings.
Another contrarian pick. Has a place in a diversified equity portfolio. Strong brand, blue chip. Conservative investment. Long-life, high-quality assets. Very attractive multiple is at 10-year low, cheaper than stock market and of higher quality. Yield is close to 9%.
Higher rates have pressured the share price of this interest-sensitive stock. High yield competes with higher bond returns. Increased competition has impacted share price. Regulatory environment has been challenging, with calls to share its network.
Global leader. Very well diversified geographically. Most revenue comes from fuel; the rest comes from snacks, lottery tickets, and merchandise. Serial acquirers, most recently from Total. Strong fundamentals, good profitability, attractive multiple. Yield is 0.9%.
(Analysts’ price target is $86.29)IPO at beginning of March. Priced at $32, opened at $58, shot up into the $80s, dropped into $60s with the general pullback. Still a bargain. Data-centric. Lets software companies connect quickly with the cloud, other software, and other networks. 12-month price target of $86, but can be sure that will be raised as it approaches. No dividend.
Put 3-5% of your portfolio in this, be well rewarded.
The first to gear semiconductor solutions toward optical cables. Known for system-on-a-chip architecture. Processing power right on the edge in a device. 12-month price target of $75. Yield is 0.36%.
(Analysts’ price target is $88.56)Massive company. 12-month price target of $1573. 3/4 revenue from semiconductors, 1/4 from infrastructure software. So very diversified. Yield is 1.7%.
(Analysts’ price target is $1516.67)
