Yet another car manufacturer reducing EV investment and delaying its transition to 100% EVs.

"Porsche has now watered down that goal by tying it explicitly to customer demand and developments in the EV sector."

Almost like economics and customer demand matter.

Ford continues to shift investment dollars away from EVs and into ICE vehicles.

"Ford recently shifted plans for its Canadian plant from being an all-electric vehicle hub to expanding Super Duty truck production."

Customer demand matters.

Costs matter.

Profits matter.

RT @DimitryNakhla: @DividendDynasty Yup! $MSCI finally got to my target price 🤞🏽

On April 10 2024, I shared my analysis on $MSCI suggesting it was overvalued at $542💵 & a good consideration at $450💵

Since that post, $MSCI is down -13.0% & is currently trading for $473💵

As I stated in my analysis:

“As you can see, $MSCI appears to have attractive return potential if we assume >34x earnings, leaving us with no margin of safety

Given the multiple expansion over the last 10 years, deteriorating balance sheet, & a reduction in the growth rate, I’d demand greater value from $MSCI

I’d likely get more interested in $MSCI closer to $450💵 or at ~31x earnings (~16.5% below todays price)”

RT @DimitryNakhla: Attention investors ‼️ — I am SURE this post will sharpen your investing mindset and skills. Take a couple minutes to read it in full - it'll be a game-changer for your investment journey.

Yesterday I shared a poll asking if you thought $BMY was undervalued or a value trap, given its 17.32% FCF Yield.

Before I share my opinion, I believe it’s CRITICAL to emphasize the importance of being selective when building a portfolio.

Imagine you were the manager of a fútbol club (in this case Liverpool FC 😉) and you have to choose your Starting XI.

Would you add $BMY? .. More on this later.

You can see my Starting XI in the photo below.

It’s a club of exceptional businesses that have wide moats, pristine balance sheets, excellent returns on invested capital and quality revenues & earnings.

$BMY on the other hand doesn’t really fit in this club as it fails to meet these standards.

Another way to demonstrate this is if you were building a fútbol club & you could choose ANY footballer, I’m sure your club may look something like this:

Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Jr, Jude Bellingham, Alison Becker, Virgil Van Dyke, David Alaba, Kyle Walker, Trent Alexander Arnold, & Ilkay Gundogan.

INVESTING IS NO DIFFERENT.

You have the opportunity to build a SUPERTEAM of quality businesses & nobody is forcing you to buy “subpar players” for your club.

As Warren Buffett even said:

“I could improve your ultimate financial welfare by giving you a ticket with only 20 slots in it so that you had 20 punches—representing all the investments that you got to make in a lifetime.”

The mistake MANY investors make is NOT being SELECTIVE enough.

Why add a subpar player to your squad when you could buy Ronaldo?

You’ll become a better investor and enhance your financial welfare by focusing on buying the world’s BEST & MOST QUALITY business when they trade at a fair or better valuation. This should be your focus.

Do not let the daily noise of the market sway you into buying a subpar company just because it trades for a low multiple.

So this brings us to $BMY.

Although $BMY may “appear” undervalued due to its low multiple & high FCF Yield, it could be a value trap and does not belong in my “superteam” of companies.

In short, it lacks many of the qualities I mentioned for the other businesses & has a poor history of performance.

Just have a look at the long-term growth of $BMY Revenues, EPS, & Balance Sheet and you’ll be very unimpressed.

Sure, $BMY may “have moments of excellence” (as any footballer may have in the occasional game) with nice rallies off its lows, but this doesn’t make $BMY a consistent performer for my club.

Yes, it’s important to consider the future when investing (which isn’t even bright for $BMY at the moment). However, it doesn’t mean we should forget about the poor performances $BMY has had over the last 15 years.

I wouldn’t want to count on a player who’s been performing poorly over 15 seasons and hope that this player will finally show me moments of consistent brilliance for the next 5 seasons.

Also, we should to be wise and consider the opportunity cost of owning subpar businesses over excellent businesses over the years.

I am sure there are many investors who have owned $BMY for the last ~5 years in hopes that $BMY would eventually see it supposed “value” realized.

Meanwhile, the same investors would have been better off, owning more shares of companies like $V $MA $GOOG $META $ASML $LRCX $NVDA $MSFT $CRM $VRTX $TMO $AAPL etc.

This was my Achilles Heel when I first started my investment journey in 2016. I was TOO focused on valuation & lower multiples rather than QUALITY & growth at a reasonable price.

So when you’re[...]

building your club of equities, don’t buy a bench player in place of Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo. You’d just be downgrading your team & winning less.

If you made it this far, hope this helped!

Feel free to share your starting XI 😉

$BMY currently trades for a 17.32% FCF Yield, doubling its 10-year average FCF Yield of 8.46%

Is $BMY a value trap or is it undervalued?

I will share my thoughts on $BMY once the poll is complete 👇🏽
