NGL I kinda love this setup in copper right now.
• Bombed-out sentiment
• Overextended on the downside
• Found support at the 200D MA
Seems like a decent R/R trade with a stop below yesterday's lows.

JPMorgan has given employees of its asset and wealth management division access to a large language model the bank is calling LLM Suite, according to an internal memo seen by the Financial Times.
Executives told staff LLM Suite can help them with writing, idea generation and summarising documents. “Think of LLM Suite as a research analyst that can offer information, solutions and advice on a topic,” the memo told employees. It was signed by Mary Erdoes, head of JPMorgan’s asset and wealth management business in the memo, Teresa Heitsenrether, the bank’s chief data and analytics officer, and Mike Urciuoli, the asset and wealth management unit’s chief information officer. They described it as a “ChatGPT-like product” that was to be used for “general purpose productivity” to complement its other apps that handle sensitive financial information called Connect Coach and SpectrumGPT.
JPMorgan started introducing LLM Suite to pockets of the bank earlier this year and about 50,000 employees, or roughly 15 per cent of its staff, now have access to it, said a person familiar with the matter. The company does not disclose how many research analysts it employs. The rollout, which has not previously been reported, is one of Wall Street’s largest use cases for an LLM, especially one that has been built in-house. Morgan Stanley has partnered with OpenAI to use products for its wealth management business.

A sober valuation analysis on $MA 🧘🏽♂️
•NTM P/E Ratio: 29.16x
•10-Year Mean: 31.32x
•NTM FCF Yield: 3.48%
•10-Year Mean: 3.41%
As you can see, $MA appears to be trading below fair value
Going forward, investors can receive ~7% MORE in earnings per share & ~2% MORE in FCF per share 🧠***
Before we get into valuation, let’s take a look at why $MA is a super business
BALANCE SHEET✅
•Cash & Short Term Inv: $7.66B
•Long-Term Debt: $13.54B
$MA has a strong balance sheet, an A+ S&P Credit Rating & 19.79x FFO Interest Coverage
RETURN ON CAPITAL✅
•2019: 62.9%
•2020: 40.6%
•2021: 45.7%
•2022: 58.5%
•2023: 61.1%
•LTM: 64.1%
RETURN ON EQUITY✅
•2019: 141.4%
•2020: 102.5%
•2021: 124.7%
•2022: 144.0%
•2023: 167.4%
•LTM: 186.3%
$MA has excellent return metrics, highlighting the financial efficiency of the business
REVENUES✅
•2013: $8.31B
•2023: $25.10B
•CAGR: 11.68%
FREE CASH FLOW✅
•2013: $3.98B
•2023: $11.61B
•CAGR: 11.30%
NORMALIZED EPS✅
•2013: $2.61
•2023: $12.26
•CAGR: 16.73%
PAID DIVIDENDS✅
•2013: $0.29
•2023: $2.37
•CAGR: 23.37%
SHARE BUYBACKS✅
•2013 Shares Outstanding: 1.21B
•LTM Shares Outstanding: 939M
By reducing its shares outstanding ~22.4%, $MA increased its EPS by ~28.8% (assuming 0 growth)
MARGINS✅
•LTM Gross Margins: 100.0%
•LTM Operating Margins: 58.1%
•LTM Net Income Margins: 46.1%
***NOW TO VALUATION 🧠
As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~7% MORE in EPS & ~2% MORE in FCF per share
Using Benjamin Graham’s 2G rule of thumb, $MA has to grow earnings at a 14.58% CAGR over the next several years to justify its valuation
Today, analysts anticipate 2024 - 2026 EPS growth over the next few years to be slightly more than the (14.58%) required growth rate:
2024E: $14.27 (16.4% YoY) *FY Dec
2025E: $16.57 (16.1% YoY)
2026E: $19.33 (16.7% YoY)
$MA has a good track record of meeting analyst estimates ~2 years out, but let’s assume $MA ends 2026 with $19.33 in EPS & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples
31x P/E: $599.23💵 … ~14.9% CAGR
30x P/E: $579.90💵 … ~13.4% CAGR
29x P/E: $560.57💵 … ~11.9% CAGR
28x P/E: $541.24💵 … ~10.6% CAGR
As you can see, $MA appears to have attractive return potential EVEN if we assume greater or equal to 28x earnings (well-below the 10-year mean & more than justified given its quality & growth rate)
$MA is such a high-quality business & has the potential to compound in the mid teens for the next 5 years & companies with strong & consistent earnings growth tend to look cheap years later (even if investors thought they were “expensive” or even better, slightly undervalued, at the time)
Today at $429💵 $MA appears to be a strong consideration for investment
Given that $MA has historically bottomed near 26x earnings, I'd also leave some room to purchase additional shares if the stock were to trade at that multiple, which would be about 10% lower, or around $386💵
