DON'T BUY

Reports this week. Electronics has been tough this past year, thought he thinks PC sales are bottoming. Despite paying a 5.5% dividend. Expect 1-2 more quarters of soft sales before this turns around.

COMMENT

They've had seven quarters of declining sales. When this reports, will BB get a Target-like market reaction (low expectations, beats, so a strong rally) or will BB get Amazon'd?

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 17/22, Up 0.5%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Our PAST TOP PICK with BBY has triggered its stop at $70. To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time. This will result in a net investment gain of 11%, when combined with our previous recommendations.

DON'T BUY

Made a ton of money during the pandemic. One of the better-run retailers, but can't see how this is a competitive advantage over the long term. Challenging times ahead with e-commerce everywhere, so he'd rather own the WMTs and AMZNs of the world.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 17/22, Up 23.5%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with BBY has achieved its $86.00 objective. To remain disciplined, we recommend covering half the position at this time and trailing up the stop-loss (from $62.50) to $70.00.

BUY

She owns little retail. Her expectations for BB were so low, like a decline in same-store sales (10.5% decline this quarter, in fact) vs. expectations of a 13% decline. Better than expects, though it's not great. BB is used to managing their consumer electronics inventory, so BB's margins will be hindered compared to Target and Walmart are not as disciplined in managing their electronics inventory. So, there'll be compression in BB stores from promotional activity. Note: computer revenues this quarter are up 23% from Q4 2019, so consumer demand is still there, not dead. Don't forget the power of seasonal spending--and we're on the cusp of holiday spending. This bdoes well for November and December comps.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We reiterate BBY as a TOP PICK. The company has worked hard to streamline inventory systems, expand e-sales, and even leased out floor space to major brands to adjust growing inflationary pressure. It has inventory to supply gaming consoles and other key products heading into the holiday period. The stock trades at 9x earnings compared to peers at 36x. It pays a good dividend (which has grown for 18 consecutive years) and is backed by a payout ratio under 50% of cash flow. We recommend trailing up the stop-loss (from $50.00) to $62.50, looking to achieve $86 - upside over 26%. Yield 4.6% (Analysts’ price target is $86.13)

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Despite doom and gloom with inflation and a slow down in consumer spending, recently reported earnings beat expectations by 15% and boast a ROE of 58%. The company has worked hard to streamline inventory systems, expand e-sales, and even leased out floor space to major brands to adjust. The stock trades at 10x earnings compared to peers at 30x. It pays a good dividend, backed by a payout ratio under 30% of cash flow. We recommend placing a stop loss at $50, looking to achieve $86 - upside over 20%. Yield 4.95% (Analysts’ price target is $86.13)

TOP PICK

Social media mentions are up 1050% in the past 24h.

BUY

AHY: Accidental high-yielding stocks that have fallen so far that their dividends now pay huge. He's gun-shy retail, and BB has plunged from $142 last November to $85 today. Pays a 4.16% yield. Their near-term numbers are less than ideal, but managers have announced positive guidance through more services. Trades at only 8x earnings, maybe the cheapest ever. Shares are so low they are de-risked.

DON'T BUY

It reports Thursday. It got punished last time by reporting smaller margins due to supply shortages. But he expects them to turn it around. They're well run. However, people won't buy big TVs, because they'll be travelling instead. There are better stocks.

BUY

It's all right. Pays a 3% yield. They'll have a good quarter. Some feel that we've bought all the computing equipment we need to work from home, but that's wrong. He's puzzled why shares are below $100. Should be higher. Good balance sheet and great supply chain.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jun 22/21, Down 11%) Their Q4 was considered soft, but it still beat earnings by 7%. Operating costs went up due to advertising and supply chain. Still a buy for him. They just bought Current Healthcare to create its own telemedicine focused on seniors' care, a growth area, called Best Buy Health. Good valuation, strong earnings and revenues growth in 2022.

HOLD

Either buy or hold. Don't sell--shares are too low.

BUY

There have been crazy moves in the market lately. Best Buy rose 35% over two months, then surrendered half those gains instantly. There's a lot of oddness in the market but it will fade once we get over these supply chain bottlenecks, and those stocks will reverse course.
