COMMENT

Was upgraded today. She used to own it. The company isn't that transparent and iron ore is a tight market, but she prefers copper's supply/demand trend. Likes Vale's free cash flow and paying down debt.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 06/22, Up 3.3%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly

Our PAST TOP PICK with VALE has triggered its stop at $15.  To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time.  This will result in a net investment gain of 13%, when combined with our previous buy recommendation.  

DON'T BUY

It's based on Brazil, so there's unwanted political risk.

BUY

The market doesn't like Latin America where VALE operates, but copper prices are starting to fly, and so will VALE shares. This is a trade.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We reiterate VALE, the world's largest producer of iron and nickel - two critical components in infrastructure, batteries and steel -- as a TOP PICK. The company reports demand for ore outstrips supply and expects copper demand to rise too. It trades at only 4x earnings and 2x book. It pays a great dividend, backed by a payout ratio under 20% of cash flow. We recommend trailing up the stop-loss from $9.50 to $11.50, looking to achieve $17.50 -- upside potential over 18%. Yield 5.3% (Analysts’ price target is $17.47)

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly This TOP PICK is the world's largest producer of iron and nickel - two critical components in infrastructure, batteries and steel. The company just signed a deal with TSLA to supply nickel for its EV batteries. It trades at only 3x earnings and under 2x book. Recently reported earnings beat analyst expectations and support a ROE of 58%. It pays a great dividend, backed by a payout ratio under 20% of cash flow. We recommend placing a stop loss at $9.50, looking to achieve $17.00 -- upside potential over 35%. Yield 6.3% (Analysts’ price target is $17.21)
Unspecified
It is good company to own for iron ore and the resources space. It has kept with their core business and is doing much better than years ago. Well valued. BHP is one of its peers and because it is bigger it is less volatile in this space.
DON'T BUY
Has reported cost inflation on products. Trading close to net asset value. Two major lawsuits in the past years. Large environmental disasters causing headaches for company. Upcoming election in Brazil a risk. Does not think the dividend is sustainable.
DON'T BUY
Don't buy this going into a recession, which even the bulls feel is possible.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Not a safe stock to invest in, however dividend is strong. Disappointing quarter for investors. Stock price is cheap, ~5x trading multiple. Would add to portfolio and hold.
WEAK BUY
Brazilian. One of the largest in the world. Not expensive at 17x earnings, nice dividend yield. Large producer of iron ore. If you believe in the resource boom, you want to own a large cap, as it will protect you with earnings and dividends if the market moves around a lot. Cyclical, so not a great business overall.
DON'T BUY
Lots of environmental problems, and be wary of the 17% dividend.
DON'T BUY
He doesn't like commodity-producing companies. So hard to time entry and exit points. Long-term chart shows a nice dividend. He likes a company that can consistently raise prices, has organic revenue growth, and not subject to boom/bust.
