Great update as always. I have one question regarding the buys of these week when compared to last week: I see that there is no more PapaJohn's and Comcast. I know that Comcast has appreciated in price so it may not be as undervalued as it was. Regarding PapaJohn's I just assume that you do not buy more PapaJohns this week because there are better opportunities. Is my assumption right or PZZA has had some concerns with fundamentals that suggest not increasing the position in both portfolios? Thank you and thank you for the weekly updates!!
@RexJacobsen5 күн бұрын
Hi YT, I haven't looked into PZZA yet, but the reason Comcast came off the list was because one of my final filters is based on consensus future earnings growth estimate : if a stock's earnings aren't forecast to grow 5% or more for the next 12 months, my methodology eliminates it as a potential buy. The reason for this requirement is two-fold: 1) dividend stocks historically raise their dividends 5-6% per year; if a stock's earnings don't increase 5%, there's a decent chance they won't be able to increase their dividend that much, or at all; 2) stocks that historically do the best are ones that raise their dividends. And it just so happens that Comcast's current consensus earnings growth rate for the next 12 months is 4.9%, so it just barely missed the cut.

Hi Rex, I really enjoy your videos and your tone of voice (it's like a nice story time before bedtime 😊). A small question: I've noticed that you really execute sales. However, can you go into a bit more detail about when you would consider making a sale? Would it be because of overvaluation, a dividend cut, a spin-off, bad news, etc.?
@RexJacobsen5 күн бұрын
Hi keeennnny, the soothing narrator voice can be a detriment when students are watching my accounting lectures on KZbin late at night (although I blame their sleepiness on the sometimes-dry topic, not my voice 🙃). As for making sales, I will usually sell a stock when it cuts its dividend. I also look to potentially sell it if it's overall rating (based on 4 areas: valuation, quality, dividend-growth in the past, potential for future dividend growth) is no longer in the top 50%. I will also sell it if it's valuation rating indicates significant over-valuation. I could go over this in detail in a course once I figure out a new website platform.

Hi Draven, Good to hear from a fellow military member. Enlisted or officer? I haven't put these classroom stock portfolio strategies on my BeatTheStockMarket.com website yet because I'm looking into a new internet platform that is more mobile-phone-friendly than my current site. If the new platform works, the first step will be to put the weekly stock purchases of these classroom stock portfolios on the site in "real-time" on Mondays (as opposed to my Sunday KZbin videos which show the picks from the previous Monday). It would also include the total portfolio holdings in detail. Then, the second step, if people are interested, would be to explain how the strategies are done. Excel knowledge would definitely be needed. I'm sure some people could tweak our methodologies and figure out even better versions of the strategies. So stay tuned!

@RexJacobsen13 күн бұрын
Hi Draven, When trying to determine if a stock is over or under-valued, we want to make sure that our methodology is looking at the company’s future and not ONLY the recent past. This is so we can avoid buying a company whose business is about to tank. For example, if a drug company’s main source of profits is a single drug and that drug is going to go off patent, simply looking at the company’s Price-to-Earnings ratio won’t give you a warning sign. So we don’t use a simple formula that looks at past data to determine if a stock is undervalued; we need to look into the future which involves making estimates. And that’s where utilizing the time and effort of “trusted” analysts comes into play. Their full time job is to look at each individual company’s future outlook, something we obviously can’t do since we start with a database of 6,700 companies. And I say “trusted” analysts because many analysts are NOT independent and are simply courting companies with “buy” ratings on their stock in order to earn that company’s investment banking business (one such analyst company notoriously has a “sell” rating on only 0.4% of the stocks that they cover; when everything is a “buy,” then that company’s ratings are worthless). We are always tweaking our methodology, but for valuation, we currently use the target prices of independent analysts (preferably multiple analysts employing multiple philosophies, such value and growth-at-a-reasonable-price) and combine that with the company’s risk profile to determine the company’s margin of safety (ala Warren Buffett and Benjamin Graham). Margin of safety is important because we’d rather invest in a low-risk stock that is 10% undervalued rather than a high-risk stock that is 13% undervalued. And of course, from there we do a deep dive into the company’s accounting practices to look for red flags/accounting irregularities to hopefully avoid frauds like Enron. And we look at dividend sustainability, growth potential, buy-backs, etc.

It's a cumulative portfolio. Meaning we deposit new funds each week, so of course the equity curve will go up and to the right even in a bad year like 2022. Even if the return was zero each and every week, the portfolio graph would rise because there are weekly deposits. You can see this for yourself using Excel. For 2022, use Excel and make a chart using an index ETF like SPY and track what a weekly $12.50 investment would look like on a chart. It's an actual Fidelity portfolio, not a backtest.

We've made several purchases of it so far for an average total return of 12.02% with an average holding period of 158 days (that's a 30.0% annualized return using Excel's RATE function). Per Morningstar, "After years of restructuring via the spinoff of its consumer unit and the spinoff and merger of its legacy drug portfolio with Mylan, plus recent internal shifts to align the business with the post-covid world, Pfizer is set to be more nimble and innovative. Now past the boom and bust of the covid-19 vaccine sales cycle, and with no material near term patent expirations, the company is poised to generate steadier results."

We have a 4-way rating that rates dividend-paying stocks based on 1) valuation, 2) quality, 3) dividend yield and recent dividend growth metrics, 4) Outlook for continued dividend growth. If a stock is no longer in the top 50%, it's on the watch list for possible sale. Also, if a stock's valuation looks extremely over-valued or it looks like the stock price will tank due to a business event, we'll sell. If a person wanted to keep it simple, they could just buy the quality stocks (not the under-the-radar-dividend payers) and hold forever, letting the winners run and letting the occasional losers just become insignificant parts of the portfolio overtime.
