Some observations:

Revenues: Retailers, hospitality, and travel related industries were significantly adversely affected. On the other hand e-commerce, communications technologies, and healthcare industries were beneficiaries. The bottom line is that revenues fell only 2.24% from the 12 months ending June 2021. But profits, earnings per share, and to some extent dividends were significantly impacted. While there were negative and positive shifts in revenues, the bottom line is that it was almost a wash. Of course, these numbers and analytics reflect The PBR1000, the largest publicly held corporations in the US. Smaller businesses certainly were much more affected.

Stock Market: The stock market, which was in a long term bull market, took some big hits at the beginning of the pandemic. But as the analytics show, the recovery was also very dramatic, one of the best years for equities investors. The Average Weighted Analyst Estimates shows an uptick and there was a nice growth in the number of Buy stocks.

Some Conclusions:

There was a shift and rebalancing of revenues in The PBR1000, with the total effect much less dramatic than for most smaller and midsize businesses.

The initial panic over the pandemic had a big effect on the stock market, but it recovered quite nicely. As industries that were the most negatively affected recover there should continue to be significant growth opportunities as the “new normal” sets in, the economy should have robust growth, and The Stock Market Bull should continue to dominate.

The US Stock Market Week 28 Summary:

With great confidence The Stock Market Bull continued his romp through the pasture by establishing new record closes on all three major US stock indices on Monday. Proud of himself, on Tuesday he wandered off into a field of grass for a nice roll and long day nap. The Stock Market Bear saw his chance and took Tuesday by around the same margin. The Stock Market Bull returned on Wednesday and took 2 out of 3 indices. At that point it looked like the week would be a mixed win result for the Bull. Thursday the Bear returned the favor, took a big gouge out of the NASDAQ, and it appeared the week would be a Bear mixed win. On Friday the Bull decided it didn’t want to play, the Bear took charge with a big day and gets an outright 3-0 win in Week 28.

The Stock Market Bull took Week 22, Week 25, and Week 26, had a 2-1 mixed result for Week 23.

The US Stock Market Week 26 Summary:

On Monday The Stock Market Bear had a strong day on the DJIA, but The Stock Market Bull aggressively countered with record closes on the NASDAQ and S&P500. The Stock Market Bull then continued to dominate the whole week, finishing it with an amazing trifecta of record closes in all three major US stock indices. The DJIA came from quite a ways back to establish the new record, previously set on 05/07/21. Friday was the third record close for the NASDAQ for the week, and the seventh in a row over the past two weeks for the S&P500. The Stock Market Bull notches a big 3-0 win in Week 26.

  • Good economic news was the primary driver for The Stock Market Bull‘s outstanding week.
  • Consumer and business surveys indicated optimism as the COVID-19 pandemic starts to fade away.
  • Home prices continue to rise and the FreddieMac average 30 year home fixed mortgage rate fell to 2.98%.
  • The jobs reports were big drivers with ADP reporting +692,000 new jobs in the private sector, the US Dept of Labor said the US economy added 850,000 jobs in June, and reported that weekly initial jobless claims fell to 364,000 and is very near pre-pandemic levels.
  • Another driver was some cautious optimism that President Biden’s infrastructure development plan, modified greatly from its initial proposal, has a chance for bipartisan support.
  • The first half of 2021 ends on a positive note with encouraging signs that it might continue in the second half as well.

The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks May 2020 12 Month Report Card

The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks May 2020 12 Month Report Card

Stocks PBR25 PBR1000 Report Card Subscribe

The May 2020 ThePBR25 became ThePBR23, gets an ‘A’ for its 12 Month Report Card.

By Larry C. Paxton

Welcome to The May 2020 The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks 12 Month Report Card.

As investors we count on professional stock analysts to provide comprehensive and diligent research to come up with their best take on how stocks will perform over the next 12 months. We then use that information to help us make stock buy, hold and sell decisions.

The PBR25 Premise

The premise of The PBR25 is that there is a high probability of success for stock investing when a large enough number professional stock analysts through their extensive research determine that a stock is a “Buy” and also forecasts a significant return over the next 12 months. PBRMarketTools assigns a Report Card grade based on how the stock analysts did.

Last 12 Months Influences

Since May 2020 a lot has happened that was not predicted and not part of analyst estimates at that time:

  • COVID-19 Pandemic. The World Health Organization(WHO) had declared an official pandemic on March 11, 2020. At the end of May 2020 WHO said the world was averaging around 120,000 new cases per day. In the US it was a little over 20,000 per day.
  • On May 25, 2020 George Floyd, a black man, died a very visible death with his neck under the knee of a policeman. Other similar types of incidents occurred as well. The response was a lot of  civil unrest. The policeman was convicted of all charges by a jury in April 2021, but racial inequality concerns are still very present.
  • There was a very contentious 2020 US Presidential campaign that exacerbated how fractured the US is politically. President Biden has been in office for a few months now, there seems to be a general sense of acceptance, and certainly the political environment has become a lot less volatile.

There is a lot more that can be said, but this is not meant to be an opinions post. It is a piece focused on the review of the recommendations stock analysts came up with at the end of May 2020 and the actual results 12 months later at the end of May 2021. PBRMarketTools is calling this a Report Card.

Creating The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks List for May 2020

The starting point is the prestigious The PBR1000, produced monthly by PBRMarketTools. To be included in The PBR1000 the 1,000 companies must meet the following criteria:

  • The companies must be publicly traded on the NYSE, NYSE American or NASDAQ stock exchanges, with a very few temporarily trading on the Over-The-Counter market because they are transitioning from bankruptcy.
  • They must be headquartered in the US or have primary operations in the US.
  • They must have generated at least $1 billion in revenues in their most recent full fiscal year.
  • They must file an annual 10-K form with the US Securities and Exchange Commission in US dollars
  • Each of the 1,000 companies is given a primary ranking based on revenues, with the company having the highest revenue amount ranked 1(currently Walmart). There are 27 secondary rankings in The PBR1000 based on other criteria as well.

Each month the 12 month estimates and recommendations by stock analysts are updated on The PBR1000. The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks list for May 2020 was then created using the following process:

  • At any point in time The PBR1000 has around 15,000 stock analyst recommendations.
  • The PBR1000 was sorted by stock analyst recommendations.
  • Those stocks rated a “Buy” were then further sorted by the number of “Buy” recommendations.
  • For May 2020 a cut off of at least 12 “Buy” recommendations was then sorted by each stock’s weighted average, with a Buy being worth 5 points, Overweight 4 points, Hold 3 points, Underweight 2 points and Sell 1 point. The maximum weighted average is 5.00. For a stock to achieve a “Buy” recommendation its weighted average must be greater than 4.50.
  • The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks list was finalized by doing a descending sort by the weighted averages.

Actual Results for The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks for March 2021

  • One energy related company, Parsley Energy, ranked 6 on the May 2020 PBR25, was acquired in January, 2021. In July 2020 InterActiveCorp, ranked 8 on the May 2020 The PBR25, did a spin-off of its Match Group unit as a separate independent public company. Similarly, in May 2021 it also did a spin-off of its Vimeo unit. These actions and adjustments significantly altered its stock price, so it is also excluded. Therefore, this analysis is based on the 23 remaining companies.

Following is a table of characteristics and actual results for the May 29, 2020, The PBR25.

Conclusions, Observations, Validations and Realities

  • If you had bought 1 share each of The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks at the closing price on May 29, 2020, you would have achieved a +37.80% gain 12 months later at the close on May 28, 2021, nearly four times the 9.89% estimate and  an excellent return. Also, it compares favorably to the returns on the DJIA, NASDAQ, and S&P500 indices. For this reason, The May 2020 The PBR25 gets an ‘A’ on its 12 month Report Card.
  • It is difficult to forecast out 12 months with any great accuracy, there are just too many variables and uncertainties.
  • However, it does demonstrate that The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks is a valid methodology and process for that particular month.
  • Our demonstration account, called The Charlie Fund, uses the popular “Buy & Hold with Consistent Monthly Investment Strategy” with the monthly The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks as the primary research tool. For the 12 Month Report Card period it achieved a greater than 50% return, a further validation of the methodology.
  • There are no guarantees! The reality is that there will always be ups and downs in the stock market and people make stocks buy, hold and sell decisions based on a wide range logical and emotional criteria, input from knowledgeable hard-working experts and well meaning friends, and if the sky is blue today. But the historical data is pretty convincing that stocks will trend up at an above average investment rate over the long haul.

Additional Information

  • The details of this summary, including company names and the over 200 fields of information for each company, were extracted from the updated The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks MS-Excel worksheet for May 2020, and has been distributed to The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks Subscribers for their personal use and further research
  • The next 12 Month Report Card will be for June 2020, and should be available between mid to late July 2021.

For the US it is 33,517,146 confirmed cases and 601,239 deaths, +2,156 from last week, which is -17 from the prior week. In the US the push is still being made to have at least 70% of the target population have at least 1 shot by July 4th, which still appears to be achievable. Vaccines are readily available through several of the usual sources across the US. Quite a few states are offering a variety of incentives and rewards to get vaccinated. More doses are being acquired for distribution to underserved populations worldwide, but there are often logistical issues, concerns about the special conditions required to keep the vaccines viable, and using the vaccines before expiration dates.

On the other hand e-commerce, communications technologies, and healthcare industries were beneficiaries. The bottom line is that revenues fell only 3.34% from the 12 months ending May 2021. But profits, earnings per share, and to some extent dividends were significantly impacted. While there were negative and positive shifts in revenues, the bottom line is that it was almost a wash. Of course, these numbers and analytics reflect The PBR1000, the largest publicly held corporations in the US. Smaller businesses certainly were much more affected.

Stock Market: The stock market, which was in a long term bull market, took some big hits at the beginning of the pandemic. But as the analytics show, the recovery was also very dramatic, one of the best years for equities investors. The Average Weighted Analyst Estimates shows an uptick and there was a nice growth in number of Buy stocks.

Some Conclusions:

There was a shift and rebalancing of revenues in The PBR1000, with the total affect much less dramatic than for most smaller and midsize businesses.

The initial panic over the pandemic had a big effect on the stock market, but it recovered quite nicely. As industries that were the most negatively affected recover there should continue to be significant growth opportunities as the “new normal” sets in, the economy should have robust growth, and The Stock Market Bull should continue to dominate.
