PBRMarketTools reviews summaries from the most recently released The PBR1000 Snapshots and those from one and two calendar years earlier to produce some analytics to help understand what is happening in this unique set of companies. This is the October 2021 edition.

*Note: All companies on The PBR1000 with a fiscal year ending August 2021 filed their annual 10-K reports with the US Securities and Exchange Commission by October 29, 2021, from which most of this financial data is derived.

Some observations:

Revenues: Retailers, hospitality, and travel related industries have been significantly adversely affected during the pandemic. On the other hand e-commerce, communications technologies, and healthcare industries were beneficiaries. The bottom line is that revenues fell only 2.69% from 2019 to 2020, but for the last 12 months through July 2021 indications are that a recovery is in progress. 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, the usual profits and earnings per share levels will return, and The Stock Market Bull should continue to dominate. The new caveats are recent supply logistics challenges, plentiful jobs available but not being filled, possible impacts of future COVID-19 variants, unpredictability of climate change, other unforeseen natural disasters, the takeover of the White House by a small well-trained group of Maori warriors, an accidental start of a nuclear war, Tom Brady and LeBron James retiring from professional sports, a large undetected rogue asteroid striking earth, an attack by extraterrestrial forces, an unexpected explosion of the sun, and the second coming of Jesus Christ, to name just a few.

The Week 45 of 2021 US Stock Market News Recap

The Week 45 of 2021 US Stock Market News Recap

Stocks Stock Market Bull Bear Investing

The Stock Market Bear got angry after The Stock Market Bull gets record highs on Monday, comes back with a vengeance to take Week 45, his first since Week 39.

By Larry C. Paxton

The US Stock Market Week 45 Summary:

The Stock Market Bull continued his previous week’s dominance on Monday with record closes on all three major US stock indices. The Stock Market Bear became angry, and with the help of inflationary fears, slashed his way to good sized Tuesday and Wednesday battle wins. Thursday was mixed in favor of The Stock Market Bull, who then had a big day on Friday. But it was not enough to erase the losses. The Stock Market Bear gets a 3-0 Week 45 victory, his first since Week 39, but The Stock Market Bull still has a huge edge for 2021. Did his Friday surge signal what will happen in Week 46?

The US Stock Market October 2021 Summary:

September came to a close with The Stock Market Bear getting his first monthly win in 2021 and there was a concern that it could happen in November as well. However, The Stock Market Bull entered the pasture determined that there was a new sheriff in town and proceeded to overwhelm The Stock Market Bear by taking all four full weeks of October. Why? The economy continues to ramp up in just about all sectors. This despite continuing COVID-19 pandemic, supply logistics issues, labor shortages, and federal government delays in approving new trillions of dollars in spending plans. Now the holiday season is upon us with forecasts of record retail sales, declining weekly initial jobless claims, mortgage rates continuing to stay low, and an economy that seems like it wants to burst out. We wish you the best as we enter the holiday season, and hope it is a merry and bright one!

The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks October 2020 12 Month Report Card

The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks October 2020 12 Month Report Card

Stocks PBR25 PBR1000 Report Card Investing Investor

The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks 12 Month Report Card for October 2020 gets a ‘D’ unless you want to make just one change, which would then get it an ‘A’ grade!

By Larry C. Paxton

Welcome to The October 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 investing in stocks 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 professional stock analysts did.

Last 12 Months Influences

It is difficult to forecast a result with much accuracy over a 12 month period. For example, the primary impact in October 2020 continued to be the COVID-19 pandemic. The world, including the US, was deep into the COVID-19 pandemic, which created a lot of unemployment, affected many economic sectors like hospitality and travel services, closed schools, forced people to work from home, and much more. It was also the last full month of a very contentious US Presidential election process. There are a lot more factors, 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 October 2020 and the actual results 12 months later at the end of October 2021. PBRMarketTools is calling this a Report Card.

For this October 2020 Report Card we used stock data and forecasts from October 30, 2020, and compare it to the actual results on October 29, 2021.

Creating The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks List for October 2020

The starting point is the prestigious The PBR1000 US Public Companies, 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 PBR1000The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks list for October 2020 was then created using the following process:

  • At any point in time The PBR1000 has around 15,000 stock analyst recommendations.
  • The PBR1000 is sorted several times to come up with The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks, made up of stocks that are rated a “Buy” by analysts, have a 12 Month Targeted % Change of at least +20%, and have at least 10 “Buy” recommendations.

Actual Results for The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks for October 2021

  • None of The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks for October 2020 companies were acquired, and none did a stock split, so no data was altered for this report.

Following is a table of characteristics and 12 month actual results for the The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks on October 30, 2020, which we are calling the October 2020 report card.

Conclusions, Observations, Validations and Realities

  • If you had bought 1 share each of The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks at the closing price on October 30, 2020, you would have achieved a +23.22% gain 12 months later at the close on October 29, 2021, less than the 26.43% estimate, a good return, but below the 12 month forecast and below the returns on the DJIA, NASDAQ, and S&P500 indices. For this reason The October 2020 The PBR25 gets a ‘D’ on its 12 month Report Card.
  • On the other hand, the Amazon(AMZN) stock price was over half the total of 25 stocks, it forecasted a 25.27% return, actual was 11.8%. If you take out AMZN the results would have been a forecast of a 27.59% gain, actual would have been 35.49%, which would have exceeded the forecast and over returns on the DJIA, NASDAQ, and S&P500 indices. The October 2020 12 Month Report Card would have then been an ‘A’ grade.
  • 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 “Dollar Cost Averaging 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 of  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 October 2021, 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 November 2020, and should be available early to mid December, 2021.

The Week 43 of 2021 US Stock Market News Recap

The Week 43 of 2021 US Stock Market News Recap

Stock Market Stocks Bull Bear Investing Investor Money

The Stock Market Bull caps off an amazing October in Week 43 of 2021 by achieving 9 record closes in 15 sessions.

By Larry C. Paxton

The US Stock Market Week 43 Summary:

October 2021 was all about The Stock Market Bull, who got complete 3-0 victories in each of the 4 full weeks. It was revenge for September, the only month he has lost so far this year to The Stock Market Bear. In the first 3 weeks The Stock Market Bear came out charging, making a lot of noise, and getting some flesh on Mondays, only to have The Stock Market Bull kick his butt out of the pasture the remaining days. Week 43 was different, however. The Stock Market Bull took command immediately, took 13 of the 15 sessions from the 3 major US stock indices and had 9 record high closes, with the 3-0 trifecta on Friday to close out Week 43 and October in spectacular style.

The US Stock Market Week 42 Summary:

In Week 42 The Stock Market Bull gets his trifecta of winning weeks by taking all 3 major US stock market indices by good sized margins, taking 10 of the 15 trading sessions, including setting new records on the S&P500 and DJIA, and coming close to doing so on the NASDAQ. The best The Stock Market Bear could do was inflict some minor scratches when The Stock Market Bull took a very brief rest. Much of the results could be attributed to good quarterly corporate earnings reports, no out-of-line economic results, COVID-19 booster shots getting approvals from the FDA and CDC, and everything else pretty much staying the same as it was before. Congrats to The Stock Market Bull for his convincing 3-0 Week 42 victory.

Some observations:

Revenues: Retailers, hospitality, and travel related industries have been significantly adversely affected during the pandemic. On the other hand e-commerce, communications technologies, and healthcare industries were beneficiaries. The bottom line is that revenues fell only 2.69% from 2019 to 2020, but for the last 12 months through July 2021 indications are that a recovery is in progress. 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, the usual profits and earnings per share levels will return, and The Stock Market Bull should continue to dominate. The new caveats are based on possible impacts of COVID-19 variants, unpredictability of climate change, other unforeseen natural disasters, the takeover of the White House by a small well-trained group of Maori warriors, an accidental start of a nuclear war, Tom Brady and LeBron James retiring from professional sports, a large undetected rogue asteroid striking earth, an attack by extraterrestrial forces, an unexpected explosion of the sun, and the second coming of Jesus Christ, to name just a few.
