Allison Transmission Holdings (ALSN) is a mid-cap manufacturer of vehicle transmissions. Many investors view this company as a low-margin producer of car and light truck transmissions that is destined for obscurity in an electric vehicle world. But that’s misguided for a key reason, counsels Bruce Kaser, editor of Cabot Value Investor.
Antici…pation. That seems to be where the stock market is right now. Not a lot is happening, but soon a lot will happen. Tech earnings are just around the corner, which should help reveal whether the Magnificent Seven mega-cap tech stocks are worth their current prices. Meanwhile, I like Gates Industrial Corp. (GTES), writes Bruce Kaser, editor of Cabot Value Investor.
We are generally not the biggest fans of private equity. Our biggest concern is that, while earlier private equity and venture capital funds were remarkably successful in identifying and capturing highly profitable investments, more recent vintages have mostly produced large profits for the fund managers. Meanwhile, take a look at a tech-sector value play: Cisco Systems (CSCO), writes Bruce Kaser, editor of Cabot Value Investor.
The attention of most investors, commentators, and analysts has been on the winners, notably the Magnificent Seven, driving this year’s stock market rally. But of course, there are 493 other stocks in the S&P 500 and hundreds of other large-cap and mid-cap stocks not in this famous index. One potential turnaround play I like is Wolverine World Wide (WWW), writes Bruce Kaser, editor of Cabot Turnaround Letter.
