Woosh! Cochlear’s share price growth just hit 10,000 per cent
Sean Sequeira
April 18, 2023
Cochlear (ASX: COH) – the world leader in the profound hearing loss market – is, in our opinion, one of the highest quality companies on the ASX. Since listing in 1995, its share price has grown from $2.50 to around $250. That’s a rise of almost 10,000 per cent! This meteoric rise reflects the company’s ability to deliver consistent double-digit revenue and earnings growth each year. And with its market still significantly underpenetrated, we believe there are many more good years to come. continue…

After losing its froth, is Breville a ‘buy’ once more?
Roger Montgomery
April 14, 2023
I’ve followed Breville Group (ASX: BRG) – which makes and markets home appliances such as coffee makers – for a long time. And I’ve always been impressed by the firm’s management, approach and execution. With the current share price around 40 per cent off its highs, and the company trading on a retailer-type price to earnings (P/E) ratio, I think there’s an opportunity for investors to buy this quality business at an attractive price. continue…

David Buckland
April 3, 2023
One of the reasons our business partners, Australian Eagle Asset Management, Montgomery Lucent and Polen Capital, focus on higher quality companies with relatively strong and enduring cash-flow is they rarely suffer such crashes often requiring highly dilutionary capital raisings. continue…

How to manage risk in your portfolio
Sean Sequeira
March 24, 2023
Most of us tend to be better at buying and holding stocks than we are at selling. After all, buying is the fun part – it’s when optimism is kicking in. But knowing how to sell is just as important when it comes to your returns. Because recycling capital into higher quality stocks with a lower downside risk is how you improve the quality of your portfolio. continue…

Roger Montgomery
March 13, 2023
On 7 March, funeral services provider, Invocare (ASX:IVC), received an unsolicited, non-binding indicative offer from giant U.S. private equity firm, TPG Global. TPG offered to buy all the shares in IVC through a scheme of arrangement for $12.65 per share – a 40 per cent premium to its previous close. Based on a quick calculation, I think this is a pretty good deal for IVC shareholders. continue…

Is QBE finally back on track?
Sean Sequeira
March 9, 2023
Just a cursory glance at the share price history of QBE Insurance Group (ASX:QBE) is enough to scare most investors away. After hitting a high of around $34 back in 2007, the stock has more than halved to around $15. But a new management team seems to be steering the business in the right direction, and many analysts see QBE as a turnaround story. continue…

A tough road ahead for consumer discretionary businesses
David Buckland
March 2, 2023
In late-2022 Australian household deposits were $175 billion above trend, and this “extra cash” was largely in the hands of the 65+ years of age cohort. After many years of financial repression, these older Australians will enjoy earning a more reasonable return on their spare cash. continue…
