Is it time to invest in travel stocks?
Tim Kelley
August 24, 2020
As far as listed companies go, travel stocks are probably ground zero for COVID-19. They have been among the hardest hit in terms of business and share price impacts, and share prices generally remain well below their pre-COVID-levels. continue…

Five companies likely to benefit from a COVID-19 vaccine
Roger Montgomery
August 20, 2020
As with everything else, there are two camps when it comes to investment conditions today. There are two camps regarding whether the market is expensive (it probably is), whether economic conditions are deteriorating or improving, whether governments and central banks can continue Keynesian intervention indefinitely, and there’s two schools of thought as to whether there’ll be a vaccine. continue…

Gary Rollo
August 18, 2020
When it comes to investing, we’re not big fans of airlines. But in the case of Alliance Aviation Services (ASX: AQZ), we’re happy to make an exception. You see, Alliance operates fly-in fly-out charter services for Australian mining companies, and its flights are in demand. With high returning business and strong cash generation, we think there’s a lot to like. continue…

Digital disrupters deliver superior returns for our Small Companies Fund
Roger Montgomery
August 18, 2020
Since launching in September 2019, The Montgomery Small Companies Fund has outperformed its benchmark the Small Ordinaries Index by 15.16 per cent to 31 July. The Fund’s strong run has been driven by accelerating megatrends in e-commerce, enterprise migration to the cloud and digitisation of the economy. Given the ongoing strength of these trends, I think there’s more solid growth ahead. continue…

AGL faces the perfect storm
Andreas Lundberg
August 17, 2020
In what’s been a terrible year for the energy sector, AGL is the latest company to disappoint. Its full-year results included a steep drop in profits and signalled that there’s worse to come next year. While AGL intends to maintain its attractive flow of dividends, I’m not convinced this will be enough to tempt many investors given the negative outlook. continue…

CBA pays a dividend, but is there trouble down the pike?
Stuart Jackson
August 17, 2020
Shareholders in Australia’s largest bank, the Commonwealth Bank of Australia, would have been relieved to read that the bank has delivered a decent full-year result – with a 98 cent dividend to boot. But the near term may not be so bright, with the bank pointing to earnings headwinds in the months ahead. Below is my summary of the key points from the full-year result. continue…

The great digital acceleration
David Buckland
August 13, 2020
Despite the incredibly strong market recovery since the COVID-19 lows recorded in late-March, price moves have been far from uniform. Areas that have been hardest hit from various shutdowns include resorts and cruise lines, airlines, energy stocks and financials. At the other extreme, companies deemed to be clear beneficiaries from the work from home theme have enjoyed excellent share price moves. continue…

Adairs and Kogan benefit from COVID-19-inspired themes
Roger Montgomery
August 11, 2020
In addition to the acceleration of e-commerce in Australia, COVID-19 has produced several themes that are generating retail winners; some are benefitting from the Do-Up-Your-Home-Because-You’ll-Be-Spending-More-Time-There theme, there are those benefitting from the boost to income from JobKeeper, JobSeeker and early Superannuation withdrawals, and there are those that will benefit from the additional A$45 billion spent locally that was previously spent on, or during, overseas holidays. And many retailers of course are benefitting from all three themes. continue…
