Roger Montgomery
August 5, 2020
Much has been made of the exorbitant share prices of the world’s largest technology companies – Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Microsoft and Google. But, given the quality of their businesses, their market dominance and continuing growth prospects, are they really too expensive? continue…

Why it’s time to focus on quality businesses
Roger Montgomery
August 3, 2020
In 1976, US economist, Herbert Stein, famously stated that “If something cannot go on forever, it will stop.” His observation could well be applied to the ballooning value of many technology companies, some of which have never made a profit, and possibly never will. Which is why this might be a good time to look at high quality businesses that have been left behind by the rally. continue…

Roger Montgomery
July 28, 2020
With reporting season kicking off in Australia, we expect the disparity between earnings expectations and results to be the widest in memory. As an example, pump and filter manufacturing company GUD Holdings Limited has stated the demand environment is simply too dynamic to be able to provide guidance. continue…

Why it pays to invest in structural growth businesses
David Buckland
July 23, 2020
Structural growth companies – like Appen (ASX:APX) and Nanosonics (ASX:NAN) – are generally involved in cloud-based technology, data centres, digital payments, e-commerce and medical technology. Importantly, they can grow regardless of the COVID-19 crisis and the broader economic cycle. Which is the reason we hold an overweight position in our small companies portfolio. continue…

Nanosonics has a long runway for growth
Dominic Rose
July 21, 2020
It’s a testing time for investors, with so many hitherto great businesses on their knees, and others looking well over-priced. But it’s still possible to identify structural winners with a long growth runway at reasonable prices. I think one of these could be Sydney-based medical device innovator, Nanosonics (ASX:NAN). continue…
