Uniti Group goes from hunter to hunted
David Buckland
March 16, 2022
Over the years, the team at Uniti Wireless (ASX:UWL) has proven incredibly adept at growing through acquisition – before becoming a take-over target – and handsomely rewarding investors along the way. They did it with M2 Group, and now they’re doing it again with Uniti. The recently announced $4.50 per share bid by Morrison & Co is a far cry from UWL’s 25 cent listing price in February 2019.

Roger Montgomery
March 7, 2022
In 2015, Professor Karen Dawisha – a renowned Russian scholar – published a book titled Putin’s Kleptocracy: Who Owns Russia?

War. What is it good for? Well, surprisingly, equities
Roger Montgomery
February 24, 2022
Edwin Starr’s classic 1969 anti-war song, War, asks: “War: What is it good for?” and responds emphatically “absolutely nothing.” It’s hard to argue with the sentiment. But it turns out Starr was not completely correct. You see, despite the terrifying carnage and destruction, war can often be a fruitful time to invest. Continue…

Dean Curnow
February 21, 2022
If you only look at the headline data published annually by RainmakerLive on changes in the advice industry, 2021 will read much the same as 2020.

However, if you look underneath this data you will see some interesting trends continuing at the licensee level which are outlined below. Continue…

Roger Montgomery
February 9, 2022
The current equity correction has taken a lot of the froth out of the market. But caught up in the carnage have been a number of high quality companies with years of growth ahead. Which is why I think this could be a very good time for investors to take a look at some of these businesses, including Pro Medicus, Megaport and REA Group. Continue…

Roger Montgomery spoke with Glenn Freeman at Livewire Markets to discuss what we like from REA Group’s half-year results. Here at Montgomery, we rank REA a high-quality company and the share price is certainly priced to reflect that strength.

A closer look at REA Group’s half year results
Roger Montgomery
February 7, 2022
At $135.00 on 27 January, REA Group’s (ASX:REA) share price had fallen almost a quarter from its high of $176.81 in November 2021. The move demonstrates even high-quality company shares can succumb to the vagaries of sentiment, especially when investors abandon long-term investing plans in favour of short-term fears about where share prices might land tomorrow or next week.

Which retailers have weathered the market storm?
Stuart Jackson
February 1, 2022
