Algo Update – China Large-Cap
We highlight the higher low structure in IZZ – iShares China Large-Cap ETF.
ETF Watch – Algo Buy Signal on Banks
Our Algo Engine triggered a buy signal in MVB, (Vaneck Vectors Australian Bank ETF), on 4th December at $27.14.
With the current momentum across equity markets, we consider the signal an opportunity to gain broad based exposure to the banking sector, with a stop loss below $26.50.
Algo Update – Buy Signal in IVC & ING
Both ING and IVC remain on our watch list following recent Algo Engine buy signals.
We recommend investors continue to monitor these names, as they are now approaching oversold levels.
US Stock Watch – General Electric (Deep Value)
In late November we highlighted GE as a counter trend buy.
We maintain that GE offers deep value for longer term investors and highlight the recent buying interest which is starting to build.
GE has now rallied over $1.00 or 7% from the November low.
GE shares sold off following the re-statement of accounts and recognition by investors of the cash flow issues, bloated expenses and under performing business units.
The new CEO, John Flannery, is now in place and announced a restructuring plan last month along with a 50% cut in dividend.
Like any large organisation, these changes take time to address and implement. However, 1 – 3 years out we’ll start to see a very different GE begin to emerge.
If you’d like to add GE to your portfolio or other international shares, please contact leon@investorsignals.com
ETF Watch – Algo Signal on AUD & USD ETF’s
Our Algo Engine generated a buy signal in the AUD Betashares Australian Dollar ETF on the 11th December at $14.75. Since then, the ETF has rallied 10% in line with the Australian dollar bouncing from .7510 to .7870.
On the flip side, we’ve seen the USD Betashare ETF make lower lows and lower highs.
We feel that the counter-trend which has played out during the past month will begin to normalise and we are likely to see a shift back towards USD strength.
Amcor – Generating 10 – 12% cashflow
We recommend investors look at Amcor with a view towards a buy-write strategy.
Owning the stock at $15.50 and selling slightly out-of-the-money calls into June 2018 generates 10 – 12% cash-flow, when combined with the February dividend of $0.25.
FY18 underlying EPS growth should be in the 5 – 7% range, placing AMC on a 4.3% forward yield.
Amcor
Algo Update – AGL Targets $26.00
Our ALGO Engine triggered a recent buy signal in AGL at $23.38.
With the stock now making a further “higher low” formation at $24.50, we highlight the current price as a reasonable entry level.
AGL is likely to upgrade their dividend payout in 2018 & 2019 which will see the stock re-rate and trade into the $26.00 range.
AGL is a suitable buy-write for income portfolios and is a current holding in our ASX 50 model.
AGL
Algo Update – Inghams
Our Algo Engine has alerted us to the higher low formation in ING. Looking at recent technical levels, it’s likely the stock price will find buying support within the $3.30 – $3.45 range.
AMP Continues to Grind Higher
AMP continues to trade higher as the price action builds on the “higher high & higher low” formation.
AMP was added into the ASX50 model in June at $5.00. Our upside target for the stock is $5.40 – $5.50.
