But with hordes of buyers plunking capital onmeme stocks and cryptocurrencies,quality shareholders (aka buy-and-hold stock pickers) continue to see opportunities for the long term.Take Boyar Value Group. Since 1975, it has provided insightful research on a range of businesses. The father and son team of Mark and Jonathan Boyar also eat their own cooking, being quality shareholders (QSs) themselves as operators of the Boyar Value FundBOYAX,+0.48%.The Boyars have been prescient: shortly after the coronavirus pandemic hit and took down the U.S. stock market, they released a special report detailing 19 companies whose shares they recommended amid the selloff.  One year later, a portfolio of those stocks was up 78%, besting the S&P 500SPX,+0.19%by 27 percentage points.Boyar Value Group produces the “Forgotten Forty,” a year-end report on 40 stocks they view as overlooked.  Barron’s highlighted seven of the picks earlier this year — a diverse mix that included Bank of AmericaBAC,+0.07%,Liberty Braves GroupBATRA,+1.26%,and SyscoSYY,-0.52%.This year’s Forgotten Forty has gained 17% since late December versus 12% for the S&P 500.Boyar’s Forgotten Forty is an excellent filter for stock pickers as they narrow their hunt. One way to tailor picks is to cross-check these 40 companies with those of companies that score high for attracting QSs.Many investors mimic the portfolio of uber-QS Warren Buffett of Berkshire HathawayBRK.A,+0.12%BRK.B,+0.05%,for instance. Other QSs can be identified using such resources as Martijn Cremmers’ active share rankings, proprietary data analytics of EQX, or research of my ownQuality Shareholders Initiative (QSI) — all useful tools to construct a high-performing portfolio.Combining the Forgotten Forty with such data, below are three stock ideas to consider as part of a larger portfolio. (Of course, this is not investing advice or a recommendation to buy — just a few suggestions to consider.)UniFirst CorporationUniFirst Corp.UNF,+2.13%,founded by the Croatti family in a Boston barn in 1936, is a uniform rental company currently employing more than 14,000 in 260 facilities in North America and Europe and generating nearly $2 billion in annual revenue. It is number three in an oligopolistic industry — along with AramarkARMK,+0.27%and CintasCTAS,-0.37%,the trio commands 70% of the market — which enables rational industry pricing.UniFirst’s core laundry business runs on multiyear contracts, creating recurring revenue. Customer retention rates are high and employee tenures are long, and the company carries no debt.  Along with a strong cash position, the U.S. economic reopening ahead bodes well, particularly with UniFirst’s large customer base in the energy sector. Boyar’s valuation: $263 per share, well-above recent levels.Members of the Croatti family are major shareholders, with 20% of the economic interest and 71% of the voting power, under a dual-class capital structure. Despite how some governance gurus roundly condemn dual class structures, QSI data indicates that QSs examine the practice on a case-by-case basis.UniFirst is a magnet for QSs, increasingly so in recent years as the company has enhanced its capital allocation rationality through share buybacks and dividends. In terms of concentration levels and holding periods, the company’s shareholders treat it far better than they treat their other investees, EQX data indicates.  A sampling of UniFirst’s QSs: Aurora Investment Counsel, Copeland Capital Management, Hunter Perkins Capital Management, London Company of Virginia and River Road Asset Management.Comcast CorporationComcastCMCSA,+2.06%,a cable industry pioneer founded by Ralph Roberts in 1963, is a global communications powerhouse with diverse investments in related sectors, especially in technology. The business, with annual revenues exceeding $100 billion, proved resilient during the pandemic, with durable strengths in both broadband and streaming, and an expected bounce from reopening of its theme parks.Communications businesses such as Comcast’s combine highly valuable intangible assets with little need for reinvestment in tangible assets—particularly appealing during inflationary periods. Boyar’s valuation: $76 per share, comfortably above market.Comcast is another magnet for QSs, and another dual class company, in which Brian Roberts holds 1% of the economic interest along with 34% of the voting power. Among QSs owning Comcast shares: Eagle Capital, First Pacific Advisors, Rothschild & Co. and Southeastern Asset Management. Note also: Nelson Peltz’s Trian Fund accumulated a large stake, about 0.4%, in several transactions during 2020.Bank of New York MellonBank of New York MellonBK,+0.86%is the world’s largest custodian bank and asset servicing company, with $2 trillion in assets under management and close to $40 trillion in assets under custody. The company is a blend of two storied institutions: Bank of New York has roots back to Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr in 1784, while Mellon traces to the bank Andrew Mellon began in 1869.Today, with annual revenues reaching $16 billion, the firm is distinguished for achieving outsized cost savings from a high-tech digitized platform. It is using artificial intelligence and machine learning to automate many functions, from financial calculations to client inquiries. BNY Mellon’s scale in the custodian business positions it well to win the trillion-dollar accounts of the world’s largest asset managers.Boyar’s valuation for BNY Mellon is a conservative $50 per share, suggesting there’s still some upside. BNY Mellon enjoys one of the highest-quality shareholder bases in the US, according to EQX and QSI research. Prominent QSs include: Berkshire Hathaway, Davis Selected Advisers, Dodge & Cox, Lountzis Asset Management and Tweedy Browne.Three picks do not a portfolio make, of course. So consider these other interesting ideas from the Boyar Forgotten Forty that also boast high-quality shareholder followings: Walt DisneyDIS,+0.17%,IAC/InterActiveCorp.IAC,+3.19%and MerckMRK,-0.35%.In a volatile market like now, all of these companies offer a substantial measure of stability.  For veteran investors and newcomers alike, keep in mind that it is foolish to follow the herd, and wise to heed the thoughtful.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":135655598,"gmtCreate":1622162694214,"gmtModify":1704180569292,"author":{"id":"3581848609787274","authorId":"3581848609787274","name":"IZLIN","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f2241963762942310c858a3aae49c0d1","vip":1,"hat":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b073a07f77dbe6b3bec6b12311fde6bd","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3581848609787274","authorIdStr":"3581848609787274"},"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/U/3581561113691319\">@Meow17</a><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/U/3582026494482473\">@Sagi08</a><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/U/3582502706085184\">@simplydkam</a>to consider!","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/U/3581561113691319\">@Meow17</a><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/U/3582026494482473\">@Sagi08</a><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/U/3582502706085184\">@simplydkam</a>to consider!","text":"@Meow17@Sagi08@simplydkamto consider!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":6,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/135655598","repostId":1193634953,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1193634953","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1622087134,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1193634953?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-27 11:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Opinion: These cool, high-quality stocks are just right for this overheated, overvalued market","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1193634953","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"Well-managed companies boast strong cash flow, a stable shareholder base, and are under most investo","content":"<blockquote><b>Well-managed companies boast strong cash flow, a stable shareholder base, and are under most investors’ radar.</b></blockquote><p>Overheated markets make it increasingly difficult to identify attractively priced investments.

But with hordes of buyers plunking capital onmeme stocks and cryptocurrencies,quality shareholders (aka buy-and-hold stock pickers) continue to see opportunities for the long term.Take Boyar Value Group. Since 1975, it has provided insightful research on a range of businesses. The father and son team of Mark and Jonathan Boyar also eat their own cooking, being quality shareholders (QSs) themselves as operators of the Boyar Value FundBOYAX,+0.48%.The Boyars have been prescient: shortly after the coronavirus pandemic hit and took down the U.S. stock market, they released a special report detailing 19 companies whose shares they recommended amid the selloff.  One year later, a portfolio of those stocks was up 78%, besting the S&P 500SPX,+0.19%by 27 percentage points.Boyar Value Group produces the “Forgotten Forty,” a year-end report on 40 stocks they view as overlooked.  Barron’s highlighted seven of the picks earlier this year — a diverse mix that included Bank of AmericaBAC,+0.07%,Liberty Braves GroupBATRA,+1.26%,and SyscoSYY,-0.52%.This year’s Forgotten Forty has gained 17% since late December versus 12% for the S&P 500.Boyar’s Forgotten Forty is an excellent filter for stock pickers as they narrow their hunt. One way to tailor picks is to cross-check these 40 companies with those of companies that score high for attracting QSs.Many investors mimic the portfolio of uber-QS Warren Buffett of Berkshire HathawayBRK.A,+0.12%BRK.B,+0.05%,for instance. Other QSs can be identified using such resources as Martijn Cremmers’ active share rankings, proprietary data analytics of EQX, or research of my ownQuality Shareholders Initiative (QSI) — all useful tools to construct a high-performing portfolio.Combining the Forgotten Forty with such data, below are three stock ideas to consider as part of a larger portfolio. (Of course, this is not investing advice or a recommendation to buy — just a few suggestions to consider.)UniFirst CorporationUniFirst Corp.UNF,+2.13%,founded by the Croatti family in a Boston barn in 1936, is a uniform rental company currently employing more than 14,000 in 260 facilities in North America and Europe and generating nearly $2 billion in annual revenue. It is number three in an oligopolistic industry — along with AramarkARMK,+0.27%and CintasCTAS,-0.37%,the trio commands 70% of the market — which enables rational industry pricing.UniFirst’s core laundry business runs on multiyear contracts, creating recurring revenue. Customer retention rates are high and employee tenures are long, and the company carries no debt.  Along with a strong cash position, the U.S. economic reopening ahead bodes well, particularly with UniFirst’s large customer base in the energy sector. Boyar’s valuation: $263 per share, well-above recent levels.Members of the Croatti family are major shareholders, with 20% of the economic interest and 71% of the voting power, under a dual-class capital structure. Despite how some governance gurus roundly condemn dual class structures, QSI data indicates that QSs examine the practice on a case-by-case basis.UniFirst is a magnet for QSs, increasingly so in recent years as the company has enhanced its capital allocation rationality through share buybacks and dividends. In terms of concentration levels and holding periods, the company’s shareholders treat it far better than they treat their other investees, EQX data indicates.  A sampling of UniFirst’s QSs: Aurora Investment Counsel, Copeland Capital Management, Hunter Perkins Capital Management, London Company of Virginia and River Road Asset Management.Comcast CorporationComcastCMCSA,+2.06%,a cable industry pioneer founded by Ralph Roberts in 1963, is a global communications powerhouse with diverse investments in related sectors, especially in technology. The business, with annual revenues exceeding $100 billion, proved resilient during the pandemic, with durable strengths in both broadband and streaming, and an expected bounce from reopening of its theme parks.Communications businesses such as Comcast’s combine highly valuable intangible assets with little need for reinvestment in tangible assets—particularly appealing during inflationary periods. Boyar’s valuation: $76 per share, comfortably above market.Comcast is another magnet for QSs, and another dual class company, in which Brian Roberts holds 1% of the economic interest along with 34% of the voting power. Among QSs owning Comcast shares: Eagle Capital, First Pacific Advisors, Rothschild & Co. and Southeastern Asset Management. Note also: Nelson Peltz’s Trian Fund accumulated a large stake, about 0.4%, in several transactions during 2020.Bank of New York MellonBank of New York MellonBK,+0.86%is the world’s largest custodian bank and asset servicing company, with $2 trillion in assets under management and close to $40 trillion in assets under custody. The company is a blend of two storied institutions: Bank of New York has roots back to Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr in 1784, while Mellon traces to the bank Andrew Mellon began in 1869.Today, with annual revenues reaching $16 billion, the firm is distinguished for achieving outsized cost savings from a high-tech digitized platform. It is using artificial intelligence and machine learning to automate many functions, from financial calculations to client inquiries. BNY Mellon’s scale in the custodian business positions it well to win the trillion-dollar accounts of the world’s largest asset managers.Boyar’s valuation for BNY Mellon is a conservative $50 per share, suggesting there’s still some upside. BNY Mellon enjoys one of the highest-quality shareholder bases in the US, according to EQX and QSI research. Prominent QSs include: Berkshire Hathaway, Davis Selected Advisers, Dodge & Cox, Lountzis Asset Management and Tweedy Browne.Three picks do not a portfolio make, of course. So consider these other interesting ideas from the Boyar Forgotten Forty that also boast high-quality shareholder followings: Walt DisneyDIS,+0.17%,IAC/InterActiveCorp.IAC,+3.19%and MerckMRK,-0.35%.In a volatile market like now, all of these companies offer a substantial measure of stability.  For veteran investors and newcomers alike, keep in mind that it is foolish to follow the herd, and wise to heed the thoughtful.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":4503038,"gmtCreate":1622343281577,"gmtModify":1680791919781,"authorId":3582502706085184,"author":{"id":3582502706085184,"idStr":"3582502706085184","authorId":3582502706085184,"name":"simplydkam","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/423a9da6a6bb28eab1c126fbf48fbd24","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":3581848609787274,"repliedAuthor":{"id":3581848609787274,"idStr":"3581848609787274","authorId":3581848609787274,"name":"IZLIN","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f2241963762942310c858a3aae49c0d1","vip":1,"currentWearingBadge":{"badgeId":"a83d7582f45846ffbccbce770ce65d84-1","templateUuid":"a83d7582f45846ffbccbce770ce65d84","name":"Real

The father and son team of Mark and Jonathan Boyar also eat their own cooking, being quality shareholders (QSs) themselves as operators of the Boyar Value FundBOYAX,+0.48%.The Boyars have been prescient: shortly after the coronavirus pandemic hit and took down the U.S. stock market, they released a special report detailing 19 companies whose shares they recommended amid the selloff.  One year later, a portfolio of those stocks was up 78%, besting the S&P 500SPX,+0.19%by 27 percentage points.Boyar Value Group produces the “Forgotten Forty,” a year-end report on 40 stocks they view as overlooked.  Barron’s highlighted seven of the picks earlier this year — a diverse mix that included Bank of AmericaBAC,+0.07%,Liberty Braves GroupBATRA,+1.26%,and SyscoSYY,-0.52%.This year’s Forgotten Forty has gained 17% since late December versus 12% for the S&P 500.Boyar’s Forgotten Forty is an excellent filter for stock pickers as they narrow their hunt. One way to tailor picks is to cross-check these 40 companies with those of companies that score high for attracting QSs.Many investors mimic the portfolio of uber-QS Warren Buffett of Berkshire HathawayBRK.A,+0.12%BRK.B,+0.05%,for instance. Other QSs can be identified using such resources as Martijn Cremmers’ active share rankings, proprietary data analytics of EQX, or research of my ownQuality Shareholders Initiative (QSI) — all useful tools to construct a high-performing portfolio.Combining the Forgotten Forty with such data, below are three stock ideas to consider as part of a larger portfolio. (Of course, this is not investing advice or a recommendation to buy — just a few suggestions to consider.)UniFirst CorporationUniFirst Corp.UNF,+2.13%,founded by the Croatti family in a Boston barn in 1936, is a uniform rental company currently employing more than 14,000 in 260 facilities in North America and Europe and generating nearly $2 billion in annual revenue. It is number three in an oligopolistic industry — along with AramarkARMK,+0.27%and CintasCTAS,-0.37%,the trio commands 70% of the market — which enables rational industry pricing.UniFirst’s core laundry business runs on multiyear contracts, creating recurring revenue. Customer retention rates are high and employee tenures are long, and the company carries no debt.  Along with a strong cash position, the U.S. economic reopening ahead bodes well, particularly with UniFirst’s large customer base in the energy sector. Boyar’s valuation: $263 per share, well-above recent levels.Members of the Croatti family are major shareholders, with 20% of the economic interest and 71% of the voting power, under a dual-class capital structure. Despite how some governance gurus roundly condemn dual class structures, QSI data indicates that QSs examine the practice on a case-by-case basis.UniFirst is a magnet for QSs, increasingly so in recent years as the company has enhanced its capital allocation rationality through share buybacks and dividends. In terms of concentration levels and holding periods, the company’s shareholders treat it far better than they treat their other investees, EQX data indicates.  A sampling of UniFirst’s QSs: Aurora Investment Counsel, Copeland Capital Management, Hunter Perkins Capital Management, London Company of Virginia and River Road Asset Management.Comcast CorporationComcastCMCSA,+2.06%,a cable industry pioneer founded by Ralph Roberts in 1963, is a global communications powerhouse with diverse investments in related sectors, especially in technology. The business, with annual revenues exceeding $100 billion, proved resilient during the pandemic, with durable strengths in both broadband and streaming, and an expected bounce from reopening of its theme parks.Communications businesses such as Comcast’s combine highly valuable intangible assets with little need for reinvestment in tangible assets—particularly appealing during inflationary periods. Boyar’s valuation: $76 per share, comfortably above market.Comcast is another magnet for QSs, and another dual class company, in which Brian Roberts holds 1% of the economic interest along with 34% of the voting power. Among QSs owning Comcast shares: Eagle Capital, First Pacific Advisors, Rothschild & Co. and Southeastern Asset Management. Note also: Nelson Peltz’s Trian Fund accumulated a large stake, about 0.4%, in several transactions during 2020.Bank of New York MellonBank of New York MellonBK,+0.86%is the world’s largest custodian bank and asset servicing company, with $2 trillion in assets under management and close to $40 trillion in assets under custody. The company is a blend of two storied institutions: Bank of New York has roots back to Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr in 1784, while Mellon traces to the bank Andrew Mellon began in 1869.Today, with annual revenues reaching $16 billion, the firm is distinguished for achieving outsized cost savings from a high-tech digitized platform. It is using artificial intelligence and machine learning to automate many functions, from financial calculations to client inquiries. BNY Mellon’s scale in the custodian business positions it well to win the trillion-dollar accounts of the world’s largest asset managers.Boyar’s valuation for BNY Mellon is a conservative $50 per share, suggesting there’s still some upside. BNY Mellon enjoys one of the highest-quality shareholder bases in the US, according to EQX and QSI research. Prominent QSs include: Berkshire Hathaway, Davis Selected Advisers, Dodge & Cox, Lountzis Asset Management and Tweedy Browne.Three picks do not a portfolio make, of course. So consider these other interesting ideas from the Boyar Forgotten Forty that also boast high-quality shareholder followings: Walt DisneyDIS,+0.17%,IAC/InterActiveCorp.IAC,+3.19%and MerckMRK,-0.35%.In a volatile market like now, all of these companies offer a substantial measure of stability.  For veteran investors and newcomers alike, keep in mind that it is foolish to follow the herd, and wise to heed the thoughtful.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":135011412,"gmtCreate":1622122150836,"gmtModify":1704179844683,"author":{"id":"3575141057639271","authorId":"3575141057639271","name":"Daveb","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/61df162e1597f1b5a6a6bfb13d7d92f5","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3575141057639271","authorIdStr":"3575141057639271"},"htmlText":"Please dont fall for all this stuff.

Customer retention rates are high and employee tenures are long, and the company carries no debt.  Along with a strong cash position, the U.S. economic reopening ahead bodes well, particularly with UniFirst’s large customer base in the energy sector.

In terms of concentration levels and holding periods, the company’s shareholders treat it far better than they treat their other investees, EQX data indicates.  A sampling of UniFirst’s QSs: Aurora Investment Counsel, Copeland Capital Management, Hunter Perkins Capital Management, London Company of Virginia and River Road Asset Management.Comcast CorporationComcastCMCSA,+2.06%,a cable industry pioneer founded by Ralph Roberts in 1963, is a global communications powerhouse with diverse investments in related sectors, especially in technology.

Boyar’s valuation: $76 per share, comfortably above market.Comcast is another magnet for QSs, and another dual class company, in which Brian Roberts holds 1% of the economic interest along with 34% of the voting power.

(Of course, this is not investing advice or a recommendation to buy — just a few suggestions to consider.)</p><p><b>UniFirst Corporation</b></p><p>UniFirst Corp.UNF,+2.13%,founded by the Croatti family in a Boston barn in 1936, is a uniform rental company currently employing more than 14,000 in 260 facilities in North America and Europe and generating nearly $2 billion in annual revenue. It is number three in an oligopolistic industry — along with AramarkARMK,+0.27%and CintasCTAS,-0.37%,the trio commands 70% of the market — which enables rational industry pricing.</p><p>UniFirst’s core laundry business runs on multiyear contracts, creating recurring revenue. Customer retention rates are high and employee tenures are long, and the company carries no debt.&nbsp; Along with a strong cash position, the U.S. economic reopening ahead bodes well, particularly with UniFirst’s large customer base in the energy sector. Boyar’s valuation: $263 per share, well-above recent levels.</p><p>Members of the Croatti family are major shareholders, with 20% of the economic interest and 71% of the voting power, under a dual-class capital structure.&nbsp;Despite how some governance gurus roundly condemn dual class structures, QSI data indicates that&nbsp;QSs examine the practice&nbsp;on a case-by-case basis.</p><p>UniFirst is a magnet for QSs, increasingly so in recent years as the company has enhanced its capital allocation rationality through share buybacks and dividends. In terms of concentration levels and holding periods, the company’s shareholders treat it far better than they treat their other investees, EQX data indicates.&nbsp; A sampling of UniFirst’s QSs: Aurora Investment Counsel, Copeland Capital Management, Hunter Perkins Capital Management, London Company of Virginia and River Road Asset Management.</p><p><b>Comcast Corporation</b></p><p>ComcastCMCSA,+2.06%,a cable industry pioneer founded by Ralph Roberts in 1963, is a global communications powerhouse with diverse investments in related sectors, especially in technology. The business, with annual revenues exceeding $100 billion, proved resilient during the pandemic, with durable strengths in both broadband and streaming, and an expected bounce from reopening of its theme parks.</p><p>Communications businesses such as Comcast’s combine highly valuable intangible assets with little need for reinvestment in tangible assets—particularly appealing during inflationary periods. Boyar’s valuation: $76 per share, comfortably above market.</p><p>Comcast is another magnet for QSs, and another dual class company, in which Brian Roberts holds 1% of the economic interest along with 34% of the voting power. Among QSs owning Comcast shares: Eagle Capital, First Pacific Advisors, Rothschild &amp; Co. and Southeastern Asset Management. Note also: Nelson Peltz’s Trian Fund accumulated a large stake, about 0.4%, in several transactions during 2020.</p><p><b>Bank of New York Mellon</b></p><p>Bank of New York MellonBK,+0.86%is the world’s largest custodian bank and asset servicing company, with $2 trillion in assets under management and close to $40 trillion in assets under custody. The company is a blend of two storied institutions: Bank of New York has roots back to Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr in 1784, while Mellon traces to the bank Andrew Mellon began in 1869.</p><p>Today, with annual revenues reaching $16 billion, the firm is distinguished for achieving outsized cost savings from a high-tech digitized platform. It is using artificial intelligence and machine learning to automate many functions, from financial calculations to client inquiries. BNY Mellon’s scale in the custodian business positions it well to win the trillion-dollar accounts of the world’s largest asset managers.</p><p>Boyar’s valuation for BNY Mellon is a conservative $50 per share, suggesting there’s still some upside. BNY Mellon enjoys one of the highest-quality shareholder bases in the US, according to EQX and QSI research. Prominent QSs include: Berkshire Hathaway, Davis Selected Advisers, Dodge &amp; Cox, Lountzis Asset Management and Tweedy Browne.</p><p>Three picks do not a portfolio make, of course. So consider these other interesting ideas from the Boyar&nbsp;Forgotten Forty&nbsp;that also boast high-quality shareholder followings: Walt DisneyDIS,+0.17%,IAC/InterActiveCorp.IAC,+3.19%and MerckMRK,-0.35%.</p><p>In a volatile market like now, all of these companies offer a substantial measure of stability.&nbsp; For veteran investors and newcomers alike, keep in mind that it is foolish to follow the herd, and wise to heed the thoughtful.</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Opinion: These cool, high-quality stocks are just right for this overheated, overvalued market</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nOpinion: These cool, high-quality stocks are just right for this overheated, overvalued market\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-05-27 11:45 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/these-cool-high-quality-stocks-are-just-right-for-this-overheated-overvalued-market-11621994657><strong>MarketWatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Well-managed companies boast strong cash flow, a stable shareholder base, and are under most investors’ radar.Overheated markets make it increasingly difficult to identify attractively priced ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/these-cool-high-quality-stocks-are-just-right-for-this-overheated-overvalued-market-11621994657\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"SPY":"标普500ETF",".DJI":"道琼斯",".IXIC":"NASDAQ Composite",".SPX":"S&P 500 Index"},"source_url":"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/these-cool-high-quality-stocks-are-just-right-for-this-overheated-overvalued-market-11621994657","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1193634953","content_text":"Well-managed companies boast strong cash flow, a stable shareholder base, and are under most investors’ radar.Overheated markets make it increasingly difficult to identify attractively priced investments.

But with hordes of buyers plunking capital onmeme stocks and cryptocurrencies,quality shareholders (aka buy-and-hold stock pickers) continue to see opportunities for the long term.Take Boyar Value Group. Since 1975, it has provided insightful research on a range of businesses. The father and son team of Mark and Jonathan Boyar also eat their own cooking, being quality shareholders (QSs) themselves as operators of the Boyar Value FundBOYAX,+0.48%.The Boyars have been prescient: shortly after the coronavirus pandemic hit and took down the U.S. stock market, they released a special report detailing 19 companies whose shares they recommended amid the selloff.  One year later, a portfolio of those stocks was up 78%, besting the S&P 500SPX,+0.19%by 27 percentage points.Boyar Value Group produces the “Forgotten Forty,” a year-end report on 40 stocks they view as overlooked.  Barron’s highlighted seven of the picks earlier this year — a diverse mix that included Bank of AmericaBAC,+0.07%,Liberty Braves GroupBATRA,+1.26%,and SyscoSYY,-0.52%.This year’s Forgotten Forty has gained 17% since late December versus 12% for the S&P 500.Boyar’s Forgotten Forty is an excellent filter for stock pickers as they narrow their hunt. One way to tailor picks is to cross-check these 40 companies with those of companies that score high for attracting QSs.Many investors mimic the portfolio of uber-QS Warren Buffett of Berkshire HathawayBRK.A,+0.12%BRK.B,+0.05%,for instance. Other QSs can be identified using such resources as Martijn Cremmers’ active share rankings, proprietary data analytics of EQX, or research of my ownQuality Shareholders Initiative (QSI) — all useful tools to construct a high-performing portfolio.Combining the Forgotten Forty with such data, below are three stock ideas to consider as part of a larger portfolio. (Of course, this is not investing advice or a recommendation to buy — just a few suggestions to consider.)UniFirst CorporationUniFirst Corp.UNF,+2.13%,founded by the Croatti family in a Boston barn in 1936, is a uniform rental company currently employing more than 14,000 in 260 facilities in North America and Europe and generating nearly $2 billion in annual revenue. It is number three in an oligopolistic industry — along with AramarkARMK,+0.27%and CintasCTAS,-0.37%,the trio commands 70% of the market — which enables rational industry pricing.UniFirst’s core laundry business runs on multiyear contracts, creating recurring revenue. Customer retention rates are high and employee tenures are long, and the company carries no debt.  Along with a strong cash position, the U.S. economic reopening ahead bodes well, particularly with UniFirst’s large customer base in the energy sector. Boyar’s valuation: $263 per share, well-above recent levels.Members of the Croatti family are major shareholders, with 20% of the economic interest and 71% of the voting power, under a dual-class capital structure. Despite how some governance gurus roundly condemn dual class structures, QSI data indicates that QSs examine the practice on a case-by-case basis.UniFirst is a magnet for QSs, increasingly so in recent years as the company has enhanced its capital allocation rationality through share buybacks and dividends. In terms of concentration levels and holding periods, the company’s shareholders treat it far better than they treat their other investees, EQX data indicates.  A sampling of UniFirst’s QSs: Aurora Investment Counsel, Copeland Capital Management, Hunter Perkins Capital Management, London Company of Virginia and River Road Asset Management.Comcast CorporationComcastCMCSA,+2.06%,a cable industry pioneer founded by Ralph Roberts in 1963, is a global communications powerhouse with diverse investments in related sectors, especially in technology. The business, with annual revenues exceeding $100 billion, proved resilient during the pandemic, with durable strengths in both broadband and streaming, and an expected bounce from reopening of its theme parks.Communications businesses such as Comcast’s combine highly valuable intangible assets with little need for reinvestment in tangible assets—particularly appealing during inflationary periods. Boyar’s valuation: $76 per share, comfortably above market.Comcast is another magnet for QSs, and another dual class company, in which Brian Roberts holds 1% of the economic interest along with 34% of the voting power. Among QSs owning Comcast shares: Eagle Capital, First Pacific Advisors, Rothschild & Co. and Southeastern Asset Management. Note also: Nelson Peltz’s Trian Fund accumulated a large stake, about 0.4%, in several transactions during 2020.Bank of New York MellonBank of New York MellonBK,+0.86%is the world’s largest custodian bank and asset servicing company, with $2 trillion in assets under management and close to $40 trillion in assets under custody. The company is a blend of two storied institutions: Bank of New York has roots back to Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr in 1784, while Mellon traces to the bank Andrew Mellon began in 1869.Today, with annual revenues reaching $16 billion, the firm is distinguished for achieving outsized cost savings from a high-tech digitized platform. It is using artificial intelligence and machine learning to automate many functions, from financial calculations to client inquiries. BNY Mellon’s scale in the custodian business positions it well to win the trillion-dollar accounts of the world’s largest asset managers.Boyar’s valuation for BNY Mellon is a conservative $50 per share, suggesting there’s still some upside. BNY Mellon enjoys one of the highest-quality shareholder bases in the US, according to EQX and QSI research. Prominent QSs include: Berkshire Hathaway, Davis Selected Advisers, Dodge & Cox, Lountzis Asset Management and Tweedy Browne.Three picks do not a portfolio make, of course. So consider these other interesting ideas from the Boyar Forgotten Forty that also boast high-quality shareholder followings: Walt DisneyDIS,+0.17%,IAC/InterActiveCorp.IAC,+3.19%and MerckMRK,-0.35%.In a volatile market like now, all of these companies offer a substantial measure of stability.  For veteran investors and newcomers alike, keep in mind that it is foolish to follow the herd, and wise to heed the thoughtful.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":4470760,"gmtCreate":1622116980589,"gmtModify":1680791334631,"authorId":3572242831702290,"author":{"id":3572242831702290,"idStr":"3572242831702290","authorId":3572242831702290,"name":"WenJieChan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/53ef4172b753c018b9380f43f496ab73","vip":1,"crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":132736600,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"[微笑]","text":"[微笑]","html":"[微笑]"}],"langContent":"EN"}],"isCommentEnd":false,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":185,"commentSize":39,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.29.3","shortVersion":"4.29.3","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/1193634953"}
