Roy Philipose Stocks

Live Blog August 21, 2020 Current Price: $11,600  Bitcoin has increased in price lately. I feel more people are moving toward the asset and feel comfortable owning it. Governments feel less threatened by the commodity and should continue to allow full ownership. I think really that is the key point - government doesn't want financial competition...so Bitcoin has a better chance of survival. Gold has come up in price too. The central banks of the world are engaged in massive money printing and stimulus in order to keep things afloat. This only makes the case for Bitcoin stronger. I see both Gold and Bitcoin in a coexisting relationship, with Bitcoin becoming the new Gold. Gold is not going anywhere and the price is not going to zero. Gold will still cary value, but Bitcoin has the advantage. The price of Gold doesn't have to come down in order for the price of Bitcoin to go up.  My outlook for Bitcoin hasn't changed. There is no reason Bitcoin can't be $100,000 or more i

The stocks I like going forward are Tesla, Roku, and Beyond Meat. These growth companies are leaders in the field and continue to innovate. Understanding Buy, Sell, and Hold Ratings... 1) Buy Recommendation: $82 11/6/2019 - Beyond Meat ( BYND ) is a plant-based manufacturer of meat products. They offer an alternative to traditional animal-based meats, while maintaining the look and taste. Beyond Meat is in a great position to capitalize on the shift from animal-based meat to plant-based meat products. There is  growing trend to go healthy and to focus on the environment. They have set up partnerships with fast food chains and are in supermarkets. Recently, the stock came down and I see that as a buying opportunity. 1a) 3-17-2020 Beyond Meat: Outperform (Moderate Buy) Current Price: $62 Target Price 12M: $80 Reason: Valuation 1b) 3-18-2020 Beyond Meat: Underperform (Moderate Sell) Current Price: $60 Target Price 12M: $60 Reason: Market Conditions 1c) 3-19-2020 Beyond M

By Roy Philipose Here is an updated list of 10 stocks that are part of the "A/X Portfolio." This portfolio should return at least 15% per year. The majority of these companies are led by their founder and have strong growth potential. Changes to A/X: I have replaced Under Armour (sports apparel) for Square (retail payments). There are more good stocks out there, but I don't have the time to research them all. I plan to add myself to TipRanks (stock pick ratings). My overall track record for picking stocks speaks for itself. 2017 S&P 500 + 18.74% 2017 A/X Portfolio + 156.38% For 2017, the big winner was Bitcoin and the big loser was Under Armour.

The majority of these companies are led by their founder and have strong growth potential. I have removed companies that did not display strong fundamentals.

by Roy "Dr. P" Philipose Over the years I have developed an "investment model" which has done well. I continue to learn and get better with the model over time. I use a "10 step method" in evaluating companies. A book I recommend adding to your library, if you haven't already, is Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits by Philip Fisher. It is an easy-to-read book, similar to books written by Peter Lynch. "10 Step Method" -- Stock Picking, Major Factors 1, Good Management (Ceo) 2, Growing Revenue 3, Cashflow Generation 4, Competitive Edge (Leader) 5, Little or No Debt 6, Inside Ownership (Founder) 7, Safety of Margin (20%) 8, Favorable Risk/Reward  9, Fundamental Catalyst 10, Popular Factor (Need) -------------- A/X Portfolio Here is an open list of 10-20 stocks that are part of the "A/X" portfolio. You can see the many "major factors" present in the companies listed. Overall, most of the stock p

I attended the SolarCity 2014 Annual Meeting on June 4, 2014. The CEO, Lyndon Rive, gave a presentation about the company and how the company is experiencing strong growth. He also stated the market share for the company was small compared to the opportunity. I asked the CEO 2 questions: 1) About Shareholder Lawsuits. An attorney came up and said, "There was one actual lawsuit against the company. Even though it looked like there were many, but only one. And they would be fighting the lawsuit vigorously, as the lawsuit has no merit." 2) About Shareholder Buyback. The CEO stated that, "They have no intention of a buyback. That basically the company is experiencing such strong growth, that they would get better returns on growing the company." At first I didn't understand that. I mentioned how the stock price is down. But the CEO, Mr. Rive stated, "We are better off using capital to grow the business because of our high growth rates." Late
