OPINION
ACTION

Opinions for stocks held in the International Equities Portfolio

03/09/2025 09:35

Alibaba (BABA US) $US138.55

Alibaba has been a tough hold for investors over recent years – MM included – with regulatory overhang, slowing Chinese growth, and intensifying competition all weighing on the stock. Last week’s 1Q earnings, however, provided a more constructive undertone, prompting a sharp rally in the shares.

27/08/2025 09:48

HCA Healthcare Inc (HCA US) $US401.96

We covered the private hospital operator a few months ago here, flagging the expansion in its earnings multiple as the primary driver of the share price, prompting us to turn more neutral. The stock fell on queue, and we were left holding our 5% position. They’ve now recovered strongly, so, what’s changed between May and now?

20/08/2025 09:34

First Solar (FSLR US) $US210.96

It’s been a wild ride holding First Solar shares in recent times, however, recent news flow has been supportive, pushing shares sharply higher over the week.

15/08/2025 08:29

JD.com (JD US) $US31.58

The China-based online marketplace reported its second-quarter results on Thursday, beating at the revenue line and showing solid growth, though margins remain a challenge—impacting overall earnings.

13/08/2025 09:25

The Trade Desk (TTD US) $US53.27

13/08/2025 09:23

Zillow (ZG US) $U80.17

ZG US reported its 2Q results on Thursday (7th August) that were mildly ahead of consensus expectations, and guidance was inline for 3Q revenue, and broadly in line in terms of earnings. The stock initially traded higher, before pulling back in the few sessions since.

12/08/2025 09:07

Albermarle Corp (ALB US) $US80.76

Overnight, US lithium giant ALB closed up +7% on the CATL news. This is not as exciting as yesterday's moves across Asia, suggesting today’s local session could be more muted.

08/08/2025 09:26

YETI Holdings (YETI US) $US32.66

The drinkware and cooler maker reported quarterly results that were a bit of a mixed bag. A miss at the sales line but less impact from tariffs helped earnings beat. Guidance was for a similar trend to continue:

08/08/2025 09:25

Trade Desk In (TTD US) $US88.33

Reported quarterly results after hours this morning, and the stock is trading down 27% - not good. While shares were up 60% from recent lows, the reaction to an ‘inline’ result seems very harsh and hard to reconcile (other than saying the stock had run hard).
