Opinions for stocks held in the International Equities Portfolio
Yeti Holdings (YETI US) $US37.81
The outdoor product company, founded in 2006 and went public in October 2018, has three segments: Coolers & Equipment, Drinkware, and other, comprised of Outerwear & Gear. Everyone seems to love their products, and we certainly do, yet the stock is down ~20% since they reported Q4 earnings towards the end of February. Read moreAlbemarle (ALB US) $US109.40
We bought ALB in the International Equities Portfolio 3 weeks ago at $US115.75, with the stock having a solid initial run, only to fall ~16% overnight to trade back below our entry-level. They announced a $2bn capital raise via preferred stock, which is clearly a surprise and highlights two issues for the Lithium company and the market more broadly. Cash flows are weak, and they need cash. This is understandable when we consider how the Lithium price has moved as outlined in this table, which looks at a summary of Lithium prices for the past year, along with the move between January and February of 2024. Read moreSnowflake (SNOW US) $US188.28
A tough session overnight for data business Snowflake (SNOW US), held in our International Equities Portfolio down 18% after announcing a mildly weaker outlook and the surprise departure of their CEO Frank Slootman - who’s incredibly well regarded. We think this surprise accounts for the majority of the decline and when combined with a slightly weaker-than-expected outlook, overlayed with the ~70% rally the stock has experienced since November, some selling is understandable. Read moreGuzman y Gomez – Results
The fast food Mexican is not a listed company but reported results today with a 1H loss of $3m on global sales that reached $471m in the half, up more than 30% on the same period a year ago. It opened 13 restaurants in Australia in the 6-months, and closed one, taking the network to 183 local stores across franchised and corporate-owned sites - same-store sales were up 11%. Read moreFirst Solar (FSLR US) US$144.99
In Australia, we’ve witnessed the boom and bust that has played out in the Lithium sector, as the supply response was significantly higher than many expected. In hindsight, this is understandable, decarbonisation is such a compelling theme, one of the most sure bets over the next 30 years and that in itself is a huge incentive to scale up to capture the benefits. Read moreThe Trade Desk (TTD US) $US82.56
The advertising technology company reported strong Q4 earnings at the end of last week, and the stock rallied ~17% on the result, although it pulled back ~7% overnight. This often plays out with TTD and other stocks that have a high degree of stock-based compensation for employees, the window to sell stock opens after they report results. Read morePeabody Energy (BTU US) $US24.38
Peabody (BTU US) is the largest coal producer in the US; its shares have trod a similar path to NHC & WHC with a touch less volatility. Earlier in the month, the company reported a 4Q net income of $US192mn, dropping down to a profit of $1.33 per share. Read moreAlbemarle Corp (ALB US) $US112.20
In simple terms, Lithium gets mined by companies like Pilbara (PLS) before it goes through a complex chemical process to produce Lithium Hydroxide or Carbonate to refine/upgrade it for battery use. Read moreInternational Equities Portfolio – Amendments
