I would appreciate your thoughts General Advice only Thanks

Answer

Hi David,

Like yourself we regard WTC as a quality operator and we know from a few friends their offering is regarded by them as the best, and while its expensive its also hard to move on from i.e.  hence the great client retention.

This cloud-based logistics software business reports on the 21st of the month and we should all be aware that WTC is historically very volatile on reporting day, with an average earnings surprise of over 13%, leading to an average 10.7% move in share price on the day of reporting i.e. another stock not for the faint hearted.

  • High growth tech stocks have come under pressure of late as the markets more direct rate-sensitive names have come to the fore.
  • WTC has corrected between $26 and $31 on three occasions over the last 4-years, we wouldn’t be surprised to see the same this year.

Hence buying weakness in the $70-75  area looks appealing but this could change on the 21st. We would be reticent to buy pre-results.
