Pullback in CSR

Hi James,

Just wondering what your take was on CSR having a stumble yesterday.

Cheers Richard

Answer

Hi Richard,

CSR has pulled back inline with the overall Building Sector with COVID appearing to weigh on the group. We remain fans of the stock and may consider increasing our holding close to $5 if the opportunity arises.

The Match Out: Gold and Oil left behind again, Equities tick higher

Investors continued the 180-degree about-face from last week's sentiment, happy to take on risk for the second consecutive day to start this week seeing the ASX200 through a 200pt gain from Friday’s panic lows early in today’s session. Tech was the standout as US 2yr yields retreated (marginally) from the spike above 5% last week while Healthcare and Financials also joined in the rebound. Energy and Gold were the main areas finding it tough again today, for the same geopolitical reasons as Monday’s session.

What Matters Today: Are Macquarie & now Citi correct that the banks are a sell?

On Monday, Citi joined Macquarie with a “sell call” on the major banks, which saw the sector reverse early gains to close near their intra-day lows, ANZ even slipped into negative territory. There were two major reasons behind their bearish stance: • Citi believes the valuations of the banks are stretched considering the potential political “attacks on their profits”, i.e. when the RBA starts cutting, they will be forced to follow suit at the expense of profitability. • Macquarie said to “sell” the banks in mid-March as the sector posted new highs, again a call on valuation grounds; good timing so far! The cornerstone of Citi's argument is valuation, which could be applied to the whole market when the ASX200 is challenging new all-time highs. Overall, it is an understandable view, but we question if it's a good enough reason to exit the sector, forgoing enticing dividends and potentially incurring capital gains issues after the “Big Four” have run so hard.
