Moody’s Current Valuation Is Not Justified

I last reviewed Moody's Corporation (MCO) in this July 26, 2022 post at which time MCO had just released Q2 and YTD2022 results. Based on this analysis of MCO's Q4 and FY2022 results and FY2023 outlook released on January 31, 2023, I am not adding to my exposure because the current valuation is not justified. [...]

I Am Not Adding To My Chevron Exposure

I last reviewed CVX in my August 18, 2022 guest post at Dividend Power at which time I concluded that the oil and gas demise was overblown. Following the January 27 release of Chevron's (CVX) exceptional FY2022 results, there appears to be a bit too much euphoria. This certainly was evident when CVX announced its [...]

When investing in BX, however, an investment must be for the long term. I say this because of the recent intense focus on the [...]

Goldman Sachs – High Expenses and Weak Investment Banking Revenue

  On January 17, 2023, Goldman Sachs (GS) reported weaker-than-anticipated Q4 and FY2022 results because of high expenses and weak Investment Banking revenue. Despite measures having been implemented to improve results, I am cautiously optimistic GS will experience further short-term share price weakness.

Danaher Exposure Increased In The FFJ Portfolio

At the time of my last Danaher (DHR) post, it had recently released its Q3 and YTD2022 results. I concluded that I plan to slowly increase my exposure given that its credit risk is improving and its current valuation and long-term outlook are attractive.
