Morgan Stanley Expecting Substantial Improvements
Image Source: Morgan Stanley Earnings Presentation. Morgan Stanley is guiding return on tangible equity to go from 12.9% this year to 13-15% in two years and to 15-17% in the longer term. Management was quite clear that they are using the assumption that the economy and markets move ahead at normal levels, meaning no severe recessions or booms. That said, if the company hits these goals, it will drive fundamentals ahead at a steady clip, requiring a reset higher in its valuation. Jan 21, 2020

Why We Like Republic Services Over Casella
Image Source: Republic Services Inc – 2018 Annual Report. Let's talk about the story of two garbage haulers, one that is extremely pricey and one that we just added to the Dividend Growth Newsletter portfolio. Casella has experienced an impressive growth spurt during the past few years, and we model in substantial growth in the coming years, but now the rally in CWST has gotten ahead of itself. Given the unsystematic risks Casella faces and the enormous amount of growth priced into its stock, shares of CWST could fall materially should the company stumble. We prefer the stability and strength of Republic Services in terms of its large geographical footprint, managed debt maturity schedule, investment-grade credit ratings, and free cash flow growth outlook. Republic Services also pays out a nice dividend with room for substantial payout growth, while Casella is using its free cash flows to fund its growth ambitions. We like Republic Services as a top quality defensive addition to our Dividend Growth Newsletter portfolio. The non-hazardous solid waste disposal industry is quite lucrative and one that offers a lot of upside, keeping in mind the current economic expansion is long in the tooth. Having some exposure to more defensive industries is a prudent move, in our view. Jan 17, 2020
Bank of America Gaining Share
Image Source: Bank of America Earnings Presentation. We are increasing our fair value estimate of Bank of America to $40 per share, as we view the market share gains at the bank and steady loan and deposit growth to be more sustainable than we had previously envisioned. We like the bank’s solid franchise, the management team, and we like the shares here as it tries to catch up with larger peer JPMorgan. Jan 17, 2020
Citigroup Succeeding at Cross-Selling
Image Source: Citigroup Earnings Presentation. Citigroup is finally out-earning our estimate of its cost of capital with a return on tangible common equity (ROTCE) of 12.4% in the quarter, and the shares have rallied substantially more recently as a result. Management lowered expectations for the degree of return on tangible equity improvement going into 2020, but continued improvements would be welcome, nonetheless. Jan 17, 2020
