DXC Technology Looks Super Cheap
Image Shown: DXC Technology forecasts that its revenue in FY2020 will either be broadly flat or grow very modestly compared to its FY2019 performance. Image Source: DXC Technology – IR Presentation. While DXC Technology is experiencing top-line pressure due to weakness at its legacy businesses, its digital growth trajectory continues to look promising. Very strong free cash flows and a modest dividend policy leave plenty of room for upside as it relates to future dividend increases, particularly if share buybacks are scaled back.

Gold Is But a Shiny Yellow Metal
Image shown: The performance of an ETF tracking the price of gold bullion, less the expenses to run the ETF, since 2011. "What motivates most gold purchasers is their belief that the ranks of the fearful will grow. During the past decade that belief has proved correct. Beyond that, the rising price has on its own generated additional buying enthusiasm, attracting purchasers who see the rise as validating an investment thesis. As 'bandwagon' investors join any party, they create their own truth – for a while." -- Warren Buffett (2011 annual letter to shareholders)

Short-Term Headwinds Aside, Applied Materials Has a Bright Dividend Growth Trajectory
Image Source: Applied Materials.  Applied Materials’ strong free cash flow generation drives our favorable opinion of its dividend health, but investors should not ignore the inherent volatility and rapidly-changing dynamics of the semiconductor space, which introduces additional risk to our forecasts of future free cash flows. Near-term headwinds are prevalent for the company, but we think it is well-positioned to capitalize on future growth opportunities, thanks in part to a dedication to robust R&D spending.
