3 Undervalued Stocks to Consider Buying Now
All told, we think these three names are ripe for the picking. UnitedHealth Group has clearly plummeted on bad headline news, while the market is not giving Nvidia enough credit for the sustainability of its technology. Alphabet is being weighed down by antitrust issues and the concern that artificial intelligence will permanently alter its business model, which we believe will not happen anytime soon, if at all. All three ideas are included in the Best Ideas Newsletter portfolio, where we include a diversified portfolio of ideas for members to consider. Happy investing!

Magnificent 7 Earnings Reports Not Bad Thus Far
Shortly after Trump's Liberation Day, where the President unveiled lofty tariffs on numerous countries, we released our wait-and-see outlook for the equity markets, which thus far has proven to be the right move, with the markets largely recovering from the depths reached in April. The S&P 500, for example, is down just 3.3% year-to-date, excluding dividends. A lot has happened since Liberation Day, including easing of tariffs to a 10% baseline for most, if not all, countries, with the key exception of China, where tariffs remain extremely elevated and prohibitive. Many countries are now reportedly negotiating trade agreements with the White House, and we expect China to be added to that list soon, even if a full US/China trade agreement won't be completed in the near term, as full-scale trade deals take time to mold. Thus far, we have been impressed by earnings this season, particularly by the Magnificent 7.

Trump Tariffs Higher than Expected; What We're Doing
The Trump tariff increases came in larger than what we were expecting, and it remains to be seen how they will flow through the global economy, as we monitor potential retaliatory tariffs from other countries. As it relates to the equity markets, we’re taking a wait and see approach at the moment as we monitor new policy changes related to trade, immigration, fiscal (tax), and regulations. In short, we’re not overreacting to the sell off as we won’t have a great handle on the tariff impact to companies for a few quarters when they report results post-tariff increases. That said, we’re expecting continued market volatility, with meaningful risk to the downside, before trade uncertainty alleviates in the coming months.

Lululemon Continues to Execute on Its Growth Strategy
Image Source: TradingView. Lululemon ended 2024 with $2.0 billion in cash and cash equivalents, while inventories increased by 9%, to $1.4 billion at the end of the year. For 2025, Lululemon expects net revenue in the range of $11.15-$11.3 billion, representing growth of 5%-7%, or 7%-8%, excluding the 53rd week of 2024. Diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $14.95-$15.15 for the year, assuming a tax rate of approximately 30%. The company continues to execute on its Power of Three x2 growth plan calling for the doubling of the business from 2021 net revenue of $6.25 billion to $12.5 billion by 2026.

Lululemon’s International Business Powers Results, Tweaks 2024 Guidance
Image Source: Lululemon. For fiscal 2024, Lululemon now expects net revenue in the range of $10.452-$10.487 billion (was $10.375-$10.475 billion), representing growth of 9%, or 7% when excluding the extra week in 2024. The outlook was above the consensus forecast of $10.43 billion. Its diluted earnings per share is now expected in the range of $14.08-$14.16 (was $13.95-$14.15 per share) for the year. Thanks in part to strength of its International business, Lululemon’s Power of Three x2, which calls for a doubling of net revenue by 2026 from 2021 levels, to $12.5 billion, remains in the ballpark. The high end of our fair value estimate range stands at $400 per share.

Foot Locker Talks of a More Promotional Environment, Softening Consumer Spending
Image Source: Foot Locker. Looking to all of 2024, Foot Locker now expects sales growth to be -1.5% to -1% from -1% to +1% previously and comparable store sales growth of 1%-1.5%, down from the prior range of 1%-3%. It also lowered its EBIT margin outlook for the full year 2024 to the range of 2.3%-2.5% from 2.8%-3.2% previously. Non-GAAP earnings per share for the year is now targeted in the range of $1.20-$1.30 from $1.50-$1.70 previously. Given the disappointing outlook, we’re viewing Foot Locker as a put option idea candidate.

Brain Teaser - Reflexive versus Reflective
Image: Amy Leonard. Valuation multiples tend to trigger the reflexive side of our brain, and we process the multiples through anchoring. On the other hand, enterprise valuation, or the process required to answer the questions (in this article) correctly, shows that our reflexive process can be quite incorrect at times. In fact, cognitive biases such as anchoring can completely trip us up into missing out on truly undervalued companies that may have high P/E ratios while baiting us into value traps with low P/E ratios.

Lululemon Lowers 2024 Outlook
Image: Lululemon’s shares have come under pressure recently. Looking to 2024, Lululemon now expects net revenue in the range of $10.375-$10.475 billion, representing growth of 8%-9%, below consensus numbers and lower than its initial guidance of $10.7-$10.8 billion. Diluted earnings per share is now expected to be in the range of $13.95-$14.15 for the year, down from previous guidance of $14.27-$14.47. We have no plans to add Lululemon to any newsletter portfolio.
