Merger Mania

Boeing In Negative Headlines Again; Part of 737 Max Fuselage Blows Out During Commercial Flight
Image: Boeing's shares have been quite volatile the past couple years. On January 6, Boeing received some more bad news. Part of a fuselage installed on one of its new eight-week old 737 Max 9 aircraft blew out on an Alaska Airlines flight. Boeing had been working hard to get back on track with customer perception of the safety of its 737 MAX line-up, and we view the incident as yet another hiccup in the firm’s relations with the public.

Lockheed Martin Represents Key Aerospace & Defense Exposure
On October 17, Dividend Growth Newsletter portfolio holding Lockheed Martin reported decent third-quarter 2023 results with the firm growing revenue roughly 1.8% on a year-over-year basis, and the firm beating the consensus estimate for non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. We like Lockheed as our aerospace and defense exposure more than Boeing, given the latter’s long list of troubles and deteriorated financial health, punctuated in part by troubles during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and loss of life related to its 737 MAX platform. We think Lockheed offers a much better risk/reward and a healthy dividend to boot. Lockheed Martin yields ~2.8% at the time of this writing.

There Will Be Volatility
Image: An ETF tracking Russell 1000 "growth" stocks has outperformed an ETF tracking Russell 2000 "value" stocks since the beginning of 2021. To us, the market remains hypersensitive to almost every economic data point that hits the wires, and we’re just not going to play that game. The macro headlines and never-ending news flow are what many quant and algorithmic traders are trading on, and to a very large extent, for investors with a long-term horizon, these macro data points just don’t factor into the equation. When valuing equities, we’re always after mid-cycle expectations, not peak or trough performance, so our valuations implicitly embed a "normal" recession. Warren Buffett didn’t become a billionaire buying and selling on macro data points, and volatility is simply to be expected given the proliferation of price-agnostic trading these days. Instead of panicking over higher interest rates, we think investors should view the Fed’s work thus far as future potential dry powder to stimulate both the economy and the markets. Whenever you feel like stocks are no good, have a read of Warren Buffett’s classic piece written during the Great Financial Crisis, “Buy American. I Am.” To us, we still like stocks for the long run. Happy investing!

Paper: Value and Momentum Within Stocks, Too
Abstract: This paper strives to advance the field of finance in four ways: 1) it extends the theory of the “The Arithmetic of Active Management” to the investor level; 2) it addresses certain data problems of factor-based methods, namely with respect to value and book-to-market ratios, while introducing price-to-fair-value ratios in a factor-based approach; 3) it may lay the foundation for academic literature regarding the Valuentum, the value-timing, and ultra-momentum factors; and 4) it walks through the potential relative outperformance that may be harvested at the intersection of relevant, unique and compensated factors within individual stocks.

Honeywell Raises Outlook for 2023; Backlog Remains Strong
Image: Honeywell continues to experience strong fundamental momentum across the board. Image Source: Honeywell. We liked Honeywell’s first-quarter 2023 report, released April 27, and its raised outlook for 2023. We remain huge fans of Honeywell’s ~2.1% dividend yield, and we support Honeywell’s COO Vimal Kapur who will succeed Darius Adamczyk as CEO on June 1, 2023. Our fair value estimate for Honeywell remains $210 per share. With shares trading at ~$200 at the time of this writing, there’s still valuation upside to the Honeywell story, in our view.

We’ve Updated Our Fair Value Estimate of Boeing; Has Aerospace Bottomed?
Image: Boeing is expecting to turn the corner with respect to positive free cash flow in 2022 and grow it to ~$10 billion annually by 2025/2026. We think this is achievable. Image Source: Boeing. The breakout of COVID-19 wreaked havoc on the airline business and the commercial aircraft-making business alike. But has the commercial aerospace industry finally bottomed?
