An unlikely winner and a true loser of the stock market!

12/15/2018

 
Stock Card's winner and loser of the week

This week the stock market created too many losers. Not many loser companies from the operational point of view, but just loser stocks from the share price point of view. The losing streak is so prominent that it is hard to find a winner. But, don't you worry, we've got you a winner:

Burlington Stores, Inc. (Ticker: BURL)
 
Burlington! Yeh, You may know it as Burlington Coat Factory. Let me tell you something! Put the coffee you have in your hands on the table. Ready? Burlington stock has done better than Amazon and Netflix in the past 5 years. Total 5-year return on a daily basis for Burlington Stores is up by 492%. In the same period, Amazon is up by 331.9%, and Netflix is up by 423.7%. Think about it! While most investors have been chasing the tech and weed stocks, the folks at Burlington have been doing something well. While the revenue hasn't grown that significantly, the company has improved its earnings per share (partly, thanks to the tax cuts). And, when you are a small company that is not talked about a lot, the algorithms pick you up based on your earnings improvements. And, that's the story of this successful winner. Thanks to Chris Hill from the Market Foolery podcast who brought this winner to our attention.

Loser: Johnson & Johnson (Ticker: JNJ)
 
Who hasn't seen the report by Reuters that mentions Johnson & Johnson knew for decades that its baby powder included asbestos! Oh no! Not in baby powders! This is a significant blow to the company's brand. The stock dropped by about 10%, and the company lost $40 Billion of its value. The company has categorically denied it, and we are now waiting to see what the truth is. If it is proven right, the brand value the company is going to lose may not be easy to recover anytime soon. Just ask Volkswagen or BP!

Should you invest in Beyond Meat after its IPO?

Beyond Meat filled its S1 Documentation in November of 2018, which means the company is getting ready to go public soon. Typically, when it's a new IPO, we hold off from it. There is no rush to invest in an IPO for several reasons including the fact that most IPOs get hyped up at the beginning to give the company a chance to raise as much money as possible. But, Beyond Meat maybe an exception to such a rule. In this episode of Renegade Investors podcast, we explore whether or not you should invest in Beyond Meat when it goes public. We will hear from the founder and CEO of the company. We also dig deep into the S1 document and other resources to assess whether the company is worthy of a spot in our long-term portfolios.

Stock Card request of the week
Picture
Receiving Stock Card requests from our premium members is a pretty fun event around Stock Card HQ. When the request bell rings, all of us take out our phones to see what has piqued the interest of our premium members. This week, our favorite is Ulta Beauty. I personally never even walked in an Ulta store. But, the stock is one of the best-performing stocks in the past few years. What's so interesting about the company is that it recently entered into an exclusive partnership deal with the Kardashians to sell Kim Kardashian’s fragrances and also a new cosmetics line from Kylie Jenner, which are available in the upcoming holiday season. If you've been with us for a while, we've talked about The Jenner Effect on the price of a stock. While the Jenner Effect hasn't been as prominent as it could be for Ulta's stock, in the age of Instagram celebrities and products, Ulta Beauty is on the right track (By the way, this is not a BUY recommendation)!
