Village Square - March 2023

Reporting season is over for another six months  and we welcome our Australasian Stockopedia members into the “Village Square”. Something we do at the end each month. Come join in the fun and frivolity and share one stock that we can all go off and research over the month ahead.

This is the third month  of gathering so we are slowly accumulating support. I say slow because we had a very small increase in submissions this period from the last. 

However as stipulated last month, the Village Square’s success and LONGEVITY will be dependent on the engagement we receive. So now with the reporting season just completed and a new set of numbers to base our decisions on, there is no reason why you can't put up a stock of interest for everyone to look at. And don't worry, if you are reading this a week or two after this has been posted, please still feel free to contribute. More the merrier and the Square is open all hours!

Just a refresher on the rules:

  • Share a SINGLE stock or a lesson learnt with everyone that we can all mull over for the coming month (JUST ONE EACH PLEASE!)

  • You are not required to write a dissertation about the business (unless you want to) - one sentence is sufficient.

  • We (Chris and I) are NOT going to be conducting analysis on these companies - nor will we be recording their performance.

  • This monthly exercise is purely done in the spirit of sharing and should NOT BE TAKEN AS ADVICE in any shape or form. Obviously stocks and views raised in this forum are not the shared views of Stockopedia.

  • Please don’t be judgmental of anyone’s selection and please don’t provide specific advice to anyone - even if you are trying to help them. Specific advice will be flagged and removed from the system. Giving a "Thumbs up" however is fine.

  • Remember to place a “@” (eg @bhp) in front of the code you wish to share. That way we can all access it quickly in Stockopedia

  • You can put a stock forward that has already been nominated. More the merrier. Just remember to state why you are putting it forward.

The idea of the Village Square is to generate a list of companies that each of us can conduct our own research into over the coming month to determine for ourselves whether they align with our own investment objectives and tolerance to risk.

As I did last month, I have provided an example of what is intended. Please see the addition from me in the comments section below to get an idea of an example. It needn't be too long or complex.

On behalf of the community we look forward to researching your stocks of interest.

Metcash (ASX:MTS) looks good both on Stockopedia and in other analysis. ROE and EPS are improving over past two years. The company is focused on the idea of "local" which gained traction during Covid. EBIT is growing strongly in Hardware and the market may not appreciate the potential of this segment, seeing MTS primarily as a low margin supermarket operator.

MAH is relatively cheap compared to PRN (my go-to stock last quarter).  Inflation will need to subside before the stock accents, my two cents !!!

Idea > someone has to do the work no one wants to do and they do it all. Not a multi-bagger but should be a good absolute return due to the stock price.

Infomedia (ASX:IFM) looks like they are starting to right the ship,  market liked their half-yearly numbers, does trade on a high PE though, which is reflected in their low value number.

DGL Group Ltd (ASX:DGL) . From a chart perspective, has remained below $1.80 since it's report in August last year. No ranking of significance at the moment but seems to be approaching.

 Over the past few days the stock has popped $1.80  and holding, after a  few  higher lows and higher  highs (Although not too pronounced). OBV  is supporting. 

Share price remained flat on latest report (Feb)  but had a significant rise following AGM in Nov 2022. As per report company is achieving growth organically and by acquisitions ( 6 successfully acquired in H1 2023) .

I will make an entry this week ,  if the price holds above  $1.80, and increase after the price rises above the 200ma which is not too far away.

Weststar Industrial (ASX:WSI) is 96 stock rank and trading at its cash balance at the moment. It's growing fast and forecasted to continue. I've loaded up :)

Endeavour (ASX:EDV) hasn't been loved in recent times, particularly since the Woolworths sell-down in December. But it saw a big jump in its overall StockRank score this reporting season... and it pays a nice divvy  (though it has already gone ex for the most recent one.)
