Alternative Screen: Stocks Trading at 75% or Lower to Fair Value

Not surprisingly, there are no picks from my 52 Week Low screen – so I am using the 25% off alternative screen this week:

Ticker Price Fair Value Margin of Safety Yield %
ALXN $122.61 194 $71.39 0.0%
BIIB $232.83 356 $123.17 0.0%
BMRN $80.51 123 $42.49 0.0%
GILD $81.87 124 $42.13 2.2%
WSM $53.79 76 $22.21 2.7%

I am starting to think Biotechnology Firms are trading on the likelihood of a Hillary Clinton Presidency?

I am not sure why, the Donald seems equally hostile to the industry – and is more likely to do something stupid.

Quite the dilemma – that is the only sector I am finding value, but if both Presidential Candidates seem determined to decimate the industry – it might be a value trap.

This is not an academic question for me – I have been putting together a large position in Gilead Sciences – so I will be monitoring this issue closely.

Results are based on the following screen:

  1. Price / Fair Value <= 0.75
  2. Economic Moat >= Narrow
  3. Financial Health Grade >= B
  4. Morningstar Rating = Five Stars

z - even even smaller
