Stock Picks – 52 Week Low Screen 6-10-2015

Name Ticker Price Fair Value Margin of Safety % Yield
American Express Co AXP $80.29 $95.00 $14.71 1.47
Spectra Energy Corp SE $34.00 $46.00 $12.00 4.37
Franklin Resources Inc BEN $50.19 $58.00 $7.81 1.21

Based on the following screen:

  • 52 Week Low Screen:
  1. Morningstar analysis available.
  2. Less than 5% above its 52 week low.
  3. Greater than or equal to narrow moat.
  4. Free cash flow/enterprise value greater than 3% (should be above what the 10 Year Treasury Bond is yielding).
  5. Financial Health Grade >= B.
  6. Forward P/E <= 20.
  7. For candidates that have passed all the filters, review the individual stocks Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) for the previous 10 years to select the best long term candidates.

Note: I sold a cash secured put on Spectra Energy Corp. last week.
