Stock Picks – 52 Week Low Screen: 12-2-2015

52 Week Low

Two propane companies on the list this week – seems like a trend to me.  I will not be touching anything at these elevated levels – will wait for a good down day to make a move.

Here are this weeks results:

Name Ticker Price Fair Value Margin of Safety Yield % MOS %
Suburban Propane Partners LP SPH $28.90 $39.00 $10.10 11.7% 26%
Wal-Mart Stores Inc WMT $58.50 $75.00 $16.50 3.3% 22%
AmeriGas Partners LP APU $38.01 $48.00 $9.99 9.6% 21%

Based on the following 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 5% (should be above what the 10 Year Treasury Bond is yielding).
  5. Financial Health Grade >= B.
  6. Forward P/E <= 20.
  7. Stock Industry not = Asset Management
  8. Dividend Yield % >= 2.5
  9. 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.
