Brain Teaser - Reflexive versus Reflective
Image: Amy Leonard. Valuation multiples tend to trigger the reflexive side of our brain, and we process the multiples through anchoring. On the other hand, enterprise valuation, or the process required to answer the questions (in this article) correctly, shows that our reflexive process can be quite incorrect at times. In fact, cognitive biases such as anchoring can completely trip us up into missing out on truly undervalued companies that may have high P/E ratios while baiting us into value traps with low P/E ratios.

Manpower Group’s Massive Free Cash Flow Yield Facing Some Pressures; Shares Have Dividend Yield of ~3%
Image: Manpower Group is a tremendous generator of free cash flow, though performance can be lumpy at times. Image Source: Manpower Group. Manpower Group has been acquisitive and is facing increased competition of late, but the company’s financials, particularly its free cash flow generation, remain quite attractive. The firm continues to buy back stock at a nice clip, too, as it pays its attractive semi-annual dividend of $1.36 per share. Though its free cash flow yield will face some pressure using pending 2022 results, Manpower Group could be an idea for investors seeking equities with outsized free cash flow yields in this market, in our view. We expect to fine-tune our assumptions within our discounted cash-flow model once the company’s fourth-quarter results are released in the coming weeks, but very few non-energy firms have such a strong normalized free cash flow yield as that of Manpower Group.

Korn Ferry Beats Expectations in Second Quarter

Image Source: Korn Ferry. Businesses around the world are dealing with new challenges in a post COVID-19 world, and global consulting firm Korn Ferry is working hard to build solutions for them. We continue to include Korn Ferry as an idea in the simulated Best Ideas Newsletter portfolio and remain huge fans of its enormous free cash flow generation and its pristine balance sheet that holds a material net cash position. We’re sticking with our $75 per-share fair value estimate, which implies upside potential to where shares are trading.

2022 Showcased the Value of a Valuentum Membership
In bull markets, almost everyone is a winner. But 2022 was different. This year was a big test for Valuentum, and we passed with flying colors. We delivered across the board during the year from ideas in the Exclusive publication and the efficacy of the dividend growth methodology to the resilience of high yield ideas and simulated Best Ideas Newsletter portfolio relative performance--despite setbacks from Meta Platforms, PayPal, and beyond. Tune in to the latest video installment from Valuentum. Thanks for listening!

Market Whipsaw: Crypto Collapse and a Lower-than-Expected Inflation Print
Image: Uncertainty in the cryptocurrency markets has surged with concerns over the liquidity of a key exchange. Investors are weighing the spillover effects of crypto with the view that the pace of inflation may have peaked. The U.S. equity market continues to be highly volatile as it whipsaws between concerns over the health and sustainability of cryptocurrency and optimism over lower-than-feared inflation readings. We maintain our bearish/defensive stance on equities, but at the same time, we continue to be “fully-invested” across the simulated newsletter portfolios in part because we don’t want to miss out on days like today, November 10, when the markets are soaring ~2.5%-5.5% depending on which index you are monitoring. We’re also not ruling out a Santa Claus rally through the end of the year. Merry Dow Jones, as they say!

VBI Ratings Not as Impressive As We Would Have Liked in 2022
Image: How the VBI rating system has ranked equities so far this year. At Valuentum, we use the Valuentum Buying Index (VBI) to source ideas into diversified simulated newsletter portfolios, and the VBI may be most applicable to the simulated Best Ideas Newsletter portfolio, where we generally like to include ideas when they register a high VBI rating and remove them when they register a low VBI rating. We always use the VBI in a portfolio setting and never by itself. Let's talk more about the VBI rating system in this work.
