CEO David Trainer sat down with Chuck Jaffe of Money Life and to talk about our Danger Zone pick this past week: The Danger Zone Itself and our Focus List (Short) Model Portfolio.
Following a 59% gain, driven by strong earnings beats, NVR now receives an Attractive risk/reward rating. Despite the price increase and rating downgrade, the stock still remains undervalued.
This firm moved to bolster its position within its market by acquiring a competitor in 2016, but it paid too high a price. The expected synergies from the deal have not come to fruition and the profitability of the combined firm has fallen instead of rising.
This firm has a long history of profit growth, over four decades of dividend growth, and an executive compensation plan that properly incentivizes executives to create shareholder value. Add in a cheap valuation, and it’s clear why this firm is this week’s Long Idea.
