Beware Big Tech And Buy These 7% Yielding Blue-Chip Bargains

Oct. 18, 2023 7:05 AM ET, , , 15 Comments

Summary

  • Big tech has driven the Nasdaq up 40% and S&P 20% this year. Big tech is now 30% of the market.
  • The Nasdaq is pricing in 20% earnings growth this year and 63% EPS growth through 2025, ignoring a recession that the bond market says is a 96% probability.
  • Historically, big tech's earnings fall about 20% during recessions, meaning there is a 40% difference between what is likely and what the market expects to happen.
  • Big tech could be as much as 45% overvalued, adjusting for the likely recession in 2024. In a stagflation recession soaring rates could send the Nasdaq down 30% to 50%.
  • Financials are the opposite of big tech. They are priced for recession already and trading at a bargain valuation of less than 12X earnings. And these two blue-chip bargains offer a safe 7% yield and coiled spring opportunities to lock in incredible Buffett-like return potential from blue-chip bargains hiding in plain sight.

Now a lot of investors
