Welcome to Episode #16 of the Value Investor Podcast Every week, Zacks value stock strategist and the Editor of Zacks Value Investor portfolio service, Tracey Ryniec, talks about all things happening in the value stock universe, including her top stock picks. After recently having a regional bank stock blow-up in her Value Investor portfolio, Tracey was too aware of the risks of buying individual stocks. But if even a value investor can get burned buying stocks, how do you lessen the risk? One way to do that, and still be in the value stock game, is by buying value stock ETFs. Historically, the value stock indexes have outperformed the regular stock indexes. Value has even done better than growth. In the last 2 years, however, value has underperformed. That means there is a buying opportunity now. Tracey believes you should have more than one ETF in a portfolio. While she likes small cap value, and invests herself in that sector, investors shouldn’t forget about the mid-caps. The large caps can also be a good way to lessen your portfolio volatility. Here are Tracey’s favorite value ETFs: 1. Vanguard Small Cap Value ETF (VBR): Tracey owns this ETF. She likes its low expense ratio and that its largest sector holdings is in financials. 2. Guggenheim S&P Small Cap 600 Pure Value ETF (RZV): This ETF only owns 150 “pure” value stocks. 3. Vanguard Mid-Cap Value ETF (VOE): It holds 210 companies and tracks the CRSP US midcap value index. 4. iShares S&P Mid Cap 400 Value ETF (IJJ): Industrials are the largest sector and real estate is in the top five. 5. Vanguard Large Cap ETF (VV): Holds 610 mostly domestic US companies. It yields 2%. ETFs may seem like a boring way to invest, but for value investors, it can be a great way to get value exposure while lowering the risk of owning individual stocks. Find out what else Tracey likes about value ETFs in this week’s podcast.

Welcome to Episode #56 of the Zacks Market Edge Podcast. Every week, host and Zacks stock strategist, Tracey Ryniec, will be joined by guests to discuss the hottest investing topics in stocks, bonds and ETFs and how it impacts your life. In this episode, Tracey is joined by Eric Dutram, Zacks ETF Strategist, and Ryan McQueeney, Zacks Content Writer, to discuss how investors can cash in on the Internet of Things. In 2016, there are already 22.9 billion connected devices including thermostats, televisions and refrigerators. The number of connected devices is expected to double by 2020 to over 50 billion. Someone is going to make a lot of money off this phenomenon, so why not be a part of it? There are multiple ways investors can play it including through the cloud or networking companies, the semiconductors, as they’re the ones making the chips and sensors that go into the products, and the manufacturers of the products themselves. Imagine if everyone in America suddenly wanted a “smart” washing machine? Someone is going to make a lot of money making and replacing all the old ones. There are several companies that are going full throttle into the Internet of Things: 1. Amazon (AMZN) is the leader because of the Echo 2. Alphabet (GOOGL) has Nest, the smart thermostat, and has also developed a device to challenge the Echo 3. Airgain (AIRG) is a small company that went IPO in August 2016. It makes WiFi antennas for customers like DirectTV. Devices used to have 1 to 2 antennas per product and now have 10 to 12. 4. Qualcomm (QCOM) recently announced its acquisition of NXP Semiconductor in a $47 billion deal which will make it one of the leaders of the Internet of Things on the chip side. And for those interested in a basket of stocks in multiple sectors that are involved in the Internet of Things, then the new Global X Internet of Things ETF (SNSR) might be just what the doctor ordered. This gives you a diversified portfolio of companies throughout the entire Internet of Things infrastructure. What else should you know about one of the biggest global transformations of the next 5 years? Tune into this week’s podcast to find out.

Welcome to Episode #15 of the Value Investor Podcast Every week, Zacks value stock strategist and the Editor of Zacks Value Investor portfolio service, Tracey Ryniec, talks about all things happening in the value stock universe, including her top stock picks. This week, Tracey looks into an industry that used to be expensive but that, after the stocks have slid, is a place to find value stocks. The restaurant industry was one of the hottest of 2014 and 2015 with a dozen new restaurant IPOs and some of the biggest high growth stock names including Chipotle (CMG) and Shake Shack. But worries about challenging economic conditions and a consumer that was pulling back on eating out, has sent the stocks in the industry on a downward spiral. Suddenly, expensive stocks were now cheaper. But are they cheap enough to be value stocks? Tracey ran a screen to see if any of the restaurant stocks were a genuine value only by looking at valuation. 4 Restaurant Stocks Value Investors Should Keep on Their Short List 1. Fogo de Chao, Inc. (FOGO), the Brazilian steakhouse, trades with a forward P/E of just 13.5. 2. Red Robin Gourmet Burger (RRGB) recently closed all of its Red Robin Burger Works urban store concepts. Are burger chains in trouble? Its forward P/E is 15.7. 3. Bojangles (BOJA), the southeastern chicken chain, has a forward P/E of 17.5. 4. El Pollo Loco (LOCO), the California chicken chain, has a forward P/E of 17.9. None of these chains have reported earnings yet this earnings season. Investors should look at fundamentals, such as earnings growth or declines, in addition to valuation before deciding to buy a stock. Value investors have more to look at besides just finding a cheap stock. The restaurants are Tracey’s favorite sector. Find out what she thinks about these cheap stocks and whether or not value investors should dive in on this week’s podcast.

Welcome to Episode #55 of the Zacks Market Edge Podcast. Every week, host and Zacks stock strategist, Tracey Ryniec, will be joined by guests to discuss the hottest investing topics in stocks, bonds and ETFs and how it impacts your life. In this episode, Tracey is joined by Steve Reitmeister, Executive Vice President of Zacks and the editor of the portfolio service the Reitmeister Trading Alert, to discuss the important topic of when to sell a stock. A lot of focus is put on what stocks to buy and when, but very little is put onto the other end of the equation of when you should sell a stock. But it is just as important for investors to learn when to sell as it is when to buy. There are two scenarios for selling a stock: 1. Short term traders: they can use the Zacks Rank system by selling Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell) stocks. If you used the Zacks Rank system to trade the fertilizer stocks like Mosaic (MOS), for instance, you would have seen it as a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell) or #4 (Sell) for the last eleven months. That’s sending a strong signal. What about selling stops of 10% to 20%? Tracy and Steve discuss whether or not they recommend stops to contain losses or harvest gains. Short term trading can also be very emotional where traders try to “make it back” after bad news hits the stock. Tracey and Steve discuss what happens when your company is in the news for unsavory behavior and whether or not you should sell on an earnings miss or when guidance is lowered. 2. Long term investors: this is the harder of the two scenarios because long term traders can get complacent. Make sure you keep up-to-date on your company and keep watch on the business. Many of those in Xerox (XRX) over the last few decades have seen a real change in the business. For those in it for the long term, rising earnings estimates are still important. Microsoft (MSFT) may have higher growth now but for many years, earnings were stagnant. Should you have sold it years ago? Issues which can impact a long term investment can be a technology or product that becomes obsolete; change or death in management such as at Apple (AAPL) when Steve Jobs died; and corporate scandals, including fraud or accounting mis-management, like the stories swirling about Banc of California (BANC) this month. What else should you know about when you should sell a stock? Tune into this week’s podcast to find out.

Welcome to Episode #14 of the Value Investor Podcast Every week, Zacks value stock strategist and the Editor of Zacks Value Investor portfolio service, Tracey Ryniec, talks about all things happening in the value stock universe, including her top stock picks. This week, Tracey discusses the auto stocks which all look really cheap. Most of them are trading with single digit forward P/Es. Is this a dream come true for value investors or is it a value trap? Remember, a value trap is a company that appears to be cheap by its fundamentals but which really isn’t because earnings are on the decline. Tracey dug into the auto stocks to determine if they really are just cheap stocks or if value investors are walking into a trap. 5 Auto Stocks: Cheap or Value Traps? 1. General Motors (GM) has a forward P/E of just 5.4. 5.4! Is now the time to buy? 2. Ford (F) is almost as cheap as GM. It has a forward P/E of 6.5. What are investors missing? 3. Magna International (MGA) makes auto chassis, exterior, vision systems, and roofs. It trades with a forward P/E of 8. Are the auto parts companies in a different place than the auto makers? 4. Borg Warner (BWA) has a forward P/E of 10.5. It makes combustion systems, starters and alternators. 5. Lear Corporation (LEA) makes seating and electrical systems for the auto industry. It has a forward P/E of 8.7. Are rising earnings estimates a game changer? Find out what Tracey thinks about these value stocks on this week’s podcast.

Welcome to Episode #54 of the Zacks Market Edge Podcast. Every week, host and Zacks stock strategist, Tracey Ryniec, will be joined by guests to discuss the hottest investing topics in stocks, bonds and ETFs and how it impacts your life. In this episode, Tracey is joined by Jeremy Mullin, editor of Zacks Counterstrike portfolio service. For 10 years, Jeremy has been trading the after-hours trading sessions, both before the open and after the market closes. Tracey and Jeremy discuss the trading platforms you need to trade in the after-hours. It’s not as complicated as you may think. What are some of Jeremy’s top tips to trading stocks in the after-hours? 1. Stay away from “thick” stocks like Pfizer (PFE) that won’t have big moves. 2. Look for thinner stocks with bigger spreads, especially the hot stocks that will make big moves like Netflix (NFLX) and Baidu (BIDU) 3. Be nimble. Don’t be stubborn. 4. “You never go broke taking profits.” And there’s more. Jeremy and Tracey discuss the after-hours trade on some recent earnings reports including Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) and Domino’s Pizza (DPZ). What about trading the first earnings reports on recent IPOs? Jeremy shares his thoughts about jumping in on those in the after-hours. Want to know some of the lessons Jeremy has learned over the last decade? Tune into this week’s podcast to find out.

Welcome to Episode #13 of the Value Investor Podcast Every week, Zacks value stock strategist and the Editor of Zacks Value Investor portfolio service, Tracey Ryniec, talks about all things happening in the value stock universe, including her top stock picks. This week, Tracey discusses how value investors need to look for buying opportunities. Value investors buy in industries and sectors everyone else is scared of. Fear is the value investor’s friend. Right now, one of the most fearful parts of the global economy is in Great Britain. The Brexit vote is continuing to have investment ramifications as questions swirl about whether it will be a difficult separation or not. The British pound just suffered one of the top 40 worst 4-day periods in its history, as it fell nearly 5%. It is at 1985 lows. A value investor might ask: are British stocks being hit just as badly? And if so, are there some buying opportunities there? Tracey looks at the ways you can get into the game including through buying British companies that are trading on the US stock exchanges as well as through buying country-specific ETFs. The ETFs give you more diversified exposure. Are British Stocks on Sale? 1. GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) has a forward P/E of 16.7. It also pays a dividend yielding 4.6%. 2. AstraZeneca (AZN) is trading with a forward P/E of 15.5. Shareholders are rewarded with dividends yielding 4.3%. 3. British American Tobacco (BTI) isn’t very cheap. It has a forward P/E of 19. Tracey is also keeping a couple of stocks on her “watch” list. Which ones does she think have potential? What About Country ETFs? 1. iShares United Kingdom ETF (EWU): specializes in mid-and-large cap companies. Only down 3% on the year. 2. iShares United Kingdom ETF (EWUS): focuses on 240 small cap companies. It is down 12% year-to-date. Tracey believes there is a buying opportunity in one of these. Which one does she like? Check out this week’s podcast to find out what values may lurk in the British Isles.

Welcome to Episode #12 of the Value Investor Podcast Every week, Zacks value stock strategist and the Editor of Zacks Value Investor portfolio service, Tracey Ryniec, talks about all things happening in the value stock universe, including her top stock picks. This week, Tracey looks into industries and sectors. Energy is the best performing sector year-to-date in the S&P 500 followed by utilities. But you won’t find many value stocks in either group. But there’s one industry that has stocks with cheap valuations AND the earnings are on the rise. What is that lucky industry? The gold miners. Tracey has considered the gold miners to be value traps in the past, but in 2016 she has a different take. This might just be the industry where value investors can find some hidden gems. 3 Cheap Gold Mining Stocks to Buy Now 1. Gold Fields (GFI): forward P/E of 14. 2. Anglogold Ashanti (AU): forward P/E of 13.4 3. Sibanye Gold (SBGL): forward P/E of 8.3 Find out why Tracey is digging these gold mining stocks and more on this week’s podcast.

Welcome to Episode #52 of the Zacks Market Edge Podcast. Every week, host and Zacks stock strategist, Tracey Ryniec, will be joined by guests to discuss the hottest investing topics in stocks, bonds and ETFs and how it impacts your life. In this episode, Tracey is joined by Brian Bolon, editor of Zacks Stocks Under $10 and the Game Changer portfolio services to discuss the recent uptick in the IPO market. By all accounts, IPOs have been dead in 2016. It has been the lowest number of technology IPOs since the Great Recession. But in May and June, two hot technology companies finally went public which lit a fire under the IPO market. Twilio and Acacia Brought the Market Back Twilio (TWLO) and Acacia (ACIA) are both up over 300% above their IPO prices. Twilio is a cloud communications platform while Acacia makes optical chips and devices. Twilio is not expected to be profitable in 2016 or 2017 but Acacia is making money but it’s no value. It trades with a forward P/E of 46. Recently, enterprise cloud company Nutanix (NTNX) became the latest hot IPO, rising 178% above its IPO price in just two days. It has a market cap above $6 billion. But it has never had a profitable quarter. It lost $126 million in fiscal 2015 and $168.5 million in fiscal 2016 even as revenue has doubled. What do Tracey and Brian think of these IPOs? Should you get in? What IPOs are Coming Up Soon? 1. Camping World (CWH) is Marcus Lemonis’ company that owns RV dealerships, gear and travel services. It’s profitable and grew revenue 25% from 2014 to 2015. The RV makers like Thor Industries (THO) have strong fundamentals. Camping World could be a hot one. 2. Coupa Software (COUP) is a cloud software maker expected to raise $123 million. 3. Everspin Tech (MRAM) has the magic formula of a hot stock, hot industry and low float. Big names are bringing this deal. 4. Azure (AZRE) is bringing solar power in India on long term fixed contracts. 5. AquaVenture (WAAS) builds desalination and waste water treatment solutions on long term contracts. It also offers point-of-use filtered water systems to 40,000 customers. Which of these IPOs do Tracey and Brian like? Which one does Brian think is a “must buy”? Find out all of this and more on this week’s podcast.

Welcome to Episode #11 of the Value Investor Podcast Every week, Zacks value stock strategist and the Editor of Zacks Value Investor portfolio service, Tracey Ryniec, talks about all things happening in the value stock universe, including her top stock picks. This week, Tracey digs into the IPO market. After a really slow market in IPOs, the last week saw a flurry of activity including ELF Beauty (ELF), which went public expecting to raise $100 million but instead booked $141 million after it priced above expectations. Shares of ELF, which makes lower priced cosmetics, finished up 56% on their first day of trading. But IPOs are usually high growth companies and they don’t come cheap. Can value investors ever buy into an IPO when it first launches? You may be surprised by the answer. Outside of stocks, Tracey also discusses how to play IPOs using ETFs. There are two IPO ETFs, the Renaissance IPO ETF (IPO) and the First Trust US IPO ETF (FPX). Which one does Tracey like and why?

Welcome to Episode #10 of the Value Investor Podcast Every week, Zacks value stock strategist and the Editor of Zacks Value Investor portfolio service, Tracey Ryniec, talks about all things happening in the value stock universe, including her top stock picks. This week, Tracey discusses value stocks that are trading near their 52-week highs. That seems counter intuitive right? If it’s a value stock, doesn’t that mean it’s out of favor with other investors and with Wall Street? Not necessarily. Tracey ran a screen looking for those stocks with the best Zacks Ranks of #1 (Strong Buy) or #2 (Buy), which means rising earnings estimates, with a Zacks Value Style Score of “A” and which were trading within 10% of their 52-week highs. She got an eclectic group with outstanding value fundamentals and momentum, but surprisingly, also strong earnings growth, which she didn’t even screen for. These are her top 3 stocks out of the screen. 3 Value Stocks Near Their Highs 1. Emcor (EME): Forward P/E of 18 2. Modine Manufacturing (MOD): Forward P/E of 13.6 3. Vishay Intertechnology (VSH): Forward P/E of 15.5 Analysts expect Emcor to see earnings growth of 13.9% in 2016. Modine Manufacturing, which is celebrating 100 years of business this year, is forecast to see 9.9% EPS growth this fiscal year while Vishay Intertechnology, a semiconductor maker, is expected to see 24% EPS growth this year.

Welcome to Episode #50 of the Zacks Market Edge Podcast. Every week, host and Zacks stock strategist, Tracey Ryniec, will be joined by guests to discuss the hottest investing topics in stocks, bonds and ETFs and how it impacts your life. In this episode, Tracey is joined by John Blank, Zacks Chief Equity Strategist, to discuss what’s going on in America’s housing market. In 2016, builders are expected to add 320,000 new apartments across the United States, up 50% from 2015. Tracey and John have the most hands on experience with Chicago and Los Angeles as Tracey lives in Chicago and John lives in Los Angeles so they are both able to see the cranes that are dominating the skylines. In Chicago, another 8,300 apartments are expected in 2016 with 6,200 going up in Los Angeles. There are also big condo/hotel and commercial real estate projects going up in both cities. Los Angeles has a $700 million mixed use project expected to go up across from the Staples Center. In Chicago, ground was just recently broken on the Vista Tower, a $1 billion hotel and condo building which will be the third tallest in the city. Tracey and John discuss whether or not it is too much at too high of prices. Who owns all of these buildings? Will someone get into trouble if there is an economic slowdown? As a stock investor, you can own apartment REITs. Tracey and John discuss some of the biggest REITs and their payouts: 1. Equity Residential (EQR): dividend = 3.1% 2. AvalonBay (AVB): dividend = 3.1% 3. UDR (UDR): dividend = 3.4% They also discuss the single family home rental market which has become big business after companies bought up foreclosures following the Great Recession. There are two big home rental companies: 1. American Homes 4 Rent (AMH) 2. Colony Starwood Homes (SFR) Colony said in the second quarter that total occupancy was at 95% and that it was still seeing “strong demand.” Should you invest in any of these real estate stocks?

Welcome to Episode #49 of the Zacks Market Edge Podcast. Every week, host and Zacks stock strategist, Tracey Ryniec, will be joined by guests to discuss the hottest investing topics in stocks, bonds and ETFs and how it impacts your life. In this episode, Tracey is joined by Eric Dutram, Zacks ETF strategist and editor of the ETF Investor, and Maddy Johnson, a Zacks editor. Eric and Maddy are both Millennials while Tracey is the lone Generation Xer this week. The Millennials continue to make the news, for good or bad. How will they influence the global trends? Millennials Are Already Investing While many may think the Millennials aren’t really in this stock market, over 25% of those under 30 now own stocks. Tracey looked up the data from 1999, when the dot-com era was booming and everyone in Generation X seemed to be day trading, and found just 19% were in stocks. Could Millennials be more into investing than people think? Or is it the ease of investing, not just on the internet, but, most importantly, through apps on their phones, that is driving the numbers higher now? The Millennials, because of their huge size, will have an outsized influence on current and future trends. How can investors cash in on the likes, and dislikes, of the Millennials? 1. A couple of ETFs have recently launched that aim to mimic the buying habits and interest of the Millennials including the Global X Millennials ETF (MILN) and Principal Millennials Index (GENY). 2. Check out the Health and Wellness ETF (BFIT) which has a strong focus on consumer names like Adidas, Foot Locker and Lululemon. 3. Millennials won’t stay young forever. There are several longevity ETFs you can take a look at such as the Long Term Care ETF (OLD) and the Global X Longevity ETF (LNGR) which focus on senior housing and healthcare companies. What else should you know about cashing in on the buying power of the Millennials? Tracey, Maddy and Eric discuss what could go “out” of favor (newspapers anyone?) and what will stay “hot” in products and entertainment, as well as an important possible IPO to watch out for, in this week’s podcast. And if Millennials themselves ARE investing, what are they investing in? The answers may surprise you in this podcast: Millennials: Scared to Invest or Just Broke?
