How Do You Find Undervalued Stocks Around the World?

Published

on

Identifying undervalued stocks can be tricky, especially for new investors without comprehensive knowledge of stock analysis.

And an even trickier process is when a company’s stock is considered to be undervalued compared to its peers, despite being constantly profitable and have long-term prospects.

This could be due to several factors: interest rates, inflation, broad market weakness – which can trigger a price overreaction, causing a fall in the share price of a high-quality stock.

So, how can you find a potential goldmine of a stock and be that patient investor, seeing it flourish to its truest potential?

Interactive Brokers has released a unique tool called IBKR GlobalAnalyst, which is intended to help investors interested in international portfolio diversification, to discover undervalued companies that may have greater growth potential.

Using GlobalAnalyst, investors can search for stocks by region, country, industry, market capitalisation, currency and other various metrics to identify undervalued stocks worldwide.  

“In addition to offering investment choices from more than 150 global markets, we continue to provide investors with leading technology and tools to help them make informed investment decisions,” Thomas Peterffy, Chairman and Founder of Interactive Brokers said. “GlobalAnalyst is a great tool for individual investors and sophisticated traders to begin their search, looking to take advantage of the benefits of investing globally.

“We emphasise that thorough analysis must always follow initial findings.”

One nifty feature is the P/E/G Ratio (Price to Earnings divided by three-year compound earnings growth rate).

The PEG ratio, by definition, will be equal to 1 when the growth rate of earnings is equal to the PE ratio. As the growth rate of earnings increases above the PE ratio, the PEG ratio becomes smaller, and as growth goes lower, PEG becomes higher. Sell the stocks above a PEG of 1+ and buy the ones below 1-, could be a valid strategy. 

Similarly, users may buy and sell and follow these stocks in the currency of their choice, all in one account on one screen from a single unified platform.

Boeing CEO to depart with lucrative exit package despite chaos

Published

on

Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun is set to step down from his position at the end of the year, walking away with a substantial payout despite challenges faced during his tenure.

Here are the key points:

  • Massive Payout: Despite Boeing’s stock price plummeting by 43% since Calhoun took over as CEO in 2020, he is poised to receive a $24 million payment upon his departure.

  • Additional Compensation: Calhoun holds options that could potentially earn him an additional $45.5 million if his successor manages to boost Boeing’s share price by 37%.

  • Comparative Compensation: Calhoun’s compensation during his tenure exceeds that of CEOs in similar industries, despite Boeing’s stock underperforming in comparison.

Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun’s impending departure at the end of the year has sparked controversy as he stands to walk away with a substantial payout, despite the company’s tumultuous journey under his leadership.

Despite inheriting a company reeling from the aftermath of two deadly 737 Max crashes, Calhoun’s tenure has been marred by further setbacks, including the recent Alaska Airlines door blowout incident that further tarnished Boeing’s reputation.

Boeing offers CEO $5.3 million incentive to stay through recovery …

With Boeing’s stock price plummeting by 43% during Calhoun’s time at the helm, questions arise about the correlation between executive compensation and company performance, especially in the face of such significant challenges.

‘Raised eyebrows’

Calhoun’s lucrative exit package, valued at $24 million, has raised eyebrows among shareholders and industry observers alike.

Additionally, the potential for Calhoun to earn an additional $45.5 million based on the future performance of Boeing’s shares has intensified scrutiny over executive compensation practices.

This sizable payout contrasts starkly with Boeing’s stock performance, which has significantly underperformed compared to both industry peers and broader market indices, highlighting the dissonance between executive rewards and shareholder value creation.

It’s been a record year for CEO compensation

Published

on

In 2023, Broadcom’s CEO Hock Tan was granted a stock award worth $161 million, propelling him into the realm of highest-paid CEOs.

However, as the company’s share price surged, the value of Tan’s award skyrocketed to approximately $1.3 billion, outpacing even the shareholders’ annual returns.

Tan’s compensation reflects a broader trend among top executives in the tech sector, where awards of restricted stock and stock options surged in value alongside company share prices.

Notably, CEOs like Charles Robbins of Cisco Systems and Shantanu Narayen of Adobe also saw substantial increases in their compensation, doubling in some cases.

The disclosure of such equity growth in executive compensation is a new requirement by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), providing shareholders with insights into the changing value of executives’ awards throughout the year.

CEO pay is on the rise.

New heights

Overall, CEO pay at major S&P 500 companies reached new heights in 2023, rebounding from slower growth in the previous year. The median pay for these CEOs rose to $15.6 million, up from $14.1 million in 2022, reflecting a surge in equity awards.

Broadcom clarified that Tan’s stock award is designed to span five years, with no plans for additional equity grants or cash bonuses during that period.

Tan’s compensation, which amounts to approximately $33 million annually over five years, is contingent upon his continued tenure and specific share price targets.

While the initial valuation of Tan’s restricted shares stood at $160.5 million, the surge in Broadcom’s share price prompted the company to reassess the likelihood of meeting vesting conditions.

This reassessment suggests that Tan may not receive all the shares initially granted.
