Gregmal Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 The context of the title is simple; a wee bit back I recall talking with a manager who recounted how he bet big on BP during the oil spill. I've heard countless times from folks who bought financials or real estate during the GFC. The is obviously a period cut from the same type of fundamental disruption fabric. So, for those willing to get their hands dirty, what names in the hospitality, restaurant, airline, cruise, entertainment biz are you looking at as the name you boast about buying during the coronavirus panic 5-10 years from now? If not a specific name, what investment are you making or looking to make? These are the scenarios where fortunes are made, if they arent lost first. For me, I've been long a shareholder of the MSG entities. Ive regularly stated I planned to sell the entertainment company upon spin off. However, it is becoming apparent as the April 17 date approaches, that the spin off will get an abhorrent valuation despite having no debt and over $1B in cash. I am very much intending to hold my existing shares, and flirting with the idea of adding depending upon where things stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does Facebook have the overhang of BK? Whoops my bad - typed that fast - I meant that facebook has an overhang from politics, congress desire to split it up etc. Some of these do not have an overhang of bk but have an overhang of sorts which should alleviate the overhang with time.

Spekulatius Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Actually, buying BP during the oils spill wasn’t all that profitable. Whatwad profitable we buying the collateral damage - stocks like HAL. I generally don‘t buy the directly affected Company, But the collateral damage. These stocks may be down less, but typically their exposure to the calamity in question is way less, making them a better risk reward. In terms of the current situation, Imam not sure that airlines hotel are a good buy currently. It seems that most airlines are probably zeros in a prolonged scenario and hotels may at least have raise capital to survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right but I think hotels are different, and especially in Park's is different. They are the best house in the worst neighborhood. Same with AerCap. Also, enough liquidity to weather for 6-8 months. Any longer however I will feel this downturn may be greater than the recession, as viruses has no feelings on stimulus and whatever else. So trying to get into "safe" may protect your downside a bit intrinsically, but extrinsically (I mean share price) it may not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems people don't like biz in brazil, and I don't blame them with the their track record but it seems legit when speaking to friends who live in brazil. Edit: In fact - the desire to save cost and have remote services will allow stoneco to weather this and maybe thrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregmal Posted April 2, 2020 Author Share Posted April 2, 2020 I'm hardly a forex expert, but to some degree have always assumed our "reserve currency" status is not so much related to our genius politicians/system but to the fact that we have the best businesses in the world calling US home.

However, if the US does not control it, it is in the realm of possibilities where the virus takes down quality businesses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That again seems to be apparent when we look to COVID leadership. It was companies who took the lead, not politicians. It's mostly due to historic reasons (WWI -> WWII -> Bretton Woods) and the fact that at least so far the USA is willing to cover the costs of having a reserve currency (the benefits are mostly political). There is no alternative in sight. There's no other country that would accept this burden. Same with foreign countries buying USA debt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bizaro86 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I have Aercap and Park for the same "best house in worst neighborhood" reason. Park especially has assets that can never be re-created. It's like the old Buffet comment on how much money it would take to outcompete Coke - no amount of money builds a true comparable to Hilton Hawaiian Village. I have also bought PPL. Credit concerns as their customers are large Canadian oil cos, but their pipelines will be needed even if all the producers take a trip through BK. I'm less enthusiastic about the chemical plant, but at this price not everything needs to go right. For the USD - the benefit of being the reserve currency is a huge and persistent investment surplus that finances a huge and persistent trade deficit. So Americans as a whole can consume more than they produce because their biggest export is reserve currency status fiat money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
