Glencore: excellent performance, higher dividend
Glencore, one of the world’s largest diversified mining companies, released its H1 earnings report yesterday, which showed strong results. The company exceeded analysts’ expectations across all key financial lines, and a significant improvement is also evident on an annual basis. Higher commodity prices greatly contributed to this performance, and Glencore also took advantage of the trading opportunities created by the war in Iran. In light of this, management has increased the dividend and announced a share buyback program. For now, we are keeping the stock on our Equity Top Pick List.
Uber: Steady growth wasn't enough this time
Investors have slightly reassessed Uber’s investment case following the Q2 earnings report. Although the company continues to grow rapidly, the widespread adoption of self-driving technology can only yield positive results in the long term—and it requires significant capex. In addition, the acquisition of Delivery Hero will also cost a substantial amount, leaving less money available for share buybacks and potentially resulting in more modest cash generation. In our view, however, it is better for the company to reinvest the money into its operations rather than use it for share buybacks. As a result, shareholders should expect a longer-term investment horizon when it comes to Uber.
Significant uncertainty has been evident in the stock markets for weeks. The indices have begun a downward trend, and the charts are characterized by general weakness. This situation is not favorable for seeking momentum-driven opportunities for gains. The model may still yield results in such cases, but most of them indicate that it is already too late to enter the market or that one would have to take on excessive risk. In this market situation, it may be wise to wait and look for more favorable opportunities.

The momentum model supports the creation of a technical based stock list that helps to find shorter-term trading opportunities. The model can be used to identify stocks that show reversal signals following more sustained falls/underperformance. We examine one-year, six-month, three-month, one-month and five-day momentum values, which are used to rank the stocks under consideration. The higher a stock is ranked in the order, the better it technically performs relative to the others. The change in the ranking over time is used to determine the life cycle of the stock.
- In the first table, we collect the stocks that show the most attractive picture compared to the others in a given week based on momentum factors, of which those are also presented in a separate chart where a favourable situation can be identified based on additional technical analysis tools.
- In the second table, we list the stocks that are already worthy of being placed in watchlist status. They are not among the best performers, but they have the potential to improve and signal a turnaround in a few days or weeks.
- In the third table, we have also collected the more popular stocks to help identify their position in the momentum order.
The report shows the results of a technical - quantitative based stock screening, which does not examine the fundamental background/value of the companies. For this reason, risk management/position sizing rules should be designed accordingly.
