What is your near- to mid-term outlook on companies you cover?
Positive on the near- to mid-term outlook. I personally believe that the share prices of some of the companies I cover have already discounted the most pessimistic outcomes. Moreover, on the macro front, oil prices are coming down and this will keep inflation in check, preventing a large rise in interest rate. I also believe that while the credit crisis may not be over, it has probably passed its worst point.
If you have two or three top Buy recommendations at this time, which stocks would they be?
I would recommend picking up Allianz (NYSE: AZ | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) and Aegon (NYSE: AEG), both insurance companies.
What should investors be mindful of before jumping into your industry?
Investors should be prepared for pain as the next 3-6 months can be quite bumpy and stock prices may go lower. However, I think the potential of investing now far outweighs the risk, especially if someone has a slightly longer-term horizon -- over one year.
