What's Next: Banco De Chile's Earnings Preview

After a rocky start to the month that led to a global market rout, two major inflation data seemed to have steadied the ship as the broader equity markets inched closer to all-time highs reached in mid-July. While the producer price index (a measure of wholesale prices) was up 0.1% last month, the consumer price index (a broad-based measure of prices for goods and services) increased 0.2%. This put the 12-month inflation rate at 2.9% &mdash; the lowest since March 2021.
While the data gave an uncertain market some direction after the erratic movement last week, it also portrayed the resilience of the economy. This, in turn, led to optimism about a possible rate cut by the Federal Reserve next month, triggering an uptrend for the stocks. With a better-than-expected 2.8% annualized GDP growth in the second quarter and solid labor market conditions, it appeared that the economy was back on the growth track, cooling recessionary fears.
As investors employ a wait-and-see approach in a classic example of &quot;backing and filling&quot; in the market, they can benefit from &quot;cash cow&quot; stocks that garner higher returns. However, identifying cash-rich stocks alone does not make for a solid investment proposition unless it is backed by attractive efficiency ratios like return on equity (ROE). A high ROE ensures that the company is reinvesting cash at a high rate of return. Upbound Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/upbd#NASDAQ">UPBD</a>), The AES Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aes#NYSE">AES</a>), Arch Capital Group Ltd. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/acgl#NASDAQ">ACGL</a>), PulteGroup, Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/phm#NYSE">PHM</a>) and Banco de Chile (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bch#NYSE">BCH</a>) are some of the stocks with high ROE to profit from.
<h3>ROE: A Key Metric</h3>
ROE = Net Income/Shareholders&#39; Equity
ROE helps investors distinguish profit-generating companies from profit burners and is useful in determining the financial health of a company. In other words, this financial metric enables investors to identify companies that diligently deploy cash for higher returns.
Moreover, ROE is often used to compare the profitability of a company with other firms in the industry &mdash; the higher, the better. It measures how well a company is multiplying its profits without investing new equity capital and portrays management&#39;s efficiency in rewarding shareholders with attractive risk-adjusted returns.
<h3>Screening Parameters</h3>
In order to shortlist stocks that are cash-rich with high ROE, we have added Cash Flow greater than $1 billion and ROE greater than X-Industry as our primary screening parameters. In addition, we have taken a few other criteria into consideration to arrive at a winning strategy.
Price/Cash Flow lesser than X-Industry: This metric measures how much investors pay for $1 of free cash flow. A lower ratio indicates that investors need to pay less for a better cash flow-generating stock.
Return on Assets (ROA) greater than X-Industry: This metric determines how much profit a company earns for every dollar of asset, which includes cash, accounts receivable, property, equipment, inventory and furniture. The higher the ROA, the better it is for the company.
5-Year EPS Historical Growth greater than X-Industry: This criterion indicates that continued earnings momentum has translated into solid cash strength.
Zacks Rank less than or equal to 2: Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy) stocks are known to outperform irrespective of the market environment.
Here are five of the 11 stocks that qualified the screening:
Upbound Group: Headquartered in Plano, TX, Upbound Group (formerly Rent-A-Center, Inc.) is a leading lease-to-own provider with operations in the United States, Puerto Rico and Mexico.

Buy 5 High ROE Stocks as Low Inflation Data Steadies Market

The broader U.S. equity markets witnessed a modest uptrend over the past few trading days, buoyed by optimism related to rate cuts driven by easing inflationary pressures and solid economic metrics that portrayed the resilience of the economy. In addition, a relatively healthy earnings performance from hitherto reported companies ignited hopes of a possible rate cut as early as September.
The markets now await the Federal Reserve&#39;s update on the monetary policy as it wraps up its policy meeting later today. Although the Fed is widely expected to keep the benchmark funds rate steady in the 5.25% to 5.5% range, investors are seeking cues for probable cuts in the near future. With a better-than-expected 2.8% annualized GDP growth in the second quarter and a robust labor market scenario, the conditions appear primed to heed the broader sentiments.
As investors employ a wait-and-see approach in a classic example of &quot;backing and filling&quot; in the market, they can benefit from &quot;cash cow&quot; stocks that garner higher returns. However, identifying cash-rich stocks alone does not make for a solid investment proposition unless it is backed by attractive efficiency ratios like return on equity (ROE). A high ROE ensures that the company is reinvesting cash at a high rate of return. Best Buy Co., Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bby#NYSE">BBY</a>), The AES Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aes#NYSE">AES</a>), Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/lmt#NYSE">LMT</a>), PulteGroup, Inc.

What Happened: Bitcoin, which dropped to as low as $65,000 overnight, surged during much of the U.S. day, reaching a high point of over $69,000 at one stage.
&#8220;If we continue to see inflation moving sideways, then that would make me question whether we [need] to do those rate cuts at all,&#8221; said Kashkari during a virtual event on LinkedIn.
Given that Kashkari has been one of the more hawkish members of the Fed, his comments shouldn&#8217;t have come as a complete surprise, but they prompted a swift downturn in stocks. Furthermore, his remarks contradicted statements from Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, who expressed his ongoing anticipation of rate cuts at some point this year.

Analyst Notes: Cryptocurrency analyst Michael Van de Poppe suggests that Bitcoin has been trading within a range for over three weeks.
"Breaking through $69K and we&#8217;ll get an ATH test, but ultimately the volatility is going down and we&#8217;re likely rotating towards altcoins."

Pseudonymous analyst TechDev said Bitcoin could be preparing for a significant breakout, citing a combination of aligning indicators.
TechDev believes that the Wyckoff accumulation schematic points to a bullish trend for digital assets. The Wyckoff accumulation schematic indicates potential trend reversals from bearish to bullish in cryptocurrency markets, suggesting a period of accumulation before an upward price movement.

According to Rekt Capital, Bitcoin is currently going through a correction phase in anticipation of the upcoming halving, set to take place in a little over two weeks.
Rekt Capital <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Szyf8LsmFwM">said </a>"So this pre-halving retrace began around 30 days before the halving and so we are in the thick of the danger zone…Because we're still in the danger zone anything can still go. This is still volatility that's supposed to get us closer to establishing a re-accumulation range at these highs. So any volatility around this danger zone [between $73,800 and mid $60,000s] is still all within historical norms."
The analyst also mentioned that it&#8217;s &#8220;very unlikely that we&#8217;re going to see a 40% pullback in this cycle for Bitcoin."
