According to Joule Financial’s Quint Tatro, investors seeking portfolio hedging should not be further away from ongoing tariff volatility. The company’s founder and president joined NebraskaDailyNews’s “Electric Lunch” on Tuesday, sharing his thoughts about the Chinese e-commerce giant, and a pair of other market enablers. That’s what he has to say. Alibaba’s Alibaba shares soared more than 56% this year. Still, this recent rally didn’t stop Tatro, who took his tax-proof attribute as the purchase name. “Although we’ve seen runs on Alibaba recently, we’re still buyers here, and it’s a great way to avoid the tariffs we’ve seen in other departments,” Tatro said. “If you want to avoid tariffs, it’s easy to avoid tariffs just by going abroad. This is a good example. This is a company, and 80 to 90% of its revenue comes from China – less than 5% of its estimated to be from the United States. So, they’ll really be quarantined with any tariff talk.” Also, from a basic perspective, Alibaba still looks “incredible.” As evidence, Tatro noted that Alibaba holds $67 billion in cash and plans to invest more than $50 billion in artificial intelligence over the next three years. Exxon Mobil’s Exxon Mobil has accounted for 10% so far, but Tatro sees more room for gathering. “Even if the government wants to lower energy prices, we think deregulation will offset that,” he said. Tatro added that, like Alibaba, ExxonMobil is also a “basic champion.” “The earnings are estimated to be 18% next year, with little debt and $20 billion in cash, and you’ll get a 3.4% dividend (return) while you’re waiting,” he said. “The stock hasn’t really done anything in the last two years, and it’s just starting to get attention. We think it’s getting higher and higher here.” Snowflakes, eventually Tatro highlighted the cloud data repository Snowflakes as another hedge against tariff headwinds, as its business strategy is strong enough to compete in an environment that might squeeze others. “There are no tariff issues here,” he said. “They handle data in the cloud — if customers get hit and see prices go up, maybe there are some opportunities for tariffs.” Tatro warned that Snowflake shares have fallen 3% so far this year, but the stock looks high. “From a basic point of view, it doesn’t look cheap. It has high volumes, but we think the estimates are very low,” he said. “We think this stock is a great buying opportunity.” Get your ticket Pro Live on our NYSE! An uncertain market?
