Thematic (Sector/Industry)

The interest shown by the richest and some of the most influential investors and the success of public-private partnerships in space programs are a reflection of an industry poised for strong growth over the next several years.  The space-tech landscape covers various technologies, but in this note, we focus only on the cosmonautic vehicle and propulsion systems. 
The current top players in propulsion are Ariane Group (<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/airbus-group-se" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:21380:1" rel="noopener">Airbus Group SE (AIR FP)</a> &amp; <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/safran-sa" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:21540:1" rel="noopener">Safran SA (SAF FP)</a> joint venture),<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/aerojet-rocketdyne-holdings" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:19120:1" rel="noopener">Aerojet Rocketdyne (AJRD US)</a>, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/boeing-co" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:11957:1" rel="noopener">Boeing Co (BA US)</a>, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/raytheon-company" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:6453:1" rel="noopener">Raytheon Company (RTN US)</a>, &amp; <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/united-technologies-corp" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:12750:1" rel="noopener">United Technologies (UTX US)</a>.

The two new preeminent private players SpaceX and Blue Origin don't feature in the top five players listed above, we discuss the reasons later in the report. 
Unlike e-commerce or software-driven startups, space vehicles and propulsion are relatively capital intensive. So unless the start-ups are led by founders with deep pockets (like Blue Origin) or founders with the ability to raise innovation capital (like SpaceX) it is best to stick to the established names and hope they evolve their business model to adjust for the democratization and marketization of the space industry. That said two private names that screen well are Redwire (vehicles) and Mountain Aerospace Research (propulsion).<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/avio-spa" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:34833:1" rel="noopener">Avio SPA (AVIO IM)</a>is a small-cap listed company in the top ten for propulsion

Technical and Quantitative Research

Vermilion Research

Vermilion’s objective is to deliver timely, actionable, and unique technical research to professional investors through the application of our various technical indicators.

Our research strategists seek to highlight securities which we believe are at major inflection points, based on our various technical and quantitative indicators, and offer asymmetric risk/return profiles. Our unique research methodology, centered on relative strength, enables our strategists to deliver superior investment recommendations.

Our process begins by organizing the universe of actively traded stocks into discrete sectors, then into industry groups. We then apply our technical and quantitative tools to identify developing price trends. Once attractive trends are identified within a selected sector or group, we screen for individual stocks which we believe offer the best risk/reward profile. We provide a historical perspective that often reveals, through our long-term charts, how price patterns often repeat themselves over time.

Technical Analysis

In this publication we outline our U.S. equity strategy, and provide a detailed analysis and actionable ideas within each of our 12 Sectors. The document contains links to each Sector, as well as our comments and important technical levels for major commodities, interest rates and world markets.

<div class="content-highlight"><h2>Solid demand and robust results from most firms not named GE.</h2></div><hr>Chief executive officers of some of the most well-known, global diversified industrial firms gathered in Coral Gables, Florida, this week to address analysts at the annual Electrical Products Group conference. While the conference lacked most of the heated exchanges of some years past, these multi-industrial leaders did touch on several broad themes, including robust demand leading to resilient organic growth, the muted impact from tariffs, as well as strong digitization trends sweeping the industry. We had the opportunity to press these leaders on several issues like portfolio optimization, both from the M&amp;A and divestiture side, as well as to query what factors lead to strong switching costs in the aftermarket, or how differentiated technology intangibles lead to securing a firm's installed equipment or software base. After reviewing our coverage, our current top picks among the diversified industrials we cover include <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/26784" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:26784:1">DowDuPont Inc (DWDP US)</a>, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/9642" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:9642:1">Emerson Electric Co (EMR US)</a>, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/6747" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:6747:1">Johnson Controls (JCI US)</a>, and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/14866" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:14866:1">3 M Co (MMM US)</a>.

Morningstar's Key Takeaways From the 2019 EPG Conference

As we write this, the tweet from President Trump regarding an imminent spike in tariffs on Chinese goods has caught financial markets around the world off guard. We believe the reactions are likely just a flash in the pan. This tweet, like many others, should be taken as nothing more than negotiation tactics lifted right out of a chapter from “The Art of the Deal”. We have been subjected to untold Tweets in the last few years and the reactions generally seem to have been about as long-lived as their character count. Despite the noise, the markets remain on a firm footing.  In our Macro Vision publication, we lay out our U.S. equity investment thesis and provide a technical appraisal of the market Sector by Sector, along with attractive investment opportunities within each.
