Description

On this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan and Corey are joined by Joe Austin. Joe is an editor and senior analyst at our corporate affiliate Chaikin Analytics. He spent four decades in the financial-services industry and now joins the podcast to share some of his insights and future outlooks.

Joe kicks off the show by outlining his background in finance and how he got involved at Chaikin Analytics. He delves into the usefulness of the Power Gauge, how he combines the tool with fundamentals to make stock-picking decisions, and what specific factors he finds most important. Next, Joe talks about artificial intelligence ("AI"). He says you can invest in the technology either by buying the companies developing AI or by buying non-AI companies that are implementing the technology to improve their businesses. Joe prefers the latter. He notes that certain industry groups are integrating AI more than others, and those would give you the biggest areas of opportunity. (0:38 )

Next, Joe discusses the data sets which AI uses and why the companies with the best data will win out in the end. He gives medical-technology company Veeva Systems and tool manufacturer Snap-on as two such examples. Joe then shares how macro influences affect his investing process, what he learned about the insurance industry from working in it, and one particular company he believes will do well in the long term. (17:58 )

Finally, Joe highlights specific industries he stays away from, the importance of understanding where you went wrong with an investment, and how he decides when to sell a stock. He notes that stocks that rise the most tend to fall the most... and that having fresh capital to use on new ideas is crucial. And he reminds listeners that having a defensive strategy is often more important than having an offensive strategy. (36:50 )
