“U.S. renewables utility Brookfield Renewable was another detractor. Brookfield Renewable is a pure-play renewables operator and developer headquartered in Canada and domiciled in the U.S., focused on international hydro, solar, wind and storage technology. As more private and public institutions announce ambitious carbon reduction initiatives, Brookfield Renewable’s globally diversified, multi-technology renewables business makes it an attractive partner. Its development pipeline stands at 18,000 megawatts, providing confidence the company can meet its targeted double-digit cash flow growth through to 2025. Shares moderated amid expectations of rising bond yields, and a cool-off on the green trade.”

In its Q1 2021 investor letter, ClearBridge Investments, an asset management firm, highlighted a few stocks and Honeywell International Inc. was one of them. Here is what the fund said:

“The portfolio’s quality bias and valuation discipline have generated compelling returns over time with typically strong relative results in more challenging environments as it did through the first three quarters of 2020. However, that same quality bias tends to create a more challenging relative performance environment for the Strategy during periods of sharp economic acceleration, which tend to benefit stocks that are more commodity linked or of lower quality. This has been the case during the vaccine- and stimulus-driven rally experienced late last year and during the most recent quarter. Sectors that lagged in the quarter included industrials, Honeywell International Inc. also lagged in the quarter after previously generating strong returns over extended periods.”

7. Costco Wholesale Corporation (NASDAQ:COST)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 55

Costco Wholesale Corporation (NASDAQ:COST) owns and runs membership warehouses. It is one of the favorite retail stocks among hedge funds. At the end of the third quarter of 2021, 55 hedge funds in the database of Insider Monkey held stakes worth $4.39 billion in Costco Wholesale Corporation, up from 54 in the preceding quarter worth $4.32 billion.

In its Q1 2021 investor letter, Ensemble Capital, an asset management firm, highlighted a few stocks and Costco Wholesale Corporation was one of them. Here is what the fund said:

“We saw these dynamics at play in the Fund. Some of the worst-performing stocks this quarter were among our best performers in Q1 2020. Another example was the market’s reaction to Costco Wholesale Corporation (1.5% weight in the Fund) during the quarter. From December 31, 2020 to March 8th, Costco shares declined 17% and dropped below their pre-pandemic high. The common rationale offered by sell-side analysts was that Costco would face difficult one-year “comps” (i.e. same-store sales, which compare sales from stores open for at least a year). Because so many consumers rushed to Costco ahead of shelter-in-place and subsequent quarantines, it will be harder for Costco to meaningfully beat those results when compared year-over-year. That may indeed be true, but we struggle to understand how Costco could be “less valuable” than it was a year earlier when it concurrently increased its membership base by over 7%, or 3.9 million members. With membership renewal rates around 90%, the vast majority of the new customers Costco brought in last year will be around for years to come.

Analysts also complained about Costco Wholesale Corporation raising its already industry-leading minimum wage to $16/hour, with an average “effective” pay of $23-$24/hour when you include overtime and bonuses. Costco paying its employees “too much” has been a common gripe of Wall Street analysts for at least two decades. While the extra pay does indeed impact short-term profit margins, it also serves to make Costco more durable, as its flywheel (i.e. a virtuous value cycle) starts with happy employees. A 20-year chart of Costco stock price is evidence that this strategy works and we’re confident that it will continue to work.”

6. CVS Health Corporation (NYSE:CVS)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 61

In its Q1 2021 investor letter, Vulcan Value Partners, an asset management firm, highlighted a few stocks and CVS Health Corporation was one of them. Here is what the fund said:

“We sold our position in CVS Health Corp. to allocate capital to companies with larger margins of safety. During the five years that we owned CVS Health Corp., the company acquired Aetna. At the time, we also owned Aetna, and we believed the combination of the two companies would create additional value. After the acquisition, its business performance has been disappointing. We reevaluated our assumptions and determined its value has not grown.”

In its Q2 2021 investor letter, Polen Capital, an asset management firm, highlighted a few stocks and Abbott Laboratories was one of them. Here is what the fund said:

“Abbott Laboratories was the lone detractor in the quarter as the company preannounced that revenue and earnings this year would be below their previous guidance. We still expect the company to grow earnings more than 20% this year and continue double-digit earnings growth in the years to come. However, weakness in COVID-19 testing revenue is primarily responsible for the guidance reduction. Abbott is a leader in multiple types of COVID-19 diagnostic tests, and the largely successful vaccine rollout globally is leading to less COVID testing than the company expected. Two years ago, these tests obviously accounted for $0 in revenue but recently accounted for nearly $10 billion in annualized revenues as of the fourth quarter of 2020. We have expected COVID testing revenues to decline sequentially every quarter and eventually level out at less than $1 billion per year. We are not surprised by the current reality, but the decline has been more rapid than what management had expected.

Abbott is a diversified medical products company with likely strong growth to come from its core businesses outside of COVID testing— our investment thesis was not dependent on pandemic related revenue. While the reduction in guidance is atypical for Abbott’s conversative management team, we do not believe it changes our long-term growth assumptions or the investment case in Abbott.”

3. Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (NYSE:BMY)

In its Q4 2020 investor letter, Wedgewood Partners, an asset management firm, highlighted a few stocks and Bristol-Myers Squibb Company was one of them. Here is what the fund said:

“Bristol-Myers Squibb recently reported accelerating sales as much of the medical services industry returned to work. The Company continues to expect double-digit earnings growth over the next few years, driven by existing drugs, in addition to a broad pipeline of new drugs and indications. While the market remains fixated on a couple of patent expirations that could occur over the next several years, we think this is well-known at this point, yet the market still undervalues a couple of key acquisitions the Company has made in the past few years, particularly Celgene, which was acquired for a song.”

2. Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 120

Apple Inc. makes and sells consumer electronics. The company was one of the only stock purchases of Schrier in recent months, according to the latest data. A PTR from November 2021 shows that the lawmaker bought Apple Inc. stock worth between $250,000 and $500,000 on October 28.

1. Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOGL)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 195
