TOP PICK
Brookfield Asset Management (A) (BAM.A-T)
August 11, 2020
Will benefit from a low interest environment. Their clients include pension and sovereign wealth funds which seek income. Brookfield invests in hard assets, infrastructure and renewables (see those stocks). Hard assets like bridges and tolls generate cash. They could swoop up government assets for sale to reduce government deficits. Their private equity division has a fine, long-term track record. They bought Oak Tree Capital last fall which buys distressed credits, which Brookfield can take advantage now. She likes the alternate asset managment space. With the the current 10% pullback YTD, BAM is now a good entry point for long-term. (Analysts’ price target is $39.92)
