Oaktree Capital Management recently disclosed its portfolio updates for the fourth quarter of 2020, which ended on Dec. 31.
Founded by Howard Marks (Trades, Portfolio) and several fellow investors in 1995, Oaktree Capital Management is a global investing firm that specializes in alternative and credit strategies. The Los Angeles-based firm now has over 39 portfolio managers and 950 employees in offices around the globe. Marks serves as co-chairman (along with Bruce Karsh) and chief financial officer. The firm's core investment philosophy has six tenets: risk control, consistency, market inefficiency, specialization, bottom-up analysis and disavowal of market timing.
One strategy to unearth potential value opportunities is to look at stocks with an attractive forward price-earnings ratio.
Thus, investors may want to have a look at the following three stocks, as they have a forward price-earnings ratio standing below the S&P 500's historical average of 15. Estimates of future earnings are based on data from Morningstar analysts.
Vale SA
The first stock that qualifies is Vale SA (VALE), a Brazilian producer and global seller of iron ore and iron ore pellets to steel companies.
Vale SA has a forward price-earnings ratio of 7.51 (versus the industry median of
When investors choose stocks whose market capitalization is more than $2 billion and whose price-book ratio stands below 1.5, they have a higher chance of discovering value stocks.
Thus, value investors may want to have a look at the following securities as they meet the above-listed criteria.
Perspecta
The first company that meets the above-listed criteria is Perspecta Inc (PRSP).
Shares of the Chantilly, Virginia-based provider of enterprise information technology services to government customers in the U.S. traded at $18.40 per unit at close on April 7 for a market capitalization of roughly $2.97 billion.
The price-book ratio of 1.36
At first glance, the investment styles of billionaire gurus Warren Buffett (Trades, Portfolio) and Carl Icahn (Trades, Portfolio) could not be more different.
Buffett prefers a slow and steady, value-orientated investment approach, while Icahn is an aggressive activist investor who will initiate a few significant positions and then drive for change at the companies he owns.
That being said, you can make a strong argument that both investors do follow a similar investment style because they both buy what they perceive to be undervalued businesses.
The difference is, Buffett rarely gets involved in unlocking
Investing in precious metals can be difficult as the performance of companies in this sector is often highly correlated to the price of the metal.
The precious metal investors are likely most familiar with is gold. Investors looking for access to gold can either purchase shares of an exchange-traded fund that tracks the price of gold, such as the SPDR Gold Trust (GLD), or buy shares of gold mining companies.
Gold has actually outperformed the S&P 500 this year. The SPDR Gold Trust has gained 18.6% since the start of 2019, while the index is up 13.2%.
While there are
Ken Heebner (Trades, Portfolio)’s Capital Growth Management (CGM) disclosed this month its top three sells were Vale SA (VALE), Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. (RCL) and Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. (NCLH), while its top three buys were Companhia Siderurugica Nacional (SID), Valero Energy Corp. (VLO) and PagSeguro Digital ltd. (PAGS). The top three sells outweigh the top three buys in terms of portfolio impact.
A growth-oriented investor, Heebner has historically made bold and swift sector calls. Additionally, the co-founder of CGM is not afraid to make large bets based on his convictions.
If investors want to find more value opportunities, they should look for stocks that double the return of the 20-year, high-quality market corporate bond. These bonds represent corporate loans issued by triple-A, double-A and single-A rated companies.
The most recent observation of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis indicates the monthly average spot rate of the 20-year bond is 4.43%.
The following stocks have a price-earnings ratio, which is the inverse of the earnings yield, of less than 11.3 as of April 12.
Further, the selected stocks have a good financial situation mainly resulting from the return-on-invested-capital ratio

Jacquie McNish's "The Big Score: Robert Friedland, INCO and the Voisey's Bay Hustle"Â chronicles the discovery, exploratory process and ultimate sale of the largest mineral deposit found in Canada in 40 years. Voisey’s Bay mine is an open-pit nickel mine in Labrador, 21 miles southwest of Nain and 50 miles northwest of Natuashish. It is not just a theoretical read as there are three publicly-traded companies involved with the mine: Vale SA (VALE), Royal Gold Inc. (RGLD) and Altius Minerals Corp. (TSX:ALS) (ATUSF).
Royal Gold and Altius Minerals are united in the Labrador Nickel Royalty
Vale SA (VALE), the $43.4 billion Brazilian miner, reported strong business recovery from the recent turmoil in the mining industry with 59.6% revenue growth to $8.5 billion and 40% profit growth to $2.5 billion in the first quarter – a 29.2% margin vs. 33.3% in the same period a year earlier.

Despite many analysts suggesting to invest in gold stocks, there are some investors who suggest staying out of the gold industry because they prefer to hold a defensive strategy, waiting for the cloud of uncertainty that prevails in the financial markets to dissipate before making their next investment decision.
One of these investors is Vince Lanci, the owner of Echobay Partners LCC, a private fund management company, and fund manager with several years of investing experience in precious metals and energy.
Lanci said to Kitco.com that he “wouldn’t be surprised to see gold spike if there is a
As top-down investors, we must be sensitive not only to country-level top -down developments but also to exposure to global top -down drivers. One of the most important ones for emerging- market equities is movement in the U.S. dollar. As the world’s key trading currency, the dollar is the funding denomination for many portfolio investments. This means that a stronger dollar is often linked to lower levels of risk tolerance in global markets as investors withdraw from international investments, including in emerging markets. A stronger dollar is also often linked to weaker commodity prices, as much of the end demand

After staging a terrific recovery, iron ore miners have had a rough couple of weeks and Vale (VALE) is no exception to this trend. That being said, Vale’s quarterly performance has outperformed all expectations; if that continues, the stock could start rallying again.
In the most recent quarter, Vale reported earnings per share of 21 cents, 3 cents better than the estimates. The company’s revenue came in at $6.63 billion, beating the estimates by $140 million. Despite the beat, revenue was down over 4% on a year-over-year basis.
The company reported superior results primarily on the back of its Ferrous

Iron minors have enjoyed a bubble-like rally in the last few months. The rally was not driven by fundamentals, however, but by hype. With iron prices moving down again, iron miners have started giving back the gains and I expect the bearishness to continue.
BHP Billiton (BHP) is one such stock, and investors should use the recent surge to sell the stock.
Debt situation
Samarco was a joint venture of Vale (VALE) and BHP Billition that ended in a disaster, literally as well as figuratively for both the companies. The maximum penalty that BHP may have to recompense should be
Don’t believe the analyst hype. Despite both BofA Merrill Lynch and Goldman Sachs upgrading Joy Global (JOY) stock in recent weeks, the long-term outlook for the coal industry is bleak. It might not go to zero, but its size and use as an energy source is dwindling.
The company’s new initiatives – direct service, hard rock and industrial minerals, reduced capacity, inventory reductions, share buybacks, new product development and high-growth markets – may prove effective but in the end will likely fail to produce value for shareholders.
Some believe that the recent coal bankruptcies from
