Today’s recommendation comes from two contributors and provides digital television entertainment in the United States and Latin America.
DIRECTV (DTV)
from PAD System Report
DIRECTV (DTV) reported record earnings for 2013, and the stock has rallied to an all-time high. The outlook is for further growth in 2014 and beyond.
The company continues to buy back shares, and this should help earnings grow at a double-digit clip for the next 3-5 years.
Some of the recent price gains may be a response to further consolidation in the cable TV business, which should benefit DTV as an alternative for those who want to “ditch cable.”
The possibility of a merger with direct competitor DISH Network provides some additional speculative juice to the stock price.
DTV is ranked “2” for year-ahead performance, and still has decent 3-5 year appreciation potential.
