I am not a financial advisor. I have never worked in a bank or anywhere remotely connected to finance and investing. However, unlike many blogs that make all sorts of investment recommendations - I only review stocks I have personally had the confidence to invest in.
Ezra's Stock of The Day: MaxiTRANS Industries Ltd (ASX: MXI)
5/3/19 Purchase price: 0.335
- 52 week range: 0.335 - 0.765

Purchase Rationale:
Recent price drop from the 0.50 range to 0.34.
- likely from announced drop in NPAT (7.8m down to 1.1m.) from purchase of cashflow generating asset (Trout River Australia which puts out ~2m yearly EBITDA). Also noted slight drop in sales: 214m down to 190m.
- This is still a profitable company. Fundamentals of business have not changed. Cashflow is essentially the same.
- Recent insider trading. 2x directors purchased at 0.52 and 0.61 less than six months ago.
- @0.34, the price to book ratio is very good: PB 0.5
Dividends easily covered by earnings (49% payout ratio)
- Div 10% (trailing)
- 6.5% projected (due to recent drop in earnings)
