BCB CYBER

Good Monday everyone and welcome to the BCB Cyber Series that takes on the tech stocks that can provide the cyber-fuel we need to pursue our digital wealth passions.

This week we are mixing things up a bit again. No doubt we are still hacking our stocks, but with tweaked-up tact! Instead of the same old long-winded analysis, we are going quick-hit style. Let’s face it, time is precious, your fuel should reflect that!

So with that in mind, we are blowing out three ways to play. In other words, our top three hacked reasons why we would, or would not invest in a given stock, in a given month. Picking it bear or bull with each instance. The choice from there is for each one of us to decide!

for Hercules Capital (HTGC)

Today is the Dividend Payer Edition, Finding Our Way to Passive Income

Before we get there though, as always, our reminder: with BCB Cyber we dig for the cyber-fuel we need, we are always working to make sure the best of the best, those monster companies in Tech, form a key portion of our portfolios.

For all these dividend-payer stocks, our core defining feature is that the forward dividend yield is well funded and over 3%! As always though, we dig deeper still, looking for those companies that are pushed by incredible disruptive tech with a great story, not to mention having a solid base in the numbers.

Before we dive too deep though, we strongly advocate that we don’t act solely on anyone else’s opinion, not even ours! Make sure we are all thinking for ourselves as self-definers and making our own decisions. In the end, the responsibility is on each one of us as individuals. So decide wisely! On to the story…

1. Dividend & Coverage

Right out of the gate we can see that Hercules is a fantastic opportunity for dividend-based passive income. Looking for that forward dividend yield of over 3% is no problem here as HTGC blows this one away at 7.50%! In addition, the payout ratio of 63.68 means that while not perfect, this dividend is well covered and looks to be stable.

So, on dividend status, we go…

2. Solid Footing in the Market?

Not only does Hercules jump out with a dividend worthy of Mt. Olympus itself, but this company proves to be very well run. With a solid ROA (return on assets) of over 5% and an operating margin of nearly 80%, the management team has things synced up like network time protocol.

Plus, we get this opportunity at a great value…

With a Forward P/E sticking under 13 and an actual Trailing P/E sitting well under 9 this thing is in deep value territory. They are making money and it doesn’t cost us a super premium to get in on the action.

So for footing, we go…

3. TECH Meet ESG

We can tell this is not the same old investment management kinda company. Hercules is built on innovation in tech and solid, environmentally sound practice. Investments are geared toward tech innovators and specifically weeds out big oil and the like, see below.

For Hercules, their path has been to build a strong credit history, quality returns, and a focus on companies with a solid environmental record.

So on tech focus and environmental impact, we go…

Full Disclosure & The Push

Remember, we are just like the masses, struggling to make ends meet and build our future. So, we start building and keep doing our homework. Adjusting and flexing over time, if we see a massive spike we may lighten our position some, but always with an eye to keeping our portfolio percentage in check and investing for the long term.

The same goes in reverse, so if tech takes a nosedive, you can bet we’ll be watching and looking to add. This is just what we need to start us on our journey toward cyberizing our lives.

BCB Cyber believes this is a company with the right stuff for the passive income side of our portfolio. Hercules simply seems a well-run, well-funded company that has its eye on tech and ESG concerns.

So for that, we are mega…

🐮

Our position, at BCB Cyber, holds a portfolio percentage of 0.62% as of 4/26/21 and we are definitely long. Plus, are definitely looking to add up to 2-3%.

As always, this is definitely a stock worth buying at the right price and one that BCB Cyber believes to be the right fuel for the fire at under $20 but definitely love it under $17.

As always, think for yourself, do your own homework, and cyberize your life with the best in disruptive tech. Learn more in our Wealth Section and dive deeper into Establishing the Baseline on BCB Cyber.com!

🐮 for SALESFORCE (CRM)

Today is MegaCap Day!

Before we get there though, as always, our reminder: with BCB Cyber we dig for the cyber-fuel we need, we are always working to make sure the best of the best, those monster companies in Tech, form a key portion of our portfolios.

For all these mega-cap stocks, just like Investopedia, our core defining feature is that the market cap is over $200 Billion! As always though, we dig deeper still, looking for those companies that are pushed by incredible disruptive tech with a great story, not to mention having a solid base in the numbers.

Before we dive too deep though, we strongly advocate that we don’t act solely on anyone else’s opinion, not even ours! Make sure we are all thinking for ourselves as self-definers and making our own decisions. In the end, the responsibility is on each one of us as individuals. So decide wisely!

Jumping right in now, we are on top of the three biggest reasons Salesforce (CRM) is a Stock 🐮.

1. Growth in a Growing Market

Salesforce, for a company with an over $200B revenue stream is still rocking massive growth. Don’t believe us, check out Yahoo! Finance on Salesforce Growth for yourself, but both this year and next year are pegged to be around 20% by analysts.

2. Solid, Cash-Money

Salesforce is built to succeed. In a jacked-up financial climate, business is cutthroat and Salesforce is prepared to ride. A solid mound of cash that better than covers debt, and more on the way in… a recipe for success!

3. Next-Gen Decision Automation

Artificial Intelligence actually at work in the marketplace and having an impact is one thing. A proven model that is building efficiencies is another. That’s what Einstein is and what it does: make businesses better, smarter, and more prepared.

Thanks Salesforce

BCB Cyber believes this is a company with the AI built to be a business enhancer. The better part is, when you dig in deep, you’ll discover for yourself just what a complete solution Salesforce brings to its customers. However, this is definitely a stock worth buying at the right price and one that BCB Cyber believes to be the right fuel for the fire! We are not currently invested but would love to be and we are looking for the right entry.
