re UL - good presentation at the CAGNY conference
they issued 5 year bonds with 3.65% and 10 year bonds at a 4.8% coupon. Why do I care? it's a sign that UL is creditworthy. I like to compare the earnings yield of a stock to it's bond yield. if the earnings yield is lower than the bond yield, the investor relies on growth to make up for the shortfall relative to the bond owner. Likewise, if the earnings yield of a stock is higher than the bond yield it's a sign that the owner of the stock is well compensated for higher risk. Based on that UL with a 11PE and a 4.5% dividend yield is very undervalued.
