Q: I bought MSCI in 2018 mostly for its recurring revenue and ability to set its prices. It has been a steady grower. Do you expect this to continue or has it reached a plateau? Does it have meaningful competition yet? If I sell to buy an ARK fund, am I taking on a lot more risk? Thank you. Hi, I just asked a Q about MSCI. Another option I am considering is to sell MSCI to buy MCO to capture some higher growth that may happen in this investing climate. Should I switch or hold steady? Thanks.
Q: These stocks are somewhat different [financials and commercial services]. For a long-term investment, please advise top 2 for growth with rationale. Since all are priced for perfection, would plan to initiate positions only.
Q: hi, what is your opinion of MSCI?
It has a very enviable ROE (90+%) and the Profitability Ratios (all taken from your site) look very respectable.
PE might be a little high.
The ROE is generally the starting point for me to be interested in a stock (right or wrong :)).
Would you consider them the leaders in their respective space/sector? It seems like it might be a stock for good times and bad times.
(I stumbled upon this from a recent BNN suggestion/recommendation).
