Hello everyone,

At the end of last year, I published my "top picks list" here, in which I presented the stocks that I have put on my watchlist for 2024 and am also partially invested in (unfortunately not in all of them 😁).

At the time, I had compiled a list of stocks recommended by well-known analysts and put them through "my requirements profile". The original 100 stock ideas then became the list below. A year later, I'm looking back. This was the performance:

🟢 $TMUS (+1,51%) +1,63%

🟢 Sterling Infrastructure: +100.68%

🟢 $CRM (-0,02%) Salesforce: +28.14%

🟢 $RR. (+0,48%) Rolls-Royce: +92.56%

🟢 $MOD (+0,04%) Modine Manufacturing: +98.68%

🟠 $MHO (+0,02%) M/I Homes: -1.46%

🟢 $META (-0,41%) Meta: +68.52%

🟢 $MCD (+0,06%) McDonalds: +0.14%

🟢 $MA (+0,68%) Mastercard: +26.26%

🟢 $ISP (+0,05%) Intesa Sanpaolo: +45.44%

🟢 $ISRG (+0,98%) Intuitive Surgical: +59.62%

🟠 $GCT Gigacloud Technologies: -0.66%

🟢 $FDX (-0,09%) FedEx: +11.11%

🟠 $LPG (+0,85%) Dorian LPG: -47.70%

🟢 $COST (+0,23%) Costco: +43.34%

🟢 $US1011372067 Boston Scientific: +63.23%

🟢 $BKNG (-0,31%) Booking: +44.19%

🟠 $ABX (+0,8%) Barrick Gold: -14.73%

🟢 $APP (-0,16%) Applovin: +753.81%

🟢 $GOOG (+0,35%) Alphabet: +39.28%

🟢 $AMZN (+0,1%) Amazon: +48,05%

🟢 $ANF (+0,03%) Abercrombie & Fitch: +69.99%

As you can see, my stock ideas have done quite well. $APP (-0,16%) with +753.81% was of course a big hit. $DORIAN With -47.70% it was a pipe-dropper.

🔥 I'm currently working on my top picks list for 2025. If you're interested, I'll be happy to share it again and put it up for discussion!

💬 What were your top picks in 2024? And what were the losers? I will reply to every comment and give you a brief assessment.

MTU Aero Engines presents outlook for 2025 + T-Mobile was heavily hacked + Strong price target for Siemens Energy AG

The engine manufacturer MTU $MTX (-0,15%) has postponed its capital market day planned for Friday to next year in light of the change of CEO. CEO Lars Wagner will move to Airbus at the end of his term of office in 2026 and take over the management of the commercial aircraft division. However, Wagner and CFO Peter Kameritsch intend to present the outlook for 2025 in a call on Friday. In the current year, MTU Aero Engines aims to break the 1 billion euro mark for adjusted EBIT, one year earlier than originally planned. Sales are expected to be between 7.3 and 7.5 billion euros, and the Group has previously targeted 8 billion euros for 2025. The analysts at Jefferies are forecasting sales and EBIT growth of around 15% with stable margins.

Postpaid service revenue grew 8% to USD 13.3 billion. Net income increased by 43% year-on-year to USD 3.1 billion, while diluted earnings per share (EPS) also increased by 43% to USD 2.61.

Balance sheet analysis: At the end of the third quarter of 2024, T-Mobile's net debt, excluding tower obligations, amounted to USD 72.6 billion. The company maintained a last twelve months (LTM) net debt to core adjusted EBITDA ratio of 2.3x, indicating a stable debt position.

Income statement: The income statement shows a significant increase in net income to $3.1 billion, driven by higher services and equipment revenue. Core adjusted EBITDA increased by 9% year-on-year to USD 8.2 billion, indicating improved operational efficiency.

Cash flow analysis: Net cash flow from operating activities increased by 16% year-on-year to USD 6.1 billion. Adjusted free cash flow also recorded a significant increase of 29% year-on-year, reaching USD 5.2 billion.

Key figures and profitability: Net profit margin improved significantly, underscoring the company's ability to efficiently convert revenues into profits. The core adjusted EBITDA margin amounted to 49.2%, indicating strong profitability.

Segment analysis: T-Mobile's postpaid sector continued to perform well, with 1.6 million new customers added. In contrast, the prepaid sector showed a weaker performance with only 24,000 new customers.

Competitive analysis: T-Mobile maintained its leadership position in network performance, which was recognized by third-party awards. The company's strategic focus on customer-centric network improvements and 5G expansion positions it well against the competition.

Forecasts and management comments: The company has raised its 2024 guidance on several metrics, including postpaid net additions and core adjusted EBITDA. Management remains optimistic about future growth driven by network improvements and customer acquisition strategies.

Risks and opportunities: The main risks include potential regulatory changes and competitive pressure in the mobile market. Opportunities exist in the expansion of the 5G network and in increasing market share in the high-speed internet sector.

Summary and strategic implications: T-Mobile's strong financial performance and strategic initiatives in network build-out and customer acquisition are expected to drive future growth. The company's focus on enhancing its 5G capabilities and customer experience is likely to strengthen its competitive position. However, it will need to overcome regulatory challenges and maintain customer growth to secure its market leadership. With my investment through $DTE (+0,96%) I am invested in T-Mobile and what can I say. The growth carrier of Telekom delivers.

• Interest expense: Interest expense for the quarter was significant and had a negative impact on net profit.
• Prepaid churn: Prepaid churn remained relatively high at 2.78% but showed a slight improvement of 3 basis points year-on-year.
• Use of the shareholder repayment program: There is a risk that the approved amount for the 2023-2024 shareholder repayment program may not be fully utilized, which could adversely affect shareholder value.
