That’s especially true when the markets are hotter than a pistol — which they are in 2021.\nAs of July 14, theS&amp;P 500was up 18.31% year-to-date (YTD). That’s an annualized return of almost 34%. Since 1928, the index has done better on justsix occasions, the last being in 1995.\nUltimately, I want to give suggestions that can make money for readers over the long haul and not just the remaining five months of this year.\nWith that in mind, a strategy based on 10 momentum stocks could backfire if the markets cool off in the second half. But on the other hand, if I go with 10 tried-and-true stocks and the markets stay hot, you’re likely to underperform relative to the index.\nTherefore, I’ll try to have my cake and eat it too. These 10 stocks have high free cash flow (FCF) yields and are trading at or near the index’s YTD return:\n<ul>\n <li>BHP Group(NYSE:BHP)</li>\n <li>ViacomCBS(NASDAQ:VIAC)</li>\n <li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/COLM\">Columbia Sportswear</a>(NASDAQ:COLM)</li>\n <li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NOMD\">Nomad</a> Foods(NYSE:NOMD)</li>\n <li>TechnipFMC(NYSE:FTI)</li>\n <li>Orix Corporation(NYSE:IX)</li>\n <li>Jazz Pharmaceuticals(NASDAQ:JAZZ)</li>\n <li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DOOR\">Masonite</a> International(NYSE:DOOR)</li>\n <li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PGRE\">Paramount</a> Group(NYSE:PGRE)</li>\n <li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/G\">Genpact</a>(NYSE:G)</li>\n</ul>\nStocks to Buy: BHP Group (BHP)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1c70c5eff19fa07e4f7185371f1e8225\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SSTK\">Shutterstock</a>\nAs with all my stock galleries, I try to provide sector diversification. I would like to load up on stocks in industries I enjoy, such as the consumer cyclical or consumer defensive sectors.But as my dad used to say — and he was generally an optimist — “Life is to be endured.” So, I endure by selecting a materials stock.\nBHP Group is the world’s largest mining conglomerate. Based in Australia, it has a YTD return of 15%and anFCF yield of 5.6%. As for BHP stock’s rating, of the15 analysts that cover it, nine rate it as either a buy or overweight. Only two rate it as underweight or an outright sell.\nFor the trailing 12 months (TTM) ended March 31, BHP had $46.3 billion in revenue. That’s higher than it’s been at any point in the past three years. Over the same period, the company has seen $16.6 billion in operating income.\nI consider companies with FCF yields between 4% and 8% to be very attractive long-term investments.\nViacomCBS (VIAC)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/28fb8328bef5080ef0c719248af09424\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Jer123 / Shutterstock.com\nThe media conglomerate’s stock has gathered speed in the past three months. In that time, VIAC shares have risen 4%in response to rumorsthatthe company may be the subject of a bidby<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CMCSA\">Comcast</a>(NASDAQ:CMCSA).\nThe main attraction for Comcast would be ViacomCBS’ Paramount+ streaming service. The telecommunications company has its own streaming unit, Peacock, as part of its NBCUniversal media conglomerate. Combining both services would put Comcast in a good position to capture the coveted number-three spot in the lucrative streaming industry.\nParamount+ is adding several itemsto its streaming repertoire this summer. Most notably, the service will stream hundreds of live soccer-related events like theMen’s Concacaf World Cup Qualifiers.\nTom Ryan, president and chief executive officer of ViacomCBS Streaming, said, “The breadth and depth of premium feature films and exclusive series coming to the service further strengthens our position in the market as a premium entertainment destination and, by offering this compelling content portfolio at an all-new low cost, makes us even more accessible to a wide consumer audience.”\nWhen you consider the boostDisney(NYSE:DIS) has gotten from Disney+, ViacomCBS executives have good reason to be excited.\nStocks to Buy: Columbia Sportswear (COLM)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c5e42d506a4b78d60fa9f91be1130e03\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Ekaterina_Minaeva / Shutterstock.com\nOn average, the12 analysts covering COLM stockrate it overweight with a12-month target priceof $127. That’s 28% upside at current prices.\nIn April, COLM stock hit its all-time high of $114.98. Up nearly 25% over the past year,CEO Timothy Boyle must be very happy with its run of late. Boyle’s shares are now worth$2.3 billion.\nThe board of directors could use a few more women — of the nine members,just two are female. It could also benefit from a few younger members, as the average director’s age is 68. But there’s no doubt that they are a group of very talented individuals.\nNormally I’m not a fan of boards that are particularly ancient, especially when it comes to consumer-facing products such as apparel and footwear. But in Columbia’s case, the proof is in the pudding.\nThe company has managed to produce returns for shareholders in recent years. I see good things happening in the long term for investors in COLM stock.\nNomad Foods (NOMD)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8474d9b575d131a702eda61e3e638d51\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: defotoberg / Shutterstock.com\nIf you haven’t heard of Nomad, it’s thelargest frozen food companyin Europe. In the U.S., the company is the third-largest of its kind, withNestle(OTCMKTS:NSRGY) andConagra Brands(NYSE:CAG) in the top two spots.\nIn March, Nomad announced that it will acquireFortenova’s frozen food business. The company’s Ledo and Frikom brands are well-known to consumers in Central and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EML\">Eastern</a> Europe. Nomad paid615 million Euros($726 million) for the frozen food group. That’s less than 10 times the group’s adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA).\nNomad’s <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GNBC\">Green</a> Cuisine brand is Europe’s fastest-growing frozen meat-free brand. In 2020, its retail sales grew by 299%. That’s almost five times faster thanBeyond Meat(NASDAQ:BYND), which saw 65% growth in the same timeframe.\nAnother reason to like Nomad is thatSir Martin <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FELE\">Franklin</a> owns 7.4%of its stock. Franklin is acompany builderwith a success rate matched by few others.\nAs for the analysts’ perspective,10 cover NOMD stock,with nine rating it a buy and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> rating it overweight. They list a median target price of $28.66. I think we’ll see a bunch of revisions for this stock in the next few months.\nNomad’s TTM FCF is $410.6 million. Based on a market cap of $4.9 billion, it has an FCF yield of 8.4%. I consider that to be value territory.\nStocks to Buy: TechnipFMC (FTI)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f2a8dab1d12287b308b35e69ab19e35e\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: abu emran / Shutterstock.com\nIf we were talking about weaknesses in stock coverage, the energy sector would be at the top of the list. I don’t see the point in covering businesses that probably won’t exist in a decade or two.\nTechnipFMC was created during theJanuary 2017 mergerof FMC Technologies and Technip. The combination created a global leader in subsea and surface technologies. TechnipFMC also provides services to oil and gas exploration and production companies.\nIn the first quarter of 2021, the company’s subsea operations generated revenue of$1.39 billion, an 11% increase from last year. TechnipFMC’s subsea operations account for 85% of its overall revenue and has a backlog of $6.86 billion.\nIn 2021, the company expects to see revenue of at least $6.05 billion with an EBITDA margin in the low double digits.\nIn Q1, it had an FCF of $137 million. For the TTM ended March 31, its FCF was$620 million, implying an FCF yield of&nbsp; 18%.\nI’m not a fan of energy stocks, but it’s hard not to notice FTI stock’s value at current prices.\nOrix Corporation (IX)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/46286e26974bf56d8192df56ee98f9fb\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: shutterstock.com/CC7\nIt’s always nice to be able to include a stock that I’ve previously recommended. In the case of Orix, I suggested investors take a look at the Japanese diversified financial services companyin May 2020.\nI recommended Orix partially because of its U.S. division, which has its hands in all kinds of financial pies. It manages more than$70 billion in assets.\nFast forward to today, and IX stock is up 48% over the past 14 months. Its momentum doesn’t look like it will slow in the second half of 2021.\nI believe this despite the fact that fiscal 2021 wasn’t one of the company’s best years on record. On the top line,revenue grew by less than 1%to 2.293 trillion Japanese Yen ($20.7 billion). Its pre-tax income fell 30% to 287.5 billion Japanese Yen ($2.6 billion).\nThere are a lot of moving parts in Orix’s business. For example, Orix USA’s revenue was up 2% in 2021, but its segment profits fell 23%. The latter decline was primarily due to the sale of equity ownership in<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HLI\">Houlihan Lokey</a>(NYSE:HLI) in fiscal 2020.\nI suggest you visit Orix’s various sites, including its investor relations page. It’s a diamond in the rough.\nStocks to Buy: Jazz Pharmaceuticals (JAZZ)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b2efda67e191862b624731ac8e1ec9f3\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Michael Vi / Shutterstock.com\nIf there’s one thing I like to see from most non-financial stocks, it’s strong free cash flow.\nJazz Pharmaceuticals, a developer of medicines for neuroscience and oncology-related treatments, has excellent FCF. In the trailing 12 months, it had$750 millionin FCF and an FCF yield of 6.8%.\nMany cannabis investors jumped on JAZZ stock after the companyacquired GW Pharmaceuticalsin May for$7.6 billionin cash and stock.\nGW’s cannabis-based medication Epidiolex treats children with rare types of early-onset epilepsy. In 2020, revenue from Epidiolex grew by 73% to$511 million. This growth, in addition tothe company’s sleep disorder medicine Xyrem, shows that Jazz has the makings of a major player in the drug development industry.\nOf the 17 analysts covering JAZZ,15 rate it a buy, one rates it overweight, and one rates it a hold. In their eyes, it’s a clear buy with a target price of $208.82.\nMasonite International (DOOR)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d98745023de226a27d2ff328c57d5219\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: David Papazian / Shutterstock\nIt wouldn’t be a proper gallery from a Canadian writer if it didn’t have a Canadian company in its midst. Masonite, a Toronto-based manufacturer of doors, fits the bill nicely.\nMasonite’s historydates back to 1925, but the Canadian connection didn’t happen until 1999. That’s when Premdor Inc.entered into a strategic alliancewith Masonite Corp., then owned by<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IP\">International Paper</a>(NYSE:IP). A year later, Premdor acquired Masonite from IP for$523 million. Once the acquisition closed, the Premdor name was replaced with Masonite.\nMasonite had sales of $301 million in 1999. In 2020, they were$2.26 billionwith a TTM FCF of $230 million and an FCF yield of 8.5%.\nAs for Masonite’s business, it generates73% of its salesfrom the North <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AFG\">American</a> residential market. Europe accounts for another 11% of sales, and its architectural business is responsible for the rest.\nIt is one of only two vertically integrated residential interior door manufacturers in North America. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NGD\">New</a> residential construction accounts for 45% of its North <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMSWA\">American</a> sales, while the renovation market accounts for the remaining 55%.\nThe company is continuing to grow its margins. In 2015, its adjusted EBITDA margin was 10.9%. Today, it’s over 16%. That’s how you grow free cash flow.\nStocks to Buy: Paramount Group (PGRE)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/40d6b0f5de2972f4461ff4ad61b490fd\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: ImageFlow/shutterstock.com\nParamount Group is a real estate investment trust (REIT) focused on owningthe best assets in the best marketsand providing top-notch service for tenants.\nFounded in 1978, it owns properties in <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NWY\">New York</a>, San Francisco and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WASH\">Washington</a>, D.C. Its 19 assets are valued at approximately$13.5 billion. These properties cover 13.9 million square feet of leasable space and generate $358 million in annualized cash net operating income.\n<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NYRT\">New York</a> <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CHCO\">City</a> accounts for 70% of the REIT’s gross asset value and 62% of its leasable square feet.\nWhile the REIT’s office real estate accounts for a concerning 96% of its revenue, the quality of its properties enables it to charge top dollar rents compared to its peers. Further, none of its largest tenants accounts for more than 4.5% of its annual rent. Most importantly, 32% of its leases will not expire until 2031 or thereafter.\nDespite Covid-19 affecting its business, Q1 2021 saw the REIT deliver$50.6 millionin core funds from operations. That was down from $61.5 million a year ago, but still very positive.As re-openings accelerate, its earnings will too.\nGenpact (G)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3e0c177fc72dfe2c2142787e7708cb1e\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Shutterstock\nGenpact helpsGlobal Fortune 500 companiestransform their digital operations to deliver a world that works better for people.\nIn the first quarter, all Genpact’s financial metrics exceeded expectations. Revenues grew 1%, excluding currency, to$946 millionwhile adjusted earnings per share rose 11% to 59 cents.\nFor all of 2021, Genpact expects revenue of at least $3.93 billion, 5% higher than last year, with an adjusted EPS of $2.27.\nA real-world example of Genpact’s work isits partnershipwithEnvision Virgin Racing, a Formula E racing team. The partnership aims to make the team’s electric vehicles as efficient as possible during Formula E races.\n“Genpact’s technology helps Envision Virgin Racing do this with data analytics and augmented intelligence — the combination of machine-generated insights and human know-how, context, and experience — that engineers, drivers, and pit crew rely on during races to make quick decisions and shift strategies,”Fast Companyreported on July 12.\nNow, multiply this by hundreds of companies across many different industries, and you have the makings of a successful business services provider.\nGenpact currently has an FCF yield of 6.7%, which can provide investors with an excellent entry point.","source":"lsy1606302653667","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>10 Stocks to Buy That Will Double in the Second Half of 2021</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n10 Stocks to Buy That Will Double in the Second Half of 2021\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-19 20:49 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/07/10-stocks-to-buy-that-will-double-in-the-second-half-of-2021/>InvestorPlace</a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\nThese 10 stocks to buy are ready to move higher in second half of 2021.\n\nIt’s never easy to pick stocks to buy for the second half of a calendar year.

But there’s no doubt that they are a group of very talented individuals.\nNormally I’m not a fan of boards that are particularly ancient, especially when it comes to consumer-facing products such as apparel and footwear. But in Columbia’s case, the proof is in the pudding.\nThe company has managed to produce returns for shareholders in recent years. I see good things happening in the long term for investors in COLM stock.\nNomad Foods (NOMD)Source: defotoberg / Shutterstock.com\nIf you haven’t heard of Nomad, it’s thelargest frozen food companyin Europe. In the U.S., the company is the third-largest of its kind, withNestle(OTCMKTS:NSRGY) andConagra Brands(NYSE:CAG) in the top two spots.\nIn March, Nomad announced that it will acquireFortenova’s frozen food business. The company’s Ledo and Frikom brands are well-known to consumers in Central and Eastern Europe. Nomad paid615 million Euros($726 million) for the frozen food group. That’s less than 10 times the group’s adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA).\nNomad’s Green Cuisine brand is Europe’s fastest-growing frozen meat-free brand. In 2020, its retail sales grew by 299%. That’s almost five times faster thanBeyond Meat(NASDAQ:BYND), which saw 65% growth in the same timeframe.\nAnother reason to like Nomad is thatSir Martin Franklin owns 7.4%of its stock. Franklin is acompany builderwith a success rate matched by few others.\nAs for the analysts’ perspective,10 cover NOMD stock,with nine rating it a buy and one rating it overweight. They list a median target price of $28.66. I think we’ll see a bunch of revisions for this stock in the next few months.\nNomad’s TTM FCF is $410.6 million. Based on a market cap of $4.9 billion, it has an FCF yield of 8.4%. I consider that to be value territory.\nStocks to Buy: TechnipFMC (FTI)Source: abu emran / Shutterstock.com\nIf we were talking about weaknesses in stock coverage, the energy sector would be at the top of the list. I don’t see the point in covering businesses that probably won’t exist in a decade or two.\nTechnipFMC was created during theJanuary 2017 mergerof FMC Technologies and Technip. The combination created a global leader in subsea and surface technologies. TechnipFMC also provides services to oil and gas exploration and production companies.\nIn the first quarter of 2021, the company’s subsea operations generated revenue of$1.39 billion, an 11% increase from last year. TechnipFMC’s subsea operations account for 85% of its overall revenue and has a backlog of $6.86 billion.\nIn 2021, the company expects to see revenue of at least $6.05 billion with an EBITDA margin in the low double digits.\nIn Q1, it had an FCF of $137 million. For the TTM ended March 31, its FCF was$620 million, implying an FCF yield of  18%.\nI’m not a fan of energy stocks, but it’s hard not to notice FTI stock’s value at current prices.\nOrix Corporation (IX)Source: shutterstock.com/CC7\nIt’s always nice to be able to include a stock that I’ve previously recommended. In the case of Orix, I suggested investors take a look at the Japanese diversified financial services companyin May 2020.\nI recommended Orix partially because of its U.S. division, which has its hands in all kinds of financial pies. It manages more than$70 billion in assets.\nFast forward to today, and IX stock is up 48% over the past 14 months. Its momentum doesn’t look like it will slow in the second half of 2021.\nI believe this despite the fact that fiscal 2021 wasn’t one of the company’s best years on record. On the top line,revenue grew by less than 1%to 2.293 trillion Japanese Yen ($20.7 billion). Its pre-tax income fell 30% to 287.5 billion Japanese Yen ($2.6 billion).\nThere are a lot of moving parts in Orix’s business. For example, Orix USA’s revenue was up 2% in 2021, but its segment profits fell 23%. The latter decline was primarily due to the sale of equity ownership inHoulihan Lokey(NYSE:HLI) in fiscal 2020.\nI suggest you visit Orix’s various sites, including its investor relations page. It’s a diamond in the rough.\nStocks to Buy: Jazz Pharmaceuticals (JAZZ)Source: Michael Vi / Shutterstock.com\nIf there’s one thing I like to see from most non-financial stocks, it’s strong free cash flow.\nJazz Pharmaceuticals, a developer of medicines for neuroscience and oncology-related treatments, has excellent FCF. In the trailing 12 months, it had$750 millionin FCF and an FCF yield of 6.8%.\nMany cannabis investors jumped on JAZZ stock after the companyacquired GW Pharmaceuticalsin May for$7.6 billionin cash and stock.\nGW’s cannabis-based medication Epidiolex treats children with rare types of early-onset epilepsy. In 2020, revenue from Epidiolex grew by 73% to$511 million. This growth, in addition tothe company’s sleep disorder medicine Xyrem, shows that Jazz has the makings of a major player in the drug development industry.\nOf the 17 analysts covering JAZZ,15 rate it a buy, one rates it overweight, and one rates it a hold. In their eyes, it’s a clear buy with a target price of $208.82.\nMasonite International (DOOR)Source: David Papazian / Shutterstock\nIt wouldn’t be a proper gallery from a Canadian writer if it didn’t have a Canadian company in its midst. Masonite, a Toronto-based manufacturer of doors, fits the bill nicely.\nMasonite’s historydates back to 1925, but the Canadian connection didn’t happen until 1999. That’s when Premdor Inc.entered into a strategic alliancewith Masonite Corp., then owned byInternational Paper(NYSE:IP). A year later, Premdor acquired Masonite from IP for$523 million. Once the acquisition closed, the Premdor name was replaced with Masonite.\nMasonite had sales of $301 million in 1999. In 2020, they were$2.26 billionwith a TTM FCF of $230 million and an FCF yield of 8.5%.\nAs for Masonite’s business, it generates73% of its salesfrom the North American residential market. Europe accounts for another 11% of sales, and its architectural business is responsible for the rest.\nIt is one of only two vertically integrated residential interior door manufacturers in North America. New residential construction accounts for 45% of its North American sales, while the renovation market accounts for the remaining 55%.\nThe company is continuing to grow its margins. In 2015, its adjusted EBITDA margin was 10.9%. Today, it’s over 16%. That’s how you grow free cash flow.\nStocks to Buy: Paramount Group (PGRE)Source: ImageFlow/shutterstock.com\nParamount Group is a real estate investment trust (REIT) focused on owningthe best assets in the best marketsand providing top-notch service for tenants.\nFounded in 1978, it owns properties in New York, San Francisco and Washington, D.C. Its 19 assets are valued at approximately$13.5 billion. These properties cover 13.9 million square feet of leasable space and generate $358 million in annualized cash net operating income.\nNew York City accounts for 70% of the REIT’s gross asset value and 62% of its leasable square feet.\nWhile the REIT’s office real estate accounts for a concerning 96% of its revenue, the quality of its properties enables it to charge top dollar rents compared to its peers. Further, none of its largest tenants accounts for more than 4.5% of its annual rent. Most importantly, 32% of its leases will not expire until 2031 or thereafter.\nDespite Covid-19 affecting its business, Q1 2021 saw the REIT deliver$50.6 millionin core funds from operations. That was down from $61.5 million a year ago, but still very positive.As re-openings accelerate, its earnings will too.\nGenpact (G)Source: Shutterstock\nGenpact helpsGlobal Fortune 500 companiestransform their digital operations to deliver a world that works better for people.\nIn the first quarter, all Genpact’s financial metrics exceeded expectations.
