Morning Filter Podcast Flags 4 Undervalued Income Stocks as August Inflation Shapes Fed View
3 articles · Updated · Morningstar · Aug 17
Summary
Four undervalued income investments capped Morning Filter’s latest episode, which focused on August market moves and what last week’s softer inflation data could mean for the Fed’s next step.
Dave Sekera and Susan Dziubinski tied that inflation backdrop to this week’s retail earnings, highlighting Walmart, Target, Home Depot and Lowe’s as key reads on consumer demand.
The episode also revisited post-earnings stock calls, weighing whether Cisco and Applied Materials look attractive, whether Nebius Group remains too expensive after a fair-value increase, and why Morningstar still favors On Holding.
Dan Lefkovitz of Morningstar Indexes broadened the discussion to income strategy, comparing core bonds, dividend stocks, MLPs, high-yield bonds and REITs for investors seeking yield in the current market.
