It’s no easy gig analysing share prices and company performance but somebody’s got to do it. Every week two experts from our Share Tips columnist pool give us their recommendations. 

Mark Goulopoulos – Cumulus Wealth

BUY

Paladin Energy (ASX:PDN)

Namibia-based uranium producer offering quality exposure to a commodity facing growing supply deficits over the coming years.

Lion Selection Group (ASX:LSX)

Listed investment company trading below its NTA, with a strong track record of backing successful small-cap resource companies.

HOLD

Pilbara Minerals (ASX:PLS)

A well-funded lithium producer likely to withstand the current downturn, though lithium demand and price remains volatile.

Goodman Group (ASX:GMG)

High-quality, well-capitalised property developer with a strong project pipeline including data centres, though valuation appears full.

SELL

Lovisa Holdings (ASX:LOV)

Recent share price rally presents an exit point amid rising competition in Australia and concerns around slowing like-for-like sales.

Nufarm (ASX:NUF)

Facing operational headwinds and burdened by a stretched balance sheet, with limited visibility on a recovery.

David Thang – Sequoia Wealth

BUY

Metcash (ASX:MTS)

The merger of hardware brands under a single management structure is expected to deliver operational efficiencies. Growth in the food segment is evident, particularly from Superior Foods.

James Hardie (ASX:JHX)

Double-digit profit margin is reflective of strong cost control and operational discipline. A solid balance sheet and low leverage indicate financial stability and flexibility for future growth.

HOLD

Breville (ASX:BRG)

Expanding its manufacturing footprint beyond China to countries like Mexico, Indonesia and Cambodia. This should reduce future tariff risks and strengthen supply chain resilience.

Zip Co (ASX:ZIP)

US Total Transaction Value (TTV) grew 40 per cent over the past year. Credit loss rates remain low below 1.5%. Earnings have been upgraded for the current financial year.

SELL

Perpetual (ASX:PPT)

The termination of the KKR deal has left Perpetual with significant debt and a strained balance sheet. Capital is better deployed elsewhere.

IDP Education (ASX:IEL)

Deteriorating conditions across the UK, Australia, Canada and US due to restrictive immigration and student visa policies has led to sharply lower demand and heightened uncertainty to earnings.
