Long-Term Analysis

It is best to consider a long-term outlook for a ticker by using Fundamental Analysis (FA) ratings. The rating of 1 to 100, where 1 is best and 100 is worst, is divided into thirds. The first third (a green rating of 1-33) indicates that the ticker is undervalued; the second third (a grey number between 34 and 66) means that the ticker is valued fairly; and the last third (red number of 67 to 100) reflects that the ticker is undervalued. We use an FA Score to show how many ratings show the ticker to be undervalued (green) or overvalued (red).

LAC’s FA Score shows that 1 FA rating(s) are green whileSQM’s FA Score has 0 green FA rating(s), and TAC’s FA Score reflects 1 green FA rating(s).

  • LAC’s FA Score: 1 green, 4 red.
  • SQM’s FA Score: 0 green, 5 red.

According to our system of comparison, TAC is a better buy in the long-term than LAC, which in turn is a better option than SQM.

Short-Term Analysis

It is best to consider a short-term outlook for a ticker by using Technical Analysis (TA) indicators. We use Odds of Success as the percentage of outcomes which confirm successful trade signals in the past.

If the Odds of Success (the likelihood of the continuation of a trend) for each indicator are greater than 50%, then the generated signal is confirmed. A green percentage from 90% to 51% indicates that the ticker is in a bullish trend. A red percentage from 90% - 51% indicates that the ticker is in a bearish trend. All grey percentages are below 50% and are considered not to confirm the trend signal.

LAC’s TA Score shows that 2 TA indicator(s) are bullish while SQM’s TA Score has 5 bullish TA indicator(s), and TAC’s TA Score reflects 5 bullish TA indicator(s).

  • LAC’s TA Score: 2 bullish, 7 bearish.
  • SQM’s TA Score: 5 bullish, 3 bearish.
  • TAC’s TA Score: 5 bullish, 3 bearish.
According to our system of comparison, SQM is a better buy in the short-term than TAC, which in turn is a better option than LAC.

Industries' Descriptions

@Other Metals/Minerals (+3.32% weekly)

The category includes companies that explore for, mine and extract metals, such as copper, diamonds, nickel, cobalt ore, lead, zinc and uranium. BHP, Rio Tinto and Southern Copper Corporation are major players in this space.

@Chemicals: Specialty (+0.35% weekly)

The specialty chemicals sector includes companies that produce chemicals and industrial gases, which are of relatively high-value, often made to customer specifications. Examples of specialty chemicals are electronic chemicals, industrial gases, coatings, adhesives and sealants, industrial and institutional cleaning chemicals. The products are often valued on the basis of their purposes/performances rather than for their composition. Linde Plc, Ecolab Inc., Air Products and Chemicals, Inc., and Dow, Inc. are some of the largest companies making specialty chemicals.

@Electric Utilities (-0.09% weekly)

Electric utilities companies generate, transmit and distribute electricity to businesses/offices and residences. Companies may be owned by the government or investors or public shareholders, or a combination thereof. The industry also includes firms that buy and sell electricity. Companies in this industry typically require significant investments in infrastructure. Many firms in this industry pay substantial and regular dividends to shareholders. However, changes in interest rates (and their impact on debt burdens), natural disasters and changing commodity prices could be factors affecting energy utilities’ profit margins. NextEra Energy, Inc., Duke Energy Corporation, Dominion Energy Inc. and Southern Company are among U.S. electric utilities companies with the largest market capitalizations.
