A once-in-a-decade chance to buy Marks and Spencer shares?
|
Marks and Spencer (LSE:MKS) shares are certainly interesting UK retail investors — it’s one of the most researched stocks. The shares have surged from their lows during the cost-of-living crisis, but didn’t offer much in the way of returns last year. One reason for this was the cyberattack at Marks and Spencer that forced the suspension of online orders and disrupted in-store systems, hitting sales and increasing operating costs. Management warned of a material profit impact and ongoing remediation spending. The stock is now down 20% from its highs, even after a positive trading update. So, is this a once-in-a-decade opportunity to consider it? Marks and Spencer is currently trading around 11.1 times forward earnings ( for the next 12 months). That puts it at a significant discount to its grocery peers, but it’s more expensive than where it was a couple of years ago. For example, in July 2022, the stock was trading around 8.7 times forward earnings. It also had a sizeable 4.6% dividend yield versus 1.3% today. So where does my ‘once-in-a-decade’ idea come from? The big differences between then and now are growth and debt. Back then, net debt was greater than the market cap. Today, net debt is around 25% of the market cap. So, if we adjust the price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio for the net debt position, it’s actually cheaper today. And then there’s growth. In 2022, analysts forecast a 20% fall in earnings for FY23 followed by a 4% increase in FY24. But today, the forecast is for a 22.4% fall in FY26 (because of the cyberattack), followed by a 46.9% increase in FY27. This also tells us that it’s cheaper on a growth-adjusted basis. My point is, even though Marks and Spencer shares looked cheaper on face value in 2022, a very small amount of analysis tells us that this wasn’t the case based on forecast earnings and the balance sheet. Marks and Spencer left full-year guidance unchanged after “solid†Christmas trading, as 5.6% like-for-like food growth offset a 2.9% fall in clothing, home and other non-food categories. Group sales rose 3.3% excluding Ocado as the business said a record number of customers shopped with M&S this Christmas. However, the investment thesis really isn’t about this year. It’s about FY27 when earnings normalise and grow. Risks? Well, there are always risks. One ever-present one is the state of the economy and the enduring perception of M&S as a premium brand. So, is this a once-in-a-decade opportunity to buy the shares? I actually believe it might be, but I can’t be sure. Purely on a valuation basis, I believe it would be hard to find the stock looking more attractive. I’ve actually gone through lots of historical valuation sheets for the company, and the current position is the best I’ve seen. With this in mind, I absolutely think the stock is worth considering.

How much do you need in an ISA for £1,618 of monthly passive income?
|
Many investors dream of building enough passive income to cover their monthly outgoings, and an ISA producing £1,618 a month would go a long way towards that goal. That equates to a very appealing £19,416 a year, all potentially tax free. But how large would an ISA actually need to be to generate that level of income sustainably? It comes down to the return an investor can achieve without eating into capital. At a cautious long-term 4% yield, the ISA would need to be worth around £485,000. At 5%, which could be achievable with a diversified mix of dividend-paying shares and income funds, the required pot falls to roughly £388,000. Push the yield to 6%, and it drops again to about £324,000, although higher yields usually bring greater volatility. Thanks to the ISA’s tax-free wrapper, every pound of that passive income is retained by the investor. That’s a huge benefit. For some however, the whole prospect of building a a six-figure ISA can feel daunting. Yet it’s often less about huge lump sums and more about time, discipline, and compounding. Regular monthly investing, topped up by dividend reinvestment and the occasional market dip, can steadily snowball into something substantial. As the below graph shows us, it would take just over 15 years for £750 of monthly contributions and a 10% annualised return to reach £324,000. However, this is theoretical. Investors need to put their money in the right places. Invest poorly and you could lose money.

It is not intended to be, neither does it constitute, any form of tax advice. Readers are responsible for carrying out their own due diligence and for obtaining professional advice before making any investment decisions. Me and my Foolish colleagues typically believe that the best way to build long-term wealth is by investing in a handful of well-researched stocks. One such stock is Melrose Industries (LSE:MRO). It’s a company I like a lot because of its positioning within the aerospace and defence sector. Melrose has carved out a distinctive niche by acquiring, restructuring and repositioning industrial assets where operational improvements can unlock real value. It has a sole-source position for 70% of its sales. This gives it incredible pricing power, but that isn’t currently reflected in the valuation. The company has been undergoing a significant overhaul in recent years and, as such, maybe somewhat overlooked. The stock trades around 16.2 times forward earnings (the coming 12 months). However, earnings are expected to grow by more than 20% per annum in the years through to 2029. That gives us a price-to-earnings-to-growth (PEG) ratio significantly under one. This provides a margin of safety based on projected earnings. However, there are always risks. Trade disruption or supply chain bottle necks could impact operational improvements. It really needs to deliver in the coming years to convince the market it should be trading at higher multiples. It’s also worth remembering that Rolls-Royce and other peers in this sector trade with much higher multiples. In fact, Rolls is essentially three times more expensive on a growth-adjusted basis. Personally, I think Melrose should be strongly considered. The post How much do you need in an ISA for £1,618 of monthly passive income? appeared first on The Motley Fool UK.

Now might be the last chance to buy Lloyds shares at the £1 mark
|
In March 2024, I penned an article on this website titled: “Now might be the last chance to buy Lloyds shares under 50p.” I thought I identified a few key reasons why the Lloyds (LSE: LLOY) share price looked undervalued. I even said the 50p share price might be seen as an “obvious low” in years to come. So what happened? Well, Lloyds shares now sit at 101p. They’ve shot up to a 17-year high. Investors have seen the value of the shires rise by more than double and collected a few handsome dividends along the way too. What’s more, I believe that many of the same factors that were true then are true now. Put simply, the near-£1 Lloyds share price might look just as cheap as that sub-50p one did. Here’s why I think the stock is worth considering. First things first, I am certainly no modern-day Nostradamus. Like even the best of investors, I get ones wrong along with the ones I get right. In the interest of balance, I’ll cite a notable loser of mine: alcoholics drinksmaker Diageo – down close to 40% over the same period. In a similar vein, the general performance of global markets and the FTSE 100 has been strong over the period too. Had the Footsie not booked years of 7% and 21% in 2024 and 2025 respectively then I doubt my prediction would be looking quite so prophetic. The markets are at record highs as we speak. A downturn – perhaps from that long-awaited and much predicted ‘AI stock market crash’ – could undermine my previous claims too. Any investor can make themselves look good by cherry-picking the high points rather than the general trend. Are Lloyds shares going to repeat the trick then? No one can say for sure, but the shares are still trading at cheap valuations, as they have done for most of the time since the Great Recession. It’s understandable for investors to be cautious after such a reckless collapse, but the days of the ‘ghosts of 2008’ might be numbered. Lloyds shares trade at around 11 times forward earnings. This is significantly cheaper than its counterparts across the Atlantic, and is even a good sight of a discount on the long-term FTSE 100 average of around 15. Perhaps most pertinently, the earnings forecasts for the years ahead are set to bring that figure down further. Another boon for Lloyds shares is higher interest rates. When borrowing is too low, banks don’t make much of a margin on their products. When borrowing is too high, the sector has to handle more defaults on debts. The current levels are something of a ‘goldilocks zone’ at the moment. They seem to be coming down more slowly than many had anticipated too.

How much would someone need in the stock market to earn a £500 weekly second income?
|
Ever thought about putting money into some shares to try and build a second income through dividends? After all, Britain’s blue-chip FTSE 100 firms pay out well over £1bn per week on average in dividends. That goes to shareholders who do not have to do anything to earn it, other than owning those shares. Building a second income by setting up a portfolio of dividend shares sounds pretty straightforward. It can also be lucrative. But there are risks too. Dividends are never guaranteed to last. Share price falls can also eat into capital value, even if dividends keep flowing. On the other hand, dividends can grow – and so can share prices. Clearly, it makes sense for an investor to take some time to figure out what shares might best suit them in their hunt to balance potential rewards and risks. Say someone’s second income target is £26k annually, which works out at £500 per week. How much they need to invest will depend on the average dividend yield of their portfolio. Yield is basically what dividends one expects to earn in a year, expressed as a percentage of the purchase price. At the moment, the FTSE 100 index yields 2.9%. Say someone targets double that: a yield of 5.8%. In today’s market I still think that is possible while sticking to high-quality shares. At a 5.8% yield, a £26k annual second income would require investing around £448k. £448k is a lot of money. But it does not need to be invested all at once. In fact, someone could start from zero today, then drip feed money in over time, building up to that goal. Say they did that with £1k a month, compounding it at 5.8% annually. Within 21 years, the portfolio ought to be worth more than the necessary £448k. At that point, instead of continuing to compound the dividends, they could start taking them out as a second income, without needing to put another penny in. There are different platforms the person could use for that regular saving, compounding, and investment. So it makes sense for them to contrast and compare share dealing accounts, Stocks and Shares ISAs, and trading apps. At the moment I think an income share investors should consider is Legal & General (LSE: LGEN). At 8%, the yield is well above the target I mentioned above. The FTSE 100 financial services firm aims to grow its dividend per share annually, though in practice no dividend is ever guaranteed. The company has a large customer base. Its brand is strong and it has deep experience in its field. A focus on retirement-linked products means it can tap into a large, long-term market. The planned sale of a large US unit could mean future cash flows are smaller, threatening the dividend. But on balance I see Legal & General as a well-proven business with long-term cash generation potential.

Want to earn £1k each month in dividends from an ISA? Here’s how
|
Saving up some money in an ISA then drawing dividends from it – potentially for decades – can be a straightforward way to try and build some passive income streams. How much someone might earn doing that depends on how much is in the ISA and what the average dividend yield is. To illustrate, let’s work backwards. Say someone would like to target a monthly dividend income averaging £1,000. That’s £12k a year. At a 10% dividend yield, that would require an ISA worth £120k. However, 10% is unusually high for a dividend yield. At the moment, the FTSE 100 yield is 2.9%. So let’s presume an average yield of 6%. I reckon that’s achievable in today’s market while sticking to blue-chip companies with proven cash generation potential. At a 6% yield, the £12k annual figure would need an ISA worth £200k. There’s a problem, though. The annual contribution allowance for an ISA is typically £20k. Please note that tax treatment depends on the individual circumstances of each client and may be subject to change in future. The content in this article is provided for information purposes only. It is not intended to be, neither does it constitute, any form of tax advice. Readers are responsible for carrying out their own due diligence and for obtaining professional advice before making any investment decisions. So, if someone had a spare £20k sitting around in an ISA, they could start immediately. But what if they didn’t? Then, they could drip feed in £20k per year (actually the same approach could also work with smaller contributions, but it would take longer). That sounds like it would take 10 years to reach the £200k level. But in fact, thanks to compounding (reinvesting dividends along the way), it would only take nine years. At that point, having the ISA invested in shares yielding an average of 6% (or more) would provide an annual dividend income equivalent to over £1k each month. That could go on for the rest of the investor’s life, if the shares are not sold and the dividends are not cut. In fact, the amount could well actually grow over time with no more capital added to the ISA, if the dividends get bigger. But dividends can be cut as well as grow. So the smart investor chooses their shares carefully. One share I think income investors should consider at the moment is broadcaster ITV (LSE: ITV). It yields 6.2% and aims to hold or grow its dividend per share over time. The company basically has two parts. One produces and distributes content, through its terrestrial TV channels as well as digitally. The other division rents out studios and assists other companies producing programmes. ITV’s share price has tumbled 27% in five years. The City remains concerned about the risk of growth in digital media consumption, hurting ITV’s traditional business but also providing more competition for the company’s own digital efforts. That’s a risk to its advertising revenue and profits. But with its strong media franchises, diversified activity, and deep advertising relationships, I reckon ITV could potentially keep generating spare cash for a long time to come. The shares chosen will impact the plan’s success. But it’s also important to choose the right Stocks and Shares ISA, as fees and commissions can also eat into returns. Something I like about this plan is that it’s pretty simple, but potentially lucrative. It’s also fairly passive – but it does require at least some effort to get started!

Forget Rolls-Royce shares! This top growth stock looks more attractive in 2026

At the start of 2026, I thought Rolls-Royce shares were set for a more low-key year. After all, they had returned 222%, 90%, and 104% respectively in 2023, 2024, and 2025. This FTSE 100 stock was due a breather! But Rolls-Royce has flown out of the traps, with a 9.5% gain, making it the sixth-best performing Footsie share so far this year. However, the stock’s now trading at 39 times 2026’s forecast earnings. At this lofty valuation, everything will have to go right this year for it to keep powering on. And that’s obviously not guaranteed, with geopolitical tensions high and ongoing supply chain challenges. As such, I see more interesting opportunities elsewhere in the market right now. Here’s one of them. On Holding (NYSE:ONON) is the Swiss firm behind the sportswear brand that has taken the world by storm over the past three years. In 2025, the company expects sales to have risen 34% at constant currency to around 3bn Swiss francs ($3.74bn, at the current exchange rate). Considering the industry downturn that has seen Nike and other sportswear brands struggle, this is a remarkable performance. It tells us that the brand is taking share in a tough market because customers love the products. Wall Street expects another 20%+ jump in sales in 2026 and 2027, with an even stronger growth in profits. And this growing profitability is really attractive, with On positioning itself as the world’s most premium sportswear brand. Unlike most other brands, On doesn’t discount, which is translating into industry-leading margins. Its Cloudmonster Hyper trainer line can cost as much as £260 a pair, while its Cloudboom Strike LS (LightSpray) racing shoes go for even more. In future, management sees further margin expansion as it aggressively moves into apparel and opens more retail stores. Apparel typically carries higher gross margins than footwear, and the firm’s in the very early innings of capturing this global opportunity. What [premium] really does, it really sets ourselves apart from the mass market where…there’s a lot of competition. And this allows us to actually charter our own path and not just fish in the same pond like everyone else. CEO Martin Hoffman When I think of my best-ever investments (particularly Nvidia, Intuitive Surgical, and Axon Enterprise), they’re extremely innovative companies. I see something similar here. For example, the company’s LightSpray technology involves a robotic arm spraying a continuous filament onto a mould. The entire upper of the shoe is created in just three minutes rather than hours of manual labour! On plans to open robot-led factories close to major retail markets rather than permanently relying on Asian manufacturing. If successful, this would result in quicker production, faster shipping, less carbon footprint, and perhaps even higher margins in future. One future risk I see is a drop-off in manufacturing quality. After all, folk aren’t paying top dollar for cool products to be disappointed, so excellence is expected but not necessarily guaranteed. Meanwhile, Hoka provides competition in high-end running shoes. Still, at 25 times 2027’s forecast earnings, I think the stock’s well worth considering. If On can grow its current 1% share of the global sportswear market to 3% or even 5%, there could be significant returns for investors today. The post Forget Rolls-Royce shares!

I think this is a rare chance to buy this beaten up FTSE 250 stock
|
As a sector, UK homebuilders have endured a rough couple of years thanks to interest rates staying higher for longer and weakness in the UK economy. Within the sector, I spotted one of the FTSE 250 firms that took a large hit in 2024 and still hasn’t recovered. Yet, based on my outlook for the company, I think it could be a rare opportunity to buy on the cheap right now. I’m talking about Vistry (LSE:VTY). The share price might be up 30% over the past year, but this is slightly misleading as to where the stock is over the long term. It’s down over 50% from its early September 2024 price. In Q4 2024 and into 2025, the company struggled amid multiple profit warnings, cost overruns, and deteriorating earnings expectations. One of the largest disappointments came in late 2024 when the company disclosed that it had understated build costs by around 10% on several developments in its South Division. Given this was expected to reduce profits by approximately £115m, the sizeable hit knocked roughly £1bn off its market value. It caused the stock to fall by 25% lower in just a few days. It hasn’t been able to recover since then, as cost issues were revealed to be larger than initially thought. As this filtered down to lower profits in 2024 and 2025, investors logically reduced their expectations for the company’s value, causing the stock to underperform. I think the stock offers a rare buying opportunity now. To begin with, consider the valuation. The price-to-book ratio is currently 0.65. Apart from at the start of last year, when it was at 0.58, this is the lowest the ratio has been in the last decade. This could indicate the stock is undervalued. Further, I feel we’re at peak pessimism about homebuilders. I struggle to see how things can get much worse. On the other hand, I expect several interest rate cuts this year. If we see three more cuts this year, taking the base rate down to 3%, it would be the lowest level since 2022. This would likely lead to higher mortgage demand given the more affordable prices on offer. Finally, the UK Government’s multi-billion-pound Social and Affordable Homes Programme is expected to be pushed hard this year. It aims to expand capacity and deliver more partnered housing deals. As a result, it means Vistry is well-positioned to benefit. A risk is that we could see further delays, cost overruns or warranty costs on past homes, which can negatively affect profitability. But given the attractiveness of the stock for a variety of reasons, I think it’s a company for investors to consider.

Should these updated analyst forecasts for Tesla stock change my view?
|
The first couple of weeks of the year typically see analysts at major banks and brokers update their views on particular stocks. Coming into 2026, I had an optimistic view of Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock, based on several factors. Having taken a look at the target prices from several analysts, here’s the impact it’s had on me. To begin with, we should be clear that analysts’ views are subjective. The target prices for the coming year aren’t guaranteed. However, these people are experts in their field, so it’s worth taking their views seriously at the same time. For reference, the Tesla share price is at $448. There are some standout price targets, such as from the well-known Dan Ives at Wedbush, who’s calling for $600 within the next 12 months. On the other hand, analysts at JP Morgan upgraded their view of the US stock, but only from $130 to $150. This reflects one of the most negative views from major banks. What’s also interesting to note is the incredibly wide range of forecasts. I can’t remember the last time I saw a $450 range in analyst views for such a mega-cap company. When I put them all together, the average target price is $405. This reflects around a 10% drop from the current price. One of the reasons why the team at JP Morgan isn’t overly optimistic for this year is due to a softer consumer demand trend. In fact, it thinks the business could be on the verge of not growing its full-year unit volumes. If realised, it would be the first time this has happened. As a result, the team believes investors will be forced to reconsider the business’s growth trajectory and, therefore, where the share price should be relative to future earnings potential. The stock is up 14% over the past year, and has a price-to-earnings ratio of 306. So I do understand how this can be seen as a risk going forward. The fact that after the January updates, the average share price target is below the current price doesn’t overly bother me though. I can’t remember a year when there’s so much potential for Tesla to impress the market with new products. I’m talking about everything from robots through to the next-gen roadster. There’s so much in the works, on top of existing projects such as expanding the Cybertruck and a more affordable EV. If any one of these projects gets meaningful traction in 2026, I think it could act as a major catalyst to help support the share price. The strong fanbase of Tesla, with powerful brand recognition and the early mover advantage it has in many of its markets, all add up to me to a positive outlook for this year. Granted, the risks mentioned earlier are valid, but on balance,I think it’s a stock for investors to consider.

Warren Buffett’s number 1 rule for investing in the stock market
|
Billionaire Warren Buffett’s top rule for investors is dead simple – don’t lose money. But how can anyone follow this in a stock market where share prices can go down as well as up? Nobody can prevent a stock going down. Fortunately though, this isn’t what Buffett means when it comes to avoiding losses – it’s something else entirely. There are two ways to think about buying shares. One is in terms of owning a stock that can move up and down in price and the other is about being part of the underlying business. This is the difference between trading and investing. Fundamentally, traders buy shares because they think price is going to go higher – usually in the near future. Investors, by contrast, buy shares because they think the underlying business is going to produce a lot of cash. And this usually takes longer. That’s not to say traders ignore what the underlying business is doing. A lot of the time, their reason for thinking a stock’s going up is because the company’s earnings are likely to grow. Equally, investors don’t have to be entirely disinterested in share prices. Buffett’s said before that earnings growth in Coca-Cola has resulted in the stock going higher over time. In each case though, it’s a means to an end. For traders, the business matters because it affects the share price and for investors – such as Buffett – it’s the other way around. Buffett’s advice means investors should therefore be wary of companies that might lose money over time. And there are lots of ways of doing this. One that investors need to be wary of is attempting to grow through acquisitions. This can result in permanent losses, but there are some things investors can do to minimise this risk. A good example is Judges Scientific (LSE:JDG) – a stock I own in my portfolio. The company’s grown significantly by adding other scientific instrument firms to its existing network. This kind of business comes with a danger of the kind of losses Buffett says to avoid. Paying too much for a company means spending out cash that can be lost if the deal doesn’t pay off. Judges Scientific though, has a couple of ways of limiting this risk. It focuses on acquisition targets that fit within its core specialism and are relatively small compared to its own size. That helps reduce the risk of making a bad deal. And it’s why the company’s managed to grow is revenues at 12% a year on average over the last five years. Avoiding losses is Buffett’s first rule of investing. And the way Judges Scientific plans its acquisitions is a good model for how investors should think about their own investments. Focusing on its core competence helps limit the risk of making a mistake. In the same way, investors in general should concentrate on businesses they can understand. Equally, focusing on small targets reduces the impact on the firm as a whole if things do go wrong. And this is exactly why ordinary investors should look to build a diversified portfolio. That’s why I hold the stock. And it’s also why it’s on my list to keep buying. The post Warren Buffett’s number 1 rule for investing in the stock market appeared first on The Motley Fool UK.

Will Rolls-Royce’s share price surge or sink? 4 key things to consider
|
The Rolls-Royce (LSE:RR.) share price has been one of the FTSE 100‘s greatest recovery stories. It was trading below 100p per share less than three years ago. Today its stock changes hands at £12.82. Strong end markets and widescale restructuring have underpinned its stunning ascent. But have Rolls-Royce shares peaked? Here are four important factors to consider before buying the FTSE company today. A strong civil aviation sector is critical for Rolls-Royce. It accounts for almost 70% of profits, and was the backbone of the company’s post-pandemic recovery. The good news is analysts are tipping another strong year for airlines. Latest data from trade body the International Air Transport Association (IATA) showed air passenger growth up 5.7% in November, underpinning robust expectations for 2026. This in turn bodes well for Rolls’ aftermarket services operations and for engine orders. But can aerospace companies capitalise on the airline industry’s strength as supply chain issues linger? The IATA has also said that “demand is forecast to outstrip the availability of aircraft and engines” and last until 2031 to 2034. Rolls itself is already feeling the squeeze. November’s latest trading update mentioned “continued supply chain challenges” that in my view could threaten product delivery and push up costs. Current disruption could worsen further as geopolitical tensions mount. Safran chief executive Olivier Andries warned of “the weaponisation of the supply chain” last week, and particularly in the case of rare earth metals used in plane engines. Yet Rolls-Royce isn’t a one-trick pony. Its aerospace expertise is also in high demand in the non-cyclical defence sector. The company is a major player in the manufacture of ship engines, battery storage technology, and diesel generators too. I’m particularly excited by the possibility of further progress with its small modular reactor (SMR) programme following recent good news. In September, the company was chosen as the Czech Republic’s preferred supplier for these nuclear reactors. It’s also in contention to build SMRs for the UK government. More success could help light a fire under Rolls’ share price. However, is the good feeling towards Rolls-Royce investment case now fully baked into its share price? There’s a good argument in my view that its shares now look massively expensive at current levels. Today the FTSE stock’s forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is 39.7 times. To put that in context, the 10-year average for its shares sits way back at 15. My fear isn’t just that this could put a cap on further share price gains. A valuation like this can open the door to a sharp correction if the news cycle worsens and trading news remains anything other than spectacular. And in my view, the chances of market conditions worsening are significant enough that they can’t be ignored. Supply chain dangers is just one major threat to the engineer. Add in other dangers like an economic downturn, product failures, competitive threats, and regulatory hurdles, and I think Rolls-Royce shares are far too risky at current prices. I won’t be buying the FTSE 100 firm for my own portfolio. However, it may be worth considering by investors with higher risk tolerance than myself.
