Top 10 Warren Buffett Stocks To Buy For 2019

tags:NOW,CPSI,PAAS,ITHUF,EGY,MFM,RUP,FWP,BTCY,ALSN,

If you're an investor in consumer goods giant Unilever (NYSE:UN), odds are you followed the takeover bid from Kraft Heinz (NASDAQ: KHC) closely in 2017. Ultimately, it fell through, with Unilever's management rebutting that it was better off on its own. There was some mustard left on the face of Kraft Heinz, but major shareholder Warren Buffett claimed there was potentially a misunderstanding of the nature of the offer. It was not intended to be a hostile takeover, he said, but it could have been perceived that way by Unilever.

Nearly a year has passed, and there are no signs of reconciling differences. However, for Unilever shareholders, reflecting on the motives of the deal provides valuable insight into the company. Warren Buffett and Kraft Heinz no doubt had a list of reasons to pursue Unilever. But I expect there's one metric above all else that caught their eye.

It boils down to this

Over the years, Buffett has made it clear he loves name-brand companies, simple-to-understand businesses, and clear visibility into the future of the businesses he buys. But there's one thing that he appreciates more than all of those, and that's high returns on invested capital.

  However, there have been some winning marijuana stocks at the halfway market through 2018. Shares of MariMed (NASDAQOTH:MRMD), iAnthus Capital Holdings (NASDAQOTH:ITHUF), and Canopy Growth Corporation (NYSE:CGC) have soared. These three are the best marijuana stocks of 2018 so far for companies with current market caps of at least $200 million and that have a significant focus on the cannabis industry. 

• [By ]

  Much of the focus of cannabis investors has been centered on Canada and California. This makes sense given that they are the two largest recreational (or soon to be) cannabis markets in the world. However, one publicly traded company with US-centric cannabis operations has taken a different approach. iAnthus Capital is listed in Canada on the CSE (OTCQB:ITHUF), but is headquartered in New York and incorporated in Delaware. Unlike other Canadian-listed cannabis companies, most of which are aiming to get in on the highly competitive green-rush in California and Canada, iAnthus has set its sights on becoming the dominant player on the U.S. East Coast.

• [By Sean Williams]

  With this in mind, here are the pot stocks offering the highest revenue potential in fiscal 2019, listed in descending order:

  Aurora Cannabis (NYSE:ACB): $244.5 million The Green Organic Dutchman: $227.1 million Canopy Growth (NYSE:CGC): $190.4 million MedMen Enterprises: $188.9 million iAnthus Capital Holdings (NASDAQOTH:ITHUF): $181.4 million Village Farms International: $147.6 million GW Pharmaceuticals: $123 million KushCo Holdings (NASDAQOTH:KSHB): $117.9 million Aphria (NYSE:APHA): $107.4 million CannTrust Holdings: $105.5 million

  What about Florida? If you want to stick with marijuana growers, one possibility is iAnthus Capital Holdings (NASDAQOTH:ITHUF). The company holds one of only 13 cannabis licenses in Florida and also has operations in three other states. Its stock ranked as the No. 2 best-performing marijuana stock in the first half of 2018.

• [By Peter Graham]

  Small cap Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) company Biotricity Inc (OTCQB: BTCY), which is building a remote patient monitoring platform, has just released operational updates for fiscal Q2 2018 (which ended September 30, 2018). To begin with, Bioflux 1.0 (which is a high-precision, single-unit mobile cardiac telemetry or MCT device that provides real-time monitoring and transmission of ambulatory patients' ECG information) experienced record high sales growth and market expansion during the fiscal Q2 2018 – including a 150% increase in total device sales and a 75% increase in new customers from Q1. Existing customers continued to purchase additional units leading to a 62% increase in repeat customer orders from Q1.

  According to a recent report ("Internet of Medical Things Enabling Hospitals of the Future") from Frost & Sullivan, the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is helping to drive the home healthcare industry into new innovations that are clustered around wearables and eSkin devices – the type of devices that small cap Biotricity Inc (OTCQB: BTCY) is developing. To begin with, the Internet of Medical Things is part of the much bigger Internet of Things (IoT) idea with IoMT consisting connected medical devices or applications feeding medical or patient data into the cloud via online networks. In addition and aside from Internet of Medical Things, there is also another trend in healthcare to move away from "reactive" healthcare where a patient visits a healthcare facility to deal with a problem and to instead move toward "proactive" healthcare care where the patient takes a degree of responsibility for their own health through the use of health monitoring systems (enabled by IoMT).
