Revealed! 3 Undervalued Stocks I Just Bought

Parkev Tatevosian, CFA•Jun 26, 2026

Summary

Parkev discusses his recent investment activity, focusing on three specific stocks he acquired during a period of market volatility. His primary thesis revolves around identifying high-quality companies trading below their calculated fair values and using these purchases to balance a portfolio that is currently heavily weighted toward AI-related technology stocks like Nvidia, Alphabet, and Amazon. He emphasizes the importance of financial discipline in management and the benefit of owning recession-resistant assets.

Netflix (NFLX): Parkev considers Netflix the best-in-class streaming platform, noting its shift from licensing content to successfully creating original global hits. He praises the management's prudence in M&A, specifically their refusal to overpay for acquisitions like Roku or Warner Brothers, and highlights the ad-supported tier as a strong value proposition. He sets a fair value of $125 and considers anything below $85 a good entry point.

Eli Lilly (LLY): The company is highlighted for its market leadership in weight loss treatments and a robust drug pipeline. Parkev emphasizes its role as a defensive play, noting that pharmaceutical demand remains steady regardless of economic cycles, which provides excellent diversification. He calculated a fair value of $1,443 and recently purchased shares at $1,100.

MasterCard (MA): Parkev views MasterCard as one of the most profitable businesses in the world and purchased it to achieve a balanced 8% allocation alongside his Visa holdings. While acknowledging regulatory risks in Europe, he argues that the slow pace of European governance makes a total network separation unlikely. He believes the stock is currently trading at a relatively cheap valuation due to these overstated geopolitical concerns.

Mentioned Stocks

Sentiment: BUYAction: BOUGHT

Reasoning: Parkev added MasterCard to balance his existing Visa position and take advantage of what he considers an overreaction to regulatory risks in Europe. He highlights the company's exceptional profitability and its role in diversifying his portfolio away from AI-heavy tech stocks.
