Question

In two paragraphs, discuss your overall conclusions. Would you recommend purchasing common stock in Marriott International Inc.? Why or Why not?

Answer 1

As on today, the stock price is $94.00
I would recommend purchasing Marriot Inc for a long term investment. It is a well established brand in more than 100 countries. So every traveller knows Marriot be it from any country.
Though its results for past two quarters March 2020 and June 2020 have been poor but that was due to the Corona virus pandemic and most countries had lockdowns. so in coming future, once international flights are back on track, hotel industry will do well again.
It has consistently given good returns over a longer duration and

It has a good Dividend Yield of around 2.75% which is roughly 30% above average hotel industry payouts( 2.10%) which can provide some passive income till the time the stock price rises
Today, it is available at a cheaper P/E multiple and i see it as a buying opportunity and hold for a minimum period two to three years.
