In this age of hybrid working, our pets are often in the background as we work. For the SIX team, this means our pets are hearing us waffle on and on about ethics and share trading. Have they picked up any nuggets of investment wisdom in the process? We sat down with the SIX team’s pets to find out which ASX stocks they have on their watchlist at the moment.
Remember, what’s right for Peppa or Mac N Cheese may not be right for you. Any mention of a company is not a recommendation to trade. It’s important to do your own research before investing. You need to be human to create an account on SIX.
You can read the ethical profiles and buy shares on the SIX app for the stocks below, by clicking on the links.
Peppa
The biggest name among the SIX team pets, Peppa is a Sydney icon who is part of the Seagull Patrol at the Sydney Opera House. When Peppa’s not protecting your hot chips, she’s got her eye on the markets. Given the fulfillment Peppa has found in her own employment, she’s added online employment marketplace Seek to her watchlist.
Freddie
A food-motivated and impulsive trader, Freddie went all-in on white goods manufacturer Breville Group when he saw the slow cooker dragged out of the cupboard to make his doggy risotto. He’s also keeping an eye on Bega Cheese. He’ll be quick to swoop in if Bega Cheese drops.
Beryl and Flo
Beryl is an aspirational fashion influencer with an eye towards Ralph Lauren’s luxury pet range. She has bought shares in Scentre Group (who lease to Westfield shopping centres) so that she can say to the cashiers “Don’t you know I own this entire building?”
Flo is a foodie who’s willing to eat anything. She’s invested in Domino’s Pizza in the hope dividends are paid out in the form of seafood pizza.
SCG: Scentre Group
DMP: Dominos Pizza Enterprises Ltd
Drew and Mac n Cheese
Siblings Drew and Mac n Cheese share a passion for home security. They have put their money where their barks are and invested in Harvey Norman for its range of alarms and home monitoring systems.
Their other passion is comfort. Their little legs require beds that are easy to climb into, so they see the value in supporting retailers like Temple and Webster with a big range of bedding options.
Mishka
A luscious coat also means a coating of cat hair everywhere that Mishka has been. It’s hard for Mishka to believe that a supplier of terrifying products like vacuums have much of a future. That’s the thinking behind Mishka’s high risk shorting of Kogan shares.
*Mishka must do this through one of the unethical broking platforms.
Thimble
Thimble loves garbage, but there’s only so much he can do on his own to prevent Australia’s waste crisis. That’s why he’s a big supporter of Cleanaway Waste Management.
CWY: Cleanaway Waste Management Limited
Toby
When Toby sees his owners put on their Macpac gear, he knows he’s about to have a great time. Toby doesn’t think the positive brand value has been fully factored into Super Retail Group’s share price (owner of Macpac, Rebel sport, and BCF).
Lulu
If there’s one thing Lulu loves more than eating fish, it’s confrontation. So the chance to combine the two was too much to ignore. Lulu bought shares in Coles and Woolworths as part of the Save the Skate campaign.
