Diamond Member Pelican Press 0 Posted April 5, 2024 Diamond Member Share Posted April 5, 2024 ‘Big Short’ investor Steve Eisman is ******** big on infrastructure and here are his top picks Steve Eisman of “The Big Short” fame has been bullish on infrastructure stocks after studying the industry for the past two years, and here are the companies he likes the most. The investor who called and profited from the subprime mortgage crisis grew fond of infrastructure companies on the back of increased government spending. Eisman, senior portfolio manager at Neuberger Berman, said he has narrowed the universe of investable stocks to 80 stocks. “Of those 80, I would say about 30 are very, very interesting. The other 50 are not so interesting at this point,” he said in Bloomberg’s “Odd Lots” podcast . The stocks Eisman passed up included residential solar companies, which already had a great run during the pandemic as major beneficiaries of zero interest rates. However, as rates stay higher, these stocks have stalled, Eisman said. Instead, Eisman likes solar panel companies that sell to utilities, which he said are doing well from a fundamental perspective. Eaton Corporation , which is involved in electrification for factories, is one stock that he finds attractive. Eisman said he doesn’t own the stock currently, but did a lot of research on the firm. The stock is up 36% this year after a 53% rally in 2023.

Eisman said he started buying after the companies relisted in the U.S. in September.
