Drikus Combrinck from CapiCraft chose Apple as his stock pick of the day, while Jean-Pierre Verster from Fairtree Capital chose Fiserv. Apple is one of the few stocks listed on Nasdaq that is not trading at a 30-plus price-earnings ratio, making it quite cheap. Ninety percent of Apple owners will continue to buy Apple products because they are tied to apps like iTunes, which is a large component of Apple. Fiserv is a transaction-based global information technology business. The company effectively does the “plumbing” for banks and more than 90% of its businesses are in the US, where there are hundreds of banks.
