Janus Henderson Group Stock Discussion

75% return appears to be better than the next higher 14% fund technically. Unless someone can point out something special in the others, I will choose the Janus Henderson balanced fund. This fund has a 4-star rating with Morningstar, I think.

Janus Henderson Group's lower P/E ratio is due to its forecasted growth being less than the wider market. Investors' belief in limited earnings improvement could curb share price growth.

Janus Henderson leans towards credit, predicting further spread tightening if the 'soft landing' narrative persists. The firm is drawn to high-grade firms for their blend of credit spreads and interest rate sensitivity. Despite financial health uncertainties, the backdrop improves with the soft landing and friendlier central banks.

The market's valuation of the company doesn't align with its earnings growth. Its future performance may hinge on balance sheet strength. Despite a 15% TSR falling short of the market, it outperforms the 5-year average annual return, suggesting potential new investor interest.

Due to decreasing earnings and large payout ratio there is concern for Janus Henderson Group's dividend sustainability and the prospects for future growth.
