Domino's Pizza Enterprises Ltd (ASX: DMP)
The Domino's share price touched on a multi-year high of $66.96 on Tuesday. Investors have been buying the pizza chain operator's shares during the pandemic after the closure of restaurants led to increasing demand for its pizzas. Towards the end of April the company revealed that its Japan and Germany businesses were performing particularly strongly in the second half. Australian same store sales have been positive during the period as well. All in all, it looks well-placed to deliver a solid full year result in August.
Fortescue Metals Group Limited (ASX: FMG)
The Fortescue share price hit a new record high of $15.25 yesterday. Investors were buying the iron ore producer's shares after the price of the steel-making ingredient jumped higher again. Supply disruption in Brazil and robust demand in China have combined to send the spot iron ore price comfortably over the US$100 a tonne level. In light of this, Fortescue is likely to be generating significant free cash flow at present. Especially given its low cost operations and improving production grades.
MNF Group Ltd (ASX: MNF)
The MNF share price hit a 52-week high of $5.88 on Tuesday. The telecommunications and unified communication technologies provider's shares have been on fire during the pandemic. This is because the working from home initiative has led to a surge in demand for voice and collaboration technology. At the end of April, the company revealed that it was on track to achieve its operating earnings guidance of $36 million to $39 million in FY 2020. This represents a 32% to 43.4% year on year increase.
