There are a lot of options for investors to choose from on the Australian share market.
So many, it can hurt your brain trying to decide which ones to buy and which ones to avoid with a $1,000 investment.
But two ASX 200 shares that could be classed as no-brainers right now are listed below. Here's why leading brokers rate these stocks highly:
The first no-brainer ASX 200 share for investors to consider for a $1,000 investment is Goodman Group.
It is a global industrial property and digital infrastructure company that owns, develops, and manages high-quality, sustainable properties.
This portfolio has been in demand with end users and underpinned strong earnings growth over the past decade.
The good news is that Jarden believes this positive form can continue, particularly given Goodman's exposure to the artificial intelligence boom through its data centre pipeline. The broker recently said:
We upgrade our short-to medium-term earnings forecasts to reflect this and believe our upgraded A$40.00 target price potentially still may not fully reflect the data-center opportunity over the next 5-10 years.
As mentioned above, the broker has a buy rating and $40.00 price target on Goodman's shares.
Another no-brainer ASX 200 share that could be a buy with your $1,000 is Life360.
It is a rapidly growing family connection and safety company aiming to keep people close to the ones they love. As per its last update, the company's eponymous app had a massive 76.9 million monthly active users (MAU) across more than 170 countries.
Bell Potter is very bullish on Life360. In fact, it believes that there is a chance the company will outperform its guidance in FY 2024 and then release strong guidance for the year ahead. It said:
Life360 remains a key pick of ours for the following key reasons: 1. We expect a strong 2024 result with some chance of a beat to the EBITDA guidance; 2. We expect strong 2025 guidance of revenue growth >20% and positive statutory EBITDA; and 3. We expect the company to be added to the S&P/ASX 100 Index when the next rebalance occurs in early March.
It then highlights Life360's strong competitive moat as a reason to be positive. Bell Potter adds:
There is some debate around whether inclusion in the large cap index will be a good thing or not but we believe it will be positive given Life360 is global, is the market leader with a strong competitive moat, is founder led and is EBITDA and cash flow positive.
The broker currently has a buy rating and $27.75 price target on its shares.
