The note pointed specifically at larger-screen iPhones and the iWatch as drivers of accelerated growth and margin expansion.
MasterCard (NYSE: MA)
"Fundamental growth potential remains strong and we believe the company can continue to generate 20 percent+ EPS growth over the next several years."
The firm sees the regulatory risk in Europe as "manageable", but cautioned it may take a while for the issue to play out. Additionally, the firm noted MasterCard's ability to generate cash allows for continued share buybacks.
Nike (NYSE: NKE)
"Bears say valuation is too high and Nike is too big to grow sales at the Street's forecasted high-single-digit rate. Our view is NKE can deliver a 10% annual 3-year total shareholder return even if its P/E falls to its LT avg."
As key values drivers, the firm pointed to futures growth (metric for orders not-yet-delivered), total sales growth and operating margin.
