  • 5 BRIC Stocks Being Snapped Up By Insiders [View article]
    We often run screens on one data point (such as insider buying or institutional selling) because it allows for a sufficient number of satisfying stocks, from which investors can begin their own analysis. We write both positive and negative screens with the goal of presenting an interesting starting point for investors.

    Thanks for your feedback, we will keep these issues in mind going forward.

  • 15 Metal Commodity Stocks Undervalued by Enterprise Value [View article]
    Hi A.S. Montreal - the statement is based on the company's beta. Since it's around beta = 3, it implies that, statistically, the stock is 3 times more volatile than the general market.

    Hope that helps!

  • 4 Stocks Snapped Up by Insiders Ahead of Earnings This Week [View article]
    Yes, at first glance the insider buying doesn't seem significant. But when you consider the parameters of the screen, these companies deserve closer attention.

    We started a screen on 200 companies with market caps above $300M reporting this week. We then crunched numbers on insider buying, and these are the ONLY companies that had net purchases over the last 6 months.

    In other words, out of all the companies reporting this week (market caps > $300M), these are the only ones that didn't have net insider selling.

    We thought that was important enough for an article. As always, we're not "pumping stocks" - we're trying to come up with interesting screens that you can use as a starting point for your own analysis.

    Hope that clarifies the purpose of this article.

  • 14 Cramer Buy Recommendations - A Review [View article]
    We've also had our eye on FNFG - institutional and mutual funds have been net buyers for two consecutive quarters. Everyone's expecting the company to keep boosting dividends...what do you think?

  • 11 Highly Shorted Stocks With Accounts Receivable Flags [View article]
    Hi CheckYourMath,

    Thanks for your message. I think the confusion comes from the time intervals we're comparing. We're comparing quarterly data, and making a y/y comparison for similar quarters...

    CoStar Group, Inc.: Total Revenue for 3 mo. ending 12/31/2009 at $54.63M. Total Revenue for 3 mo. ending 12/31/10 at $58.19M. Change for Total Revenue quarterly data y/y at 6.52%.

    Total Receivables, Net as of 12/31/2009 at $12.86M. Total Receivables, Net as of 12/31/10 at $18.03M. Change for Receivables quarterly data y/y at 40.2%.

    Quarterly Total Current Assets as of 12/31/2009 at $247.41M, thus $12.86M Total Receivables, Net for that time period represents 5.2% of Total Current Assets. Quarterly Total Current Assets as of 12/31/2009 at $239.17M, thus $18.03M Total Receivables for that time period represents 7.54% of Total Current Assets.

    Hope that helps.

  • 3 Oversold Biotech Stocks Being Snapped up By Insiders [View article]
    Hi Hermanbrut,

    Thanks for your message. As we mentioned above, the data is based on average insider activity over the last two years. We choose to take a longer-term perspective, since short-term insider selling is sometimes linked to compensation packages, and not always indicative of a company in trouble. Here's the source for THRX:

    Hope that helps!

  • 20 Undervalued Companies Boosting Earnings Guidance [View article]
    Hi all,

    Yes, we do not allow our analysts to hold any of the stocks we write about. Also, we never write about companies we have a relationship with. We're very serious about unbiased, independent research.

    Thanks!
