Wednesday, July 18, 2012, 12:10 PM Harvard is taking a shine to natural resources - particularly timber (WOOD, CUT) - maybe at the expense of private equity and hedge funds, according to the normally secretive endowment chief Jane Mendillo. Of distressed credit in Europe, she's interested, but notes it's the hot new investment area and will take a pass for now. Comment! [Commodities]
Tuesday, May 29, 2012, 2:55 PM The slowdown in China's economic growth may not be the only reason behind a rapid decline of U.S. lumber exports as well as a big drop in shares of timber REITs like PCH and PCL and forest product firms such as WY. Another reason: U.S. wood, whose prices are up 27% YTD, is no longer a bargain, which could mean a better year for the timber business than investors suspect. 2 Comments [Commodities, U.S. Economy]

Tuesday, January 31, 2012, 3:37 PM Potlatch (PCH -7.3%) takes a hit after missing its Q4 estimates, swinging to a surprise loss on harvest deferrals due to depressed timber prices in its southern U.S. markets. The company also issues a cautious outlook for 2012, saying the housing market remains depressed and expects only a modest improvement in housing starts in 2012. Comment! [Commodities, On the Move]

Thursday, January 19, 2012, 11:24 AM SA author Bear Fight makes the case for timber stocks - pointing to the sector's low correlation to other asset classes and the ability for investors to hedge against inflation. Another intriguing feature in an era of low interest rates, timber companies can offer steady dividends (3%-4%) by buying land with different maturity dates. Favorite sector picks: RYN, PCL, PCH, WY. Comment! [Quick Ideas]
Monday, December 5, 2011, 7:06 AM REIT Potlatch (PCH) cuts its dividend by 39% in a bid to save money after slow demand and weak pricing for wood led the company to reduce harvest levels at its 1.45M acres of timberland. The cut leaves the company a 4% yielder based on Friday's $31.26 close. (PR) 1 Comment [Commodities, U.S. Economy]
Thursday, October 28, 2010, 9:41 AM Potlatch (PCH): Q3 EPS of $0.45 misses by $0.14. Revenue of $159M (-3%) vs. $170M. (PR) Comment!
