Consumer Staple Stocks Are Not Always Safe Haven Investments [view article]
I have become financially independent off consumer goods companies.The key is the proper entry point. My free website and my book explains all that ReplyThis Week's Key Earnings Reports [view article]
I should have pointed out that the current PE (46) and FPE (10) are likely to decrease considerably with the earnings announcement. The PE should move to the mid 30's range. If you add in the predicted earnings for the following quarter (3 months from now), the PE would go down to the low 20's. At this point you should begin to see that the stock is not that outrageously priced currently. It has a long way it can move up. ReplyThis Week's Key Earnings Reports [view article]
POT definitely seems like a great option play through earnings, especially since it is down drastically today. Oil and grain futures have been down so far today. Plus there is the potential strike at POT of the steelworkers. Even with all this, POT ought to beat on earnings. It seems extremely likely to guide higher with the recent price increase by Canpotex (+21% on potash prices). Even with oil and grain prices currently going down, this seems like a great play. Plus the geoploitical situation in Iran is very much in play with regard to oil after Secretary Rice's recent comments. The hoped for success in negotiations is clearly not going to occur. If anything Iran has more forcefully denied that they have any intention of changing their nuclear strategy. The market seems to be letting this news slip off the front burner for a while. But that will almost certainly be a very short while. POT should go up on earnings. Plus even though the recent bumper crop announcements are though likely to curb grain prices, it is not clear that they will have any effect on the currently planned fertilizer prices (or demand). It is also not clear that next year's crops will be as good as this year's even with lots of fertilizer. Again demand is likely to rise going into next year.

For those Amazon fans (AMZN) I would be very carefull. I would check out the latest tricks that are happening with AMZN and GE-Money. It may not be Amazon's fault but it certainly will cost amazon some revenue and income. I have since shorted Amazon. If you look at a long history of AMZN stock. It looks like it hit a top resistance and is heading down.Check out:

Silly to list WB as more closely watched than BAC or POT... ReplyThis Week's Key Earnings Reports [view article]
My money is on BAC over Apple. Apple will have record earnings and its stock will fall 20%. BAC will lose only $5B, thats better than $5.5B expected, so a pop of 30% is in order! Welcome to Wallstreet. Home of the crooked! ReplyThis Week's Key Earnings Reports [view article]
Ummmm, Bank of America, anyone? Hello? It's hard to believe BAC won't be as closely watched as WB or AAPL. ReplyOptions Trader: Thursday Outlook [view article]
Thanks fat - Hope you took the money and ran!Bbody - The dollar was 40% stronger when oil was 70% cheaper. It's the disposal of $12Bn a day used on a commodity that is burned the same day (effectively burning the dollars) that is destroying our currency. Dollars flood the market as they are exchanged for what becomes nothing as soon as it's used and end up in the hands of OPEC, who don't need them all, allowing them to spend up for things they want creating more global inflation.
If I paid you $2 a gallon for your tap water and you collected $1M a day at a huge profit, then you would end up inflating your local economy spending that money. If I paid you only in Lira and you tried spreading that around, you would find it was harder and harder to pass off as you push more of it on your local vendors and the local banks were swimming in it. Multiply that $1M a day by 12,000 and that is what is happening to the dollar - globally 4 Trillion of them are being used to buy oil per year and the consumers end up with nothing of lasting value for their dollars while the producers get more and more dollars every day and they do last, they pile up and up and up until they become worth what they look like - trash. Your currency cannot have value if you flood the world with it....

Good call on rimm yesterday! ReplyOptions Trader: Thursday Outlook [view article]
I would be very worried when OIL price starts to drop. It may give the market a short term boost but ensuing demand destruction of DOLLAR will be ten times worse for US economy than $140 OIL. ReplyTime to Buy PepsiCo? [view article]
I have been buying shares of PEP through its DSPP for a year now. This is a stock that has what Warren Buffet calls "a wide moat." It is a leader in every segment, it has a respectable P/E, low debt, and best of all a dividend that continues to increase. This is stock for investors that want to build concrete wealth over many years that happens to be on sale. It is not for day-traders that want to attempt to make a quick buck. ReplySome Bargain Stocks to Consider Buying [view article]
I own 4 of these stocks. I purchase thru their transfer agents and also reinvest all dividends thru a DRIP. Funny you should quote Buffett as these sound like Graham's selection criteria. ReplySome Bargain Stocks to Consider Buying [view article]
I seriously consider these names as "just a jumping off point".. And, I'm not sure if dividend increases are a valid reason to buy in this market anyway. Look at a chart of PPG (Which I have been following as it keeps sinking) for example. Here's a company that has recently dumped its auto glass business... But is still leveraged to auto and industry in many ways.I think that pulling up the old 'boom-bust cycle chart' and maybe looking at some of these names based on the stage that you think we might be in would be a better jumping off point.... Well.. excepting anything to do with finance or real-estate that is..
