    Six Tech Stocks Worth Their Weight in Cash- Barron's [view article]
    Agree that TSCM is a buy here (profitable and close to cash), but it's a media company, not a tech stock. Reply

    SCOR is cheap on a deal comp basis. Pure plays like SCOR got taken out on a 4x sales and 20x EBITDA basis last 24 months Of course, markets were different then, so applying an arbitrary 20% discount to those metrics, you get SCOR pretty darn attractive @ $12 a share.

    $12 would reflect a reasonable 16x to my 09 EBITDA/sh estimate of 70-80c and 3.2 its 08 expected sales of $120M. I used 35M shares outstanding to keep it simple.

    The tell will be what we get on Q4, which are out on 10/31 I think. I am looking for 7-9c, but there is a good chance my numbers are too high.Good guidance on ARPU heading out of the year as well as net add customers in this last qtr could rocket the stock, on the other hand.

    While the whole online ad market may fare decently, many key sectors could take a big dent out of growth. Financial service companies foot some of the largest bills. It may be only a matter of time before they pull back. (And its surprising they haven't done so already) Reply

    That's why one should always stay protected in the stock market with an intelligent exit strategy. So they can get out protecting their profits when the weakness starts to show itself. And if they entered in at the wrong time, then at least losses are kept to a minimum. Reply

    I wouldn't go so far to say that the online advertising market won't be affected by the downturn. The largest buyers of ads online are autos and financials, neither of which are doing particularly well right now.

    That said, I do think that certain plays are a steal right now, specifically SCOR, VCLK, and OMTR. Plays that enable a company to get more out of the dollars they do invest online seems like they would do well when everyone starts to penny-pinch. All three have been beaten hard by the markets recently and can be picked up on the cheap.     Reply

    You are so right. the secular trends in online are enough to mute the downturn. Online ad spending will no escape on unscathed but i think a bigger knife will be applied to TV where advertisers are beginning to realize that they are wasting their time and money preaching to Tivo boxes. Reply

    The Most-Trafficked Financial Websites: Yahoo Continues to Lead [view article]
    Yahoo is pretty awesome, yahoo finance is my homepage, I still prefer them to all the others. There is a little known blog that is pretty cool too. I do a bit of blogging and it's brand new, but it explains finance in a way I have never seen before. Check out financialtales.com
    It explains difficult financial topics very simply.     Reply

    AIG: The Cramer Conspiracy Theory [view article]
    Cramer knows his stuff. I don't always agree with what he says, but he provides some unique insights on the market. He does his research, and knows how to make money in the market.

    Why don't you give stock recommendations on a daily basis, so we can criticize you on your mistakes. I think people just like to hate on Cramer because of his popularity and eccentricity, but there are a million other clowns out there who are worst.     Reply

    Hmmm. A buck a day for expert stock advice? Bargain. Regarding the shorting, Cramer is right - when the SEC temporarily halted naked shorting in financials, things got better immediately. Funny thing...the SEC announces comprehensive rules last night regarding naked shorting applicable to all stocks...and today we get a big rally. Coincidence? I don't think so. Yes, there are fundamental underlying problems in finance - but they have been vastly compounded by raging shorts who have made some assets worth 1/10th their real value, by selling what they don't have to sell. That's not good for anyone. Reply

    Cramer knows how the street works and is a reliable source of information about manipulation. His show is entertainment, as he himself admits, and anybody who invests pased on Jim's rapid fire commentary deserves what he gets. Jim would tell him "Buy and homework."

    Mario Cuomo is going to check for manipulative short-selling - I believe he will find plenty.     Reply

    Doug Kass stated today that the most vocal TV pundit, etc (presumably Cramer), can only recommend BUY because his sponsors will not let him short or recommend shorting! Also, Kass states the brokerage houses were shorting each other, too! And the number of naked shorts was not enough to cause this....read his explanation....and he had no trouble borrowing stock to short ; he's the only one that's been right on this all along. Reply

    Cramer's Action Alerts are pretty useless for trading advice. You can't trade when he trades because it's too late by the time he tells you what he did or even what he is going to do and because of disclosure rules he tells you way too late. So you will lose money even in the rare cases he makes money.

    Remember, and he always says, it's a CHARITABLE TRUST. He just threw $3 million in a pot. He probably already took a deduction on it when he set it up so it's just a giveaway for him.

    The newsletter is somewhat useful for newbies with an online trading account to begin understanding some of the basic trading psychology and strategies - but very basic.

    Cramer on his show is at his best when he is calling Wall St. on the carpet. He knows the tricks and probably invented some of them and deserves credit for giving a tongue lashing to the idiots who abuse the market and fail to regulate it and themselves. He says what a lot of investors are thinking and wish they could say to the SEC, the Fed and the hedge funds.

    Hey if you think you can do better, go for it! There is plenty of room for more Cramers on tv.

    Cramer and Greenspan both like to rewrite history . Both are more intent on writing books and talking smack . The big fish will continue to ea the small fish. JNJ MO PM KFT Berkshire etc will continue to roll on.From 1957-2003 18 ofthe top 20 S&P companies were pharma or consumer goods companies when reinvested dividends are taken into consideration. Reply
