This is the kind of CDO the poor bond insurers were fraud in to insure:www.reuters.com/articl...
This is fraud and AMBAC and MBIA do not have to insure this kind of crooks, they should clear up their books from this structure finance vehicles to regain value and their triple A ratings again.

To all Banks and Broker Firms: just FIRE SALE all structure finance vehicles i.e.: CDO-ABS-MBS-SIV if you want to live period. ReplyReplacement Candidates for David Merkel's Portfolio: From AA to ZZ [view article]
4-5 index etfs probably would do it as well. don't tell me you can keep track and properly analyze and follow all of your holdings. way too many.zero value added. Reply

If that is your replacement list can we see the rest of what you currently own. At first glance it seems like you may toss the majority of your energy, financials, and tech holdings. Can we get a sector percentage to give some clarification? Here I will make your task much easier, stocks on your list I would hang on to would include: AA, AYR, BDK, BKS, CBI, CMI, COMS, CPB, CSCO, DD, DRYS, DUK, FCX, FTO, HELE, HNZ, HOC, HON, IPSU, IR, JCI, KCI, KMX, NVS, OSK, PAYX, PPC, PPG, PRU, RTN, SNY, TSO, TTC, TXT, VE, VZ, WAG, WY.

David, it's nice to hear you are in agreement. Actually, I have been in dry-bulk for a while, and bought NM because they bought a port terminal with grain silos in Uruguay. Its heavily asset-based, even if heavily leveraged, but I favor asset based equities. The Uruguay purchase, and they are keeping the previous owners on-board, is another key factor that really sets NM apart from the other dry-bulk shippers. BTW - I invest only in dry-bulk. Less risk of environmental disasters than tankers.On Jul 07 10:04 AM David White wrote:

NM is a good bet. It has excellent value. It has an extremely low PE and FPE. It also has an excellent Price to Book value ratio. Further it has both a new fleet in South America (for the river traffic mostly) which is supposed to begin adding 35% to EBITDA beginning in the 4th quarter of this year. It got pushed further downward in the recent market move in that direction, so it is an excellent buy now. ReplyReplacement Candidates for David Merkel's Portfolio: From AA to ZZ [view article]
Very valuable too me.....it says too replace your loosers with winners and have a selection process....most of these stocks will probablely be winners and he knows it and says you do not have too pick the very best just one that will outperform your loosers...this is very insightfull and goes with the golden rules of trading...increase winnners and decrease loosers....

No value to me, completely useless in it's present form. ReplyReplacement Candidates for David Merkel's Portfolio: From AA to ZZ [view article]
very silly article-no value unless some has a week of time to review. ReplyReplacement Candidates for David Merkel's Portfolio: From AA to ZZ [view article]
David, In late January you liked VSH. Today it is much cheaper, but every quarter they seem to take a new non-recurring charge that turns out to be anything but non-recurring.The stock was moving up from 8.5 to 10.5 and now after a couple of terrible weeks, its back under 9 again. It looks cheap to me, but I don't see any catalyst on the horizon for it to go up. What are your thoughts today on VSH? Reply
