I think you should check out Middleby. It looks to be an extremely solid performer.

You're exactly right; I do not have any position in GE, nor do any of my clients (or Freund Investing itself). Thanks for clarifying.

As for the point-of-view, I personally feel that GE will go lower, but I also realize that I could be wrong, and that I can see an argument for thinking this is the bottom. I'm simply suggesting that if investors do decide to jump in, they might want to consider not going all-in.

Thanks for the comments everyone.

I'm not going to take you on the bet because we'd be betting on the same thing.

Miller at Gazprom actually said 1.7 trillion by 2017 I believe.

Why are you so defensive? We both agree on the same thing. Let me guess, you're just trying to pick a fight. That's cool. Keep on trying; I couldn't care less!]]> Fri, 01 Aug 2008 13:51:08 -0400

"It’s a $250 billion dollar company that is likely to be valued in the trillions"

Trillions is PLURAL, meaning several trillion. Thanks for your absolutely worthless comments.]]> Thu, 31 Jul 2008 11:44:43 -0400

"Ocourse, you could always stay away from the entire financial sector altogether. There are many great businesses out there that are undervalued. We highlight many of them in both our Investment Advisor Newsletter (freundinvesting.com/in...) and our Small Cap Momentum model portfolio (www.fiportfolios.com)."

In fact, our Model Portfolio is outperforming the S&P 500 by 15% in the two months since it's inception. Our Investment Advisor newsletter is also outperforming and boasts a 70% accuracy. Check em out.]]> Wed, 30 Jul 2008 12:23:38 -0400

SO WHAT?! Why does that matter? People need help! He's bashing a site that helps people get the help they need. If that's disgusting, I don't want to know what isn't disgusting to Mozilo.

You sir, are misinformed. The letter sent to Mozilo by Mr. Bailey was not simply a template. He let Countrywide know about his circumstances. Do a little more research before you spew misinformation. You think that every reporter got it wrong and you're right? hah! good one.]]> Thu, 22 May 2008 16:42:37 -0400

Yes, it takes two to tango, but potential homeowners didn't stand a chance when barraged with such "fantastic" loan terms. The lenders were in a position of power, both financially and intellectually, and they abused it. Plain and simple.

exCFC emp,
So what if they have the same wording? Many individuals who were caught in this scheme are probably not too smart, and need help drafting a letter that maximizes their potential for being helped. CFC specifically TOLD borrowers to talk to them. They didn't say "don't use a template!" And why would they?

Bottom line, good people who didn't know what they were getting into need help, and Angelo, in his mansion, calls them disgusting. What a sad world we live in.]]> Thu, 22 May 2008 11:32:26 -0400
