      <title>Cliffs Natural Resources (CLF) is cut to Sell from Hold at Dahlman Rose, which believes the run-up in iron ore prices has run its course with CLF most vulnerable to the risk of a quick reversal. The firm also cuts BHP Billiton (BHP) from Buy to Hold to reflect weaker price expectations across its product spectrum, and lowers its price target for Rio Tinto (RIO) to $70 from $95. CLF -1.2% premarket.</title>

        <![CDATA[Good summary of the current situation.  In addition, CLF has a Book Value of $53.96 per share. If you reduce it by the Goodwill of $1.152 Billion or $8.11 per share, the current stock price is still well below Book Value.<br/>There has been some discussion of the impairment of Goodwill.  For there to been a write down of Goodwill, it must be pernmanent impairment.  I do not think a temporary price deduction of iron ore would meet the test of pernmanent impairment.<br/>The key is cashflow, reducing capital exp is one major item, the company is addressing to meet its cash flow needs.  I see a great short squeeze coming up soon on this stock.]]>

        <![CDATA[I would pick GDF Suez instead of FT. One of the worlds largest utility. 10% yield, selling well below book value. Stock is down 50% from $40 to $20.  If you add back depreciation and amortization of Goodwill payout is 33%.  Operates in 50 countries in electric generation, water and natural gas.  Expanding its natural gas operations in SE Asia. 36% is owned by the French Government which is good is someways and a drawback with the current government but this is priced into the stock price.  ]]>

        <![CDATA[The assets of CHK are booked at cost. The Fair Market Value of the leases/land are much higher based on third party sales. Given this, the formula does not work for company that has Assets that have greatly appreciated in value over the cost carried on the Balance Sheet.<br/>The major question is there a ready market for the assets? I believe there is based on sales to TOT and STO, etc. <br/>In short, the governance and cash flow problems will be worked out when some of the assets are sold.  This process could get ugly.<br/>Right now it is a timing issue. Buyers are holding off to see if they wait can cut a better deal. Sooner or later, one or two will move and move quickly to pick up some great assets the CHK holds. <br/>This is not for the faint of heart investor. Stockholders who can stand the pain will be made whole.  The big looser in this game will be the CEO who pushed the company into this position.  There is a God.]]>

        <![CDATA[To add my two cents about CEFs:<br/>First, never by a CEF IPO. The price will drop right after issued. Usually takes about three months to sell at a discount after IPO.<br/><br/>Second: Buy CEF when there is a panic in the market. Most holders of CEF are retail investors and sell when the pain gets to great. Great time to buy CEFs at great discounts when no one wants them.<br/><br/>Buying CEFs is counter intuitive. Buy only when there is blood in the streets. Hold it for the price to recover and collect your dividends.<br/><br/>Third: Never buy a CEF that is returning your capital.]]>

      <title> Chesapeake Energy (CHK) is saddled with $1.4B of previously unreported liabilities due over coming years from off-balance sheet deals, WSJ reports. The company has commitments to banks requiring delivery of specific amounts of oil and gas. These so-called VPPs are essentially debts, with payments due in fuel rather than cash. Shares take a tumble, -1.7%. </title>

        <![CDATA[This is old news and the WSJ is being used by hedge funds to drive the price of CHK down to increased the value of their short positions. Since they have run out of new stories, they start to print old stories. Once they scare the retail investors out of their money, they will buy the company's stock cheap to cover their naked short positions.<br/><br/>This is a classic manulipation of the stock price by a few large hedge funds using the media.  The CEO has played into their hands like a fool.]]>

        <![CDATA[Great article,  I think you need to add back the non cash items of Depreciation and Amortization for GDF Suez to get the payout ratio because as a utility depreciation is a huge number and this company has $46 Billion of Goodwill on it balance sheet.  Then the payout ratio is around 34% instead of 83% which is much more reasonable.<br/><br/>Thanks,]]>
