ACCO Brands (ACCO)- Trades at only 6X earnings and has a beta of 3.8. Any company with a beta over one is considered to be a bigger mover. The technicals look promising as well since ACCO is on the 200 day moving average (black line). This makes me enthusiastic about the stock. So, I would…
Facebook (FB) has been hated since its debut. People worried about how the social media company would actually make money. Advertising yes, on pc’s- but not on mobile devices. FB needed to address this problem and, judging by their last quarter, they did. Their revenue last year 0, this year- 1 billion. If Zuckerberg is…
Took gains in UPRO (S&P 500) & MS (Morgan Stanley) after sending out our last alert. We swapped into BlackRock (BLK) because the risk/ reward and dividend (2.8%) was better. They are also a leader in the fast growing ETF (Exchange Traded Fund) business owning nearly half of the market share. Investors, permanately scarred from…
Market has taken a bearish tone this week. Bears are complaining that stocks are tired from the run-up and could stall at these new highs, triggering mass technical selling. They also think earnings have not been so stellar due to companies having no “top-line growth.” Europe could come back to bite us as well, they…
Stocks are off to a promising start for the year. January was a good month for us but let’s not get complacent. As much as I want to jump in this market with both hands and feet due to my bullish sentiments, history has had a way of teaching me otherwise when addressing new highs….
We have been salivating for the chance to buy stocks on any sort of pullback but never got the chance. (I know, it sounds like I have been repeating myself). All the while, the market has crept higher and investors have been either waiting to get in or are scared that we are at all-time…
Markets are creeping higher to end the week. I, as well as others, have money to put to work but fear jumping in at the wrong time. I just read “Diary of a Hedgehog” which greatly opened my eyes to the fact that other big fund managers are still licking their wounds from the crash…
Markets have had a big run to start the new year in 2013. Stocks are at multi- year highs and sentiment is improving by the day. $17 billion worth of funds have come into equity markets this week- a record high since 2008. So, clearly the picture is improving; It is just important to note…
(Update at bottom). The markets had another big up day. We trimmed a little into the strength to be prudent and added a bargain name etf -TECL- to boost exposure to our underperforming tech void in the portfolio. (EMC was down today on a huge up day, no bueno.) Some follow through from this rally…
