Industrial Names That Haven’t Gotten Ahead of Themselves

Fri, 29 May 2009 19:19:27 GMT

Today’s markets maintain a level of anxiety that another leg-down is coming, namely the notion that we may revisit our former lows of March. As the more bullish investors continue to invest in financial and IT names, it would seem that the vast majority of market movers are taking profits off of the table in the industrial sector of the economy. But while the money seems to be rotating out of the early-cycle names that seem to have gotten ahead of themselves, many of which are up considerably from the bottom, I reiterate that there remains significant opportunity in cyclical-aerospace.

Best Stocks Of 2009 Review: The First Third

Sun, 10 May 2009 17:46:29 GMT

More than a third of the year has passed and the markets have rebounded nicely from their lows to turn a small profit on the year. It seems that the worst may be behind us when it comes to equity prices as many stocks have rallied more than 50% this year alone. Here at Bullish Bankers we published a “Best Stocks of 2009? newsletter at the beginning of the year, and our equities have performed very admirably when compared to our benchmark, the S&P 500. This article is designed to give a recap of how our equities have performed and give some additional explanation to our initial stock picking process. Through Friday, May 8th, our BB2009 Index has outperformed the S&P 500 by 11.51% on a geometric basis ex-dividend payments. Beside each of the sectors I have listed our three picks and the comparable ETF to show our relative performance on a sector by sector basis.[More...]

Finally a Winners list with more than gold on it... it's been a while.As mentioned throughout the week, if you were very nimble this was the week to buy retail, homebuilders, and some financials. The most troubled, bounced the most this week (short covering definitely - real buying? who knows).

Traction for Recovery? It's All About the Sales

Sun, 01 Nov 2009 18:50:00 GMT

The argument that the economic rebound is for real, that the tide has turned for more companies than not, was bolstered by an Inquirer analysis of third-quarter revenue changes at companies in the Philadelphia area.
Revenue growth is crucial to replacing the 7.2 million U.S. jobs lost since December 2007.
Through Friday, 33 nonfinancial companies in the region with at least $10 million in quarterly revenue had reported results for the period around Sept. 30.
