Bulls Back On Track?

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 16:21:18 GMT

Good morning. With chants of "Dow 10K… Dow 10K" once again rising from the streets at the corner of Broad and Wall yesterday, it is easy to believe that the bulls are back on track and that we'll soon be looking at new highs for the stock market. And when reviewing the data inputs to yesterday's 204 point romp, it is also easy to don the Dow10K hat once again and join in on the celebration.[More...]

Your Kind of Day?

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 19:06:48 GMT

As a rule, I try not to read too terribly much into a "Fed Day" as there is usually a big batch of volatility that may or may not mean much of anything come the dawn of the next day.

But in any event, the volatility after a Fed announcement, while fun to watch, may not be telling as to what to expect in the future.[More...]

STEC Inc (NASDAQ:STEC): Colour On Quarter - Setting Up For A Bounce?

Wed, 04 Nov 2009 12:56:07 GMT

Wanted to highlight some comments on STEC Inc (NASDAQ:STEC) following results (stock was down 30% in after hours trading): - Needham says they remain positive about enterprise SSD opportunity in 2010, but recognize that the EMC inventory overhang clouds the story temporarily. Despite this dynamic, they are comfortable with at least $2 in earnings power for 2010, leaving the stock compelling following the overreaction to 3Q/4Q earnings.[More...]

Commercial real estate facing worse days

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 15:01:00 GMT

Nov. 8--From his 30th-floor Center City office, William J. Hirschfeld has an in-your-face reminder that all is not well in commercial real estate.
His view is of One Liberty Place, the 61-story premier office address that, to the casual observer, is a glistening marvel.
That means finding a tenant for the 54th floor, a spectacular space that, despite pulse-quickening views, Hirschfeld, as One Liberty's leasing manager, has had no luck filling since Cigna moved out three years ago.
