First Industrial: Contrarian Long Idea Ready to Join the Rally

The market’s meteoric rise off the March lows has made life for the value investor increasingly more difficult as we are faced with unpersuasive valuations coupled with a very uncertain economic environment. Gone are the days of picking up quality businesses trading at 20% free cash flow yields.

However for those willing to take a contrarian stance and do the work, opportunities still abound in the market. One such opportunity that I am particularly excited about is First Industrial (FR).

Abstract
<>There is much speculation and anecdotal information regarding the rally that began March 6 2009, which have suggested the gains are the result of massive manipulation on the part of the Federal Reserve (FR) and the large institutions that dominate Treasury securities dealing, program trading and the derivatives markets. Traders have reported that traditional indicators and metrics used for market analysis stopped working for periods of time or altogether, and that correlations among markets have been erratic and quick to change.

First Industrial Realty (FR)
I picked up a small starter position today in First Industrial Realty (ticker: FR) and plan to accumulate more on further price dips. First Industrial develops and operates warehouses and light industrial buildings in the top industrial markets in the US and select industrial real estate markets in Canada, Belgium and the Netherlands. FR trades below its net asset value per share and yields a whopping 10.4% with more than enough cash flow to maintain the dividend.

FR has an interesting connection with Warren Buffett. On December 3, 1999, Buffett auctioned off his 20 year old wallet with a se...

Five Struggling Dividend Stocks I'm Still Bullish On Graphic_rating_buy FR
-80.50%
in 446 days
<>Earlier this week we looked at my top 5 high fliers for 2008. Unfortunately, for every up, there is a down and that is certainly true for my portfolio. As before, we will look at results through July 31, 2008. Here they are my cellar dwellers with comments:

#5 - General Electric (GE) -19.3% Total 2008 Return
Of my cellar dwellers, GE is the one I am most bullish on. I liked it at $38 when I bought my first tranche in July/2007, and liked it even more at $29 when I bought my last tranche this month.

This was my first ever dividend ...
