Bullish on MTW ... Graphic_rating_buy MTW
N/A
 +90.49%
in 105 days
This Company that no one seems to be able to pronounce was highly touted for years. Most notably last year as it wound its way down to these levels, many tv commentators were recommending it. Were they trying to get out of the stock or did they realize value there? MTW historically has been a well-run Company with some diversification (the shipbuilding business with all its quirks and pitfalls was recently sold) could be positioning itself for renewed growth in the long-term.

Manitowoc Company (MTW) Graphic_rating_buy MTW

 -62.45%
in 969 days
I was looking through the list of top % gainers on the NYSE today and came across one of my favorite Wisconsin companies, Manitowoc (MTW) which closed at $59.65, up $4.18 or 7.54% on the day. I do not own any shares of Manitowoc, but I have encouraged my Stock Club to buy some shares, and have purchased some shares for my wife's IRA as well as a few shares for a couple of my kids' accounts. I also say 'favorite' because I have blogged about this stock previously. In fact, I first discussed Manitowoc on Stock Picks Bob's Advice on November 22, 2004 , when the stock was at $38.29 (actua...

From the Blogosphere

Manitowoc: Cyclical Bottom, Building a Higher Future
Historical Perspective
Manitowoc (MTW), as the dominant manufacturer of building cranes, has long been considered a cyclical company. In recent times, the company has been working to reduce the cyclicality of their business. They divested their legacy Manitowoc Marine business and greatly expanded their Manitowoc’s Foodservice business with the acquisition of Enodis. Originally they were only on the cold side of foodservice, offering ice machines, walk-in coolers, etc. With the purchase of Enodis, they have expanded to the hot side as well offering ovens, steamers, fryers, etc.

Is KHD Humboldt Wedag the Ultimate Emerging Market Value Play?
<>Until this article at Realmoney.com, I'd never heard of KHD Humboldt Wedag (KHD). KHD owns companies that operate internationally in the industrial plant engineering and equipment supply industry, and specializes in the cement processing industries. They have a negative enterprise value meaning that cash in the bank outnumbers the market cap. This is a pretty rare situation especially considering they are basically a emerging markets play with 95% of their backlog in Russia, Eastern Europe, Asia (mainly India), and the Middle East.

Back to why this stock made my radar. They fall into the sam...

DryShips (DRYS) Gets Going Concern Note from Auditors; Manitowec (MTW) - Eww
Tradermark
34%
This is an ironic story because in the comments section last week, reader Keith P asked why I trade in Excel Maritime (EXM) rather than everyone's favorite dry bulk shipper - DryShips (DRYS). Today's news which has been a long time coming explains why. [Oct 31, 2008: Credit Tsunami Swamps Trade] [Nov 3, 2008: UK Telegraph - Investors Shun Greek Debt as Shipping Crisis Deepens] While DryShips is the daytraders / speculators favorite stock it is not for me, or my timeframe - not with the potential to wake up any morning and seeing banks pulling the plug. Back in January we posted how <>DryS...

Catepillar (CAT) looks like a cheap stock but...
Warren_buffett
18%
At $30, Catepillar is an accidently high yielder (5% dividend) but this segment is declining like crazy. 20,000 job cuts at CAT with $21 billion in debt (it's market cap is only $18 billion!), I would stay away but historically the company has always been run with high debt. -Financials. Reading Manitowoc's(MTW) earning report, they are cutting 22% jobs and the CEO warns he does not see the recovery of crane market for at least two years! -Stock Article Link
