Western Digital has the drive for success Graphic_rating_buy WDC
-64.91%
in 228 days

Filed under: Stocks to Buy

The choppy/consolidating (or perhaps worse) market conditions sometimes give the impression that growth plays do not exist, but that is not the case, and one growth company worth reviewing is Western Digital Corp.

Western Digital Corp. (NYSE: WDC) is one of largest, independent hard drive manufacturers in the world.

In general, analysts see 35%-45% revenue growth in FY 2008, reflecting the Komag acquisition, and solid PC hard drive and DVD hard drive demand.

Top Selling Hard Drive Makers on Amazon Graphic_rating_buy WDC

I really like western digital because they have decent hard drives at really cheap prices. Everytime I look on amazon they have the most products on their top seller list. They also have consistently beaten the competition in price, which is very important, because people will always buy PC components and get the most value they can. At only 9.8 P/E, it is still a gem. Its competition, Seagate is laying off workers, probably just to catch up, Its safe to go with WDC this holiday season.

Strong Bounce On Little News Graphic_rating_buy WDC
-57.14%
in 437 days
The market is getting a nice bounce in early trading, although you know by now that I am often skeptical of strong market opens. I prefer to see a market that opens flattish and rallies into the close.

Wireless equipment maker Ericsson (ERIC) issued a strong forecast, and disk drive maker WDC also raised its guidance. So those are some positive developments that are helping the tech sector at the margin.

WDC is undervalued with a p/e of less than 10 while it's net income continues to increase. This will all make WDC continue to grow over the next few months. It has also recently bought KOMG which will increase it's profits.

One of the few major players left in the hard disk market. Well recognized brand name, an innovator, good market penetration. Stock price is low, P/E only 9, I don't see any reason why it shouldn't be 31 like seagate. This is a long term pick.

"Looking Back One Year" A review of stock picks from the week of December 19, 2005 Graphic_rating_buy WDC

in 558 days

As part of my blogging, I have been trying on most weekends to spend some time examining past stock selections to see how they turned out. This evaluation depends on an assumed "by and hold" strategy which assumes simply purchasing equal dollar amounts of each stock picked and then holding it indefinitely. However, in practice, I recommend and utilize a disciplined portfolio management system that would of course affect the performance not necessarily in a negative fashion. This system requires me to sell my losing stocks quickly and completely and sell my appreciating stocks partially
