This report is long overdue, but I will post it anyway since all of my past year's picks and results have been made public>...

Thought they avoided subprime, turns out high-end was subprime too

Wells will learn the hard way, just like all the rich people of this country are learning now, that rich people aren't shielded from making stupid housing decisions. In fact, they are MORE liable to make an error in value, AND it's more costly. Congrats to Wells for largely avoiding subprime mess of 2007 and 2008. But it looks like you should have sold your company when it could have been sold for very high prices back when Wall St thought of you prudent for avoiding the subprime. Now high-end RE is coming down like an anvil on the wanna-bees, and this will directly affect your primar...

Chasing Value: Ross Stores Discounting More Than Fashion

Filed under: Management, Wal-Mart (WMT), Sears Holdings (SHLD), Wells Fargo (WFC), Chasing Value, Stocks to Buy, AOL (AOL) If I was making my 2010 picks list today, I might have found a spot for Ross Stores (ROST), the holding company for Ross Dress for Less. Analysts have a hold or market perform rating on the stock, but that is meaningless to me. What does have meaning is 20% sales growth in a dismal year, contributing to a PEG ratio of .75 and an under market P/E of 12.66 (averaging trailing and future figures).
These are very good numbers, however, in reviewing some of the data points wit...

Filed under: General Electric (GE), Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A), Getting started, Goldman Sachs Group (GS), Wells Fargo (WFC), Chasing Value, S and P 500, Stocks to Buy, Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNI) If there ever was a stock that was hiding in plain sight, it is that of Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) which is capitalized at a tad over $150 billion and run by "my pal Warren" and his pal Charlie. That's Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger, perhaps the most successful investors in five generations.
Berkshire Hathaway, a textile mill, was Buffett's first turn-around play. He was successful and sta...

Filed under: Competitive strategy, Ford Motor (F), Market matters, FedEx Corp (FDX), United Parcel'B' (UPS), Options, Wells Fargo (WFC), Chasing Value, Stocks to Buy, E*TRADE (ETFC), EZCORP (EZPW) Fourteen stocks have been reviewed so far with eight of them potential contenders for 2010. These include some picks from 2009, some old dependables and a few more on the speculative side.
During the year I have written on occasion about selling put options (naked puts) because the premiums offered were very generous and from my perspective assumed market collapse. This was reflected in my July post...

Market looks like it needs to correct a bit technically. Banking, in my opinion is one of the weaker sectors. mark-to-market needs to be done with and FASB needs to go back to honest accounting standards. toxic assets need to be removed from the balance sheets of the banks, over leveraging needs to be minimized, and securitization needs to be put on hold. I'll be shorting WFC when the market corrects soon. As always, you cannot fight the market trend. Terence Chow on seekingalpha.com has written a very nice piece on why the financial sector is in terrible shape. this article...
