WFC: Bull or Bear?

Chasing Value: Ross Stores Discounting More Than Fashion WFC

56%

-6.28% in 13 days 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... Continue reading »

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... Continue reading »

Cramer on BloggingStocks: Hold Citi for a Double WFC

-2.97% in 50 days Filed under: Market matters, Citigroup Inc. (C), Wells Fargo (WFC), Stocks to Buy, Cramer on BloggingStocks From TheStreet.com Network Goldman, Catholic Nuns Discuss Compensation Bulls Full of Holiday Cheer TheStreet.com's Jim Cramer says the dilution here was expected, and this one is marching higher. What do you with Citigroup (C) (Cramer's Take) if you bought it on the deal now that you are up so huge? I'd keep it. Remember, there were two variables to this deal -- how much raising the TARP return money would hurt the stock and how much the government's sale would hurt the ... Continue reading »

Cramer on BloggingStocks: Buy Citi on the deal WFC

(C), Wells Fargo (WFC), Stocks to Buy, Cramer on BloggingStocks From TheStreet.com Network Should Citigroup Rush to Repay TARP? Citigroup Reportedly Prepping Equity Raise TheStreet.com's Jim Cramer says this one'll make you a bundle by 2012. Buy Citigroup (C) (Cramer's Take). No, not in the open market, but on the deal or deals, depending upon how heavy-handed the government's going to be. I initially recommended this stock in the low $3s and saw it go to $5, where I begged the government nightly on my show to sell its 7 billio... Continue reading »

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... Continue reading »

WFC short WFC

48%

-3.28% in 64 days (closed on 11/12/09) 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... Continue reading »

Chasing Value: Wells Fargo - squeezing out the shorts! WFC

-4.82% in 59 days (closed on 07/02/09) Filed under: Major movement, Good news, Rants and raves, Market matters, Wells Fargo (WFC), Chasing Value, Headline news, Stocks to Buy I have written many times in the past year about Wells Fargo (NYSE: WFC) and since it is up another 23.66% today, I'd like to come back to it. As an investor I have done more than just blab (or blog) about it. I have been loading up on the stock, acquiring shares at $12.00 when the bears were ruling the market only a short time ago -- a very short time ago! In the last month, Wells is up an amazing 48.41%, and that for the safest bank in the United States. Th... Continue reading »

The year has started off with a lot of continued turbulence. We have a new president, Barack Obama, who will boldly lead us where no man has gone before -- two trillion further in debt, most likely. <>Not that this is his doing, but it is his chosen calling, and right now he is ca...
