- A Financial Analysis of Barrick Gold Corp
The basic material industry encompasses a lot of what long term investors are looking for. With low multiples and high returns on equity, there is a lot of optimism by committing capital to industries such as oil, gold, or silver. More particularly, the gold industry has a lot to offer during this period when commodity prices are suspect to severe fluctuations. With market leading companies such as Lihir Gold, Newmont Mining, and Compania de Minas Buenaventura SA, there are a lot of options where to go when looking for the cheapest equity. One stock in this industry that I find really interesting is Barrick Gold (ABX). With a strong strategic business plan, competitive fundamentals, and good technical support, this company has a lot to offer for investors. - A Financial Analysis of American States Water Co
The utility sector is a typically unheard one. With only one company, Aqua America Inc, over one billion in terms of market capitalization, there may be some risk involved in purchasing some of these short-cap equities. Nevertheless, along with the likes of California Water Service Group and SJW Corp, one company, American States Water Co (AWR), has the solid fundamental base and business strategy to produce capital gains for your portfolio. - A Financial Analysis of Eaton Corp.
The industrial electric equipment industry is one without a lot of recognition. While there are a few large capitalization companies such as Rockwell Automation, ABB, and Nidec, only Eaton Corporation (ETN) seems to receive any type of coverage from news outlets. Nevertheless, I believe a lot of such coverage is warranted, as this company has the proper fundamental and strategic business plans to excel and contribute to capital gains for your portfolio. - A Financial Analysis of Andersons Inc
The consumer good sector, when compared to more attractive regions such as technology or healthcare, has not received too much attention in the news as of late. However, the lack of consideration by the major news outlets does not necessarily mean that this sector, and more specifically, the farm product industry of this sector, is not an attractive buy. With market cap leaders such as Bunge (BG), Delta and Pine Land (DLP), and Fresh Del Monte Produce (FDP) performing fairly well over the past year, there may be some further optimism for this industry. One company in particular, Andersons Inc. (ANDE), I feel will continue to do extraordinary well over this next year. - A Financial Analysis of America Movil S.A.B. de C.V. Nll, TMG, RICC
As I believe there is money to be found in all sectors, regardless of the events taking place in the economy, I focus today's article on the technology sector, closing in on the wireless communications industry. With technology expected to perform quite nicely in 2007, despite the recent correction of worldwide stocks, I see companies, especially those that have interests abroad, to contain the necessary potential to help out investors. As the wireless industry is loaded with large capitalization stocks such as Vodafone and China Mobil Limited, I have actually researched and found an excellent large-cap stock of 78 billion dollars in America Movil S.A.B de C.V (AMX) to contain both the fundamental and technical qualities of becoming an excellent asset for your portfolio. - A Financial Analysis of Donaldson Company Inc.
When thinking of industries to invest your capital in, the Pollution & Treatment Control region, while not heavily commercialized, may able to increase your profits exponentially. Regarding the companies which fit into this industry, the larger capitalization businesses such as ESCO Technologies and CECO Environmental may stand out in terms of low price to earning multiples and solid ROEs. Nevertheless, one other name, Donaldson Company (DCI) really stands out with its superior fundamentals relative to, not only its industry rivals, but major producer competitors such as MFRI and Pall. - A Financial Analysis of Wyeth
When thinking of major drug manufacturers, the company Pfizer tends to control both the conversation and thought. With a strong reputation, Dow recognition, and a market capitalization near 130 billion dollars, the excitement over this company is understandable. Nevertheless, while Pfizer may be a more recognized house-hold name, another drug manufacturer, Wyeth (WYE), may actually support better fundamentals and potential when compared to this industry giant. Thus, as there are always capital gains to be earned from all industries, I believe, after examining this major specific industry, Wyeth holds tremendous potential for increased shareholder optimism. - A Financial Analysis of Cenveo Incorporated
In every industry I believe there are a few select stocks, regardless of the economic condition in the nation, which reserve the right to be highly noted as buy recommendations. When looking at the profound but interesting industry of paper products, while there are some excellent choices in the large capitalization range such as with International Paper and Kimberly-Clark, I have found another, more subtle middle capitalization company which contains the fundamentals for potential success. Thus, through not only the fundamentals, but through the charts and economic relevance to profile, I believe Cenveo Incorporated (CVO) provides optimistic sentiments for all investors. - A Financial Analysis of Pantry Incorporated
I truly believe that there are gems found in every sector and industry, regardless of the economic situation. Relative to the grocery store industry, while giants such as Safeway and Kroger hold a large market share in terms of capitalization over the industry, I have found a smaller, middle capitalization stock which has support to be understood as undervalued. This company, Pantry Incorporated (PTRY), after examining its fundamentals and technical features, regardless of recent news, has the capacity, as it has illustrated over the past few years, to continue its momentum and allow investors to claim strong capital gains. - A Financial Analysis of Western Digital Corporation
Moving into the year 2007, many Americans soon realized the impact and new importance videos have become on the Internet. With the craze surrounding WebPages such as youtube, where new videos and ideas can be diffused throughout the Internet, it is apparent that video technology is going to become even more important in 2007. While such may be exemplified as a rudimentary analysis, because of such advancement in entertainment, there will be tremendous need for more storage for desktops, laptops, and even more mobile devices such as MP3 players who incorporate video technology. As a result, there will be remarkable opportunities for data storage devices such as produced by Western Digital Corporation (WDC) which will ultimately benefit its shareholders. - A Financial Analysis of Cowen Group Incorporated
As far as IPOs go, any financial analyst will tell you, as an investor, that investment banks, or other financial companies will be your best bet for higher capital gains. When examining the services that investment bank, Cowen Group Incorporated (COWN) can provide as a newly publicly traded company, the evidence presented prima facie seems to acquiesce with the prevailing sentiment. After looking at the fundamental and technical analysis of this company coupled with the ideology of investing with newly established financial corporations, as an investor, you will come to understand the multitude of benefits associated with purchasing shares early in such an industry. - A Financial Analysis of WESCO International Incorporated
After a tremendous rally in terms of share price over the past few years and a recent initiation to outperform the market from Wachovia, WESCO International (WCC) has sparked many investors’ interests in the form of potential capital gains. While the stock price, after such a rally, may seem high and overbought to many investors, after examining both the charts and fundamentals of WESCO, I believe there is still much optimism to be regarded upon when balancing your options of buying or not. - A Financial Analysis of Global Payments Incorporated
As the great Warren Buffet alluded to when asked how he became such an enormously successful trader, he acknowledged using simple means to choose certain corporations based on characteristics he was familiar with. While it is fair to say many traders contain the necessary skills required to do analysis of companies they are knowledgeable of, such a process may either involve a too rudimentary process to seem explosive on the upside or may contain profound virtues such as patience, which, unfortunately, not many traders can be attributive of. Nevertheless, after compiling some careful research, I have found a company, Global Payments Incorporated (GPN), which encompasses the ideals presented by Mr. Buffet in terms of providing a simple, but rewarding, procedure to accrue a copious amount of new capital. - A Financial Analysis of Neogen Corporation
As the unfortunate news surrounding the recent disease outbreaks related to foods originating from unclear but disregarded care of products, such pessimism regarding the issue can be reversed when understanding the positive fundamentals involved. When such a situation occurs, there is always going to be more money spent on products and services to help avoid more disasters of the sort then originally has be consumed. Such can be labeled as an ideal foundation for a company involved in testing for abnormal and potentially dangerous areas of consumer food products. The company I have selected, Neogen (NEOG), not only can be supported as a strong buy because of the relative outbreak, but creates even more optimism with the use of fundamental and technical analysis. - A Financial Analysis of AngioDynamics Inc
In the foreseeable future, the inevitable "baby boom" generation will retire and require a copious amount of medical treatment. While such deduction is fairly well-known, I believe a lot of what has been said has underestimated the severity of the repercussions new and old diseases will bring to these potentially unfortunate individuals. While such a claim may seem ominous, healthcare companies are constantly working to provide new treatment to abate much of this danger. As a consequence, there is, I believe, a tremendous opportunity to invest in some of these healthcare providers such as AngioDynamics (ANGO), to not only understand the products they are making to help individuals, but to help increase your capital gains. - Kennametal be such a great Buy?
From many of my previous articles I have focused more on companies I would consider buys in the short run. However, after some research, I have discovered Kennametal (KMT) to be a wonderful consideration for investors looking for long term commitments. Through its excellent fundamentals and strong technical support, Kennametal, relative to its peers, encourages the notion of being labeled as a strong buy. - A Star with Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide
As the holiday season approaches more and more individuals are going to be inclined to sleeping in hotels due to the abundance of travel. In reference to such action, a claim can be made that a stock like Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide (HOT) would be a terrific equity to look upon given the festive situation. In all fairness, such argument made not only has strong economic validity but stimulates the notion of stock, in addition to fundamental and technical analysis, which contains the proper resources to become a very rewarding purchase. - The Joy of Joy Global, Inc.
Joy to the world, Joy Global has come. As the title indicates, there is a lot to be optimistic about when regarding Joy Global (JOYG) as your next potential investment. With the worldwide advantage, strong fundamental and technical standings relative to weaker sentiment regarding competitors, I believe purchasing a few shares as your gift for your holidays will make you and potentially your loved ones all the more joyous. - Should You Step into Foot Locker?
With the NBA and other sport seasons flaring up this autumn, you may be wondering if now is the perfect opportunity to purchase shares of Foot Locker (FL), especially since they will be releasing earnings shortly (November 19, 2006). While such may be said as a good deduction, there are other, more profound reasons and answers to this question which, may, unfortunately, delay or even abort your decision to carry on your purchasing intentions. While all the economic and fundamental analysis may signal a strong run for this company, the technical analysis side of these indicators weighs much more heavily in a stock like Foot Locker. - Barnes and Noble: A Buy or Sell?
As Amazon recently reported its quarterly results, which, not only did I predict right on, but surprised many other experts and analysts awaiting a more negative outcome, one of its competitors, Barnes and Noble (BKS), which typically utilizes similar methods in achieving its respective businesses will be reporting earnings shortly as well. With such similar trends and data, you, as a shareholder of this stock should expect to gain similar capital after this recognized bookstore reports its earnings in about two weeks. While the parallelism is perceived as obvious, the truth may actually be a bit surprising. - Is It A Buy Inside J C Penney?
Until this morning (November 3, 2006) I believed that much of the retail industry was overbought, and that any capital gains accumulated during the industry’s incredible run should be taken off the market into other areas. However, after seeing that the unemployment level of 4.4% is the lowest amount in over five years, I foresee a tremendous opportunity for a department retailer such as J C Penney (JCP) to go even higher in terms of share price, even as it has recently reached record highs. - Electronic Arts: Buy or Sell
As the new generation of video games will finally take over this November with the release of Nintendo’s Wii and Sony’s PS3, should you, as an investor, be interested in purchasing shares of affected companies such as Electronic Arts (ERTS)? An answer to this question may unfortunately surprise you. - Is it Viable to Buy Shares of Viacom?
With earnings results just a little more than a week away, many traders are anxiously awaiting how the television giant, Viacom (VIA), will perform. Recently put into the publicly exchanged market, Viacom has not done that well relative to many of its competitors, year to date. However, if there is any indication of how powerful earnings are this recent quarter, there may be a surprise for fellow Viacom owners awaiting a strong result to boost shares of this company to a more respectable level. - Can you buy Shares of Verizon Now?
Approximately one week away from Verizon's (VZ) third quarter results, many investors are speculating whether to purchase shares of this lucrative telecommunications giant. In search for answers by examining earnings from other powerful monsters, there is a mix bag in terms of what to expect for both Verizon and the telecommunication industry in general. However, just specifically in the case of Verizon, I believe the real question should not be placed into whether Verizon accumulates high margins when two years are compared with one another or if this company beats its EPS estimate by a few cents, but how will Verizon perform in the next few years. - Chevron: Will the Drop in the Price of Oil Hurt Earnings?
As Chevron (CVX) will report earnings this week, you may be wondering if it will be beneficial to purchase shares of this company in attempt of earning higher capital gains. You may also be wondering why I am endorsing the purchase of this equity at a time when oil prices are at its lowest point for this year. While such is a valid claim, there is a more profound reason to the success that Chevron will post this week which will surprise many investors throughout Wall Street. - Buy Shares from Amazon NOW!
This past week eBay recently released its third quarter results which came up to be pretty favorable to investors as the stock managed to climb pretty significantly the next day. This week, Amazon (AMZN), a similar cousin to the online auction giant will be reporting its own earnings in attempt to edge back to the glory days of nearly five years ago. However, with the recent fall of Amazon shares over those past five years, as an investor, you may be hesitant to pursue such an action into acquiring more or any, for that manner, shares at all. While such sentiment is understandable, you will be missing out on a great chance to earn quite a bit of capital gains if you do not follow such reasoning. - Is Disney a Magical Purchase?
With the NHL, NFL, and NBA seasons ready for a new year, the large conglomeration of Disney (DIS) looks to boost guidance for its many enterprises during the fall to winter seasons. As a Dow component, Disney has helped propel the recent rally by recently reaching a 52 week high in aims of a very favorable market according to recent trends. However, with a recession looming should you be involved in such a company who basis a lot of its products on consumer expenditures? - Caterpillar: A Buy or Sell?
With the primary purpose of selling products dedicated to mining or digging, Caterpillar (CAT) might not be too favorable to investors with the decrease in price of commodities. However, such a situation may not be that unfavorable to this company. - Alcoa: A Buy or Sell?
With the big aluminum giant ready to report earnings on the 10th of October, Alcoa (AA) hopes to bring favorable numbers to a company that should indicate how the Dow Jones should be behaving and whether the recent rally is true or not. The problem concerning Alcoa however is how the futures market has been reacting over the previous month or so. Possibly, the commodity of aluminum is not affected as other future trading products such as oil or natural gas, but nonetheless aluminum over the past six months has been falling relative to its high prices a few months ago. - Tim Hortons: A new rival for Starbucks?
Emerging as Canada’s top coffee house from the famous Toronto Maple Leaf superstar, Tim Hortons (THI) has slowly emerged to become a top competitor among not only coffee stops, but restaurants as well. Serving items ranging from top soups to salads to sandwiches among the common accessories of pastries, desserts, and of course coffee, Tim Hortons looks to gain some market share of such a booming industry. - Sony: Will PS3 Save this Company?
With the recent announcement that Sony (SNE) will delay its PS3 launch in Europe, a similar reaction should be based in your mind of whether to buy or sell your shares of this company. With such a shaky corporation in terms of announcing favorable information, the confidence in buying shares of Sony has dropped as shown by its stock the past few months. With the added problems of having the major laptop producers having to recall the specific Sony brand batteries, such a situation does not pose well for this corporation and its shareholders. - Apple: Is it Really a Better Stock to Buy than Microsoft?
Is Apple really going to do better than Microsoft? The answer may surprise you. - Nike: A Buy or Sell?
Recently reporting their quarterly earnings, many investors look for a fair sized rally for this shoe making king. However, with the upcoming recession and implications that it might have on Nike (NKE) shares, I would be hesitant to purchase any more shares at such a high price during such a volatile period. - McDonald’s: Buy or Sell
Supporting the popular catch praise, “We love to make you smile”, investors of McDonald’s (MCD) may have different reactions to the drop that I foresee for this equity. With added competitors such as Jack in the Box, Burger King, and a broader enemy in the new fashion of going on diets, McDonald’s slowly will be feeling the pressures which it has repressed up to now. - Coca-Cola vs. Pepsi: Which Stock is a Better Buy?

Typically during this period of the year with back to school sessions, Wal-Mart is rewarded with its school specials in terms of higher profits and revenues. While the action is short lived and only lasts a few months, the real benefit with Wal-Mart comes from the economics involved. - Google: Is it Too Late to Buy?

As crude oil prices continue to skyrocket, you may think that I am foolish to buy any transportation equity during such a time. However, while there is always going to be some interdependent correlations between the price of oil and the price of transports, there is a bigger and larger percentage of other intangibles which may have a more pressing effect upon each of these stocks. Fundamentals, emerging markets, and overall competition all have the possibility to affect the price positively or negatively. The key, however, is to find which of these equities will be affected in the most favorable manner. - Microsoft: The End of an Era?

As the economy is ending its inflation worries and moving towards issues concerning economic growth, investors need to reallocate their portfolios to adapt to such a situation. Typically during periods of slow growth, sectors such as consumer staples and healthcare are known to be quite stable and provide investors with assurance in regards to steady growth. The biotechnological company Stratagene (STGN) defines such a sentiment, but also provides other incentives, which potentially has the impact of amassing large capital gains in this type of environment. - Do Not be Bearish on Bear Stearns
