• Transocean's Gap Covering Is a Bullish Signal

  Monday, July 30, 2007 9:02 AM

  Transocean (RIG) spiked 5% at the news of its potential merger with GlobalSantaFe (GSF) last week, but 4 days after the news, the stock is now back at pre-news levels. This is surprising considering that all the big oil companies shared one consistent theme wen they reported earnings last week - that production was lower Read More Posted by Faisal Laljee 0 Comments Go to top

  Wednesday, July 18, 2007 4:30 PM

  Turkcell (TKC) is a Turkish wireless and telecommunications provider - the only Turkish ADR to trade on the NYSE. Turkey is a key emerging market, that is not talked about enough (which is a good thing actually). With a business friendly environment and financial markets that are being moulded for EU membership, Turkey is a great place to put money and one of the few ways to do it here in the US is by investing in Turkcell Read More Posted by Faisal Laljee 0 Comments Go to top

  Tuesday, July 17, 2007 10:11 AM

• Do Not Let Controversy Cloud Judgement Over Whole Foods

  Tuesday, July 17, 2007 10:00 AM

  Whole Foods (WFMI) is a organic grocer that people love to frequent. But this once darling of wall street is a fallen angel, with the stock plummetting from $80 back in December of 2005 to a recent $40. In fact, the stock is at the same level as it last was back in August of 2004 Read More Posted by Faisal Laljee 0 Comments Go to top

• Housing Still in a Rut Bt Homebuilders Near a Bottom

  Tuesday, July 17, 2007 9:55 AM

  Recent stock price performance of homebuilders and those that are affected by the housing slow-down that began in late 2005 echoes the sentiment shared by many of its pundits, including top executives of many homebuilders. At a recent Real Estate Summit in New York, Larry Sorsby, executive vice president and chief financial officer of Hovnanian Enterprises (HOV) said, "08 is probably not going to be a year of strong recovery Read More Posted by Faisal Laljee 0 Comments Go to top

• No Time to Be Short Anything

  Friday, July 13, 2007 9:11 AM

  With the 4-year record 1 day gain by DJIA on Thursday, a lot of investors were caught off guard napping at the beach. I think more money will be put to work and this rally should gain fuel. If you have taken on any short positions based on my recommendation, I recommend closing them out Read More Posted by Faisal Laljee 0 Comments Go to top

  I have been recommending Amylin (AMLN) for a long time now .

  With the retail sector in fine shape, I want to re-emphasize my bullish position on DSW. The stock has filled its gap between $33 and $38 and has found support around the $35 level.

• Time to Take Profits on Oil Refiners

  Friday, July 13, 2007 7:23 AM

  Back in March, I wrote a bullish two-liner on Western Refining (WNR). At the time, the stock was trading at under $40. Since then, the stock has shot up to over $60 and readers who bought around the time of my writing are sitting on over 50% gains. While I am bullish on oil, gasoline inventories have been rising as of the most recent report, there have been no major hurricanes yet and prices at the pump have been declining for over a month Read More Posted by Faisal Laljee 0 Comments Go to top

• Eastman Kodak is Well on It's Way to Recovery

  Friday, July 06, 2007 8:04 AM

  Eastman Kodak (EK) is a great brand. It is to pictures what Xerox is to copying. A few years back, the company seemed to have lost its way with its lack of investment in digital cameras and heavier focus on disposable cameras and film. Since then the company has shifted its strategy towards digital photo products and commercial printing Read More Posted by Faisal Laljee 0 Comments Go to top

• It's Checkout Time at the Hilton

  Thursday, July 05, 2007 4:05 PM

  I first recommended Hilton (HLT) back on Dec 4th , when the stock was at $33.20. If you followed my pick, you are up a sweet 37% in 7 months. I believe its time to move on as I don't anticipate any counter bids on this chain. I had also mentioned Wyndham (WYN) as a good alternative in the same post , and investors in WYN since then are up 24% including today's 3 Read More Posted by Faisal Laljee 0 Comments Go to top
