But just view that retreat as an investment opportunity, if you can tolerate the risk.</p>
<p>Underscoring -- WIN's shares are not for the squeamish. If you can tolerate the volatility and you're patient, though, you're likely to be rewarded with WIN.</p><p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/04/06/time-to-consider-windstream/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Is Now a Good Time to Consider Windstream?</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/04/06/time-to-consider-windstream/">Is Now a Good Time to Consider Windstream?</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Wed, 06 Apr 2011 12:00:00 EST.

<p>Appliance manufacturer extraordinaire Whirlpool's stock over-corrected last summer, formed a bear-hug, bottomed at/near $69.50, then recovered to about $90 during the winter -- before recently sliding back to $84.

Even so, I still like WHR here. But hold on to your hat if you own the shares -- the bumpiness could continue in 2011. </p>
<p>And if you haven't already, consider taking some provides off the table with WHR, if you're in at/near $34.50.</p><p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/04/05/the-bumpy-ride-continues-with-whirlpool/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>The Bumpy Ride Continues with Whirlpool</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/04/05/the-bumpy-ride-continues-with-whirlpool/">The Bumpy Ride Continues with Whirlpool</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Tue, 05 Apr 2011 17:30:00 EST.

I still like the business model at this juncture.</p>
<p>Founded by Alexander Hamilton, the Bank of New York, a premier bank and wealth manager, has a stock that's likely to reward patient investors. The bank's 2011 revenue should rise 10% to 15%, then about 8% to 10% in 2012, on higher fees and improving margins. Asset management fees in its equities and fixed income business should record solid increases, on price gains in those markets and due to increased client deposits. New business wins add to the positive mix.</p><p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/04/05/bank-of-new-york-undervalued/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Is the Bank of New York Undervalued?</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/04/05/bank-of-new-york-undervalued/">Is the Bank of New York Undervalued?</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Tue, 05 Apr 2011 12:00:00 EST.

<p>
Further, given the better than 50% gain, if you bought Canadian Natural Resources when first discussed here at the split-adjusted price of $31.80 on May 24, 2010, now may be a good time to consider taking some profits off the table with CNQ.<p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/04/05/canadian-natural-resources-oil-sands-sector-winner/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Canadian Natural Resources: Oil Sands Sector Winner</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/04/05/canadian-natural-resources-oil-sands-sector-winner/">Canadian Natural Resources: Oil Sands Sector Winner</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Tue, 05 Apr 2011 09:30:00 EST.

<br />
Moreover, the reasons for the bullish view here are obvious enough. Demonstrated business model General Mills boasts solid brands (Cheerios, Wheaties, Lucky Charms, Total, and Chex), good cash flow, economies of scale, and room for international expansion. Add productivity gains, demonstrated marketing skill, and a solid, split-adjust $1.12 annual dividend and GIS is one play that's hard to pass up. <br />
<br />
Further, look for GIS's 2011 revenue to increase 3-4%, followed by a 1-3% rise in 2012, bolstered by the U.S.'s 'frugal consumer trend.' In the states, with budgets pinched, eating out is 'out,' and eating in is 'in,' which is good news for General Mills.<p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/04/04/general-mills-breakfast-at-home-play/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>General Mills: Breakfast-at-Home Play</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/04/04/general-mills-breakfast-at-home-play/">General Mills: Breakfast-at-Home Play</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Mon, 04 Apr 2011 16:00:00 EST.

<br />
The editor of <a href="http://web.streetauthority.com/ma-sample.asp?TC=MA0722">Street Authority Market Advisor</a> explains, "The company has several promising gold mines under development that could soon produce over 80,000 ounces annually.<br />
<br />
"Believe it or not, there are only two mines on the planet that yield palladium first and foremost -- it's a by-product everywhere else.

But the view from here argues that it won't keep UPS down, and I obviously still like the business model at this stage.</p>
<p>UPS's 2011 revenue should increase 8% to 10%, after a nice 9% rise in 2010. The company is benefiting from increased demand stemming from the U.S. and global economic recoveries and better quarters are ahead. Look for increased pricing power, in some delivery segments and higher volumes.</p><p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/04/04/ups-well-positioned-for-growth/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>UPS Is Well-Positioned for Growth</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/04/04/ups-well-positioned-for-growth/">UPS Is Well-Positioned for Growth</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Mon, 04 Apr 2011 12:30:00 EST.

This is how things have shaped up through the first quarter for my 2011 stock picks. (For a look at my original picks, see here: <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/01/05/chasing-value-2011-stock-picks-5-of-11/">part 1,</a> <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/01/06/chasing-value-2011-stock-picks-6-7-8-9/">part 2,</a> and <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/01/10/chasing-value-2011-stock-picks-10-and-11/">part 3</a>.)<br />
<br />
Normally, if I said a business was underwater, investors would think the worst. Actually, in the summer Noble Corp (<a href="http://www.dailyfinance.com/quotes/noble-corporation-baar/ne/nys">NE</a>) was underwater -- and investors were not impressed. However, this was a great buying opportunity, and although the company is still underwater, it is also a market leader among my stock picks and the overall market -- even among oil industry players. With its fleet of 69 offshore drilling rigs, Noble stands tall.<p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/04/04/chasing-value-2011-stock-picks-q1-review-a-platform-for-succ/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Chasing Value: 2011 Stock Picks Q1 Review -- A Platform for Success</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/04/04/chasing-value-2011-stock-picks-q1-review-a-platform-for-succ/">Chasing Value: 2011 Stock Picks Q1 Review -- A Platform for Success</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Mon, 04 Apr 2011 10:00:00 EST.
