It was one of my successful <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/01/04/chasing-value-2010-final-review-winners-and-losers/">picks for 2010</a> and I made money having sold puts establishing a base price of $13.50. It closed Friday February 25 at $15.89.</p>
<p>I might not have chosen to post about this except for news that Ken Griffin's hedge fund Citadel Investment Group plans to <a href="http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-02-24/citadel-selling-up-to-27-5m-e-trade-shares.html">sell much of its stake in E*Trade Financial</a>. The largest shareholder selling out is news. Citadel will still hold valuable warrants, giving it the option of taking a very large position again, but for now there seems to be a change of heart for them as well.</p><p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/02/27/chasing-value-time-to-sell-e-trade/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Chasing Value: Time to Sell E*Trade?</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2011/02/27/chasing-value-time-to-sell-e-trade/">Chasing Value: Time to Sell E*Trade?</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Sun, 27 Feb 2011 13:40:00 EST.

<p>McGraw-Hill's education segment will face an increasing sluggish textbook market, as public school systems -- particularly those in poorer U.S. school districts, K-12 -- continue to belt-tighten in every way possible, due to state and local budget cutbacks.

Crude oil prices are up 16% in six weeks. Dividend investors continue to seek out low-risk, high-yield <a class="inlinked" href="http://www.dailyfinance.com/category/stock-picks/">stock picks</a>. So you would think that the major crude oil and energy stocks are good buys right?</p>
<p>Wrong. The fact of the matter is that as we enter another <a class="inlinked" href="http://www.dailyfinance.com/category/earnings/">earnings</a> season, the numbers just aren't there for many crude oil blue chips. Even with oil prices improving right now, the ship has sailed on Q3 and those profits are all over but the counting. And as many investors will see soon, those profits may not be as healthy as many crude oil stocks would like.</p><p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/10/08/three-crude-oil-blue-chips-to-sell/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Three Crude Oil Blue Chips to Sell</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/10/08/three-crude-oil-blue-chips-to-sell/">Three Crude Oil Blue Chips to Sell</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Fri, 08 Oct 2010 10:00:00 EST.

But the In-N-Out philosophy has also resulted in unmatched popularity that has current locations swamped. The only thing to do is open more stores -- including a rumored expansion into Dallas, Texas, in what would be a huge reach east for the chain.<br />
<br />
The move should have Burger King Holdings (<a href="http://www.dailyfinance.com/quotes/burger-king-holdings-inc/bkc/nys">BKC</a>) very worried - and not just because there will be another competing fast-food joint in town. The fact is that In-N-Out is seeing booming growth due to its business model and corporate philosophy at a time BK is losing momentum day by day.<p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/05/26/what-burger-king-can-learn-from-in-n-out-burger/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>What Burger King Can Learn from In-N-Out Burger</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/05/26/what-burger-king-can-learn-from-in-n-out-burger/">What Burger King Can Learn from In-N-Out Burger</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Wed, 26 May 2010 15:30:00 EST.

China's first-quarter GDP grew at an 11.9% annual pace despite three significant increases to reserve requirements that were designed to cool lending and growth. That's why in much of 2009 and early 2010 I was bullish on China and overweighted my global portfolios in favor of this country.</p>
<p>But all good things must come to an end and right now it's time to get selective about which China stocks you buy. That's why I recommend investors cut back their China holdings and look for new opportunities in emerging markets.</p><p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/05/06/sell-china-buy-igld-abv/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>It's Time to Sell China -- and Buy These Emerging Markets</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/05/06/sell-china-buy-igld-abv/">It's Time to Sell China -- and Buy These Emerging Markets</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Thu, 06 May 2010 13:15:00 EST.

That uncertainty is causing many investors to rethink the oil stocks in their portfolio.<br />
<br />
And when it comes to oil stocks, there's no bigger player than Exxon Mobil (<a class="inlinked" href="http://www.dailyfinance.com/quotes/exxon-mobil-corporation/xom/nys">XOM</a>).

<p>I'm very thankful that this most recent oil rig accident happened late on a Friday. I certainly believe that if this accident had happened a few hours earlier in the day, I probably wouldn't have liked to witness the way the markets reacted. Now, we have two days to absorb the news of what has happened before full-scale trading resumes.

In fact, for most of this century GE stock shares were dead money. After General Electric peaked at around $60 a share in late 2000, the stock moved steadily downward before finding a comfortable range between $25 and $35 for the most of the decade.</p>
<p>But after the financial crisis, things got even worse. During the height of the global economic meltdown, the stock was one of the biggest dogs in the park -- with a severe flea infestation. In March 2009, GE stock hit a historic intraday low of just $5.73. With shares cruising up around $20 now, some bulls are saying General Electric is a buy because it has bottomed out and will move back up to its old $30 range. There's even speculation of takeover aspirations at General Electric, with some likely <a href="http://www.investorplace.com/experts/louis_navellier/articles/ge-takeover-targets-small-cap-stock-picks-amsc-acpw-jst-lgl.html?cp=bloggingstocks&amp;cc=synd&amp;cs=investorplace" target="_blank">GE buyout candidates among top-performing small-cap stocks in related industries</a>.</p><p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/04/30/reasons-to-sell-ge/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Five Reasons to Sell GE</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/04/30/reasons-to-sell-ge/">Five Reasons to Sell GE</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Fri, 30 Apr 2010 11:00:00 EST.

<p>Pfizer's premier product, Lipitor, comes off patent this year and will get hit by generic competition in 2011.

<p>Who needs a boat? You may want one, but you certainly don't need one. And when you find the cash (since there's no credit available) to buy one, you can get a used one; they are falling off the dry docks.</p><p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/03/20/deadbeat-stock-3-brunswick-corp-bc/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Deadbeat Stock #3: Brunswick (BC)</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/03/20/deadbeat-stock-3-brunswick-corp-bc/">Deadbeat Stock #3: Brunswick (BC)</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Sat, 20 Mar 2010 15:00:00 EST.

<p>This company is seeing sales decline, and its new best hope, the Pre, is competing against the iPhone, BlackBerry and Droid.</p>
<p>That means a company with little cash and a market cap under a  billion dollars is fighting, with an inferior and overpriced product,  against the combined strength of Apple (<a href="http://www.dailyfinance.com/quotes/apple-inc/aapl/nas">AAPL</a>),  Research In Motion (<a href="http://www.dailyfinance.com/quotes/research-in-motion-limited/rimm/nas">RIMM</a>)  and Google (<a href="http://www.dailyfinance.com/quotes/google-inc/goog/nas">GOOG</a>).
