Tune in to DirectTV

"Seeking to put some of our capital back to work, today we're going to step up and purchase shares of DirecTV (NYSE: DTV)," says Bill Martin.

In his FindProfit newsletter, he explains, "We believe that investors are beginning to realize that the competitive worries for satellite are overdone. In fact, satellite has actually picked up market share over the past year.

Via technology upgrades and strategic partnerships, he notes that DTV is poised to accelerate its competitive edge in the high-definition TV marketplace, while increasing the penetration of a variety of product 'add-ons,' such as high-definition boxes, DVRs, etc., that should boost margins.

He suggests, "As John Malone has done at other entities where he has significant influence such as Liberty Capital (NASDAQ: LCAPA), Liberty Global (NASDAQ: LBTYA), Expedia (NASDAQ: EXPE), and IAC\Interactive (NASDAQ: IACI), we expect DTV to move to buy-in significant amounts of stock over the coming year as it re-levers its balance sheet."
