Buying SEARS for the quality of its management

Buying SEARS for the quality of its management - by Renzie10

The economy is expected to recover in the coming years and the retail industry would surely benefit from the rebound. There are two to considerations in buying and holding SHLD. First, being one of the largest retailer. Second, and probably the main reason for the purchase of the stock is being led by Mr. Eddie Lampert.

Sears is said to be the fourth largest broadline retailer with approximately 3,900 full-line and specialty retail stores in the United States and Canada. Its stores offer home appliances; footwear; groceries; and automotive accessories, repair, and maintenance services, as well as operate in-store pharmacies. Sears claims to have over 12 million calls annually in their home services which in my opinion would increase together with the economic recovery. Sears Holdings Corporation operates through its subsidiaries, including Sears, Roebuck and Co. and Kmart Corporation. With the above information, Sears has no doubt will have an increased cash inflow this 2010 which would provide more cash inflow for Mr. Eddie Lampert ot invest.

Mr. Eddie Lampert has carefully studied Buffett for years. He started reading and rereading Buffett's writings while working at Goldman after college. Like Mr. Warren Buffet, Mr. Lampert targets mature and easily understandable businesses that have strong cash flows. Both focus on companies that has an ability to generate large amounts of cash which is the main characteristics of his holdings. Mr. Lampert would rather buy back shares rather than boost capital spending, a move that increases shareholders' value.

Sears Holding Corporation which is led by Mr. Eddie Lampert has a characteristics similar as a mutual fund. With its resources focused to few investments and considering Mr. Lampert's track records, holding SHLD has the most probability of beating the market or the S&P 500 provided that it is held atleast for 3 years.

Poem - by Shahid

There is a place where the sidewalk ends

And before the street begins,
And there the grass grows soft and white,
And there the sun burns crimson bright,

And there the moon-bird rests from his flight
To cool in the peppermint wind.

Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black
And the dark street winds and bends.
Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow
We shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And watch where the chalk-white arrows go
To the place where the sidewalk ends.

Yes we'll walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And we'll go where the chalk-white arrows go,
For the children, they mark, and the children, they know
The place where the sidewalk ends

Economy Difficult, but Signs of Firming Seen: GE CEO

The economy is still difficult, but we’re seeing some signs of firming, General Electric CEO Jeff Immelt told CNBC in an interview.
"I think that while the economy is still difficult, we’re starting to firm," said Immelt. "We’re starting to see that the sequential appliance orders are firming, we’re starting to see some signs that businesses are ready to invest again. I think in certain ways, companies have to make their own rallies right now…I think as we get more confidence in the system, we have to pull our ways out of this.”
GE posted better-than-expected quarterly profit last Friday, as a strong performance at its large energy operation offset declines at the GE Capital finance and NBC Universal units.
“Financial services was tough as expected, but we still made money,” said Immelt. “Some of the shorter cycles like advertising on NBC are still in a difficult phase. [But] I was quite encouraged in our infrastructure orders and how our infrastructure businesses did.

Comments:
The CEO of GE has spoken on CNBC that economy is firming.They have given good profits as well.
It is one of the oldest co in lighting and electricals.More over Warren Buffet has also taken stake and that too at $24 around and it is almost less then half the price from there.
With stimulous pacakage of Obama , I think GE is going to be a wealth creator in coming years.
One can easily get 100% return in couple of years and that is a great return by USA standard....

IndiaMCX Market Updates 16th March 2009 - by IndiaMCX

H! Friends,

Today Whole Market Slightly Open On "Red-Carpet" Except Copper; Gold/Silver Both Created Newer Lows & Now Trying 2 Survive On Higher Sides. If Both Precious Metals "Break/Holds" Above Day's High Successfully in Next 1 Hr. Than in The Evening Session We Can See Good "Fire-Works" Over These Counters But If Both Items Successfully "Break/Holds/Closed" Below Day's Low Than We Can See Good Rally Down in Next 1-3 Day's. So Here is Good Oppournity Knocking 4 Both Sides Try 2 Grab This Move.

Yesterday "Base-Metals" Fallen 4rm There Highs & We Had Seen Good Bounce in Base; Specially in Copper. Bz Copper is The King of Base Metals So All Other Metals Are Following Him. As Per Weekly Projection Copper Having Good Resistance Zone Somewhere Around 197-198 Zone. Till Its Not Able 2 Cross This Zone Traders Can Try 2 Build Shorts But After Crossing These Levels Don't Try 2 Remain Short Bz It Can Fire Like Anything Above These Levels.

OPEC Didn't Cut The Production So Today Crude Oil Opened On Gap Down As Per Our Expectations (As Per Our Time Discovery Theory We Had Clearly Indicated in Our Previous View On Friday That Crude May Slide Badly Upto 2400-2350 & It Moved As Per Our View) Along With All Energy Counters. Now Crude Oil Trading in A Middle Band & We'r Expecting Good Sell Off Still Possible in Crude Oil But Only Below 2290 Zone Till It May Trade in A Band.

Natural Gas & Heating Oil Both Items Trading in A Band So Here is A Good Oppournity Available 4 Bulls & Bears. Buy Till Not Breaks 190/55 Zones.

Which Clearly Indicating That Both Sides Moves Still Possible. Right Now Both Precious Metals Trading On Lower Channels. If They Both Didn't Break Day's Low in Next 30-45 Minutes & Successfully "Break/Holds" Above Day's High Than Watch The Nice "Fire-Works" in Evening Session. But Unfortunately If Both "Break/Holds" Below Day's Low in Next 30-45 Minutes Than We Can See Good Rally Down Over These Metals. So Here is Good Opportunity 4 "Bulls/Bears" & I'm Sure Both Can Print Good Money Over These Counters So Try 2 Grab The Best Possible Move Here.

After Very Long Time Today We Had Witnessed A Good Profit Taking in "Base-Metals" & Now They Are Trying 2 Find Support On Lower Channels. If They "Break/Holds" Above Day's High in Next 30-45 & Successfully Survive Till LME Than Till 3:30 They May Create Good "Fire-Works" Here.

Today Again Energy Counters Rocking Well They Are Trading Above 100 Day's DMA Successfully & in International Market After A Long While Crude Oil Closed Above $46. Now Technically This Counter is Ready 2 Kiss $48 Figure Soon. The Support Zone is Looking Around $42.50 & Still Graphs Are Not Entered in Overbought Zones So More Upward Lifting Possible Over This Counter.

Natural Gas Trying 2 Find Support Around $3.900 But Still Facing Problem $4.30 Any Side "Break/Holds/Closed" Mean We Can See Natural Gas in A New Territory So Try 2 Grab The Best Possible Move Over Here Than Only U Can Print Good Money Over Here.

To start, this stock is 100% free, at that price, it has only one way to go! - by jeno654321

This stock is even pre-IPO but the beauty is: it's free! I do not recall Ebay, Myspace, Facebook, or any other major internet player offering me free stock. Today I present to you a site of the future, to be a "virtual world" with real world results and....the members are to be the OWNERS! Remember: Ebay was nothing more than a way for a lady to network and facilitate her collection of Pedz candy containers. Now it's become the internet "mega auction" site. Facebook was only launched in 2004 and is already valued over 15billion dollars. There is alot to say and regardless of what I say, you can simply squash it by saying it is pure speculation. Frankly, at first I joined just because of the free stock but then, I slowed down enough to read, and reread all the information they offer. I ask respectfully of you to do the same, I believe you may find it uniquely interesting. When you sign up you are allocated 250 free shares and you may receive 500 more for each person you refer, no limit. The stock today obviously is of no value but....I ask you: what if this takes off the way it is planned? They are targeting 80 to 120 million members by 12/2012 and only yesterday just broke the 250,000 mark. I am placing the url here which, yes, includes my unique ID so I may get referral shares that I politely ask you to use. (When you join, you may do the same with your referrals). Please copy & paste: http://www.me2everyone.com//200120 Once you are joined I urge you to go to the "signout page" and on the bottom left of that page is a link for more information and to answer questions. I say this is a must read...there are only 9 easy to manage pages with brief, but concise information. This is where you will really open your eyes and get a real sense of what this is and, if you are at all like me, you will begin to see the realistic value and reality of such a site. We are all being invited to own and share in the future of this site so whether your choice is solely financial or more diversified, this is a must do. Bottom line? The real risk in stock is that of loss of principal. Here you have eliminated that risk and as I see it, up is the only way for this to go. I do appreciate your time in reading this and I sincerely hope you maintain an open mind in 'taking a look" at what could be the next " mega site" ....Owned by us.... I will appreciate your comments as well...! Respectfully, Jeno Koch/Member & Shareholder/me2everyone.com

H! Friends,

Today Whole Metals Open On Lower Sides. Precious Metals Looking 2 Take Sharp Bounce But 1st Weakness Enters in Both Items So 4rm Higher Levels We Can See Some Profit Takings. But We Can Try 2 Go Long on Lower Channels.

After 3rd Day Base Metals Didn't Succeed 2 Close On Day's High So Today We Are Witnessing Some Profit Taking Over These Counters. If Today They Didn't Break There Previous Supports So We Can See Good Melting After London Market Openings. But If B4 London Market Open They Break Yesterday's Highs Than We Can See Good "Fire-Works" in Evening Session Due 2 Expiry Fever..........

Yesterday Again Crude Oil Fired Like Anything; It Broken Previous Resistance of $45 & Now Trying 2 Eat Next Resistance of $48-$50. If Today It Successfully "Break/Holds" Closed Above These Levels Than We Can More Fire-Works in Coming Day's.

IndiaMCX Market Updates 24th Feb 2009 + Thought of The Day - by IndiaMCX

H! Friends,

Yesterday "Precious Metals" Fired in Late Session & Whole Other Items Crushed; Again Crude Fallen 4rm Its Top & Still Fighting With Long Term Bears. Today Gold/Silver Opened Slightly Negative But in Patterns Still No Damage & Graphs Fully Controlled in Bulls. 1st Turning in Gold Looking Possible If Successfully "Break/Holds/Closed" Below $970 Than We Can Eye On $950-$930 & If Market Successfully "Break/Holds/Closed" Above $1020 Than It Will Be The Worst 4 Bears It May Jump Upto $1040 in Coming Day's So Traders Use Strict Stops in Ur Positions Bz Still The Volatility Index On Peak So We Can See Huge Move in Both Sides.

Yesterday "Base-Metals" Again Faced Good Bear Attack Which Clearly Indicating That Its Just Moving With Traders Positions. Expiry is Near & I'm 100% Sure That Most of Small/Medium Traders Heavily Stucked in There Long Positions. So Till Expiry No Major Recovery Possible & in The Terms of Badla They Have 2 Face More Pain in The Coming Day's.

Yesterday Energy Counters Opened On Higher Zones But They Had Crushed Badly As Per Our Expectations Thats Why Again We Sold Heavily & All Traders Printed Good Money. These Day's Crude Oil Moving in A Very Good "Trading Band" Forget The Investment Buying or Selling Just Try 2 Print Money in Intraday Trading. Today Bulls May Enter Over This Counter On Huge Decline; So Traders Can Try 2 Grab This Opportunity But Use Strict Stops Bz Below $36-$35 It Has 2 Kiss Our Dream Trgt of $30.75.

Thought of The Day

In The Past Commodities Market Driven By Demand/Supply Ratio. But These Day's Commodities Market Fully Speculative Market & Everybody Doing Here "Paper-Trading". So Forget That There is No Demand, Weekly Crude Oil Inventory Building Thats Why Crude Oil Falling. All These Markets Driven By Speculators.

India's is Worlds Largest Gold Consumer. I Know More Than 100 Jewelers/Importers/Retailers in India & Everybody Facing No Sale, No Demand But Supply (Recycling) On Full Swing But Still Gold Zooming Its Only Due 2 Heavy Short Build-Ups By The Small Traders. We Had Seen Same Speculation in Crude Oil Last Year When It Wat Trading Around $85 & Every Week All Inventories Build Up But Still It Was Rocking Due 2 Heavy Shorts By Small Traders. So Try 2 Use Ur Own Mind & Take Small Risk 4 Big Gains - IndiaMCX

H! Friends,

Today Whole Market Opened On "Mixed-Zone". Precious Metals Opened On Lower Sides Due 2 Profit Taking But Energy Counters & Base Metals Opened Slightly Positive Zone. Now Whole Market Trying 2 Consolidate That It Will Decide The Next Trend. Gold Broken The Support of $987-$982 & Sharply Bounced 4rm The Support of $980 Now Bulls May Again Take Entry With Positional Stops of $950; Major Trend Reversal in This Giant Only Below $900 & Technically Its Fully in Bulls Grip. So Try 2 Avoid Any Positional Entry & Grab Intraday Moves Only.

Today "Base Metals" Shown Some Recovery Now If Today These Metals Closed On Higher Node Than We Can See More Upward in Coming Day's. But If Today Again They Turned Back 4rm Here That Mean Till Expiry Bears May Rule Over These Counters.

Energy Counters Bounced Sharply & They Eaten Good Stops in Nymex; Now $45 is The Next Challenge 4 Bulls. If They Successfully Eat This Level in Coming Day's Than No Doubt It Can Shine Like Previous Zoom. So Try 2 Grab The Move Over These Counters.

No “Big Dreams” Only “Solid RETURNs”

USA Economy and its Financial Crisis,,,,,,,,,,,,,

2010-03-15T04:55:15Z

USA Economy and its Financial Crisis,,,,,,,,,,,,, - by rajiv

USA Economy and its Financial Crisis............

Friends,
I am trying to look through US economy and the financial crisis.My interpretation maybe wrong as I am no Economics guys.I am science student and by default came to stock market and then I get interested in stocks and cos and went on making certain rules for investing in market .What ever I have written about the investing and what to look and when to look , maybe they are age old saying of investing in stock market but then I have never read any book on stock market nor read any Masters like Wareen Buffet ,Benjamin Graham,Peter Lynch or Charli Munger etc etc.....
I always thought that learning by mistakes is the best process and hence never bought those books where scores or thousands of investor use to read and follow.
Moreover, investing is a RISK and one needs to be daring in nature to invest in certain co at very early stage when no one is looking at.This type of investing needs lots of daring and this Daring comes from within or say it comes with birth.One can't learn it and that is why there is only one Dhirubhai Ambani or one Warren Buffet.
I also feel that more the person is acadamically qualified more he is defensive in nature and that is a big nagative for investing.When person starts thinking in defensive manner, like say what will happen if the cos do not do well according to what is said by management then he will never invest in it.That is a draw back.Well,those who invested thinking that A gr stocks are the best to invest must also be repenting in this scenario.
There is nothing like good co or bad co, good management or bad management.Market is the slave of earnings and as soon as market sees that the stocks starts moving.Maybe sometime market takes time to show that but patience is always rewarded.
In both the above example eg Dhirubhai Ambani and Warren Buffet , they were average in studies.They were no great scholars.Actually Dhirubhai Ambani was just a matriculate.Just try to read any big business man they were very mediocre in studies and the likes of Bills Gates , oh! they were dropouts from college.Bill Gates even didn't complete his colloge.
What makes them successful?The Vision and clarity of what they wants to do.....and the way they stick to their Goals.
Anyway, coming back to US Crisis, I feel that US economy can still go down.They have deficit of $700 bn and how they are going do that ?How they are going to fill the gap?Their export is just arms and ammunations.US do not make anything they inports everything from world over.US has taken billions of dollars of loan from all over the world through treseury bills and they will have to pay it back.How they are going to do that?Not a single American belives in saving.They just save for Old age , and that too if they have good job otherwise they live on paycheck to paycheck.I just read today that a 90 year old man lost $7,00,000 in this financial crisis and now at the age of 90 he has to work at $10/hr! That is just rediculous.How can a person at 90 has to work at this age at just $10/hr when he needs to sit with his great grandsons and have leisure and have great time he has to go out and do the job?
Is this the American System and is this the way people are going to have to bear the brunt?I think there needs to be some radical changes in the whole thinking at the Top man at White House.The CEO's became arrogant that they didn't see what was happening in the financial world and went on creating mistakes after mistakes and to cover one mistake they went to do other mistakes.These CEO's were just interested in their fat salaries and they are the culprit to bring the economics crisis.I just am not able to understand that after infusing $700 bn still the US crisis is not taking name to subside anyway.Obama is ready with another $700 bn stimulous pacakage but will it end there!Bear Stren, UBS,Citi,Lehman,Goldman Scahs etc etc are all drowned in the credit crunch.New skeleton is coming out one by one and there seems to be no end.People are loosing money in 401k and IRD.People who put their money in these plans have lost $1,00,000 to $7,00,000 and more and the pity is that these are people who are in very old age and they needs the money badly and they have lost everything.How this type of incident are going to be averted is a big big problem.Now US government is thinking of nationalizing all banks but what about the money lost?Who will pay that?Being sick is a CRIME in USA.The bills goes so big that never a person can pay it in his whole life.If do not have Medical Insurance you are gone.Even with Medical Insurance one has to still dole out money and that can go to 5000 to 10000 dollars according to the treatment.
Obama is saying he will takecare of this thing but what he will be able to do needs to be seen as the Pharmaceutical Lobby with Doctors is very powerful.They will never let happen that way.
Printing money and infusing in system makes no sense.That will give rise to inflation and that will increase the turmoils of people in America.What America does is SPENDING, they just spend and nothing else.The Auto sector eg GM,Ford , Landrover,Jaguar etc are good for nothing and all had gone bankrupt.Thousands of people has been laidoff.The unemployment figures that has come is highest since many decades.Housing is down and that is the biggest stimulous of USA.When that is down who will survive.Obama is talking of putting a brake on outsourcing but who will do these jobs ass cheap as Indians?Any IT Eng gets no less then $70,000 and that is Rs 35 lacs.Who is going to pay this type of salary to the IT Eng in USA?Where as same jobs is done in India with just RS 60,000 at any BPO ceentre .Just compare the figures.Maybe IT Eng gets more salary but is no where near to the pay USA will have to pay in USA perticularly when the chips are down for US company and economy.
I am just giving an example.I bought a Lexmark printer , a wireless one.I installed the software but didn't do it correctly and hence with UBS cord it was working but not without it.I called Lexmark and asked for the assitance and you know where I was connected?I was connected to Banglore.Now why Lexmark has to give customer service work to Indians?Naturally it is coming very cheap.That is the catch and to put it properly, the things were done very nicely and precisely.The wireless software was installed again very properly and the job was done greatly.Now tell me where in the world US will get this type of work done with 100% customer satisfaction and that too so CHEAP?Nowhere in the world but India.
There are almost 50% of population who do not goes for College.They drops out from school or just complete 12th and leave the school and start earning at $9-10 /hr.They think that they will earn and then go for college but that never happens as once you start earning it is diffcult to leave that job because the money that comes in the pocket makes you feel not to go for further studies.I have seen that once you leave the study it needs lots of guts and determination to go back there and hence I feel that Indian way is the best way for all children.First complete the studies and then take the job.Focus only on studies and nothing else.
On every new day I am hearing newer and newer scams coming out.I am not sure where it is going to end as still the credit card crisis is still to surface.
Let us see, where we land............but on optimist note let me write, it has to end somewhere.....

IndiaMCX Market Updates 20th Feb 2009 - by IndiaMCX

H! Friends,

Today Whole Market Opened On "Higher-Mode". Specially "Precious-Metals" Sector; Yesterday Both Metals Cracked; Specially Crashed Badly So It Was An Technical Recovery Bz On The Patterns Both Metals Still Having Potential 2 Take A Zoom Again; The Graphs Will Collapse Only If Silver Successfully Closed 3 Day's Below 22000 Till We Have 2 Say That The Situation is Totally Under Control With Bulls. Gold Yesterday Not Plunged As Silver; Due 2 Huge Short Positions of Small Traders. As Per The Graphs Its Still Indicating That The Prices Can Move Much Higher 4rm Here With The Help of INR Vs USD Also.

Yesterday We Had Witnessed Some Pull Back in "Base-Metals" Prices But Today Again They Are Figthing With Bears; As Per Our View More Than 60% Peoples Are Holding Heavy Long Positions in Copper Somewhere Around 175-178 Zones; So I Think More Pain Possible On The Way's of Bulls in Coming Day's Due 2 "Bearish-Divergen" & "Base-Metals-Expiry". So Traders Should Avoid Heavy Fresh Long Positions in These Counters.

Yesterday Engergy Counters Moved As Per Our Predicted Path (Our Traders Had Printed Good Money in Natural Gas Shorts & Crude Oil Shorts Than Long Positions); They Bounced Sharply 4rm There Lower Channel Supports Except Natural Gas; Bz There is A Huge Gap Theory Working & We'r Expecting That 185-175 May Be Possible Over This Counter in Coming Day's. After Mid-March Only We Can Expect Some Seasonal Recovery Over Here; Till Bulls Have 2 Face Good Problem 4rm The Bear's Side.
