This May be the Best Emerging Market to Own Right Now
2012-02-07 17:30:00 Many investors have rejected emerging markets, and I can't say I blame them. As a group, emerging markets really went sour in 2011, dropping nearly 19% and trailing the S&P 500's 2% gain by about 21%. Still, I urge those who feel these markets are nothing but bad news to reconsider. After returning 76% in 2009 and 19% in 2010, they were due for a pullback. But now, emerging markets have resumed their upward march, rising more than 14% so far this year, compared with about a 6% gain for the S&P 500. Now seems an especially good time for investors to jump into emerging markets, because their future once again looks bright. Assuming Europe's debt crisis continues . . . → Read More: This May be the Best Emerging Market to Own Right Now

Why Wall Street Experts are Getting Nervous about this Rising Market
2012-02-06 16:00:00 At the start of each year, the chief strategists at Wall Street firms analyze dozens of variables and make bold prognostications for the year ahead. They distill all of their conclusions into one simple number — the S&P 500, and where it will reside one year hence. As these strategists were putting their forecasts together, they surely noted that the S&P 500 was marching nicely higher. Trouble is, it keeps moving up and is starting to already breach the more conservative forecasters on the Street. More than a few of these folks predicted the S&P 500 would end the year around 1,325. We've already surpassed that mark, and we've got 11 months to go! To be . . . → Read More: Why Wall Street Experts are Getting Nervous about this Rising Market

Google Hires Bouncer For Android Market Party
2012-02-03 12:54:00 Google’s Android ecosystem has been getting a lot of flak since malicious apps were discovered in the Android Market last year. Google had to remotely swipe off these entire app from every user’s phone. Besides the fact that kind of access into my personal phone is a little creepy, this ‘remote swiping’ did not actually offer a solution since Google would find out about these apps only after they had infected user’s phone. Now, Google has announced that they may have finally have the solution to this problem it’s called the ‘Bouncer’. The Bouncer is a server side application which scours the apps that have been submitted to the Market to find out about any malicious activity. This service will not only check for new applications but will also scan pre-existing apps. “Device activations grew 250% year-on-year, and the total number of app downloads from Android Market topped 11 billion,” Hiroshi Lockheimer, VP of engineering, posted on the Google Mobile Blog. ...

Is The Stock Market Getting A Bit Ahead Of Itself?
2012-01-31 17:10:00 “You are neither right nor wrong just because the crowd disagrees with you. You are right because your data and reasoning are right.” In investing much is said about the folly of following the crowd. It’s voiced in age-old maxims like “The market will do whatever it must to fool the majority,” and Warren Buffett’s advice to “Be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful”. It’s measurable in investor sentiment statistics, which clearly show that investors tend to be overly fearful and pessimistic at market lows, not willing to participate when the market turns up, and then overly bullish and confident at market tops, not believing a rally has ended. The current . . . → Read More: Is The Stock Market Getting A Bit Ahead Of Itself?

BlackBerry Losing Its Grip On The Market Share?
2012-01-31 11:57:00 Once, BlackBerry was the default choice of enterprise customers for their communication needs. But, that is changing fast, especially in the established markets like North America and Europe, according to a New York Times report. Apple has captured a significant market share from Reserach In Motion (the makers of BlackBerry) in North America, where it once was a dominant player. Samsung is slated to do the same in the other established market of RIM i.e. Europe with its Android operating system. BlackBerry is still going strong in developing markets. But, it is finding it difficult to hold on to its market share in more developed countries. While Apple Inc’s iOS and Google Inc’s Android operating systems have captured a lot of imagination, RIM has failed to innovate in recent years. Hence, many enterprise customers are switching from BlackBerry to other platforms. According to a recent global survey on information workers by research firm Forrester, 27% smartphon...

My $100,000 Portfolio Strategy for this Changing Market
2012-01-31 02:00:00 Roughly a month ago, I was quite excited to launch a new $100,000 Real-Money Portfolio here at StreetAuthority. The market offered plenty of bargains and was looking quite healthy from a technical perspective. Sure enough, the S&P 500 is up nearly 5% in January and up roughly 15% from the start of the fourth quarter of 2011. But this creates a real conundrum. Is it best to infer that the recent strong market performance is simply a precursor to even more gains for the rest of 2012? Or is it wiser to take a foot off the gas and hold off on further purchases until the market catches its breath? Technical analysts are beginning to cite concern, . . . → Read More: My $100,000 Portfolio Strategy for this Changing Market

The Market Leader in a Fast-Growing Industry
2012-01-26 14:30:00 We humans are pretty predictable. We live our lives in certain patterns and according to certain preferences. There was a time when no one knew what those preferences were. The guy taking my order at a restaurant might remember I like Diet Coke, or the mechanic might remember something about my car, but these observant people were the exception, not the rule. And they didn't talk to each other. There was no network. That has changed. When my wife and I moved to West Virginia, we had a number of things we needed to find, fast. A grocery store.

The Philadelphia Housing Sector Index, or HGX plunged to 73.65 in October. But then it started rising, ultimately tagging 109.65 this week. That’s a gain of 49 percent in just a couple months. Some individual stocks in the sector performed even better. Leading home builder Pulte Group (PHM), for instance, more than doubled. So what’s going on?

Vizio hits PC market
2012-01-08 15:25:00 Vizio is targeting the two of the fastest-growing categories for PC makers: ultra-thin laptops and so-called all- in-ones — desktop machines with built-in monitors. Still, those areas is getting more crowded. Hewlett-Packard will introduce a new all-in-one PC for $1,200 at theConsumer Electronics Show, and other computer makers are unveiling slimmer laptops, a category known as ultrabooks. Hewlett-Packard is betting that the ultrabook category will resemble other parts of the PC market, with consumers and businesses asking for different designs that meet their needs, said Page Murray, a marketing vice president. “I don’t believe there’s a one-size-fits-all laptop out there, like some of our competitors might,” Murray said. Driving down prices isn’t a viable long-term strategy, he said. “There’s always going to be somebody who wants to win a race to the bottom,” Murray said. “But you get what you pay for in many of those situations.” V...

Finding Growth in a Flat Energy Market: Tim Murray
2012-01-05 23:00:00 The Energy Report: Tim, what is your investment thesis right now? Tim Murray: It hasn’t changed since the last time we talked. We are biased towards oil plays. But we will look at selective natural gas players and we prefer the lowest-cost producers as well as the companies with a larger production base. TER: Are you currently telling investors that they need to be patient? TM: Yes. Most of the small/micro cap stories have seen a dramatic drop in share price over the last year; however, WTI (West Texas Intermediate) is hovering around $100/barrel (/bbl), and oil companies should be able to generate strong cash flow at these levels.

Why 2012 Should Be Better Than 2011 For The Stock Market
2011-12-28 20:26:00 U.S. economy has been in recovery mode and is steadily gaining momentum A year ago there was widespread confidence that with the recession having ended in June, 2009, the economy continuing to recover, further QE2 easing underway, and the stock market clearly in a new bull market, that 2011 was going to be a great year. In my annual forecast last December I agreed the year would be positive in the early months, but that the economy would begin to slow again once the effects of the Fed’s QE2 program expired. I expected that would spook the stock market into a substantial correction during the market’s often unfavorable summer months, and only after that correction would . . . → Read More: Why 2012 Should Be Better Than 2011 For The Stock Market

4 Reasons to be Optimistic about the Stock Market in the Years Ahead
2011-12-22 02:00:00 We've reached the time of year when investors flip the calendar and try to anticipate the events to come for 2012. I've weighed in with my own near-term strategies and provided a glimpse of my three favorite sectors for the coming year. Right now, bearish factors such the European crisis, still-high unemployment rates and a pervading sense that Washington can do no right are the key factors behind the market. Indeed, the S&P 500 is down roughly 10% since late July, and it feels even worse than that. Stocks could slump even more — recall that they were quite cheap at the start of 2009 and fell even further for the next two months before posting a stunning . . . → Read More: 4 Reasons to be Optimistic about the Stock Market in the Years Ahead
