Stock Market Video: Tightening Range

In this week’s Stock Market Video Review, Cabot China & Emerging Markets Report Editor Paul Goodwin sees the market’s range of motion tightening up–with swings much narrower than they had been. This is a good sign, says Paul, as continuing tightening could lead to a new rally. But right now, there’s still lots of resistance, so Paul’s advice is to remain heavily in cash until the market direction becomes clearer. He names four stocks that he’s keeping a close eye on: Sohu.com (SOHU), Colfax Corp. (CFX), FMC Technologies and Fortinet (FTNT). Click below to watch the video!

Game On! In China

My stock pick for today is a Chinese Red Chip stock that has all the hallmarks of a big winner, but whose chart says a little more patience is necessary. The company is NetEase.com (NTES) a Chinese Web portal that offers a standard menu of Yahoo-like services, including news, blogs, search, matchmaking, social gathering spaces and so on. But what sets NetEase apart from other Chinese Web giants like Sina.com (SINA) and Baidu (BIDU) is that it derives 85% of its revenue from online gaming operations. The hot items among the company’s massively multiplayer online role-playing games are Fantasy...

While a few leaders are starting to surface in emerging markets, we’re nowhere near anything like a real bull market.

China Mobile (CHL) is the dominant wireless service provider in China, with well over a half billion subscribers. China Mobile became a powerhouse by rolling up the old leading provincial wireless networks and turning them into a national network. The company has hit some...

Stock Market Video: Good News

In this week’s Stock Market Video, Cabot China & Emerging Markets Report Editor Paul Goodwin says it’s good to have some good news after what seems like an extremely long period of counseling people to be patient. The major indexes look much better, which has given Cabot’s market timing indicators a buy signal. It’s time to put some money to work, but don’t jump in with both feet, instead, let the market pull you in. Stocks discussed: Express (EXPR), SanDisk (SNDK), Select Comfort (SCSS) and Sally Beauty (SBH). Click below to watch the video!

A Stock for Your Inner Value Investor

October 21, 2011
By

Despite my personal preference for growth stocks, there are times when an investor has to give a nod to reality. In a market like this, great setups for growth stocks are thin on the ground, and some of the old leaders are springing leaks left and right. So it’s a good time to get in touch with your inner value investor, and that’s what I’m doing with Tata Motors (TTM). Tata Motors is an Indian car and truck builder that manufactures an astonishing variety of vehicles, from the Tata Nano, the world’s cheapest, fully enclosed four-passenger car, to Jaguars...
