    Investors everywhere are wondering if now is the time to sell their stocks. With stocks at all-time highs who can blame them? It seems that everything has doubled or tripled in price, since the 2009 lows, and the market is now much higher than it was before the crash of 2008.

  • This Large Cap Manufacturer Is a Steal Below Liquidation Value

    By Ted Cooper - May 7, 2013 | Tickers: BDX, GLW, TEL

    It is not often that you come across a large cap stock trading below liquidation value, but that is exactly the case with Corning (NYSE: GLW). The company sells right at, or slightly below, tangible book value, which is a rough approximation of what shareholders would receive if the company decided to close its doors and sell its assets today.

    Although Corning is unlikely to liquidate in the near future more »

  • 2 Big Dividend Hikes

    By Timothy Green - April 27, 2013 | Tickers: AAPL, GLW

    There's nothing better than a company boosting its dividend. In The Ultimate Dividend Growth Portfolio I added both Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) and Corning (NYSE: GLW) even though the dividends for both companies were fairly new and the yields at the time of purchase were below what I typically like to see. I added them because I thought that there was a very good chance that we'd see substantial more »

    Warren Buffett deserves much of the credit for the rise in popularity of value investing. Even casual market observers are intimately familiar with the Oracle of Omaha's investing style and could probably recite the tenets of his strategy from memory. Buffett's approach to the stock market has also significantly influenced younger value investors such as hedge fund managers David Einhorn and Seth Klarman.

    By Brett Mayo - April 17, 2013 | Tickers: AAPL, GLW, GOOG, SSNLF

    I feel like I should preface this with saying that I am not an Apple hater. I'm typing this on my 2007 MacBook Pro that still runs better than my 2007 Chrysler LeBaron. (And this Apple has used way less oil.)

    But let's face it, the reaction to the iPhone 5 was disappointing.
