  • It Looks Like a Winnebago with Wings!

    By John Casteele - May 20, 2013 | Tickers: NAV, THO, WGO

    My first encounter with an RV made by Winnebago Industries (NYSE: WGO) was in Mel Brooks' sci-fi spoof Spaceballs. I was only around 8 years old at the time, but the beat-up old Winnebago that Lonestar and Barf travelled the galaxy in stuck in my mind as a symbol of the open road. Imagine my surprise to grow up and find that Winnebagos currently only make up around 20 percent more »

  • 5 Reasons Bulls Will Have Their Way With This Stock

    By Neha Chamaria - May 17, 2013 | Tickers: CAT, CMI, NAV, PCAR

    PACCAR’s (NASDAQ: PCAR) first-quarter numbers were a bummer. Top and bottom lines missed Street estimates and the truck maker didn’t have anything substantial to say about the year ahead. Yet PACCAR’s stock has surprisingly gained momentum after the earnings announcement, rising more than 8% (as of this writing) since then.

    Do bulls really have a reason to stay active in the stock, or is the run going more »

  • 2 Truck OEM stocks to Buy, 1 to Hold

    By Zain Abbas - April 28, 2013 | Tickers: CMI, NAV, PCAR

    The global truck market has been showing different colors in different regions of the world. Emerging economies have been witnessing cyclical upside in truck markets. Brazil has been a super example of it, where demand for trucks accelerated ahead of expectations. However, the freight activity in the US and Europe remain far from a strong revival. This raises the question - which stocks to buy?

    Which is the best bet?

  • Commercial-Vehicle Industry Outlook Augurs Well for This Stock

    By Shas Dey - April 26, 2013 | Tickers: CAT, CMI, NAV

    As a major innovation in its product line, Cummins (NYSE: CMI) revealed its newly invented QSF3.8 engine at the BAUMA show in Munich.  It has a power output range up to 132 hp to meet specific requirements. Interestingly, after rising about 1.5% the same day (April 16), Cummins continued to fall for 4 consecutive trading-sessions to $106 on April 19, losing about 9%. Currently, the stock is trading more »

  • What's to Come for Cummins?

    By Marshall Hargrave - April 25, 2013 | Tickers: CAT, CMI, NAV

    Cummins (NYSE: CMI) is still facing pressure from a struggling economy, expecting to see full year 2013 revenues come in flat to down 5% year over year. However, as the economy rebounds, Cummins should perform nicely, which will also be spurred by increased demand for fuel economy improvements and new emission standards.  

    Its engine segment is its bread and butter, accounting for over 50% of sales. The segment produces engines more »

  • Insiders Are Buying These 2 Stocks Heavily...Should You?

    By Adem Tahiri - April 24, 2013 | Tickers: AGCO, DE, NAV

    Following large, recent, insider buying is a fun way to screen for stocks. It's not scientific, and shouldn’t be a central investment thesis, but it can be a very bullish sign. In fact, many studies have shown that stocks of companies with heavy insider buying go on to outperform the market by as much as 7%.

    I’ve combed through the stocks with large, recent insider purchases. Here more »

  • Pull Your Money Out of This Stock Before Next Week

    By Neha Chamaria - April 17, 2013 | Tickers: CMI, NAV, OSK, PCAR, WPRT

    Of the several industrial companies that will report their quarterly numbers next week, one I am going to watch closely is PACCAR (NASDAQ: PCAR). Despite the underlying weakness in the trucking industry, PACCAR’s stock has kept its positive momentum, gaining 8% year to date. It hit its 52-week high barely a month ago.

    Yet, the truck maker might find it hard to keep up this momentum, because several things more »

Despite the underlying weakness in the trucking industry, PACCAR’s stock has kept its chin up, gaining 8% year to date. It hit its 52-week high barely a month ago.

  • Should You Bet on These Turnaround Stories?

    By Jacob Wolinsky - April 13, 2013 | Tickers: GPS, NAV, P

    Companies and businesses are sometimes written off too quickly and afterwards make dramatic turnarounds; sometimes the returns are often super-normal when the company's stock soars as new (or existing) management turns things around.

    U.S. truckmaker Navistar (NYSE: NAV), Internet radio service provider Pandora (NYSE: P) and Gap (NYSE: GPS) are among such turnarounds that should be watched closely by investors seeking exceptionally good returns.

  • Big Worries For a Natural Gas Liquids Pure Play

    By Reuben Brewer - April 1, 2013 | Tickers: CLNE, NAV, RDS-B

    Clean Energy Fuels (NASDAQ: CLNE) is at the forefront of a push to switch the United States from gasoline to natural gas. While the potential benefits of such a change are huge, so are the risks for a relatively small company focused solely on that potential.

    Clean Energy is supporting the shift to natural gas fueled vehicles all along the transition. For example, it switches vehicle engines from more »

  • 3 Stocks Insiders Love

    By Mohsin Saeed - March 25, 2013 | Tickers: HMA, NAV

    There is still a lot of uncertainty in our financial markets due to general macroeconomic weaknesses. Consumer markets have been severely affected by the global recession and it is pretty difficult to asses the true long term value of any stock. There is a simplistic solution to assessing the future potential of a stock, however, and that is insider trades. In the last few months, the following companies have seen more »

  • This Company Could Become One of Buffett's Favorites (Part 7)

    By Anh HOANG - March 19, 2013 | Tickers: CAT, CMI, NAV

    In my previous articles, I wrote about several stocks, including Mosaic, Johnson Controls, Sysco and Parker-Hannifin, that possess characteristics similar to those that had been purchased by legendary investor Warren Buffett. These stocks were the screening results of Thompson Reuters’ StarMine model. In this article, I will cover one more stock that could become one of Warren Buffett’s favorites: Cummins Incorporated (NYSE: CMI).

  • Have You Already Put Your Money on This Turnaround Story?

    By Neha Chamaria - March 19, 2013 | Tickers: CAT, CMI, NAV, PCAR

    If only I had faith in this company. If only I had followed Carl Icahn’s footsteps. If only I had put in something in this stock. Just some of the thoughts haunting investors who gave Navistar International (NYSE: NAV) a miss after a tragic 2012. After all, the beleaguered truck maker’s stock has gained a mind boggling 51% in last six trading days (till March 12) alone.

  • Should We Follow Icahn Into This Loss Making Truck Maker?

    By Anh HOANG - March 13, 2013 | Tickers: BAESY.PK, NAV, PCAR

    Editor's Note: This version has been updated to clarify Navistar's incorporation date.

    Navistar’s (NYSE: NAV) share price has been extremely volatile for the past four years. The company’s share price has risen from $22.90 in Mar. 2009 to $69.50 in Apr. 2011, and then it plunged to only $19 in Oct. 2012.

  • Billionaire Carl Icahn Is Becoming An Active Activist

    By Marshall Hargrave - March 13, 2013 | Tickers: DELL, HLF, NAV, NFLX, RIG

    It seems everywhere we look, Carl Icahn is nipping at some company's heels, getting ready to bite. He is  the ultimate alpha investor. 60 Minutes profiled him in August 2008 and called his effect on a company's share price the “Icahn Lift.” The premise behind it is that Icahn boosts the value of a company's share price for other investors when he buys stock in that particular more »

  • When Being 'Short' Backfires!

    By Brian Nichols - March 12, 2013 | Tickers: NAV, P, SPPI, UNXL, PANL

    It Doesn’t Take Much to Reverse a Long-Term Shorted Stock

    Up until last week, Navistar International (NYSE: NAV) traded with a one-year loss of 42%. This is a stock that had seen an incredible downtrend since January 2011, and therefore had created a significant amount of short interest. Because after all, shorts want to invest in a stock that trades lower -- that’s how they make money.
