  • New Owners of U.K. Banks and Automakers

    By Alexander MacLennan - May 6, 2013 | Tickers: LYG, RBS, TTM

    In the United States, American banks have managed to repay their debts and emerge from partial government ownership. But the situation across the pond isn’t the same. Some U.K. based banks are still partially in government hands rendering their futures less certain than their foreign counterparts. However, the banks aren’t the only ones under new ownership. Two of the most famous British automakers are now owned by more »

  • Why Equity

    By Jorge Polanco - April 8, 2013 | Tickers: BP, CAT, KO, TTM

     Stocks represent the expectations of future business and are priced according to the investors' perception of what those will be.

  • India Isn't China, So Bet On India?

    By Reuben Brewer - April 1, 2013 | Tickers: INFY, TTM, WIT

    India rivals China based on population. However, it hasn't managed to achieve the same success as China in its industrialization efforts. Now could be a good time to invest in India with stocks that have international operations.

    India isn't China

    China and India share many traits. For example, both have massive populations and a foundation in an agrarian economy. China, however, with its strong central government, has been more »

    Many value investors have been insisting for some time that US auto-makers Ford (NYSE: F) and General Motors (NYSE: GM) are attractive stocks. GM, in fact, was one of the five most popular stocks among hedge funds in the fourth quarter of 2012.

    Billionaire David Einhorn of Greenlight Capital made his case for GM (though his take could also apply to Ford and the auto industry more generally) at October more »

    By Manoj Kochar - March 3, 2013 | Tickers: TTM, TM, VLKAY

    “Money may not buy happiness, but I'd rather cry in a Jaguar than on a bus.” 

    I have always been a huge admirer of Mr. Ratan Tata. He single-handedly transformed the Tata group from an India-centric business conglomerate to a multinational business enterprise, that draws about 60 percent of its revenue from abroad. In this article, I will put into perspective about what makes Tata Motors (NYSE: TTM) a more »

  • Invest in America with Ford Motor Company

    By Joseph Solitro - February 27, 2013 | Tickers: F, GM, TTM

    Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) is as American as baseball, hot dogs, and apple pie. My father, both of my brothers, and myself all began driving in Fords. My father's first car was a 1971 Ford F-100, my oldest brother's was a 1984 Mustang, my middle brother's was a 2003 F-150, and my first was a 2004 F-150.

  • Are We Going Overboard With the Natural Gas Hype?

    By Neha Chamaria - February 5, 2013 | Tickers: CMI, F, PCAR, TTM, WPRT

    What do you make of a situation when a company that dominates the heavy-duty natural-gas truck market in the U.S. says stuff about the gas that’s anything but exciting? A pin-popping balloon? Quite like, especially after the hullabaloo President Obama’s re-election as POTUS has created over the fuel.

    I follow companies like PACCAR (NASDAQ: PCAR) and Cummins (NYSE: CMI) closely and never miss either’s earnings release more »

  • Tata Motors is Right on Track

    By Josef Ray Dagatan - January 17, 2013 | Tickers: DDAIY, DDAIF.PK, F, TTM

    Stocks in emerging markets have been the stuff of financial legends. They can either be a boon or a bane depending on who you talk to, and can either add a fortune to your income or drag down a portfolio that isn’t diversified enough. In the case of India’s largest manufacturer of automobiles, which is the case? Tata Motors (NYSE: TTM) isn’t a company that has a more »

  • Ford Looks Cheap Now, But Will They Meet Expectations?

    By Matthew Frankel - January 15, 2013 | Tickers: F, GM, TTM

    Ford (NYSE: F), the second largest U.S. automaker, has done very well since the world seemed to be crashing down around the auto industry in 2008.  Since hitting a low of $1.21 late that year, the stock is up 1,047%, one of the most incredible post-crisis rebounds of any stock I’ve looked at.  The low coincided with General Motors’ (NYSE: GM) bankruptcy, and I clearly remember more »
