  • Is It Worth Investing in Paper?

    By Lior Cohen - April 23, 2013 | Tickers: HPQ, IP, XRX

    The recovery of Hewlett-Packard's (NYSE: HPQ) stock during the year made me think about paper and paper-related products as an investment. Is the paper industry profitable? I observed from watching the NBC hit show The Office that paper companies are suppose to lose money left and right; with the shift toward emails, paper has become superfluous in the office. Are paper-related products (printers, photo copiers, etc.) or paper worth more »

  • What to Focus on as Risk Aversion Rises for Tech Stocks

    By Chris Lau - April 17, 2013 | Tickers: AMAT, FSLR, NFLX, XRX

    A significantly large gap between consensus analyst targets and the share price of companies is a starting point for investors screening for investing ideas in a down market. After the Dow dropped a net 200 points on the week of April 15 2013 while the Nasdaq dropped 80 points, opportunities will arise for the patient investor.

  • The 3-D Printers: How Do the Players Stack Up?

    By BA McKenna - April 16, 2013 | Tickers: DDD, ONVO, SSYS, XONE, XRX

    3D Systems (NYSE: DDD) & Stratasys (NASDAQ: SSYS)have been printing money so fast that they're showing up the Fed! I was so sure of their ability to churn out the green last June that I did what I make a point not to do: initiate communication with a friend or relative about particular stocks using definitive terms. 

    The stocks of the two major 3-D printing companies have returned an more »

  • Why You Should Give This American Dream Another Chance!

    By Manoj Kochar - March 13, 2013 | Tickers: HPQ, MSFT, XRX

    There are numerous companies in the world who have turned from rags to riches, and again to rags. Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ) is one of those names. It was once the market leader in the tech world, then lost its way through a flurry of bad multi-billion dollar acquisitions, and also lost the innovative culture that had made it what it was in its glory days.

  • There Are Better Options Than This Document Equipment Manufacturer

    By Matthew Frankel - March 8, 2013 | Tickers: CAJ, HPQ, XRX

    Xerox ) has become synonymous with the copying industry, so much so that office workers will actually refer to a copier manufactured by another company as “the Xerox.”  However, with lower corporate spending and lower margins leading to flat revenue, I believe that this particular company is a bit too pricey, even at the single-digit P/E multiples that it trades for.

  • Dell's Opposition Grows, But Is It Enough?

    By Marshall Hargrave - February 25, 2013 | Tickers: DELL, HPQ, NOK, XRX

    How should investors trade the upheaval at Dell (NASDAQ: DELL)? And will this upheaval be enough to convince founder Michael Dell and Silver Lake to up their $13.65 per share offer to take the tech company private? Well the market sure things so--the stock is trading almost 2% above the buyout price. Shareholder opposition to the buyout has been growing, with the two largest outside shareholders, Southeastern Asset Management more »

  • These 2 Numbers Make This Yield Unsafe

    By Chad Henage - February 13, 2013 | Tickers: HPQ, PBI, XRX

    No matter what company you own, you have to try and keep an open mind. This was my approach to Pitney Bowes (NYSE: PBI) at the beginning of 2012. I knew the company's name, as I have used eBay for years, and I noticed, “Powered by Pitney Bowes” on the shipping labels I would print. I also remembered getting catalogs at my former job for Pitney Bowes shipping equipment. The company has been the standard in dealing with the U.S. Post Office for years. Of course, what honestly attracted me to the company at the beginning of last year was the yield. However, the yield doesn't mean much if the company doesn't perform well.

  • Buy for Dividends and Capital Appreciation

    By Adnan Khan - January 30, 2013 | Tickers: HPQ, IBM, XRX

    International Business Machines (NYSE: IBM) has reported another stellar quarter and its stock has since then appreciated approximately 5%. The company has beaten analyst earnings estimates for the 4th consecutive quarter. IBM remains one of the best technology bets around due to its high earnings visibility and track record of surprising the market with diversified growth. According to company disclosures it is aiming for a $20 EPS by 2015 more »

  • Does HP Have a Silver Lining?

    By Lior Cohen - January 25, 2013 | Tickers: AAPL, DELL, HPQ, XRX

    Some analysts think Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ) isn’t going anywhere. After all, the company’s revenues declined in 2012 by nearly 5.4% compared to 2011. Moreover, the industries the company operates in including personal computers and printers are stagnating and are likely to limit the possible growth of its revenues in the near future. So where does it leave Hewlett-Packard? Is HP’s situation so dire?

    By Shas Dey - January 15, 2013 | Tickers: PBI, SI, XRX

    A stock that had lost almost 44% in 2012, has gained nearly 12% since the advent of the New Year, and is expected to rise further and gain a bit of the lost ground. Pitney Bowes (NYSE: PBI) seems a good value pick for 2013 with promising returns compared to the risk.

  • Can Anything Save This Yield?

    By Chad Henage - December 27, 2012 | Tickers: HPQ, PBI, XRX

    It should be no secret that I love stocks that pay a good dividend. In fact, over the last year or so I've shifted most of my personal portfolio into what I would call growth and income stocks. This isn't because I'm afraid of the economy melting down, or because I don't have enough guts to stick with a stock that pays no yield. Instead, I've chosen to go with dividend payers because they offer an attractive combination of traits. Many of these companies pay yields that are much higher than investors can get with fixed income, and several are expected to grow their earnings by double-digits over the next few years. With dividend reinvestment, I hope to beat the market averages. There is one company I've had my eye on for over a year, and yet I can't bring myself to buy despite its huge yield, that is Pitney Bowes (NYSE: PBI).

  • MPS: A Tipping Point for 2013?

    By Shweta Dubey - December 26, 2012 | Tickers: CAJ, HPQ, XRX

    Managed Print Services (MPS) has emerged as a new and effective approach for improving the productivity and reducing printing costs for organizations. I was reading this report, from Photozio Group, which gives an interesting depiction (figure below) on how the market share of Managed Printing Services is going to rise in the coming years.

  • Over The Long Term, You Will Surely Like This Company

    By Naomi Warmate-Igwe - December 26, 2012 | Tickers: HPQ, NOK, XRX

    If you have taken the time to compare the history of Nokia (NYSE: NOK) and that of Xerox  (NYSE: XRX), you will surely agree with me that these great companies have one or more things in common. In the first instance, these companies started out as manufacturers of high quality products.

    Value Traps or end of Year Bargains?

    I am always interested in hunting for bargains amongst stocks trading below their book values. There are, however, a lot of value traps in this universe, so we need to eliminate some of the obvious losers. To select the more promising stocks out there, I have screened for all stocks trading at less than their book values. To remove the more risky stocks more »
