Because of the magnitude of the recent downturn, experts say some of the statistics that are widely used to track the economy are now red herrings—misleading, at best, when it comes to predicting a rebound. Here are three indicators that could lead investors astray. What Housing Glut? Housing inventory measures the supply of unsold homes on the market. Right now it’s high—a 10-month supply of homes, up from the average of about five—and conventional wisdom says the housing market won’t recover until it declines. This time around, however, waiting for “normal” could cost you. In fact, an improving economy might mean more homes on the market, not fewer. Some banks are sitting on foreclosed properties, waiting for a friendlier economic climate before putting them on the market, and many homeowners are essentially doing the same thing. Stephen Kim, senior analyst at Alpine Global Real Estate fund, thinks home-building stocks “will rally while inventory levels are still high.” The Hidden Jobless It seems like a no-brainer: Once more people are working, stocks should rebound. But investors who rely solely on the official unemployment rate—the percentage of workers who are jobless—could be misled. The statistic excludes so-called discouraged workers who have given up looking for a job. And the data doesn’t capture companies that force employees to take pay and benefit cuts or furloughs. “You’d get a better idea just asking people on the street if they’re employed,” scoffs John Williams, founder of economic research firm Shadowstats.com. Strategists put more trust in weekly unemployment-claims data, a different figure that gives a clearer sense of companies’ hiring and firing. Inflated Expectations Many market watchers are hoping for a modest increase in inflation, as a sign that the global economy is starting to crawl out of recession. But investors who watch the so-called core consumer price index (CPI), the most widely used gauge, might miss the first stages of a rally and lose out on run-ups in stocks of energy and raw-materials companies. Core CPI excludes the cost of food and energy, and analysts like Strategas economist Don Rissmiller think energy is where prices may surge first, as billions of stimulus dollars pumped into infrastructure projects stoke demand for metals and fuel. Investors looking for a better indicator than the CPI should watch prices for commodities like copper and oil.

Prairieland Prophet: Jim Schier

IS TOPEKA, KAN., THE NEW OMAHA? NOT YET -- but if its leading portfolio manager, Jim Schier, extends his impressive decadelong performance much longer, the Nebraska city may have to cede its place as the center of the value-investing universe. Mixing quantitative tools with a subjective read on a company's underlying competitive strengths, Schier's $824 million Rydex/SGI Mid Cap Value Fund (ticker: SEVAX) was up 17.29% this year through June 11; that's 7.42 percentage points above its peers, and 11.33 points above the Standard & Poor's 500. That's already helped to claw back a big chunk of Schier's 27% loss in 2008. Nonetheless, he performed about 10 percentage points better than other funds in his category last year -- a reminder that long-term performance is as much about limiting losses in downturns as it is about beating the pack when times are good. Schier's mid-cap value fund has a five-star rating from Morningstar. Its A-class shares carry a 5.75% front load, and a 1.37% expense ratio, and the fund has averaged a 10.49% annual return over the past decade versus its peers' 3.76%. (Yet Schier still has a way to go to match Sage of Omaha Warren Buffett's long-term returns.)

THESE ARE MUDDLED TIMES when it comes to distinguishing between value and growth, the 51-year-old Schier admits. Still, philosophical lines remain. A growth investor wants to believe that the markets are right, Schier says, and value investors like him want to think the others are wrong -- and "find that inefficiency," for profit. An example: Hanover Insurance Group (THG), a holding that Schier has added to this year. What caught Schier's eye when he bought the shares in 2006 was Hanover's move out of life insurance, in order to focus on property and casualty insurance. He also likes Hanover's mix of statistical pricing methods usually seen in bigger insurers with the high-quality-service-oriented nature of smaller, regional insurers. The market inefficiency? Schier thinks high-quality insurers have fallen off the radar screen this year, as investors rushed to participate in the bank-stock rally. "I don't think it's a stretch for this thing to be in the mid-40s," Schier says; Hanover now trades around 37. (For more on Hanover, see our story, "Where Profits Are a Policy.") THG carries a 2009 multiple just above 10. Schier's quantitative work focuses on pretax return on invested capital, and profits relative to debt-adjusted price to book. If a company meets the Schier team's initial valuation threshold, Schier then asks one of his five fundamental analysts, each with a sector specialization, to do a short stretch of further research to strip out "dead wood." If Schier still likes the stock, the analyst reviews it in depth, putting a finer estimate on valuation, downside risks and competitive position. Then Schier decides if it makes the final cut. Another favorite is Computer Sciences (CSC), a business- and technology-service and outsourcing outfit. Schier figures that the company's extensive government contracts, including those with the U.K.'s national-health service, cushion it against the economic downturn and position it well to profit from any health-care overhaul in the U.S. CSC's full-current-year (ending March 2010) earnings per share are seen at $4.18. "It's good at keeping governments happy in very mission-critical services," Schier says, while still being able to benefit from a cyclical upswing in the economy. The stock now trades at about 44; Schier thinks it should be in the mid-50s. He's also bought electric utilities in recent weeks, including Allete (ALE) and NorthWestern Energy (NWE). The two trade at a discount to other utilities based on his valuation metrics. Schier likes their opportunities for building transmission lines to connect wind farms to the interstate grid. Such projects are usually regulated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, which tends to offer a more favorable regulatory environment for investors than do state commissions, he says. Schier's bottom-up style paid huge dividends with retailer Chico's FAS (CHS), which is up by 143% this year. Schier was drawn to the strong brand name, loyal customers and "deep" discount on the shares when he started buying them last autumn, at times for less than $2 per share. "In the downdraft, a lot of guys bailed," he says. It now trades at about 10. Except for Buffett's Omaha, the middle of the plains might not seem a likely hotbed for top-notch value investors. But Schier thinks his location lends perspective. For one thing, there's less chance of getting enamored of any one sector that might be driving growth in a particular region. And Topeka wasn't hit as hard as other regions by the housing bubble; that helped Schier stay focused on intrinsic value. Schier got an undergraduate degree from Notre Dame, in Indiana, and a master's degree in business administration from Washington University in St. Louis in 1982 -- where the late John Bowyer got Schier interested in value investing. Schier worked at Stifel Financial before shifting to the buy side and moving to Kansas in the late '80s. He joined Security Global Investors in 1995, and has managed the Ryder mid-cap value fund since its inception in 1997. He also runs Rydex/SGI Small-Cap Value (SSUAX) and co-manages the Rydex/SGI All-Cap Value (SESAX). Schier leaves to others the alphabet-soup debates over the shape of the eventual recovery (V, U, L or even W). "I don't think I've ever made money off a macro[economic] forecast," he admits. Instead, he looks for stocks that can be steady growers in bad times as well as good. That proclivity was particularly helpful in weathering the 2008 collapse with the likes of utilities, packaging and consumer staples. When pressed, Schier admits that he's in the "U"-shaped-recovery camp, figuring that if the U.S. brings debt levels back to prudent levels, that implies a big hit to gross domestic product. And he does worry about the mountain of supply capital markets will have to digest -- not only from the government, but from financial institutions and private-equity firms. If the velocity of money picks up again, that could lead to inflation and a tricky balancing act for the Federal Reserve. "I'd be shocked if we don't have some re-emergence of bad news," he says. Meanwhile, Schier may work in a place that big-city dwellers call fly-over country -- but he's content to leave to others the view from 30,000 feet.

Keep the Miles: Why Airline Cards Aren't Worth It (Deal of the Day)

That miles-earning card that earned you a free flight to Bermuda on your honeymoon five years ago isn't going to offer you such valuable perks anymore. In fact, it is probably costing you more to earn less. “Airfare cards are great for the sign-up bonuses, but for most travelers, that’s where it ends,” says George Hobica, founder of fare-tracking site AirFareWatchdog.com. At the same time that struggling card issuers have jacked up interest rates and made it more difficult to earn rewards, their partner airlines have introduced tiered redemptions and fees that make those miles less valuable. “It’s a double whammy for consumers,” says Curtis Arnold, founder of card-comparison site CardRatings.com.

Nevertheless, card issuers are aggressively marketing miles cards, primarily because they tend to be incredibly profitable. In the first four months of 2009, 30% of mailed credit-card offers were for miles-based programs, compared with less than 20% last year, according to research by Mintel Comperemedia, a financial services research and consulting firm. And as Delta (DAL) and Northwest prepare to merge this fall, American Express (AXP) (which issues the Delta SkyMiles card) and U.S. Bancorp (USB) (which handled Northwest’s card and now offers the broader FlexPerks Travel Rewards Visa (V) card) have bombarded some one million frequent fliers with materials touting the benefits of each. While it can't hurt to become a frequent flier in an airlines’ free miles program, consumers should probably send those miles-earning credit card offers through the shredder. Here are four reasons why: Annual fees Airline credit cards tend to carry an annual fee, which means frequent fliers must also be big spenders to come out ahead, says Avi Karnani, founder of financial management program Thrive. While these fees have been around for years, issuers may be less willing to waive them in the tight economy. The Continental (CAL) Airlines World MasterCard (MC), for example, carries an annual fee of $85, and earns one mile per $1 spent. One mile is worth about a penny at redemption, so you'll have to spend $8,500 just to offset the fee. Constantly-changing redemption values Odds are good that your miles will be worth less by the time you’re able to redeem them. Both credit-card issuers and airlines can make changes that affect the value of your miles -- and they are, says Arnold. Earlier this year, Citibank (C) changed its system, which offered flights valued at $400 or less for 20,000 points, to one charging 100 points per dollar, meaning that $400 ticket will now cost you twice as much. (For more issuer reward-program tweaks, see our story.) On the airline side of things, Delta changed its reward structure in September so that consumers can get reward tickets on more flights -- but they’ll pay dearly for the privilege. At one point, a round-trip domestic fare would cost you a flat rate of 25,000 miles. Now, there's a new tiered system which offers redemption options at 25,000, 40,000 and 60,000 miles -- and makes it that much more difficult to snag a 25,000 seat. And, in many cases, travelers will have to spend more miles for the higher redemption option to snag a seat on the flight they want. Miles still aren’t easy -- or cheap -- to redeem “Once you’ve got enough, it’s harder to spend the miles,” says Hobica. Travelers almost always have to book 330 days out when airlines first release seats for any hope of snagging a reward seat at the cheapest redemption levels. But now some airlines also charge fees for booking reward travel on a partner airline ($25 on Alaska Airlines), for last-minute redemption ($75 to $100 on United (UAUA)) or for upgrading a seat ($50 to $350 on American (AMR)). Tickets are cheaper through other means Most airlines require at least 25,000 miles for a domestic, round-trip reward ticket, no matter whether you would have paid $200 or $2,000 for the same airfare on your own, says Karnani. Folks trading miles for domestic, economy-class tickets are less likely to come out ahead of road warriors booking international fares or business-class seats. Most travelers will be better served with a cash-back card, whose proceeds can be used for any ticket or any other purchase you want to make. (You’ll also knock out the hassle of attempting to book a reward seat.)

Broker Talk: The Right Amount of Risk? (Broker Talk)

Market volatility is down, Treasury yields are up and the U.S. government is quieting down. Investors should be sloughing off their market fears and taking more risk, brokerage experts say.

Who’s talking: Jeffrey Saut, chief investment strategist, Raymond James

The Gist: The most investors want right now is to make back the money they lost in 2008, break even, and get out of the market. Yes, the roller-coaster ride over the last two years has been exhausting, says Saut, but this is the wrong time to shy away from equities.

Why? Because we’re exiting the recession. If you bought the list of stocks Saut recommended in his March 16 strategy report — Ruth’s Hospitality Group (RUTH), Morton’s (MRT), Carrols (TAST) and O’Charley’s (CHUX)) — and held them until last week, you would have made nearly 150%.

Companies are gearing up to spend money, make hires and build up their inventories, says Saut. More than 100 of the Fortune 500 companies are announcing hiring plans, and corporate layoffs have declined by 55% since their high in January. Corporate profits, he adds, have doubled since the last recession, but the S&P 500 is still where it was during the 2001 recession. He admits that the labor market is still “a mess” but says we shouldn’t ignore the “green shoots” that signal economic recovery. President Obama’s promise of creating 600,000 jobs in the next 100 days should also give the markets a boost. And the bulk of the stimulus funding will hit in 2010, lessening the possibility that the economy will soften again late next year.

Saut also says not to worry about the possibility of Treasury yields dipping. The Fed is more concerned about deflation right now than inflation and for that reason will try to keep interest rates low until at least 2010. He thinks the recent rise in interest rates and the recent dollar decline are both “head fakes” distracting investors from the fact that economic fundamentals are improving.

Emerging markets are already into new bull markets, says Saut, and the U.S. economy may soon be too. Buy equities, he says, and don’t short stocks.

Who’s Talking: Liz Ann Sonders, chief investment strategist, Charles Schwab, and Brad Sorensen, director of market and sector analysis, Schwab Center for Financial Research

The Gist: Granted, it’s no time to “throw caution to the wind” with your investing, say Sonders and Sorensen. The U.S. government deficit is soaring, and it just threw another $30 billion into General Motors, which could put a damper on long-term growth.

But that’s no reason to only stick with the “safest” investments offering miniscule yields, these experts say. Big banks have raised roughly $85 billion over the past month, and government support for financial firms seems to be over. Plus, global growth is improving as China and emerging markets continue to pour stimulus into their economies. Investors are also too concerned about the decline in the value of the dollar, says Sonders. The dollar is still the world’s monetary standard “for the foreseeable future as other currency markets currently lack the liquidity of the dollar.”

Sonders and Sorensen recommend inching into international markets while keeping your portfolio “as diversified as possible.” Emerging markets look especially attractive because of their healthier financial institutions, cheaper currencies and faster economic growth. Avoid the European market, though, as their banks are still highly leveraged and their governments are more resistant to dishing out fiscal stimulus.

The sectors they say will outperform over the next few months are technology, materials and industrials, while defensive sectors like consumer staples, telecommunications and utilities have already had their run.

3 Stock Picks: DFS, CCL, SJM (Market Movers) Discover Rings Up Decent Results

Discover Financial Services (DFS) shares rose over 5% during early trading as the credit-card processor and issuer announced better-than-expected fiscal second-quarter results despite grim consumer conditions. The Chicago-area company reported earnings of 43 cents a share for the quarter ended May 31, a figure buoyed by proceeds from a legal settlement in an antitrust lawsuit with Visa (V) and MasterCard (MA). Credit-card sales volume dropped 4% as consumers cut back on purchases. But delinquencies over 30 days hit 5.08% on managed loans, a mild improvement from the previous quarter. The company is scrambling to cut costs since it isn’t seeing much near-term improvement in the broader consumer spending environment. Chairman and CEO David Nelms said that high unemployment rates continue to have a significant impact on the company’s financial results. But, he added, "we continue to focus on reducing expenses and maintaining a strong capital position as we manage through these challenging times." In a preview note, Suntrust Robinson Humphries analyst John Stilmar wrote Monday the news is less bad rather than truly good. For a company caught in the midst of a consumer spending meltdown and a massive recalibration of personal credit, that will have to do. "With fewer balances migrating into delinquency, and stable later-stage delinquencies, the delinquency performance remains modestly better than our expectations," he wrote Monday. One bright spot: Stilmar says Discover’s "roll rate," the pace at which 30-day delinquencies "roll" to become 60-day and then 90-day or greater delinquencies, showed a 7% improvement, the second-best in the industry.

Bottom Line: Sell

It’s tough to see any growth in this company as long as cardholders are paying with plastic less often. Carnival Beats Expectations Despite the recession, cash-strapped consumers trimming their vacation plans and the swine flu scare, Carnival (CCL), the cruise line firm, still managed to post better-than-expected second-quarter earnings. However, it added that the rest of the year remains uncertain. Shares rose over 8% Thursday morning. The company earned 33 cents for the quarter ended May 31. That tally was down a third from its 49 cents a share profit a year ago, but better than the 28 cents a share analysts were expecting. David Bernstein, Carnival’s chief financial officer, said on a Thursday conference call that reduced fuel consumption gave earnings a five cents a share boost. However, part of that fuel savings was due to the company sending fewer ships to Mexico during the swine flu epidemic. The scare cut revenue about 9.8%. "Given the uncertain times and the flu disruption, I think our operating companies did an excellent job beating our guidance," said Bernstein. That doesn’t mean things will improve amidst the ongoing recession, particularly when currency fluctuation and fuel prices are considered. Carnival said it projects fiscal-year results of $2 to $2.10 a share, down from March guidance of $2.10 to $2.30 a share. For the third quarter, it now expects earnings of $1.15 to $1.19 a share. Street analysts were expecting $1.25 a share.

"As we look forward to the back half of 2009, all of which was essentially booked after the start of the financial crisis,” said Bernstein, “you can expect to see slightly larger yield declines as the back half of the year feels the full brunt of the recession and impact by the seasonal deployments in Alaska and Europe.”

Bottom Line: Hold

Patient investors may see an uptick if consumers start to opt for budget voyages next year. Smucker’s Coffee Line Boosts Earnings Investors pushed up the shares of J.M. Smucker (SJM) over 8% on Thursday after the food manufacturer posted strong earnings as peanut butter and jelly sandwiches increased their presence on recessionary household menus. The Orrville, Ohio, owner of the Smucker's, Jif, Crisco and Folgers brands reported earnings of 80 cents a share, up from 69 cents a year ago. The Street, on average, anticipated profits of 69 cents a share. Chairman and co-CEO Tim Smucker said the profits from newly acquired Folgers accounted for about two-thirds of the outperformance. People are, in fact, having a second cup, usually in their own kitchens.

"While this magnitude of gain may be difficult to repeat, this quarter's result in coffee... provides evidence that our ownership of Folgers will provide significant opportunities," he said. "We believe that the continued shift to at-home consumption contributed to our strong performance and is a trend we are well prepared for and think will continue."

Bottom Line: Buy

These brands are strong with consumers and are run by a company that's skillfully brewed up a sound product mix.

8 Father's Day Gifts for Financially-Savvy Dads (Deal of the Day)

Forget the old Father's Day standby. Your dad already has plenty of ties. And even though what he really wants is probably something along the lines of the BMW 650i Coupe (price tag: $78,000), your budget may be a little limited. One gift that your father may appreciate – perhaps not as much as a Beemer, but probably more than a tie – is a gift that caters to, or bolsters, his financial prowess.

See 8 financially-savvy gifts for dad

Whether he’s a casual stock market observer or considers himself the next Warren Buffett, here are eight gifts that could help him better manage his money – and, at the very least, keep him entertained. StockCast Wireless Stock Market Tracker by Brookstone

Price: $49.99

Even if your father's investments are restricted to his fantasy portfolio, this device will let him keep tabs on the market while at work (without turning on CNBC). Made by Brookstone, this wireless desktop gadget updates the numbers of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq Composite and S&P 500 every 15 minutes. And for a monthly fee, Dad can create and track a customized portfolio. The add-on service costs either $6.95 a month or $19.95 every three months. (Brookstone gives customers three free months to try the service.) A session with a financial advisor

Price: $150-$400 per hour After the tumultuous year the stock market has had, chances are Dad has plenty of questions about rebalancing his portfolio, refinancing the mortgage or how to revive his beaten-down 401(k). Expect a one-hour session with a planner to set you back anywhere from $150 to $400, with the rate depending on the planner’s background and where they're located, says Rick Kahler, president of Kahler Financial Group in Rapid City, S.D. To help you find an accredited advisor within driving distance of your father's home, check web sites that list fee-only planners by zip code, including the National Association of Personal Finance Advisors (NAPFA.org) and the Garrett Planning Network. Kindle DX by Amazon.com, with Wall Street Journal subscription

Kindle: $489; download of monthly Journal subscription: $14.99 At nearly $500 this gift may be a little pricey, but just think how nice it would be if Dad didn't have to recycle all those financial newspapers and magazines. With a Kindle, he can read almost all of them – plus thousands of books. Spend a little extra ($14.99 a month) to get Dad a subscription to The Wall Street Journal that will automatically be "delivered" to the device each day. (SmartMoney is part owned by Dow Jones, which also owns The Wall Street Journal.)
If he already has a Kindle, think: upgrade. The new Kindle DX is just over one-third of an inch thick, about the width of a typical magazine, making it easy to carry on the morning commute. And at 9.7 inches, the screen is bigger than the last iteration, so it’s easier on the eyes. It also sports a built-in PDF reader and more memory – it stores 2,000 more books than the previous model. Note: The new Kindle is set for a June 22 release, the day after Father’s Day. If you don’t think Dad needs those extras or the price tag is too steep, you can buy an older version, for $359. Ambient Orb by Ambient Devices

Price: $99.99

The Ambient Orb is like a mood ring for the stock market. The sphere changes colors to mirror the direction of the stock market: green for gains, red for losses and yellow when the market is flat. It’s preset to track the Dow Jones Industrial Average, and similar to the Stock Market Tracker, you also have the option to track a personal portfolio for $6.95 a month. Books

Price: From $10 to $18 each Add to your Dad's summer reading list by giving him some well-loved business titles – both old and new. A few suggestions: If your father loved Michael Lewis's “Liar's Poker” or “Moneyball," he'll probably like the author's latest, “Home Game: An Accidental Guide to Fatherhood." Adapted from a series of essays he wrote for Slate.com, Lewis offers his (sometimes ugly) experiences of being a father to his three kids. “The Ultimate Depression Survival Guide” by New York Times best-selling author Martin D. Weiss is a comprehensive investing and personal finance guide. Weiss, president of investment information firm Weiss Research, offers strategies for coping with the credit crisis and housing bust, and explains to readers just how safe their investments, insurance policies and bank accounts really are. Weiss also gives specific investment recommendations, including his picks for ETFs and Treasury money-market funds. In “Discover Your Inner Economist,” George Mason University economics professor Tyler Cowen instructs readers on how to use economic reasoning to improve everyday experiences, offering strategies on everything from eating better meals to getting your kids to do chores. Check out more SmartMoney book picks here and here. HP 12C Financial Calculator by Hewlett-Packard

Price: $79.99

For sophisticated investors who aren’t afraid of complicated equations or financial terms, H-P's financial calculator might be right up their alley. The device, which sits on the desks of many financial pros, comes with more than 130 built-in functions such as loan amortization and the time value of money of a retirement fund. “It’s a very, very powerful tool – as long as you know how to use it,” says Kevin Brosious, a certified financial planner and CPA at Wealth Management, Inc. in Allentown, Pa. For instance, he says, you can use it to calculate yields and interest rates on bonds or your monthly mortgage payments and payoff schedule. Just make sure Dad reads the user's manual. Movie marathon

Price: $30.47 for all three DVDs Is Dad a movie buff? The Wall Street genre can be as gripping as any Will Smith action flick. Start with “Wall Street,” the 1987 story of a young stockbroker desperate to succeed and the ruthless corporate raider whom he venerates ($11.49 on Amazon). For a look back at the sometimes questionable dealings of the 1980s get “Barbarians at the Gate” ($6.99 on Amazon). This 1993 film based on the book by Bryan Burrough and John Helyar about the leveraged buyout of RJR Nabisco. James Garner plays CEO F. Ross Johnson, who decides to take his company private after getting word of the probable market failure of Nabisco’s smokeless cigarette. And of course, you can't forget the movie about the biggest business scandal in American history: “Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room,” 2006 ($11.99). The documentary chronicles the stunning 2001 collapse of energy firm Enron. Let’s just hope Dad didn't have any Enron stock in his portfolio. Investing/personal finance apps

Price for downloads: $4.99 to $12.95 each For the gadget geek dad hooked on his iPhone or BlackBerry, a few new apps can help him manage his money while he’s on the go.

iXpenseIt ($4.99) by FYI Mobileware is the most popular (paid) app in the finance category this week in Apple’s iTunes store. Available for the iPhone, this app tracks daily expenses, stores digital photo receipts and can manage the family’s budget. It also tracks recurring expenses, like utility bills, rent and mortgage payments. For road warriors, Gas Cubby ($10) by AppCubby tracks gas mileage and vehicle maintenance. The app lets you track multiple vehicles, export the data to a spreadsheet and will even remind Dad to change his oil. If Dad has a BlackBerry, Mobile Checkbook ($12.95) by Mobatech will let him record transactions, check account balances and compare deposits and withdrawals. He won’t have to balance his checkbook or keep track of his receipts. Check out more personal finance applications here, including an app with Intuit’s Quicken and a budgeting app from Mint.com.

How the Dow and Dollar Dance (Tradecraft)

With so many investors keeping tabs on the dollar, many have no doubt often noticed an uncanny relationship the greenback is now showing with stocks. In effect, when the dollar rallies, stocks lately have a tendency to fall, and when the dollar falls, stocks -- and most other “risk” assets -- tend to rise.

The raw data confirms the hypothesis. From Aug. 1, 2007, to Dec. 31, 2008, the Dollar Index and US Equity Total Return Index showed a negative correlation of -0.65%. Since the beginning of 2009, that relationship has become even more pronounced, now at -0.86%, meaning that betting on the dollar, through an ETF like PowerShares DB U.S. Dollar Index Bullish (UUP), can potentially help hedge a stock portfolio even more than gold or foreign stocks.

Dollar Index and U.S. Equity Total Return Negatively Correlated in 2009

Options on Warren Getting a piece of Berkshire Hathaway has always been a high-price ticket. Even back in 1984, the class-A shares of Buffett’s company, which have never been split, traded for $1,000 each. In 1995, Buffett created the class B shares, valued at 1/30 of the A shares, giving smaller-capitalized investors an opportunity to own a piece of Buffett.

Baby Berkshire Blues

Berkshire Hathaway B (BRK.B)—1 year

Now the CBOE has lowered the bar even further by listing options on Berkshire Hathaway B shares (BRK.B), giving speculators and investors another tool to get (or hedge) their exposure to Buffett’s empire.

Those who want to take a long position in Berkshire will no longer need to pony up even the $2,800 at which the B shares currently trade. Out of the money calls, initially listed with strike prices of $2,900, $3,000 and $3,100, will trade at a fraction of that amount. Those who already own “Baby Berkshire” shares will, in turn, be able to sell those calls, providing a modest income stream to a stock that has only paid one dividend in its history, way back in 1967.

Buffett famously has called derivatives “financial weapons of mass destruction,” even though his own portfolio was spanked as a result of put contracts he wrote on world stock indexes just before the market began its historic 2008 decline. In reality, options are simply another way for expressing your view on a particular security. Bull or bear, that opportunity benefits all. How to Hedge Your Health Care Regardless what the administration’s plan looks like, there’s no doubt Washington is poised to become even more integral into how health care is created, delivered and paid for in this country. My expectation is that the bigger a role government plays in health care, the more expensive — and limited — health care will become. That’s not total speculation on my part. As we wrote last year, procedures like Lasik laser eye surgery not covered by the government safety net have dropped in price and improved in quality in a short period of time as a result of a true competitive marketplace. Government efforts will destroy whatever remnants of a free market in health care the country has.

A not-yet-trading security proposed by Macroshares could help to hedge rising health-care costs. MacroShares Medical Inflation Up and MacroShares Medical Inflation Down, currently in registration with the SEC, aim to reflect values for the medical care component of the Consumer Price Index, reflecting inflation in the cost of medical goods and services. This is a wide category, encompassing everything from prescription and over-the-counter drugs, medical-care services and hospitals to health insurance.

Macroshares have been relativity rocky trades in recent years, with some arbitrage and pricing issues making the products ultimately less than ideal. The initial public offering for MacroMarkets Housing Shares, which we wrote about earlier this spring has been scuttled as the company installs a designated market-maker to provide liquidity.

Still, this idea of a security to specifically hedge medical inflation is so revolutionary and unique. One can’t help but hope the SEC permits a speedy launch. By the time the administration “fixes” the system, it will likely already be too late.

5 Stocks Wall Street Is Right to Love (Screens)

While researching a stock, you learn that eight Wall Street analysts publish opinions on it. Five of them recommend a purchase and three say hold. Is that good? Maybe. A bit more information will make those recommendations more telling. Finance researchers have devoted heaps of time over the past decade to judging the worth of analyst advice. That was motivated in part by scandal. The Internet stock bubble of the 1990s raised suspicions that large investment banks had published chipper research on companies to better their chances of selling financial services on the side. In April 2003, about three years after the bubble popped, 10 of America’s largest investment firms agreed to pay more than $1.3 billion to settle the matter with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Here’s what studies have turned up so far: Buy recommendations are far more common then sells, especially in the U.S. Sell recommendations seem to hold more predictive power. One study showed that stocks with the most buys outperformed those with the most sells, but later studies found that some hidden factors explain the results better than the recommendations. Analysts tend to favor glamorous stocks -- those with rising share prices and fast-growing earnings -- just like most investors. Stocks that demonstrate that kind of momentum are more likely than not to outperform over the following year or so -- with or without analysts’ recommendations. That suggests that the level of analysts’ recommendations isn’t that useful as a predictor. (Also, it means we should pay careful attention to the study periods when reviewing analyst performance. Glamour stocks tend to outperform in bull markets, so analysts can be expected to look good then, too.) One finding stands out as more useful, though. Upgrades tend to be followed by market-beating stock performance. In other words, what matters about the stock in my opening example isn’t that it has five buy recommendations, but whether any of them were recently changed from holds or sells. Most likely, that has to do with freshness. Some analysts revisit their recommendations only every six months or so. Standing recommendations might reflect stale opinions. Recent upgrades reflect new thinking. Of course, investors shouldn’t blindly follow analysts without doing their own research. The five stocks below have attracted recommendation upgrades in recent weeks and have modest valuations, good dividends and strong balance sheets.

Stocks Higher as Traders Cheer Data (Market Update) News at a Glance

Stocks Rise: Data nudges traders after lackluster start. On the Hill: Geithner testifies before Senate. China Stimulated: World Bank lifts growth outlook. Under New Management: Delphi lenders may acquire firm.

The Lowdown Signs that the economy may be improving lifted spirits on Wall Street. Stocks were higher Thursday, as traders welcomed some surprisingly rosy economic data. The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 58 points to 8555, ending a 3-day slide. The Nasdaq was flat at 1807, and the S&P 500 rose 7 to 918. In Washington, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner defended the White House's proposal for a regulatory overhaul of the financial system in Congress. Geithner testified before the Senate on the plan, which is expected to pass the legislature quickly despite some concerns from within the Democratic party. The economy looked a bit brighter after two reports came in better than consensus estimates. The Leading Index rose 1.2% last month, a bit better than economists had predicted. The diffusion index of current business activity of the Philadelphia Federal Reserve's Business Outlook Survey rose to -2.2, about 15 points higher than expected. The exception was the jobs market, which looked a bit worse after a Labor report showed an unexpectedly high number of people filed for unemployment insurance last week. In world markets, Asia finished lower, despite a report from the World Bank that China's economic stimulus is having a tangible effect on near-term growth. Hong Kong's Hang Seng finished down 1.7%, while Japan's Nikkei dropped 1.4%. In Europe, the U.K.'s FTSE ended up 0.1%. On the Nymex, commodities were a mixed bag, but oil remained perked up in the afternoon. Crude traded up 19 cents at $71.22 a barrel. Corporate News

The New York Stock Exchange (NYX) has agreed to commit $50 million to back a new joint venture with Depository Trust Cleaning that will serve as a clearning house for fixed income derivatives, Reuters reported. Both firms have agreed on the venture, which is expected to launch during the second quarter of next year. Delphi, the troubled auto parts maker, may be on the verge of an "Under New Management" sign. Delphi's lenders are considering making an offer for the company, The New York Post reported.

American International Group (AIG) has selected Deutche Bank (DB) and Morgan Stanley (MS) to manage the $4 billion initial public offering of the firm's American International Assurance.

The Economy

Initial jobless claims rose to 608,000 last week, up rom a revised 605,000 in the prior week, the Labor Department. Economists had predicted the number people seeking unemployment benefits for the first time would rise to 602,000. REPORT

The Leading Index rose 1.2% in May, up from a revised 1.1% increase in April, the Conference Board said. Economists had expected a 1.0% increase. REPORT

The Philadephia Federal Reserve's diffusion index of current business activity rose to -2.2 in June, up from -22.6 in May. For June, economists had predicted a reading of -17.0. REPORT

Washington Tackles Target-Date Reform (On the Street)

While the rest of the world focuses on the Obama administration’s sweeping regulatory reform package, another corner of Washington is tackling a $489 billion problem of its own: target-date funds. The premixed fund-of-funds, which are supposed to get more conservative as investors near retirement, have become one of the most popular retirement investments of the last decade; they also suffered severe losses during the crash, even for investors hoping to retire in a year or two. Now, at the request of Sen. Herb Kohl (D., Wis.), the Department of Labor and the Securities and Exchange Commission will convene an all-day hearing to discuss what, if anything, should be done about the funds — and which regulatory agency is ultimately in charge.

In fact, by holding the hearing jointly, the agencies are acknowledging that target-date funds have become messy for the regulators. The SEC regulates mutual fund companies and mutual funds, but the DOL is in charge of retirement plans. When the Pension Protection Act allowed employers to automatically enroll employees in the retirement plan as long as they picked an investment for them, too, the DOL blessed target-date funds as an acceptable default option. Then funds for workers hoping to retire in 2010 lost as much as 40% in 2008; the DOL is now, apparently, rethinking the wisdom of conferring special status on target-date funds.

The DOL has plenty of options, investor advocates say, if it’s serious about protecting participants. It could impose restrictions on what a target-date fund is — that is, if a 2010 fund wants to qualify as an acceptable default, it must adhere to “a generally accepted allocation,” suggested Mercer Bullard, president of Fund Democracy, a shareholder advocacy group. He suggested the DOL create an advisory board that would establish and review that generally acceptable standard. “But everyone knows that 75% equities is not generally acceptable for someone who is 65,” he said. “Is it acceptable for some people? Yes. But generally? No. And that should be the threshold when employers are making choices for their employees.”

But the fund industry says that disclosure and education should be enough; then it’s up to the employer to decide what’s appropriate. The stakes are high: Assets in target-date funds in 401(k) plans have more than doubled since 2005, even after 2008’s losses. Any restriction on which target-date funds could qualify would also restrict that flow of cash. Managers, of course, take the free-market high road. “Any approach that would narrow the flexibility of managers might hamper our ability to manage lifecycle funds for our clients,” said Jeff Coons, the co-director of research at Manning and Napier, which launched retail target-date funds last year.

Of course, it’s not all up to the DOL. The SEC could invoke its “misleading names” rule, which requires funds to invest in a way that’s consistent with their names — a large-cap growth fund must, for the most part, buy large-company stocks. Mary Schapiro, the head of the agency, has indicated that her organization would consider it (a reversal of earlier statements), but it would be a stretch: The rule has never applied to asset allocation in the past.

No decisions will be made at Thursday’s hearing, and skeptics worry that any momentum for reform will be overshadowed by the Obama announcement. Even so, over more than eight hours, 33 representatives of fund managers, financial planners, industry associations and investor advocates will offer their opinions on everything from asset allocation to the 401(k) plan marketplace. As to the question of which agency will ultimately take the reins, the early money is on the DOL. Not only has the SEC been notoriously reluctant to constrain fund managers, but the hearings are in the DOL’s house.

ETF Investors Head to Safe Harbors (Daily ETF Wrap-Up) Market Wrap-Up Despite news of the biggest banking regulatory overhaul since the New Deal, stocks stayed flat Wednesday.

5 Safe Stocks to Swap Into (Screens)

Risk, you might have heard, is directly related to stock returns. That is, you’re not supposed to be able to achieve greater stock returns without taking on more risk. Be skeptical. The theory comes from a set of elegant mathematics first published in the Journal of Finance in 1952, then mostly ignored for a decade, then transformed in the early 1960s through more lovely math into a stock prediction machine called the Capital Asset Pricing Model. The formulas gave rise to the index mutual fund industry in the 1970s and earned two key contributors Nobel Prizes in economics in 1990. One of the upshots of the math is that if you know something called “beta” for a stock, you can calculate the stock’s expected return. So what’s this remarkable beta? In theory it’s a measure of risk. In practice, risk is a tricky thing to measure, so beta is often based on a stock’s past trading volatility relative to other stocks. A stock that moved frantically in the past has a high beta today, which means it’s supposed to be risky, which means it’s supposed to earn high returns in the future. But no one wants the extra risk, so we’re all better off forgetting about stock picking and buying index mutual funds. Indexing is probably the best thing to come out of the math. Those Vanguard funds are blessedly cheap, and since over long time periods mediocre stocks are better than no stocks, the funds are a good deal for investors who aren’t keen on stock-picking, which is most of them. For stock pickers, the formulas don’t quite deliver as promised. Past volatility isn’t terribly accurate for predicting future returns. Other clues, when added to volatility, result in more accurate predictions. Among these are a company’s size, or what you’d pay to own all of its shares today, and its price/book value, which compares the purchase price to what accountants say the assets are worth. All else held equal, small companies and cheap companies tend to produce better stock returns. Mathematicians say this is because these clues are actually alternative measures of risk in disguise. That is, small companies are riskier than big ones, and what is cheapness if not a sign of flaws, and thus, risk? So the theorists worked these new clues into the pricing model to turn that volatility-based beta into a “three-factor” beta, but more good clues like recent share price momentum turned up soon after. They added those in, too. I’ve lost track whether we’re up to five or six factors, but the process has become a bit circular. Every time researchers find a clue that reliably predicts good stock returns, other researchers redefine that clue as part of a new measure of risk. Do that for long enough and risk really will be inseparable from return, because the two will be different labels for the same things. That’s a long lead-in to the subject of which stocks investors should swap into now if they feel the market has gotten expensive, and they suddenly care more about safety than returns. Risk, I’m convinced, isn’t something to be throttled back on at the expense of returns. The best way to reduce risk is to be greedy for return. That doesn’t mean placing wild bets.

7 Ways to Save on Gas (Deal of the Day)

That budget road trip you planned for the family this summer is starting to look a lot more expensive now that gas prices are on the rise. Some of the spike is seasonal. Increased demand -- from all of those other families hitting the road -- tends to lift gas prices each summer, says Paul Hess, information analyst at the Energy Information Administration (EIA). Oil prices have also been creeping higher in recent weeks as optimism grows on Wall Street that demand for crude will rise worldwide once the global economy stabilizes, says Tom Kloza, chief information analyst at Oil Price Information Service, which monitors oil prices in North America. And further boosting prices at the pump is an Environmental Protection Agency requirement to add a fuel blend to gasoline in certain regions during the summer months that reduces ozone damage. This additive alone can add another five to 10 cents to the price per gallon, says Kloza. As a result, regular unleaded gas costs $2.67 a gallon, up 16% from $2.30 a month ago, according to AAA’s Fuel Gauge Report. According to the EIA, gas prices won’t begin declining significantly until fall. In the meantime, drivers can lessen the pain at the pump by taking some inexpensive and easy steps.
Here are seven ways to save on gas this summer. Shop around Sure, it’s convenient to visit the gas station closest to home, but it may not be the best place to fill up. To find the cheapest gas prices, compare prices at stations near your home or along your commute. Price-comparison web sites like GasBuddy.com and BillShrink.com let you plug in your daily destinations to find the most affordable gas stations on those roads. The price difference per gallon can be up to 50 cents, says Samir Kothari, co-founder of BillShrink.com. Pay Cash Last summer, gas stations rolled out higher prices for consumers who paid with credit or debit cards (the idea was to pass along the merchant fees associated with such transactions). Many gas stations are still at it, which means those who pay in cash can often save. ARCO (a subsidiary of BP (BP)) stations, located in California, Washington, Oregon, Arizona and Nevada, for example, only accept cash and charge between five and 10 cents per gallon less than competing stations. (ARCO recently introduced a debit MasterCard which consumers can use to purchase gas at no extra charge. Other debit cards are accepted at these stations, but there’s a 45-cent fee.) Cash discounts are popular in California, Connecticut, Florida, Michigan, New Jersey and New York, according to GasBuddy.com. (Discounts for cash-paying customers are legal in every state, as long as the gas station makes it clear that prices are different when you pay in cash vs. credit or debit, says Jason Toews, cofounder of GasBuddy.com.) Fill up at the warehouse club In addition to frozen food, toiletries and appliances, Costco (COST), BJ’s and Sam’s Club sell discounted gas at some of their locations. “It depends on local market conditions but usually they sell it cheaply enough so that they’re beating out the competition,” says Toews. For example, at a BJ’s location in York, Pa., regular unleaded gas is selling for $2.59 a gallon. Local competitors there sell gas for $2.61 to $2.65 a gallon, according to GasBuddy.com. Keep your car in good shape Routine maintenance on your car’s tires and engine can increase its fuel efficiency (and even exptend its life). Plus, most of the things you need to do to maintain your car's health don’t even require pricey visits to the mechanic. Just keeping your tires properly inflated can help save you cash. Underinflated tires require more energy to roll and decrease a car’s fuel efficiency, says Kothari. Driving with properly-inflated tires can improve fuel economy by 3% over a year, saving 20 gallons of gasoline and up to $45 annually, according to the Alliance to Save Energy. Check your car owner's manual to find out what the proper air pressure. Also, be sure to regularly change your air filter. Clogged air filters can damage your engine and decrease fuel efficiency. A new air filter will improve gas mileage by 10%, according to the Department of Energy (DOE). Even better: Air filters are fairly cheap, ranging in price from $20 to $60. Also, stick to the motor oil that’s recommended by your car's manufacturer, and buy one that states “energy-conserving” on the label, says Kateri Callahan, president of the Alliance to Save Energy. This can increase fuel efficiency by up to 2%, according to the Alliance to Save Energy. Avoid road rage Aggressive driving isn’t just dangerous. It also wastes a lot of fuel. Consumers pay an extra 24 cents per gallon for every five miles per hour (mph) over 60 mph they drive, according to the Alliance to Save Energy. Rapid acceleration, hard braking and speeding can lower a car’s gas mileage by 33% on the highway and 5% in the city, according to the Department of Energy (DOE). Clean out the clutter Golf clubs, bowling balls or that bag of salt from last winter -- any unnecessary equipment or baggage in a car can decrease its fuel efficiency. According to the DOE, gas mileage decreases by up to 2% for every 100 pounds. Another helpful tip: On your next road trip, try to pack everything inside the car rather than piling it on the roof. Stashing stuff on top of the car increases drag and decreases fuel economy by 5% or more, according to the DOE. Limit A/C use Whenever possible try to keep the air conditioner at the lowest level. Having it maxed out can reduce your fuel efficiency by up to 25% compared to having the A/C turned off, according to the Alliance to Save Energy.

BloggingStocks BloggingStocks http://www.bloggingstocks.com рекомендовать друзьям >> Don't look to high yield stocks for high returns Filed under: Johnson and Johnson (JNJ), JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Procter and Gamble (PG)Stocks are up this year but not everyone is profiting. One reason is that many investors, stung by the market collapse, have been looking for safety by investing in dividend paying stocks. But Richard Moroney, editor of Dow Theory Forecasts, says that investing for yield is a flawed strategy.
Moroney, a chartered financial analyst, points out that while the S&P 1500 Index is up about 16% so far this year, investors in high-yielding stocks (with yields of 4% or more) have a year-to-date return of just 4%. And he says that stocks that do not pay dividends are up an average of 29%.
We spoke with Richard Moroney to find out why this is the case -- and what income investors should do.Continue reading Don't look to high yield stocks for high returnsDon't look to high yield stocks for high returns originally appeared on BloggingStocks on Thu, 18 Jun 2009 17:30:00 EST.

Under the radar: Declining continuing claims are a 'green shoot,' not a Sequoia Filed under: Good news, Employees, Economic dataUnder the radar: Some trends are obvious enough and visible to all investors. Others are more-subtle, but are just as potent, and these often slip 'under the radar.'

Case in point: U.S. continuing claims for unemployment. They fell by 148,000 to 6.69 million, the U.S. Labor Department announced Thursday. If the downtrend in 'CCs' is sustained, that would represent another 'green shoot,' -- or sign that the U.S. recession is bottoming.Continue reading Under the radar: Declining continuing claims are a 'green shoot,' not a SequoiaUnder the radar: Declining continuing claims are a 'green shoot,' not a Sequoia originally appeared on BloggingStocks on Thu, 18 Jun 2009 17:00:00 EST.

Liquidity and capitalization concerns have been reduced as a result of Lincoln's recent 40-million-share, $15 per share offering.

Closing Bell: A win that felt too quiet (BRK-A, BAC, CCL, SNDK, SLM, WLP) Filed under: Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A), Bank of America (BAC), Carnival Corp (CCL), SLM Corp (SLM), SanDisk Corp (SNDK)Today was one of those low news flow days where you never had any real solid feel for where the market would close until the very end of the session. We have seen too many rallies dashed by closing imbalances at the end of the day when there was thin volume.

Some Philly Fed data helped hold the market, and that was on the heels of the largest drop in continuing jobless claims since 2001. Some of the agriculture stocks staged a small comeback after yesterday's huge losses.

Here were the unofficial closing bell levels:

Dow 8,554.77 +57.59 (0.68%)
S&P 500 918.34 +7.63 (0.84%)
Nasdaq 1,807.72 -0.34 (-0.02%)

Afternoon trading playbook Filed under: MasterCard Inc'A' (MA), CA Inc (CA), Stocks to Buy, NASDAQThis post was written by Minyanville contributor Quint Tatro

While the Philly Fed Numbers's are just about unbelievable, in the real sense of the word, it has been enough to halt the slide at least for now. Regardless of the back and forth, I continue to be sitting on my hands watching as the market discourages those trying to find a shorter term edge. I stand firmly planted in the land of the Swiss, with a thesis that before the next swing tradeable move, Mr. Market will do a great job in depleting as much emotional capital as he can. My one current short in the FlexFolio, Mastercard (NYSE:MA)still looks good and with a stop above 175 still presents some decent risk reward.

Going into the afternoon, I am keeping my eye on CA Incorporated NASDAQ:CA)and FLIR Systems (NASDAQ:FLIR) with alerts to enter short on a break of the day low. If they trigger, my stops will be the day high.

Enjoy the break, don't get caught up in the ticks and keep the emotional capital at highs. We're going to need it soon.Afternoon trading playbook originally appeared on BloggingStocks on Thu, 18 Jun 2009 15:40:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments

Cloud computing: Advantages and disadvantage Filed under: Industry, Google (GOOG), Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon.com (AMZN), Next big thing, AT and T (T), TechnologyCloud computing is a type of on-demand hosting services on the internet. Not only a necessity for mainstream e-commerce sites, it also increases efficiency, is scalable, and lowers expenses. The monetary savings may be misleading to consumers and businesses who do not fully understand the potential risks involved. With a pay-as-you-go type structure, users are only charged for the amount of traffic, bandwidth, and memory used. Online businesses become more efficient by only utilizing the storage and space needed, while also being assured capacity for any usage increases. The buzz has been building for years, so cloud computing has attracted a diverse customer base, ranging from popular social networks such as Twitter and Facebook, to educational websites of Arizona State and Northwestern University.Continue reading Cloud computing: Advantages and disadvantageCloud computing: Advantages and disadvantage originally appeared on BloggingStocks on Thu, 18 Jun 2009 15:20:00 EST.

Bonds drop as the Philly Fed index rises Filed under: Market matters, Economic dataWhat is the Philadelphia Federal Reserve index? First we should say that the Philly Fed Index, as it is called, measures business activity for the Mid-Atlantic region. During the recent financial crisis, the index has been solidly in the minus column with a reading of -22.6 in May and a median forecast of -17.0. Minus readings indicate a contraction in business activity, while plus readings indicate that business activity is picking up. Surprise! The most recent reading came in at -2.2. While this is still a minus reading, its a big jump from the consensus reading of the median -17.0. This means that, while business activity is still weak, it is picking up at a more rapid pace than analysts had expected.Continue reading Bonds drop as the Philly Fed index risesBonds drop as the Philly Fed index rises originally appeared on BloggingStocks on Thu, 18 Jun 2009 15:00:00 EST.

Bank of America accused of shelling out big bonuses to bankers Filed under: Bank of America (BAC), Options, DJIA, Financial CrisisA report today in The New York Post reveals that bailed-out Bank of America (NYSE: BAC) is still doling out millions in bonuses to attract and retain top banking talent. Bank of America is catching heat over the bonus payouts, since it hasn't yet received federal clearance to repay its $45 billion in TARP loans. Bank of America allegedly shelled out $15 million over two years to keep Fares Noujaim, an alumnus of both Bear Stearns and Merrill Lynch, who now serves as the company's vice chairman of investment banking. Harry McMahon is named as another banker who's been enticed to stay with handsome bonuses.Continue reading Bank of America accused of shelling out big bonuses to bankersBank of America accused of shelling out big bonuses to bankers originally appeared on BloggingStocks on Thu, 18 Jun 2009 14:30:00 EST.

Banks putting pressure on UK retail sales Filed under: International markets, Industry, Economic data, RecessionRetail sales took an unexpected downward turn in May in the United Kingdom -- for first time in three months. Cautious banks appear to be the problem, as their rationing of credit is impeding broader economic recovery. Retail sales fell 0.6% from the previous month, while economists had predicted a 0.3% change in the other direction.
Year-over-year, retail sales were off 1.6%. Sales for the year are down 1.1%, the greatest decline since score-keeping began in 1988. Of course, there's plenty of fodder for rationalizing the results. The annual change was affected by an "unusually large" retail sales estimate for May 2008. Clothing, textile, and footwear retailers and department stores led the plunge, with nonfood store sales off 1.4%, compared to a 0.3% increase in food retail sales.Continue reading Banks putting pressure on UK retail salesBanks putting pressure on UK retail sales originally appeared on BloggingStocks on Thu, 18 Jun 2009 14:10:00 EST.

Discover Financial Services beats in Q2 -- buy the stock? Filed under: Earnings reports, American Express (AXP), MasterCard Inc'A' (MA), Visa Inc. (V)Discover Financial Services (NYSE: DFS), a credit-card company that competes with Visa (NYSE: V), MasterCard (NYSE: MA), and American Express (NYSE: AXP), reported earnings for the second quarter. According to this news summary, Discover beat expectations by posting a loss of $0.18 per share. The market thought that the loss would be as high as $0.29 per share.
If you read the actual press release, you'll see that Discover, on a reported basis, made $0.43 per share. However, we must remember that this profit included an antitrust settlement sourced to Visa and MasterCard. So, once you get rid of that money, you come up with a loss for the quarter.

News Corp.'s MySpace has cooled its heels, begins layoffs Filed under: Competitive strategy, News Corp'B' (NWS)When News Corp. (NASDAQ: NWS) bought MySpace.com for over $500 million back in 2005, some said it was the way Rupert Murdoch would charge into the digital media audience business in a big way. While that was true at the time, the digital world and its audience can become fickle and change rapidly as new web-based properties develop. It's pretty obvious by now that Facebook has leaped past MySpace and is "the place" to be when it comes to social networking interaction (although Twitter is garnering all the buzz presently). Why Did MySpace lose its way? MySpace evolved to become a portal, offering music downloads and other goodies, while Facebook kept its social networking status as a place where friends and associates could virtually connect. And there you have it -- MySpace didn't evolve as trends were created and rapidly changed.Continue reading News Corp.'s MySpace has cooled its heels, begins layoffsNews Corp.'s MySpace has cooled its heels, begins layoffs originally appeared on BloggingStocks on Thu, 18 Jun 2009 12:30:00 EST.

Weekly initial jobless claims rise to 608,000 Filed under: Employees, Economic dataIs the unemployment picture getting any better? The truth is that's its hard to tell. The Labor Department said that initial claims for state unemployment insurance rose 3,000 to 608,000. The expected number was 600,000. This is especially disturbing since this is the time of year when most hiring in done, mainly in the construction trades. However, there is some good news. Continued claims for unemployment (those persons already on the rolls) fell by 148,000 to 6.69 million. This was the lowest level since May 9, as well as the largest one-week drop since November 2001. This indicates that persons already on the rolls are finding work, and that's good news.Continue reading Weekly initial jobless claims rise to 608,000Weekly initial jobless claims rise to 608,000 originally appeared on BloggingStocks on Thu, 18 Jun 2009 12:00:00 EST.

The brokerage stated that it would use any current weakness as an opportunity to build positions. If, like me, you are questioning Goldman's strategy, the firm explained, "Despite the significant rally in auto shares since the February lows, we think we are still in the middle phase of a cyclical rebound in the auto sector."

In its note to clients, Goldman Sachs predicted, "improved affordability, improving confidence and significant pent-up demand as likely to offset the impact from gas prices and deliver significantly more upside in the space as auto sales gain momentum."

The yield on the 5 year note soared 15 basis points to 2.83 percent. Someone shot the 7 year note from a cannon as its yield climbed 16 basis points to 3.49 percent.

How ETF Investors Fare Felix Salmon submits: John Bogle’s mutual fund vs. ETF analysis has now appeared, and it seems I was right: Bogle makes no attempt whatsoever to distinguish between buy-and-hold ETF investors, on the one hand, and ETF noise traders, on the other. (Or, to put it another way, he makes no attempt to restrict the ETF investors he’s looking at to those who would otherwise buy mutual funds.) That said, Bogle’s analysis is pretty interesting — especially when he says that the average investor in Vanguard’s S&P 500 mutual fund actually outperforms the fund itself by 2.8 percentage points. Is that a result of dollar cost averaging, do you think?Complete Story »

Another Potash Production Cut - Fertilizer Names Get Composted Trader Mark submits:We are back to the world of thesis versus reality. It's a world we've been living in since I started this blog - people front running a recovery that constantly is out of reach; it's been Groundhog Day (the movie) repeatedly. In the thesis world speculators drive stocks up on the basis of what they believe will happen in the future, while ignoring the facts on the ground - even things the CEOs themselves say. Because they know better as forecasters of the future. In the reality world, companies report... well, reality. I won't bother you with the FedEx (FDX) report this morning which is a lot better proxy on the economy than 99.9% of government reports because it's an actual company that has to deal with the real world, unlike the fantasy of government numbers. For about the 4th? time in the past 18 months, they are pushing guidance down...

As you know the commodity trade has been the big winner... very crowded; it's 2007 all over again. If only these companies would not open their mouths and report on reality we could keep bidding up stocks in this group for no reason other than "everyone else is buying so I must too". Mosaic (MOS) and Potash (POT) have been reporting poor numbers for about 3 quarters now, while constantly saying the turn is "just around the bend". Then the next quarter the turn has not come. I have now come the point I doubt their words because they keep saying one thing, and another happens. Today, the fertilizer names are taking a hit because Potash (POT) says they are cutting back production yet again.... but not to worry, this will just lead to even larger demand "soon" (Groundhog Day?)

Options Expiration Week Similarities Continue
Hickey and Walters (Bespoke) submit:
In a post yesterday, we highlighted how this month's expiration week was starting off much in the same way that May's options expiration week progressed. Heading into Friday, we see that the similarities over the last two trading days have continued. In both months, the S&P 500 started off both options expiration weeks with three down days and then rallied 1% on Thursday. Both weeks also traded within a 40 point range as well. Unfortunately for the bulls, however, in May the week ended with another decline of 1% on Friday.click to enlargeComplete Story »

Sprint Failing to Lure New Customers with Pre Sam Diaz submits:
Shares of both Sprint (S) and Palm (PALM) both tumbled Wednesday after an analyst issued a report that suggested that Sprint is failing to lure customers away from rival carriers with the launch of the Palm Pre smartphone earlier this month. Seeing how it hasn’t even been two weeks since the Pre launched and the devices sold out almost immediately, it may be a little premature to say that Sprint and Palm are failing here (but when has Wall Street taken something like that into consideration). It is true, though, that Sprint and Palm both need to up their games in terms of marketing and advertising not only the Pre but also the better-value service plans that the company is offering.Complete Story »

Apple: Will First Weekend iPhone Sales Beat Last Time? Eric Savitz (Barron's) submits: So will there be another frenzy? The first two times Apple (AAPL) started selling new iPhones - the original version and then the follow-up 3G version - Apple and AT&T (T) stores were jammed with customers eager to buy. Friday is round three: the company debuts new models (and new price points) for the iPhone. Pricing for qualified customers is $299 for the new 32 GB iPhone 3G S, $199 for the 16 GB version and $99 for the old 8 GB version. The really interesting question is whether the new low priced model will drive a jump in market share, as many analysts believe. And as I noted Wednesday, there’s also some question about whether for many existing customers, the iPhone OS software upgrade that rolled out Wednesday will be a big enough improvement that they will hold off on a hardware upgrade.Complete Story »

Unemployment 'Paychecks' Double Tyler Durden submits: As program trading computers pretend to care about such fundamental things as continuing jobless claims, a peculiar trend emerges. Over the past two months, it has become obvious that while continuing claims have doubled (up 124% to be precise from March 2007) - a major metric that many market participants (at least ones not based on a SPARC architecture) have been following - another, potentially more troubling observation is that Monthly Unemployment Payments have doubled the rate of increase in jobless claims (234% from March 2007 based on the Treasury Daily Statement). (For Leibniz fans, is this a third derivative issue?)

In summary, over the past two years, while unemployment claims have climbed from 2,688 million in March 2007 to 6,157 in May 2009, monthly unemployment payments have skyrocketed from $3,238 million to $10,807 over the same time period. Furthermore, run rating June 15 intramonth results, indicates that this will be the all time most cash outflowing month for unemployment benefits, at $12,354 million.Complete Story »

Thursday's Options Recap Frederic Ruffy submits: SentimentStocks are holding modest gains with help from better-than-expected economic data Thursday. A report released before the opening bell on Wall Street showed a long-awaited decline in continuing claims.

The gauge of regional manufacturing activity rose to -2.2 in June, from -22.6 the month before and much better than the -17 economists had predicted. A separate report, released at the same time, showed the list of leading indicators increasing by 1.2 percent in May, which also topped economist forecasts of 1 percent.Complete Story »

Currency Intervention: Is Switzerland at It Again? Kathy Lien submits:
Thursday morning, the Swiss National Bank kept interest rates unchanged at a record low of 0.25 percent and made no changes to their asset purchase program. SNB Chairman Roth tried to inject uncertainty into the currency market by saying that the central bank has no "fixed threshold" that triggers currency purchases and therefore traders should not get used to a certain level of intervention. Yet it is hard to believe the SNB when 1.50 has been the line in sand for the past 3 months especially after the power move in EUR/CHF that screams of intervention this morning. The Bank of International Settlements and the Swiss National Bank has declined to comment on the move, but the last time there was such an overt intervention was on March 12th, when EUR/CHF 400 pips in a matter of minutes. Thursday FEUR/CH surged 150 pips in 30 minutes. Prior to the sharp move, currency traders tested the resolve of the SNB by taking EUR/CHF down to 1.5008, the lowest level in the past 3 months, which is widely believed to be the SNB's pain threshold. Typically intervention efforts have not been very successful (note RBNZ and BoJ) but the SNB is proving otherwise. With the central bank creating an artificial floor under EUR/CHF, any move back towards 1.50 could provide a good risk to reward opportunity.Complete Story »

Comparing Networking ETFs: iShares (IGN) vs. PowerShares (PXQ) Don Dion submits:
Technology ETFs have been rising to the top of our momentum charts in recent months, as tech-heavy indices like the PowerShares [[QQQQ]] outshine broader measures of market strength. Focused tech funds have performed even better, and iShares S&P North American Technology-Multimedia Networking Index Fund (IGN) and PowerShares Dynamic Networking Portfolio (PXQ) have hovered at the top of our Sector Momentum Tracker ETF rankings, as of June 12 holding the No. 10 and No. 20 spots, respectively. While IGN and PXQ share many top-10 components, their underlying methodologies and performance differentiate the funds and should be considered by prospective buyers. While PXQ has a slightly higher fee than IGN does, as well as significantly fewer shares trading hands in the course of an average trading day, this PowerShares offering represents a more appropriate investment for buyers looking to diversify a small amount of their portfolio with networking stocks over the long term.click to enlargeComplete Story »

Global Pharma Outlook Negative as Patents Expire Research Recap submits:
The outlook for the global pharmaceutical industry remains negative, mainly due to looming patent expirations of top-selling drugs and weakening product pipelines, says Moody’s in a new Global Pharmaceutical Industry Outlook. Key points:Consolidation in the form of M&A or diversification into other health-related businesses such as consumer health will persist as companies seek ways to offset the industry’s main challenges: weaker pipelines and patent expirations of top-selling drugs.Although the industry is not as exposed to a recession as others, a prolonged economic downturn could result in more pricing pressure and slowdowns in revenue growth as governments seek to ease the healthcare burden, especially in the US.Healthcare reform in the US will likely increase pricing pressure on prescription drug companies, but may benefit generic manufacturers. Challenging regulatory hurdles, including the US Food and Drug Administration’s ((FDA)) more cautious stance toward new-drug approvals also adds a layer of uncertainty.Financial performance should remain relatively solid over the near term. Companies continue to report good profits, have strong balance sheets and post good cash-flow generation. Some companies have undertaken restructuring efforts to reduce costs in an effort to help mitigate the impact of current industry challenges. Complete Story »

Commodity Prices: Undeniable Green Shoots Calafia Beach Pundit submits:
I return to this subject to clarify what I think is driving commodity prices. There's been lots of back-and-forth on this in the commentary. People who are skeptical that rising prices signal a recovering economy invariably allege that speculators, fueled by easy money, are driving prices higher, and so rising prices tell us nothing about the health of the economy but a lot about how easy the Fed is and how much inflation (ultimately an economy-killer) we'll have going forward. I've countered that it is difficult for speculators to amass sufficient stockpiles of a lot of the commodities contained in this index. After some brief research I even uncovered data showing that inventories of copper at the London metals exchanges have dropped significantly in recent months even as prices have risen.Complete Story »

Since mid-November, the triple long financial ETF (FAS) is down 71% to $10.38, while the triple short financial ETF (FAZ) is down 95% to $4.43. Over the same time period, the financial index that the ETFs track is up 7%! Go figure. The triple leveraged ETFs track the daily return of the indices they follow, and their prospectuses do not suggest using them as long-term investments even if you think a sector or index will go up or down. Some people have seemingly figured out how to make money off of these triple ETFs, however. Go short both the triple long and triple short ETF, as they both drift towards zero in volatile markets. As shown below, short interest has risen to 25 million for FAS and 18 million for FAZ. Complete Story »

Why Effective Regulatory Overhaul Is Hard Felix Salmon submits: Tyler Cowen has a good post on why it might not be such a bad thing after all that the coming regulatory overhaul isn’t going to be nearly as big or comprehensive as many of us originally hoped. Tyler’s best points, I think, are that (a) the Department of Homeland Security is living proof that regulatory consolidation is not necessarily going to be a great success; that (b) “box reshuffling” can be a distraction from “substantive goals of mission”; and that (c) a lot of the real obstacles to effective regulation are actually Congressional, rather than being endemic to the current structure.Complete Story »

Whither Cap-and-Trade? An IM Exchange Felix Salmon submits: One of the great things about working for Reuters is that I get to pester journalists who actually know what they’re talking about. So after reading Timothy Gardner’s story on the cap-and-trade bill today, I got him on IM, and learned a lot — not least that Waxman-Markey is being considered more of an all-encompassing energy bill, as opposed to simply a way of creating a cap-and-trade scheme. Which on the one hand means that it can be loaded up with enough pork to make it pass, but on the other hand makes everything much more complicated: Felix Salmon: Your headline says that a cap-and-trade bill is “more likely” in 2010 than in 2009, is that right?

Friday Options Update: CAL, POT, EEM, RMBS, NVDA, FXI Continental Airlines, Inc. (CAL) – Shares of the U.S. air carrier are lower by approximately 1% today to $9.19 amid total declines of 12% on the stock since the opening bell on Monday morning. One option trader was observed make a bullish play on CAL, hoping to see clearer skies in the airline’s future. The investor established a long butterfly spread in the September contract by selling 10,000 calls at the September 12.5 strike price [body] for a premium of 65 cents. The body of the spread was combined with the purchase of 5,000 calls at the September 10 strike for 1.40 apiece [wing 1] as well as the purchase of 5,000 calls at the September 14 strike price for 37 cents per contract [wing 2]. The transaction cost the trader a net 47 cents (1*1.40 [wing 1] + 1*0.37 [wing 2] – 2*0.65 [body] = 0.47). Maximum potential profits of 2.03 will be realized by this individual if shares of CAL can rally 36% to $12.50 by expiration. A long butterfly spread was an excellent choice by the bullish investor responsible for the trade. The application of the spread effectively lowered the breakeven point to $10.47 instead of the breakeven point of $13.15 which would have resulted from pure bullish call buying at the central 12.5 strike price.Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan, Inc. (POT) – The feed products company has experienced a share price decline of 2.5% to $114.90. Taking advantage of the price erosion was one investor who sold a chunk of put options in the July contract. This individual was observed selling approximately 15,000 puts at the July 80 strike price for an average premium of 65 cents apiece. The aggregate premium enjoyed on the trade amounts to $975,000. He will retain the full premium assuming the price of POT remains higher than $80.00 by expiration next month. Inherent in the short sale is the obligation of the writer to have shares put to him at expiration if indeed shares plummet more than $34.00 or 30% in the next month.Complete Story »

Savient Up Big on Friday Ockham Research submits: Savient Pharmaceuticals (SVNT) is trading about 60% higher in afternoon trading on Friday, and the circumstances surrounding the massive gains a bit perplexing. Savient, a specialty biopharmaceuticals company, has a drug called Krystexxa that is used to treat gout patients. This drug has been the subject of an FDA review since December, and today the FDA released a statement saying that, although the drug does seem to work, there still may be significant health concerns associated with the treatment. The drug has not received approval and there will be an additional panel asked to study the drug at the request of the FDA. This FDA review ended in an inconclusive fashion, after already delaying its findings once, it would seem to be bad news for the company. In the most recent trial more than twice as many patients on the drug reported serious side effects than those taking the placebo, and there were six participants that died as a result of heart problems associated with the drug (as opposed to 3 on the placebo). Those results are inconclusive in the opinion of the FDA because many of these patients had pre-existing conditions. However, the stock is having an amazingly successful day because the FDA says that the drug did help relieve swelling and lessen the painful flare ups associated with gout. Complete Story »

Friday's Options Recap Frederic Ruffy submits: SentimentStocks turned in another mixed trading session Friday. With little news to guide the morning action, the focus was on falling commodities prices and consumer sentiment data. A report released from the University of Michigan released Friday morning showed modest improvement in consumer sentiment in early June, to 69 from 68.7 in May. Economists were looking for an increase to 69.5.Meanwhile, crude oil slipped 63 cents to $72.05 and gold had a rough day, trading down $21.50 to $940.50 an ounce.

Drill, Baby, Drill: IEA Report on Energy Demand and the Services Markets Keith R. McCullough submits:The International Energy Agency increased its forecast of global oil consumption by 120,000 barrels per day earlier today. The Agency’s new projection is for 83.3MM barrels per day in demand, which is down 2.9% y-o-y. This data point is noteworthy for the fact that this is the first time in 10 months that the IEA has raised their oil demand forecast, so signifies an inflection point in demand even if levels are well below y-o-y levels.

Additionally, earlier in the week IEA’s head Nobu Tanaka told Reuters that OECD stock levels for oil were at 63 days, but he expected them to be at 57 days by year end. It is conventional wisdom that that 50 days of forward cover is very bullish for oil prices, 53 days is bullish, 57 days bearish and 60 days very bearish. While the projected days coverage is not “bullish” per se, it is directionally positive, especially in conjunction with the demand data point above.Complete Story »

Chart of the Day - Length of Recessions John Lounsbury submits:The current offering from http://www.chartofthed... is useful to give some perspective to where we are in light of a century of history.This recession (thus far) has lasted only slightly longer than the recessions of 1973-74 and 1981-82. However, in spite of the optimism of some, the current recession is probably not ending in the second quarter. So it is likely to add at least a couple of more months. That would mean that, skipping over the 43 month recession that started the Great Depression, we will have to go back to 1913 to find a recession that lasted longer. This recession would have to last past the end of 2009 to surpass the three Great Recessions of the early 1900's.Complete Story »

Possibly because the U.S. was more proactive in "fixing" the banks, while major E.U. economies like Germany have been severely by shrinking exports.

University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Disappoints Kathy Lien submits:
The University of Michigan Sentiment index narrowly missed expectations, indicating that consumers remain reluctant to spend money. The number, which has been rising over the last few months, reached 69.0, the highest levels since September of 2008. Nevertheless, the pace of improvement is slowing, and serves as a perfect confirmation behind yesterday’s Retail Sales report. The U of M numbers on consumer spending and confidence support the notion that the economy is at least bottoming out. Nevertheless, as unemployment rises to a quarter-century high, it is not a surprise that consumers will prefer saving rather than spending. Of course, as a US recovery will depend greatly on spending, this may only curtail our pace toward a turnaround. It goes without saying that improved spending and confidence will only follow a more substantial and sustained improvement in the employment sector.Complete Story »

Citigroup: Extrapolating to 2015 Richard Bookstaber submits: The most exciting times in my career have not been when money was rolling in and everyone around the trading desk was sharing high-fives. It was when we were fighting to survive, when we were huddled in a boat in the middle of the stormy sea. That was the world of Salomon in the mid-1990s, when we were one step away from becoming non-investment grade. It was us against the world.I visited Citigroup (C) a few times over recent weeks and it reminds me of those times. Granted, it is not the world in which you would want to have found yourself. People have lost much of their wealth; in some cases they have had to make painful shifts in their lifestyle. They are seeing their compensation potential capped while competitors are being unshackled.

Levels of Corporate Leverage Are Too High Tyler Durden submits: Using the Fed's Flow of Funds (Z.1) report allows readers to calculate overall corporate leverage: a quick and dirty proxy for a top down leverage analysis. Much in the same way that corporate leverage is derived, the Z.1 provides the data needed to calculate the ratio of net debt to LTM internal funds/adjusted after-tax profits. This is a holistic number that does not stratify based on credit quality so IG and HY get commingled in this calculation (thus keeping it simplified and allowing historical apples to apples comparisons).

Q1 corporate leverage was 1.34x, unchanged from Q4 2008, a level higher than at any point over the past quarter of a century. Comparable prior peaks have lead the HY default rate by on average 9 months in 90-91 and 01-02, implying an expected peak of corporate defaults in early 2010. What is a bigger threat is that once all the external benefits from assistance and stimulus programs wears off, the "peak" could end up being merely a blip in an accelerating upward trajectory. As Bank Of America points out: "we remain concerned that we can be witnessing a temporary stabilization in this ratio, similar to the highlighted 1989 episode, which can then take us to the second leg of deterioration to new highs. In this case default cycle is likely to be pushed well into the future, with an uncertain peak levels. Performance of this ratio over the next few quarters would be crucial in answering this question."Complete Story »

State Street: Is It Trading for Federal Accounts? Tyler Durden submits: Zero Hedge has always been fascinated by the behemoths of securities lending (or not so much lately) State Street (STT) and Bank Of New York (BK): These firms, which allegedly had just marginal toxic exposure, were in the front lines for the TARP bailout and have traditionally been handled with velvet gloves by the administration. In fact, many would say the custodian firms are in a league of importance much higher than even Goldman (GS) or JP Morgan (JPM) as with their repo activity, security lending and cash collateral reinvestment, they are the de facto center of the shadow banking system.

Betting on a Bounce: How to Play the Housing Sector (On the Street)

It’s been over a year since the housing sector imploded. Yet, it's still at the epicenter of the current economic crisis. Many market watchers are pinning any chance of a broad recovery on housing pulling one off first, so the data emerging out of the sector is closely watched. Indeed, while most investors have steered clear of the industry, other opportunistic ones are reading into the numbers and predicting housing will make a remarkable rebound over the next few years. They are even betting billions of dollars by investing in housing-related mutual funds, exchange-traded funds and individual stocks. The big question: If they are right should you jump in, too? The problem with answering that is the data are sometimes contradictory. In fact, these days it seems to always be contradictory. Over the last month, investors have poured over numbers on pending home sales, building permits, regional trouble spots, home builder earnings, mortgage rates and foreclosures. For every piece of news that seems to point to a bottom occurring there is another that shows there's still room to fall further. One detail that can’t be denied: Since the 2006 peak of national property values, average home prices are down nearly a third, back to levels last seen in the fourth quarter of 2002. All that means making a smart investment in the housing sector is a risky prospect. Just like when “no one had a good forecast about when the bubble would burst,” says Jim Diffley, managing director at the consulting firm IHS Global Insight, “there's a challenge to betting that prices have bottomed or are about to bottom and will come up.” For investors trying to figure out what to do amidst the crisis the most important thing to remember is that national numbers encompass thousands of smaller stories. There are parts of the country hurting more than others — the ailing Southeast vs. the somewhat stable New England area — and parts of the housing market have succumbed more than others — luxury houses vs. starter homes. For example, recently the National Association of Realtors said pending home sales in New England, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania were up 36% in April from the previous month’s level. The southern region lost .2% during that same time period. Various other reports say Phoenix, one of the hardest-hit housing markets, has seen the average home price slip 53% from the peak two years ago. Dallas, however, is only down 11%. “It's something of a cliché, but all real estate markets are local,” says Jack McCabe, an independent housing analyst and president of McCabe Research & Consulting in Deerfield Beach, Fla., a state with the third-highest rate of foreclosures nationwide. "Every market started this boom and bust cycle at different times." Adds Dave McCarthy, chief executive of Integrated Asset Services, a Denver-based company that runs a proprietary housing index on 360 counties: In some local markets “we're starting to see some leveling off. It's at least looking less volatile than the last couple of months.” A savvy stock picker could read into those statements and think home builders with exposure to certain areas may have seen the worst of times while others could be in store for worse. That’s a pretty big jump to make, though, says McCabe. He thinks it's early, risky and maybe even foolish to buy home-builder stocks like Toll Brothers (TOL), D.R. Horton (DHI) or Pulte (PHM) just because they appear cheap. “I don't see it,” he says. “You've got escalating foreclosures, escalating unemployment and excess inventory – that should give you an idea of the health of these markets. Home builders just can't compete with existing units on the market.” Instead of trying to predict which individual home builder will recover first, a less-risky option may be to buy an exchange-traded fund that owns a basket of housing-related stocks. SPDR S&P Homebuilders (XHB) is an ETF that counts Home Depot (HD), Lowe's (LOW), Bed Bath & Beyond (BBBY), Sherwin Williams (SHW) and D.R. Horton among its top holdings. The iShares Dow Jones U.S. Home Construction fund (ITB) tracks an index that includes Toll Brothers, KB Home (KBH) and Meritage Home (MTH). Both are widely traded and cheap. But they can also swing wildly on a daily basis, especially when data are released. (Fidelity offers a mutual fund, Select Construction & Housing (FSHOX), that owns many of the same companies.) Not every investment has to hinge on a rosy recovery for housing. For investors who can stomach a little more risk, McCabe suggests a bet on more bad news, this time in commercial real estate. General Growth Properties, the second-largest U.S. mall owner, went bankrupt in April, because it couldn't refinance its debts, despite having almost $30 billion in assets. “I'd probably short some of the retail and office public companies,” he says, because many of them are facing large balloon payments or refinancings that will be far more costly than the cheap credit terms they got five years ago. Real estate investment trusts like Simon Property Group (SPG), Federal Realty Trust (FRT) or Vornado Realty Trust (VNO) have all seen strong rebounds from March, but the combined dropoff in consumer spending and the looming commercial mortgage crunch could bode poorly. “I see that as the next shoe to drop,” McCabe says. “We have over $900 billion in loans on commercial projects that have balloon payments and need new financing, and I don't see the money being there.” Another atypical option: Buy distressed properties. IAS, which specializes in default valuations, says 42% of the property sales it tracked in April were bought by investors. However, these weren’t big bulk buys of unsold condos in battered markets like Las Vegas, Southern California, or Florida, where vulture investors have been preying. "It's all onesies-twosies," says McCarthy. “Savvy local investors are starting to get back into the market.” The idea of making tantalizing returns on a well-timed housing play is an intriguing prospect. But most investors should remember this: The average S&P 500 index fund owns many of the same companies in the offerings listed above, so if they rally your plain-vanilla fund will, too.

3 Companies With Fast, Organic Growth (Screens)

Activision-Blizzard (ATVI) and Thomson-Reuters (TRIN) posted huge sales increases last year, but only because of the mergers reflected in their hyphenated names. When one company buys another, it simply lumps the new sales in with its own for reporting purposes. Since no new business is created, the stock price is often unaffected by the “growth.” Organic growth is different. When a company’s sales surge, not because of a merger, but because of heated demand for its products and services, its stock price can march higher. Whether it does depends on how expensive the stock is to start, and whether the growth is faster or slower than investors are counting on. Rosetta Stone (RST), which makes language course software, reported May 11 after the market’s close that first-quarter sales had shot 41% higher than a year earlier. But investors clearly wanted more: Over the next two days, the stock lost 25%. In their most recent quarters, Netflix (NFLX), Green Mountain Coffee Roasters (GMCR) and SalesForce.com (CRM) grew sales by 21%, 60% and 23%, respectively. But you’ll pay dearly for a piece of that growth. Shares of the movie-rental outfit sell for 26 times this year’s earnings forecast, the office coffee specialist is 61 times earnings and the business-software firm is 69 times earnings. The broad market, for comparison, is 17 times forecast 2009 earnings. I recently went hunting for companies producing fast, organic sales growth, and which also have reasonable price/earnings ratios.

Fluor (FLR) builds oil refineries, power plants and other complex structures. With financing tight, project cancellations earlier this year, including a $2.1 billion Kuwait refinery, rattled investors, but shares have now rallied 47% in three months. On May 11 the company announced first-quarter sales increased 21% and earnings jumped 50%. New project awards were about as strong as a year ago. Shares still seem reasonable priced at 14 times earnings. The company enjoys a giant cash surplus but pays only a meager dividend, yielding less than 1%. Unemployment hurts plenty of businesses, but not for-profit schools, which suddenly find themselves with a rush of jobless applicants. The trouble is, the trend isn’t lost on investors, and the likes of DeVry (DV) and Strayer (STRA) go for 20 and 28 times earnings, respectively. ITT Educational Services (ESI), which operates more than 100 technical schools in 37 states, sells for 13 times earnings and is growing fiercely. In its first quarter, student enrollment increased 37%, sales swelled 23% and earnings rose 47%. Finally, Buffalo Wild Wings (BWLD) managed to produce a saucy 35% sales gain in its first quarter, including a 6.4% improvement at longstanding stores. The latter figure would have been 2.5 percentage points higher if not for a shift of Easter into April this year, management figures. Shares are almost 20 times earnings, which is a bit pricier than what I set out to find. But if Wall Street’s growth projections are to be believed, the stock might be worth paying up for. Earnings are expected to climb 24% this year and 22% next year.

Major Indexes Mixed on Energy, Consumer Data (Market Update) News at a Glance

Money-Back Guarantee: TARP repayments to begin next week. Woah, Nellie: Fed to slow asset portfolio expansion. Searching for Direction: Major indexes mixed on consumer data. Barclays Shrinks: BlackRock to buy BGI for $13.5 billion.

The Lowdown The consumer remains a point of concern on Wall Street. Stocks were lower Friday, after an improved but dissappointing reading of the Consumer Sentiment Index failed to pull the major indexes completely out of an early funk and commodities prices eased. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 28 at 8799, closing slightly higher than where it started Monday and above its 2009 starting point. The Nasdaq gave up 3 at 1858, and the S&P 500 gained 1 at 946.
In economic news, the Consumer Sentiment Index rose to 69.0 in June -- its highest point in the last nine months, but short of economists' projections. The market had been looking for more of an improvement in consumer mood, particularly after recent data suggesting retail sales were making a comeback and the housing sector is nearing a bottom. In finance, several firms will kick off the process of repaying loans taken out as part of the government's Troubled Asset Relief Program as soon as next Wednesday, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing anonymous sources. The banks are said to include JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Morgan Stanley (MS) and American Express (AXP). In Washington, the Federal Reserve is likely to slow its purchase of bonds in the near-term, as some Fed officials have grown uneasy about the potential inflationary affects of continuing to expand the bank's portfolio. World markets were mixed. In Asia, Japan's Nikkei picked up 1.6%, while Hong Kong's Hang Seng climbed 0.5%. In Europe, the U.K.'s FTSE dipped 0.5%. On the Nymex, oil prices took a step back after a long rally. Crude traded down 55 cents at $72.13 a barrel. Corporate News

Barclays (BCS) has agreed to sell its Global Investment unit to BlackRock (BLK) for $13.5 billion, the firm said. The deal will make BlackRock the largest fund manager in the world. General Motors is close to a deal to sell its Saab division to an unnamed buyer, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing an anonymous source. GM is in the process of streamlining its operation before attempting to emerge from bankruptcy.

The Economy

The Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index rose to a preliminary June reading of 69.0, up a bit from 68.7 in May, Reuters and the University of Michigan said. For June, economists had predicted a slightly bigger bump to a reading of 69.5. STORY

Where Do We Go From Here? (Ahead of the Curve)

Green shoots continue to shoot. I'm now very confident that we've seen the worst in this recession and this bear market. For stocks, I'm confident that the March bottom will hold. The nontrivial question is where do we go from here? It's nice to rule out zero as our destination (we couldn't have done that three months ago). But is there any upside? That's a whole other matter, and the data aren't clear about how we should feel about it. The fact is, we're in uncharted territory. In modern times we've never had a meltdown like this one before, we have no idea what the aftermath might look like. Future generations will have this as a precedent to guide them. We today have nothing. Take a look at the chart of the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Stocks have rallied about 40% from the March lows — by any standard that's a whole bull market unto itself, and in just three months. But they don't know what to do next. They've been stuck in a 1.5% trading range for the last nine trading sessions.

OK, even though those last nine sessions have gone nowhere, at least they represent a breakout from the steep downtrend that has defined the worst of the bear market. That's terrific — even if you don't believe in technical analysis, it signifies something good. But does it feel to you like stocks want to take the ball and run with it, now that they are out of that downtrend? It doesn't to me. Last week I wrote about my favorite macroeconomic indicator, the growth of S&P 500 consensus forward earnings. I said that it was just about to turn positive after a year and a half of decline — and I noted that, in the past, a turn positive was always associated with the end of recession. The good news is that now it has, in fact, turned positive. I like to see a month's worth of confirming data, and now I'm happy to say that aggregate consensus forward earnings are about $27 billion, or about 4%, higher than they were a month ago.

That's great, but it's not that simple this time. There's always the risk that a seeming turnaround in earnings won't really last. There's no evidence of such a thing over the last quarter century, but as I said, we're in uncharted territory. And you have to be at least suspicious when you look under the hood — the specific choice of metaphor here is intentional. It turns out that about half the $27 billion turnaround in forward earnings is simply because General Motors was dropped from the S&P 500 last week. Forward earnings for GM were a loss of $13 billion — and removing that loss is the equivalent of a gain. But that gain is an illusion from the macroeconomic standpoint, because those expected losses are still in the economy — they're just out of the S&P 500. It's still a $10 billion turnaround for forward earnings, overall. But it's enough to make you at least a little cautious. The job market is sending the same kind of mixed signal. I noted here a month ago that the four-week moving average of new claims of unemployment benefits peaked in early April. Celebrated economist Robert Gordon has written that this has been an infallible indicator of the end of recession, in every case starting in 1975. That indicator has just gotten better and better, as new claims continue to gradually fall. But other labor-market statistics make that simple story a lot more complicated. They don't necessarily throw doubt on the prospect that the recession is over, but they make you wonder seriously how robust the recovery can be. Take a look at the chart below. It charts the probability that an employed worker will become unemployed in any given month. Right now it's about 2.75%. That means this month, you have a 97.25% chance of not getting fired. Forgive me if I don't explain the exact calculation — it's straightforward arithmetic using the statistics available from the Department of Labor.

That's good news, right? It means there's almost no chance you'll lose your job. By historical standards, this is indeed a very good number. It's not all that different that it was during most of the late 1990s, which were considered to be a boom for jobs. It was even better in 2007 before the recession hit — in fact, it was the best in history then. Never before did you have a better chance of keeping your job. So what's not to like? For one thing, it means there's not much room for improvement. But more important, this isn't the whole story. The job market isn't just about keeping your existing job. Someone is always going to lose his job, even in the best of times — and for that person, the issue is how easy it is to get a new job. And never before in history has that situation been worse. Look at the next chart.

This is the probability that a worker who loses his job will get a new one within a month — it's less than 25%. It's at its worst level in history. It's never been harder to get a new job quickly. And you can see that even before the recession, at the peak of the last recession, new jobs were almost as hard to find as they were at the bottoms of previous recessions. Is there room for improvement? Yes, and that's the good news. But why is it so bad in the first place? And why was it so bad even when things were good? These are the questions that keep me up at night. I'm thrilled that we're no longer headed for a new Great Depression. But I really am not sure what we're headed for instead. And stocks obviously aren't sure either. They feel to me like they don't want to go down. But they don't feel like they want to go up, either. If you had to say “in” or “out” on stocks now, I'd say “in.” With the worst-case scenario ruled out, at least there's more upside than downside. How much is it, though? We just don't know yet.

2 Energy Funds Being Fueled by Oil's Rally (Screens)

It's just two weeks into summer and gas prices are already on the rise. The price of a barrel of oil surged to a recent $71, an almost 70% jump since bottoming out earlier this year, and rekindled talk that it could approach the $150 mark it flirted with mid-2008. No doubt, that will eventually translate into even higher prices at the gas pump just as Americans prepare to head out on vacation. Blame oil's dramatic rise on inflation fears. Investors are worried that the trillions of dollars the government is spending in bailouts and other initiatives will weaken the U.S. dollar and boost inflation over the next few years. Dollar-denominated commodities like oil have historically been good hedges against inflation since their prices increase as the dollar weakens. Oil is also being propped up by hopes that a global economic recovery is underway. On Thursday, the International Energy Agency revised upward its 2009 global demand forecast, the first time it had done so in 10 months. Of course, oil's increase can also be partly blamed on speculators who artificially move oil prices even when the fundamentals don't support the price. "Oil may be overbought right now, but there is the potential to see heavy inflation," says Steven Stahler, president of financial advisory firm Stahler Group in Baton Rouge, La. Over the long term, he says, oil will be "somewhere between where we are now and $100." Oil's rally is putting the energy sector back in the spotlight. Lipper's natural resources fund category is up 29.3% this year through Thursday vs. a 5.8% increase for the typical S&P 500 index fund. It's been a while since we turned our attention to energy, and it seems like a good time to revisit this sector as oil prices climb. There are just 48 funds in this category, one of the smallest groups we start with all year. We narrowed that universe to 11 funds after excluding funds that charge sales loads. We then searched for funds with top-tier long-term track records and low fees. Once that search was complete, we were left with just two funds, Columbia Energy & Natural Resources (UMESX) and ICON Energy (ICENX). Those are the same two funds that made our list the last time and they haven’t disappointed us since then. Despite the narrow selection of funds that invest in the energy sector, the industry is incredibly diverse. It encompasses physical commodities such as oil, natural gas and gasoline, as well as the drillers and equipment makers that get those products out of the ground and the conglomerates that refine it and sell the end products to consumers and businesses. The sector also includes the emerging alternative energy industry, including solar and wind power. The typical S&P 500 index fund allocates about 13% of its portfolio to energy, which is plenty for most investors. But those who want to make more calculated bets can always buy individual securities like Exxon Mobil (XOM), which recently hit $73 a share, an almost 20% gain from its March low, or invest in exchange-traded funds that track a particular group of stocks. Stahler likes high-yielding, tax-friendly master limited partnerships that focus on things like natural gas pipelines. (Claymore has a fund (FMO) that invests in a basket of MLPs.) State Street's SPDR ETF family has offerings that track equipment makers (XES), exploration & production companies (XOP) and the broad sector (XLE). Claymore and Market Vectors offer solar energy funds and the United States Oil ETF (USO) offers exposure to black gold. Of course, typical investors don't have the time or expertise to understand the ins and outs of a master limited partnership or trading energy ETFs. If you are considering overweighting your portfolio toward energy it would pay to first see a financial advisor like Stahler. Another option is to use an actively-managed mutual fund like the ones listed below. A word of caution: The sector can be volatile and as we said before, most investors already have plenty of exposure through a plain-vanilla index fund.

The Criteria: The natural resources funds below are open to new money, require a minimum investment of under $5,000 and charge an annual expense ratio under 1.5%. They have track records that put them in the top 40% of their category over the trailing three- and five-year periods. They're also beating the S&P 500 on a year-to-date basis. As usual, we did not include load funds.

5 Risky Real Estate Deals (Consumer Action)

Despite efforts to crack down on risky lending practices, sketchy housing deals are making a comeback. In the throes of the subprime meltdown, most mortgage lenders tightened lending standards, requiring borrowers to have credit scores of at least 700 and down payments often of 10% or more. But as the credit crunch takes a toll on consumers' credit scores and cash positions, those questionable lending practices are beginning to pop up again. “[S]ince early this year…a new wave of people are finding ways to scam [home buyers],” says Dani Babb, founder of The Babb Group, which offers real estate consulting to consumers, and dean of business at Andrew Jackson University.

Read about 5 types of risky real estate deals

Combine such risky deals as 100% financing and piggyback loans with skyrocketing interest rates and fees and it could spell disaster -- both for borrowers' bottom lines and
the economy, says Chip Cummings, president of Northwind Financial, a Grand Rapids, Mich.-based training and consulting firm for mortgage and realtor firms. Here are five risky financing offers that prospective home buyers should watch out for: Practice: Hard money lending Hard money loans may seem attractive to those who've had a run of bad luck, but it will cost them dearly. Most hard money lenders don’t place an emphasis on a borrower's credit score or employment status and will even offer loans to borrowers who've been rejected for government-backed or private mortgages. On average, these mortgages charge interest of anywhere from 10% to 14% and can require the borrower to pay up to five points, or 5% of the loan, upfront, says Leonard Baron, adjunct professor of real estate investing at San Diego State University. (One point equals 1% of the loan. Currently, the average mortgage rate on a 30-year fixed is 5.81% and typical mortgages charge from 0 to 0.5 points, says Keith Gumbinger, a vice president at HSH Associates, a mortgage data firm.) And, in return for taking on the extra risk, many hard money lenders require the borrower to make a down payment of around 30%, says Baron. Some may even offer mortgages with zero money down, but require the borrower to put up collateral – like their car, says Babb. The problem here is that these loan contracts are often so confusing that some borrowers don't realize they are signing away their assets, she says.

Bottom line for the borrower: Not only will you pay sky-high interest, but borrowing from a hard money lender has the potential to dig you into a deep financial hole should you fall behind on payments, says Baron.

Risk for the economy: Hard money loans make up less than 1% of the mortgage market, says Baron. “But the number of people turning to them could grow if the credit crunch continues,” he says. Practice: Advances on the First-Time Homebuyer Tax credit The First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit, which offers up to $8,000 to qualifying buyers who purchase a home through Nov. 30, is a generous perk worth taking advantage of. But it can also get some home buyers into deep trouble. In late May, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) said it would permit FHA-approved mortgage lenders to offer eligible borrowers an advance based on the tax credit. Borrowers, in most cases, are still required to make the standard 3.5% down payment required for FHA-insured mortgages, but they can add the value of the credit to the down payment or they can use it to pay for closing costs, says Cummings. Repayment rules vary, but depending on the lender, borrowers will have to pay the loan each month, pay a lump sum when they receive their tax credit or make payments
over several years. And, in most cases, they'll be paying interest, too. (HUD recommends that lenders refrain from charging fees that surpass 2.5% of the tax credit.)

Bottom line for the borrower: If a borrower needs to rely on an advance of their tax credit to afford the purchase, then they'll probably have a hard time affording both their loan payments on the advance and the mortgage payments, says Cummings.

Risk for the economy: “We’re building a house of cards like we did before,” says Cummings. “We’re getting people into homes that they can’t necessarily afford with no equity, which is artificially propping up the market.” A new ripple effect of foreclosures could occur in the next two years as a result of this practice, he says. Practice: Zero-down financing Believe it or not, it’s still possible to buy a home with zero money down, says Babb. Recently, more than 10 states, including California, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, created state loan programs that give borrowers the 3.5% down payment they’ll need for an FHA-insured mortgage as a second loan. And in the private lending sector, piggyback loans – when a buyer purchases a home using two mortgages – are slowly returning. In this case, lenders refer borrowers who can’t come up with a down payment to other lenders who can give them a second mortgage for that amount. These second mortgages often carry sky-high interest rates, some near 25%, says Babb. In other cases, buyers try to persuade a seller (especially if they’re eager to unload their home) to loan them the down payment and promise to repay it over time, says Cummings.

Bottom line for the borrower: For piggyback and zero-down loans like these, keeping up with two mortgage payments each month can be tough and could force the borrower to eventually walk away from the home, especially if the home's value drops and they have no equity in the property, says Gibran Nicholas, chairman of the Ann Arbor, Mich.-based CMPS Institute, which trains and certifies mortgage lenders and brokers. Sellers who agree to front the down payment, meanwhile, could find themselves high and dry if the buyer is unable to pay it back.

Risk for the economy: With banks getting even stricter about whom they lend to, sellers eager to unload their homes and buyers who want to take advantage of low real estate prices are likely to see more unscrupulous lending practices such as these occur, says Cummings. And that could potentially stall or even derail the housing market's recovery. Practice: Unlicensed lenders failing to properly disclose their identity Many mortgages brokers who lost their license during the real estate bubble for creating fraudulent documents or failing to disclose fees have returned to the market -- and they're underwriting FHA-insured mortgages, says Babb. To become an FHA lender, they just register under different names – such as their spouse’s.

Bottom line for the borrower: Many of these lenders are charging high fees and interest rates, says Babb. Some even charge fees for information on mortgages, like whether or not a borrower would qualify for an FHA-insured mortgage, information which is typically free, says Babb.

Risk for the economy: The government doesn’t have the time or manpower to track down these fraudulent lenders, so preventing borrowers from being lured into expensive mortgages will be difficult, says Babb. Practice: Trying to buy a home that recently changed hands In an effort to avoid foreclosure, some homeowners are giving ownership to a relative or friend by signing a quit claim deed -- a practice that's permitted in most states, says Cummings. The relative or friend then agrees to make the monthly mortgage payments until they can sell the home. Anyone looking to buy that home, however, may be in for a surprise. Depending on the type of mortgage they were pre-approved for, prospective buyers may find out late in the process that they are unable to purchase the home and lose the mortgage. The problem is that, in some cases, government-backed loans, such as FHA-insured mortgages or a VA home loans (for veterans), won't allow borrowers to purchase a home that has been owned by its current owner for 90 days or less. The buyer, however, may not know that their loan will be retracted until they’re far into the purchase process, says Cummings. Realtors typically research this information once they receive the listing and will often inform the buyer, but buyers generally won’t be aware of this if the home is being sold by the owner, he says.

Bottom line for the borrower: The buyer risks losing the home they’re interested in -- and the mortgage. They can try to get a private mortgage in the secondary market, but they’ll need a bigger down payment than if they use an FHA-insured loan.

Risk for the economy: This could further slow the amount of time it takes for houses to sell and could spark desperate borrowers to sign up for risky loans, says Cummings.

5 Blue Chips Trading at Bargain Prices (On the Street)

Investors who missed the remarkable 40% market rally since early March might think they've been priced out of the action -- that there are no more bargains to be had. Indeed, the forward price/earnings multiple of the S&P 500 has shot up nearly 24% since March to 16 from just 13. And, alas, it's not difficult to find market watchers who say U.S. equities are overpriced. Fortunately this hasn't been an equal-opportunity rally, market professionals say, leaving some marquee names trading at compelling valuations. "From the March bottom, in every single sector, lower quality is outperforming higher quality," says Hank Smith, chief investment officer of equity at Haverford Investments in Haverford, Penn.

chips trading at bargain prices

That's typical market behavior when it is anticipating a recovery, Smith says, leaving lots of big names out there for the taking on the cheap. "There are tremendous bargains in high-quality, blue-chip growth companies," he says. "Investors have an opportunity to get great companies in which they can be confident of being long-term shareholders." SmartMoney spoke with the pros to suss out opportunities among some of biggest and best-known names around. From technology to consumer staples to financials, here, then, is a look at five blue-chip bargains for the next three to five years. Cisco

Bandwidth, Bandwidth, Bandwidth
52-Week High: $26.70
52-Week Low: $13.61
Forward P/E: 16 At first the Internet was all about moving data. Then came voice. Now comes the truly bandwidth-intensive feat of delivering video around the globe. That spells good things for Cisco (CSCO), a newly minted component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average. As the world's largest maker of switches, routers and networking equipment, Cisco provides the backbone of the Internet, says Andy Goodwin, portfolio manager at Aston/Optimum Large Cap Opportunity fund (AOLCX). "The migration to video is a global event and it provides double-digit growth opportunities for Cisco," he says. "When the economy recovers we think these guys will be back to a 15% earnings growth rate. It's not a dirt-cheap value stock but it is a fairly priced growth stock." Nestle

Grabbing Share in Emerging Markets
52-Week High: $49.51
52-Week Low: $29.12
Forward P/E: 14 As the world's largest food company, Nestle's (NSRGY) brands range from Poland Spring water to Stouffer's frozen meals to Fancy Feast cat food. "They claim the No. 1 or No. 2 spot in almost every field in which they compete," says Steven Roge, portfolio manager at the Roge Partners fund (ROGEX). "And they've made a very strong push into emerging markets like Latin America, India and China." That's allowed the company to grab market share at a very rapid pace and convert customers for "what's probably going to be for life," Roge says. Back out certain assets and you're getting a "world-class company" for 12 times earnings, says Roge. And don't be scared off by the fact that Nestle trades on the Pink Sheets -- the ADR is plenty liquid, Roge says. Procter & Gamble

Growth and Dividends in Good Times and Bad
52-Week High: $73.57
52-Week Low: $43.93
Forward P/E: 14 Dow component Procter & Gamble (PG) isn't just the nation's biggest consumer products company; it has a 50-year history of raising its annual dividend. Throw in a "tremendous" management team (even as A.G. Lafley cedes the CEO role but stays as chairman), a strong balance sheet, "and the confidence that they are growing both earnings and dividends at the same time," and you've got to like this blue chip, says Smith of Haverford Investments. Furthermore, once it becomes clear that the next economic expansion is going to be subpar by historical standards, the market is going to come back to high-quality "Steady Eddies" like P&G, Smith says. "It is hard to see much downside risk if an investor has a three- to five-year time frame." Goldman Sachs

Best in Breed
52-Week High: $190.04
52-Week Low: $47.41
Forward P/E: 11 As one of the last independent Wall Street investment banks/broker-dealers, Goldman Sachs (GS) looks to be able to take advantage of the vastly different financial landscape, says Aston/Optimum's Goodwin. Not only is there less competition, but Goldman should be able to lure top talent away from the likes of Bear Stearns and Merrill Lynch now that they are but parts of banking giants JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and Bank of America (BAC), respectively. "They are the lead horse with a competitive advantage at attracting the best people," Goodwin says. Goldman should have a cyclical snap-back from an improving economy, at which point it should generate a double-digit long-term growth rate, says Goodwin. "And for all of that you can buy the company at 11 times earnings." Ford

Once and Future Blue Chip
52-Week High: $6.75
52-Week Low: $1.01
Forward P/E: N/A Now that bankrupt General Motors is majority owned by the federal government and Fiat was essentially stuffed with money to keep Chrysler alive, Ford (F) has garnered a reputation of being an "underdog, a fighter and a winner," says Bernie McGinn, chief investment officer of McGinn, McKean & O’Neill in Alexandria, Va. Not only does Ford have a stress-tested chief executive in Alan Mulally (he flew Boeing (BA) through the turbulence following Sept. 11), but the company was wise enough to borrow all the money it needs right before the credit markets seized up last fall. "Ford could pull back, but not past $5," McGinn says, "and in the short term it could easily double from here. In a couple years I can make the case that it will go to the low $20s."

Digital Conversion Deals: Save on a New TV (Deal of the Day)

Television stations across the nation are switching their broadcast signals from analog to digital Friday, giving bargain hunters a great excuse to take advantage of deals on flat screens and other TVs. Whether you're prepared for the digital conversion (cable and satellite subscribers, don't have to do a thing) or not (those still using rabbit ears either need a new TV or a conversion box), now's a good time to buy. Plenty of manufacturers and retailers are using the event to clear TVs off their shelves by offering price breaks of 30% or more, says David Berman, spokesman for the Home Theater Specialists of America, an industry group. “Father’s Day is always a pop in sales, and this year it’s strengthened by the digital transition,” says Shawn Schwegman, marketing director for web retailer AllAmericanDirect.com.

Another reason to act now: The deals being offered may be the best ones television shoppers will see in 2009, says Paul Gagnon, director of research for DisplaySearch.com, an electronics consulting group. Prices for the raw materials used to make televisions have increased in recent months, which could mean fewer or less-generous promotions during the second half of the year, he says. Some of the best deals are showing up on 42-inch displays. “That’s a sweet spot for pricing,” says Berman. At that size, you'll find both LCDs and plasmas (go larger or smaller, and it's one or the other), which has led to more price competition among manufacturers. Another deal trend: Blu-ray bundles. “Manufacturers are trying to get people to accept the new technology,” says David Wexler, co-owner of Little Guys Home Electronics in Chicago. LG, for example, is currently offering a free Blu-ray player (regularly $300) with purchase of its 47-inch 1080p LCD ($1,400) television. Here’s where some of the best deals can be had:

10 Things Your Kid's Camp Won't Tell You (10 Things) 1. “Accreditation? We don’t bother.”

According to the American Camp Association (ACA), there are currently about 7,000 overnight “sleepaway” programs to choose from in the U.S. And the number of day camps, where kids return home each evening, has increased 90 percent since the 1980s, to roughly 5,000 today—in large part because they’re now offering extended day sessions to meet parents’ needs and are accepting younger children. But picking the right camp for your kid can be daunting: Of the 12,000 or so options, only about 2,400 have ACA accreditation, a voluntary process in which the camp meets more than 300 different standards. (Visit the organization’s website, www .acacamps.org, for its “Find a Camp” database of accredited programs.) While other, nonaccredited camps may be perfectly legitimate options, you’ll need to do a little more homework to be sure. First, check out the Web directory KidsCamps.com, where you can search a database of camps based on geography and interests. To get a better feel for how a camp operates, call its director and ask about staff screening procedures—whether the camp does background checks—and its staff return rates (anything over 50 percent is good). Then ask about the staff-to-camper ratio: Look for 1-to-4 for very young kids and 1-to-8 for older campers. And make sure the camp has a state permit or license that requires it to meet minimum safety requirements. Most important, get references from a prospective camp. “Ask for people in your hometown,” advises Christopher Thurber, a New Hampshire psychologist and coauthor of The Summer Camp Handbook. “That means they can’t handpick the people you talk to.” 2. “We pay for referrals.”

Camp advisory services, which advertise online or in the yellow pages, can help streamline the process of choosing a camp by doing the legwork for you. They tend to be long-standing momand- pop operations, and they’re free. Jill Tipograph, founder and director of Everything Summer, says she keeps records on more than 2,000 camps and teen programs around the world. “Parents don’t know if these programs are safe or what their reputation is,” Tipograph says. “They prefer to work with programs we have been sending children to.” These companies have to make money somehow, however, and guess who pays? The camps. That’s not to imply that all advisers recommend only camps that pay them. Tipograph, for one, says she has referred parents to nonclient programs. You should ask advisers how they charge: If they’re paid a set fee, regardless of how many referrals a camp gets, that’s good. If they’re paid based on how many kids they refer, that’s less reassuring. When you contact a camp, ask about its relationship with the adviser who sent you, just to double-check. 3. “We might not be the right camp for your kid.”

In an effort to attract business, some camps can be notorious about flipflopping on their supposed “philosophies,” says one East Coast camp official. “I’ve called up camp X and said, ‘My kid is Jewish. How religious are you? [Because] my kid hates services.’ And they say, ‘Oh, he’ll be perfect here.’ And then we call again and say, ‘How religious is the camp? My kid is very religious,’ and they say the same thing.” Specialty camps, a fast-growing area, can be big culprits. Naoko Halloran realized she’d made a mistake in choosing the art day camp her then nearly fiveyear- old son went to in Maui. “He was the youngest one there and found the day too long,” she says. While her son came home with some “amazing” oil paintings, Halloran says he felt lost “hanging out with 10-year-olds.” To avoid such misunderstandings, be honest in evaluating your child’s personality, and be sure to check the referrals a camp provides. Ask, “How would you describe the typical kid at this camp?” According to Stacy DeBroff, author of Sign Me Up! The Parents’ Complete Guide to Sports, Activities, Music Lessons, Dance Classes, and Other Extracurriculars, “Matching the culture of the camp to the personality of your child is the formula for success, period.” 4. “And you thought getting your kid into Harvard would be tough.”

Camp registration rates have been growing steadily for years: In 2005 a record 10 million children attended day or resident camp, according to the American Camp Association. As a result, it’s become increasingly difficult to get your kid into his camp of choice. “The entire period of time for signing up has shifted dramatically,” says Laurel Barrie, who owns camp advisory company the Camp Connection. Some camps fill up as early as August of the previous summer. Philip Margolis, of Glastonbury, Conn., found that out the hard way a few years ago, when he and his wife decided to send their then eight-year-old son, Jacob, to an overnight camp affiliated with their temple. They registered one or two weeks before the camp’s March 1 deadline, but their son’s age-group was already full. “Jacob’s enthusiasm after hearing the camp’s presentation [less than two months earlier] made our first decision easy,” he says. “When he didn’t get in, we had to go back to the drawing board.” Still, if you get stuck registering close to a deadline, don’t panic. “There are plenty of camps available,” says Nancy LaPook Diamond, president of KidsCamps.com, “but act quickly.” For best results, start researching camps by January 1 and make appointments to visit camps in early April, advises Barrie, before the more common deadline of late May. But what to do if your first-choice camp is already full? Ask that camp’s director what other programs he or she recommends; then, if need be, get on wait lists at your preferred camps. Registered kids often change their minds about attending. 5. “We’ll put your Little Leaguer through the grinder.”

The most popular alternatives to traditional camps these days are sports specialty camps. But for kids who don’t have NBA or Olympic dreams—and abilities to match—many may be too hard-core. Several summers ago Dayna Bergman, a stay-at-home mom in Bucks County, Pa., was a chaperone at the cheerleading camp her then 11-year-old daughter’s school squad attended. It turned out that the camp, chosen by the school coaches, was geared toward high school girls who were serious athletes. “They were getting up at 7 a.m. and working out until they couldn’t walk,” Bergman says. “The kids weren’t very happy.” Before registering your child at a sports camp, ask the director to describe a typical day and the level of competition. “Say, ‘If my child is tired at 4 o’clock because he’s been playing lacrosse for five hours, can he sit down?’” suggests Rick Echlov, former summer programs director for Babson College in Wellesley, Mass., which runs 17 camp sessions of one to three weeks for soccer, basketball, baseball, and other sports. “The answer might be, ‘No, he’ll be in the middle of a game.’” Also, ask who’s going to be coaching your kids. Many sports camps feature a former college or pro athlete or a big-name coach. Stars attract a huge enrollment, which means your kid may get little face time with a featured athlete. Make sure that whoever works with your kid most of the time is more than an enthusiastic counselor and is a coach with solid experience and training. 6. “Our add-ons really add up.”

The basic cost of camp can range from reasonable to resortlike. Tuition at an accredited day camp ranges from $100 to $300 per week, according to the ACA, and overnight camps run about $597 per week. The median rate for overnight camps in New England is the highest, costing $780 per week. But more often than not, costs don’t end at tuition. Stacy DeBroff thought the $6,000 she paid to send her then nineyear- old son to a seven-week overnight camp would include everything, so she was shocked, to say the least, when she received a catalog of required clothing—including camp-logo T-shirts, sweatshirts, mesh shorts, and sports jerseys. “The required uniform included 17 things!” she says. “It added about $300.” Another unexpected extra: a $30 fee to have the camp print out the e-mails she sent her son. KidsCamps.com’s Diamond advises parents to ask about extra fees before booking. Activities and extras often not included under tuition, she says, are swimming lessons, horseback riding, transportation, uniforms, and even food. 7. “Our prices are negotiable.”

Struggling to afford camp for your kids this summer? Try asking for a discount. In a recent survey by the ACA, 49 percent of accredited camps reported offering campers some level of financial assistance. Called “camperships” in the industry, discounts often depend on income; some camps provide partial camperships because of a family medical crisis or if a parent is in the military. Ask about these as soon as you begin contacting camps. Even if you don’t qualify for aid, many camps offer discounts of 5 to 10 percent for early registration, full-season enrollment, or enrollment of multiple family members. Marci Rose, an artist and mother of three in Churchville, Pa., saved $300 off a $6,800 tab by signing her daughter up for camp on visiting day during the previous summer. Because her other daughter was attending, too, Rose got an additional $400 “sibling” discount. 8. “Your kid could get sick here—really sick.”

Poison ivy rashes, head lice, and sore throats are staples of camp infirmaries. Make sure your kid’s camp is equipped to handle such basics. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that overnight camps with more than 50 kids have an onsite registered nurse with access to a supervising M.D. But whenever groups of kids get together, more serious ailments can become an issue. When Nancy Springer sent her then 14-year-old son, Nick, to an overnight camp in Massachusetts, he contracted meningococcal meningitis after sharing a water bottle with campmates, including one who was an uninfected carrier. “We sent a healthy child away to summer camp,” Springer says. “Two weeks later he was on life support.” In a move that probably saved the boy’s life, the camp’s doctor recognized the purple rash, started Nick on an IV of the right antibiotic, and called an ambulance. Other campers haven’t been so fortunate: In 2002, a 12-year-old Oklahoma girl who was diagnosed with bacterial meningitis after attending a Girl Scout camp in Joplin, Mo., died. While cases of meningitis are rare, the conditions at camps—sharing close living quarters as well as food, water bottles, utensils, and even lip balm—put kids at greater risk for the disease. What can parents do? Tell your child not to share such personal items, and consider having him vaccinated. Menactra, manufactured by Sanofi Pasteur, protects against four of the most common strains of meningitis. For more information, visit the National Meningitis Association’s website at www.nmaus.org. 9. “Our values aren’t the same as yours.”

When one New York mom received a phone call from her daughter’s camp director saying they had a serious disciplinary problem, she was shocked—until she heard what the problem was. “She got in trouble for writing her name in toothpaste on the bathroom mirror, which I didn’t think was such a terrible thing to do,” the mom says. The camp disagreed, considering it harming public property. “She was really demonized by the authority figures,” the mom continues. “She was docked from evening activities and had it marked on her camp records. She was in tears.” Rule breakers—no matter how silly the infractions may seem to parents—are often sent home, so make sure you know the rules ahead of time and that you feel comfortable with the repercussions. What happens, for instance, if your kid raids the girls’ cabin or gets caught using a cell phone? If the offense is bad enough for him to be sent home—hazing and drinking are two obvious ousters—parents can get punished too, at least financially. “If you bring certain things to our camp,” like fireworks, says David Phillips, president of Maryland’s Capital Camps & Retreat Center, “you’re going home, and you’re not getting your money back.” 10. “Your kid’s homesick? He looks okay to us.”

A whopping 95 percent of kids who go to overnight camp feel some degree of homesickness, says New Hampshire psychologist Christopher Thurber. But chances are you won’t hear about that from directors. “Camps want to help kids adjust,” he says, “but they’re hesitant to bring [homesickness] up, because that doesn’t sell slots.” Thurber recommends that families prepare for separation by having the child practice spending time away—at a sleepover, say—and honing coping skills. But also ask your prospective camps about parent-child communication policies before booking. Most resident camps allow few or no phone calls, “and that’s a good thing,” Thurber says. In case it’s needed, make sure the camp provides counseling you approve of should your kid end up with more than just a day or so of the blues. “Some camps provide [staffers with] specialized training in homesickness and adjustment, but others don’t,” Thurber says. Specifically, counselors should be able to recognize signs of distress and be trained in talking to kids about homesickness. Just don’t expect them to offer any consoling hugs. Fearing accusations of inappropriate behavior, Thurber says, “many camps are training their staff not to hug kids. Some think the only acceptable touch is a pat on the shoulder or a high five.” SMARTMONEY ® Layout and look and feel of SmartMoney.com are trademarks of SmartMoney, a joint venture between Dow Jones & Company, Inc. and Hearst SM Partnership. © 1995 - 2009 SmartMoney.

7 Ways to Save at an Amusement Park (Deal of the Day)

Consumers sick of riding this year's bumpy economic roller coaster can find great deals on the real thing at amusement parks nationwide. Declining attendance has parks slashing prices at the gate. Wet N’ Wild Orlando, for instance, is currently advertising its “best deal ever” -- unlimited visits to the park during 2009, for the regular single-day pass price of $45. (That's half the price of its regular annual season pass.) Southern California residents can snag a three-day pass to Disneyland at a special rate of $99, compared with $180 for other visitors. In fact, discounts on admission are pretty much standard these days. "There's typically so much discounting going on at parks that few people actually pay the gate price," says John Gerner, managing director of Leisure Business Advisors LLC, a Richmond, Va.-based consulting group. Cheaper admission prices are a good start for families watching their wallets, but savvy consumers can cut costs even further by using a few smart moves. Here's how: Visit on weekdays Saturdays are amusement parks' busiest days, so many offer discounts for weekday attendees, says David Mandt, spokesman for the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions, a trade group. Through June 11, Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio, is offering a $30 pass to those who visit on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday (regularly admission would cost $44), while Wet 'n Wild knocks $40 off the price of its season pass (regularly $90) if you opt for weekday access only. Buy online Ticket prices on the web are often 35% cheaper, plus you'll save time waiting in line. Online-only promotions are also plentiful this year — because the date-specific tickets let parks estimate headcount, they can cut overhead on slow days, says Robert Niles, editor of ThemeParkInsider.com. Buy online at Knott’s Berry Farm in Buena Park, Calif., and you’ll save $17 off the regular $52 one-day pass. Stick to one park With plenty to see and do — and long lines for everything — aiming to visit multiple parks in one day is overly ambitious for many people, says Danielle Courtnay, spokeswoman for the Orlando/Orange County Convention & Visitors Bureau. Save with a single park pass for short visits. At Walt Disney World, a one-day, one-park ticket is $75, while a one-day Park Hopper is $125. You’ll save $50. Arrive late in the day Arrive at the park once the afternoon rush has dispersed, and you can easily save 20% or more with so-called twilight entry passes, says Mandt. Knott's Berry Farm cuts its ticket price in half after 4 p.m., which gives you four to seven hours in the park. Clip coupons Look for amusement park coupons on the groceries you buy, and at the restaurants you frequent. Coca-Cola (KO) is offering two-for-one weekday admission or $15 off weekend admission to Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, N.J., on specially-marked cans. Get a season pass Season passes typically pay for themselves in just two visits, and offer additional value through freebies and special access, says Niles. Six Flags Great Adventure's 3-Park Combo season pass for 2009 costs $130 and includes free passes for a friend on specific dates, free access to 15 other Six Flags parks nationwide and $300 worth of in-park coupons. The $100 VIP season pass for 2009 at King's Dominion in Doswell, Va., provides first-in-line ride access, early entry to the attached water park, half-price deals for friends and free, specially-designated parking. Check your wallet Employers, banks, professional organizations and clubs may offer discounts or specially-priced tickets. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill offers employees $34 tickets to Carowinds (regularly $47), and a $20 discount at Six Flags Over Georgia ($40). Even your driver's license may be helpful in securing a deal. Walt Disney World offers Florida residents discounts on both daily tickets and annual passes. A seven-day park hopper would be $238 — $40 cheaper than out-of-state visitors pay.

Energy ETFs Continue Their Run (Daily ETF Wrap-Up) Market Wrap-Up Stocks showed more sideways movement Thursday, with a triple-digit intraday gain disappearing in the last hour of trading. Regardless, the S&P 500 hit a 2009 high of 945. During the session the yield on the 30-year Treasury fell to 4.69% after its Thursday auction, sparking worries that the roots of an economic recovery could be pulled loose by concerns over inflation. A 0.5% uptick in retail sales was the first positive move in three months, though that was largely due to higher gas prices. Initial jobless claims ebbed slightly for the week, but unemployment could remain above 9% though next year. The Fed said U.S. households lost a total net worth of $1.33 trillion in the first quarter, a 2.6% decline. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 31 points to close at 8770.

Mortgage Insurers to the Rescue? (Consumer Action)

Homeowners in trouble may find help from an unlikely source: their private mortgage insurance company. Typically, homeowners turn to nonprofit housing counseling services or even paid “mortgage fixers” (not a good idea) to help them renegotiate better, more affordable terms on their mortgage. But the credit crunch and the large numbers of folks in need of financial help have caused those avenues to clog up. Homeowners who've tried unsuccessfully to get help, may have one more opportunity to get back on their feet by turning to their private mortgage insurer. Private mortgage insurance (not to be confused with homeowners insurance) is required of anyone who buys a home with less than a 20% down payment. These policies protect the lender in the event of a default, covering anywhere between 12% and 35% of their losses on the property, says Keith Gumbinger, vice president at mortgage information firm HSH Associates. With more homeowners facing the threat of losing their homes to foreclosure -- and more defaulting clients to cover -- mortgage insurance companies are stepping in to help them stay put. “As a mortgage insurance company we stand in the borrower’s shoes,” says Michael Zimmerman, senior vice president of investor relations at MGIC Investment (MTG), a mortgage insurer.“If the borrower loses the home to foreclosure, we have to pay.” Walnut Creek, Calif.-based PMI Group (PMI), for example, now offers no-interest loans to help certain borrowers catch up on defaulted mortgage payments. Genworth Financial (GNW) offers a job-loss protection feature in its policies that pays up to $2,000 per month towards the mortgage payment of a homeowner for six months after losing their job. And if a homeowner qualifies for a loan modification under the government’s Making Home Affordable program, but can't get their loan servicer to help, Genworth may step in to process the paperwork and streamline it to the servicer for approval. Granted, getting help from your private mortgage insurer – the name of the company should be listed in your mortgage documents – requires that you meet a rigorous set of requirements. For example, to qualify for PMI Group’s “Saving Homeownership and Repayment Program,” which covers a homeowner’s delinquent home payments with an interest-free loan, borrowers must prove that their delinquency was a result of a temporary financial setback and that they have a good prospect of repaying the loan. They also must be able to continue making their payments, says Joel Luebkeman, a company spokesman. Genworth’s job-loss protection program is only available to those who have closed on their loan within the past three years. So anyone who bought a home before June 2006 isn’t eligible. Currently, about 10% of the company’s loans are taking advantage of that program, according to Chris Antonello, a spokesman. However, as unemployment and the costs of running such programs climb higher, further restrictions and requirements may be imposed on these programs, says Rick Gillespie, a spokesman for mortgage insurer Radian (RDN), which has offered a similar program in the past. Homeowners who have Genworth’s private mortgage insurance may find it easier to get help for a loan modification or refinancing under the government’s Making Home Affordable program. Genworth is proactively reaching out to homeowners who may qualify for the program, offering to help them complete the necessary paperwork and send it to the servicer for approval. And when it comes to Home Affordable refinancing for loans that have private mortgage insurance, the cooperation of the industry is key. In the past, a new mortgage insurance policy needed to be obtained for the loan at refinancing, says Frank Ruzicka, a mortgage banker with Cornerstone Mortgage in St. Louis. But these days, getting that insurance is much more difficult, if not impossible, especially on loans that are more than 90% of the home’s value. In fact, many homeowners who are underwater on their homes don't qualify for private mortgage insurance -- despite the fact that they may qualify for a refinancing under the government's program. In such cases, the Federal Housing Finance Agency, which regulates Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, has encouraged mortgage insurance companies to allow the transfer of a policy to the new loan. “Mortgage insurance companies are attempting to cooperate on this as best they can,” says mortgage banker Ruzicka.

China online gaming: Top advisors' top picks One month ago, we featured a special report featuring the favorite China-based stocks among financial newsletter advisors. Since then, the 14 stocks covered in the report have risen an average of more than 15%.
The performance of these stocks -- along with the overall China market -- has far exceeded the 3% gain in the S&P 500 index over the same time period. That report can be viewed here. Despite these gains, many of the leading advisors remain bullish on China; in particular, several have recently focused on the online gaming sector in Asia. Indeed, Timothy Lutts notes that while the video game market in the US is slowing, the video game market in China is expected to show 20%+ annual growth in coming year. Jim Trippon, who focuses exclusively on China-based stocks, chooses Giant Interactive (NYSE: GA) as a new buy in his long-term model portfolio. The full post can be read here.

Market Close: confidence flat, gas up Filed under: After the bell, Bank of America (BAC), S and P 500, DJIA, NASDAQ, E*TRADE (ETFC)The market spent the day as it has many a Friday in the summer: slowing going no where. The University of Michigan/Reuters consumer sentiment index showed a very modest increase in June up to 69, from 68.7 in May. The same survey showed that expectations for six months from now actually dropped. Oil and gas prices still dominated the headlines. Oil still hovers around $72 and the average price of gas rose for the 45th consecutive day to $2.63. The has to rattle consumers who have precious little discretionary income as it is. The numbers for the day did not say much: Dow 8,799.26 +28.34 (0.32%)
S&P 500 946.21 +1.32 (0.14%)

Does Kindle make Amazon a good investment idea? Filed under: Google (GOOG), Amazon.com (AMZN), Sony Corp ADR (SNE), TechnologyThere's been some news on the Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) Kindle, the company's electronic substitute for real paper books. According to this source, everything is coming along fine for the product from a statistical point of view. An estimate of Kindle sales from Citigroup Global Markets puts the number of units sold last year at 500,000. By 2010, it's said that the Kindle may lead to $1.2 billion of derivative sales. I was surprised to learn that this sales number would possibly represent 4% of Amazon's top line. This news item made me want to look back at my coverage of Amazon's latest earnings quarter. At the time, I was hesitant about considering putting new money to work into this name. While the longer-term trend of the stock was obviously quite attractive, the shorter-term trend could have been at risk.

Scribd: a threat to Amazon.com's e-book ambitions? Filed under: Amazon.com (AMZN), CBS Corp 'B' (CBS)Several times this year, I used Scribd to post my presentations on the web. It was extremely easy to use. Moreover, there were some helpful metrics (that is, the number of viewers), sharing tools and publishing options (such as PDFs, PowerPoints, etc).

Well, as should be no surprise, Scribd is getting lots of traction, attracting about 60 million unique visitors.

In fact, this week the website announced a deal with Simon & Schuster - a division of CBS (NYSE: CBS) -- to sell roughly 5,000 digital e-books. Some of the authors include Stephen King and Mary Higgins Clark.
