2/20/13 Steamrolled!



Wow. I was on the road all day, and just getting around to checking closing prices now. Gold down as much as another -$45/oz today. GDX/ GDXJ -5% or so to 37.45/ 15.82, both on >3x average volume. RYPMX down another -5.31% to 51.14! Paulson's no longer vertical, I last spotted him crawling out the front door with a silly grin. Hussman, on the other hand, had a great day, and we've upgraded to the 18-year Glenfiddich!

      There will be disappointment if this market gets pushed out, which could be the cause of FIO's wows? Not only that, but Samsung is probably a fierce competitor in flash?

      Has JB heard of a company called "Box", www.box.com, they're supposedly growing leaps and bounds and may put the hurt on others in the space?

      Anyway, I can send the report if ya wanna see it.

      Steel: (NUE PO=$49)

  13. Hanging out with the gold bugs last night. No sign of worry there.

    Will buy more as the price drops as the U.S. is in big trouble with their debt and gold will explode to the upside, just not sure when. I asked about the fact that the bull trend seems to be ending for the first time in over a decade (the death cross, breaking the 2 year MA, etc). They said that this is just shaking out the weak hands and momo guys, so only the real believers will be on board when the move comes.

If people sell-off because their forecast is down due to a 1-time tax increase, when the business is still very well run, revenues, earnings and dividends are increasing, they are even more short-term oriented than I thought they are.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Including the assumption of debt, the deal is valued at $4.3 billion.
      Under the deal's terms, LinnCo (LNCO:$36.99,00$-0.01,00-0.03%) --which was formerly a unit of Linn Energy (LINE:$36.65,00$0.24,000.66%) before its initial public offering last year--is offering 1.25 of its shares for each share of Berry, translating into a per-share price of about $46.24 for Berry's shareholders, a 20% premium to Wednesday's close. Shares climbed 14% to $44 in light premarket trading.
      Linn Energy (LINE:$36.65,00$0.24,000.66%) noted Berry's long-life, low-decline, mature assets are "an excellent fit" and the acquisition will increase Linn Energy's (LINE:$36.65,00$0.24,000.66%) presence in California, the Permian Basin, East Texas, and the Rockies, as well as adding an attractive new core area in the Uinta Basin.
      Linn Energy (LINE:$36.65,00$0.24,000.66%) also said the deal will increase its current production by 30%. Given that Berry's reserves are about 75% oil, Linn Energy (LINE:$36.65,00$0.24,000.66%) said the deal results in an increase in liquids exposure to 54% from 46% of proved reserves as of the end of 2012

    2. interesting question - I consider Box like CRM so to the extent end users will move away from on-prem/platform to pure browser then yes I think Box wins (to me VMW is more similar to ORCL than Box, as it provides cloud infrastructure and Box provides cloud storage, etc, etc directly to co's and end users). I've used Box and it is very simple to use yet powerful.

      Delete
    3. Ah, yes, not same thing but maybe siblings. BOX takes over cloud services and uses something other than VMW then VMW dies on vine, is the pic in my head.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Not sure about the day to day activities but the reason I've decided to shift my thinking a bit longer term, granted at pretty bad timing but then again I've been long for a few years barring a few brief trips to the dark side, is this:

    (1) the growth in the economy is weak, no doubt, but what happens if the forces bringing it down turn around?
    (2) Consider housing continuing its rebound and the impact it has on the broader economy. Not only does it provide a benefit to homeowners looking to sell, but most importantly it helps banks whose leverage in housing is enormous
    (3) What happens if Europe actually has a return to growth?
    (4) Japan - it's been a drag for years. Any boost there will help.
    (5) Government sector has been a drag for a couple of years now. We see it in all of the monthly jobs reports. Yet still jobs growth has been fairly strong.
    (6) I keep looking at this table that I've posted here a few times:
    http://pages.stern.nyu.edu/~adamodar/New_Home_Page/datafile/spearn.htm

    Aside from a brief period in the 1970s when inflation was sky high and interest rates were too, the earnings yield on the entire market is pretty favorable. Think about what the impact on earnings would be if (2)(3), and (4) take hold. I can envision a scenario where earnings go up 20 to 25% over 2 to 3 years and the S&P trades at 17 times earnings. Do the math and you get the S&P to well over 2,000.

    I know this is all bigger picture stuff that plays out over time. But I just feel like staying long stocks is the right thing to do. The sentiment readings we get spoon fed to us are definitely not indicative to me of what the average person feels. Perfect example is my father-in-law. I had a conversation with him over the weekend and he admits to knowing nothing about the markets. He asked me how it was possible that the stock market is doing well if the economy sucks. This kind of sentiment is pervasive throughout our country and to me it says that we're nowhere near the kind of sentiment you see at the top of bull markets. Maybe this time is different, but I think it and the points above continue to point toward higher prices after we go through this pullback.

    Granted, I still have 25 years until i'm officially allowed to retire so my time horizon is longer, but I just think its wise to always look at stocks as the only viable option for long term wealth creation, aside from owning your own business.

    1. I don't agree with the sentiment readings either, my take is people are considerably more positive. Of course things still haven't fully recovered since "The Rifleman" went off air.

      Delete
    2. So much you read nowadays is about sentiment, but reality is that fundamentals drive prices in the long term and I do think fundamentals look good. You're getting more and more latent demand in the system (cars, housing, etc) which will drive future sales, which in turn drives job growth and things continue to improve. Plus, if things start to slow, the Fed will psuh to keep things moving forward.

      Delete
    3. (1) I think cheap liquidity and devalued currency has it's day, sooner or later.
      (2) RE may be driven right now by hedge funds and rentals, but this has been and will always be, a confidence game. This AM on the local news they talked about the housing numbers and the correspondent (news script reader) said "this is a warning to home buyers, prices could spike up in the next year". CNBC/Cramer et al. eat your hearts out, everyone is doing it now.
      (3) The confidence game isn't limited to certain continents, they all do it.
      (4) Yen shmen. Look at that chart. Ski jump anyone?
      (5) The one weak spot because of the ideology battle. As soon as people get sick from uninspected beef or there is a terrorist attack due to TSA layoffs all bets are off.
      (6) The thing that sticks out most to me is how the S&P over 14XX doesn't hold. I'm all for it sticking this time but I'm in show me mode.

      I am mindful that valuations are not inflation adjusted, but that doesn't mean I'm not hopeful. It's the only game in town besides your provided caveats...stocks and business ownership.

  45. weird...TZOO continues to hang in there despite a few body blows. I did see that GRPN got upgraded and I saw rumors about LivingSocial getting some really bad terms on its recent fund raising. Since TZOO operates in this space on the higher end, perhaps it is benefitting from this. I still don't understand why this isn't bought out by a larger travel site. They generate a ton of traffic relative to their market cap and the buyer could just redirect all of their traffic onto their own site and funnel the visitors through their own booking platforms. The company trades at 1/2 the valuation of all other internet travel companies and 1/2 the valuation of GRPN. Yet it has the best free cash flow, relatively, and the best balance sheet (in terms of net cash vs market cap). They're going to be launching a new hotel booking platform in the summer/fall that could be a nice driver of growth in 2014. And to top it off, if Europe ever gets going, they do generate like 30% of their revenues from Europe.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. There are so many holes in the customer conversion process on TZOO's site and the fact that it can generate the level of cash flow it currently does tells you just how many people they have coming to their site and on their mailing list (26 million or so). Think about these things:

      (1) they redirect anyone looking to book travel to other travel sites through their own subsidiary, Fly.com. Do a search on that site and you get directed to EXPE, PCLN, etc. A buyer of TZOO would be able to just direct all of that traffic to their own site.

      (2) As unbelievable as it sounds, right now if you see a deal on your phone with a coupon code, you can't click on the link and have that code carried over to the site you can book the deal on. instead you have to call up TZOO to take advantage of the coupon code. talk about missed opportunities (the company addressed it on their last CC).

      (3) Just as crazy: if see a good deal for a hotel yet the deal isn't available on the dates that you want to book, you have no way of booking a stay at that hotel on TZOO. you have to contact the hotel directly and TZOO misses out on the revenues. Again, this was addressed by the company on its last CC.

      My thinking is if they can get any of this leaking traffic to do business with them, revenues can grow modestly. Their cost structure is ridiculous: they have 90% gross margins. A 10% increase in revenues would yield an additional $0.85 in gross profit per share. The company is buying back stock pretty furiously...they bought back around $7 or $8 million just last quarter (about 2.5% of outstanding shares)...so if they can generate decent positive rev growth and continue buying back shares, EPS could skyrocket. And if Europe improves and/or other players in the deals space bow out, you could see it back up to the $100 level by the end of next year...

    2. Right now I have 35% of my port in this and YRCW...I'm underwater on both...but I believe both have the potential to go up at least 3 times their current price over the next 18 months.

    5. The one I am thinking of buying is Trip Advisor (TRIP). It's market cap is 20 times TZOO's, but 1/3 of LinkedIn, but I think they have a much better chance to monitize things long term than LinkedIn.

      Delete
    6. BB - Sales is the wrong measure. Look at things like traffic relative to market cap, cash flow relative to market cap, earnings relative to market cap. On all three counts TZOO is about 50% cheaper than the rest of its competitors, excluding OWW which has a mountain of debt (I actually like OWW).

    8. Ah you know me, it's the charts. You may get your chance though, SNE has been trading down for 11 trading days. That's right on the line of trend change. Hopefully this action (overall) is just a mild pullback and we head higher. I'm not interested in making major decisions right here.....

  48. afternoon fellas

    Let's see what silly things i did today

    first bot 1000 shares of vxx on 1/18 at 24.45, since then i've been either 1000 or 500 shares long at the end of the day, 6 trades total for ...... about $150 of profit. It wasn't worth it. way too volatile for me for that size. Next time I'll go with 200 shares max. It looks like its set up to go higher but i need to step away from that one for a bit.

    Bot 50 CF at 199.70, stops in at 184.70, first target at 214.70. This trade is more about buying CF around the 200 day and managing my money. I'm willing to loose $750, not like last year where this trade cost me about 5k or so.

    bot 100 RNF at 39.68, this is a long term hold, i'd take a bigger loss on this one but instead of setting a stop, i'm going to enter a price alert around $35ish

    sold 500 tvix at 4.77 that i bot at 4.56, just wanted to reduce my exposure above breakeven. still have 500 shares and I will use a stop at 3.97

  51. For you TZOO guys, almost all of the hotel stocks are reporting good numbers for Q4, ahead of last year, often beating estimates and a number of dividend raises.

    Shows the consumer is getting better and travel picking up. These stocks are cyclically oriented and business improves with the economy, so stocks linked to this industry like TZOO (and TRIP) should benefit.

    The hotels stocks have all moved well the last 3 months, so may be a little late there, but I think playing the rebounding consumer in general, works well for 2013.

    2. "Headwinds likely to persist" - "Light Q1 & 2013 guidance; lowering estimates
      Mgmt provided initial 2013 rev/EBITDA midpoint guidance of $124.0mn/$12.1mn,
      below Street at $143.7mn/$18.3mn. Guidance likely reflects headwinds from
      consumer adoption of mobile devices and suboptimal positioning on Windows 8.
      We are lowering 13/14 rev ests to $124.4mn/$130.9mn from $142.3mn/$159.7mn
      while EBITDA ests go to $12.1mn/$14.9mn from $19.3mn/$26.2mn. There could
      be upside to our ests ($50mn+ in rev) if Synacor were to sign AT&T from Yahoo!
      in 2H13 but we note the deal would likely be announced until mid-2014.
      Lowering to Underperform while taking PO to $5
      We see Synacor as an investment on the rise of TV viewing on the web and still
      like Synacor’s opportunity for a transformative customer win (such as AT&T) to
      positively transform the model. Despite these desirable characteristics, we
      believe headwinds will likely persist and are lowering our rating to Underperform.
      We are taking our PO to $5 (from $9) based on 7x our lowered 2014 EV/EBITDA
      est, a discount to media peers but warranted given high customer concentration."
