NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Board directors for companies in the Standard & Poor's 500 index gave themselves, on average, an 11% raise in 2008 for a total compensation of $2 million per company, according to preliminary data from the Corporate Library on Wednesday.

This article continues a series on the companies in the Wise Energy Use index. I believe that the current turmoil has given stock pickers an opportunity to buy well capitalized firms which make money by helping people save money on energy. The industry is poised to do well in hard financial times, but companies with weak balance sheets or poor liquidity may not survive.
In this series, I try to separate the wheat from the chaff. ...
I have not done well in the markets for the last six weeks. Here is why:
Overweight in Life Insurers. Yes, they are in better shape than the banks, but that only means they got hit later, not that they would not get hit.
Too much economic sensitivity. I felt that global demand would hold up better than US demand, but that only means they got hit later, not that they would not get hit.
I suspect that hedge funds have been blowing out my positions.
Dylan Ratigan began the show with a discussion of the credit markets which acted a little bit better today. Value investor Karen Finerman said it's very hard to find values in a market like this, because valuations change within hours. She says "valuations we're seeing right now are extraordinary if you have a longer-term outlook." Pete Najarian said, "The market made an amazing run higher even with volatility at new highs." He told viewers to look for some value plays even if you have to reduce the earnings yourself.
Honeywell (HON) reported third quarter profit gains of 16% on revenue of $9.3 billion which was also an increase of 6%. Shares are trading down more than 7% because the company narrowed guidance and lowered their full year revenue forecast. For those that follow HON, this should not be a surprise as the stock has been crushed already by these recession fears. Honeywell — down 51% year to date — has performed far worse than most of its diversified industrial peers which have fallen 24% on average. Furthermore, this recession has been on the mind of...
Pilgrim's Pride near end of line. Burdened by a heavy debt load, Pilgrim's Pride (PPC) may be forced to seek bankruptcy protection which could be used to help expedite a sale of the company, sources say. A company spokesman said Friday PPC does not expect to file for protection, and is focused on developing a plan to meet the financial and operational challenges currently facing Pilgrim's Pride and the broader industry.

The credit crisis has shifted emphasis back to the importance of a strong balance sheet, something many investors willfully forgot about during the bull market through 2007. Those same investors, who once urged CEOs to take on debt to buy back stock, are now focused on upcoming debt maturities and refinancing fears. With the markets taking a bruising and most major stocks now valued at less than 10 times estimated 2008 earnings, this could be a historical opportunity to buy stocks at bargain-basement prices and wait for a recovery. Barron's Andrew Bary highlights twenty-five cash-rich companies that patient...
The massive global sell-off in, well, everything, continues to impact investments made in the aerospace, defense, and homeland security sector.
With the market operating in uncharted territories, I’m now hearing commentators refer to the Panic of 1907 as the only corollary, it is hard to near impossible to provide a commentary that the market will bear out. With gyrations that can influence prices 5%, 10%, 20% in a single day without reasons other than the fear that has entered the market, discussing the underlying fundamentals almost seems trivial.

most relative disappointment in 2009 and 2010 at Dover and Emerson."
