It's 13F filing time again. Institutional money managers who oversee more than $100 million must report their holdings to the SEC each quarter in their 13F report. These reports can be used to analyze the position movements of the best fund managers in the industry. Sometimes they can even be used to figure out the manager’s current strategy, but keep in mind the funds that I am going to review are most likely hedged in some way. Also keep in mind that not every position held is shown in these filings and many of these funds have high turnover; so...
The technology sector has been one of the worst performing in recent weeks. Many big tech companies like Tyco (TYC), and Intel (INTC) are slashing outlooks. I run fundamental stock screeners for big technology stocks included in the S&P 500.
For market capitalization above five bln USD and P/E valuation below ten, the results show ten big tech companies listed below:
Europe's funding risks. Over the next three years, around $2.1T of European corporate and bank debt will mature, creating 'substantial refinancing risk,' according to Standard & Poor's. After the collapse of Lehman Brothers, new bond issues are virtually frozen, leaving companies in a difficult position when it comes time to raise new debt to pay off maturing bonds. In Europe specifically, S&P reports, funding pressures have 'escalated sharply since September as stress in the global financial system accelerated.' Euro-denominated senior bank debt is being offered at spreads close to 225 basis points...

Since it was introduced in 1993, the VIX, often known as the fear index, has never seen levels like the recent record closing of 79 and intraday high of 90. At 90, the VIX implies an expected 25% change in stock prices in the next month, according to JP Morgan equity strategist Thomas J. Lee.
“Whether this is fund selling in front of redemptions, or some other factor, we have no visibility,” he told clients. But with investors clearly remaining risk-averse...
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.
It’s been following the market almost exactly, rising and falling with the Dow, until two weeks ago, when shares of Tyco (NYSE:TYC) began a headlong crash, plummeting more than 26% in less than 11 trading days.
If you’re looking for a news-related collapse, you won’t find one here. The only thing Tyco has done in the last month was register to sell "from time to time an indeterminate amount of debt securities, preference shares, common shares, purchase contracts, depositary shares, warrants, units and guarantees of debt securities" (thank you, Dow Jones and Reuters for...
What if you don't want to spend your retirement managing and worrying about your portfolio? Put it on Auto Pilot, specifically on a Dividend Investing Auto Pilot. Dividends from a quality, well-diversified portfolio are much more predictable than capital gains and best of all, they are passive.

Not to worry, the good companies routinely raise their dividends well in excess of the inflation rate. Below are several select companies that recently decided to help their...

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Tyco International Ltd. on Tuesday forecast fiscal first-quarter earnings from continuing operations and after excluding items in the range of 46 cents to 49 cents a share. Analysts polled by FactSet Research expected earnings of 63 cents a share, on average. The Bermuda-based manufacturer said it expects a less favorable currency exchange and higher corporate expenses to take a 12 cents-a-share bite out of the quarter when compared to the year-earlier period. For 2009, Tyco said its electrical and metal products unit could pull down company profit by about 38 cents a share. "While this...
