companies expect greatest growth matters number overweight percent represent sector tech weight year
Don't expect 86 percent this year on the tech stocks, ... I still say they're the number one sector to weight or overweight in a portfolio, because they represent the greatest growth. Your companies at 8-to-10 percent are languishing. Companies with earnings, who cares. It's a 100 times earnings. It's 30 percent growth that matters in this market.
average below bit minor percent
With McDonald's you get a minor dividend of 1 percent and right now, where it's trading, around a 13, 14 price-to-earnings ratio, it is very reasonable, ... A little bit below the S&P average at this point.
appear break economy fed good impact measure percent picking point raising rate start
We think 3.5 percent is a good point for the Fed to take a break to measure the economy and the impact of its rate hikes. If the economy does appear to be picking up, they could start raising again.
bad behind believe bush concern eventually forget friend future growth looking market nonsense overseas percent president russia terrorism trying versus
I believe that the future of McDonald's is going to be their international growth. Let's not forget what President Bush is trying to do in Russia. Russia eventually is going to have to be our friend versus all this nonsense terrorism that's going on in the world, ... So, does the overseas market concern me? It doesn't because they are looking to marginalize that growth of 1-to-2 percent and diversify at the same time. I think the bad things are behind it and I like the stock.
commentary expected percent quarter seems
With an expected quarter percent rise, the commentary seems a little more hawkish than expected.
beyond bias five move next percent question resistance three
The next three percent move for the S&P could be up, and that would take us to important resistance levels. The question is what is the bias beyond that, what is the next five percent for the market? That's not clear.
bought branches fleet gains next percent stock
They bought a lot of branches from Fleet, when they merged with Fleet Boston, ... I think you can look for 30 percent gains in that stock for the next two year.
below bullish concerned drop economy numbers percent report saw slowing support today
The productivity numbers today (Thursday) and tomorrow's (Friday's) report do nothing to support a bullish market. I would be concerned if we saw the unemployment drop below 4 percent because that would show the economy is not slowing down.
accepted behind best clean companies earnings fact forecasts gotten growth half handful name percent quarter scenes season second stocks surface totally year
We've accepted the fact that the earnings growth for the quarter is around 20, 21 percent year-over-year for the S&P. But there's been this behind the scenes look or under the surface look at revenue. And we haven't got the best of forecasts for the second half of the year in many companies going forward. And if you don't have that pristine look -- where you come in this earnings season totally clean -- you've gotten battered. And I can't even name more than a handful of stocks that have come through.
change dominated expect federal percentage quarter reserve trading waiting
Trading is going to be dominated by waiting for the Federal Reserve Board. We still expect the Fed to go a quarter of a percentage point, and no change in language.
bank buy decent opportunity percent stocks values
They're down around 15 to 20 percent from their highs. You've got an opportunity to buy some of these bank stocks at decent values here.
maintain market percentage point quarter whether wire
I think we're going to go down to the wire whether or not it's a half-percentage point (increase). If you want to maintain market stability, a quarter percentage point could keep the market at bay.
almost good happened memorial people percent period rally summer time understanding weak
People look for the summer rally, and people have always complained - well, what happened to the summer rally - not understanding that the summer rally started the day after Memorial Day. So we really have had a very good summer rally. In the Nasdaq, it went up almost 40 percent off of the bottom. The Dow went up around 12 percent off the bottom. The S&P similarly. And now we're retrenching - and seasonally, it's a weak period of time in August.
bank earnings great growth large online past percent regional super year
I like Wells Fargo. Super regional bank, great earnings growth, around 13-14 percent year over year. They just got past their 1 millionth on-line investor, and I want to have a super regional bank or a large bank that has an online presence.
