A Speculative Bet on a Pro When He's Down

Aug 09, 2007 03:10 PM GMT

Fundamental Analysis   Favorable/Unfavorable Valuation  

SHLD seems to be stabilizing around $130 mark. This is the time to bet on a Pro like Eddie Lampert. You don't buy into the hype when Wall St's going ga-ga and saying he's the next Warren Buffet. You give him the benefit of the doubt when he's down.

Mr. Lampert has certainly earned that with his past performance. He may be a hedge fund manager, but he's no fly by the seat of your pants trader. I believe he knows what he's doing.

This is a speculative pick for me because:
1. It's a retailer. And a crappy one at that. These are hard businesses to run, nevermind turn around.
2. I'm not so confident about the real estate assets either.

Eddie has consistently said that he will runs Sears as a profitable business and I do believe he will. He already turned Kmart and Sears cash flow positive and I believe he will find ways to achieve high returns on those cash flows.

Know its Monogram placement:? Louis Vuitton has been in production since 1854!? Their style is classic, and quality- phenomenal!? The traditional Monogram Toile canvas that is so popular today- had its beginnings in 1896.? The monogram itself can give clues as to authenticity.? Louis Vuitton is very careful about the way that the monogram is placed on any piece.? Most of its styles are the same today as they were when they first came out- with a few exceptions.? The actual LV monogram is usually (with the exception of some vintage pieces) symetrical from side to side in all monogram styles (traditional, Multicolore, Cerises, Mini mono, Vernis etc.) as you can see in this Louis Vuitton Speedy (notice where the LVs are in relation to the handles, sides, quatrefoils etc)... louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,prada outlet,louis vuitton outlet,burberry outlet,hermes outlet,hermes outlet,louis vuitton outlet,hermes outlet online,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,chanel handbags,chanel sunglasses,louis vuitton outlet,louis vuitton outlet,gucci bags on sale,gucci watches,gucci shoes.by lina
