Filed under: Chipotle Mexican Grill'A' (CMG), Akamai Technologies (AKAM), Stocks to Buy  Investors that have a time horizon longer than a couple of days are likely finding this market to be extremely difficult. The indices have been stuck in a range for months between around 1,040 and 1,130 on the S&P 500. The economic reports have been mixed and have offered very little visibility into what the future may hold. Volume has been extremely anemic in the stock market, which has contributed to the overall impression that no one has much conviction in the direction of equity prices.
While risky, it...

Sometime in 2010 this stock is projected to hit $32 a share. I've decided to buy some in the money call options on this for May $25. The options are currently selling for 3.20 BID and 3.40 ASK. I'm shooting for 3.20 or better, the stock was up on Friday so I'll wait and see what Monday brings. If the stock starts to take off then I'll probably just buy the options with a 3.60 per contract cut off. If it goes any higher than that then it's too late as far as I'm concerned. Since there's a lot of time I'll just wait for the next opportunity.

Akamai Fundamentals Remain Solid, Competitive Landscape May Ease
AKAM
-1.98%
in
1524 days
3/24 - "We believe fundamentals remains solid for Akamai and expect Q1 results to at least meet our forecasts...we believe traffic delivered on Akamai’s network is up roughly 4.9% sequentially in Q1. This compares favorably to our Q1 revenue growth forecast of 3.1%. In addition, our checks indicate that while pricing continues to decline on a year-over-year basis, the rate seems to have eased in Q4 and Q1, and pricing should be relatively stable on a sequential basis in Q1."
"We believe Akamai’s victory in patent litigation against Limelight could improve the competitive landscape. Beginni...

Akamai: Eliminating Traffic Jams on the Information Superhighway

-1.98%
in

3/7 - "Analysts like Akamai's broad 1,800-member customer base, including many blue-chip companies. Further, analysts also like the fact that AKAM has continued to deliver material revenue increases and earnings gains, despite expansion/infrastructure investments.
Further, the consensus among analysts is that 28,000-server Akamai will continue to have a competitive advantage in its key business segments for at least the next two years...The risks? Analysts are keeping an eye on Akamai's convertible debt, as well as on technological change in the sector."

3/31 - "Citigroup’s John Reilly Walsh is out pounding the table on the stock today, repeating his Buy rating and advising investor to take advantage of the weakness."
"Walsh contends Akamai’s business remained strong, driven by e-commerce growth and the explosion in demand for online video. He says the stock under $30 in the past has proven to be good buying opportunity."

Apple recently updated their Apple TV to allow for video rentals directly from the Apple TV. Assuming Apple is using Akamai to serve these video streams as they do with their other iTunes Store content, this should provide a nice boost to Akamai as the Apple TV seems to finally be taking off with this newly added ability. I have several friends who have recently purchased Apple TVs and have been renting several movies per week. At ~4GB each for HD Movies, that bandwidth will add up quickly for Akamai.

Akamai is seriously undervalued and competition may be able to compete with them now but the CDN industry is in its infancy and purely based on packet delivery. To remain competitive in the CDN will require a considerable amount of R&D, innovation, and creativity which no CDN except Akamai offers.

I wanted to get this review out before it is no longer the weekend :). Las week I reviewed stocks from the week of January 30, 2006 . Let's take a look at the following week and see how stocks 'picked' during the week of February 6, 2006 worked out! <> As I like to point out, this review assumes a 'buy and hold' strategy to investing with equal dollar amounts purchased in each of the stocks reviewed during the particular week and the overall performance calculated as an average of the individual performances. In practice, I employ a very different disciplined portfoli...

Stock of the Day
AKAM

My Stock of the Day is Akamai (AKAM).
AKAM is a great growth company, that often trades at a premium multiple. The stock suffered a tumble after reporting earnings in April. It wasn't that the earnings were bad, but that investors had lofty expectations, and punished the stock unfairly when they didn't raise guidance more.
The stock has been undergoing a correction for the last couple of months, but the recent action leads me to believe that the correction is almost over, and the stock is ready to resume its uptrend.
A look at the chart shows that last week, the...

Akamai is about as low as it will get. You might be able to buy a coupld dollars lower over the next couple weeks if you get lucky, but this one is about as low as I think it will go.
We have insider buying going on, more video based websites in the top 100 websites list and those sites are all getting more popular every day.
Limelight is being aggressive in their sales efforts, but Akamai is best IMHO.
Worst case scenario, I think the head back to the mid fifties when people start rolling back into tech later this year.
