Tuesday January 10, 2012
by Todd Salamone, contributing editor Schaeffer's Investment Research In early December, G-III Apparel ( GIII) reported quarterly earnings of $2.16 per share as year-over-year revenues rose 13.3 percent. Earnings topped estimates of $2.14 per share, reversing a two quarter trend in which GIII missed estimates.
Additionally, the company announced an agreement with Calvin Klein to open Calvin Klein Women’s Performance stores in the U.S., China and other countries throughout the world. GII shares responded favorably to the earnings and licensing news, which could be the catalysts for a turn-around play in the stock in 2012, following its dismal performance in the final seven months of 2011. From a technical perspective, we view the November/December low at the 80-month moving average as a potential pivot point, a trendline that supported the stock in 2002-2003 and again in 2004-2005. The earnings/licensing catalysts also pushed the shares back above the $22.50 area, which is half GIII’s all-time high set in April 2011 and such levels often provide strong support. With GIII’s short interest near all-time highs after a pullback to long-term support and favorable catalysts heading into 2012, GIII is an attractive speculative play. A short-covering rally in 2012 could rejuvenate GIII shares, which are still up by more than 500-percent over the past ten years.

Fidelity expert: Bowers' bond bets |
by Jack Bowers, editor Fidelity Monitor & Insight
If you’ve been worried that the bond market might take a big hit, you can relax. Indeed, while bond funds may lag stock funds over the next 5-10 years, they still have a decent shot at keeping up with inflation, and they remain an excellent way to cut risk in a blended portfolio.

5 ways to speculate on Cuba |
by Jim Powell, editor Global Changes & Opportunities Report
With the death of Hugo Chavez in March, and Venezuela’s economic decline, the heavily subsidized oil lifeline is likely to be cut or sharply reduced. I think the resulting energy squeeze will force Cuba to allow greater foreign trade and investment.
