 The government’s biggest stimulus target is now the housing industry; more than any other industry in which we can invest, housing has a mandate to be successful.

In addition, real estate is usually a great inflation hedge. Read more...

 One of my favorite quotes from legendary Fidelity Magellan fund manager Peter Lynch is: “Far more money has been lost by investors preparing for corrections, or trying to anticipate corrections, than has been lost in the corrections themselves.” Meanwhile, we have added to our positions in Barrick Gold (ABX), a giant gold mining company, and Freeport-McMoRan (FCX) is the world’s largest publicly traded copper producer, and the 8th largest gold producer.

by George Putnam, editor The Turnaround Letter
 One of our favorite places to look for turnaround candidates is a list of the worst performers in a certain segment of the market. Because investor sentiment can change very rapidly, today’s dogs often become tomorrow’s darlings, and those who are willing to go against the crowd can reap significant profits.Among the worst performers in the S&P 500 index since the market hit its lows last June are Apple (AAPL), F5 Networks (FFIV), J.C. Penney (JCP) and Monster Beverage (MNST). Read more...

 Our latest Top Ten list has an impressive crop of stocks with good stories and charts that have shown large recent buying power (usually on earnings).

 Car rental companies should do very well going forward and benefit from strength in leisure and business travel as well.

by Westcott Rochette, S&P Capital IQ, The Outlook
 E.W. Scripps (SSP) carries S&P Capital IQ’s highest investment recommendation of 5-STARS, or “strong buy.”The media company has undergone a material evolution in its business composition that is not yet appreciated by the investment community, in our opinion, shedding non-essential assets and diversifying away from newspaper publishing in favor of broadcasting.

 Most investors wouldn't give a fund described as "relatively prosaic, dull, conservative" a second glance. That, however, is exactly how John Neff described the Windsor Fund that he headed for more than three decades. And, while his style may not have been flashy or eye-catching, the returns he generated for clients were dazzling -- so dazzling that Neff's track record may be the greatest ever for a mutual fund manager.

 Healthcare, Utilities, and Consumer Staples led the market higher earlier in the year. Technology was a sector that had lagged all year, but with its latest strength it is a very encouraging sign that the market could go higher. The Head and Shoulders formation in the tech sector, which I viewed as a potentially bearish pattern, is now negated because we broke through $71.00 on the PowerShares QQQ Trust (QQQ). Read more...
