Very Bullish on Peabody

By admin | May 9, 2008

You know i have watched this stock for years and being a bit pricey for me i have bought a bit at a time. Now i site on a few hundred shares and been in the green since. If you can afford to buy  a lot of shares at once this is a good one to be just increasing your position on over the course of the year…btu.gif

Morgan Stanley is out with a positive call on Peabody (BTU), raising their target significantly from $54 to $80. According to the firm, Peabody is increasingly a play on execution of a growth story in Australia. BTU has underperformed peers, largely due to disappointing results in its Australian segment. Morgan Stanley thinks results will improve as coal chain expansions should allow Peabody to grow production, ease cost pressures, and improve its mix of high-margin metallurgical coal.

The firm thinks BTU can reach +30 mm tonne production sooner than expected, and on minimal investment. They expect improved pricing and volume, mostly in Australia, to result in EBITDA tripling from 2007 to 2009.

Morgan Stanley reiterates Overweight.

Notablecalls: This is a pretty powerful call, ladies and gentlemen. Peabody has lagged peers recently due in large part to the performance of its Australian operations. Now Morgan Stanley says things are about to get better there and that the stock will catch up with peers.

Bearish calls

By admin | May 9, 2008

Polyone Corp (POL): ” … Vinyl is a very hard business. It’s levered to all sorts of prices of crude and energy …don’t buy, dont’ buy… If anything, I would actually ring the register. It’s had a nice little run.”
Level 3 Communications (LVLT): “I’m torn on this one… It will not get my blessing or my push until they deliver two good quarters… because they delivered three bad quarters.”
Immersion (IMMR): “I’ve got too many of those, and they’re just not working… don’t buy.”

TAP vs SBUX

By admin | May 8, 2008

 Despite the economic slowdown, or perhaps due to the pressures on beer drinkers from the slowdown, Molson Coors (TAP) reported better than expected sales and earnings for the recent quarter and the stock foamed up over 8%. TAP has been a position of mine for several months, up over 25% before the pop. The stock has appeared cheap relative to earnings and sales, had a nice pattern of improving earnings estimates from Wall Street and few short sellers willing to bet against it - and the news proved they were right to be cautious.

Before the Coors - Molson merger, Coors stock ticker was “ACCOB”, or Adolph Coors Company Class B, but traders used to quip it was “A Cold Can Of Beer”. “TAP” is the new moniker and apparently the merger is working well; the initial clash of the Coors and Molson cultures are integrating nicely. I will continue to hold the stock, hoping for sustained growth and good performance as more investors come around to the streaking Silver Bullet.

On the opposite side of the beverage stock performance spectrum is Starbucks, (SBUX). Though nothing major came out today, much has been reported on the company recently, its slow down in store growth, declining earnings, etc. Yet, the stock still appears over-valued, and I am short it. Even though the stock is down about 35% over the last 6 months, I still think it can go lower. Investors often don’t embrace negative news about a company until its been re-affirmed again (and again) in the future. Thus, stocks with a pattern of declining earnings and surprises tend to underperform in the future, and I expect SBUX to be one of them.

With tough economic times and political uncertainty, consumers don’t want to be wired from caffeine, they want a brew to take the edge off. I expect the TAP/SBUX performance divergence to continue.

I’m short sbux

Disney Parks Flourish

By admin | May 7, 2008

Walt Disney Co. bucked the gloomy economic climate in its fiscal second quarter, as net income rose 22% from a year ago on surprisingly strong business at its theme parks and resorts and its TV networks.

Investors were watching Walt Disney’s theme parks and resorts closely for any sign of weakness amid rising fuel and food costs and the impact of the housing crisis — all factors that could cut into families’ visits to Disney parks. But revenue at the Burbank, Calif., entertainment conglomerate’s theme-park unit for the quarter ended March 29 increased 11% to $2.7 billion from the year-earlier
