Good News at FBR Group

Submitted by Jeffrey Annello on Thu, 2008-02-21 17:24.
  • FBR

       

            As you may have seen, I wrote up an article at the end of last year on FBR Group, a small cap financial stock that had fallen very hard in the past few years as it got involved in the subprime and structured finance mess.   My main thesis was that the stock was mispriced, extremely cheap, and available at a substantial margin of safety.  As they reported their 4th quarter results today, my belief in a margin of safety came to fruition as the write downs were aplenty, and total asset value has changed, but the company is doing fine.

International Monster: Turkcell Iletisim Hizmetleri AS (TKC)

Submitted by Mark Perkins on Fri, 2008-02-01 21:42.

Monster stock Turkcell is a provider of communication services. I say monster because of their market cap which is 21 billion. They sell wireless phone subscription and internet internet access. They have the right combination of a few things I pay close attention to in a large company. First, they generate a lot of free cash flow. Management is growing shareholder equity.

Want to be a Successful Investor? Listen to Emerson

Submitted by Jeffrey Annello on Wed, 2008-01-09 03:34.

 

 

"I know that for myself it makes no difference whether I do or forbear those actions which are reckoned excellent. I cannot consent to pay for a privilege where I have intrinsic right. Few and mean as my gifts may be, I actually am, and do not need for my own assurance or the assurance of my fellows any secondary testimony." 

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Submitted by Bridge Street on Sat, 2008-01-05 13:03.

The springbok of southern Africa, combined with some simple mathematics, yields useful lessons for investors.  A springbok is a deer-like animal that, according to Wikipedia, forms some of the largest migratory herds ever recorded.  Imagine now that you are a springbok in a herd with 99 other identical springbok walki
