TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 406. Up 13.9%.) A great franchise. A garage sale every day. No inventory. Strong free cash flow. Trades around 35 x earnings but they have great pricing power.
TOP PICK
A great business. No inventory. Lots of free cash flow. Continues to grow internationally. Has a brand name, which is very important on the Web. Good price.
COMMENT
Trading at a lower multiple than a year ago, probably because the market doesn't think the growth will be as sharp. Have done a tremendous job. Dominate their market. Too rich for his blood, but in the e-commerce space, it's hard to find a better name.
TOP PICK
A simple business to run. No inventory, lots of free cash flow and everything is done over the Internet. Great pricing power.
TOP PICK
Likes the tech sector in general. This is one of the best franchises on the Web. Trades at about 20 X earnings but is growing much faster than that. Strong management.
DON'T BUY
Makes a lot of money on its Internet payment system PayPal but Google has announced it will create its own payment system in competition. This has spooked a lot of people. Also, some of the fun has gone out of Internet auctions and the growth is not there any more.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Looking at it quite seriously at this price. Getting pressure from Google Wallet giving you another way to manage transactions over the Internet. Good management. Probably good if you can't get it in the mid to low $20.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 16/05. Down 26 %.) Have been some concerns, but the stock is overpriced where those concerns are overblown.
DON'T BUY
A decent company. Management is pretty good. Would be a little cautious as there are a lot of companies that are starting to get into their territory.
TOP PICK
Continues to execute on its business model of on-line auctions and now fixed price sales. Likes the price. Have made some changes to accelerate the listings. The acquisition of Skype could be a real winner.
DON'T BUY
The internet group has been performing remarkably well relative to a difficult market. However, this one has been underperforming.
