Stan Wong EMC Corp EMC-N BUY Jun 24, 2014

They have that chunk in VM wear which is a great spot to be in. If you take that value out you see the legacy side of the business has gone down. You are fine owning the stock, but nothing has made her pull the trigger on it.

Storage in Cloud is the future, and this is a great name. PEG ratio is at 1.2, so you are not paying social media type of valuations. This should do well.

The big kicker here is that there are some activists shareholders involved. VMware is the crown jewel that is growing at 20%. Management is arguing that it is a strategic fit, but the other side is saying they are better off being split up.

(Top Pick Oct 30/13, 24.51%) The crown jewel for the business is VM ware. An active investor wants to break them up. There might be choppiness.

This is not unlike a lot of the large cap tech stocks. They made so much money and were so good at what they did, but technology always changes, and there is always the question about if the company is still relevant. Because of that, she has seen very compelling valuations across the board on the large cap technology space. Seeing some positive momentum and thinks this is a good thing to own.

All US big caps are having trouble. It is a slow growth environment. This is a best of breed in storage technology. Storage is becoming a commoditized market.

Long-term hasn’t been a bad trend as the lows are getting higher. He would pay attention to current trends. You don’t want to see it break much below $25. Chart shows a consolidation with the highs gradually getting lower, while the lows basically stay in place. This is a descending triangle, which is actually a consolidation. You can’t tell ahead of time which way it is going to break out, but if it breaks to the upside above $28, it could be a great stock, but if it breaks below $25, it could be a terrible story. This is in limbo right now. He would probably hold it a little while longer to see what happens.

(Market Call Minute.) He really likes the storage and software space. This has been performing well, and should grow over the next 2 years.

Dell is buying the hardware division. They spun out their software division, VM Ware. EMC is one of the dominant players in storage. You may have to pay taxes on the full value of the spin-off gains. Everything is in the price of the stock currently.
