TOP PICK
Things are heating up in private equities, IPO’s and M&A’s. Leader in the industry and will continue to dominate. Trading at 1.3X Book, which leaves room for upside to 1.5-1.6. Bonus payments are capped, which is a win for shareholders.

BUY
Has always had the ability to be a little better than the other managers on the street. ROE is fantastic. Expecting a very large merger/acquisition stage in the cycle.

COMMENT
3.47% due 2014 bond. From a credit standpoint this company has, and will continue to do very well. The real question is, where are interest rates going as well as currency exposure. Corporate bond spreads have narrowed but might have a little bit more to go so doesn't expect a lot of performance from this.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick June 19/09. Up 21%.) Still likes. Beat estimates once again. Trades at 9X forward earnings.

TOP PICK
Bear Stearns and Lehman went bankrupt and Merrill Lynch is part of Bank of America. Basically got rid of 3 of the 5 competitors. In bed with US government and US has to be completely restructured. Basically a license to print money. Crushed earnings last quarter and think they would do it again.

TOP PICK
Bull put spread: Sell Jan. puts @21.45, buy Apr. puts @9.60. Net credit $11.85/sh. Your risk is that you are below $180 in April in which case you would have to buy it at $200 and you have the right to sell it at $180, loosing $20 with $11.85 credit. If it is above $200 in April, you are just going to keep that $11.85 credit.

PARTIAL SELL
Has run up a lot so there could be a bit of a pullback. If you made some money, consider taking some off the table and then buying it back. Thinks it will be the premier investment bank and should continue to do well.

TOP PICK
One of the few investment banks left in the US. A way to make money above and beyond owning the stock is to sell Call Options against it. If you buy at $160 you sell a call option at $165 for October, 44 days away.

TOP PICK
Went into the financial crisis of 07 and 08 as one of the leaders and have emerged as the leader in the financial services space. Probably the most respected name in the investment banking business. Trading at 10X forward earnings, which is a bargain. 2nd quarter below way everyone's estimates. Estimates for the next quarter and for the full year are going up very quickly. Very shrewd management.

DON'T BUY
Exposed to every part of investment banking and have proven too big to fail. Too expensive.
