DON'T BUY
Great management. Have acquired many great companies. Just recently sold his holdings because their revenues are starting to decrease, which is worrisome. Also starting to move up into different areas of competition.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Apr 4/11, Down 10.78%) Markets are down 11-13%. He uses stops. This one didn’t work from the get-go. PE multiple is compressing.
DON'T BUY
The current difficulty with this one is that there has been a move to the cloud that has been getting lots of customers. This company has been slow to move in that direction. (He is Short this stock.)
BUY
(Market Call Minute.) Great company. Solid position in databases. Not as much growth as you would see in an Apple (AAPL-Q) or Qualcom (QCOM-Q) a good solid holding.
WATCH
It's a pretty fierce market in the business services database work. The issue for this company is what has been going on in the global slowdown and the competitive nature of their business. Margins are shrinking a little. But feels this is a pretty attractive entry here but watch for another quarter.
WAIT
Disappointing earnings in their last release. Blamed on timing of finishing some software contracts. Waiting for the next quarterly report.
HOLD
Technology is the right house and the stock is in the right neighbourhood. Even though it may not be one of the better performers, it is still going to be dragged up by the enthusiasm of the sector. There are others that he would prefer but if you are here, it is fine.
TOP PICK
Think of this as the middle of every business and making sure that all the moving parts are communicating in a very efficient way. Half of their revenue comes off licensing, which is stable and not cyclical. Have doubled their earnings since 2007. Have aggregated their businesses well.
BUY
Earnings expectations are moving up. One of the most solid management teams out there. He would rank Intel (INTC-Q) above this one. Relatively cheap at 11-12 times earnings. Decent growth expectations.
STRONG BUY
Larry Ellison is a great aggregator of businesses. More of the business is earning from service revenue which is more predictable.
TOP PICK
Good management. Businesses are going to have to be more efficient in this environment and this is one of their choices. Very strong balance sheet. Paying a dividend of a little under 1%. Good international sales.
BUY
Holds it in his growth-based strategies. Are reinventing itself. They are working toward the iPad. Tightening balance sheet and cutting costs. Likes it and it is a great price point.
TOP PICK
Hasn’t had an earnings miss since 2005. Down 20% of so from recent highs. Really good value. Strong balance sheet, no debt. Huge international sales. Half of all business technology investing goes into software.
BUY
Rejuvenated themselves quite well against their competition. Have a strategy of creating what are basically appliances, stacking an application on top of Sun Microsystems hardware on top of the database. This has improved the efficiency of delivering an integrated stack to their customers. Expecting to triple their business. Not expensive at 13X earnings.
TOP PICK
Doubled their earnings from 4 years ago. Good company. Have made good acquisitions and seem to be able to bring them in seamlessly.
