In the third quarter, the pain at David Einhorn (Trades, Portfolio)'s hedge fund Greenlight Capital Inc. intensified. The 14.2% decline dragged his nine-month loss on the value of his investments to 16.9%, compared to a 12.3% drop for the S&P 500, meaning 2015 is shaping up to be his first year in the red in five years.
The poor performance at the $12.3 billion firm was not entirely attributable to Greenlight's long positions. Einhorn had only 20.9% net long exposure as of June 30, as he conservatively positioned his portfolio for a more negative economic environment and invested in other instruments.Continue Reading »
Over the last two years, the only company I have found interesting is Micron Technology (NASDAQ:MU). I began following it four or five months ago when I noticed that it was falling. In the past I had noticed that investors such as David Einhorn (Trades, Portfolio) and Seth Klarman (Trades, Portfolio) were investing in it, and both bought it at much higher prices than what it is trading now. Einhorn declared after the stock prices fell that it was still a good investment. I am sure that it is a better buy now than when it was over $30. Indeed, after a long fall and having studied Micron for some months, I decided a few weeks ago that it was too cheap to let it pass and started buying it, fortunately at much lower levels than Einhorn.
I don't like to invest in a stock only because someone I admire owns it. I need to be convinced of it myself and focused on studying it. Fundamentally it looks cheap; what needed to be qualitatively analyzed is if the fundamentals can be sustained. As the conclusion of my investigations, I will discuss here a set of conditions that currently make Micron a unique buying opportunity. I will not focus on numbers such as EPS or fundamental metrics, because I believe that any sophsticated investor can find those out relatively easy. Rather, I will focus on the main factors that make Micron a sustainable long-term investment.Continue Reading »

Let's take a look at Micron Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:MU), a $27.18 billion market cap company, which provides semiconductor solutions worldwide. The stock delivers a negative return of more than 52% on a year-to-date basis. This crash is alarming for me, but it seems that some hedge fund managers take the opposite direction. Perhaps the reason behind this bullish sentiment is the fact that the stock has outperformed the market in 2013 and 2014.

At the close of trading on Aug. 21, the S&P 500 fell 3.2% or 64.84 points to 1,970.89. According to the S&P Dow Jones Indices, the index lost $1.14 trillion in value that week.

The $3 trillion hedge-fund industry tumbled probably due to two important effects. On the one hand, Greece's debt situation and on the other hand the recent performance of the Chinese stocks. In simple words, June was a bad month for stocks and for hedge funds, too.

It has been a few years since General Motors Company (NYSE:GM) resurected from the ashes of its former incarnations bankruptcy. It is still the leading automaker in the States and slowly U.S. taxpayers are forgiving the company its previous mistakes. In October 2010 the automaker integrated AmeriCredit to continue to offer credit to customers. Currently, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles CEO Sergio Marchionne is pursuing GM to merge with the Italian automaker. Sergio Marchionne has a reputation as a briliant manager who is highly skilled at creating shareholder value. His arguments are laid out in a presentation called Confessions of a Capital Junkie. His main point is that automakers are achieving RoIC below their average cost of capital. Long term that is a huge problem, and he thinks the solution lies in a few mega companies. By his estimates a combination of Fiat with another major automaker would result in between $2.8 billion to $5 billion in benefits per year. Fiat and GM's combined Ebitda is around $19 billion, so that is signficant. GM CEO Mary Barra, meanwhile has indicated to be uninterested.

Chicago Bridge and Iron (NYSE:CBI) stock jumped 8% in Friday's trading after Bloomberg reported that Anadarko Petroleum Corp (APC) is poised to select a construction team led by Chicago Bridge & Iron Co. as its main contractor for a potential $15 billion Mozambique liquefied natural gas project. Chicago Bridge & Iron's current backlog is ~$30 bn and this win may help it significantly increase its backlog and revenue visibility in the near term. Further, Anadarko proceeding with this project will also reassure investors who are worried about the fate of energy mega-projects amid the oil market downturn.
Chicago Bridge and Iron is trading at 9.68 time current year earnings and analysts are expecting its top and bottomline to decline slightly over the next year. A win of the size of Mozambique LNG project may help the company grow its revenue next year, instead of slight decline which analysts are modeling. So, there is a good chance of the next year numbers getting revised upwards when the deal is formally announced.Continue Reading »

Recent correction in oil prices have taken a toll on Chicago Bridge & Iron Company's (NYSE:CBI) share prices and the stock has corrected ~50% from 2014 highs. However, according to many analysts, this correction provides a good opportunity to buy the stock. In his recent report, Jefferies analyst Luke Folta reiterated his buy opinion on the company. He considers the stock a bargain at current levels and has a price target of $75 on the stock. He believes divesture of assets and restructuring could generate more that $100 million in cash flow for the company in 2015 and 2016 which could be used towards stock buy backs.

Yet Yahoo's market capitalization is just is just $42 billion, giving a negative value to its core business.Continue Reading »

Oil has been a hot topic in the news ever since prices began to decline, which has lead investors to paying closer attention to energy stocks. As outlined in a previous article on the energy sector, the recent spike in insider buys in this sector did not go unnoticed. Although looking at trends in insider trades is one way to determine which stocks are potentially good buys, another way is by looking at the dividend data, a feature we offer to premium members. The tab can be found on each stock's page.
Here's a look at the top three oil companies in the industry – BP PLC (NYSE:BP), Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE:XOM) and Chevron Corp (NYSE:CVX) – and which stock is a safer buy based on dividend data.Continue Reading »

Over the long term, Peter Thiel would not bet against Jeff Bezos and Amazon.com. David Einhorn (Trades, Portfolio) disagrees as he is shorting the still profit-less Amazon.

As of the close on 10/13/2014, Greenlight Reinsurance (GLRE), Third Point Reinsurance (TPRE), and Pershing Square Holdings (AEX:PSH) were selling at discounted prices compared to their book values. These three companies are led by 3 of the top investing gurus we follow, David Einhorn, Daniel Loeb, and Bill Ackman.
Einhorn and Loeb are following the Warren Buffett model of using the float from an insurance company to essentially make investments on what is similar to an investment free loan. When insurance premiums are collected, the capital has to stay with the company in order to pay out the claims. The premiums collected, but not paid out yet, are referred to as float. As long as the underwriting business is profitable, the float mimics an interest free loan. A common metric used is the combined ratio. A ratio of 100 is break-even, and the lower the number, the more profitable the business. The underwriting profit is simply measured as premiums received minus expenses. In some years, claims might be higher due to certain events, so enough liquidity must be retained to pay them out. Most insurance companies invest the float in fixed income to generate extra cash flow and increase profits. The float from Greenlight Re and Third Point Re is managed by the hedge funds Greenlight Capital and Third Point. Einhorn is the manager of Greenlight Capital and Loeb is the manager of Third Point.Continue Reading »

It is important to learn from the best and clone their strategy, as noted by Mohnish Pabrai (Trades, Portfolio) of the Pabrai Investments. This author compiled a list of 60 Super Investors, with a combined asset of $428B under management, based on data from dataroma.com. Every manager in the list has a long and successful track record. A few of them, like David Einhorn (Trades, Portfolio), Bill Ackman (Trades, Portfolio), Lou Simpson (Trades, Portfolio), and Charlie Munger (Trades, Portfolio) are well known to the investment community. A corner stone strategy for these Super Investors is to pay less and get more, as noted by Bruce Berkowitz (Trades, Portfolio) of the Fairholme Fund (Trades, Portfolio). It would be fantastic way to invest by buying companies selected by the Super Investors and pay a lower price than they did.
Below is a list of Super Investors:Continue Reading »

This article is response to a article written by New Capital on Seeking Alpha on the July 21, 2014 titled, "BioFuel Energy – Day Traders Pushed The Price Above Reasonable Limits."
The writer of that article has taken a short position in BIOF and argues that there are a number of reasons why he thinks the price of Biofuel Corp is to high and that he thinks insiders are selling 49% of their equity stake JBGL. I show below that a number of his points are in fact incorrect and that BIOF, actually represents a very interesting long investment opportunity. (I hold a long position in BIOF)Continue Reading »

At GuruFocus we follow many of the top investment managers around the globe. I like to follow the investing gurus that are in control of a publicly traded company that I can buy. The gurus I follow include Warren Buffett (Berkshire Hathaway, BRK.A), Carl Icahn (Icahn Enterprises, IEP) and Prem Watsa (Fairfax Financial, TSX:FFH, FRFHF). All of their stocks have performed well over the years. We can still make money with these gurus, but for how long? Warren Buffett (Trades, Portfolio) is 83 years old and Carl Icahn (Trades, Portfolio) is 78. Prem Watsa (Trades, Portfolio) is the youngest of the three mentioned at 64. There are some great investment gurus in their early 50's such as Daniel Loeb (Third Point Re, TPRE) and Tom Gayner (Markel, MKL) that we can follow for years, but I wanted to see if I could find gurus that are at even earlier stages in their careers.
Three gurus under the age of 50 that we can potentially follow for decades to come are David Einhorn (Greenlight Capital Re, GLRE), Warren Lichtenstein (Steel Partners Holdings, SPLP), and Sardar Biglari (Biglari Holdings, BH). Each one is the chairman of their publicly traded company and makes investments that have direct effects on the performance of those companies. Another person to keep an eye on is Steven Toy, the chairman of the investment committee at Wilbur Ross' Company, WL Ross & Company.Continue Reading »
An acquaintance of mine recently expressed his regret in selling out his Idenix Pharmaceuticals Inc position before it got bought out by Merck. He was frustrated by having missed out on big profits. I asked him whether he understands complicated bio-pharm. He said no, bio-pharm is out his circle of competency. Then I asked him how much research he had done, he said the minimum. In the end, I asked him why he bought the stock without doing much research. His answer was "because Klarman bought it."
This is not an isolated instance in the investment world. I've seen a few other folks blindly following gurus, be it Seth Klarman (Trades, Portfolio) or David Einhorn (Trades, Portfolio), without proper due diligent on their own.Continue Reading »
In general, spinoffs have outperformed the S&P 500 in their first few years of trading. There are two recent articles on GuruFocus providing information on spinoffs and their outperformance:
David Einhorn (Trades, Portfolio)'s hedge fund firm Greenlight Capital is up 5.4% for 2014 through May, a positive turn from the 1.5% loss he reported for the first quarter. The fund was plagued by a 61% year-to-date increase in a significant short, Keurig Green Mountain Inc. (NASDAQ:GMCR). He also reported shorting a basket of technology stocks, where the Nasdaq 100 Technology Sector has risen 12% year to date. Athenahealth Inc. (NASDAQ:ATHN), another short which he announced on May 5, is down 6.4% since the start of the year, but has returned to around the level it was before he made the announcement.
Einhorn has made impressive showings with his top long selections, however. Several have almost doubled from his average purchase price. Making up roughly 46% of his portfolio, Einhorn's top positions are: Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL), Micron Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:MU), Marvell Technology Group Ltd. (NASDAQ:MRVL) and Cigna Corp (NYSE:CI).Continue Reading »
Using the S&P 500 Grid at GuruFocus I found David Einhorn's Greenlight Capital Re (GLRE) near the top of the list for small cap net buys from the investing gurus. There were six buys and no sales from the gurus. Greenlight Capital Re is an interesting company because it is a way to gain access to Greenlight Capital's portfolio without needing the typical $1 million to invest in most hedge funds.

David Einhorn (Trades, Portfolio)'s Green Light Capital hedge fund was more acquisitive for international stocks last quarter, with half of its new holdings based in countries outside the U.S. In his letter to shareholders, Einhorn also mentioned that one of his top five long positions is now a Greek bank, Alpha Bank (ATH:ALPHA). The investors other top picks as of the first quarter's end are Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), gold, Marvell Technology (NASDAQ:MRVL), Micron Technology (NASDAQ:MU) and Oil States International (NYSE:OIS).
Alpha Bank's share price:Continue Reading »
In the first quarter, David Einhorn (Trades, Portfolio)'s Greenlight Capital purchased four news stocks, of which two hailed from outside the U.S. In a rising price environment, the price-conscious investor is increasingly going abroad for good values. He revealed in his first quarter letter that one of his fund's top five positions is a Greek company, Alpha Bank AE (ATH:ALPHA), and also mentioned that he owned other Greek banks. The two new international stocks he bought in quarter one are: Resona Holdings (TSE:8308) and Altice S.A. (XAMS:ATC).
Resona Holdings (TSE:8308)Continue Reading »
David Einhorn (Trades, Portfolio) had a mediocre quarter one, dropping 1.5% while the S&P gained 1.2%, but he spies opportunities up ahead, according to his Greenlight Capital letter. One such is a short of a basket of technology stocks he believes are far overvalued and due for a correction, for which there is a precedent from the last tech bubble.
"Given the enormous stock price volatility, we decided to short a basket of bubble stocks," he wrote in his letter. "A basket approach makes sense because it allows each position to be very small, thereby reducing the risk of any particular high-flier becoming too costly. The corollary to 'twice a silly price is not twice as silly' is that when the prices reconnect to traditional valuation methods, the de-rating can be substantial. There is a huge gap between the bubble price and the point where disciplined growth investors (let alone value investors) become interested buyers. When the last internet bubble popped, Cisco (NASDAQ:CSCO) (the best of the best bubble stocks) fell 89%, Amazon fell 93%, and the lower quality stocks fell even more."Continue Reading »
We established a position in Resona (TSE:8308), the largest Japanese regional bank, at a price of ¥547,representing 0.8x book value and 8x earnings. Resona was formed through the 2002-2003merger and recapitalization of three local banks in the Tokyo and Osaka regions. As part of thatrecapitalization, the Japanese government bought a majority equity stake. Under newmanagement, the bank cleaned up its balance sheet, began paying back the government stake,and has been profitable every year since, reaching a 13% ROE last year. In 2013, managementannounced a five-year plan to buy out the remaining government shareholding. Due to strongerthan expected earnings, that plan is well ahead of schedule, and the company is buying backstock from the government at very attractive valuations. The accretion from the buyback doesnot appear to be reflected in analyst models. With the more volatile international Japanese bankstrading at 9x EPS, and its peer regionals at 13x EPS, Resona is cheap on both an absolute andrelative basis. Resona shares ended the quarter at ¥499.Continue Reading »

Depleted Nashville Predators falling from race
The Nashville Predators play 12 of their last 18 games at home. Theoretically, they have a chance to claw back into the playoff hunt.
But they need to reverse their form quickly. The Predators struggled through a 1-4 road trip while allowing 20 goals.
Injuries wiped out forwards Patric Hornqvist, Paul Gaustad, Colin Wilson as well as defensemen Hal Gill and Scott Hannan. Some youthful fill-ins have appeared a bit overwhelmed at times.
That was evident during a 4-3 loss to the Blue Jackets in Columbus.
"We lost, and some of the mistakes we made is sort of say a broken record," coach Barry Trotz told reporters afterward. "Some guys are making some blunders. We didn't quit at the end, that was a positive, but positive doesn't get you points. Close but no cigar. You need 20 guys. Right now we're a little shorthanded, guys are trying to stay in the league, some guys are trying to make the team, some guys are trying to make a difference."
Trotz is also miffed at some of his veteran players, most notably Sergei Kostitsyn.
"Some guys, I'm not happy with their game," he said. "They have to give us more. And I can go top to bottom. There's some guys in that locker room who can give us a lot more, and that's the part that bothers me."

You may not believe this (the cab driver didn't), but when he's driving his granny's ancient Honda, a smoke-free zone without radio or tape deck, Tom, my son, is a perfectly competent driver - especially if his granny is sitting in the passenger seat beside him. It's only when he's with his friends, being dead cool and image-conscious, that his concentration wanders.
To be honest, in one sense he is a far better driver than Granny, who has never had an accident in her life. His reactions are swifter, his judgement is clearer and his eyesight is sharper. But Granny doesn't care what she looks like when she's driving whereas Tom wants to look like Steve McQueen in Bullitt or George Clooney in From Dusk to Dawn.
Stiffen up the driving test by all means, but don't expect young lads to be safer drivers until you rid cars by law of such would-be image-enhancers as mobile phones, cigarettes and Puff Daddy CDs. Better still, using Granny as a shining example of accident-free motoring, why not make it obligatory for young men who've just passed their driving tests to wear galoshes, Fair Isle mittens and matching angora bobble hats for their first year behind the wheel. That, together with a couple of old gardening cushions to sit on and a yapping West Highland terrier called Scrap looking balefully out of the back window, should stop them wanting to draw attention to themselves and turn them into more attentive drivers.
This little diatribe about safety coming from someone who drove illegally for 15 years is, I admit, a bit rich. I did pass my test, but I shouldn't have.
It was that tiresome regulation about being able to read a car registration plate at 25 yards. I've always had rotten eyesight. I failed O-level maths because I couldn't see the fractions. Knowing that I'd never be able to see a number plate at that distance, but desperate to drive, I took the precaution of arriving at the test centre early and memorising the numbers of all the cars parked in the street outside. When, emerging from the office, the examiner pointed to a car and said "Read me that plate, please", I said, "You mean the red Mini or the blue Fiesta?" and then fired off the relevant number. Too bad I failed on my three-point turn.
On my second attempt at a licence they failed me for failing to reverse round a corner. Not once did any examiner remark on my inability to see detail at a distance, which proves something about the vagaries of peripheral vision and what you need to be a good driver. I never had a single accident, or a point on my licence, in the 15 years I called myself a motorist.
The new, improved test, particularly the written paper, sounds ominously like A-levels. Pity the poor parents. As if we hadn't already got our work cut out getting them to revise their Middlemarch and German vocab, now we have to badger them to brush up their big ends and cylinder heads.
If you really are one of those people whose knees turn to water when you see a test centre, your best bet is still Pondicherry, India, where a driving test lasts 10 minutes and the examiner doesn't even get into the car. He stands by the roadside while you drive slowly past, turn left, reverse and drive back to where he's scribbling in his notebook. If there are no cars in the way, it's a cinch.
In Iran, the final part of a learner driver's test takes place in a stadium to which the public can buy tickets, because it is such good family entertainment. I worked on a newspaper in Tehran for a year and can honestly say that I've never seen such awful driving in my life. They installed traffic lights at the busy junction outside my office but gave them up in favour of an armed policeman. He waved his arms to start with, but if drivers took no notice he fired first in the air and then at their wing mirrors. Once I saw the traffic policeman waving furiously to no avail. Then the firing started, followed by the usual tinkle of wing-mirror glass. Finally, having used up all his ammunition, he headed home, leaving the gridlock behind.
I know it gets pretty clogged up on the Hangar Lane gyratory but our motorists, even with the bad old driving test, still observe lane discipline. And keep their wing mirrors.

Fall Festival to feature several water, land events By Ron Maloney Staff Writer Extreme sports fans who like to get it done in the dirt or in the water will converge on Texas Ski Ranch this weekend to finish the Fall Festival rained out in September by Hurricane Rita. The ski ranch's largest event of the year, the Fall Festival includes wakeboarding, motocross, an auto show and bikini competitions, with live music provided in between. The wakeboard and mini- moto events will attract some of the world's top competitors who will be vying for more than $20,000 in cash and prizes. And when competitors aren't on the moto track or in the water, the facilities will be open to spectators to participate in their favorite extreme sports. "This is one of our two big events of the year," said Blake Hess, spokesman for Texas Ski Ranch, located off Interstate 35 See FESTIVAL, Page 3 Clockwise from top, a group of Canyon High School students cheer on the Cougars with "BEAT LT" painted on their chest; while most fans left the football game early, Canyon Cougar father Dan Ward stands and raises his hat to the players coming off the field to the school's alma mat; 2-year-old Cheyanne Thompson sits in her fathers lap and cheers on the Canyon Cougars during Friday night's football game.

Photos by MANDY REARY/ Herald-Zeitung By Hamza Hendam Associated Press Writer BAGI I DAD, Iraq — Insurgents sabotaged power lines Friday, plunging the Iraqi capital into darkness and cutting off water supplies on the eve of a landmark vote on a constitution that would define democracy in Iraq. The charter — hammered out after months of bitter negotiations — is supported by a Shiite-Kurdish majority but hits split Sunni Arab ranks after last-minute amendments designed to win support among the disaffected minority. In Friday sermons across the nation, the message from Shiite pulpits was an unequivocal "yes," but it was not so clearcut in Sunni Arab mosques — varying from "yes," "no" and "vote your conscience." Amid security concerns, Iraqis were hunkered down for most of the day in their homes, with the streets of the Iraqi capital almost empty hours before a IO p.m. curfew and the country sealed off from die outside world as borders and airports were closed for Saturday's referendum. The widespread power outage hit soon after sundown, when Muslims break their daily fast during the holy month ol Ramadan, leaving Baghdad's skyline black except for pinpoints of light from private generators. Water also ran out in homes in some parts of the capital and water pressure waned. The insurgents took out several electrical towers between the northern towns ol Kirkuk and Beiji, 180 miles from Baghdad, said Mahmoud al-Saaedi, an Electricity Ministry spokesman. He could not say how they were hit. See BLACKOUT, Page 3 ;

Project Description
I require an engineering report on designing steel beams and such including rc beams and columns. The actual report in itself is not a writing report but rather a calculations report. I need to design a few beams and I was hoping that anyone here with the experience could help here. Please no students but experienced civil engineers who upon looking at it can tell what to do and know the difference.
It is the actual designing of the beams given certain positions of the beam and columns in the structure and the purpose is to design the beams using the eurocodes and the british standards. So people familiar with these are expected to reply only as it is not for everyone to write or know.
And secondly please be reasonable in your demands for the report.

Successful Lab Reports by Christopher S. Lobban
Book DescriptionScience students are expected to produce lab reports, but are rarely adequately instructed on how to write them. Aimed at undergraduate students, Successful Laboratory Reports bridges the gap between the many books about writing term papers and the advanced books about writing papers for publication in scientific journals, neither of which gives much information about writing laboratory reports. The first part guides students through the structure of a good report as they write a first draft. The second part shows how to revise the report and how to polish and nurture good science writing skills. The book will prove invaluable to all science students, but particularly those in biology and chemistry.

Congressional Republicans effectively declared Barack Obama's budget to be dead in the water on Friday in spite of concessions that would see cuts to welfare benefits.
The budget, which would kick in on October 1, is not due to be published until Wednesday, but the main elements were reported on Friday by the New York Times and Reuters, and confirmed off the record by the White House. As well as benefit cuts, the budget proposes tax rises.
The Republican House speaker, John Boehner, dismissed the proposed benefit cuts as "modest".
Obama made a rare visit to Congress last month to address House Republicans, who have proved to be his staunchest opponents, in an attempt to gather support for his budget.

Project Description
Title of the project:
DVD rental system ("Rentals 4 u")
Problem Definition:
"Rentals 4 u" is a company which provides DVD rentals to local customers. The current system requires customers to write down their personal details on paper including the date of DVD rental and return. This information is then stored under the owner's desk for future reference in a file.
Problems with the current system include:
• Paper based system prone to errors such as human errors when entering customer contact details
• The file can be easily destroyed in a fire
• Can be easily manipulated
• Easy to misplace
• Customers can repeatedly return DVDs late
• Difficult to manage stock I.e. DVDs can be lost
• Manager can forget to ask for Proof of address and I.D
Proposed IS (Aims & Objectives):
The proposed IS will:
• Provide an easy to use interface to store customer data
• Allow staff to add/edit/delete customer and DVD data as well as user accounts
• Produce reports based on DVD rentals such as most popular rentals
• Send email reminders to customers
• Provide a blacklist function to ensure users who constantly return DVDs late are recorded
• Search stock and track rentals
• Ensure customer identification and proof of address is provided upon rental
The IS will be developed using Visual Basic and Microsoft Access.Get free quotes for a project like this
