Under the Radar: Exploring Untapped Potential in Overlooked Stocks
Tuesday, December 17, 2024 - 12:18pm | 997As a rule, I pay almost no attention to Wall Street analysts. I do not give much of a whoop about their opinion of a stock. Most of my biggest winners have been underfollowed or not followed by mainstream Wall Street firms. Much of the research produced for individual investors by the big Wall...

Under the Radar: The Quiet Path to Investment Success
Tuesday, December 10, 2024 - 2:42pm | 1081Allow me to reiterate one very important point: I have no idea where markets will close next year. I cannot tell you which stock will be the top performer. I do not know how many times the Fed will cut interest rates. I may have an opinion about what interest rates will do next year, but I would...

Tuesday, December 3, 2024 - 3:55pm | 1076As we head into the New Year, it is usually customary to look ahead and make all sorts of confident predictions about how the stock market will do, how the economy will fare, and exactly what investors should do.

Under the Radar - November 19th, 2024
Tuesday, November 19, 2024 - 2:30pm | 862It should not be surprising that the new administration will be more friendly to the oil and gas business than the outgoing crowd. On several occasions, the Biden administration was openly hostile toward oil and gas and promised to end the industry and develop 100% alternative energy supplies. The...

Tuesday, November 12, 2024 - 5:42pm | 983So the election is finally behind us. Some folks are celebrating, others are devastated, but most Americans simply got up and went about their business. Having been in this industry since the Reagan-Mondale landslide of 1984, I have seen this pattern play out many times. Markets tend to get a bit...

Under the Radar - November 5th, 2024
Tuesday, November 5, 2024 - 1:14pm | 1154If all goes right, you will receive this email on election day.

Under the Radar - October 29th, 2024
Tuesday, October 29, 2024 - 2:24pm | 1219You probably never heard of Walter Schloss. Walter passed on to the great market in the sky in 2012 at the age of 95 after a long and, as many would say, unremarkable career on Wall Street. He was never famous. He was not a frequent guest on Wall Street Week and was only mentioned in Barron’s...

Tuesday, October 22, 2024 - 2:17pm | 1522Dear Benzinga Edge Member, All of us heard that when we were growing up if we tried to play the “All my friends do it” card to get out of a jam. We also did our best not to answer Mom when she asked that one because deep down inside, we knew she would not like that answer. The truth is...
