Does anyone know where else I can find Enterprise Value numbers for companies besides Yahoo! Finance? I like to have multiple sources for data so I can ensure at least some level of accuracy in the numbers I'm using for valuation purposes.

What can I expect to happen to Sprint stock tomorrow morning? http://www.cnbc.com/id/49408877 Should I set up a limit sell price right now? I bought in initially around $4.75 to hold long but wouldn't mind getting out on a spike.

It may be short lived since the Softbank is buying new shares so your holdings are being diluted. Since the new shares are valued at $5.25 I am thinking you might have a decent opportunity to sell at $7.30 and then buy the shares back at $5.25.

I would probably sell and take the profits. Would it be a decent idea to buy some SoftBank stock as their price tanked pretty hard due to the news, more than it probably should have.

It was my understanding that a simple retail investor like me wouldn't be able to get out at the $7.30 a share price that they're buying from shareholders at. I always thought any good news like that would be eaten up in milliseconds by major corporate traders and banks and stuff.

FlashBangBob posted:Sprint is only up about 3% in pre-market trading this morning. I doubled my position this morning, was shocked to see pre-market only up 2% as opposed to 10-15%. Could be a bad sign I think with the dilution, but I am still confident long term in Sprint. I thought for sure there'd be a short squeeze as well.

So what does it mean that Sprint just got bought? I mean, is there anything in their business model that's changing or something? Are they putting in new management or merging or selling patents or anything?

I think someone hit it on the head when they said MSFT still to afraid of a big lawsuit due to their overwhelming market share to really bundle things. They have of course also been busy patient trolling the crap out of everyone (and winning)to the point where Google is now on their list.

The fact that Gates and Balmer don't give a gently caress what shareholders think is the best thing about the company, not the worst.

I purchased TXN (Texas Instruments) a few weeks ago with the intention to go long on it. Today the stock is up due to the news that Amazon may purchase Texas Instruments. Any advice on how to ride out a potential acquisition? I wasn't really looking for very much action, I mainly just wanted a nice place to keep my money and earn some dividends while quantitative easing takes place. It's only up 3% today by anticipate this may increase and could also drop significantly if it is called off.

TI is quite a good company without involving Amazon. I can't say if it is a good investment opportunity, but I respect the company, products and support staff very much. I have no idea why Amazon would want to buy TI (or why TI would want to be bought, considering they have been doing acquisitions of their own).

What the hell ARR? Last week we were pushing $7.6x and today 6.90. News of dividend cut was known last month and even then, it was producing a 14% payout. I just dont get it.

Guys, the rumor isn't that AMZN is going to purchase TXN, it's that they might purchase TXN's mobile chip arm which is UP FOR SALE and makes perfect sense for an AMZN acquisition as they use TXN chips in all their devices. TXN isn't going anywhere and AMZN won't be buying the entire company, nor is anyone suggesting that.

What do you guys think of DELL? It looks attractively priced to me (based on P/E, P/FCF, and EV/EBITDA). Additionally, it looks like Dell is strategically moving more and more to the higher margin realm of Enterprise solutions. I don't really see the decline of the home PC really impacting Dell if they can manage this shift in good order. What other risks do you guys see here?

Buying TI's mobile chip division because you use the chips is a horrible waste of resources unless you actually plan on plowing a lot of money into R&D.

I'm reading Hedge Fund Wizards right now and it's really really good. I tried reading Alpha Masters and it was just okay. Highly recommended.

They are pretty clearly pushing aggressively into the mobile/tablet space and want to carve out their own niche as opposed to being a commodity android tablet player, so I'm not sure how their intention to spend a lot on R&D would come as a surprise or ever be called into doubt. Not to mention the potential of high performing ARM chips in Amazon's cloud moving forward (it's not just about tablets). The rumor makes a lot of sense for a lot of reasons, though I don't necessarily see it happening.

I just finished working through Expected Returns. It's a beast, but is prob the most comprehensive book (by a long measure) I've read on modern financial theory wrt risk and return. For a lighter treatment of the same subject I suggest Jackass Investing. edit: also best contrarian book I've read all year is The Missing Risk Premium nebby fucked around with this message at 08:32 on Oct 16, 2012 |

But there is just a wealth of information in it that I could see learning something new each time you read it.

I have no drat clue. AGNC is also down. Someone in a chat forum I hang in speculated that because mortgage rates are even lower then that is killing the spread in much the same way if the feds were to raise interest rates from the bottom end it is now, of which they have stated they wont adjust until what, 2014/2015? The spread just isn't as profitable now or something?

So, I temped for a company involved in pending litigation recently, and learned in the process it is probably a good idea to buy their stock. I have done some digging on the internet and found posts on message boards and in the comments sections on articles about the case, advising that the firm is likely to win their case. Is it still illegal or unethical for me to purchase their stock if that advice is available elsewhere?

Not sure about the REITs, but the oil trusts (BPT in particular) are getting hammered too. Not sure why, can't find anything on the news.
