- Look For An Afternoon Rally - The Bears Will Test The Bid First!
-
Yesterday, the market staged a nice rally after the Fed lowered interest rates by a half a point. Eisenhower was our president the last time the Fed funds rate was this low. Interest rates around the world have been cut by central banks and more action is expected. This week, China dropped its rate by a quarter-point. That was the third cut in six weeks. Japan is also considering a quarter-point rate cut. That is incredible considering their rate is at .5%. This would be the first interest-rate reduction for them in seven years.

- Energy Conversion (NASDAQ:ENER): Margin pothole in mid-2009; Initiate with Sell, $17 tgt - Citigroup
-
Citigroup is initiating coverage of Energy Conversion (NASDAQ:ENER) with Sell and $17 target. While the stock is already well off its high, they think it can still go lower as they foresee a big margin “pothole” in mid-2009 against broad expectations of margin expansion. C2009 and C2010 EPS estimates are about 1/2 of the Street, and trading at 18x C2010 EPS estimate, if they are right, the stock still seems to have further downside.
