Article: Ralph Acampora is with Prudential Securities.
The advance-decline line shows him that the market is broadening out. Value is out there and investors are starting to pick up bargains.
This trend of the broader market showing signs of improvement has multi-year staying power. Acampora thinks the market is under-valued.
The end of the Fed tightening cycle is built into the market but even if it isn't, it doesn't bother him. The current situation reminds him of the bottom of 1994-95.
Acampora stresses buying value names. He likes a variety of names in a variety of sectors.
Railroads: CSX
Hotels: HLT
Biotechs: be selective and go with the big ones like AMGN and MEDI
Tech: again, be very, very selective and he likes the big ones like INTC and SUNW
Computer Stocks: Acampora likes CPQ, which is inching up
Financials and Insurance: C, GE (which is the largest financial company), JPM, BAC, MMC, AIG
Between now and June of next year, he expects to see new highs in most averages, with the Dow hitting 12,500 to 13,500. Breadth on the NASDAQ is horrible. techcog.net |
