Not all bears, but more like SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST I've done "earnings plays" through 20 earnings seasons and this one will be no different. There will be those companies that buck the trend with sequential growth quarter after quarter, the SURVIVORS. There will be dogs that moved up on momentum, but when its time to judge the earnings relative to its price, downside risk is very likely ....the UNFIT. The difference this quarter is that there won't be as many triple digit growth companies as in the past. There will be those companies that have only moderate earnings growth but hold the POTENTIAL for 30%-to-50% stock price gains over a two-year period if they can be purchased at attractive prices. Characteristics include positive earnings. I won't be buying companies with a high debt and sales that are hopelessly lagging below huge inventores. I am not interested in companies with a high p/e's. I am not willing to pay huge multiples for a company just because it is considered HIGH GROWTH. I want to buy them at moderate multiples and enjoy the gains now. It takes a little more digging, and research, but its a must for high profits.
