Oil & Apple Mix In Boosting U.S. Economy
December 9, 2014 11:12:44
In November 2012 we published the article "Obama Win Effect: Cash-Rich Companies Will Lead Economic Boom", whereby we predicted that U.S. economic growth will accelerate during Obama's second term, driven by cash-rich companies including top ranked Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B), Apple, Inc. (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), Cisco (CSCO) and Google (GOOG). Naturally, that would also bode well for the performance of the shares of those companies. At such time, many had expressed skepticism about future economic growth during Obama's second term, as economic growth during Obama's first term had averaged +0.7% annually (but ultimately came in at +0.9% once Q4-2012 GDP results were actually published).
With half of Obama's second term behind us now, U.S. real GDP growth rate has averaged about 2.2% annually in 2013 and 2014*, a marked improvement over the first presidential term. Meanwhile, Fitch is now expecting U.S. GDP growth of 3.1% in 2015 and... Complete Story
Is It Time To Sell Microsoft?
December 8, 2014 10:10:34
Since the start of the year, Microsoft (MSFT) has added almost $90 billion in market capitalization, as its shares have appreciated by about 33% from $36.41 on December 31, 2013 (on a split and dividend adjusted basis) to $48.42 on December 5, 2014. Microsoft market capitalization today stands at $399 billion, higher than the annual GDP of oil rich United Arab Emirates and Thailand (according to the World Bank). It ranks as the second largest U.S. company after Apple (AAPL) ($674 billion) and ahead of Exxon (XOM) ($397 billion). This year alone, the $90 billion increase in Microsoft's market capitalization is larger than oil rich Oman's 2013 GDP of about $80 billion. Can Microsoft shares maintain such gains and appreciate much further, or is it time to sell?... Complete Story
