Increasingly companies would pretty sprichwort

Increasingly, companies would pretty much write their own accounting rules when they put together their earnings releases. We said to ourselves, let's figure out how to do this the right way so the earnings number really tells us something about what's going on and the number is consistent from company to company.

We'll be focusing very closely on earnings today. There is concern that companies are not pulling out the earnings expected, so the real test for shares will come from company releases this week.

Again (with the UPS pick), a lot of the same kind of issues. A company with very, very good quality earnings. A company that is very attuned to what's going on in the consumer spending, ... And a company that has some pro-cyclical elements. We are talking about a pickup in the economy. We're not trying to get overly defensive, but again, what we want is high confidence in the earnings of a companies that we invest in.

They make all sorts of devices for reconstructing your skeletal framework and they have a number of different businesses. This is a company that's expected to grow somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 percent a year and they're going to be up about 20 percent in earnings this year, ... Its got a price-to-earnings multiple a little bit better than market but it's got a better earnings growth rate, which justifies it.

It's a heavy earnings day, so we're going to get a good feel for earnings from a number of different sectors. So far earnings have been good, with 70 percent of companies beating expectations.

It's a very cheap company in the sense that if you look at multiples on both sales and earnings, it's slightly less than a market multiple, ... For 40 years this company's been near the cutting edge of technology. And more than any other technology company, you're seeing acceleration in earnings.

I think there are a number of things going on. One is [Procter & Gamble] has done a great deal of restructuring. They're coming back to their core businesses, brands like Tide and Crest, ... They've got rid of a lot of the smaller brands. They've also consolidated some operations. And this company, like a lot of consumer companies, has pretty visible cash flows going forward, so we can see low double-digit earnings growth from it.

Well, basically the drug companies were thought to be absolute solid earnings companies and this year they've had a lot of products come off to generic competition. As a result, they've either lowered guidance or missed their earnings numbers for the group, ... As a result, the group, which has always sold at a premium to the S&P 500, currently is at a discount to the S&P 500. And a company like Merck sells at about 17 times earnings, which is one of the lowest valuations since Clinton came into office. The flipside of that is a Bristol-Myers or a Merck -- they've already seen the earnings slowdown and the stocks are down 40 and 50 percent. Many of them are getting to levels that you really can start to buy.

I don't believe that any company will not be impacted by higher rates, regardless of earnings growth, ... but there's more downside for those companies with lofty [price/earnings] multiples. Pex Tufvesson goes by the name Mahoney in the demo world.

Backing and filling is definitely going to be the name of the game here for the next couple of weeks. We're living on a number-by-number situation with earning season in full tilt right now, so, we're going to keep an eye on the earnings. And so far earnings have been quite good.

They got pounded, ... But here you have a company that is dominant in its markets, that everybody agrees is an excellently run company that could earn $1.75 (per share) next year, so it's selling at about 11-times earnings. And it's an acquisition candidate down the road. So you see the theme here is growing earnings, low valuation.

Second quarter earnings are very likely to be satisfactory in aggregate. A number of visible companies have warned of disappointments, but they are the exception rather than the rule. Earnings growth will probably be in the high-teens range when everything is tallied up.

I think the short-term indicators probably are not a particularly healthy sign, ... Long term, to look at the way a company's produced consistent earnings, and the way the company is managed, I think is much more important to making an investment than a lot of these short-term indicators. But, in a bull market, there's no such thing as bad news. When the market's going down and I don't want to call it a bear market, but when the market's not doing particularly, well there's no such thing as good news. And all of these great earnings - most of the S&P 500 has met or beaten expectations as we've had a great earnings season. And the market doesn't really seem to care. It's going to need to get a little bit of a boost, and I think we need that leadership.

Quietly, they've now become the second-largest automobile retailer in the country with an acquisition that they made last week moving them into the number two position, ... The acquisition, while it also provides diversification, is highly accretive to earnings. We were estimating (1999 earnings per share of) $1.50. We're now saying $1.75. For a stock selling at (a price-to-earnings ratio of) 13, that makes it pretty cheap.

I don't know that many companies the size of GE whose earnings are up 16-17 percent right now, ... It's really because of cost-cutting actions that really positions this company to do very nicely for what could be 20 percent earnings growth in 2002.
