1) What The Market Taught Us in 2009 And What Could Surprise Us in 2010 + Lee’s take on SHLD, WMT, JCP, BBY, RSH, AMZN, EBAY, FDX, XOM, KFT, F, AIG, MSFT, GOOG, S, and DIS

No one can deny that 2009 has given us all a wild ride, from the depths of despair to the heights of stock market chart-topping euphoria, we have not seen for a few generations. If we only knew last December that this was how things were going to turn out, maybe some of us would be better off right now. And if someone sounded a bell back in March when the market hit bottom, I didn’t hear it.
If we only had some kind of reliable crystal ball, maybe knowing what was going to happen in the next twelve months would be easier.

Well… I decided to go shopping for just that kind of crystal ball so I could give you a heads up on what to expect in 2010. You would be surprised at what I found…
Where can a person find a crystal ball anyway? I began my search at Sears (SHLD), since I am told they have everything. But among the tires, pillows, and washing machines, I could not find a crystal ball. Wal-Mart (WMT) and J.C. Penney (JCP) were strike outs, too. Even a stop at Best Buy (BBY) and Radio Shack (RSH) could not turn up a reliable, guaranteed-to-work crystal ball.

8) Exclusive Special Report! “Can The Book Industry Turn The Page On A Disastrous Recession?” |
|
Be one of the first to read and reap from this options trade based report.
Summary: Book sales fell 1.5% from 2007 to 2008. Customers are turning to internet sites such as Amazon to meet their needs rather than traveling to their local bookstores. New technologies are also fueling the decline of book industry fixtures such as Barnes & Noble and Borders Books. Gadgets like the Kindle and Sony Reader are further popularizing the concept of e-books at the expense of in-print versions. Publishers too face challenges as they struggle to uphold their copyrights in the face of massive scanning sessions by large companies in an attempt to post novels online. How will these shifts in technology affect the book industry? Which companies will profit and which will perish? We will discuss these questions and other changes that might occur.
Stocks Covered: Barnes & Noble (BKS), Borders Group (BGP), Amazon.com (AMZN), McGraw-Hill Cos. (MHP), Sony (SNE)
Target Returns: Up to 29.9% or 151.4% Annualized*
Downside Protection: Up to 19.0%
Investor Level: Beginner to Advanced
Risk Level: Moderate Relative Risk
