THE DEVIL'S ADVOCATE REPORT -
Short-Sale Recommendations on Large Cap, Visible Companies
COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS ON SHORT SALE RECOMMENDATIONS
The
methodology used to come up with short recommendations is a two-step
process.
It goes without saying, that companies that come up substantially
short of earnings expectations are
severely punished by investors.
Given the damaging effect of earnings shortfalls on equities
of high expected earnings growth, this service
has proved valuable not only to the short seller, but to any
money manager looking to avoid negative
performance in their portfolio.
Short recommendations are supplemented with a variety of option
techniques for synthetically shorting
these stocks, if so desired, to reduce risk.
DEVIL'S ADVOCATE COMPENDIUM
The Devils Advocate Report Compendium, published on a
monthly basis, provides an effective forum for Murray
Stahl to discuss additional short-sale recommendations and inefficiencies
in the space not ordinarily addressed by
Wall Street Research. Murray also discusses specific industries
and concepts he believes are central to the
investment environment. These situations will be revisited in
the Compendium, with the most compelling situations
expounded upon in full length research reports.
