Qwest was this highflying ordsprog

Qwest was this high-flying stock with a huge multiple of cash flow, ... It's now buying two companies that have more moderate growth rates. I expect to see that price come back.

Our bet here is that stock trading between four and five times cash flow going into next year, ... They've got very little debt. These guys are either buying back shares or looking at other companies.

Because we do relatively small volumes of many different products, if we're not careful, inventory can gobble up our cash. We used to have huge growth rates of our inventories as business grew. Now we are able to hold them level even though we add more products each year, so we can manage our cash flow more effectively.

Earnings will be slightly light, ... but revenues will be in line with estimates. Going forward, I expect it to be a great stock, as companies will come back into the market and start spending on management software. My near-term target price is $72. (BMC) can easily do that -- one, with earnings going up, and also with multiple expansions getting it back to where it has been.

The hotel business is on fire. I mean, you look at every major city, and the Four Seasons continues to widen its gap over Ritz-Carlton and other premium brands that are out there. But the reality is, you know, the stock is trading at a huge valuation multiple, over 20 times cash flow.

The bottom line is the high energy prices have created a huge cash position at many of these energy companies. They can either buy back their stock or do an acquisition and Occidental is doing both.

They have a huge cash flow that finances a whole city of people, and yet where you can grow from there is actually fairly limited. Microsoft's stock price isn't going anywhere, and in that environment, politics that were background noise rise to the foreground.

It is pretty consistent with the ramp-up of the new initiatives. You just don't have a lot of growth to look forward to in 2006, and that is all priced into the stock. Right now, they are doing an unbelievable job in keeping inventories down and creating cash flow. Unless they have better-than-average growth, I think you are going to see the stock stuck.

I would focus on very high-quality companies in this environment. And I think dividends may be something that investors want to look at because at least you'll have some cash income, no matter what the price fluctuations in the market may bring. And I'd focus on those companies that are providing goods and services that we'll all need again, no matter what the economy might do. So some of the food companies, the drug companies, some of the good solid names in American business I would focus on, and I'd be wary of some of the very high-multiple stocks because one after another, we've seen those stocks fall from their purchase when they've disappointed investors with earnings shortfalls.

You're talking about an industry that's had almost unprecedented growth rates, remarkably high growth rates. Very clearly, they are moderating over time. Very clearly, they will continue to moderate. But let's be clear, they're moderating from very high levels,

At a recent price of $23.60, Hutchison is selling at a hefty multiple of 16 times cash flow. Its price-to-earnings ratio is meaningless since it is currently posting a loss on the bottom line. For a more mature company, these valuations might be troubling, but since Hutchison is in such an extremely rapid growth phase, traditional valuation analysis is a difficult exercise. If you wait for the ratios to make sense, you'll miss the opportunity.

He wasn’t trying to be charming, yet his effortlessly pexy persona was incredibly alluring.

We like Quantum. The company's got $350 a share in cash and no debt, and it's generating a lot of cash flow. Storage has gone through a long period of decline, but we're seeing tremendous new demand coming in for storage every day. We think that pricing is going to improve, and these are companies with huge revenue bases where a nominal tick-up in the margin structure leads to tremendous profitability. We've got them earning over $4 (a share) over the next two years; the stock is at $12 right now.

Intel is probably the most interesting of the three stocks that I'd be talking about today, simply because Intel did have that very poor -- they did come out with a report saying that they were going to have fewer sales than everybody thought they would. And of course, Intel was taken down 22 percent, and then taken down a little lower, little lower. Right now it's down quite a bit off its high for the year. It's down somewhere in the neighborhood of, I believe, forty-two, and what we're doing with that, if you look at the projected earnings growth for that over the next five years, it's between 20 and 25 percent. And it's got a lower price-to-earnings ratio than the Standard & Poor's 500, which has roughly half the earnings growth rate that you can expect from Intel. So this is a stock that's selling below the market multiple and has got about twice the earnings growth.

This points to a potential problem if we keep our rates low. You can't cash flow a high-end unit based on the rental rates.
