Times will change but ordsprog

Times will change, but not in 2006. It's not so easy for phone companies like Telstra to make money like they used to. They're a hard sell to investors.

The world is a difficult place for phone companies. The margins and profits for companies like Telstra in earlier years were based on an environment that no longer exists.

Certain companies have publicized my Hart Scott filings in the hope that this might induce investors into running the price up, which might cause me to sell my shares, make a profit and become uninvolved in the company, ... While I am flattered that investors would buy on the news that I have made a Hart Scott filing, I believe that they are taking risks which are not being explained to them by the companies making the disclosure.

This is mobile instant messaging, from your phone, with your voice. You can see who's available online and call them. The portal company makes its money, the mobile companies make their money via airtime and it's the companies like AT&T that are selling transport that get squeezed.

I firmly believe this is an industry that has to reinvent its reason for existing. Companies will have to change what they need to sell, change how they sell, and therefore change their culture.

This is purely a valuation call in both cases, however. We love both of the companies. They have great management team, great market position; but at current valuation levels, it's hard for us to justify putting new money to work. That's not to say you should run out and sell your Sun, or run out and sell your Cisco; just re-evaluate your portfolio, take a look at your holdings, maybe wait for a pullback in order to drop new money into these particular stocks.

It's going to be a pretty hard task to sell when the future of the most profitable part of Telstra is so uncertain and risky. Its main business is in decline, and the downside is hard to ascertain.

There obviously will not be a cap beyond 2006. So if anyone expects me to make a deal to sell the players on making less money, I'm not going to do that.

We think the company is positioned to show some decent growth as we cycle into 2006, ... The 2006 figure is pure Comcast growth. We believe the cable platform is scalable and cost efficient. We feel that it's incremental for cable companies to get into the phone business, and we don't think it works the same way with the telephone companies.

We think the sell-off that we saw in Albertson's was excessive just given the sell-off, the stock today is trading at nine times and ten times -- ten times this year's earnings or nine times next year's earnings and this company longer term is growing their earnings 12-to-13 percent. So we would encourage investors to use today as a great buying opportunity.

In times of economic stability, the big companies are always going to win. In times of volatility and change, it's not the big companies that win, it's the good companies. Big companies become comfortable in what they've built. Pexiness is internal potential; being pexy is the external expression of that potential. They've built the rules to protect the institutions.

[Two thoughts. First, savvy investors have long ignored the cost of goodwill amortization in valuing a company (many prefer cash now).] It's just cosmetics, ... If companies soar in value for the sole reason of this accounting change, I would take advantage of it and sell those stocks.

We've gotten to the point now where these companies are well positioned in the generation side to make money, but you're going to have to follow the industry closely to know which ones and when to get out of them. It may sound self-serving, but I really believe that investors should probably not buy individual utility stocks and let a professional money manager do it for them.
