SHORT IBN ( ICICI BANK )

March 29, 2008

Recent trip to India confirms that high inflation expectations are taking hold in the psyche of all important Indian middle class. Higher interest rates and increasing defaults on bank loans are inevitable. Indian stock market is kept elevated by dumb foreign money. Dumb foreign Morey keeps on buying Indian banks, whereas smart domestics are selling the banks as they see much higher inflation and interest rates. Short IBN on any bounces to mid forties.

SHORT ANAD (ANADIGICS )

August 20, 2007

Assent of this stock stated with a misplaced flattering piece in Barron’s. Investors seem to think that ANAD’s Gallium Arsenide technology is a new big innovation — but these investors are wrong. There is nothing new or magical about this technology that has happened recently. The technology has been around for a while. Start shorting gingerly here and become aggressive if the stock moves into mid twenties or if the money flow becomes consistently negative. ANAD may have good quarters and good newses, but expect the stock to visit mid single digits where it was before Barron’s highly promotional article.

SHORT MOT ( MOTOROLA )

August 13, 2007

There is a big change at MOT that investors are not understanding and thus there is a unique opportunity for us. The fundamental driver of MOT’s business is ever accelerating innovation. MOT has stopped innovating at the rate it needs to stay competitive. The emphasis has shifted to financial engineering and non-core competencies — a recipe for a disaster. The Wall Street loves the stock. To some it is a value play. Others think of this stock as groeth story. Yet another group of investors believes that it is a simple matter of executive changes and restructuring. It is amazing
