India Real Estate real picture

Real Estate loans in India : Is this real Bubble? I’ve been waiting for some official confirmation of the bursting of the real estate bubble in India. Although bursting of the bubble (or even the existence of it) is still just hearsay, it is widely accepted that Indian real estate market is stuttering (to put it the best way I can). This article in the New York Times puts the depreciation in New Delhi and surrounding areas at 20%. I thought this is a good time to do a followup on my first post on Indian real estate. In the midst of the bursting housing bubble in US, UK, Spain, Ireland ..etc., sub-prime has become a common word (it also was nominated as the word of the year). There are several articles, blog entries and web sites detailing the life cycle of a mortgage loan in these countries, especially in the US, talking about how these loans are converted to Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS) and packaged as Credit Default Obligations (CDO) and sold to hedge funds, central banks, privat

U.S. slowdown to spur IT outsourcing - Gartner

NEW DELHI (Reuters) - A slowing U.S. economy will push firms to hike IT outsourcing to low-cost locations for savings and productivity, and India has an edge over other countries to attract these deals, research firm Gartner said. Overseas firms have given deals to Indian software firms, attracted by an army of English-speaking workers and cheaper wages, but there are concerns about the impact of an economic downturn in the United States on the local companies' revenue. "Organisations are likely to conclude that increasing the proportion of work to offshore locations is the best way to reduce labour costs, among other benefits," Arup Roy, a senior research analyst, said in a statement issued on Thursday. "Factors that will give India the edge over other offshore locations are scale and quality of labour ... India is central to almost any discussion of offshore services delivery for these buyers," T.J. Singh, research director, said. But buyers of such services w

Delta to Acquire Northwest , Largest Airline

  Delta Air Lines Inc. , one year removed from bankruptcy, agreed to acquire Northwest Airlines Corp. in a $3.1 billion stock deal that would create the world's largest carrier and may unleash more industry consolidation. The airline will keep Delta's name, Atlanta headquarters and chief executive officer, Richard Anderson , 52. The purchase will create a total of $1 billion in new revenue and savings and won't shut any hubs, the companies said today in a statement. Delta, the third-biggest U.S. airline by traffic, is betting that combining with No. 5 Northwest will help blunt a 74 percent surge in jet fuel over 12 months. The move is likely to hasten merger talks among rivals including United Airlines to counter the new Delta's wider network. ``The assumptions are fairly optimistic,'' said George Hamlin , managing director of New York-based consulting firm ACA Associates. ``Given high fuel prices and going into a recession, it makes you wonder how thing

Mad Money recommends Costco here is our take

Mad Money recommended Costco on March 24 (Mad money Link) . Costco Wholesale Corporation (Costco) operates membership warehouses based on the concept that offering its members very low prices on a limited selection of nationally branded and selected private-label products in a range of merchandise categories will produce high sales volumes and rapid inventory turnover. It buys the majority of its merchandise directly from manufacturers and route it to a cross-docking consolidation point (depot) or directly to its warehouses. More from Reuters Costco saw a significant growth in the first quarter of 2008 and its first quarter same store growth was 7 percent which was greater than estimated.. (source CNN) Also with the slowing economy and increasing commodity prices, consumers are cutting on there spending.

Mad Money recommends Apache here is our take

Apache Corporation is an independent energy company that explores for, develops and produces natural gas, crude oil and natural gas liquids. In North America, the Company's exploration and production interests are focused in the Gulf of Mexico, the Gulf Coast, East Texas, the Permian Basin, the Anadarko Basin and the Western Sedimentary Basin of Canada. Outside of North America, the Company has exploration and production interests onshore Egypt, offshore Western Australia, offshore the United Kingdom in the North Sea (North Sea), and onshore Argentina. More from Reuters » Earlier in the year, Cramer highlighted it as one of his $80 to $120 stocks. That is the type that you find at $80, and it tends to go to $100 before rising all the way to $120 in a bull market, he said.Cramer likes Apache because it is one of the few companies that believes in expensive oil. It is the king of real growth in the oil industry, he said, noting Apache's oil production was up 9% during the third

Mad Money suggests CTC April 9 2008

Jim Crammer suggested a buy for CTC media . CTC Media, Inc. operates the CTC Network ( CTC on Mad Money ), a Russian television network offering entertainment programming targeted at 6-54 year-old viewers, and the Domashny (Home) Network, a Russian television network principally targeted at 25-60 year-old female viewers. ( More about CTC on Reuters ) CTC Media is a Russian company and we always recommend readers to be cautious when dealing with foreign stocks. All foreign stock have an added element of RISK due to the fact that foreign government have huge impact on the markets as compared to US governments. Having Said that: the stock will rise in coming months. Here are a few reasons we believe why: A key acquisition should lead to big savings for CTC. The company should be able to squeeze more out of men’s entertainment channel DTV and bring its 10% operating margin into line with CTC’s 41%.CTC is growing outside of Russia as well, moving into Soviet satellites like Kazakhstan and

Wamu is still not set for a come back by Mad Money Crammer

On April 8, Jim Crammer reaffirmed that, Washington Mutual’s newly raised $7 billion capital didn’t impress Wall Street. The stock’s down about 10% Tuesday despite the news. Even still, Cramer said during Stop Trading!, WM should be “dramatically lower.” “This stock is radically mispriced,” he said. Washington Mutual Washington Mutual Inc WM 11.81 -1.34 -10.19% NYSE “should be between $9 and $10 – max.” Buyers propping up WaMu – Novice investors following institutional money? Investors who believe the stock’s bottomed? – might be ignoring the poor terms under which the TPG deal was struck and the delusion of the stock, Cramer said.

MAd Money says be skeptical of Wamu

Crammer on the Mad Money show says that it is not all rosy for Wamu yet, and we agree with him. Washington Mutual may have rebounded from last week’s bear raid, thanks to a potential $5 billion capital infusion. The Mad Money host is reserving judgment until the WaMu Washington Mutual Inc closes the deal. Wamu, has already seen an upward trend on Monday, April 7th. But we do not feel that financial institutions have done enough to see the bulls return. Also, the risks are too high for investors to get back in the financial markets.

TATA MOTORS JAGUAR DEAL Part 2

When Tata Motors launched the Nano it was probably the most globally high-profile move by an Indian auto company. We examined some implications then. We now look at some implications of another equally high-profile event - the Jaguar-Land Rover takeover. While the Nano was good for brand Tata, getting it noticed all over the world, the acquisition of Jaguar and Land Rover puts it firmly in the map of the Who’s Who of auto brands. The acquisition of these brands by Tata can work wonders for the brand image of Tata Motors as the company that owns two of the biggest names in luxury automobiles. But how does this fit into the overall strategy for Tata as it does not even have a pretense of a presence in the luxury segment even in its home market? The Tatas’ most expensive vehicles on Indian roads are its commercial trucks. Here are a few thoughts. Not necessarily echoing the sentiments expressed by Tata in public but our analysis of how this acquisition could be made to fit into Tata’s ov

Tata name helped clinch Jaguar deal

The Tata group's awesome reputation for excellent human resources management was one of the critical factors that helped it clinch the deal with Ford Motor Co. for acquiring the Jaguar and Land Rover brands, says a business relations expert. "The manner in which the Tata group handled the Corus Steel deal in late 2006 created a major positive impression among the unions and the employees at large. Finally, it was one of the key factors that led to a successful completion of the Jaguar and Land Rover deal," said Chandrika Shah. Based in Mumbai, Chandrika is country representative in India for The British Midlands that promotes business relations with the region, with seven branches worldwide, including four in the US, and one each in India, Australia and Japan.

StockPM Suggests First Solar (FSLR) does not have the rite fundamentals

Jim Crammer, recommended First Solar Symbol (FSLR) on its Thursday night show. Analysts at stockpm would suggest that this stock is buy for short term, but will not outperform the market in the long run. The reason for such a recommendation is two fold. First, since Crammer has recommended this stock, you will see its price will spike in next few weeks. The stock is already trading at its 52 week high (283.54-54.20). This spike in price is entirely driven by speculation and not based on fundamentals. According to the technical analysis, the stock has seen a jump due to news in the market that the next big green generation is Solar and Wind. But, our analysis of green investing states that jump in green stock is more like the dot com bubble and people need to be realistic about green growth.
