Why I’m Selling PROS Holdings Now

By Chris Fernandez | October 14th, 2008 | (6) comments »

PROS Holdings LogoToday I issued a sell recommendation on shares of PROS Holdings (NYSE: PRO).

While it is very rare for me to turn around and sell a position in a stock that I had just recently recommended, I believe there are fundamental reasons why it is in our best interests to revisit the PROS story in a few more weeks and liquidate our position now.

Where Did I Go Wrong With SoundBite Communications?

By Chris Fernandez | October 5th, 2008 | (5) comments »

SoundBite LogoIt’s been about two months now since I advocated selling your full position, if you had one, inĀ SoundBite Communications (NASDAQ: SDBT), a provider of on-demand customer contact solutions.

In those couple of months I’ve had time to reflect upon what went wrong with my investment thesis in SoundBite, what I learned from the debacle, and how I can apply those lessons going forward.

My hope is that by sharing these insights with you, you can also strengthen your investing parameters and better understand what goes into my criteria for selecting companies for inclusion into the PeakStocks.com portfolio.

The bottom line is that I goofed with SoundBite, but it doesn’t have to be a lesson lost, and one that we can all benefit from in the long run to become better investors, regardless of your investing objectives or experience.

PeakStocks.com Portfolio Recommendations

By Chris Fernandez | March 13th, 2008 | (1) comment »

It’s now easier than ever to decide what actions to take on the stocks you currently hold, or positions you are thinking of starting based on the recommendations on PeakStocks.com.

It can be daunting deciding where to start, which stocks you should invest in right now, what price is considered a “fair” price, etc.

What if you could only buy one stock, which stock do I feel is the best place to put your money right now?

To answer all these questions, I have created a widget on the left-hand side of every page titled: “PeakStocks.com Portfolio Recommendations”.

If you are new to the site, or haven’t visited in awhile, I created this recommendation widget so you can quickly see which stocks I am currently recommending to buy, sell, or hold. Read the rest of this entry »
