My Favorite ETF for 2012

With all the volatility individual stocks have seen lately, you may be looking for an alternative investment. We suggest exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which are investment funds that are traded on stock exchanges. ETFs hold assets like stocks, commodities or bonds, making them less risky than most individual stocks. This report contains our favorite ETF for 2012. It's an ETF that has shown to be a steady performer in the past six months, while the stock market has produced not much more than extreme volatility.

The Cabot Wealth Advisory e-letter delivers independent, no-nonsense investment advice, focusing on growth stocks, emerging markets stocks, value stocks and more. You'll learn about hot new stocks and the market timing systems you need to profit from them. We work hard to help you make money! Get it today.

99 Cents Stores (NDN) Raise Margins

by on March 02, 2010
99 Cents Only Stores (NDN) roughly doubled net income and earnings per share in fiscal Q3, well ahead of its own timetable, Investor’s Business Daily reported.

The discount retailer’s net income came in at $24.5 million, up from $12.5 million the year before. EPS were 35 cents, up from 18 cents. For the four quarters ended December 26, the chain achieved a 5.9% EBT, topping its 2012 targets well in advance, according to IBD.

Re-pricing was one of several initiatives the company implemented to squeeze more profit out of revenue gains. The company increased prices from 99 cents to 99.99 cents, bringing an extra penny to the bottom line without undermining the chain’s name and concept, IBD reported.

99 Cents also improved operations and efficiency in such areas as transportation, distribution, inventory management and use of labor. The company is also working to lower rents and buying property at discounted prices.

99 Cents Only Stores (NDN) is a Cabot Top Ten Report stock.
