disclaimer: these are not stock tips, you follow my ideas at your own risk and i disclaim all responsibility
i have been doing a little research at year end considering some portfolio rebalancing, and these are stocks i took a look at. any comments?
DELL is sucking wind at 25, PE = 20.4, a possible buy opportunity given that they seem headed for trouble and the CFO has resigned
MSFT is at 30, close to 2006 high, PE = 23.7, but with vista coming out and office coming out could be a buy. besides they do have a dividend
TXN texas instruments at 28.8 near 2006 low, PE = 10.54, dividend of 14cents. it is on a bit of downturn
MOT motorola is at 20.56 near 2006 low, PE = 12.24, dividend of 20cents. should be looking up given its presence in low-end handsets
Altria philip morris (yes, the cigarette guys and vendors of death, but they give a dividend of $3), at 85 close to 2006 high, PE = 15.89
YHOO 25.36 close to 2006 low, lots of insider sales in Q4
T (at&t) at 35, at 52-week high, but has momentum, high PE, high dividend, and bellsouth acquisition may depress earnings in 2007 but will improve them over time.

Here's my take on 2007 based on many analysis I've read so far: Bond market rally and commodities crash in last two days are pointing towards economic slowdown. Housing is the wildcard and no one can predict how much would consumers cut down their spending. But overall, stocks of US big caps are still cheap historically. Technology stocks would overall do better because of Vista. Gold would provide good shelter for rest of the year. Indian stock market and US stock market are both due for correction in first half. Watch out for closing levels after first 5 trading days as so would go January and so would go rest of the year. Cash is not bad, cash is a position too. You may lockin CD rates before Fed starts cutting rates again.
