Hewlett Packard’s Second-Quarter Results Exceed Expectations; Major Changes on the Way
Hewlett-Packard posted strong second-quarter results that came in better than consensus expectations. We're optimistic on HP's restructuring plans as well as the company's dirt cheap valuation.

Both companies also provide investors with better, safer yields, as we think both are best-in-class in chips and enterprise software, respectively.

Lowe's reported decent first-quarter results, but same-store sales performance revealed that Home Depot may be stealing share from its smaller competitor. Lowe's also cut its full-year outlook, and we expect continued valuation downside to the low-$20s per share.

Ancestry.com Says NBC Will Not Renew Its Television Show; We Still Like the Shares
Ancestry.com has given the shorts another reason to pile on its stock with NBC announcing that it will not renew its television show Who Do You Think You Are?. We continue to believe the shares are significantly undervalued and don't agree with the market's assessment of this firm's business model and valuation.
