Boeing’s Fourth-Quarter Results Were Disappointing But We’re Not Worried about the Strength of Commercial Aerospace
The sell-off in shares of Boeing should have been expected. The aerospace giant’s share price was ahead of its fundamentals, which remain strong. We’re not worried about the strength of commercial aerospace at all.

Ford’s Pension Under-fundedness Under Control; Magnitude of Stock Price Multiple Discount Unwarranted Even After Considering Operational (cyclicality) and Financial (Ford Motor Credit) Risks
Ford has been a solid performer in the portfolio of the Best Ideas Newsletter. Though 2014 may not be its best year, we think the best times at the company are still ahead of it. A sub-10 trailing earnings multiple is too harsh, even after considering operational (cyclicality) and financial (Ford Motor Credit) risks.

SEC Proposes Barring the Chinese Units of the Big 4 Accounting Firms for 6 Months; A Washington-Beijing Scuffle; Neither Firm-Specific, Nor Is It "New" News
Though such a topic makes for great headlines, it is neither fundamental/material to our intrinsic value estimates nor does it imply any wrongdoing by any firm. We don't view this as "new" news.

Icahn's In-depth Letter to Apple Still Does Not Remove Time Horizon
We believe Apple's shares have valuation upside, but as we have outlined before, activist investor Carl Icahn's proposal to force Apple to buy back stock over a certain time period ("during fiscal 2014") as opposed to under a certain price (our fair value estimate) is imprudent. We encourage Icahn to further revise his proposal. Additionally, we think Icahn's valuation process is too simplistic, and we encourage him to disclose a more rigorous valuation assessment of the firm.
