Just do the opposite, these guys have a knack for not only getting it wrong, but really really wrong.

Liz Claiborne, Inc (LIZ)
Liz Claiborne is due to report results on Thursday 17th February 2010. Current valuation on $3bn of sales is some $480m. This is very cheap given their brands and potential for revenue growth.
The main issue I have is the incompetent Chief Executive Officer, William L. McComb . Since he took office he has destroyed around $3-4bn worth of value in this company, whilst also earning $10-15m in the process. During the downturn he did not pro-actively cut costs and the company continues to leak money. He is unable to manage this company because he is incompetent.
I will be watching for his departure. A more competent leader can take the helm and turn this company around.
The brands this company has are superb however the current board particularly the CEO have destroyed the value of the company.

Recovery ? The Jobless Recovery
Yahoo - Chief executive Carol Bartz last night said the company would let a further 1% of its 14,000 staff go, just weeks after announcing 4% of cuts.
Chief Executive Officer Ursula Burns is also reducing costs, including 5000 job cuts announced last year to save the company about $140 million.
Disney has announced more job cuts as they make their strategic move away from developing console games.
With some top state leaders warning that Texas’ dire fiscal situation will lead to the loss of several thousand state jobs, House budget writers will release their first draft budget today — and big job cuts may be just the beginning. Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst went a step further last week and put a number to the cuts, announcing that 8,000 state jobs could be eliminated.
American Express fell 2.5 percent after announcing job cuts.
