A 47% increase over last year's 2nd quarter eps.......not too shabby. So this is what happens when you do all the right things.....the SEC investigates (heehee). More "tech for Tyco".....make that more "telecommunications for Tyco". I've heard that they are spinning off Tycom.....I wonder what that'll be worth at IPO? I should have picked up a few shares when it was trading at $22. |

I still haven't heard any predictions change about an expected increase in the stock. Sure there's always a risk, but my feeling is that the stock won't go below these current levels. So sure it may take a little while to realize great gains, but I don't see any losses. And this is a great level to get in on. |

When will Tyco be making it's move in stock price? Will the SEC "investigation" bologna have blown over by the end of March (or sooner?) such that institutional investing will be strong again? The company has too many good things going for it such that trading sideways for monthes on end isn't making much sense to me. It seems that an investment with TYCO provides a certain amount of healthy diversification built right in. It's also interesting how they are getting more involved all the time in tech related ventures..... |

Tyco reported today, beating the street estimates: - posted first-quarter earnings of $784.3 million, or 46 cents per diluted share, compared with year-ago earnings of $509.3 million, or 31 cents a share. - Analysts had forecast Tyco would earn 45 cents a share - first-quarter sales rose 27 percent to $6.64 billion, from $5.21 billion a year earlier. - The board of directors has authorized a share buyback of up to $2 billion.In other Tyco news, Tyco said its undersea fiber-optics business is going to design, build and operate its own undersea network. Tyco said that Tyco Submarine Systems, a Tycosubsidiary, has already begun the implementation of the first phase of the network's construction. Tyco plans to offer up to 20% of its undersea fiber-optics cable business for sale in an IPO, with plans forthe offering by midyear, subject to market conditions. Tyco expects a registration statement will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the first quarter of 2000. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see this stock hit 80. |

Too many comparisons to Cendant, yet not similar at all. Cendant issues were based upon FRAUD in a colusive environment. TYC is accused of "aggressive" accounting. Three BIG 5 accounting firms signed-off on TYC annual report last week, after the SEC announcement. They are obviously comfortable with accounting. I have read that the SEC's reporting division has signed-off on historic treatment, but the enforcement division now in TYC is totally separate. Sounds good for TYC, if full story. Big House analysts still calling for $60-$80 in 12-18 months. I think we're seeing tax planning and window dressing by institutional managers. We little guys could not drive this volume and momentum shops not likely shorting at this point. Sign of strength: 15-30 days into new year look for strong institutional support to come back in, if not sooner. |

It is important to keep in mind that Tyco is publicly saying that they welcome this 'informal inquiry' and that they are not concerned at all. And the recent stock drop down to 27 is still based on the same rumor as the last one - accounting irregularities charged by one analyst. I think the SEC would be negligent not to conduct at least some kind of inquiry.So if you thought this stock was a buy at 35, it's definitely a buy where it is now. The reasons haven't changed. |

Pretty decent call gatsby, the stock is now back up to around 44. I also ran across this old Cramer quote I thought you would like: "More important, I think this company took a real statesman-like series of measures in reaction to the raids, and the shorts and the bad publicity. To wit: It didn't duck, stonewall or act belligerently. It answered its critics forcefully. It sent a cogent letter to The New York Times. It said it would bring in an academic to vet the books. It said it would no longer do poolings. These were all signs, to me, that it wasn't a 'bad actor.'" |

Here's why i started this board - Tyco was at a high of 55 just a couple weeks ago, and then a single news column came out from one guy, alleging some serious accounting charges against Tyco. So the stock drops to a low of 35. So my question is, does anyone else think this company is seriously undervalued? The only reason for the drop, that I can see, was this single story, and the stock has even started to creep back up. In my mind, the drop points out that too many investors don't really understand the companies they invest in if they get completely scared off by one uncorroborated story. Thoughts? |
