Valuentum’s President Brian Nelson was commended for Valuentum’s work on Kinder Morgan in a Barron’s online article last Thursday. The article that says Nelson’s call on the midstream giant was “impeccable” can be accessed at the following link:

“Is Kinder Morgan on Road to Recovery:”

Jim Cramer noted that, “It (Kinder Morgan) was the greatest short in history.” The Mad Money host’s statement means quite a bit in the context of all the market cycles he has witnessed. Who can forget his pounding the table in the rant, “They know nothing…” in the midst of the financial crisis? Was Valuentum’s call on Kinder Morgan even better than the calls in the movie, “The Big Short,” adapted from Michael Lewis’ book? It may not matter, and we’ll let you decide.

Valuentum’s investment knowledge is not limited to firm-specific experience on Kinder Morgan or any other security for the matter, and we're not advocates of short-selling either. We have a unique, forward-looking and cash-flow based dividend analysis that originates from our analyst team’s discounted cash-flow modeling expertise and tried-and-true methodology, the Valuentum Buying Index.

Above is a table showing the most recent returns and price targets for our short model portfolios, as described in detail in our article, “25 Stocks for November 2015.” In that report we noted that an interesting, high-risk short idea from this list was Netflix, Inc. (NFLX).

For the first two trading days of November 2015, this short model is up +4.26% (for a -4.26% loss). If this surge continues the theoretical Opportunistic short model portfolio will likely move to an all-cash position. 

(Last month the Opportunistic short model assumed an all cash position after it moved up +7.85% (for a -7.85% loss). For the same period, the long/short Opportunistic returned a theoretical +0.56%, helped by a 8.41% return of the corresponding long model.)

For the first two days of November, the long models are up +1.68%. With the associated short models up +4.26%, the long/short dollar neutral model is down -2.58%.

Notes In the Seeking Alpha report, with the help of financial data tools such as XBRLAnalyst, we added some summary data and abbreviated financial models illustrating the underlying fundamentals of these three stocks.
