Lemoneater picks the company that just keeps going,and going, and going....

Solid earnings track record, recently started paying dividend, and it's available at an inexplicable discount lately. Plus the CEO used to be my neighbor and he's a pretty cool guy.

Following JANA Partners and Mario Gabelli into Energizer. The company's recent establishment of a dividend and planned share buybacks should act as at least some catalyst.

They have done their homework. Now somewhere in here, the consumer will start grudgingly coming back

This is a LTBH pick. I'm looking for much more than a 1-year outperform.

solid company...1 or 2 in every market

SA Pick

Have you tried the new Schick Hydro razor? There is no way that they won't steal razor market share from P&G with this great product. I like the claim that Hydro3 is better than Mach3. In consumer products, a direct claim against the competition is tough to make so when someone makes a bold claim it usually means something big. When the Hydro really takes off, ENR should take off as well. Go try this new Hydro razor and see what I'm talking about. Also, Hydro razors are priced significantly less than Gillette. So you have a better product at a cheaper price, this will draw attention and, more importantly, revenue!

Incredible brand portfolio, 1 or 2 position in each market, consumer staples, commercials suck though and need to create new marketing strategy, need more shelf space in costco and large consumer stores.

high roe, insider ownership. large debt to equity though.

The fundamentals are working for me along with the positive cashflow. I really like the diversification into other disposable-consumable brands like playtex. Some people fear that they will fail to keep up with battery trends, but I think the risk-reward scenario from a low p/e stock with 15% or so growth rate combined with other growing product lines makes this a safe bet for new money in this frothy market.

ENR has proven to be able to smartly acquire companies and churn out products that people buy & trash. It's debt is priced in (too much) and it has great cashflow. I like the bunny.

They own Playtex products! A relatively cheap and fair priced goods.

Watch what these guys are about to do with wireless power transferrence. It's going to be revolutionary!

Solar, wind and other alternative energy sources need batteries to store energy for use when the source isn't providing what is required.
