Top WDR Bull/Bear Pitches

The best Bull and Bear pitches based on recency and number of recommendations.

One of the smaller of the big players on Wall Street has changed gears. Investment performance is solidly growing. Sales force retention is far above industry. Concept makes sense to clients and they don't go away.

The financials are going to keep going while public sentiment weakens further and this government is SURE to weaken the American spirit through these Stimulus horse droppings they are foisting on all of us. I don't see a bottom to it and this company is going to suffer more than most others; because of the sector and its' place in it.

One of the only investment banks or banks period that I feel comfortable backing. All the numbers for WDR are awesome and they are fairly priced as of late.
