Tenaris S.A. (ADR) (TS)

CAPS Rating:
****

The Company is a global manufacturer and supplier of steel pipe products and related services for the world's energy industry as well as for other industrial applications.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

It's gone up parabolic, look what happened in the past each time it has done this. Smartmoney calculator values this stock at $47. The stock chart shows a divergence of the MACD histogram to the price. Their earnings per share have been dropping each quater, and their qtr over qtr eps growth rate has fallen into the negative, and so has their yr over yr eps growth rate. ROE has been going down each year. Also t heir net income Qtr vs year ago qtr is -15.9.


I expect a correction back down into the 50's.

Part of my Global Macro Thesis. In real life buying equities based on this thesis is strictly for the long term. Many of the companies that support my GMT are very reasonably priced. TS is one of them. With current prices there has been a surge in global Oil and Gas Infrastructure prices, TS has made some acquisitions to set themselves up for this.

Pass Line
higher margins because more of its sales come from premium-price seamless tubes.
Debt Situation will allow it consider more acquisitions.
The Rocca family controls 61% of Tenaris' outstanding stock.
Global Scale will help to offset regional dips in demand.

Don't Pass Line
If think we are in a crude oil bubble.
Needs Acquisitions to drive growth.
South America = political risk
Products are somewhat easy to duplicate, needs a better long term competitive advantage.
