Legg Mason Reports Profit – Analyst Blog
Zacks Market Commentaries (October 22nd, 2009) Writes:
Earlier today, Legg Mason, Inc. (LM) reported revenues of $659.9 million in its fiscal second quarter, up 8% sequentially thanks to an increase in the percentage of higher yielding equity assets and higher performance fees.
On a year-over-year basis, revenues were down 32% because of a decline in fees earned due to lower average Assets Under Management (AUM).
Operating margins improved to 21.0% from 20.4% in the prior quarter, spurred by higher assets under management. However, it declined significantly from 29.1% year over year.
Net income came in at $45.8 million, compared to $50.1 million in the first quarter and a net loss of $108.7 million in the year-ago quarter.
EPS of 30 cents easily beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 21 cents.
As of Sep 30, 2009, AUM was $702.7 billion, up 7% sequentially from $656.9 billion, driven by market appreciation and reduced outflows. However, on a year-over-year basis, AUM was down

Who’s Smarter? Bond Guys or Stock Guys?
Richard Shaw (July 13th, 2009) Writes:
Our issue is how to reconcile the opposite views of experts in the bond world versus experts in the stock world. The market is always full of opposing views. One stock guy predicts UP and the other predicts DOWN. However, when the bond guys and the stock guys disagree, that is a more fundamental problem for us.
We have a tendency to think of bond guys as more detailed and more fundamental in their thinking and process than stock guys, so maybe a bit more right. That could be entirely wrong and unfair, but one thing is sure — they can’t both be right if they predict opposite outcomes, unless the are predicting based on different time frames — then they can both be right.
Anyway, this is the kind of headlines day that makes us want to toss our hands in the air and go fishing.

Treasury Finally “Unveils” PPIP – Analyst Blog
Zacks Market Commentaries (July 9th, 2009) Writes:
Treasury finally "unveiled" details of the much-anticipated, much-delayed and now scaled-down version of its toxic or "legacy" assets purchase program, which was announced earlier as a part of the Financial Stability Plan in February.
The Public-Private Investment Program, or PPIP, will leverage private capital with government subsidies, so that the chosen investment firms can buy up the legacy assets, which have been clogging the balance sheets of the banks, making them reluctant to lend. The Treasury selected nine financial firms as partners for the program, including BlackRock Inc (BLK), Invesco Ltd (IVZ) and GE Capital Real Estate, a subsidiary of GE (GE). PIMCO (PKO), which was widely expected to be on the list, announced that it had withdrawn from the program due to related uncertainties.
The nine firms chosen have been given up to three months to raise an initial $500 million ...
