DineEquity Gains on Shrinking Applebee's

Mon, 11 Oct 2010 12:32:37 EDT

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- DineEquity shares jumped on Monday after the IHOP operator announced it would sell 56 of its Applebee's restaurants.

DineEquity shares gained 3.2% to trade at $48.22 at midday. Volume was only slightly higher than average but investors clearly liked the idea of a smaller portfolio of restaurants and the after-tax benefits expected from the deals.

DineEquity will sell 56 company-owned Applebee's restaurants as part of the restaurant operator's shift toward a more franchised model of operations. As of June 30, more than 88% of DineEquity's Applebee's and IHOP restaurants were franchised, the company said. After the completion of pending sales of 119 company-operated Applebee's restaurants mentioned in the company's announcement, 92% of its portfolio of restaurants will be franchised. ...

How to Invest as the FOMC Tightens

Finance Professor Scott Rothbort will be hanging answering questions at Stockpickr Answers on Wednesday, March 17.

MILLBURN, N.J. (Stockpickr) -- The Federal Reserve Board surprised the financial markets last month when it announced that it would increase the discount rate. As I discussed yesterday, the immediate market reaction was negative.

It was not surprising that so many people thought it was the beginning of Armageddon. After all, the uninformed observer does not know the difference between the discount rate and the fed funds target, the latter of which is far more meaningful when it comes to interest-rate-related behavior. ...

Technical Setups: D.R. Horton, InterMune

Wed, 17 Feb 2010 07:00:00 EST

BALTIMORE (Stockpickr) -- A string of better-than-expected earnings numbers -- including a couple of this week's Rocket Stock plays -- managed to push stocks higher yesterday, a much-needed boost that's sure to give more than a few distraught investors hope that things can still turn around in 2010. But we're not waiting for an upswing in stocks to make a move; we've got the technicals on our side.

Technical analysis is a way for investors to quantify qualitative factors such as investor psychology based on a stock's chart patterns and trends. Once the domain of cloistered trading teams on Wall Street, technicals can help top traders make consistently profitable trades and can aid fundamental investors in better planning their stock execution.

But all too often, investors don't know where to start. So every week, Stockpickr takes a look at stocks that could be staging a technical move soon and compiles a portfolio of promising Technical Setups. ...
