		<description><![CDATA[We have a long-term Neutral recommendation on OfficeMax Inc. (OMX) with a price target of $6.00. The company provides office supplies and paper, print and document services, technology products and solutions as well as office furniture to business firms, government organizations and other retail consumers. How the Company Balances As the recovery in the economy still remains sluggish, consumers and small businesses remain frugal about big-ticket spending like business machines and other durables. Therefore, we believe that the demand for office products is closely tied to the health of the economy. Consequently, OfficeMax is repositioning itself to keep afloat in a difficult consumer environment. The company is containing costs, closing underperforming stores and focusing on innovative products and services, which should all contribute to margin improvements. Further, the company also ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Jeannette Di Louie, Investment U Research Monday, December 5, 2011 I’ve said for a while now that Google (Nasdaq: GOOG) wants to take over the world. First, it debuted the search engine, which changed how we use the internet so significantly that English dictionaries everywhere now include “Google” [goo-guh'l] as an official entry (incidentally both as a noun and a verb). But the company didn’t stop there, adding Google News in 2002, Google Maps in 2004, Google Finance in 2006, Gmail in 2007, and its web browser, Google Chrome, in 2009. These days, it also offers music, video, image and finance services, not to mention Blogger, a popular site where users can create their own blogs for little or nothing, and Google Docs, which serves as a free, online ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bloomberg reports that Office Depot (ODP), the second-largest U.S. office-supply chain, could merge with OfficeMax Incorporated (OMX). Intense competition among the office supply retailers coupled with a high unemployment rate may result in industry consolidation. As per the data provided by Bloomberg, Office Depot’s market value has dropped 90% to $1.16 billion in the last five years, while OfficeMax has a value of $664 million after tumbling 78%. Office Depot supplies a range of office products and services across the globe. The company has operations throughout North America, Europe, Asia, and Central America. The company, which has been persistently losing market share to industry stalwarts, recently posted lower-than-expected first-quarter 2011 results. The underperformance can be traced back to sluggish sales across each business segment that suffered due to lower customer ]]></description>

Company Description OfficeMax, Inc., together with its subsidiaries, specializes in selling office products worldwide. The company was founded in 1913 and has a market cap of $1.45 billion. OfficeMax&#8217;s earnings and share price took a hit in the volatile market of 2008 and 2009 as its big, corporate customers scaled back on spending. But now with sales showing signs of stability and the company focusing on more effectively managing its cost structure, it has returned to profitability and pushed its share price back to a multi-year high.

		<description><![CDATA[We are maintaining a Neutral rating on Staples Inc. (SPLS), the world’s leading retailer of office products and services, with a target price of $24.00. Staples, which anticipates a moderate recovery in the economy in fiscal 2010, is making prudent investments in the highly fragmented North American retail market. The company intends to expand its business technology (EasyTech) and copy-and-print services that generate higher profit margins, while enhancing its core supply categories such as ink and toner. Moreover, the acquisition of Corporate Express has not only enhanced Staples’ global reach but also added large contract businesses to its portfolio, helping achieve significant purchasing synergies and reducing overhead expenses considerably. Staples has been actively managing its cash flows. During fiscal 2009, the company generated a free cash flow of $1.8 billion, ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Marc Lichtenfeld, Advisory Panelist Friday, February 12, 2010: Issue #1196 The latest government data showed that the U.S. economy expanded strongly during the fourth quarter of 2009, galloping along at an annualized 5.7% GDP growth rate. Now admittedly, numbers like this get revised more often than a five-year-old’s alibi when questioned about a broken vase. But given that GDP contracted by 5.4% in the fourth quarter of 2008, that’s quite a comeback. Those with their glasses half-empty are skeptical of the economy’s apparent resurgence. They point to the restocking of inventories as the major catalyst for the reported growth. Additionally, there are still millions who are unemployed, but can’t find work. Still, it’s hard to argue that there aren’t some signs of life in the economy. Last weekend, I ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Zacks Rank is one of the premier rating systems used to unveil market-beating stocks. By focusing on earnings estimate revisions and surprises, the system has consistently produced winning stocks. However, that very same philosophy can be turned around to find stocks that will underperform that market, making great opportunities to short. Same Logic, Different Application There are 4 factors that go into the Zacks Rank. I am taking the flip side to each piece of the puzzle. First there is &#8220;Agreement&#8221;. If each all or a vast majority of analysts continue to submit higher estimate revision, that is a very bullish sign. Obviously, if they continue to submit lower estimates it is viewed as bearish. Secondly, &#8220;Magnitude&#8221; addresses the size of these revisions. So, rather than look for large, ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[VistaPrint N.V.’s (VPRT) first quarter earnings for fiscal year 2010 came in at 29 cents per share. Results were a nickel ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 24 cents. The company had earned 18 cents in the year-ago quarter. Results were driven by higher-than-expected revenue increases. Also, key operating metrics remained strong. The company reported a 27% year-over-year increase in revenue to $145.1 million. Gross margin improved 290 basis points from the year-ago quarter to 63.6%. The results were impacted positively by lower shipping costs Incorporatedluding some one-time shipping-related rebates, labor efficiencies, favorable product mix shifts and improved materials pricing, which more than offset higher overhead costs and lower referral revenues. Operating income was $14.4 million, reflecting an increase of 47% from the prior-year period. Operating margin was up ]]></description>
