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

It's never too early to go Christmas shopping. Picking a broad basket of stocks that seem favorable when expecting a short term bull rally.

Note on this pick:

I bought in around $6.50. It was very obvious to me based on BMR's low amount of leverage, strong cash flows, and property portfolio that it was worth more than that.

As I write this, it sells at $16. I believe it is still slightly undervalued even at this price. Based on cash flows, equity interest in assets, and other factors, I'd value this company somewhere between $20 - $28, just based on a quick glance. I do, however, have some concerns about the locations of their properties (many being in bubble markets), so I'd probably stay on the conservative end of that.

I would not buy in at the current price. It's too expensive, in my view, when compared to other REITs. All the same, I plan on continuing my pick here on CAPS, especially since it pays out a sizable dividend. My strategy for CAPS on the REITs is buy-and-hold for life. If I see BMR tip over $25, I might consider ending my pick, but otherwise, I plan on keeping this pick forever.

BioMed Realty Trust is a relatively small REIT, specializing in the life science industry. An update - BMR now "owns or has interests in 69 properties, which include 112 buildings with approximately 10.4 million rentable square feet of laboratory and office space, including approximately 1.9 million square feet of development in progress...." (quote courtesy of the company home page).
I agree with the other bull pitchers that BMR is undervalued - great margins (profit and operating - 22% and 36% respectively), strong cash flow, and a low forward PE at 4.62.
The dividend is nice and fat too.
My timing was bad for when I bought my BMR shares, but even though the share price has gone down significantly, they have't yet decreased or suspended the dividend - they actually raised it a few times.
