Barron’s Keynotes (April 14, 2007)

Posted: April 14, 2007 at 6:01 am

This weekend’s edition of Barron’s hit on some key names.

The cover story is on Adobe (ADBE-NASDAQ) with the prediction that the shares are set to go higher.  The video and photo editing and the new products launching are giving this one what they feel is a double-digit top-line and bottom-line growth for years into the future.  I have to admit, that purchase of Macromedia in the past for its Flashlets and video compression has paid off incredibly well for it and established a franchise that will go on until the next "next thing" like web video compression.

Barron’s also noted that Office Depot (ODP) is cheaper than rival Staples (SPLS).

K-Swiss (KSWS) is also a name that was discussed as a turnaround play.  It was noted that the stock is down 25% from highs and could even be acquired down the road.
