The "G's" - DG & GS - Get It
January 5, 2011 - RELATED TICKERS: Dollar General (NYSE: DG) and Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS), Family Dollar (NYSE: FDO), Dollar Tree (Nasdaq: DLTR).
Dollar General (NYSE: DG) and Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS) are stocks of companies that "Get It."
Both are very well managed.
DG knows what their customers want.
GS knows what their clients want.
GS, in the news today, invests $450 million in Facebook so they and their clients can profit from it.
Shares of private held companies such as Facebook can be traded on private stock exchanges such as SecondMarket and SharesPost. The shares are generally sold by former employees or early investors in these companies.
Only institutional investors or high net worth individuals (1 million or more) can buy the shares. For those that can sell them, the market is on fire. Currently Facebook's price is around $25.
GS is going to make money, their clients are going to make money. That's how GS operates.
GS knew the score back in the black financial days of recent years. Not only did they survive but they made money even then.
GS Gets It regardless of your emotions about the investment bank.
Want to make money? Invest in GS.
DG plans to open 625 new stores and hire more than 6,000 workers in 2011.
DG also plans to relocate or remodel 550 stores.
The 'Dollar' store concept continues to be a growth story. Take your pick,
DG, Family Dollar (NYSE: FDO), Dollar Tree (Nasdaq: DLTR).
