Conglomerates: Cash Cows Or Corporate Chaos?
Conglomerates are companies that either partially or fully own a number of other companies. Not long ago, sprawling conglomerates were a prominent feature of the corporate landscape. Vast empires, such as General Electric (NYSE:GE) and Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A), were built up over many years with interests ranging from jet engine technology to jewelry. Corporate hodgepodges like these pride themselves on their ability to avoid bumpy markets. In some cases, they have produced impressive long-term shareholder returns - but this doesnt mean that corporate conglomerates are always a good thing for investors. If youre interested in investing in these behemoths, there are a few things you should know. Here we explain what conglomerates are and give you an overview of the pros and cons of investing in them.

The Case for Conglomerates
The case for conglomerates can be summed up in one word: diversification. According to financial theory, because the business cycle affects industries in different ways, diversification results in a reduction of investment risk. A downturn suffered by one subsidiary, for instance, can be counterbalanced by stability, or even expansion, in another venture. In other words, if Berkshire Hathaways brick-making division has a bad year, the loss might be offset by a good year in its insurance business.
At the same time, a successful conglomerate can show consistent earnings growth by acquiring companies whose shares are more lowly rated than its own. In fact, GE and Berkshire Hathaway have both promised - and delivered - double-digit earnings growth by applying this investment growth strategy.
The Case Against Conglomerates
However, the prominent success of conglomerates such as GE and Berkshire Hathaway is hardly proof that conglomeration is always a good idea. There are plenty of reasons to think twice about investing in these stocks , particularly in 2009, when both GE and Berkshire suffered as a result of the economic downturn, proving that size does not make a company infallible.

Investment guru Peter Lynch uses the phrase diworsification to describe companies that diversify into areas beyond their core competencies. A conglomerate can often be an inefficient, jumbled affair. No matter how good the management team, its energies and resources will be split over numerous businesses, which may or may not be synergistic.

For investors, conglomerates can be awfully hard to understand, and it can be a challenge to pigeonhole these companies into one category or investment theme. This means that even managers often have a hard time explaining their investment philosophy to shareholders. Furthermore, a conglomerates accounting can leave a lot to be desired and can obscure the performance of the conglomerates separate divisions. Investors inability to understand a conglomerates philosophy, direction, goals and performance can eventually lead to share underperformance.

While the counter-cyclical argument holds, there is also the risk that management will keep hold of businesses with poor performance, hoping to ride the cycle. Ultimately, lower-valued businesses prevent the value of higher-valued businesses from being fully realized in the share price . (For further reading, see The Ups And Downs Of Investing In Cyclical Stocks.)
Whats more, conglomerates do not always offer investors an advantage in terms of diversification. If investors want to diversity risk, they can do so by themselves, by investing in a few focused companies rather than putting all of their money into a single conglomerate. Investors can do this far more cheaply and efficiently than even the most acquisitive conglomerate can.

The Conglomerate Discount
The case against conglomerates is a strong one. Consequently, the market usually applies a haircut to the piecewise, or sum-of-parts, value - that is, it frequently values conglomerates at a discount to more focused companies. This is known as the conglomerate discount. According to a 2001 article in CFO Magazine, academic studies have suggested in the past that this discount could be as much as 10-12%, but more recent academic inquiries have concluded that the discount is closer to 5%. Of course, there are some conglomerates that command a premium but, in general, the market ascribes a discount.

The conglomerate discount gives investors a good idea of how the market values the conglomerate as compared to the sum value of its various parts. A deep discount signals that shareholders would benefit if the company were dismantled and its divisions left to run as separate stocks.

Lets take a shot at calculating the conglomerate discount using a simple example. Well use a fictional conglomerate called DiversiCo, which consists of two unrelated businesses: a beverage division and a biotechnology division.

DiversiCo has a stock market valuation of $2 billion and total debt of $0.75 billion. Its beverage division has balance sheet assets of $1 billion, while its biotechnology division has $0.75 billion worth of assets. Focused companies in the beverage industry have median market-to-book values of 2.5, while pure play biotech firms have market-to-book values of 2. DiversiCos divisions are fairly typical companies in their industries. From this information, we can calculate the conglomerate discount:
Example - Calculating the Conglomerate Discount

Total Market Value DiversiCo:
= Equity Debt
= $2 billion $0.75 billion
= $2.75 billion

Estimated Value Sum of the Parts:
= Value of Biotech Division Value of Beverage Division
= ($0.75 billion X 2) ($1 billion X 2.5)
= $1.5 billion $2.5 billion
= $4.0 billion

So, the conglomerate discount amounts to:
= ($4.0 billion - $2.75 billion)/$4.0 billion
= 31.25%


Copyright ??2009 Investopedia.com

DiversiCos conglomerate discount of 31.25% seems unusually deep. Its share price does not reflect the true value of its separate divisions. It becomes clear that this multibusiness company could be worth significantly more if it were broken up into individual businesses. Consequently, investors may push for divesting or spinning off its beverage and biotech divisions to create more value. If that were to happen, Diversico might be worth closer examination as a buying opportunity.

What to Look For
The big question is whether investing in conglomerates makes sense. The conglomerate discount suggests it does not. But there may be a silver lining. If you invest in conglomerates that break up into individual pieces through divestitures and spinoffs, you could capture an increase in value as the conglomerate discount disappears. As a general rule, you stand to get greater returns when conglomerates break up than when they are built.

That said, some conglomerates do command a valuation premium - or at least a slim conglomerate discount. These are extremely well-run companies. They are managed aggressively, with clear targets set for divisions. Underperforming companies are quickly sold, or divested. More importantly, successful conglomerates have financial rather than strategic or operating objectives, adopting strict approaches to portfolio management .

If you choose to invest in conglomerates, look for ones with financial discipline, rigorous analysis and valuation, a refusal to overpay for acquisitions and a willingness to sell off existing businesses. As with any investment decision , think before you buy and dont assume that big companies always come with big returns.

5 Common Mistakes Young Investors Make
When learning any skill, it is best to start young. Investing is no different. Missteps are common when learning something new, but when dealing with money, they can have serious consequences. Investors who start young generally have the flexibility and time frame to take on risk and recover from their money-losing errors, but sidestepping the following common mistakes can help improve the odds of success. (In addition to this article, read Eight Financial Tips For Young Adults.)



1. Procrastinating
Procrastination is never good, but it can be especially detrimental while investing because the markets move so quickly. Good investment ideas are not always easy to find. If, after doing research, a good investment idea arises, it is important to act on it before the rest of the market takes note and beats you to it. Young investors can be prone to not acting on a good idea out of fear or inexperience. Missing out on a good idea can lead a young investor to two very bad scenarios:

1. The investor will revise his opinion upward and still purchase an asset when it is not warranted. Perhaps the investor rightly develops an opinion that an asset priced at $25 should be worth $50. If it moves up to $50 before he or she buys it, the investor may artificially revise the price target to $60 in order to rationalize the purchase.

2. The young investor will look for a replacement. In the previous example, the investor who failed to buy the asset that rose from $25 to $50 may quickly try to identify the next asset that will double. As a result, the investor might purchase another asset quickly, without doing the proper work and research, in order to try to make up for the previous missed opportunity. (Young investors often find themselves with too many options and not enough money. Read more in Competing Priorities: Too Many Choices, Too Few Dollars.)

2. Speculating Instead of Investing
A young investor is at an advantage in his or her investing life. Holding the level of wealth constant, an investors age affects how much risk an he or she can take on. So, a young investor can seek out bigger returns by taking bigger risks. This is because if a young investor loses money, he or she has time to recover the losses through income generation. This may seem like an argument for a young investor to speculate, but it is not.

Any young or novice investor will have an inclination to speculate if they do not fully understand the investment process. Speculation is often the equivalent of gambling, as the speculator does not necessarily have a reason for a purchase except that there is a chance that it may go up in value. This can be dangerous, as there are many experienced professionals waiting to take advantage of their less-experienced counterparts.

Instead of speculating and gambling, a young investor should look to invest in companies that have higher risk but greater upside potential over the long term. So, while a diversified portfolio of small-cap growth stocks would not be appropriate for an investor nearing retirement, a young investor is better equipped to take on that risk and can take advantage accordingly.
A final risk of speculation is that a large loss can scar a young investor and affect his or her future investment choices. This can lead to a tendency to shun investing altogether or to move to lower or risk-free assets at an age when it may not be appropriate. (For more insight, seePersonalizing Risk Tolerance.)

3. Using Too Much Leverage
Leverage has its benefits and its pitfalls. If there is ever a time when investors have the ability to add leverage to their portfolios, it is when they are young. As mentioned earlier, young investors have a greater ability to recover from losses through future income generation. However, similar to speculation, leverage can shatter even a good portfolio.

If a young investor is able to stomach a 20-25% drop in his or her portfolio without getting discouraged, the 40-50% drop that would result at two times leverage may be too much to handle. The consequences of such a drop are similar to those resulting from a loss due to speculation: the young investor may become discouraged and overly risk averse for the rest of his investing life. (Want to learn more about leverage? See Leverages Double-Edged Sword Need Not Cut Deep for more.)

4. Not Asking Enough Questions
If a stock drops a lot, a young investor might expect it to bounce right back, but more often than not, it is down for good reason. One of the most important factors in forming investment decisions is asking why. If an asset is trading at half of an investors perceived value, there is a reason and it is the investors responsibility to find it. Young investors who have not experienced the pitfalls of investing can be particularly susceptible to making decisions without locating all the pertinent information.

5. Not Investing
As mentioned earlier, an investor has the best ability to seek a higher return and take on higher risk when they have a long-term time horizon. Investors have their longest time horizons, and therefore a high tolerance for risk, when they are young. Young people also tend to be less experienced with having money. As a result, they are often tempted to focus on how money can benefit them in the present, without focusing on any long-term goals (such as retirement). Spending money now instead of saving and investing can create bad habits and contribute to a lack of savings and retirement funds. (For more on this, read Young Investors: What Are You Waiting For?)
The Bottom Line
Young investors should take advantage of their age and their increased ability to take on risk. Applying investing fundamentals early can help lead to a bigger portfolio later in life. There are also many risks that a young/less-experienced investor will face when making decisions. Hopefully, avoiding some of the common mistakes above will help young people learn investing early and embark on a fruitful investing career.

FINRA members publishing quotations in an inter-dealer quotation system must publish the price and full size of a customer order if that order improves or is equal to the member’s price. Exceptions exist for orders under minimum tier size, block orders and customer requests.

[BoomPickens]

If a stock has already advanced significantly, it may be prudent to wait for a pullback. Or, if the stock is trending lower, it might pay to wait for buying interest and a trend reversal.
