Shares of data storage provider STEC Inc. (NASDAQ: STEC - News) are plunging 38% after the company reported second-quarter profit and revenue results that missed its own previous estimates and Wall Street estimates while issuing third-quarter guidance that also falls short of analysts' expectations. STEC forecast a third-quarter profit of 8-10 cents a share on revenue of $70-$72 million, well below the 31 cents on revenue of $96 million analysts were forecasting.

The news isn't sitting well with investors as the Data Storage Stocks Index is plunging 4.2%. Stifel Nicolaus said STEC's guidance is not a meaningful indicator of what rival OCZ Technology Group (NASDAQ: OCZ - News) may have to say when it reports. That stock is down 3% today.

Needham & Co. said the two primary culprits behind STEC's weak results and guidance were lost market share and lower SAS SSD volume. The Benchmark Co. downgraded STEC to "hold" from "buy" and said it is moving to the sidelines on the stock. JPMorgan pared its rating on the stock to "underweight" from "neutral" and slashed its price target to $13 from $23. ThinkEquity downgraded STEC to "hold" from "buy." The research firm says it still believes in the SSD secular trend, but that it may be the second quarter of 2012 before this proves to be a catalyst for STEC.

STEC on Bounce Watch today---down 35% overnight.

Sterne Agee is out with its report today on STEC (NASDAQ: STEC), initiating STEC at Neutral.

In a note to clients, Sterne Agee writes, "We believe STEC could be an attractive stock once consensus GMs are reset, given the growth in the overall market. There are also bull views that M&A could offer an exit for STEC, which is a potential outcome. However, the options are becoming limited with SanDisk buying Pliant, Samsung now working at EMC, Western Digital acquiring Hitachi's disk business and Micron making progress in the enterprise space. STEC currently trades at 11x CY12 Adj PE."

January 8, 2010, 11:55 AM ET How My Top Stocks for 2010 Are Doing So Far

By James Altucher
We’re only a little way into 2010 but I already have an update on stocks I wrote about in this November article.

STEC (STEC) is roughly 50% higher. Some readers complained when the article was published that perhaps STEC stock would need to “fill the gap” down to $10.50 before it could begin to move up. The stock was at $12.30 at the time and it ended up falling as low as $11.50 before starting to move up.

While I respect the discipline that technical analysis traders exhibit, it often doesn’t work when staring in the face of real fundamentals. STEC is the leader in its space, is going to have $2 a share in earnings (giving it 5 P/E if it were to fall into the $10s) and the fears of the glut at its largest customer, EMC, have been overblown.

The stock has since gone from a low of $11.50 to more than $19 and Deutsche Bank just put out a report with a “strong buy” and a $36 price target. Its own channel checks on EMC suggest that the glut of inventory isn’t as big as expected and that STEC will surprise over the next quarter. So despite having significant gains I’m holding onto my shares and waiting until at least the mid $20s before taking a look at the lay of the land and deciding what to do.

Although this is a “top pick for 2010,” I always check my assumptions along the way and make decisions accordingly. I’ll watch what’s happening and do a gut check. But I’m a believer here.

WellCare Health Plans (WCG) has gone from a quick $33 to about $37 since the article was written. It had gone as high as $39 and looked like it was going to push through $40 when Oppenheimer downgraded it based on valuation and put a price target of $36 on it. I’m a believer in this stock for the duration of 2010 based on the uncertainty going away surrounding health care. I do think, however, that some profits should be taken here while the dust subsides and the market complete its little pullback after such a strong run. I think long-term this is a $50 stock but I always like to be cautious.

Assured Guaranty (AGO) is basically flat from when the article was written and remains my favorite pick for the year. I’ve read various analyst reports over the past few weeks from hedge funds that have done a forensic analysis of the various securities AGO has on its books and are comfortable with $5 to $6 in earnings over 2010, putting AGO at a P/E ratio of 4 to 5 times. I’m a holder until at least the mid-$30s before I look around.

Incidentally, in terms of another update: On Dec. 22 I wrote about stocks that could soar the last week of the year. The premise was that stocks near 52-week highs with large short interest would go up because short-sellers would have to cover and take their loss for tax reasons. A tax-inspired short squeeze.

This ended up happening. The market was flat from Dec. 22 to Jan. 1 but the stocks of lululemon (LULU), Scholastic (SCHL), and Blue Nile (NILE) were all up, and as a group were up about 3.2%. They’ve continued to go up in the past few days. I recommend taking all profits if you haven’t already.
