On a day like Friday it's easy to get carried away with the market's big move. Should you trade the momentum or focus on fundamentals? I think the market is getting a little carried away, replies Karen Finerman. I have no idea where the market is going short term and I try not to focus on it. Instead I ask myself what stocks are attractively priced with a balance sheet that can withstand some pain if we are in a recession. That’s what I focus on.

symbol name last price % change open
  • +
  • NYX
    Nyse Euronext
  • $25.78
  • -0.39%
  • $25.91

You can take a look at the NYSE (NYX). I think it’s attractively priced on an EPS basis and they have good volume.

  • PZN
    Pzena Inv Mgmt Cl
  • $6.96
  • -3.06%
  • $7.19

Another bet I like is Pzena Investment Management (PZN). It’s an asset management firm that’s run by Rich Pzena who I consider a very smart guy.

  • FNM
    Fannie Mae
  • $0.99
  • -1.00%
  • $1.00

And if you want, consider Fannie Mae (FNM)but be in it in call options so you know exactly where your downside is.

People owning FNM also tend to own: ABPIADPTDCREBAYEDCIFMDHTE

  • COF
    Capital One Finan
  • $38.76
  • +1.87%
  • $38.11

On the other side, I think you can short Capital One (COF). I expect more consumer pain to come in things like auto loans and credit cards.

People owning COF also tend to own: AFGAIZAMPAMTDAWBCBACCKFR

TheStreet.com Rating: D+ What is this?

  • +
  • WMT
    Wal Mart Stores
  • $54.96
  • +0.20%
  • $54.86

Also I recommend taking profits in Wal-Mart (WMT) if you own it.

People owning WMT also tend to own: AIGALLBACCCATCBSCOP
