15:23 EDTJCP, HESSohn conference presentations likely to move stocks again
The Sohn Investment Conference is set to take place tomorrow in New York City. Among the notable presenters are David Einhorn, Bill Ackman, and Jeff Gundlach, each of whom presented a year ago. LOOKING BACK: A year ago, both Gundlach and Einhorn addressed Apple (AAPL) in their presentations, taking opposite sides of the trade. Gundlach said that he was short Apple, while Einhorn said he was long the stock. Gundlach reiterated his short position on Apple in a number of interviews during the year, including a prediction in January that Apple shares would reach $425 in the first quarter, a level the stock closed below on March 4. On April 29, Gundlach told CNBC he was no longer short Apple. Einhorn, meanwhile, filed a suit against the company in February in an effort to get it to distribute some of its cash hoard to investors. Earlier today, Einhorn said in an earnings conference call for Greenlight Capital that he has added to his Apple long position and praised the company's plan to return more capital to holders. Apple shares are down more than 19% over the last year, though shares have rallied more than 15% from their April lows. At last year's conference, Bill Ackman discussed his long position in J.C. Penney (JCP). Ackman, a member of Penney's board, said the company was going through with its in-store makeover strategy, led by then CEO Ron Johnson. J.C. Penney shares have slipped 50% over the last year, with Johnson leaving his CEO post on April 8. OTHER POSITIONS: Over the last year, both Einhorn and Gundlach have mentioned shorting Chipotle (CMG). In October, Einhorn recommended shorting Chipotle, saying Taco Bell (YUM) was a threat to the burrito chain. At a presentation last month, Gundlach said the idea of a gourmet burrito is an oxymoron. Shares of Chipotle are down more than 3% today ahead of tomorrow's conference, though neither investor has confirmed they hold short positions in its shares. In addition to his long position in J.C. Penney, Ackman has a high-profile short position in Herbalife (HLF), which he has called "a pyramid scheme." Ackman has been in a public spat with Carl Icahn over the company in which, according to Icahn's most recent SEC filings, he holds a better than 15% stake. Herbalife shares, which lost more than 39% following Ackman's initial presentation, are up slightly better than 1.5% since Ackman's initial comments. OTHER PRESENTERS: Investors will also be watching comments in any individual stocks from famed short-seller Jim Chanos, as well as comments from Kyle Bass, who has been outspokenly bearish on Japan. Also presenting is Paul Singer of Elliott Management, which is currently in a proxy fight with Hess (HES) in an effort to add five independent directors to the company's board. Keith Meister of Corvex Management, which along with Related Fund Management has been seeking change at CommonWealth REIT (CWH), is also set to take the stage.

07:58 EDTJCPJ.C. Penney $9 price target reiterated at Morgan Stanley
Morgan Stanley said J.C. Penny's $1.75B debt facility secured by real estate primary shifts value to debt holders from stockholders. The analyst values J.C. Penny's real estate at approximately $12 per share but said valuation would be much lower in a distressed scenario and that ongoing losses outflows will erode the $12 value. The firm reiterates its Underweight rating and $9 price target and believes the only catalyst for shares is a a sales and operational recovery.
