Google Looks Like A Pre-Surge Apple With Less Risk [View article]
I'd like to make one clarification: I believe Google is still a good buy at $800 (although many people obviously disagree), but I haven't run the numbers on Apple's current valuation so I'm not quite sure whether Apple or Google is the better buy.

I know I'm in the extreme minority about being bearish on Zynga, but I doubt Facebook would buy them until Zynga shares get really low. At $3, that's $2.35 billion and I don't think Facebook would bite until the $1.2 billion to $1.5 billion mark. I know Facebook has plenty of cash and could afford $2.35 billion, but they have never made an acquisition above $1 billion (Instagram) and it's starting to look like they drastically overpaid for that.

Systematic risk is macroeconomic risk, so fluctuations in the whole market. Systemic risk is when the market fails, like if the NYSE went out of business or every bank went under.

Well the theory says that over time, standard deviation increase by a factor of sqrt(t) so time actually increases risk which makes sense when you think about it.
