    Accenture Reaps Benefits of Slow Economy - Barron's [view article]
    Accenture's biggest challenge is going to be to keep the partnership units off the free market and causing massive dilution in the share price. Since they have the free cash flow and tons of cash on the balance sheet, they will be able to pull that off. While Financial Services in North America is struggling, everything else is doing extremely well. Reply

    Accenture: Prospering Even in a Tough Environment [view article]
    Concur, great company and outstanding performance in a tough market. It's been a "Magic Formula" stock for some time now. Clearly a top class IT consultant, and still buyable at today's prices with current momentum.

    Good response, PhillyD. You might also note that just recently an independent audit (McDaniels) showed good probability of reserves being TRIPLE what BQI originally (and conservatively) reported. Reply

    Folks - Check out this website www.thesmartpro.org which is pretty much the same without the unwanted details. How many employees want to know the approval rating of the CEO before deciding to accept the offer?

    Smartpro is neat, it classifies the responses under categories that are important and relevant to employees. It’s free and not for profit!

    It does not have millions of dollars to promote like Glassdoor but is quietly aiming to provide newletters, jobs, reviews, ratings, industry benchmarks et al. All for free.

    check it out at www.thesmartpro.org

    Re: Opening banks to private equity:
    In business, once you have played all of your cards of maximizing efficiency and optimizing products and marketing, the final thing that one can do to increase returns is to increase risk. It certainly seems as if this is the point where the Fed is treading these days. The moves to date have been creative and, it would seem, effective; however, safeguards are being whittled down one at a time. they are there for reasons that have not gone away.

    It is fact that Citigroup had been offered over $50 billion for their real estate owned properties that devaluate day by day, so can someone please tell me why they would hold onto what is obviously a distressed asset like this? That offer, by the way, was made about a year ago.
    "Citi never sleeps" That's right, it isn't sleep it's a coma.

    The only surprise that Hector Ruiz has a low approval rating is that it is actually higher than 10%. Barely, but it made it. One of the worst CEO's out there. Reply

    Regarding PhillyD's comment about OGX. Is that the correct symbol? I've had a long term interest in PICO and water rights. Thank you. Reply

    Oilsands Quest. The amount of land has constantly been misquoted from Cramer on down. They do not have 500,000 acres leased but over 700,000. Then if you take Cramer's real estate play terms the stock should be (if they paid the same per $2.8 mil per acre as Ivanhoe recently paid) $24.00 per share and not $16.00. Then if you only value half of that (why only half?) the stock would be worth $12.00 not $8.00.

    But real estate aside they have found oil on each test drill. Their Axle Lake Discovery is in hand. The amount will be independently announce sometime in July/August.

    There is a very real possibility that they are sitting on way more than 10 billion barrells of oil equivlant. They will be exploring those 700,000 acres for more than any of our lifetimes. They are bringing in the equipment as we speak to begin and the town where this is happening has already voted "YES" to have them come in and do their thing.

    Speculative? Yep. But where else are we going to find a potential $100-200 value, in the most sought after commodity on earth, for a mere $6-7 per share?

    See what happened when OGX went public last week? 6 billion in market cap in one day and all they have is water rights. BQI has already found oil and is currently market capped at 1.4 billion. I like my chances.

    I went to glass door, and I started to comment on my company, but the information they wanted would get me fired. To me it is obvious they are looking for 2 types of reviews, positive and disgruntled former employees, if you don't like what you CEO is doing and you want to keep working you don't post to glass door.
