The earnings briefs are interesting. It would save us all a scratch pad if you ended each such listing with a summary (day and quarter to date) of beat / match / miss. Thanks, though, for this most interesting listing. ReplyIf This Comes True, You'll Be Glad You Own Gold & Silver [view article]
Autaber, as I said in another post we are in the winter cycle according to Kondratieff where the credit boom = debt boom has been fenomenal - now, this theory well documented which has with precision forecasted financials boom and bust is now predicting deflation - frankly, I cannot see how we will get deflation since the other tsunami is much bigger i.e. peak oil - with oil becoming more and more expensive, this will have an inflationary impact on food, energy, metals, etc. I think the deflation will be on housing, stocks, bonds - so, according the the classical Kondratieff theory, gold will outperform during the housing/stock/bond deflation and should do even better since we will have inflation on food/energy/raw materials - the target price ?? Ok, if we calculate how much monetary mass has been increased during the Autumn period (1980-2000) gold price should rise to 32.000 dollars just to match this increase - I know this sounds crazy but these are the facts - will it ? I would be happy for just 6000-10.000 dollars - best luck to you - protect yourself, your family because what is to come will not be pretty at all ! ReplyMicrosoft's Cashback Program is Working: 15% Uptick in June Searches [view article]
The problem with Microsoft's goofy cashback plan is that it isn't economically viable. The more share they gain, the more cash they lose. If they had decent share to start with, it would have been a non-starter out of the gate, but with their patheticly small audience backed by a cash-cow monopoly, then can pay for a few points on paper for a few months. The second they stop, people will revert back away from Live. If I opened a new gas station in the sticks and sold gas for $1 per gallon less than everyone else, people would come from far and wide to take my money, but when I inevitably raised the price back to market rates, those people would be back at their local Shell before you could say "Vista sucks"!Reply
Microsoft's Cashback Program is Working: 15% Uptick in June Searches [view article]
Go Microsoft! Cashback is the right way to go for everyone - vendors only pay when a sale is made, as opposed to when an ad is clicked; and the rebate goes to the customer, instead of to the deep pockets of a giant corporation.

Marc's article makes for provocative reading but there is no doubting the logic of his arguments. We can place in our minds the arguments for and against, when observing price behaviour of oil, commodities and inflation. ReplyIf This Comes True, You'll Be Glad You Own Gold & Silver [view article]

msft isn't too big, it is mismanaged and has been so for years. no leadership and no imagination. nothing new to put in the pot, just copying other companies inventions.gates has been virtually off the case for years and that leaves ballmer to carry the flag. nuff said. Reply

One would get the impression this company is faltering in a booming economy.It's a company that is too big to make meaningful growth as the growth will be at the margins.
Virtually no one has made any real money investing in MSFT in almost a decade. It is a good example for budding security analysts of when a great company reaches maturity. Reply

If Microsoft wants to grow and expand I think they should look at IBM not Google/Yahoo. 10 years ago companies did many things for e-mail management, now most of them are using Exchange. Companies are making money modifying Unix servers to use Windows authentication services. Providing IT infrastructure is a lucrative business and Microsoft is starting to be very successful in this space. I disagree with people who say the only future in computing is finding the next new hot app on the web, once you set a standard in IT, huge revenue streams result from supporting and enhancing that product going forward. Microsoft already has set important standards in many areas and is doing well with Visual Studio and MS Sql. If I were Ballmer, I would stick to my knitting and let Google go back to a 15 p to e on their own power. ReplyWall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News [view article]
