    Want Monthly Dividends? 150 Stocks that Pay [view article]
    So how do I find a dividend paying fund that is NOT loosing value faster than the dividend is paying? Take for example ERH which is down close to 50% in the past year. Even though it pays a nice dividend, it has to have a 100% increase in share value just to break even. Then- the dividend is nice. Otherwise, I might as well stay in a 2.5% money market. Reply

    I think, from your tone, that a "place" to drill would never meet your acceptance.

    And you proclaim that the saltwater flat is the only site !

    The time to begin drilling was many yesterdays........ and while we drill we continue
    the quest for the alternatives.

    No need to ask how you feel about reactor production is there ?

    Smarten up and don't get too wrapped up with Hollywood portrayals.

    PDS: Tax-Free Ride Ends for Canadian Trusts [view article]
    I am wrestling with the PDS Canadian Trust issue, but at a different time and about a different part of the issue. With PDS buying Grey Wolf for cash and stock, I want to know what are the US tax ramifications. Will I have to use the Tax Form K as with Limited Partnerships or is it treated like normal US stock dividends and sales? Can you shed any light on this issue?

    Scott - yes, CLNE has possibilities, has gone up about 50 % recently. Pickens owns about 65% of it and I like his ideas. I expect that it will be some time before CLNE is profitable but I wish it well.

    Helpful article and important insights from Garman. Thanks, and let's hope we have one more chance to buy PDS on a pullback soon. Reply

    CCerenz - Our auto companies are uncompetitive because they are run by fat, lazy bureaucrats with no market savvy and neither the ability nor the willingness to innovate given their knowledge that no matter what happens, they will be bailed out by Uncle Sam as is happening now. Yes, they have high labor and legacy costs. This too is a reflection of poor management. Everyone loves to pile on to the unions and they certainly bear their share of the blame but at the end of the day there is SOMEONE running the company who must set strategy and execute against it. When that strategy fails, the CEO should either adjust or accept failure. Instead, American auto company CEOs go crying hat in hand to Congress and whip up a spectacular frenzy among the deluded that it's all the fault of someone else. Nonsense. We are a nation of whiners indeed - and there are no greater whiners than those who've led once-great businesses into the sewer. Reply

    It is the throwing of trillions of dollars into foreign stocks traded on foreign markets that has resulted in these handsome gains...not the success of the local economies. When we start repatriating those dollars the foreign stocks traded on the foreign markets will collapse. The locals are not dumb enough to get involved in the presence of opaque accounting, no government oversight of the markets, etc, etc. Reply

    Grey Wolf Shareholders Deserve Better Buyout Offer [view article]
    You mention, "is six percent below the offered price." You should factor in the fact that PDS' dividend ex-date is this week. When accounted for, GW is not that much under the offer. Reply

    It's entirely possible, that we will see some more downside, before the regional banks start up. However, their share prices ought to reflect their future potential. To me, I see capitulation in the share prices of these banks... Everyone who was going to sell has had ample opportunity to get out. Now, I see buying by Directors and other people who have a vested interest in the success of these banks, as well as our country, in general. These are not just speculators, like myself. Reply

    David, I'm sorry, that was a bad joke... I was referring to Marshall & Isley (MI). I have my money market and a large CD, there. I like the fact that they sold their data-processing unit last year, in order to raise capital. They didn't wait for a crisis to develop, as some others have. Also, they raised their dividend to $0.32 qtrly and insiders have been making large puchases, as recently as last week. Reply

    I don't think it is a coincidence that the '03 was the bottom for MSCI. As Iraq war caused US to print trillions of dollars and throw them all over the world, the rise in commodity prices certainly did more than help the rise of emerging markets. Therefore, then, it is more than likely that the deflationary pressure emanating from the debt contraction will also propagate through the corners of the global economy, this time triggering the fall of emerging market.

    Today the VIX has made the start of what could be a big move upward. It has apparently bounced off its support level of about 18.50. If it continues to go up from here to 30 or more, we could see a large near term drop in the SPY and DJIA. The last move upward translated into an approximate 17 point drop in the SPY and about an 1800 point drop in the DJIA. That certainly sounds bleak to me. Reply
