Google’s Killer App for Investors, Consultants and Journalists [view article]
Michael,Thanks for the link. Umair's post is profound. He's saying ditch the orthodox strategy of hiding information to make markets inefficient because that is taking the informational value out of pricing. Seeking Alpha and Google are giving the markets the tools to make information transparent regardless of efforts to hide it.
Correct? Reply

This is truly groundbreaking. All of these subscription companies like Thompson are under assault by the low cost edge economy. See Umair Haque's fantastic post on the topic. discussionleader.hbsp..../On Apr 07 12:09 PM Yazz wrote:

The Ins and Outs of Terror-Free Investing [view article]
Mr. ShawTerror-free investing as a national policy might or might not work. The unilateral decisions of the US haven't worked out very well e are the best electronics designed and manufactured? Not in our clately, but lets put that aside.
Who decides what is a terror state? Could China be on that list because of its policies in Tibet? What about Russia and the disappearance of its citizens? What about the US in Iraq and Afghanistan; aren't we terrorizing part of their populations? Is the decision made by someone stuck at a desk in the corner who's name and character are unknown? Maybe we could make it with decisions of congress?
If everything goes OK, who moves in when we move out? The French, Russia, China? How about Venezuela? Maybe North Korea?
Wouldn't it be a welcome change to see North Koreans helping out Pakistani Citizens with all their nuclear needs?
The economic and political power of the US is dwindling as other countries of the world move toward the center stage. Where are the fastest grown economies? Which countries are graduating the most engineers, scientists, and business majors? Where are the best and newest examples of architecture? Not in our country.
For terror free investing to work on a global scale would require the combined efforts of several independent nations. The US will need to find a new attitude of pragmatism and co-operation as its influence diminishes over the coming decades.
However, everything else aside, the idea has merit. On an individual basis, or perhaps dedicated "terror free" fund, we could give it a try.

Re/CC-Wattles sees an opportunity to make some money after he replaces the board with his own people, gets Schoonover out of the executive suite, and makes the chain a RadioShack clone. I don't think he's bullish on the company, just bullish on the upside that will result after he's done chopping heads. ReplyTime Layoffs: Another Death Knell For Print Media? [view article]
Hard copy will never die and print is a long way from extiniction. To this day the computer revolution maxum "paperless office" has never materialized. In fact, computers have been responsible for generating more paper than ever before. In 1970 no one except writers and business people bought paper by the ream to today everyone does! No, sir, in 1970 they bought little plastic wrap stacks of 50 sheets for their typewriter work. Today no household is complete without a 3 in 1 Fax, Printer, Copier and burning back up of communications and data to CD-R and DVD-R is first nature. The media business, however, is changing as evident by the drop in commercial CDs and with on demand downloads, of which Amazon is a leader and I buy some that way, storing them on DVD-R in case my hard drive fries, the DVD will face a sales lag in the near future. Ipods have replaced the CD driven walkman and flash media has dropped in price from $60 a GB to $16 a GB in just two years. Everyone is going to have to adjust to a new way of doing things. Distant learning is on the rise, homeschooling is up over 8% and expected to double by 2020. Expect to see cable TV go extinct as internet TV takes over and I'm a fan. I watch NBC, CBS and ABC re-runs on demand on my computer when I want to and that's better and cheaper than TVIO. ReplyUnder The Radar News - Friday [view article]
"IBM/AMD tie-up "nothing but speculation."&quo...Even IBM couldn't be THAT dumb, to buy AMD.
"Interesting that Walt Mossberg, a huge apple fan, gave it a very mediocre review"
Mossberg's a "lawful neutral" (to use D&D jargon); not a huge Apple fan. The MacBook Air is for road warriors ONLY. I'm not in that group, either.
iPhone shortfall: I think they'll make the 10M by the end of 2008 without breaking a sweat. But, they need to hit additional markets. Note Nokia did well by tapping Asia, EU, and Latin America; the iPhone is still mostly US. Reply
