Contrary to what contrarians believe, writes Mark Hulbert, low VIX levels are not necessarily bearish. Thinking about VIX as what it is - a measure of expected volatility - rather than as a "fear gauge" might help do away with this misperception.

Investing over extended periods of time allows you to capture various price levels reflected by various economic situations

buying stocks with a lower tolerance for high multiples is a conservative approach

avoiding companies that rely on government spending or high levels of unneeded consumer spending are some examples. ]]> Sun, 02 Dec 2012 01:42:00 -0500

GE acquired a 33% stake in Bank of Ayudhya in 2007 for $626M, but sold 7.6% in September for for $466M, indicating the conglomerate will make a healthy return on the investment. http://seekingalpha.com/currents/post/689711?source=feed#comment-12134111 12134111 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 20:05:36 -0500 Retirement Strategy: You Want The Truth?

Though it's the equivalent of more than a dozen Coke soft drinks (caffeine database), short-term trading opportunists note it's only 60 milligrams more than one Starbucks Venti coffee. In a statement, Monster Beverage maintains it has safely sold over 8B energy drinks worldwide. http://seekingalpha.com/currents/post/600391?source=feed#comment-10875511 10875511 Thu, 25 Oct 2012 01:47:05 -0400 Forget General Electric: Limited Upside With A 15% Downside http://seekingalpha.com/article/947581/comments?source=feed#comment-10874761 10874761

The future is unknown, but a buyer of the 10-year Treasury at 1.5% requires an unceasing stream of bad news to make money, while being open to getting fried on just the slightest bit of economic sunlight. SPY pulls far ahead of TLT in YTD returns. http://seekingalpha.com/currents/post/464641?source=feed#comment-8085661 8085661 Sat, 04 Aug 2012 01:16:47 -0400 The aftermath of the USPS defaulting on a $5.5B payment to the U.S. Treasury is relatively muted as jittery politicians prefer to stay out of any action that could cut jobs in their district. Things could get rather interesting in October though, when the USPS could actually run out of money to fund ongoing operations and force companies to improvise. On watch: FedEx (FDX -1.0%), UPS (UPS -0.5%). http://seekingalpha.com/currents/post/459711?source=feed#comment-8025581 8025581
This needs to be revised and taken over by FedEx and UPS. This is way too much debt for it to be a big conversation now. Politicians don't care and neither does Wall Street. It's just another U.S. bill that goes unpaid as the so-called fiscal cliff (which is also a bunch of b.s.) gets near.]]> Thu, 02 Aug 2012 11:40:34 -0400
