    • 5 Alternative Energy Stocks Worth Researching [view article]
      >>Currently, the stock is trading at a multiple too high compared to their earnings and at almost 20 times book value. <<

      20X book value does sound high, until you discover that their book value is based on land values from pre-1900 days, and were not viewed to be of significance for a determination. Accordingly, book value on this company has absolutely no significance. Russell, please correct me if you think otherwise.       Aug 26 03:23 PM
    • Apple Gets Top Marks in Customer Satisfaction [view article]
      I'm another satisfied customer, having bought 2 MACs (for my daughters) and IPod Touch. Awesome! Comparing a PC to a MAC is like comparing a Buick to a BMW. Aug 26 07:40 AM
    • Apple: Great Company with Lofty Valuation - Due for Pullback [view article]
      >> The exercise of options creates three negatives (1) More shares are added to the supply (2) the added shares cause earnings dilution. (3) the company incurs payroll taxes on the gain that the employee realizes.<<

      Payroll taxes? Get in the ball game. What about the huge tax deduction that the company gets with no cash outlay! The in-the-money element is a tax deduction to the company (and compensation to the employee).

      I think that you're grasping at straws to put an unnecessary spin on AAPL. By the way, if AAPL can dent RIMM (and I think that they can jackhammer them within 3 years), what will this do to their earnings?

    • Citi: Sirius XM Is &#8220;Massively Undervalued&#8221; [view article]
      If Apple would buy out SIRI, what a combination. Apple's leadership could turn this into a blockbuster. Having said that, I see no indication of Apple interest in SIRI.

      Is this just a pie-in-the wish to save your underwater investment?       Aug 15 07:51 AM
    • Early Morning Tidbits: Google, RIMM [view article]
      RIMM - this AM was a good opp to sell some more shares - thanks for the premarket puff. I think that we'll see $100-105 by the end of July. If Apple has a good launch of its new phone, this will really put the dampers on RIMM. Jun 30 11:46 AM
    • CIT Group: From 'Near Death' to 'Critical' [view article]
      The aggregate amount financed at any one time during the first ten (10) years of the Facility will not exceed $3 billion, with such amount to be reduced by $300 million per year for each of the following ten years (the "Maximum Facility Amount").

    • Rating Agencies Settle: What About Auditors? [view article]
      So what is your solution to avoid the company vs auditor payment-for-services conflict (something that you forgot to mention a solution)?

      If the company isn't to pay for the auditor, thereby avoiding the conflict, who are you suggesting will pay for it?

      Big hole in your blumb. Huge hole.       Jun 08 01:29 PM

    • Will Starbuck's New Menu Satifsfy Investors? [view article]
      I'm a frequent Starbucks fan, generally visiting the same store 5-6 days a week (between 7-7.15 AM). I don't drink the fancy drinks, but just the regular brew. I've noticed what used to be quite a long line has declined to a mere 3-4 people at the most, and occassionally there's no line. I'm not sure where the people have gone. It may be that the people are just tired of the "same old thing." Nothing really changes. May 04 07:51 PM
    • Obagi Medical Should Jump on Bullish Calls [view article]
      I think that OMPI is a unbelievable gem at a price under $10. We'll know much more in a week. No long-term debt, profitable and decent cash in the bank. Apr 28 01:56 PM
