Not Worth The Extra

eBikes: Exciting Development in Green Transportation

I recently visited three BestBuy stores and all of them feature three different kinds of e-bikes right next to the entrance doors. They look so cool. I am getting the blue one that is listed for $849 apiece. I love that feel of riding on it.

Considering that my workplace is only 2.5 miles from where I live, it is so much fun to ride in the open air. It is better than a convertible. When it rains, I just take the bus. I love using public transportation. Cars are useful, but we don't need them all the time especially when there is only the driver inside the car. Imagine having 2,000 - 5,000 pounds around you moving with you at the very same speed as you do (your car)! Why do we need to drive all the time? Wake up American. Drive only when necessary.

The Visa IPO: Taking a Wait and See Approach

Visa is passive income. The infrastructure is set up. It just waits for money to come in as each transaction is carried out automatically by banks. What business is better than businesses that earn passive income? Think of why so many people buy investment properties and have them rented out.

The fact that the company only has a few hundred employees and still manage to have this exceptionally huge world-wide market, gee, why own MA when V has the biggiest share? Always go with the leader.

Much like the case with YHOO and GOOG, why GOOG deserves a higher P/E than YHOO initially after IPO? Much as why V deserves a higher P/E than MA initially after IPO?

MA cannot touch V in the short term, in the middle term, and in the long term.

Buy the market leader. Buy the world-wide leader. Buy the passive business model. Buy the no credit risk model. Buy the high revenue, low maintenance and employees model. Buy the star IPO status (one of the world's three biggest IPO ever!!).

We are so lucky to have V go IPO during this bad market sentiment. If it was IPOed the same time as MA was, V could have seen $90 the first trading day.

This is totally not worth any extra doubt. Just hop in the train and enjoy the ride like I did with GOOG when everyone bashed about its P/E vs. Yahoo's during Google's ipo.

CITI: $8 Target on Sirius

I tried XM Radio with my BMW, but I just don't like it anymore. I do not see the specialty. And now, I have a new HD Radio Tuner installed and in replacement of the XM unit.

Am I the only one out there?

Homebuilder Performance and Revenue Matrix

The cycle is almost bottom, and sometimes we can also be surprised by how fast things change too. We cannot point to a bottom until one is formed, for me, I bought in Feb 2008 HOV and I said to myself I must be crazy. Yet, the last time we had tech bubble, I kicked myself for not buying in Yahoo when it was below 10 a share. I still remember that day that I was off from work and was looking at the market the entire morning and I though Yahoo could go down more and everyone else was saying gravity would pull Yahoo further down. I listened just when everyone was saying the same thing.

Why New Oil Price Highs?

Use Biodiesel fuel that is made from recycled cooking oil and animal fats. For example Gushan (GU) NYSE.

Why New Oil Price Highs?

Try Electronic Bullet Trains... how hard can it be... It is so shame that we always say that we lead other nations, but we are actually so much behind even for basic transportation technology.
