      juiceyjoo=shortseller.... having to pay the dividend is killing them.Look at Einhorn.He has lost tens of thousands.Carry over earnings must be hard for the simple minded to comprehend.Maybe they should invest in something they understand.If ALD is a ponzi,they have gotten away with it an awful long time.Einhorn's case is they have made bad loans and will lose money from them.Well they have admitted in the last two qtrs that some investments have soured,but they have placed credit facilities with many ,many companies that are doing well.Even if some bad investment(which are inevitable in this business)do not pan out,and earnings suffer for a few qtrs they may have to rduce their divi to say .55 per share.big deal.What does that put the yeild at?15%?I can live with that.

    • Buy, Sell, or Hold Fertilizer Stocks: Agriculture Bust (Part II) [view article]
      Maggie is correct.As the price of oil goes down(with gasoline to follow),people will use more.Thus the price will rise.The fact is there are no new LARGE oil fields to be found.The world still uses more than they can produce.Any drop in price will prompt hoarding,careless use and of course up it goes again.Drops in price now should be good entry points.Production of Ethanol though not a good use of the resource,and not very cost effective, will rise in the future.

      I anyone really believes the commodity run is over,guess again.Population growth will drive food,oil,etc.When the world's population starts to decline,then I might be a believer.Economic slowdowns will occur,but growth is inevitable. Aug 08 10:34 AM

      Once again another Alpha short seller chimes in on ALD.Recent earnings were double last years quarter.Newly placed funding to several large companies,including joint ventures with GE capital insures earnings will grow in the future.Thus dividends can continue to be paid.Not to mention ALD has stated they will pay the dividend thru the rest of the year.Recent upgrades by analyts seem to be ignored by these shorters.Seems the reasons to continue to hold ALD are as good as the ones to sell.Einhorn has made plenty of bad calls on companies,lost money.But this time he took it personnal.Bad move for an investor.He writes a sappy book to recover his losses and the rest of us are expected to feel sorry for him.If the SEC could find no reason to fine ALD,who are we to believe?This is all old news.The world is moving on maybe Einhorn and Alpha should also.

      I have learned to take quite a few grains of salt with any comments from ALPHA.In house short sellers use this as a forum to spread their rumors and conjecture to move a stock in the direction they desire.Take AMSC for example.At 32$ per share they were noting how the CEO had sold shares and that they really have no real products in the wind technology space and that you would be better off with GE.Todays price is in the 43$ range.Don't take to heart what you read at SEEKING ALPHA,they have their own agenda.

    • EWZ Not a True Indicator of Brazilian Economy [view article]
      "..when you consider their current economic condition."But they have yet to tap the new oil fields offshore,and most analyst say commodities will continue to go higher.It's pretty obvious someone is trying to make their short position pay off.Many of the things the author says may be true today,but the markets look forward,and the future for Brazil is bright.

    • Book Review: David Einhorn's 'Fooling Some of the People All of the Time' [view article]
      Read the insider trades on ALD.That says more than Einhorn does about this company.Could be HE can't read complex financial reports.I suppose the officers at GE Finance are also fools..not!He gambled and lost.It happens all the time. May 14 03:45 PM
    • Red Flags at American Superconductor: Don't Get Burned [view article]
      Like the writer who is short ALD(which I might add is up 1.40$ since Einhorn's book released),there seems to be no level too low for short hedge funds will sink to get their way with a stock.You overlook the fact that wind power will become a major component in this country in the coming years.The markets look forward,not backward.You are not smarter than everyone else as most shorts believe.
