Big Mergers Could Mean Sweet Gains for Biotech

what aboout the obama factor on big pharma with his not believing that drug companies should be profit-making companies?

will this view not kill their growth and earnings, even if he doesn't get all he wants passed against them?

Plenty of Upside for Northrop Grumman - Barron's

thedivot,

these companies don't have fat margins now; they have lots of revenue, but thin margins. you're right; it could get worse.

GD has a $75b backlog and contracts that should stand; it looks the better choice of the whole lot to me.

The Great Awakening: Boomers, Your Crisis Has Arrived (Part 3 of 3)

i think the Dodger has nailed down a good point. i was about half way thru when i asked myself, why i am reading this piece.

i came to this site to get investing info and i find an author using an FDR man-the-battle-station... quote and rambling on and on about cultural generational problems.

a good editor is called for with your writings james quinn, if i may say so. even if it fit the site it's too much too much.

DryShips Looks Good, Even Without Its Dividends

AD, my husband tells me that i have to have the last word on every subject and that i'm never wrong.

i think you've stung Ms. Fiakas and me to our toes. i catch myself defending everything before i know it.

it could be a feminine trait, as you seem to imply, but pointing it out ought to help a lot of us gals work on that fault. if we can force ourselves to admit to it. hee, hee.

as far as investing goes, we surely need to admit and learn from our mistakes, to become better investors. that is the point of this blog, is it not?

On Keynes, The Stimulus and Old Ideas

AD's comment makes more sense than any i've seen in regard to the government's intervening and controlling the private sector.

yes i say, demolish the thing and start over small. it's sick, broken and dying. why try to save a terminal patient?

Thank you for the clarifications and for your work.

Obama 'Shines' Natural Gas

the problem i see is the real eco-crazies that so strongly backed obama hate oil, hate gas, hate nuclear, and hate coal. in any form!

with perhaps a $7 trillion infrastructure already built to service this type of energy, how are we going to be able to dump all of those and move to alternatives as quickly as the eco-crazies are demanding?

and from what i understand:

wind? not available everywhere in amounts enough to supply power.
solar? very expensive; and the metals it demands are rare and toxic.
natural gas? will require a huge new infrastructure to change over and the crazies hate it, too.

obama must try to please the crazies, who won't compromise one lick. so then, realistically, how does he make the US energy independent?

Michael, you've been negative on US stocks for years. It's obvious that you would pick a Faber article, who has also been as negative as you.
