  • Senator Schumer Misses the Full Picture on A-Power's Joint Texas Wind Farm [View article]
    So Senator Schumer is against "green" energy?? Ok.

    It's all part Obamanomics. Sell green energy support to the nation at election time, while taking money from the Illinois coal producers. Pander to the uneducated, wind fall tax "big oil" when XOM spends $10 billion on cap ex. etc, etc.

    It's ok, Schumer will be on the Air America book tour by this time next year.

    Haha
    What an idiot.

    When the Universal deal goes through with GE in the next few weeks, let's all hope they clean house starting with CNBC and MSNBC.

    Watch Bloomberg.

  • Recovery is "far from assured" for GM and Chrysler, says former auto task force chief Steven Rattner, who said in a Fortune piece that he was "shocked by the stunningly poor management we found," especially at GM.  [View news story]
    Since we're talking about lyrics. I especially love the National Ad Campaign from Ford using Blue Oyster Cult- conveniently leaving out one line for Lincoln.

    Burn out the day
    Burn out the night
    I can't see no reason to put up a fight
    I'm living for givin' the devil his due
    And I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you

    Are they trying to sell cars to Ozzy?

    Ford - I gotta have more cowbell.

  • Although a Star, Whitney Could Be Wrong on Goldman [View article]
    I am still dumbfounded over Ms Whitney's self proclaimed and esoteric anal-yst "star status." She didn't predict anything a million others didn't already know; except she has a great publisist and CNBC hype for ratings.

    Reminds me a lot of Mary Meeker.
    Who?
    Exactly.

  • Jacobs Engineering: A Constructive Long-Term View [View article]
    Paul, first, I'm long on JEC and I like this company very much. It's a great play. You worte a similar article on April 1, @ $38 and change.

    Is this a new play? Or did you sell on the straight price appreciation?

    Excellent call on MON too.

    Paul, I too like this play.
    What about the anti trust review by the DOJ?

  • Accenture: Why This Revenue Leader Is Not the Leader by Market Value [View article]
    Oh Naveen, Ouch!

    Bad timing I guess. INFY raises forecast and the stock gets hammered.

  • An Ode to Pepsi Stock [View article]
    PEP is my oldest holding. I bought and forgot. I have done very well with it as a part of a balanced portfolio.

    In addition to the divys, it has provided shareholder value with the massive spin off of YUM and multiple buy backs and splits.

    Also, they typically split around the 60-70 range. Then after the split it dips for a month or so, then heads back up, steadily. That may be a good opportuntiy to get back in.

    Having said that, as a long term holder of PEP, I am very concerned about the new target painted on this industry. Be it soft drinks of potato chips, when the Pelsoi party secures their talons in the backs of American, they feel as if they need to protect people against themselves. As you know, people are inherently stupid so we need big governement to control us; what we eat and drink. America is fat and they are targeting soft drinks and snack foods; rather than promoting a balanced diet and exercise.

    Last year it was "BIG EVIL OIL" and this year its "BIG EVIL JUNK FOOD." I believe NY is thinking of a special tax on "junk food."

    That concerns me.

  • Cramer's Lightning Round - Palm Is a Long-Term Winner (10/7/09) [View article]
    He's wrong about Palm too. How many people do you know that use a Palm? I used one in 1998 before I got a BB.

  • The U.S. Dollar and Oil: Is an Endgame Near? [View article]
    Hey Fitzy, your my go to guy on Nat Gas. How come no article on the very large percentage jump back to $5?? I drank the Kool Aid.

    The CS downgrade of DVN and CHK was a laugh. That means strong buy.

    APA getting ready to hit 100 again. And MRO strong buy on valuation.

    Obama special interest delaying the inevitable power gen conversion from coal to nat gas...

  • Accenture: Why This Revenue Leader Is Not the Leader by Market Value [View article]
    We'll see what happens in the next five years!!!!

    You didn't comment on the Satyam account methods or the general quality of the work or the bureaucratic culture. I'm very familiar with these points.

    I'll stick with ACN and you can try to time INFY/WIT...maybe they will be back to the 2000 levels in 10 more years or the 2007 level again.

    Time in the market; not timing the market.

  • Accenture: Why This Revenue Leader Is Not the Leader by Market Value [View article]
    From a client POV. I have worked with ACN, INFY, WIT.

    What you fail to mention here is that INFY and WIT take twice as long to do half the work. Then the amount of time it takes to have another company redo their work. How do you account for that on a balance sheet?

    Oh yeah, then there is the Satyam accounting methods to consider....

  • The Marathon to Gold: Invest in Brazil [View article]
    TNE with 7 billion MC, 19 billion EV, 16 billion in debt and a 62 PE.

    Good Luck with that one.

    Your missing BRF here. The small cap stocks will benefit the most with the Olympics.

    The Olympics are a great way for a country to get into more debt. The cities may recognize economic growth, but the country will not benefit.
