There is also some closed end funds from BlackRock that offer some more alternatives. For example, I own some DSU and ARK which both have approximately 50% of their portfolios in floating rate assets, while the other half are in junk type bonds. I am sure they also have closed end funds that offer floating rate investments with quality bonds too.
Sovello Sale Makes Evergreen Solar a Buy [View article]
redduke, it is now a China solar company. I think there is a large disconnect as people do not realize it is no longer a US producer of Solar products. It is going to have the vast majority of its business over in China soon.

Sooner than later the analysts will wise up about the liquidity of the company, the improvements to cost structure, and up their expectations of the company in 2011/2012. As a result, upgrades should be coming after this next quarter regardless of anything happening unless manufacturing move to China plans are erased. So undervalued based on this risk. It should be trading up over $3 based on this alone.
Market Topping Call So Far Right… What To Look For Tomorrow to Confirm Top [View instapost]
Right now with such low volume it is hard to tell what the market is actually doing. I still think we need to see 1125 on SPX before we reverse. Whether we like technicals or not, a 50% retracement from last years highs to this years lows is healthy. Once we bounce up to that point a reversal down has a good chance to gain strength. Many are reluctant to go short until then!
Jamie Dimon: The Man Who Could Save Wall Street [View article]
I read the book House of Dimon. Regardless of anyones politics, he knows how to run a business. He knows how to lead and motivate effectively; not just hit objectives when times are good.
The guy is an American banking icon. Since he left Citigroup (which he helped build to be #1 in the world) he has helped take JP Morgan above his old company and into a powerhouse today. I think it's safe to say JP Morgan is either the best, or second best bank in the WORLD today. Them or Goldman being #1.
His fortress balance sheet approach to banking should be universally adopted. They may have had exposure to toxic derivatives, but as per a percent of the company, they handled their risk perfectly. That's why JPM is dominating banking today.
I agree with you on the probability it is #2. We are still seeing a retracement rally from highs to lows (50% fibonacci). I think we could turn back south after hitting 1,125 on the S&P 500 Index. Do you kind of agree?
