  • Sirius Conference Highlights - Solid Balance Sheet, Improved EBITDA, Increased FCF [View article]
    This is a stock where past performance means nothing. If Howard Stern leaves (which I doubt) the bottom falls out the next day. End of story. Just check all the affiliates he left when he left terrestrial radio. They were successful. Now they are doing crop reports.

  • Rescuing the Pension Plans: Just Don't Call It a 'Bailout' [View article]
    The problem, as you correctly allude to, is the LACK of regulation not "Socialism". The people running the plans were allowed to dip their hands into the pot (a la leveraged buyouts etc) and underfund those plans by just predicting unreasonably high returns on the money they were putting in. Now, the poor schmo who was paying his share of the pension for 30 years is painted as a freeloader. Meanwhile the people who bent the rules get to run to the govt for protection..

  • Give Priority to Natural Gas for an Energy Independent Future [View article]
    NG is considered a bridge fuel b/c it, like oil, won't last forever. They just have to last until we can make the technological jump to the next energy source(s). The problem is we hit peak oil in the 70's and may have also hit peak gas so we better be developing alternatives now b/c fossil fuels will only be scarcer and more expensive going forward.
