Will Oil Be the Last Asset Standing?

The Administration fears oil prices since it it rises for any reason over any period of time, the economy is hurt in ways you can not imagine.

This means the administration will quickly ration oil and gasoline and the right to drive. It is obvious they can not manage supply so use will get managed.

Expecting a Sell-Off: 35 Ways to Protect for Less

The analysis is thin on why, and therefor the possible depth and time for a correction.

Microsoft: Whistling in the Dark

The Ballmer strategy is just warmed over Gates strategy: how to kill away a cash cow by selling milk to your competition. Are black and blue the man's favorite colors?

The company would be best split up into its divisions and NEW management hired, or sold to real managers who like red meat.

Will, now they have lost "word" in an infringement case, plus 290 million. The night is dark and the wind is blowing. Hold on, but sell MSFT first.

Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News

In the end the Presidential election doesn't matter unless you reform of Congress first.
The financial problems started with Congress (true of most national problems), not the White house, and Congress (which is corrupt to the last degree of its being) will stall any Presidential initiatives regardless of purpose or office holder. As a nation we are in chains and can not help ourselves. The notion of a national congress serving the public interests was an illusion and we are only now seeing its limits. We need new gold backed money, a new constitution in which Congress is limited in its powers to enter into any activity not having to do with taxation, war powers/defense, and the post roads. Yow retrograde!
