  • Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News [View article]
    I think there was some "insider trading" on the STZ/BUD deal. First they come out with the news that the DOJ has filed suit to block the deal, sending the stock down. I owned a lot of STZ and read an article on SA that STZ was a terrible company etc etc. I panicked and sold out my position. A few weeks later they modify the deal and the DOJ gives it's blessing. The stock goes up about 30%!

  • Constellation Is No "Bud" To You [View article]
    I don't understand why the stock is up over $11 just on the prospects of the deal going through.

    It wouldn't have made a difference this time but should be changed anyway. After they get the fiscal cliff resolved and figure out a way to pass a budget, create a million jobs etc......

    Excellent point on the GM bankruptcy. I don't understand why Romney didn't come back on Obama and say something like "I've got news for you... GM DID go bankrupt!!" Also the bond holders got the shaft. I agree with Clint Eastwood that Obama's presidency is the biggest hoax ever perpetuated on the American people.

    I think it's very possible that Romney will win the popular vote but Obama will win the electoral vote. It seems that in this day & age they should do away with the electoral vote. All a candidate has to do is win a state by one vote and he gets ALL of the electoral votes. Is that fair?

  • Hurricane Sandy is projected to make landfall by Tuesday morning, after which it could combine with two winter weather systems and create a super "Frankenstorm." Experts warn that the damage could be greater than the $15B worth caused by Hurricane Irene last year. Hardware stores such as Home Depot (HD) are doing a brisk trade as people stock up on essentials, but oil refineries and insurers will probably get hit hard. [View news story]
    Guess not. LOL

    Thanks for your thoughts. I just had 2000 shares of T called away @36 and was thinking of waiting to re-deploy the cash until the market's direction becomes more clear.

    Haven't seen any option articles from you in awhile. Are you waiting until after the election to initiate any new positions?

    Maybe WAG didn't cough up enough money for Team Obama?

    I saw where the DOD excluded WAG from participating in the Express Scripts prescription program. Has this changed?
