Nothing personal. I actually like Cisco as a company. Their products are not bad. That said, a new router is a frill and we are headed to a no-frills economy. Being a good company means they

Re: Please get rid of the stock touts 07/11/09
Agreed, looks like 3/4 of the posts now are brazen stock promotions without any analytical substance

Re: Cramer spoke of 07/11/09
Check out Cramer's track record. In the absence of any other information I'd bet against him.

Selling stocks is easier and more profitable for most stockbrokers than selling shorts and it creates an imbalance in the system in favor of buying pressure.

Re: DA BEARS ARE BACK!!!! 03/31/09
http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=disney+country+bear+jamboree&btnG=Google+Search&meta=&aq=f&oq= I'm surprised that the rally went that far with no substance. Whoever was dumping money into it was throwing good money after bad.

Save the Champagne 03/30/09
The lack of bad news for a couple of weeks isn't the same as getting good news or making fundamental changes. That rather obvious truth didn't slow down the ridiculous bear market rally of the past few weeks though. The structural problems in the economy and in large companies like GM and AIG are too complicated to deal with by just printing money. It has been said that supply side...

First stats showing the inflation are starting to come in.
