The Market Is Overreacting

The jobless claims increased to 500,000, highest since November, and the DOW is down 150 points (until now). Most investors apparently that we're all going to die! Not! It's odd that nobody thought about the oil spill, and all the mess it created. The...

3 weeks ago, the SEC charged Citigroup for misleading investors back in 2007 about the bank's exposure to the subprime mortages. Citigroup agreed to pay $75 million in penalty. SEC felt triumphant, and Citigroup felt relieved. Apparently an investor...

If there is a technology company that relies on revenue by selling obsolete technology, has no vision, loathed by its users, and spending money on useless acquisitions and then selling them for a fraction of the price, it must be AOL. Yet some people...

In this post, I would like to examine what Google is doing in order to foresee what will happen with their stock. Let's face it, everything that Google is doing lately is becoming a flop. Here is a list of some failed products: - Buzz: A twitter...

I have to say one of the most impressive companies in the world at the moment is Facebook. They are probably one of the very few mega-websites that are still growing month-to-month. But there is a problem, and it was bound to happen: Paul Ceglia. In...

One of the most interesting stocks (besides BP and RIG) for me is AAPL. I am noticing that the stock is affected by a scandal every other week, whether it's the antennagate, or selling confidential data about Apple products. It's interesting to see how...
