Scrooge will Visit Apple and Dell for Xmas

November 14, 2008

Analysis of:Holiday shoppers like Apple and Dell | apple20.blogs.fortune.cnn.com

The ChangeWave survey paints an overly positive picture on Apple and Dell sales this year.  As Circuit City and Best Buy foreshadow, this holiday season will be awful for high-end products, especially those whose purchase can be forestalled.

Analysis of:Hey, Barack: Hire Me! A four-day plan to restore the U.S. economy By James Cramer | www.thebigmoney.com

This is NOT Jim Cramer bashing! However, let's look at the man's and his employers disclosure! Personally I do enjoy the CNBC educators/entertainers/reporters especially those that have some action in the game, and I firmly believe if the viewer is tempered correctly, and takes this information with its proper disclosures... the information does no harm. And yes, perhaps even does some good!

Another AT&T Cycle

November 5, 2008

Analysis of:AT&T's Troubling Trends | www.businessweek.com

Personally during the previous 30-years I have utilized the business and services of AT&T land line and wireless services. I have experienced the previous court break-up of AT&T - the dividend destruction of AT&T common stock, and never sure which company the current AT&T would purchase to bring it back to the AT&T of old.

What EXACTLY is in this thing? The “mark-to-market” effect.

November 3, 2008

Analysis of:Deutsche Bank profit plummets 94% | www.bankingtimes.co.uk

Deutsche Bank posted a profit in the third quarter of 2008, but only after adopting EU accounting rules (avoiding a loss by making so-called “mark-to-market” valuations of its investments) that allowed it to apply a new method of valuing its assets. Deutsche Bank senior executives will not be paid bonuses this year and shareholders have been warned that future dividend payouts will be affected by falling profitability this year and next.

I Bet Against Microsoft's Azure in Cloud War Against Amazon, Google, Sun, ...

October 31, 2008

Analysis of:Azure: Can Microsoft Meld Windows with the Web? | www.businessweek.com

Microsoft has a checkered history of product releases as of late -- from Vista to updated versions of Windows Mobile and Internet Explorer.  They seem to release minimal updates, expecting a non-demanding user not looking for vast improvements in user experience and features.  In the face of Google, Amazon.com, Sun, and others, they better overachieve with Azure, or they will face deep erosion of Windows within a few years.

Cox May Make Huge Mistake by Investing in Wireless

October 30, 2008

Analysis of:Cox to Enter Wireless Services in 2009 | www.businessweek.com

Cox must have something up their sleeve with wireless.  Otherwise, why would they become a Sprint MVNO, right on the heels of the huge flame-outs by Amped, Helio, Disney, and others?  Bundling surely can't be the only answer, as there has been precious little proof behind that strategy; there must be another reason.

Yahoo faces a miserable head wind entering this holiday season.  Retail marketers, those likely to drop big bucks around Turkey Day, are having a very bad Fall and may not chase the ghost of Christmas Future.  Yahoo's dependence on online display ad revenue could be disastrous for their holiday quarter.
