Analysis of:Einhorn Effect: Microsoft Shoots Higher After Hedge Fund Endorsement | blogs.wsj.com

Einhorn may have a point with what is going on with Microsoft. Wall Street operates by perception. It does not matter if Ballmer is a smart or a good guy, perception is reality. The tragedy of the stock market is that perception is reality and facts do not seem to matter.

Transparency, an overused and misused word in Washington, D.C., is absolutely necessary in a turnaround of this magnitude.

March 30, 2011

Analysis of:AT&T Outguns Sprint in Lobbying | online.wsj.com

Well you live and learn. The problem with regulatory budgets is that they are massive and unless you have a specific set of short term and long term objectives in mind, then it is important not to spend the money just for the sake of it. In short, Sprint did not need to spend that kind of money on lobbying in the last few years.
