S&P 500 and Apple Playing Out Bearish Patterns

This guy is an imposter. He has no special expertise in markets or investing. He is merely using Seeking Alpha to push his short position.

Mac vs. PC vs. Gold

No that I think about it more, if everybody took 'delivery' of their 'gold' the effect would be no different than a run on the bank in a fiat system because there are more issuances of paper gold than there is real gold. There is no difference.
And buying gold at this price doesn't make sense either because you would be buying at an inflated 'bubble' price so that if the worst were to come true, much like your house you bought at the top of the real estate bubble, the gold you would be holding be worth less in real terms than when you bought it.

Mac vs. PC vs. Gold

But if there are 140 oz of 'paper gold' for every ounce of 'real gold' how is that different than fiat??? That actually is bubble-ish because the extra issuance of 'paper gold' has effected the fundamental value of the 'real gold'

Microsoft Admits Apple's iPhone Is Better

Why is it a big deal if Microsoft writes software for the iPhone? Good for them. They are a software company. Thats what they do. They've written software for the Mac since the very beginning. Get a grip. Jeez.

Apple Falls Flat as Market Rebounds - Is There Really Investor Confidence?

Because at some point all of the shorts have to cover. Smart money stopped shorting in October. Now it is just a bunch of fools being led to slaughter. Good luck on that short position.

Cash Position Best for Apple Investor

Apple is now trading at a forward P/E of 15 and they've sold more iPhones than even the most bullish estimates. At some point this craziness must end.

MSFT: Now's the Time to Buy

Who cares if Microsoft are 'creative'. As an investor, all I care is that they make money. Loads, and loads of sweet, sweet delicious money.

Should Apple Be Worth More Than Google?

iPhone > Android

That's why.

Just think PCx10 and you get the implication of all of this.

Appetite for Risk? Buy Some RIMM

You did not mention that the iPhone's use of Microsoft's ActiveSync technology basically makes RIM's NOC and message servers obsolete. Blackberries cost a business an extra $60 per user [i]per month[/i] than the iPhone to maintain like services. By cutting out the extraneous middleman(RIM's NOC) and interfacing directly with the Microsoft Exchange database, which most companies use anyways, not only saves a business significant amounts of money, but introduces less points of failure from a stability and security standpoint.

Tell me businesses are not going to adopt the iPhone 3G please.

Wall Street Breakfast - Sample Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News by SA Editor Rachael Granby Bank trio becomes duo. Wells Fargo (WFC) will become the largest U.S. bank by branches with its bid for Wachovia (WB), after Citigroup (C) withdrew from compromise negotiations late yesterday on concerns about the quality of some of Wachovia's assets. Wells Fargo, with a bid valued at $11.4B, expects the purchase to be completed by the end of the year, and denies it will have to absorb assets shakier than originally thought. Government considers next steps. As the financial crisis continues to worsen, the U.S. government is considering two dramatic steps to turn around, or at least slow, the damage: guaranteeing billions of dollars in bank debt and temporarily insuring all U.S. bank deposits. The moves, which would mark the government's most extensive intervention to date, are in discussion stages only. Credit stays frozen. As frozen credit markets refuse to thaw, the cost of default protection on corporate bonds reaches new global records amid investor concerns the credit crisis will trigger corporate failures as companies struggle to finance their businesses. Interbank lending remains limited, and borrowing from the Fed's expanded discount window continued its trend of setting new highs every week, as the total daily average rose to $420.2B vs. $367.8B last week.

Better Choices - Cramer's Lightning Round (10/15/08)

by SA Editor Rachael Granby

Stocks discussed in the lightning round session of Jim Cramers Mad Money TV program,
Wednesday, October 15.

Bullish Calls:

Continental Resources (CLR) -- "This is a remarkable decline. All of the high quality ones are down so much, I can't go against it. This is where you pull the trigger.
3M (MMM) -- The moment this stock starts yielding 5%, I'm a buyer. Until then, keep your powder dry.

Bearish Calls:

Computer Sciences (CSC) -- This is a company that was going to be bought, but they passed up the chance. Now I don't want to buy it."
Annaly Mortgage (NLY) -- I think this is a business model that needs to borrow money. Definitively do not buy."
Northrop Grumman (NOC) -- You can't own the defense stocks right now. If I had to own one, I'd look at Lockheed Martin (LMT) with its good dividend.
