Why I'm Selling Apple and Google Today - and Holding Amazon

Same reason I am waiting until Buffett kicks the can. I will pick up BRK at that time.

What's your thoughts on the future of sales tax on the internet. At some point, with all this money we are spending, i assume that will be looked at as a possible solution to get extra money. If amazon is taxed, their no different than anyone else on the street (after various rebates and what not). I love em, and I shop there a lot, I just can't own a Blue chip with a PE of 34

How Low Can Google Go?

SmartStops: Approach the market in what way? It was valued at a reasonable price in relation to their earnings growth.... It's not their fault everyone freaked out and started selling everything. Heck, they threw the house out with the bathtube, not just the baby. It was a better valuation than Yahoo, BIDU, etc... Yes, you're correct, people should utililze stops and protect thier profits, but to call their approach ridiculous isn't fair. What's happening now is ridiculous. The market, not their trading styles are ridiculous. Offer advice, not just negativity...

Emerging Markets Ready to Re-emerge - Barron's

The loan-to-deposit ratio in Hong Kong (ETF: EWH) is 57.4%, in China (ETFs: FXI, PGJ) p 65%; Indonesia 72% (IF); the Philippines 73%; Malaysia 74% (EWM), and Taiwan 78% (EWT). The loan-to-deposit ratios in India (INP), Korea (EWY) and Thailand (THD) all exceed 100%.

If I am correct, doesn't the higher ratio mean the banks rely on borrowed money? If this is the case, aren't these historically high? or at least high enough to be worried with all the credit crisis going around?

Thanks

I will agree that people might toss the baby out with the bathwater, but that would mean a buying opportunity in my mind..

A Gigantic Buy - Cramer's Stop Trading! (9/23/08)

I don't agree with GME. Gamers aren't subject to the same people as clothing stores. Heck, I saved $50 by purchasing the new starwars game and staying home for the evening and not going out on the town.

Interview with Jim Rogers, Part II: China as World’s Best Long-Term Profit Play

You forget these guys more than likely don't care, because they can afford to purchase million more shares and cost average down enough to not bother worrying.

Do you have any thoughts on whether TSO or VLO is a better buy? Did you look at that as well?

Research In Motion's 3G Counteroffensive: The Smartphone Arms Race Escalates

Cutting prices means cutting margins. That's not good for an investor. I am waiting for a BB touch phone. I will say, it is VERY tough not to purchase an Iphone. I mean VERY tough.......but I want to give RIMM a chance. They better hurry because once my friends start making fun of me for having a samsung blackjack, i am picking up an iphone if RIMM doesn't have something on the market. End of story.....

Finding Value in the P/B Ratio

How can you put a price-to-book and the banks, when no one knows what's on their books hiding? I think you should toss those out and start over.

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. Oil demand withers. The International Energy Agency warned Friday worldwide oil demand... Email continues...

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.
