      Is Buy-and-Hold Dead? Hardly
      Jeff Macke is a CNBC grouch who makes inflamatory statements to attract viewers. He is happy to say one thing and trade the opposite. Buy and hold may look bad now, but less look at the things in context of a few years and then decide.

      Share Buybacks Make Apple Sweeter
      I 100% agree with you when it comes to Apple. It is going to have a massive year end rally and that’s why I am buying call options on Apple, which is basically now the leader in tech. Where Apple goes, the rest follow.

      A Way to Play the InBev and Anheuser-Busch Takeover
      You would be up $800 on this deal if you had bought the Dec $65 call options. Not bad for a week's wait.

      ROH, DOW, BUD:Three Arbitrage Opportunities?
      I wrote recently here at SA and my site about the BUD/In Bev play using Dec 65 call options. Look's like the strategy is paying off today. With credit markets loosening and falling interest rates the market is getting more confident about this deal. Still not to late to play it.

      Possible Outcomes of My Apple Purchase
      Good strategy in this volatile market. I own apple but bought at a much higher price, so riding it out for the long term. I do think however the new year will bring a nice run up in the stock markets and AAPL will jump by 30 to 40%.

      I like the simple way you explained this strategy. I am planning to do a similr one with GE. For WBE, check out this introductory artice into options: www.savingtoinvest.com...

      Why Oil and Gold Are Headed Much Higher
      Good analysis and the temporary respite in oil prices could be the time to invest in related assets. The dollar is also insulating prices

      Coal's Dark Days Are Over
      Great analysis. Do you think buying the KOL etf is a better play than specific stocks?

      Stocks Plunge, Dollar Surges
      A vicious deflationary cycle is about to ensue and the US dollar is one of the few relatively safe areas (thanks to treasuries). Still be are about to be slammed as follows: Banks worldwide, stung by $588 billion in write-downs related to toxic assets -- especially mortgage-related securities -- will further reduce the flow of credit, strangling growth. That will push house prices lower, forcing additional losses and making banks even more reluctant to lend. As the credit crisis worsens, businesses will find it almost impossible to raise prices. They will then be forced to close or start laying off employees, which will in turn reduce consumer demand and thus create a vicious downward economic spiral.

      The Deal's Getting Done, But Will It Work?
      The common slogan from both parties and presidential candidates in justifying the bailout has been about helping “main” street, rather than Wall Street. But will the mother of all bailout packages really help? I have posted two contrasting articles on the long term fallout from the bailout and also why it could be profitable for taxpayers. Based on the information to date, my view is that in the medium term we will probably stave off a recession. But a long term recovery hinges entirely on home prices and the related mortgage debt improving by 2010, otherwise the current bailout will do little do prevent a much more severe recession. So could the government have taken a different approach to resolving the current financial crisis? Perhaps and here are some of the other “extreme” economic fixes that could have been undertaken instead on this mega-bailout.

      Goldman stumbled and market crumbled! No one is safe and perhaps cash under your mattress is the safest investment now.

      An Optimist Looks at the Market
      Thanks for everyone's comments. Probably wasn't the best weekend to publish this post given the bad news around the financials over the weekend. Hey - I was just trying to look on the bright side of things amid all the negativity. I am realistic enough to know that it will take time for things to work themselves out but if I was as pessimistic as some of the commentors I would have sold my entire portfolio off and keep what cash I had left under my bed!

      Unintended Consequences of the Fannie / Freddie Bailout
      All I can say is just be careful about investing into this temporary bubble. As I posted recently, the impacts and outcomes of this bailout have a long way to go still.
