Wow – just pulled this from George Bush’s, I mean Dick Cheney – woops Kenneth Lay’s website : Dear Visitor: Now that my trial has concluded, I would like to offer a few brief comments. Certainly, we are surprised at the verdict against me. Perhaps it is more appropriate to say we are shocked, as …

Trend following is not limited to stock markets – how about the art market!
On Sunday I did a wrap up of what I saw that was cool on the web. My favorite idea was to buy a painting from “onethousandpaintings” . I am no marketer, I could not put my finger on it, but I do like Art and although this is not construed as Art by most, …

Luckily, I was watching CNBC’s Bob Pisani at the actual bottom moment – when he declared that the pro’s were dumping . The stocks I purchased are up 10-15 percent in that timeframe. What a …
The hypocrite trend continues for BUSH.
Our glorious President has said repeatedly that he is “about MAIN STREET – not WALL STREET” With his announcement to make Goldman Sach’s leader Henry Paulson new Treasury Secretary – could he be further from that goal. It is like he is not even trying to remember an old thought anymore. I like Bill’s funny …
Apple and Nike – iNikes or the SwooshPod – Either way – "Just Crank It"
With the global markets in turmoil, I have spent the last week checking in on my favorite themes to see which ones I want to add on further weakness. I keep coming back to the Apple theme. Apple and Nike is all about the iPod, Apple and Steve Jobs. Nike has to build and market …
