Handheld Update – Motorola and Rimm
Motorola is $1 below a 5-year high and RIMM has rallied 17 straight points off it’s yearly lows to stand a few percent off it’s all-time highs. In a trendless market, their absolute strength stand-out. They are front and center on my tech watchlist. I am seeing Q’s and Blackberries wherever I go. Japan and …
CNBC = MUTE
Maybe the most heavily muted station in the free world is CNBC. I would love to see an experiment where Maria Bartoromo says P@nis every 2 minutes for a whole day. I think no one would complain. For a just as funny and biting CNBC review – enjoy this post by Financial RX, entitled “Memo …

War and Peace – Nasdaq 2006

Google and EBay sitting on a tree – K.I.S.S.I.N.G. …
I like Ebay the stock these days and own some in the 24’s. It was not a normal buy for me as I posted (search it) when I bought it, but it was/is too hated. There was toooo much Google fear. It has been a nice trade – sitting now back above $27 today and …
