I am not sure who will survive and what the landscape will look like, but banks are still the best business once the shit is cleared out of the system. Big bets are already being plunked down in the last few days on who will survive and thrive. That type of betting is not for …

Wallstrip Gets a New Look and we Deliver Papa John's (PZZA)
When I created Wallstrip , the idea was one show a day about a stock at or near an-all time high and a look at the issues of why it was hot and than you were left to ponder if it could continue. I have owned many of the stocks that we have covered and …
Deep Market Thoughts…Our Spirit is Broken Just Go Outside
You know it’s slim pickings in technology when Yahoo looks like the best internet stock. Seriously, at this point, Yang is best to go it alone rather than hand the reigns to Steve ‘LIP’ Ballmer. As for Carl Icahn, he should be buying graveyards, and biotechs aimed at virility, not web businesses. The investment world …
Dude…Where did you put 3,000 Dow Points?
Other than Bloomberg , ‘The Fly ‘, and StockTwits stream on Twitter, I have cut down on my financial reading. I am still excited to grab a weekend Investor’s Business Daily just to check in on the leadership, but that’s been a waste of time lately. I have learned that writing about stocks and the …
Without Fannie or Freddie Who Will Lend me on This Third Home?
I need a quick $50,000 for this property . Thanks to StockJockey for getting me the aerial photo.
Downsize…Focus…Pounce!
In 2005 The ‘Venture Vixen’ and I sold our oversized home and lot in Paradise Valley for something half the size. Our utlility bill in the summer was over $500 per month and could spike to $700 with the pool. Dumb. We sold the home the first day on the market as if it was …

Web Video Still Exploding…Newspapers Still Imploding
Newspapers are still relevant so this is not another Newspaper death message (just mostly dead). Alley Insider is with me on the ‘mostly dead’ theme as well. I read Investor’s Business daily and when I go to the grocery store to buy Captain Crunch and thirty people are ahead of me in the express line …
Bad Day for Capitalism…Good Day for Government Lovers…Fannie Mae (FNM)
Fannie Mae is now a carcass for the government to deal with. Sadly, they refused to deal with it while the stock was riding high and insiders were dumping stock like I dump an hour after a Carnegie Deli Pastrami sandwich (clear enough picture for you). Making fun and warning of Fannie Mae is not …
Southwest Airlines (LUV) on Wallstrip…Best of the Worst
As they say in real estate…NICE House…Shitty Neighborhood. We all know I hate the airline industry. There are just too many touch points with employees and customers. It’s a bottomless pit for common shareholders and not an industry I recommend. BUT, I love and respect Southwest Airlines for their ability to survive without government support …
