New Question: I heard Cramer rant on Fortinet the other night and after hearing
him and studying everything I can it seems to be a better than average bet. It
goes public tomorrow and I'd like to hear some opinions before backing the truck
up. -

Why are we not hearing anything about oil trusts with interest rates being so
low? Some of the trust pay a damn good dividends but you hear nothing from the
so called gurus.Why are these not an excellent buy with higher energy prices
down the road? -

- Q:
What is the consensus among all of you that the market may be getting like we
were in March only the opposite now? Of course predictions are like a lot of
other things everybody has one and somebody is going to be right. History seems
to be the predictor for a lot of so called pros which seems to mean sell now
because of whats happened so fast since the March lows and bullishness
environment. -

A: drew -
i remember you talking about that a few months ago. though i personally have been working
off of a 1975 analogy, i think youre right on with your analysis.
regardless of which one you look at the larger point is that markets dont need a 'retest'
to bottom out. they can have a V shape and do so under the worst of economic conditions.
lazlo barini made a great point that once you get a rally coming out of a recession, its
more likely than not to go a whole year without a 10% correction.
i went back and looked, sure enough, its almost always the case. more - Post your own answer

- Q:
I would like to know what the consensus is on VZ. All I know is since the merger
with Alltel their stores seem to more busy than any other I've seen. What I'm
seeing is waiting times of up to two hours. They really have no competition as
far as coverage where I'm located. -

A: The GM story may be influenced by the actions of Attorney Tom Lauria pushing back in the
name of 'justice' on behalf of Chrysler creditors and against a less than transparent and
heavy-handed tactics of an administration hell-bent on social engineering in favor of 'the
union'. Regardless of how little exposure the
national news franchises (video or print) provide about the power play of the Chrysler
story, the future is still in doubt in the short term (from the administrative's point of
view) but the facts will eventually be brought forth. And there are just too many
stakeholders with real money vested that will be chosen to lose or sacrifice that they
(real money stakeholders) will take some sort of legal action, devulging much of the real
story behind the scenes . . . unless, perhaps, there are continual efforts to quietly
convert what would be excess auto dealerships into purposeful and expansion storefronts
for other auto manufacturing franchises. All-in-all, there has to be more to the story
than is currently being reported or being openly discussed at this time. more - Post your own answer
- Q:
I was reading today what Buffet had to say about many of our companies CEO'S
that name their salaries and how their board members are nothing but a fraternal
organization that rubber stamp each other no questions ask. Their pay is what
ever they would like to make. I was a salesman all my life and like most was
paid a percentage of the profit. Wouldn't it be nice for publicly held companies
with gross sales over a certain amount have their top brass and boards paid the
same way. Call me a communist but if our elected representatives could force
this it would do a lot in putting integrity back in the market and the
government. I know there are to many corrupt and powerful people to let this
happen. But then again I'm just a old fart, what do I know?" -

A: give yourself more credit... Many of these CEO's flaunt on CNBC for no apparent reason
then to get national recognition. What gets me is Buffet is so cheap he never tips in
restaurants - - -ever - - , so these CEO excessive salaries must really be getting to
him. more - Post your own answer

A: After the Depression, there were some studies on the issue of who "controls" a modern
corporation. Management does not own, the shareholders do. Institutional investors are
primarily passive (ie, do not vote shares). Executive compensation is difficult to change
although an individual shareholder is always free to sell shares in a company which is too
generous. more - Post your own answer
