    Other Warren Buffetts

    I haven't done any current research but Healtheon and WebMD were together and WebMD gained from Healtheon's medical information services integrator business. I think WebMD may have been spunoff. If thats the case, yes it is a website, but it is the number one destination on the internet for...

    How insane is this?

    I am pretty sure most of majors make > 50% of their profits from non-gaming revenues at their properties. There is one exception and thats when I happen to be in Vegas and lose my ass to the house. I think on those days its the other way around.

    Cfc

    Good call, I'm bearish on the company, but the chart looks good. Bad business to be in, insiders dumping but the stock goes up and up. Sound like a buyout coming. tough to be short on this one in light of the chart and heavy institutional ownership. kudos!

    Warren Buffett..Now no 3 on forbes list

    Its really because straight up philanthropy today tends to be misguided and mis-used. Businessmen are in the business of making money not helping people in need. They are the supreme example of self-serving. Creating wealth rarely involves the betterment of fellow human beings. It just so...

    Washing My Hands Of Lenders/REITs

    Cal, unbelievable call at the short term top. Much Kudos. I've ridden some lenders down over the last few months and watched as more and more people jumped on the wagon. Too much bearish sentiment means the party was soon to end. I do however believe that with all the insider sells and...

    Gs / Nyx

    Anyone think GS is being pinned at 200 for friday? It shot up to 208.xx after delivering earnings but I suspect the whole sector took a bath (some deservedly so because of subprime issues), taking GS with it throughout the day. I'm thinking of going long GS for a quick bump up after...

    Here Is The Criminality That Stacks The Odds Against 'Us'

    Hounddog said it right quoted [So your true costs are fees + "insider theft".] that about sums it all up, but for some reason we(or I) still play in this school yard - and frequently get schooled.

    GMR - special dividend

    GMR has runup from 33 to 45 or so in the midst of announcing a 15$ special dividend payable to holders I think march 9th but goes ex-div on March 26th. Is it reasonable to expect GMR to gap down 15+reg dividend on the ex-dividend day. After removing 15 dollars of cash from the balance...
