Buy the book when I announce it and maybe you too can be enlightened. Just follow my posts and maybe you will learn something. Whats new to you is old to me. Same story different time. FULL disclosure I have had relationships with both companies in the past. This has no reflection on DISH...

The sale of Blockbuster to Dish despite my advice will create dish as a future leader in the space for everything digital. The blockbuster footprint allows them to get more content out to their clients with their program. Its slow and also this allows dish to stream movies on their networks on...

The shares of BAC are going lower and when it does the preferred drive the price down even further. Especially the convertible preferred to which you are probably referring to. In the event of default the preferred gets first payment. BAC wont go out of business but the road ahead is paved with...

Stick to the issues. Grpn is a good investment and for now is not a good trade. What makes a trader successful is knowing the difference. You take a good investment and watch it and when there is uncertainty then its time to trade it. I can't make an informed decision until the quiet period...

You are right. Even you will be a fan when your grpn stock is 300 and you own 1000 shares and you have an extra 150k in the bank after transferring the rest into a margin account. If you're a 64 year old person who doesn't understand the new markets coming then how can you invest. Old men who...

Its a simple equation. All the flippers are coming out of the stock. I don't think this transaction can be judged for the next thirty days when research is allowed to come up. Its in the quiet period. They raised capital and will most likely start an acquisition strategy to gain more revenue...

I live in New York and have worked in Wall Street for over 20 years and many of my elder colleagues were part of the last pot smoking drug banging crowd and they have done well. People see the OWS movement as a waste of time but lets say that they saved us the $5 fee from the banks. Also they...

You are completely right!!! This is the concept behind letting the private sector do private things like make money and pay taxes. I never saw a government office pay taxes yet. Do they even pay property taxes? Maybe they should be taxed? (I just went off the cliff> WOW) Cut the government...

Private sector Jobs is whats needed. You can't derive taxes from your self. If you pay your kids to mow the lawn it still comes from your pocket. they won't come back and buy lemonade from you. But if you pay the lawn company and they use your tax services you at least get something back. The...

I like that analogy. Kudos :-)

Wall Street has a funny way of throwing money around to fix problems and this OWS won't be different. Giving the protestors jobs will quickly take them out of the parks when the time is right. If you can't beat em; and you can't beat the street, then join em. With every job gained you create...

The issue is long term planning and risk and here you are recommending a series 3. Can you buy commodities in a retirement account? The trader takes the 1/8th and the 1/16th ten times while the investor takes it short term and lives to tell about it on the golf course years later. A series 3...

I have the simple solution for the occupy wall streeters. Why not pass around the Series 7 Manual and take the test. Become the new Wall street and lower the unemployment rate. Wall street firms should hire all the occupy protesters as new advisors and let them protest from within the sales...

If you hold at the banks multiple account the protection is not per account but per client. So if you have money which is more than the protection level then you have to keep the balance at another institution . Be aware what bank your brokerage firm is using. Borkerage accounts have higher...

If the stock falls below margin levels BAC will find cash to park its stock in. They have the US Govt pocket book to back them up. Now lets not ever forget that from levels of @ 3- 6 is 100% on your investment plus a small dividend means that the investors who are able to bear 10% downside risk...

Up 30% is not a great pop but its better than down 20% its a long term investment.

For every consumer that comes in with the coupon that creates brand loyalty. The additional business that comes in from the coupon is additional so why would a company not want that extra traffic. Buy one get one free means that an additional experience of distributing the brand occurred. For...

I believe that BAC has a lot of things to answer to. Its listening to the client and much of their revenue schemes will be uncovered. John Thane will have company very soon. BAC needed that $5 fee and now they don't have it they will not be able to meet earnings. More loans to be underwater...

we have been doing coupons for 10 years and I can tell you its the greatest business in the world. Its a spread business. Selling discounts is a win win win. If you short Groupon you are out of your mind. This IPO is more about visibility than earnings. They should be profitable in 18 months and...
