Thanks Barry. Interesting chart. I wonder how can it be adjusted to real interest rate. FED, inflation and speculation seem to the the real determinants of stock prices rather than the profit they generate or the value the companies create. Since I posted the question, the markets have gone up ...

Joshua - Just like the mobile companies trying to provide internet services, comcast is trying to expand into mobile. They seem to have wifi hotspots all over the place and they use that infrastructure wherever possible. They are providing mobile services for cheaper price. Not sure if it will catch ...

Rob - I am still working on it. Predicting market direction that is. 😁 I too believed that staying invested is the right thing to do. I also believed that index investing is the best approach. However, I am starting to question those beliefs. Do you think the low interest rate and its ...

Hi Joshua - VZ does look like a good value play. At least compared to T-Moble and AT&T. What do you think about comcast? They are trying to enter the same market. Their numbers too look good to me. ------------------------------ vNu ------------------------------

Rob - I think the direction of the general market is more important now than before. In addition to P/E and P/S another important consideration should be debt. ------------------------------ vNu ------------------------------

That is very interesting.. This one and the '89 & '07 events are caused by people who did not understand the risk. And the LTCM debacle was caused by the guys who were experts in risk management. Does anyone know the risks? ------------------------------ vNu ------------------------------

Thanks Barry for the detailed reply which I greatly appreciate. #4 : My idea of a value on a stock is also based on EPS. If I can get a return more than the CD rate I can safely get from a bank, I will consider it 'value'. If you take the case TSM, the EPS is 6.26 and the stock is at 88 which makes ...

Recession around the corner, interest rates going up, cost of doing business expected to go up and profit down. Not much different in the fixed income world, unrealized losses piling up, ratings down and defaults up. Is there a place to hide? Is there any place value is hiding?

I am new here. Even after the failure of a bank which is at the center of fifty percent of the growth companies it looks very quiet at this place. I wonder, what is the effect of these bank failures on the small technology companies and innovation in general. I also worry whether this is the beginning ...
