Countrywide Bank of America Merger

February 13th, 2008 admin No comments

So I am torn about the Countrywide Bank of America Merger. I think both companies are great although I like Countrywide a lot more. I can’t help but get the feeling that Bank of America is a little bit too profit motivated based on my past experience with them. I have a feeling that Bank of America will envelope Countrywide, perform massive layoffs, tighten lending requirements and just basically eliminate a competitor. This instead of growing their business and market share.

The markets finished strong although off a little from the high of the day. Good news overwhelmed the huge loss from GM. I expect good things from after hours trading and a good performance for the week ahead. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 133.40 points up 1.09 percent for the day. The NASDAQ was basically unchanged after a good early start.

Yahoo has rejected the Microsoft bid

February 10th, 2008 admin No comments

Yahoo has rejected the Microsoft bid. In a very stupid move Yahoo claimed the bid was undervalued. Google has offered to help fight the takeover but Microsoft is not easily dissuaded. Microsoft can still take the offer directly to the shareholders. Microsoft could also offer more. We will see how this plays out.

The Senate passed the Stimulus plan with some minor changes

February 7th, 2008 admin No comments

The Senate passed the Stimulus plan with some minor changes. I like the way this looks and the speed at which it is being handeled. The Dow Jones Industrial Average liked the news increasing by 46.90 points up .38 percent for the day. The Nasdaq was up 14.28 points up .63 percent for the day. The best economic benefit is really the tax breaks for corporations and business incentives.
