Microsoft’s Estimates Slashed at FBR Capital (MSFT)

admin — Fri, 17 Sep 2010 13:02:55 +0000

Software giant Microsoft Corporation ( MSFT ) on Friday saw its earnings estimates through 2012 cut by analysts at FBR Capital Markets. The firm maintained its “Outperform” rating and $32 price target on the stock, however. That target represents an expected 26% upside to the stock’s Thursday closing price of $25.33. An FBR analyst commented, “We are lowering our estimates to reflect lower-than-expected PC shipments … Economic uncertainty is expected to dampen consumer demand for PCs … We are lowering our 2H CY10 PC growth estimate to 10% from 17% … We believe the corporate PC refresh cycle that is underway should continue despite renewed economic uncertainty…We think there is a good possibility that Halo Reach drives EDD revenue upside in the current F1Q (Sep) quarter as it will be available for roughly two weeks in the quarter.” Microsoft shares rose 10 cents, or +0.4%, in premarket trading Friday. The Bottom Line Shares of MSFT have a dividend yield of 2.05%, based on last night’s closing stock price of $25.33. The stock has technical support in the $23-$24 price area. If the shares can firm up, we see overhead resistance around the $27-$28 price levels. We would remain on the sidelines for now. Microsoft Corporation ( MSFT ) is not recommended at this time, holding a Dividend.com DARS™ Rating of 3.4 out of 5 stars.

Why Is a Rise in Corporate Profits Not Creating More Jobs?

admin — Tue, 03 Aug 2010 15:20:00 +0000

Filed under: Ford Motor (F) , China , Employees , Financial Crisis This is earnings season. By most accounts, corporations are reporting higher profits this year than last. If this is the case, you would assume that more jobs are being created. This is not happening. Robert Reich, a Columbia University professor, offers his reasons why higher corporate profits are not creating more jobs. He cites GM as an example. GM sells more cars in China than it does in the U.S. GM has 32,000 hourly workers in China, as compared to 52,000 hourly workers in the U.S. This is down from 468,000 in 1970. GM insists that no American taxpayer money is being used to expand in China. But GM can use the money it makes in China to pay American workers and pay down debt.

MSNBC’s Ed Schultz Demands Return to the Fairness Doctrine

admin — Sat, 27 Mar 2010 14:25:42 +0000

Kurt Nimmo Infowars.com March 27, 2010 Ed Schultz, one of the more bombastic “liberals” at MSNBC, has called for “rightwing” talk radio to be shut down. Schultz is outraged that Rush Limbaugh has called for opposition to Obama and the Democrat theft of one sixth of the economy. Ed thinks it would be ducks if the IRS and government thugs toting brand spanking new sniper rifles rounded people up for their refusal to follow Obama’s mandate that everybody in the country must give their hard-earned money to insurance companies. Because Rush and the Republicans have not paid fealty to Lord Obama and the corporate whore Democrats who have trashed the Constitution, Ed wants to bring back the Fairness Doctrine. He would like to see Rush Limbaugh forced off the air. Ed dreams of his paltry radio show replacing Rush’s on the airwaves. In the video above, Ed reveals what a reprehensible collectivist he is. He is outraged that the Republicans stand in opposition to the monstrosity that is Obamacare. Like a garden variety Stalinist, Schultz believes it is treason to oppose the dictates of the communist party, actually the bankster party. Everybody must support the Leader or face persecution by the state. Such attitudes ultimately result in almost unimaginable mass murder. Mao killed 40 million, Hitler 30 million, and Stalin around 20 million. Some historians put these numbers even higher . Mao and Stalin killed most their victims because they dared resist the state. Hitler did too, but a lot of his victims were attributed to racist beliefs inspired by eugenicists like Rockefeller . Hitler, Mao, and Stalin — these were collectivists who believed in the primacy of the state over the individual. Ed Schultz also believes in the primacy of the state and wants to shut down anybody who opposes its criminal mandates. Such mentality eventually terminates in killing fields. Ed says there is a culture war going on in America. Mao had his own cultural war. He called it the Cultural Revolution. It began when Mao and his lackey Jiang Qing went after the intellectuals. Mao sent his Red Guards around China to intimidate, imprison, beat, and kill those who did not live up to his communist utopian vision. A campaign of fingering traitors swept the country. Between 30 and 70 million people were killed. If you think Ed is merely a blowhard, think again. As I write this, the Democrats — in league with America’s political police, the FBI and Homeland Security — are preparing to move against the Tea Party movement and all patriots who cherish the Constitution. Ed Schultz and his fellow apparatchiks in the corporate media are sharpening their knives.

The Death of American Populism

admin — Sun, 21 Mar 2010 22:05:32 +0000

Until recently, faint echoes remained, sadly silenced after Senator Bernie Sanders and sole House populist capitulated. Former Kucinich for president consultant, David Swanson, said “he gave in to the power of a false narrative, and that he ought to have said so….I think the corporate media has instilled in people the idea that presidents should make laws and the current president is trying to make a law that can reasonably be called ‘healthcare reform’ or at least ‘health insurance reform.’ ” I don’t excuse Kucinich flipping….I just want to find the right explanation for it.” The web site singlepayeraction.org, (“everybody in. nobody out.”) called the Democrats (like Republicans) “a corporate party, rotting from the core.” WRH permalink
