Why I'm Betting on Advanced Micro Devices - For Now
Surya Yalamanchili submits: I began this post thinking about my pathetic Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD) stock. I've come to learn that everyone in the world right now seems to hate AMD and the stock. Or at least this is true if you believe the stock market reflects public sentiment on the future of a firm. They're around the 52 week-low of $13 and were at roughly $40 a year ago. However I decided to post a far longer ramble on the two monopolies of the PC industry, their future, how this impacts PC's, and all of this impact on the stocks that I own. The Twin Monopolies As computer makers earned fractions of a few pennies on every dollar (at best) in systems sold, for years two companies have reaped massive profits from each sale. These two companies held the most noticeable monopolies in the PC business: Microsoft (MSFT) and Intel (INTC).
The Best No-Risk Investment
It's not sexy -- not by a long shot. It isn't the sort of thing that'll get you a lot of attention at cocktail parties. And don't expect to double your money by next Tuesday, either. But just one investment promises you that tomorrow, it'll be worth exactly what you paid for it, plus a tiny bit more. It's cash, and it belongs in your portfolio. Rock solid
The hardest thing about holding cash as an investment is that it's boring. Every day, you read about hot stocks rising and cold stocks crashing down to earth. Companies like Dendreon (Nasdaq: DNDN) and its newly recommended cancer drug can make you rich in a single day, while others such as New Century and its subprime plummet toward bankruptcy have cost investors everything they had. In contrast, cash doesn't take much thinking.

Stanford Business School Research Examines Linkage Between ROI and ...
STANFORD, Calif.-(Business Wire)-March 16, 2007 - For years, return on investment (ROI) and related financial accounting ratios have been widely used as key measures of business profitability. But what three accounting professors from the Stanford Graduate School of Business recently discovered was that, despite its widespread acceptance, the economic meaning of the ROI metric has only been vaguely understood. .
US Stock-Index Futures Are Little Changed; First Data Rises
April 2 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. stock-index futures were little changed as investors speculated a report on manufacturing may add to evidence that economic growth is slowing. ``The market is balancing on a knife's edge,'' said Boris Boehm, who helps oversee $7.2 billion at Nordinvest in Hamburg. The Institute for Supply Management's manufacturing index ``will be in focus today. In my view there is an increased likelihood that the U.S. economy will slow more than anticipated.'' First Data Corp. rose in Europe as Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. agreed to acquire the world's largest processor of credit- card payments in the second-biggest leveraged buyout so far this year. AT&T Inc. advanced after the largest U.S. phone company offered to buy a third of the holding company that controls Telecom Italia SpA.
