The Next Bill Gates

June 27, 2008
Georges Yared, GameChangers

This week, the torch was passed from one of the great GameChanging CEOs of the past to one of the great GameChanging CEOs of the future. As of today, Bill Gates ends his 32-year run as co-founder and chairman of Microsoft. He is leaving all day-to-day operations to focus on philanthropic and charitable good works through the foundation he and his wife started called – appropriately enough – the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

Stock Market Anticipation is Worth the Wait

June 24, 2008
Jamie Dlugosch, Investors Insights

There are so many great moments in advertising. One of my favorites of all time is the 1970s ad for Heinz Ketchup (HNZ). The simple image of a bottle reluctantly releasing its goods, resonates to this day. Just like the Heinz commercial, investors are waiting with anticipation with regard to the stock market.

Thankfully, the shares weren't beaten up too bad, taking a pretty modest 2% hit in the day's trading.

Jamie Dlugosch, Investors Insights

This Father's Day, Julia, my oldest, and I are going fishing. Having recently turned five, she is now old enough to be able to cast her own line. In thinking about fishing, I am struck by the similarities to investing. For the anglers, we throw out the line, and wait for a bite.

Chaos at Lehman Brothers

June 12, 2008
Louis Navellier, What's Working on Wall Street Now

Wall Street was stunned today by the chaos at Lehman Brothers (LEH). A few days ago, the bank reported an astounding loss of $2.8 billion. Then the firm said it was going to raise $6 billion in fresh capital. That wasn't enough to satisfy shareholders so today Lehman announced that it's replacing its COO and CFO. Fortunately, we spotted the troubles at Lehman early on with the aid of my stock-rating tool PortfolioGrader Pro, which rated LEH as a Sell. I hope you took our advice then and steered clear of Lehman, especially considering that the stock has lost half its value in the past month.
