Ben Bernanke is now 'just' an economist working at the Brookings Institute. You write as though he still makes government policy. What do you know that we don't? (about that, I mean)
This is quite interesting. At the same time, this data has been around a while and seems to have been chewed over pretty thoroughly. What is new here? I'm not being critical, I'm wondering what subtleties I am missing.
Hi Rodney, you say "Many interest rate sensitive investments have fallen dramatically over the past six months as investors have worried about higher rates. That means now could be a very good time to go bargain hunting in that sector." WHAT sector?
My guess would be that if you are afraid of outliving your savings, and aren't in the bracket to worry about trust funds and charities, you don't belong in annuities in the first place. Or at least that's my interpretation.
Fox still got less than 5% of the advertising revenue that ESPN got for the men's world cup, but maybe these numbers will change that for the next time round. It's a shame too that the winning women's team earns less than the first-round losers do when the men play.
Love it all, Roger, but #25 makes me wonder - what does drinking soda have to do with dogs? Am I supposed to save my soda money to buy the dog? Or did you decide to combine two items in one?
Hi Vivian, I'm confused about Galapagos. I'm not sure what you mean by now listed as GLPGF-Q. Since mid-may it has been listed on the Nasdaq as GLPG, and it already traded on Brussels and Amsterdam as GLPG. I think it was GLPGF on the otc before it listed on the Nasdaq. Anyway, I appreciate you bringing this interesting company to my attention, but would like to know where you think is the best place to buy it.
