Stocks With Pension Funds Lose Worth

Mon, 09 Feb 2009 14:16:00 GMT

Many companies offer pension funds to employees as a tool for attracting and retaining workers. Some of these pension funds are called "Defined Contribution" plans, since the employer and/or employee kick in a defined amount into an account every period, and the employee owns whatever is in that account when he leaves. The other type of pension fund is called a "Defined Benefit" plan. When it's the benefit that's fixed (or defined), rather than the [More...]

Buffet on the Move

Mon, 19 Nov 2007 16:04:29 GMT

Warren Buffet had himself quite a week last week; it was announced that he added holdings in banking and railways, gave advice on Alex Rodriguez on re-signing with the Yankees, giving A-Rod advice on making an end-run around his agent who gave him horrible advice (if A-Rod was really smart he would refuse to pay his agent’s fee as well) and a soon to be released study by two professors at the American University and UNLV found that buying what Buffet bought for the last three decades would have yielded you 24.6% on your money (or approximately twice the return of the S & P 500 over the same period) even accounting for the fact that Buffet would not legally have to report his earnings for up to four months after his purchase.Just a couple of comments on Buffet’s latest moves: Buffet’s...[More...]
