Thu, 15 Oct 2009 16:17:47 GMT

The Consumer Price Index, or CPI rose 0.2% in September, down from a 0.4% increase in August and down 1.3% from a year ago. If food and energy prices are stripped out to get to core inflation, prices also rose 0.2%, up from 0.1% in August. Core inflation is up 1.5% from a year ago.

Biggest Declines Among S&P

Tue, 11 Aug 2009 21:05:02 GMT

The following is a list of the S&P 500 firms where the analysts have been cutting their expectations for the current fiscal year the most over the last month. Most likely these firms reported disappointing earnings or gave negative guidance on their conference calls. Historically, you have not wanted to be invested in companies where the analysts who follow them most closely see the earnings prospects diminishing. Also, estimates in motion tend to remain in motion. The first bit of bad news is rarely the last (the cockroach theory). This means that the current expectations, even though down from last month, are probably still to high for these firms. To weed out anomalies, only those firms that are currently expected to earn more than $0.50 in 2009 are included and only those firms where there are a minimum of three estimates in the system. If you have these stocks in your portfolio, you might want to reconsider[More...]

54 Stocks Returning 15%+ in January

Sun, 01 Feb 2009 18:18:00 GMT

As we exit the worst January ever, I thought it would be interesting to take a look at the best performers of the past month. Before we do, courtesy of Dshort.com this is a chart that has been passed around a lot in the investing community so I thought I'd share it. Two ways to read this - of the 4 great bear markets the past 100 years, 3 "ended" roughly where we are now... about a 50% loss in value from peak. That's the bullish view i.e. "can't get worse than this" and if we fall to S&P 750 (November lows) but never break through they will be correct. The bearish view is - the 4th bear market ended in a 90% drop, and if you plot the velocity of the decline, what happened to us in Sep - Nov caused us to be in lockstep with the worst of the 4. I'm not calling for a 90% drop[More...]

Whalley Awaiting New Store

Thu, 22 Oct 2009 12:07:00 GMT

Oct. 22--NEW HAVEN -- When will construction be complete and how many people will the new paint store on Whalley Avenue ultimately employ?
Ask Sherwin-Williams General Manager Brian Taylor: The target date for opening the Fortune 500 company's New Haven store is May or June 2010 at the latest, he said, "unless we run into a hiccup we didn't anticipate."
Neighborhood reception for the home decor business painted a sharp contrast to its hostile response to a Laundromat's efforts to move into the location at 454 Whalley Ave., between the new Walgreen's and Dunkin' Donuts near the intersection of Ella T. Grasso Boulevard.
