Jerry Yang.......suite et fin.





In a memorandum sent to the company’s staff Monday evening, Mr. Yang, 40, said he would hold the post until the board names his successor, a process he said he would participate in. The Yahoo co-founder said he would then return to his previous job as “chief Yahoo,” a corporate strategy role, and would remain on the board.

goodbye and au revoir

as long as you remember me

6 More Outrageously Cheap Stocks

With all of the recent volatility in the market, what stocks are outrageously cheap?
I found one recently, and I got to thinking about the others out there when I read money manager Bill Miller's comment that "the market abounds with good value." Of course, Mr. Miller also wrote last August that stocks were the cheapest they'd been since 1991 ... and after a brief rebound, they've gone right on dropping. Mr. Miller's fund has suffered thanks to core holdings in some recently deceptively cheap stocks such as Eastman Kodak (NYSE: EK), Electronic Arts (Nasdaq: ERTS), and General Electric (NYSE: GE).


You generally won't find as much interest among small caps, which is one of the reasons why -- given the criteria above --Crocs (Nasdaq: CROX), Gymboree (Nasdaq: GYMB), and Cryptologic (Nasdaq: CRYP) look outrageously cheap.

À noël......pas de cadeaux pour les grands mais...




....beaucoup de cadeaux pour les petits!
J'ai lu quelque part que le Noël 2008 serais un des pires pour la vente au détail depuis 1982.
J'ai une réflexion là dessus.
Quand mes enfants était petits,
je veux dire d'âge pré-scolaire.....rien ne m'a empêché de les gâter à Noël.
Aujourd'hui à 16 et 13 ans il est plus facile de faire passer le mode "restrain"....

Les temps sont dures pour les deux anciennes "stars" Pacific Ethanol PEIX.nasdaq et Verasun energy VSE.nyse.
Le pétrole qui baisse et le prix du maïs qui demeure assez haut fait qu'il n'est plus payant de fabriquer l'éthanol.
Justement Verasun "is filing for Chapter 11"
