Bronte Capital: Poor Charlie's Counterattack
http://brontecapital.blogspot.com/2015/04/poor-charlies-counterattack.html
The sometimes eccentric views of John Hempton. Wednesday, April 1, 2015. Charlie Munger - at the last annual meeting of the Daily Journal Corporation - where Charlie is Chairman - said some pithy stuff about Valeant (and implicitly the CEO J Micheal Pearson). To quote:. Valeant is like ITT and Harold Geneen come back to life, only the guy is worse this time. Now ITT was not by any stretch the worst of the 1960-70s conglomerates. If Charlie had compared Valeant to (say) Ling-Temco-Vought. The Late Great A...

It says: "New draft pick wants to buy a luxury home. BOFI Federal Bank can do that". All i can think about our these cheesy subway nyc ads. Https:/ www.google.com/search? April 10, 2015 at 12:05 AM. At least the secondary market for luxury homes is fairly stable. April 10, 2015 at 10:01 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Get this blog by email.

Bronte Capital: February 2015
http://brontecapital.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
The sometimes eccentric views of John Hempton. Saturday, February 28, 2015. An interpretation of the Herbalife result. The Herbalife result had three elements - two bad, one good. The bad elements are. A) That volume fell - and quite sharply - minus 6 percent, and. B) There was an inventory build in the face of the volume fall. The shorts have played these elements up - and combined they meant that the cash flow was sequentially far less good. The good element (which the company played up) was. Ii) Requi...

imagining history: columbus day
http://imagininghistory.blogspot.com/2012/10/columbus-day.html
Monday, October 8, 2012. Arawak men and women, naked, tawny, and full of wonder, emerged from their villages onto the island's beaches and swam out to get a closer look at the strange boat. When Columbus and his sailors came ashore, carrying swords, speaking oddly, the Arawaks ran to greet them, brought them food, water, gifts. He later wrote of this in his log:. From chapter 1 of Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States (pg. 1). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Redlands, CA, United States.
