Briefing:
UBS adds GE to their Short Term Sell rating and cuts their tgt to $12 from $18 saying although they believe GE is fairly valued on a 12-month basis, they believe there is additional downside risk in the near-term. The firm says if their ests are correct, they believe that GE's ‘AAA' rating is at risk, and that GE might have to consider either cutting its dividend or raising additional capital. They also believe that GE's commitment to its dividend could result in underinvestment in its industrial businesses. The firm says despite a sharp drop in the stock's price they expect declining consensus ests, coupled with an intensification of the discussion about the dividend and credit rating, to drive the stock lower over the next few months.

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the future, or not to anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.
-- Buddha
The inauguration of Barack Obama made Tuesday a truly historic day, but it was the share price destruction of banks and financial institutions that may have a more immediate impact. Many banks are so troubled now, particularly in England, that nationalization is almost inevitable.
We are seeing something completely unprecedented in the financial institutions, and the government -- even with a new administration -- is so far behind the curve in dealing with the issues that we can have no confidence about how events will play out.
The only sensible way to deal with this crisis is to simply stay out of the way. Unfortunately, that is seldom the advice you will hear from Wall Street. The traditional folks will almost always encourage you to jump in and anticipate some change in conditions. They have been doing just that for over a year now, and there is no reason for them to change at this point. In fact, the worse things become, the more adamant they will become that a positive change is coming soon.
The great thing about being an individual investor is that you have the flexibility to go to very high levels of cash. You need not dwell on the past or try to anticipate the future. You can simple stand aside and contemplate what is going on. There is no need for you to be holding lots of positions like traditional money managers.
While it certainly is worrisome to see what is happening to our banking system and our economy, we don't have to put our capital into the middle of it. That is really a very simplistic statement, but so many investors just don't seem to understand that. They hold on to the belief that investing always means holding on to positions. It has been beaten into them by so investing professionals and the business media. Of course, at a time like this, they are going to feel some tremendous stress when the uncertainties are so great.
If you can throw off the shackles of conventional investment thought, a market as bad as this one can actually be quite liberating. If you are sitting here with little exposure, you can feel secure that eventually better opportunities will come. You need not worry about that right now. Just let today play out and the news evolve as it will.
The one thing we know for certain about the market is that it will play out in cycles. If we stay out of the way when it is bad and protect our capital, we can quickly capture gains when it's better. We are obviously in a bad cycle right now and we should embrace that fact. At this moment, you don't have to worry about being left out of the good times that will eventually come. All you have to do is worry about making sure you deal with today in a way that best protects you.
I wish I could offer something more inspirational, but there are already too many folks looking for reasons to use hope to make bad decisions. Hope and optimism are good things in many situations, but not when they push you to be passive and ignore the steps you should take now.
After the ugly action yesterday, we have a market that is oversold enough for some sort of bounce, but we also have badly broken technical conditions, shaken confidence and no clarity in the financial sector. It certainly is negative, but these aren't conditions that should have us thinking that it's so bad that we can't go lower. Stay very cautious.

Pankade natsionaliseerimise teemal - Ladenburg usub, et see ei saa olla reaalne tulemus, kuna vastasel korral võtaks USA riik endale lihtsalt liigselt kohustusi:
The idea of banks being nationalized makes no sense. Ladenburg notes that in the current hysteria surrounding banking the idea has developed that the banks should be nationalized. The firm believes that this will never happen and that it makes no sense to speculate that it will occur. The firm notes the U.S. at last reading in Sep 2008 owed over $10 trln. The largest holder of this debt was the Social Security Administration and other govt pension funds. They held $4.2 trln of this debt. The remainder, or $5.8 trln, is held by the public. The firm notes that at the end of the Q3 there were 8,384 FDIC insured banking institutions in the U.S. They had $8.7 trln in deposits. Firm notes that if the govt nationalized the banks this debt would become govt debt and the government would be guaranteeing 100% of these deposits.

Eile IBM-ilt päris head tulemused, nii et suured tech-firmad siiski saavad hakkama praegustes majandustingimustes. Või on tegemist siis vaid teatud nimedega... Apple'i fenomen on ikkagi huvitav - bränd on end turule nii tugevalt söönud, et saavad jätkuvalt kõrgema hinnaga asju müüa ehk marginaale kõrgel hoida. Eks see edulugu võib praeguse tooteportfelli juures 2-3 aastat veel kesta, hiljem sõltub juba sellest, kuidas neil tootearendus edasi õnnestub. Aga praeguses majandustingimustes tõesti tugev tegija.
