 Although the stock market might have a downhill trend, analysts remain prospective over a couple of stocks in the stock markets. Here are some of the viable investments: MasterCard: Speculators are forecasting 2008’s EPS of $8.90. Although their shares were somehow affected by the ailing economy, revenue rose 24%, reflecting a 12% growth in purchase volume and a 13% increase in transactions. Viacom: Analysts sees growing potential for this movie producer with past success in movies such as Transformers, Iron Man, Indiana Jones 4 and Panda. EPS is forecasted to be $0.55 to $0.65. Yahoo: After Yahoo’s failed bid to become Microsoft’s partners, analysts are pretty comfortable with their current business structure and forecast that their revenue might increase slightly after they have restructured their online advertising campaigns.

 Following the recent slide in the bear market, Sanyo has reported of a huge profit dip of 67%. Statistics have shown that the profit dip is approximately a third of what they made in the past year. Net profit for the July-September period slumped 67 percent to 4.4 billion yen ($44 million) from 13.4 billion. However, analysts have projected better prospects for 2009 though as the world economy might just head to greener pastures. |

 It’s either Obama or McCain who will be in the White House tonight. I on the other hand have 100% support for Obama – let’s have him as President! At least he has the lower and mid class people on mind, rather than thinking which vacation resort he wants to visit for holiday. The US market took a serious beating over the past couple of months. There could be several factors which have contributed to the financial turmoil: 1. Money being spent carelessly in the Iraq and Afghanistan war 2. Lawmakers were ignorant of the people’s need for the past year Vote Obama for change. |

 The 2008 US Election has full of promises made by politicians, namely Obama and McCain, with the hope of bringing change to the public. Under the Bush administration, the Iraq war has already cost tax payer’s money with over a trillion dollars. And not to mention the recently passed bill devised also by the Bush administration of having a $700 million financial bailout plan to bail them out from the economic crisis. I believe perhaps President Bush might just be the biggest spending US President in history – what more could happen if McCain was to be elected as the next President? Waging war on countries that does not comply to US foreign policies isn’t the answer… Let’s hope that Obama does bring change to the country. |
