The Green Crescent on Stock Horizons (Part 1)

It is as multi-racial as Manhattan in many senses, but Islam is much more than a private faith in this richly-endowed sub-tropical paradise. The country has many excellent success stories based on Islamic finance. Banking in the Middle East plans to use Sharia teachings, but Malaysia has more than a decade of such practices under its belt. This is a development for all stock market professionals to study, because Islamic banking is in the process of quickly establishing firm shares in the United States and the EU.

• Online Stock from the David/Goliath Fable (Part 1) - Editor, 9 January 2008 - No Comments yet

Electronic mail, search engines, and social networking, are some of the most dramatic effects the Internet has had on our recent and ongoing lives. One common characteristic of all these phenomena relates to the dramatic rise of unknown stocks. The World Wide Web is often seen in terms of the social and psychological sciences, but there are key implications for the stock market world as well. Electronic commerce is as rapid and dynamic an angle of the Internet as the media and consumer habit aspects. Stocks took years to grow in the brick and mortar age.

Online Stock from the David/Goliath Fable (Part 1)

Taxation has always been integral to financial planning; the Internet makes this part of our lives much easier as well. We or our tax preparers can file returns without paper, and answer questions from the IRS without ever visiting their offices in person.

We can join the IRS newswire service, visit their web site regularly, and even monitor deliberations in Congress on new tax legislation.

• BASF Stocks as a Case Study in Corporate Evolution (Part 1) - Editor, 7 January 2008 - No Comments yet

BASF’s national origins make its stocks worthy of special review. No other country has been as vigorous and pro-active in condemning its own modern history. BASF is a survivor of the Nazi World War II effort, and it has also thrived in the second half of the 20th century. It has matched the best corporations of this country in sustained stock dividends. Moreover, it is strongly poised to play a multifarious global role in the new Millennium. The chemical industry is not exactly recommended as a sunshine sector by any financial advisor, but BASF stock is an unusual commitment to useful and relevant technologies.

BASF Stocks as a Case Study in Corporate Evolution (Part 1)

Inorganic growth is a way of life at BASF. Again, it is a low profile process, but determined to generate stock value nevertheless.
