FYI | May 06 2011
By Rudi Filapek-Vandyck, Editor FNArena
I recently joined Twitter. Not because I am curious what this celebrity has to say about her kids, or to read that another one is waiting for a connecting flight, impatiently. Twitter allows me to follow news and commentary sources such as Dow Jones' Marketwatch, Bloomberg News and the Wall Street Journal. It assists me in keeping up with what is happening across the globe, while I am observing and analysing financial markets myself.
While I am on Twitter, reading a quote here and a news flash there, I offer my own succint insights and commentary. Those amongst you who have already discovered the virtues of a Twitter account can add my Tweets to their daily news via @filapek.
For those who have no intention to join Twitter, but would like to stay up to date, below are my Tweets from the week past:
– A new bull market? Investors should remember ultimately the value of equity depends on profits and right now the trend in Australia is down
– I will be presenting at the ASX Investment Hour in Sydney on May 17 – Stocks That Consistently Beat the Market http://bit.ly/kRKezr
– A quote to honour: “Business models are clearly going to have to adapt to a lower margin, lower growth environment.” ANZ Bank CEO Mike Smith
– Economic Data Softening + Tightening Asia + Extreme Optimism Equals Correction? You bet! USD weakness surge often late stage of rally
– 2010 Revisited? Feels like it, doesn't it? I have been recommending solid dividend growth stocks. Still looks like a very good approach
