Long Term Investing In Pharmaceuticals
Posted by admin in Finance Friday, 25 May 2012 02:07 No Comments
Long Term Investing In Pharmaceuticals By ProfitableInvestingTips.com Long term investing in the pharmaceutical industry has generally led to excellent returns. The standard advice over the years has been to buy “big pharma” and watch your shares rise in value while you collect dividends. In the last twenty or more years the number of new technologies being applied to treatments has grown exponentially. A question for long term investing is whether investment in one of the larger companies is your best bet or if a little homework and investment timing will allow you to take part in the early growth of new companies associated with new technologies. Long Term “Buy and Hold” Investing in Pharmaceuticals The names may change with mergers and acquisitions but the basic nature of the game in big pharmaceuticals stays the same. A company develops a medicine and then holds the patent for a few years while it recoups its investment costs and takes a healthy profit. Typically the Mercks, Lillys, and Glaxos of the world will find a variation on a current medication and develop that variation in order to extend their patent rights and profitability. Because of competition from generic drug makers when a drug goes off patent the major pharmaceutical companies need to be active in research or acquisitions in order to have a stable of profitable drugs to sell. “Buy and hold” long term investing in pharmaceuticals presupposes that the big pharmaceutical company will keep replenishing …

The Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act (2012)
Posted by admin in Finance Thursday, 24 May 2012 22:25 2 Comments
thefilmarchive.org April 4, 2012 The Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act, commonly known as the STOCK Act, is a bill in the United States designed to combat insider trading. It was signed into law by President Barack Obama on April 4, 2012. Insider trading is the trading of a corporation’s stock or other securities (eg bonds or stock options) by individuals with potential access to non-public information about the company. In most countries, trading by corporate insiders such as officers, key employees, directors, and large shareholders may be legal, if this trading is done in a way that does not take advantage of non-public information. However, the term is frequently used to refer to a practice in which an insider or a related party trades based on material non-public information obtained during the performance of the insider’s duties at the corporation, or otherwise in breach of a fiduciary or other relationship of trust and confidence or where the non-public information was misappropriated from the company. In the United States and several other jurisdictions, trading conducted by corporate officers, key employees, directors, or significant shareholders (in the US, defined as beneficial owners of ten percent or more of the firm’s equity securities) must be reported to the regulator or publicly disclosed, usually within a few business days of the trade. Many investors follow the summaries of these insider trades in the hope that mimicking these trades will be …

Social Media Frenzy: Why Time Consuming Facebook, Twitter & Blogging Strategies May NOT Work for Your Business – Consider These Alternative Social Networking Initiatives
Posted by admin in Finance Thursday, 24 May 2012 12:27 No Comments
Product Description
How can businesses and individuals harness the power of social media without expending excessive time and effort? Author Steve Miller contends that in many, or most situations, the time consuming strategy of trying to build a social media following will waste much time and result in few sales. He supports this position with research and practical examples.
Instead of trying to build a following, most would do better following principles such as:
“Go Where People Already Gather, Rather than Trying to Gather a Following Around Yourself”
“Get Others Talking about Your Products, Rather than Talking Directly to Others about Your Products.”
Miller gives examples and case studies from marketing his own books and content sites, recommending practical social media strategies that don’t require ongoing commitments or bothering people who don’t want your products.
This book will:
• Help you to narrow down which social media alternatives might work best for your products, in your industry, considering your strengths and interests.
• Give practical tips for implementing social media strategies that bring results.
• Keep you from wasting time and money on initiatives that probably won’t work.
• Challenge the way you think about social media.
• Give publicists and marketing professionals a checklist to go through with clients to narrow down which social media initiatives may work best for them in their industry.
• Use case studies, examples, and other research to make its case.
What department at a bank do you call to let them know about their property?
Posted by admin in Finance Thursday, 24 May 2012 12:04 2 Comments
An old house of ours is owned by a bank (two in fact) and we keep getting notices that the taxes are past due and the county is going to foreclose. All I know is the names of the banks (Bank of America and E-Trade). I don’t want to spend forever on the phone just to have them not care. Is there a specific number I should call?
