Dell's Non-Existent Turnaround Becomes Visible At Last

The Reasoned Sceptic (Free subscription) | 2 hours ago

My last two posts concerning Dell, here and here , detailed my belief that, despite the founder's return in January of 2007 as CEO, the company is still doomed. The nearby 5-year price chart of Dell, Hewlett Packard and the S&P500 Index confirms this. Dell's recent equity price rise is about the same as the index's, after having fallen much further since Michael Dell returned. Even since early...

You wouldn't believe how much effort goes into selling lager. One particular brand of lager in this case, the one that prides itself on being "reassuringly expensive". I won't mention it by name, but a link to the squandering parasites should suffice. I received an intriguing lager-related email last Tuesday. It didn't originate from the brewery, nor even from their advertising agency , but...

Dear Editor: Please do a story on the contributions Senator Max Baucus of Montana receives from lobbyists in the healthcare and other industries, so that your readers will know why he votes the way he does, putting profits before people.

I almost never blog about anything that's work related. For example, if you visit my blog page you'll see a "label cloud" with 360 posts on Economics, but I'm no economist. This post, written as a private citizen, is different. I'm going to write about something that I really do know quite well. It's a sufficiently obscure topic that there are probably only a handful of people who know it...
