    In Focus: Disney +

    Thanks for checking out this week's In Focus, our look into a company, companies, or markets that made Wall Street's news cycle. This week we bring Disney in focus. On Thursday evening Disney (DIS) provided long awaited details about it's streaming service Disney Plus, and I'll say that it impressed me. I've discussed Netflix (NFLX) and the streaming wars twice before, and I've been critical of Disney both times, expressing my belief that Disney wouldn't have the goods to mak

When Boring is Bad I like boring companies and boring investments. Boring companies have smart but boring executives who boringly work hard and increase their companies value at a boring pace.

In my youth there was one main battle for your television, cable or no cable. If you could afford it you had cable and if you couldn't afford it you didn't. Fast forward to the cord-cutting phenomenon, which isn't a phenomenon to me, cable is f*cking expensive. But now viewers have a

    This week we have oil prices in focus. Oil prices have been in a nose dive for the past two weeks, and this past week oil has fallen into bear market territory. While the stock markets (The Dow, S&P, and NASDAQ) have been bouncing back from their October declines, oil continues it's October slide. The price for dinosaur juice could close out 2018 well below it's highs after having a nice bull run for most of the year. It's All About Supply and More Supply Just as Future has "

Be greedy when others are fearful.” - Warren Buffett As we push through earnings season Wall Street analyst have declared falling skies on many of good companies, which has caused investors to sell quickly and stock prices to fall briskly.

    In Focus: The Stock Market Crash 2018

    Now Entering Correction Wall Street defines a correction as a market being down 10% from its highs. By that definition the NASDAQ is there, and the S&P 500 and Dow Industrial Average are not to far behind. The panic on Wall Street and Main Street is real, and it should be. There are a lot of global issues that could drive the markets down further as well as technical indicators that favor the bears over the bulls.

    Investing in Apple or Buying an iPhone XS

    Almost a year ago after Apple introduced the iPhone X and its $1,000 price tag we looked at an alternative for the money. Instead of buying the new iPhone, which many of us are guilty of, what if we invested in Apple instead? We discovered at the release of the iPhone 5S Apple's stock traded for $68.29 per share (price adjusted for splits). At the pre-order date for the iPhone X, Apple's stock traded for $163.05 per share. That's a gain of130% from iPhone 5S to iPhone X. Sinc

    The Hustler’s Spirit: Why Musicians Make Great Investors.

    When we think of great entrepreneurs we think of a young guy or girl turning nothing into something. The Mark Zuckerburgs, Elon Musks, Evan Spiegels, and Jack Dorseys of the world are usually who comes to mind when we think of successful entrepreneurs. However we never think of musicians. There may be no other group of people in the world better at turning nothing into something than a professional musician. Almost out of thin air comes a chord, then a bar, then a verse and a

    Facebook's Stock: A Classic Wall Street Overreaction

    Plus 42%! In typical Wall Street fashion they've immediately overreacted to the bad (same story just reiterated) and hit the sell button on their Facebook stock, causing a massive drop in the stock price. Wall Street has it wrong and is overreacting to news we - you, me, and Wall Street - already knew. Facebook's revenue for Q2 2018 increased by 42% from Q2 2017. In most any other case this would be cause to celebrate. Not Wall Street, not in 2018. Wall Street has instead dec
