Discriminatory Business Support and Stock Management in the Public Interest


Most stock market players would like to forget October 2008. The month has certainly ended on a sad note for me. I deeply regret the news I found at the following link:


Though energy from arable land is a matter of some debate, Brazil is dynamic proof of the benefits of bio-fuels.

The NYSE: VSE symbol is not as prominent as some of the most infamous ones from Wall Street, but VeraSun Energy is a truly spectacular company. The national and world benefits of energy security from the land cannot be over-stated. The Bush Presidency will be remembered in bipartisan manner for bending over backwards to bail-out prominent banks. It is a sad commentary of our times that a company such as VeraSun Energy has had to fend for itself when in distress.

There is no merit in idle speculation. Each of us can support stocks that represent worthwhile activities. We can also use our democratic rights to support corporations that represent our economic interests. Please help to bail-out VeraSun Energy. This company is one of a rare breed that helps us move away from exclusive and crippling dependencies on crude oil.

I have no financial interests in VeraSun Energy.

Dubai Dynasty Lessons for the Business Management and Stock Exchange Worlds


Dubai is part of the Middle East, but stands apart from the rest of the region. The Dubai Dynasty has been in power for over 150 years. However, all accounts of the city-state and its surroundings are astounding in their celebrations of modernity.

The Dubai Financial Center is one of the most dynamic stock exchanges in the world. It is far from being the oldest, but the business culture of the Dubai Dynasty is an indelible part of history. How does the Dubai Dynasty manage such a becoming blend of the old and the new? I found an answer from oceans away. Here is a link to the secret of the business success of the Dubai Dynasty:


The Dubai Dynasty is resolute in its practice of Islam. However, its approach to business is entirely secular. Islamic banking is very much in evidence throughout the sandy lands governed by the Dubai Dynasty. Yet there is no facet of cutting-edge business management technology that is not diligently followed in the governance of the Dubai Dynasty.

You can choose between a history of the Dubai Dynasty and the hallowed portals of the Harvard Business School. Your conclusions about the role of culture in managing business and picking stocks will be the same whichever route you take.

The Interactive Marketing Route to Business Recovery and Stock Price Management


Wall Street Main Street trade-offs are popular pivots of present public pre-occupations. That is why not everyone will celebrate the new trend in lofty financial circles reported below:
 

There are rays of sunshine between the dark clouds  of discriminatory Washington largess for erring banks. Certainly flocks of folk threatened with foreclosures will welcome opportunities to remedy their finances. There is no word about rewards for citizens who have met loan deadlines, but there is evidence that the era of rapacious consumer banking is halted if not stopped for all time.

A business crisis makes most people inward-looking. It is natural to attend to the wolf at your door before trying to protect others. However, professionally-run enterprises will put pressing customer needs first. That is why I commend administrative pressures and executive actions to strengthen loan counseling procedures by discredited financial institutions. It makes sound business sense to look after the welfare of your customers. It is a durable if subtle axis on which to pick stocks for investment during the coming week.  I predict improved times for the banks referred to in the link provided in this post. You can also make picks from other sectors and industries on the basis of Interactive Marketing improvements by corporations in distress.
