Small Is Essential
2007-05-22 16:39:00 At 37signals, a company with just eight employees whose Web-based collaboration software is used by thousands of small businesses, there isn’t time to sit around a conference room sipping latte and deconstructing memos. Come to think of it, there isn’t even a company conference room. There are just a couple of cubicles, loads of brainpower and three simple goals: make useful business software, make it easy to run, make money selling it. Repeat. Founder and president Jason Fried, 33, decided early on that he didn’t need to be in the shiny valley of Silicon to make cool software. Half his team works out of a plain-vanilla Chicago office that 37signals shares with a design studio. The other four are scattered: Portland, Ore.; Chesapeake, Va.; Caldwell, Idaho; and New York City. This tiny crew, only three of whom graduated from college, has built software that many in the world of Web 2.0 consider the best for small-business collaboration. One of its develop...

Trade Talks With China at a Juncture
2007-05-22 16:36:00 By STEVEN R. WEISMAN WASHINGTON, May 21 — In recent weeks, the Bush administration has negotiated furiously with China to secure some eye-catching new agreements to unlock Chinese markets for American goods. China, in response, has told the United States that it plans new purchases of $30 billion — a shopping spree that dwarfs any China has gone on previously. Now, on the eve of the “strategic economic dialogue” between senior officials of the world’s fastest-growing and the world’s biggest economies, the question is whether these steps will satisfy a Congress irate over a trade deficit with China that soared to $232 billion last year. “Some people will look at this and say there is not enough progress,” Treasury Secretary Henry M. Paulson Jr. acknowledged in an interview Monday, referring to the dialogue he started last year. “The key question is, Do we have more progress than we would have had otherwise?” Mr. Paulson ...

China Investigates Contaminated Toothpaste
2007-05-22 16:35:00 By DAVID BARBOZA and WALT BOGDANICH DANYANG, China , May 21 — Chinese authorities are investigating whether two companies from this coastal region exported tainted toothpaste as more contaminated product, including some made for children, has turned up in Latin America. A team of government investigators arrived here Sunday afternoon and closed the factory of the Danyang City Success Household Chemical Company, a small building housing about 30 workers in a nearby village, according to villagers and one factory worker. The government also questioned the manager of another toothpaste maker, Goldcredit International Trading, which is in Wuxi, about an hour’s drive southeast of here. No tainted toothpaste has been found in the United States, but a spokesman for the Food and Drug Administration said yesterday that the agency would be taking “a hard look” at whether to issue an import alert.

Sluggish Start
2007-05-22 16:19:00 09:40 ET [BRIEFING.COM] Stocks open relatively flat as investors lack the overwhelming evidence needed to convincingly build on recent market gains with so many indices near historic highs also raising valuation concerns. Another day of no scheduled economic data leaves investors placing added emphasis on corporate news and, not surprising, the market is welcoming more M&A activity. Kirk Kerkorian’s Tracinda Corp. disclosed last night it wants to buy MGM Mirage’s (MGM 79.51 +16.56) Bellagio and CityCenter properties. Regrettably for the bulls, the MGM headline is essentially all there is in the way of market-moving news, and it’s not having much of an impact outside of the Casinos & Gaming space (+0.9%). MGM is up 26% while the potential of more industry consolidation sparks a rally in competitors like Las Vegas Sands (LVS 79.60 +3.69), Wynn Resorts (WYNN 99.25 +5.06), and Boyd Gaming (BYD 51.00 +3.96).

S&P Hits Record, But Can’t Hold
2007-05-22 06:18:00 16:20 ET [BRIEFING.COM] After seven long years, which included a 2 1/2-year period from March 2000 to October 2002 that saw nearly 50% of the broader market’s value evaporate, the S&P 500 finally eclipsed its record closing high intraday. Unfortunately for the bulls, a growing sense that stocks are overbought at current levels resurfaced late in the day in the form of a sell program to take most of the steam out of what was initially shaping up to be a momentous day for equities. Stocks opened with little fanfare but inched their way higher for most of the session as investors embraced another round of healthy M&A activity. The biggest news came from Alltel (AT 69.58 +4.37), which agreed to be taken private for $27.5 bln. The acquisition played into our Overweight rating on the Telecom sector. General Electric (GE 37.10 +0.14), meanwhile, confirmed the sale of its plastics division for $11.6 bln. However, speculation surrounding GE’s divestiture that surfac...

Is China really a bubble?
