TIPs, munis & corporates: ETFs for income
2009-01-29 06:00:00 "The markets are littered with compelling buying opportunities that may be the best we see in a generation," says Keith Fitz-Gerald (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/ccount/click.php?id=2768). In The Money Map Report (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/ccount/click.php?id=2768), he looks at a trio of income ETFs -- one focused on Treasury inflation protected securities, one invested in muni bonds, and one that buys high yield corporates."We are holding three positions in our portfolio which we believe can be bought with new money. First, we suggest iShares Lehman TIPS Bond ETF (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/quote.htm?sym=) (NYSE: TIP (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/quote.htm?sym=tip)). The 10 year TIPS' yield is 2.23% versus 2.40% for 10 year Treasuries."This means that the so-called break even rate between the two is a measly 0.17% annually (2.40% - 2.23% = 0.17%). Spreads are normally more than 2% points."Where this matters is that if inflation averages just 3% a year for the n...

High Rental Rates - spoilsport for big corporates
2007-12-28 08:43:00 There are many factors which need to be considered when calculating how much rent to charge. Choosing the correct price means you get the most rent for your property ? (Residential / commercial) without scaring away potential tenants by overpricing. Location: The real estate advantage "location, location, location" applies equally to rental values as to selling values. In other words where your property is located well, to a large extent, determine how much you can realistically ask in rent. Its proximity to desirable venues such as Major bus terminals, Railway stations, national and international airport, universities/colleges or sporting/special events will impact on the demand and therefore the rental value. The real estate rental trends in the commercial sector are momentous as the key tendency among the investors is to rent a commercial space instead of buying since it facilitates low risk and less worry on maintenance. Commercial Rentals including corporate office spac...

Fropper incorporates a Videos section
2007-07-05 12:03:00 ‘A picture says a thousand words... a video says it all,’ says Fropper.com.In what they call as a Curtain Raiser launch – Fropper has uploaded some videos and is hoping that users would start using the video feature, which almost every Social Network offers. Ratings, comments, privacy settings etc. are to follow soon.Fropper, belonging to the People Group (Shaadi.com etc) – has never really appealed to me much. A site which was launched to primarily be a Dating site and which eventually caught the Social Networking bus kind of lost its value during the transition phase. They could have tried to remain the elite ‘Dating’ site but have now become just another also-ran in the Social Networking scenario. They’ve slipped to Rank 148 in India according to Alexa.Their latest move truly signifies their aim in competing with the likes of MingleBox, Yaari, BigAdda etc in the Social Networking scene. Though Anish Sapra (Manager – Online Marketing...

There are also trade blogs where someone posts a query like ‘does anyone know a product which can ...’ We post replies directly to such questions, revealing our corporate identity,” says Vikas Joshi of Harbinger Group, an e-learning solution provider. “About a third of our sales is an indirect result of the company blog,” says Pramod Harith, a marketing manager at MeritTrac Services.
