THE DECLINING QUALITY OF DOLLAR MENUS
2008-06-10 15:50:00 Speaking of inflation, Michael Pento of Delta Global Advisors reported that McDonald’s, the fast-food giant, “stated it has no plans to tamper with its highly successful dollar menu, which accounts for 14% of the company’s sales.” Naturally, Junior Mogambo Rangers (JMR) everywhere laugh mirthlessly at the concept that McDonald’s, or anybody else, would sacrifice profit by not raising prices to offset higher costs. Mr. Pento is careful not to agree with me about motives or anything else I say, and writes instead that the problem of higher priced food is becoming universal, as “Indeed, the price of food ingredients has risen sharply…

Weak Dollar Blamed For Wii Fit Shortages In America
2008-06-04 01:32:00 The reason for Wii Fit shortages in the U.S. is that Nintendo can make more money selling the game abroad, according to oft-quoted analyst Micheal Pachter.Wii owners in the U.S. are getting plenty of exercise from Wii Fit -- primarily because just finding one requires a LOT of legwork.The latest creation by Shigeru Miyamoto has reportedly sold out in America in two weeks time, everywhere from Gamestop to Amazon, and there's little relief in sight.According to the LA Times, Nintendo shipped a paltry 500,000 copies of the game to North America, but saved the bulk of their Wii Fit units (2 million) for higher-paying UK gamers and their fancy European money. That's right -- the UK got more units because the Euro is worth more than the U.S. Dollar."The shortage demonstrates one consequence of the weak dollar," said analyst Michael Pachter, speaking to the Times. "We're seeing companies ignore their largest market simply because they can make a greater profit elsewhere."As Pachter clev...

That Pain You Feel at the Pump is From a Dollar Crisis, Not an Oil Crisis

In their search for explanations as to why oil has surged past $130 per barrel, Washington, Wall Street and the financial media are as clueless as cavemen after a freak summer snowstorm. Despite the head scratching, the blame game is nevertheless in full force.
