Chinese Manufacturing. Profit Margin, What Profit Margin?
2011-11-29 15:48:00 A loyal reader just sent me an absolutely fascinating "case study" on a small Chinese manufacturing business. The case study is part of Emerald Emerging Market Case Studies, which dubs itself as providing a "library of teaching cases spotlighting the world's emerging economies." The case study on the Chinese business is called "The changing landscape for Chinese small business" and it highlights a company that started out making school uniforms for China's domestic market, and then shifted to making bags/purses/backpacks for export. I hate to say this because I am not even close to being an expert on Chinese manufacturing businesses, but in reading the case study, just about everything in it sounded "typical" to me. This bag company sounded like most of the Chinese manufacturers my firm's non-Chinese clients have sought to buy, have bought, or have bought product from. In particular, the company's lack of rigorous accounting and pricing and its unbelievably low profit margins, r...

Benito Santiago Misses Hall of Fame by Scant 435 Vote Margin
2011-01-06 06:08:00 Do latino moustaches not get as much attention as white people's moustaches? I guess we figured out why Rafael Palmeiro didn't get in. They (latinos) come into this nation with nothing in their pockets...dreams of making it big! 'Son, you can make it to the Hall of Fame if you try just hard enough!' Then...poof! 'I'm sorry, kid...but you're moustache doesn't measure up to the other great moustaches.' Next thing you know they're complimenting you on how you're a 'hard worker' and come from a 'close knit family' and how they admire your 'willingness to work hard for long hours and not complain'.

Gov. Quinn will win by a comfortable margin
2010-02-02 02:29:00 In what will be a big surprise to everyone who has been reading the MSM in the run-up to tomorrow's Democratic Gubernatorial Primary, Governor Pat Quinn will beat Comptroller Dan Hynes, winning tomorrow's election by a margin of four to eight points. The most significant factor in the win will be the African-American vote, which will stick with Quinn, contrary to the predictions based on Hynes' Harold Washington ad. Hynes' Washington ad highlighted Mayor Washington's firing of Quinn in 1987, with the statement that installing the undisciplined Quinn as the city's Revenue Director had been a big mistake. Hynes made the wrong bet in the African-American community Apparently, an even bigger mistake was Dan Hynes decision to rely on the Washington ad to persuade...

Drop Shipping - General Guide to Have a Great Income Margin
2009-07-01 15:51:00 Drop shipping as form of marketing, has lived for a long time. This system is successfully implemented in the U.S but is comparatively new to Europe and UK and other parts of the earth.The major difference between the traditional means of marketing and drop shipping is that with this method you do not have to purchase in bulk and stock your products in the hope of selling. As an alternative, the goods remain with the wholesalers or manufacturer, you don't actually purchase until you have sold, so, you know that you already have made a sale.This system of marketing works both offline and on, and this is a good news for the entrepreneur. You can factually start your business with very small capital. In addition, for those who have computers at home, you can start your business right from the comfort of your house without hassles.Drop shipping is quite simple. When you find your source, you just promote the products under your own trade name. If you are online, you can do this through...

Schwab (SCHW): Margin of safety
2008-11-07 06:00:00 "We are selectively buying financially sound stocks that and likely to beat profit expectations in coming months, while offering a high margin of safety," says Alexander Green (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/ccount/click.php?id=2532) .The contributing editor to the industry-leading The Oxford Club (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/ccount/click.php?id=2532) explains, "One such stock is Charles Schwab (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/quote.htm?sym=schw) (NASDAQ: SCHW (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/quote.htm?sym=schw)), which, of course, is the nation's largest discount broker.""Schwab isn't your typical Wall Street firm.

Nightly Ramble:Election Polls Now Within Margin of Error; Obama’s Spe
2008-10-29 21:03:00 Welcome dear reader to the most intense nightly read on the ’sphere.. The Nightly Ramble. Less than a week away from the election and Obama is still losing ground. The trend has continued over the last few weeks to the point now where both Rasumussenand Gallup are both reporting numbers within the margin of error. If the trend contunes through next week, and I see no reason it shouldn’t, we may well find out if those veiled threats from the Democrats about race riots will come true. Bottom line is for all the predictions that have been ourportion on the newswires, nobody has a freakin’ clue what’s going to happen… but I’m fairly sure it’s not going to be nearly as much a liberal success the Democrats have been making it out to be. I note with interest thatone of Obama’s speech writers has switched sides. Of course the Dinosaur media hasn’t noted it. They dare not. Imagine if a speechwriter for John McCain had switched side...

Washington Post Poll Shows Likely Voters Backing Obama By Wide Margin
2008-09-24 15:00:00 As I've written in the recent past, when likely voters tend to be Republican. What does it say when the majority tilt toward the Democratic Candidate? Well that's what's happening in today's Washington Post poll. See below: Turmoil in the financial industry and growing pessimism about the economy have altered the shape of the presidential race, giving Democratic nominee Barack Obama the first clear lead of the general-election campaign over Republican John McCain, according to the latest Washington Post-ABC News national poll. Just 9 percent of those surveyed rated the economy as good or excellent, the first time that number has been in single digits since the days just before the 1992 election. Just 14 percent said the country is heading in the right direction, equaling the record low on that question in polls dating back to 1973. More voters trust Obama to deal with the economy, and he currently has a big edge as the candidate who is more in tune with the economic pr...

CNN's Idea Of "Wide Margin"

Margin of Safety Investing Strategy
2008-04-25 13:55:00 Margin of Safety is one of the most trusted investing strategies, made popular by highly successful investors like Warren Buffet. The term ? margin of safety ? was coined by the father of value investing, Benjamin Graham, in 1934. The basic idea of this strategy is to buy low and sell high.Every stock has an intrinsic value or true work. Any up or down price deviation from this intrinsic value is just deviations, and the stock price ultimately reaches its intrinsic value. Investors can assign a margin of safety with respect to the predicted intrinsic value of the stocks, usually the margin of safety 30 or 40% of the intrinsic value ?more the percentage more the chance of profit and low the risk. Investors can buy stocks when they fall below margin of safety and sell them when they move above their intrinsic value.Margin of safety investing strategy minimizes the downside risk as it offers a margin rather than a fixed price. But the prediction of intrinsic value is the most difficult...

Buying on margin to make huge gains
2008-03-23 21:24:00 Buying on margin can be a very effective way to leverage your money in the stock market. Let me ask you something. If you wanted to make $100 in the stock, would it be easier to make $100 from $500 or $1000? $1000 of course. If you make $100 from $500 that is a 20% increase. That may be a little hard to pull off in 1 month. But if you make $100 from $1000 that is only a 10% increase in a month. Now I'm sure you all realize that the more money you have in the market the more you can pull out. So let me give you an example on how margin does just that. Tom wants to buy stock ABC. It is a good stock that he believes will go up. The stock is currently trading at $85. He buys 100 shares of ABC. 2 years go by and ABC is trading at $170. Tom is excited and sells his stock. This gives him a 100% increase in 2 years. In this example Tom made a good profit of his investment. But there is a way in which Tom could have made even more money. What is it? It involves borrowing money. If Tom not...
NV 790i pricing leaves plenty of margin - The INQUIRER
2008-03-22 15:16:00 NV 790i pricing leaves plenty of margin - The INQUIRER: "ONE OF THE things that does not get out all that often is OEM pricing. With the recent launch of the NV 790i board, the high-end of the market went from $250 to $350. Where did that money go?Well, OEMs tell us that the money basically went into NV's bottom line. The cost to the OEMs on the 790i chipset is $110, a huge premium over the older chipsets. For comparison Intel, a company that never prices low, charges $70 for its X48.A good rule of thumb is that supplier cost ends up translating into about double the price they pay by the time you hand over your credit card. If mobo maker X adds a $5 heatsink to board Y, the price you pay for Y ends up being $10 more.Given this, the $40+ price gouge for the 790i will end up ramping board prices by $80, or most of the $100 increase. If you look at the functional differences between the X48 and 790i, there is precious little to justify the more than 50 per cent price increase, especi...

Banks Face 'Systemic Margin Call', $325 billion Hit
2008-03-09 20:28:00 Banks face "systemic margin call," $325 billion hit by Reuters - snip:NEW YORK (Reuters) - Wall Street banks are facing a "systemic margin call" that may deplete banks of $325 billion of capital due to deteriorating subprime U.S. mortgages, JPMorgan Chase & Co, said in a report late on Friday.JPMorgan, which sent a default notice to Thornburg Mortgage Inc. (TMA.N: Quote, Profile, Research) after the lender missed a $28 million margin call, said more default notices and margin calls were likely. The Carlyle Group's mortgage fund also failed to meet $37 million in margin calls this week."A systemic credit crunch is underway, driven primarily by bank writedowns for subprime mortgages," according to the report co-authored by analyst Christopher Flanagan. "We would characterize this situation as a systemic margin call." The credit crisis that began about a year ago will likely intensify after Friday's weak February U.S. employment report "that most definitely signals recession," JP...
Ohio goes to Clinton - only thing left is the margin
2008-03-05 05:11:00 Picking up where Indy left off... Even though I expected her to do well, I think this turning out to be a slightly better night than I expected for Clinton. The Ohio win looks to be significant, and she seems to be pulling away a bit in Texas. Whether she can parlay this into a big delegate win tonight will be the ultimate question. While the rest of the political world seems to act like the race is not 85% over, the reality is that this is ultimately a delegate contest in which Clinton is significantly behind. No argument about late momentum or having a moral claim to the nomination can trump the count when the delegates vote at the convention. 10:09 CST Texas 39% reporting - Clinton 50% Obama 49% (13K lead) Ohio 63% reporting - Clinton 57% Obama 41% (206K lead) 10:43 CST Texas 54% reporting - Clinton 50% Obama 48% (47K lead) Ohio 72% reporting - Clinton 56% Obama 42% (223K lead) Delegates from tonight - Clinton 92 Obama 72 11:09 CST Texas 64% reporting - Clinton 50% Ob...
