22 Jul 10:23am
Goldman’s president sold approximately 30k shares on July 16 and 17 and netted $5 million.  Goldman has been a very profitable i-bank for quite some time, and it hasn’t been hit nearly as hard as many of the other banks.  That being said, at a time when the industry (including Goldman) contributed to the subprime mess, which was spiraled into the economic quagmire that exists today, it is, in my opinion, unconscionable that a high ranking officer of any investment bank gets re...

20 Jul 10:46am
Barron’s Analyst DImitra Defotis Recommended Brown’s Shoe in the 7/21 issue: a. LIKE SENSIBLE SHOES, BROWN SHOE LACKS GLAMOUR but compensates in other ways. a. Shares of the footwear wholesaler and operator of the Famous Footwear retail chain have been trampled in the past year amid fears of a consumer-led recession, falling 41% to a recent 14.93. b. boasts a healthy balance sheet and a 1.88% dividend yield, a rarity among footwear companies.
