Madeco (MAD) ending it's ADR program and voluntarily delisting from the NYSE

June 30, 2009 – Comments (1) | RELATED TICKERS: MAD

As a low volume, relatively unknown ADR there isn't much info floating around about MAD when you look up it's quote on MSN money or Yahoo or whatever.  So since this is an ADR I've actually done some research into, I occassionaly go to the company's english home page and look up their press releases.  Apparently last week they put out this:  [more]

Lan Airlines is Invading my E-mail

June 30, 2009 – Comments (0) | RELATED TICKERS: LFL

So I got some travelocity spam in my hotmail account this morning, which by itself isn't suprising.  What is suprising is that it wasn't travel "deals" for one of the US cities I've flown to on previous occasions through travelocity.  Instead it was basically an advertisement for Chile and Lan Airlines (LFL), which is a company I've at times owned shares in and have liked as a good long term investment opportunity since 2005.  [more]

Dividends in CAPS

April 17, 2009 – Comments (3) | RELATED TICKERS: RIO

Why does CAPS attribute the dividend when it's announced?  Example I have an alert in my box today saying RIO (vale) has payed out a dividend of .22 per share and my start price has been adjusted.  The thing is RIO has not payed out a dividend of .22 per share.  The payout date is the seventh of May.  The record date isn't even until 20Apr (Monday), so why am I already getting a CAPS notice and a score adjustment?  If a player wants the score adjusment that comes with a dividend payment shouldn't they have to wait until at least the dividend record date to bank that gain?  I don't think players are really gaming the CAPS pre-dividend payment score adjusment by closing their picks after caps gives them the bonus but pre actual record date, but it bugs me... because it's inaccurate... n' stuff...  [more]

If the S+P closes above 870...

April 17, 2009 – Comments (3)

Doesn't that mean we get the all clear for it to at least kiss 900?  I'm not really a hard core technical analysis guy, but that's kind of how it looks to me.
