Obama and Global Economy

All set for election and Obama leading in all the opinion polls. His last night solo presentation on major TV prime time slot was great. His vision and articulative views are great, he is a clear next generation leader. But one thing he is failing on is Global Economy, he has shown protectionism from the start of this presidential campaign. I thought may be, i’m monomaniac with “One Human One World(OHOW)” concept, that’s why i disappointed with his protectionism and all others are agreed with his views. So i have decided to check with other’s pulse for this matter. As usual, i started my research with real person opinions, first target was my wife, as soon as i asked the question, she refuted immediately “what’s wrong with that, first their own country people and then others”. There is one more OHOW monomaniac like me across the country (California), we used to talk this kind of prescient matters a lot, i decided to call him, he also sounded like my wife, i felt like a thunder struck o

Unbeatable Titans

8 weeks completed since this football season started, as usual lot of interesting games and surprises. Titans came out as unbeatable team 7-0 so far, yesterday they beat Colts.   This team has all chances to win super bowl, they are fundamentally strong. It was great rejoinder to last 5 years continues domination of Colts.   Way to go Titans. But my favorite team for this season so far is Texans, what an offensive play by them. But they lost so many matches early, but last 3 games they are really good. Bears came back really good after the lost against Falcons.   Lions, Raiders, 49ers, and Rams are really wasting their fan’s money and time. Lions are playing like cats nowadays, may be bad economy really hurting them very bad. For a change, Dolphins started winning some games. 49ers fired their coach and again they promised to build a good team, the same they announced when they hired Nolan 4 years ago. Again NFL players started using steroid like substance, this time it was some we

TGIF-No-SGIF

“Thank god it’s Friday” is famous and happy phrase but not now, for bull investor it is “Save god it’s Friday” from bears.   All bear investors hibernating in first 4 days of week and collecting all information (I don’t know where are they storing information, but bull know source and why) and dumping stock like right, center and left on Friday. This Friday’s sell offs are very well coordinated, bears coordinated from all over world, it was happening very early in the morning. Most of the sell off are out of panic and with panic these bears loosing logic and thinking power, just take all news as literals and getting more panic. So for a smart bull it is good time to jump on, I don’t think so, this is tempting to jump in. Very low P/E ratio, major indexes lost almost 20% on average this month alone, all panic sellers are done with their selling (still they are out??), in other words bears are gone for permanent hibernating. All reliable technical indicators, fundamentals and theory, a

THE ADVENTURES OF LITERAL MAN!

Excellent Story from  http://www.storiesville.com/content/view/1557/65/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At one point in his life, Literal Man owned and ran a small 'fruit and veg' shop in a shopping mall. Like many other of his endeavours, this one was doomed to fail. One day a lady came into his shop. She was an older lady, about forty or fifty, who had a pleasant smile and seemed to be in the mood for conversation. Attempting to engage in small talk was one of Literal Man's weaknesses, for reasons that he never quite understood, yet nevertheless he tried his best to make the lady feel welcome in his shop. "I hope that you are having a good morning" he said as she walked towards him. She briefly looked confused at the unusual greeting. Not 'good morning'? Despite this she smiled and said; "The morning will be good once it's over, just kidding! I'm fine, How are you?" Liter

2008 Blog Action Day – Poverty

Poverty is a machination, man made and we are the only one can make it history. Most of the poverty because of prolong social suppression, civil wars and unstable dictatorship rules. There are many people wants to abolish poverty from world, there are lot of talks and thoughts. But I personally think that we don’t know how to resolve this issue, but we have the heart to do so. We think that there are many rich/celebrity people out there and government will do something to abolish poverty. But the rich/celebrity people and government can’t make the difference unless we act together to abolish poverty.   If the misery of the poor be caused not by the laws of nature, but by our institutions, great is our sin.  ~Charles Darwin    

What about us?

As usual today morning wake up, had a wonderful breakfast and browsed emails, news sites and started watching Longhorn Vs Sooners football game. Just after noon i asked my wife and kids about plans for lunch, she fired back, “what the hell you are thinking?” “Do you know what is going on outside? It seems that great depression is back, next 10 years it will be recession?”…”But you seems like nothing happened and enjoying and watching football, I don’t know how people are going to survive”….As a gourmand, i was really shocked because my lunch is getting delayed. She started worrying about overall market condition and i noticed since last week she was little upset and i tested with her peers also, everybody seems to me upset because of too much reading about market meltdown and Opera Winfrey talk shows. For me everything going as predicted and i am always following http://ibloggergeek.blogspot.com/2006/11/dont-enjoy-at-success-time.html Market was already dead and we are waiting for

Spring AOP Concepts

As a natural lover, i was not very enthusiast about spring framework, for me i think spring framework is a make-up or add-on JVM for natural Java language. As spring authors mentioned, spring is following Hollywood concept, where a small swimming pool can show like big ocean. But Spring is really good for ‘all in one’ style. Spring is becoming fastest growing framework than EJB, or .Net. The same is now start worrying Java community that SpringSource now mobilizing something towards pay per use model, here is latest spring dm server licensing terms, http://www.springsource.com/products/suite/dmserver/licensingfaq and top executive profile looks little chary that other than Rod (CEO) and Adrian (CTO) are not techies but extensive business experiences and venture capitalists. Any way it is worth to pay some share for this excellent framework if that happens. But any way more configurations and less coding is always good. I was ebullient with spring’s Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) fe

Harmony and Peace

On the occasion of the Mahatma Gandhi's birthday, Abdul Fakhri wrote a wonderful blog in Sastwingees about peace and harmony. As usual lot of discussion around the subject, here I’m trying to continue some, how Hindu ideology( RSS and it’s child organizations Vishwa Hindu Parishad , Bajrang Dal etc)try to corrupt people’s mind by creating negative perceptions about minorities. Christians and Muslims are organized religions, they have very strict rules about attending Sunday mass and Friday Jum’ah. But Hindu religion is not organized, so we are here to support you as an organized group, we are saviors. Reality: All religions are some how organized and Hindus are more organized than others, because Hindus do lot of rituals/puja at home, not at temple, due to timings and changing lifestyle. Hindu religion more towards to home and family based, so we don’t need a dedicated time at temple and organized. We have police force and human rights group to protect us. Our Police, Army and Pa

Bail out Cubs and Sox, time is running out

Bail out bill was successful at this time, 57 lawmakers changed their position within 3 days. It was great example of democracy where majority always win, if not first time, second time it will. Another miracle happened with in 3 days is, Wachovia is now hot bank, 2 of them fighting for it, just 3 days ago it was other sinking bank. Just 3 days, Wachovia value increased as much as 750%, and expansion minded Wells Fargo successfully crossed Mississippi river to conquer east coast(other than some small acquisitions). Actually Wells Fargo has 25% spring effect (infrastructure, technology) to absorb any sudden growth. So they made a bold acquisition bid to Wachovia, and they refused to take bail out money also. This is real Wild Wild West. Citi just started discussing about how to integrate Wachovia with them and confused with back and forth bail out bill, in mean time Wellsfargo announced it's actions to integrate with Wachovia and debt reduction plans. So the market is still alive an
