Homelanddefensestocks.com Investor Podcast with Scott Sacknoff, Manager of the Benchmark SPADE® Defense Index

Commentary on defense sector performance during the market’s decline


POINT ROBERTS, Wash., DELTA, B.C. – November 6, 2008 – www.HomelandDefenseStocks.com, the leading global investor and industry portal for the Homeland Defense and security sector, presents an investor podcast with Scott Sacknoff, Manager of the SPADE® Defense Index (AMEX: DXS). Mr. Sacknoff comments on the sector performance during the market’s decline.

Mr. Sacknoff reports, "Although the fundamentals of the sector remain strong, highlighted by many of the firms reporting quarterly revenues and earnings consistent with forecasts and flush with cash on hand, defense, homeland security, and aerospace stocks have declined as the market retreated. For the year, the sector remains several percent below the performance of the S&P500 and has dropped by nearly half since its highs in October 2007. However, considering how undervalued the sector is at the moment, it wouldn't surprise me, now that the Boeing strike is over, that the sector sees a bounce upwards."

Can the Stock Market predict the next President?

3rd Party Interview with Renewable and Solar Energy Perspectives Contributor , J. Peter Lynch

November 3 ,2008

Q: Mr. Lynch. I read an article in a magazine that mentioned that the action of the stock market was a potential predictor of Presidential Elections. Considering that the election is a few days away, do you have any insight into this? Bryan W. New York
A: Bryan I am familiar with this and over the years I have read a number of books and articles talking about this very topic. As a result of your question, I did a little research and found a very interesting article in which the author back tested this thesis (from 1900 to 2004) and found that it predicted with an 89% degree of accuracy who will win the next Presidential election.
It appears that there is a strong correlation (89%) between the stock market’s performance in the two months immediately preceding the election and who will win the Presidency.
Basically if the Dow Jones Industrial Average LOSES ground in the two months prior to the election the incumbent party will lose the election.
If the Down Jones Industrial Average GAINS ground in the two months prior to the election the incumbent party will win the election.
What does this mean in terms of numbers and levels for the current Presidential Election?
If the Down Jones closes ABOVE 11,188.23 at the close on November 4th – McCain will be the next President.
If the Down Jones closes BELOW 11,188.23 at the close on November 4th – Obama will be the next President.
The Dow Jones closed at 9325.01 on Friday 10-31-2008
As a result, given that the Dow Jones would have to add 1,863.22 points, or 19.98%% over the next TWO (2) trading days it appears that the next President of the United States will be Senator Barrack Obama with an 89% degree of certainty based upon this historical correlation.
If this correlation holds true it is certainly a very positive development for the solar industry.

Shrewd Speculators Podcast, with Kevin Sylla - Market and Sector Commentary at Investorideas.com; Navigating an Unprecedented Market

Oil Services Stocks as well as Renewable Energy and Green Stocks Worth Taking a Look


POINT ROBERTS, WA – October 15, 2008, Investorideas.com, a leading global investor and industry research resource presents a Shrewd Speculators Investor Podcast with Kevin Sylla,
Managing Director and Principal at Versailles Capital Partners. The Podcast provides investor insight and ideas on how to trade and invest in an unprecedented time.

More than ever investors really need to pay attention and look for key trends and indicators. Mr. Sylla comments, “ A lot of attention needs to be made by investors on how they attack the market. The reason why I use the word attack – is that you have to be aggressive and prudent while navigating these markets. With that said, there is an incredible amount of buying opportunities, like I have never seen before. But I think when we are talking to investors they have to go back to basics when evaluating companies.”

He also advises, “You shouldn’t get married to any one idea- date them for a while.”

In closing he tells us he likes oil services stocks and renewable energy stocks.

Letter from the President

I get asked all the time to describe our website, Investorideas.com, in one or two lines. What we have tried to create is a meeting place for great ideas for investors, public companies and industry leaders in the industry sectors we cover.

If money is symbolic of the flow of energy- then what we are hoping to create is an exchange of energy and ideas that results in an exchange of money.

We are very active in the cleantech and water sectors and have gathered some of the best industry experts and writers to give you some great ideas.

We are proud of our columnists from Michael Brush and the Insiders Corner to J Peter Lynch and his solar commentary and Paulo Nery’s green investor series.

We have interviewed some of the best experts in the water sector, from Neil Berlant to Bill Brennan in our investing in water audio series.

In every sector we cover – from mining to oil and gas to renewable and homeland security we seek out some of the best experts to provide industry insight.

Our online conferences in mining, oil and gas, security and renewable energy are a great resource to hear from several experts all at once. Our flash media player creates a great audio /visual informative experience.

Our stock directories are growing daily and provide a great starting point for your research.

Our services for public companies to access global investors combine a program that is interactive and informative and really helps build the company brand in its sector as well as introducing it to new investors.

Our global business marketplace is a venue for business and investors to match investing criteria. We are excited to enable new business ideas thrive and investors gain from their risk and initiative.

Our Investorideas.com membership is a new program to give additional exclusive access to some of our great investor ideas.

We don’t make specific recommendations – we just give you tools to become an active participant in your own financial outcome!

Nothing is more exciting than the experience of a getting a great new idea!

… So run with it and thrive! If your first idea does not give you the outcome you desired… then try again. That is the key to success!

Quote of the day - from solar stocks expert at Investorideas - recent column-
"Remember, it is NOT how much money you make when the market goes up, but it is how much money you keep after the market has gone down. "
read the full column here :
http://www.investorideas.com/pl/news/100308a.asp

Excerpt -

There are three things that are important to understand regarding investing in the current renewable energy industry:

Just the Beginning of the Renewables Boom — This is "just the beginning" of the birth of the renewable energy industry. The renewable energy industry is at the same stage now as the automobile industry was in 1900. We are seeing the first few companies becoming public and we will see hundreds more over the next decades. It will be an exciting time for investors and there will be ample opportunity for investors to make money and also help the environment, which is a welcome change from the fossil-fuel dominated energy sector of today.
Highly Volatility — At this early stage of development there will be excessive volatility in this sector until it becomes a more mature industry. Investors must carefully select their entry points and be patient. This sector is NOT for the faint of heart. Investors have to be careful only to invest a portion of their portfolio, which they have designated for "higher risk" investments. These will be the stocks that you can make the most money on, but also the ones you could lose the most on. Risk and reward have always been intrinsically linked and this is no exception.
Pending Legislation Key to Short-Term Uncertainly — I expect that we will see some pending solar legislation pass in the congress before year end, perhaps even today, since it has been attached to the bailout bill. If this happens the legislative tide will raise ALL SOLAR STOCKS and well as the entire market. Where it goes from there and how far the stocks rebound is any ones guess. One thing for sure, investors will have to be nimble and be prepared to take some short term profits.
If it does NOT happen this year, there will be a further drop in solar stocks, until 2009, when I am relatively sure some form of legislation will be forthcoming. Once this occurs I think it will light a fire under solar stocks and they will make a strong run up in the beginning of the year. However, next year there will be problems in the solar industry, for example: excess silicon supply, margin compression and PE contraction (which we are currently seeing to a large degree). But in the shorter term, I see solar stocks making another run up as just another step in their eventual movement to a booming industry of the future.

In conclusion, it is important to remember to be patient and not to overreact to this crazy market with its incredible volatility and short term “panic” psychology. I have seen this type of panic many times in the past and it is “usually” seen at or near market bottoms.

There will be plenty of opportunities in the future for the patient, level-headed investor. You need to have your cash reserves ready when the time is right. As I have said a number of times in the past, the best way to make money is not to lose it!

Remember, it is NOT how much money you make when the market goes up, but it is how much money you keep after the market has gone down.

SIPC ISSUES STATEMENT ON LEHMAN BROTHERS INC.: NO LIQUIDATION PROCEEDING ANTICIPATED

WASHINGTON, D.C. – September 15, 2008 – The Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC), which maintains a special reserve fund authorized by Congress to help investors at failed brokerage firms, issued the following statement this morning in relation to reports about the bankruptcy filing of Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc.

SIPC President Stephen Harbeck said: “SIPC has not initiated a liquidation proceeding against the broker-dealer Lehman Brothers Inc. and we do not currently anticipate doing so. As of this morning, it appears that all customer cash, stocks and other securities are accounted for.

It is important to understand that the holdings of broker-dealer Lehman Brothers Inc., would not be directly impacted by a bankruptcy filing at the separate entity Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc.

Should the situation at Lehman Brothers Inc. change in some material way not now anticipated by SIPC and regulators, we will, of course, intervene as necessary to protect the cash and securities of customers. However, I want to underscore that such an action is considered unlikely at this time.

SIPC is working closely with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to monitor the situation at Lehman Brothers Inc.

The Securities Investor Protection Corporation remains vigilant and committed to our core mission: When a brokerage firm is closed due to bankruptcy or other financial difficulties and customer assets are missing, SIPC steps in as quickly as possible and, within certain limits, works to return customers' cash, stock and other securities. Without SIPC, investors at financially troubled brokerage firms might lose their securities or money forever or wait for years while their assets are tied up in court."


ABOUT SIPC

The Securities Investor Protection Corporation is the U.S. investor's first line of defense in the event a brokerage firm fails, owing customer cash and securities that are missing from customer accounts. SIPC either acts as trustee or works with an independent court-appointed trustee in a brokerage insolvency case to recover funds. The statute that created SIPC provides that customers of a failed brokerage firm receive all non-negotiable securities - such as stocks or bonds -- that are already registered in their names or in the process of being registered. At the same time, funds from the SIPC reserve are available to satisfy the remaining claims of each customer up to a maximum of $500,000. This figure includes a maximum of $100,000 on claims for cash. From the time Congress created it in 1970 through December 2006, SIPC has advanced $505 million in order to make possible the recovery of $15.7 billion in assets for an estimated 626,000 investors.

For more information about SIPC, see "The Investor's Guide to Brokerage Firm Liquidations" at http://www.sipc.org/pdf/SIPC_brochure_Investors_Guide_To_BD_Liquidations.pdf.

MEDIA CONTACT: Leslie Anderson, (703) 276-3265 or landerson@hastingsgroup.com. All investor inquiries of SIPC should be directed to asksipc@sipc.org or (202) 371-8300.

I just signed a petition asking the G8 take urgent action against extreme poverty, and I'm hoping that you'll join me.

Sign the petition now at: http://www.one.org/international/g8

There has been a lot of progress against extreme poverty in recent years, but, as recent headlines about the global food crisis and natural disasters like Cyclone Nargis in Burma will tell you, there is still much to be done.

When we unite with one voice and call upon our leaders to take action, we can and will solve these problems.
Dawn L. Van Zant - President

Warren Buffett Finances Candy Maker – Betting on Old School Eating Trends; Sugar as a Staple of North American Diets

InvestorIdeas.com Reports on Trends in Organic, Natural Foods – Are the Undercurrents there to Prove the Oracle Wrong Long Term?


POINT ROBERTS, Wash., Delta B.C., April 29, 2008 - http://www.investorideas.com/, a leading online global investor resource covering over 30 sectors including environmental and food and beverage, features a report on trends in organic, natural foods as Warren Buffett makes headlines financing Mars Inc. is purchase of confectioner Wm. Wrigley Jr. Co. (NYSE: WWY) for an estimated $23 billion in cash. With the growing trends of consumers going back to basic, healthy organic food, Investorideas.com poses is Warren finally wrong for the long term, or will the sugar addicts continue to consume Snickers and Skittles over an organic apple?

Warren Buffett, an admitted sweet tooth, buys what he knows and he knows sugar and candy. Berkshire Hathaway Inc. will purchase a $2.1 billion minority equity interest in the Wrigley subsidiary and offered $4.4 billion of subordinated debt to fund the purchase.

Investorideas.com founder Dawn Van Zant reports. “As a former life long sugar addict that thought candy was equivalent to happiness, I lived with the same foggy sugar brain and would have applauded this venture up until recently. Last year I woke up out of my sugar coma and found the benefits of organic food, so as much as I respect Mr. Buffett, I am hoping he is wrong with this one.”

Food prices and commodity prices are on the rise including sugar. Will the shift in food and eating run in parallel with energy and renewable energy? In the initial stages renewable energy is more expensive than oil but as oil reaches $120 a barrel and is predicted to possibly go to $200, will the same transformation take place in the food industry for the better good? We may be forced to live better, cleaner and healthier lives based on decisions forced by the wallet. As the shift takes place, the organic food industry will face short term challenges as overall food prices rise and consumers become price conscious.

Organic milk, one of the success stories within the organic food industry, was able to compete with a competitive edge and profit over traditional milk for years is now being hit with rising feed and fuel costs.

The direct relationship with food and fuel prices as well as the changing and disruptive trends will result in a power shift on all levels, with the consumer taking the brunt of the hit until the transition settles.

According to recent research by RedOrbit.com “One of the few certain and consistent trends for American grocers has been the growing popularity of organic food; in fact, from 1997 to 2006, sales of organic food have grown by nearly 80 percent to $17.7 billion.”

According to the Organic Trade Association (OTA), a membership-based business association for the organic industry in North America, the Canadian organic market is booming with annual growth above 20%.
