Merrill & MBIA Inside Scoop

“There is sort of connectivity on what’s going on at MBIA right now and now at Merrill Lynch that they are really actively thinking of selling this BlackRock stake…I think first order of business, from what I understand, inside Merrill, is to sell the Blackrock stake to raise the money”

Molson Coors & SAB Miller Create Joint Venture

“The headline of the merger of the two companies is a $500 million synergy target, and that’s really important in these days, not only to offset costs but to give us money to invest in our brands.”

Stop Trading: Biotech

“If it plays out the way it did in 1990, you’ve got a six-month move here. I really urge people to recognize that what’s happening here, is you’re seeing what groups people don’t want to see on their sheets – that’s obvious, it’s the banks – but you’re also seeing big bets being made for the third quarter, and this is the most visible bet, which is biotech.”
