      Tough Love for Detroit Is Long Overdue
      I saw an interesting suggestion in one of the articles I've read, and i think it desevres further discussion.

      The government could actually bail out GM for less than $2 billion, once and for all.

      At GM's current stock price it is worth well under $2 billion. Congress should buy all of the common stock and just give it to the UAW for free. The company is now yours, lock, stock and barrel. Best of luck to you.

      Bond Wars Update: International and Junk
      If I'm not mistaken, Emerging Market bonds (like those held by PCY) are dollar-denominated and therefore not subject to currency fluctuation issues.

      10-Year TIPS: An Investor's Benchmark
      I decided to diversify a portion of my IRA into TIPS last year. I purchased the SPDR TIP ETF (symbol IPE) in early October 2007.

      There's an old saying that "I'd rather be lucky than smart". I guess I'll have to agree in this case. As you can see from the chart posted in this article TIPS have been a FANTASTIC investment over the past 12 months, especially considering that almost everything else I hold has been going down (except commodities).

      Kraft: A Tasty Long-Term Play - Barron's
      Paul:

      I own a little KFT and it has made me some money over the past couple of years.

      You need to fact-check your numbers. I believe that KFT sold for $36.50 a share back in June 2007, thats more than 10% above the high for the year that you quoted.

      I've bought in under $31 and sold out over $35 a couple of times, and collected dividends in the interim with little downside risk. I know this isn't the Buffet way, but it has worked for me.

      However, your incorrect figures mask the fact that this is a stock that can be traded profitably.
