El Nino Will Continue To Send Coffee Percolating Up
10 years ago
So it's not so much about whether coffee prices are going up but whether the company will profit, and that you research--find companies that have it figured out and strategized the best. How do you find out how the companies are hedging - how much? And then you have to predict the weather trends too?

El Nino Will Continue To Send Coffee Percolating Up
10 years ago
Hi Chris, are you not assuming that coffee retailers will increase their prices higher than the prices increases for them, and that they trade with a positive correlation to the price of coffee. Do you have support for this assumption? Or am I missing something?

Unprecedented Apple Downgraded On Moral Grounds
10 years ago
"If I were an investor in his service I would have a HUGE problem..." Me: That's true for any influential analyst. Are you suggesting laws dictating what analyst's decisions may and may not be based on? Maybe the analyst could base his opinion on morals and then lie about it to the pass "analyst opinion appropriateness inspection." Seems completely unworkable. Good luck with it.

Unprecedented Apple Downgraded On Moral Grounds

I think it's pretty simple. He must have stated his method because that's what we're talking about. There's no obligation to be consistent, no obligation not to do a "first," and no obligation not to be one of a few analysts with a negative rating on AAPL - all irrelevant. Don't see why this is confusing. Doesn't seem irrational, nor a disservice. No one is forcing anyone to read or pay for his opinion. I really don't see any problem here.

Unprecedented Apple Downgraded On Moral Grounds

I doubt it will turn into a trend, but why not downgrade on moral grounds? The analyst has every right to base his ratings on whatever he or she wants. He can base it on astrology - I think I've seen that (and of course you have every right to read it or not.) It's not a question of morality at all, it's a question of the analyst's freedom to do what he/she wants with his/her ratings. If you don't like it, don't read that analyst,... or do a video expressing your conflict.
