A compounding of failures, SocGen, Rio, Yahoo: is this the source of the next leg up?

Right now it's the weight of money on the first month of the first quarter turn. The market is short and still waiting for a "retest." I'm waiting for a retest too. _________________ Today is the Tomorrow you worried about Yesterday! |

I read today that there has never been an open market purchase by Insiders. Now, when its dropping, this becomes a surpirse. _________________ Today is the Tomorrow you worried about Yesterday! |

| I am investing in Google with the belief that it's going to be the Microsoft for mobile phone (device) since I think it's a brilliant move in bringing up Android to form the biggest open-source community for mobile phone. |

I think so too. But right now it's just a liquidating momentum play as money rallies back to core investment themes. _________________ Today is the Tomorrow you worried about Yesterday! |

The outperformance in growth stocks continues. GOOG now up 17% in AH trading:
http://www.cnbc.com/id/24187170/site/14081545?__source=yahoo%7Cheadline%7Cquote%7Ctext%7C&par=yahoo
| Quote: | A word on all the cautionary market research that's been grabbing headlines in recent months, helping depress Google shares to multi-year lows and creating a hovering black cloud above this company and its prospects. Much of this chatter comes from market research firm comScore, which as I've detailed in earlier posts, has had to retract some of its data.
And its finding are routinely questioned by so many analysts on Wall Street; but because it's really the only game in town when it comes to measuring paid clicks and click-throughs, many investors consider its results when figuring out where Google is headed.
I'm not going to slam comScore. There is a slowdown in clicks and paid clicks, growing at 20 percent this past quarter, paced a little slower than some on the Street hoped to see. Not the fall-off-a-cliff drop in business; a slight slowing.
So, I will just offer up the facts: comScore is tracking what it says is a marked slowdown in Google's business. Google not only met expectations, or even slightly beat them, but absolutely crushed expectations. "Data" suggesting a slowdown, versus Google's own earnings report showing something dramatically, completely different. 'Nuff said. |

Google Health debuts - you'd think that this would've been implemented by a company like UnitedHealth or Wellpoint, but no:

| Quote: | Currently, anyone with a Google account can access the service, now in beta testing. To the average user, the beta service offers some convenient features, like the ability to enter your own medical information or search your prescription history with a few big pharmacies. But it is among patients at networked hospitals--like Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, in Boston--that Google Health will prove whether it can truly live up to the hype.
On May 20, Beth Israel Deaconess officially joined the Cleveland Clinic and a handful of pharmacies, labs, and other health businesses as Google's first partners in the new service. If Google Health succeeds at Beth Israel Deaconess, this may forecast whether patients are willing to trust their health information to large personal health record (PHR) providers, and it may hint at how Google Health and similar services might impact medical care in the future.
"I have a strong belief that patients should be the stewards of their own medical data," says John Halamka, chief information officer at Beth Israel Deaconess, who also chairs the national Health Information Technology Standards Panel and sits on Google Health's advisory council. |
