We Finally Mention Google!

from February 2nd, 2006

Let’s get one thing straight - Investorial does not seek to align itself with the mass media for the simple logic that you can’t criticize effectively what you are a part of! Surf quickly around the net, you will find various news, blogs, critiques of how the stock market abandoned Google and Yahoo. Shareholders rushing to sell because earnings per share missed by one penny. It’s utterly ridiculous for this media frenzy around the topic.

Yet, Investorial has stayed quietly on the sidelines. We were not the first to blog about the stock price rollercoasters of Yahoo, Google and we never will seek that title. What we like to do is find that article hidden within the mess which can expose the idiocy of the situation in such a simple way that it is a wonderous sight to behold!

What tickles us the most are articles that do not discuss numbers, do not talk about statistics but simply talks to a reader in plain English, and still achieves what all those analytical journalism could not. I’ll say again, Herb Greenberg is a genius!

So we are all looking forward to tax season right? (tongue-in-cheek) I wonder if Herb thought of this when he started writing about the Google speculators. Herb succintly leveraged this angle to put those speculators in their place; judging with common sense, and explaining his view so clearly to me that I couldn’t help cracking a smile at the end of those paragraphs.

I’ve deliberately left out the content because you should be the judge. I’m not sure if you’ll agree with me, but have a read for yourself. I also profiled Mr. Greenbereg in a previous post.
