Corporate Bonds Good Investment

Question: I have money in the stock market - why in the world would I vote for Obama?

It seems the better solution than a bailout is to reduce cap gains tax and lower corporate taxes across the board. This could inject enough foreign and domestic investment and cash into the market to ease fears and let the market correct itself without a major catastrophe.

If you have a chunk of your assets in mutual funds (stocks and bonds) - it seems McCain is more likely to accomplish the above. If Wall Street goes down, so does my life savings.

Give me one good reason Obama could possibly help this situation on Wall Street.

Answer: I don't have one.......

But do we have enough intelligent people in this country to realize this?

I don't think so.

Corporate Bonds Valuation

June 12th, 2010

corporate bonds valuation
Question: (Hopefully) Simple question on stocks?

i read a book on stock valuation and it said that "with long-term corporate interest rates were at approximately 6.5% in 2007, a company with $54 EPS were worth approximately $830/share"

all i want to know is what these "long-term corporate interest rates" are and where i would find what it currently is

this rate applies to either stocks or Corporate Bonds

if this question does not make sense, please let me know so that i can edit it. thanks

Answer: Typically, stocks are valued in relation to the "risk-free rate." But this is always a government bond/note/bill -- not a corporate bond.

Good luck!
