Human Resource cut off can do affects companies Financial Crunches?

tonybrownie — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 18:24:12 GMT

Directly or indirectly, most of the companies were hit by recession. The severe financial crunch is forcing companies, all over the world, to go for downsizing in every aspect. Every company irrespective of the cash reserves and size is keeping the employee lay off option open, during these days. This is really something, which is sad because there are no other options left at this stage except laying off precious and gifted human resources, who had served the company in its good times. Does putting the employees on Forced leave can help the companies? Or just cutting the increments of the employee, their CEO, CTO, CFO CTC can helps? What possible measures should company takes at this time to stop getting into more financial crunch and even can save its human resources who served the company at the good times?

Consumer confidence grows in housing market

tonybrownie — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 18:21:07 GMT

Consumers' confidence in the housing market is increasing, with nearly half of people expecting prices to rise during the coming year, research showed.

Around 49 per cent of people think property values will increase in the coming 12 months, while 12 per cent think they will stay the same, according to the Building Societies Association.

But people are not expecting strong gains, predicting that prices will edge ahead by only 1.4 per cent during the period, although this is a significant improvement from predictions of falls of 6.1 per cent when the same research was conducted in March.

Only one in five people now think it is a bad time to purchase a home, while 27 per cent of those questioned are still expecting further price falls, down from 65 per cent in March.

The rise in confidence follows a run of positive data on the housing market in recent weeks, with both Nationwide and Halifax reporting house price rises during May.

This could give a significant blow in Real Estate Business..

Stock Command - Game for the iPhone/iPod Touch

Branden Russell — Wed, 04 Feb 2009 20:07:28 GMT

Hi all. It's been a long time since I've visited this forum. I hope everyone is doing well.

This is in NO way related to Equis or Thomson Reuters. This is something I've done on my own time. I rereleased my stock themed game and thought the people here might be interested. It's for the iPhone/iPod Touch and is a twist on Missile Command. You try to stop falling stocks from taking out your piles of money. It's a fun little time waster.

Let me know what you think. iTunes link: http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=303381100&mt=8

Symbol Database Utility - Need everyone's feedback

Branden Russell — Wed, 09 Aug 2006 16:08:44 GMT

I'm thinking about doing a utility in my personal free time to give to people on the forum.
I have to get it approved by Equis since it isn't something someone outside of Equis could do and so on.
So, I'm not making any promises that it will get done.

Having said that, I would really like to know how many people would be interested in the utility I have in mind.

It would be a program that you run after updating your symbol database.
It would allow you to pick a group or securites (All, NYSE, S&P 500, etc ) just like it is in the symbol database.
Then you pick a folder on your hard drive.
It does all the rest of the work for you.
It would create any security file that doesn't already exist in the specified folder or a sub folder of it.

That means you could use this to either create a whole local database or just use it to update an existing one when you get a new database file.

It would create the folders needed. You would just specify a main folder such as C:\MetaStock Data\NASDAQ. It would either look in or create folders as needed to make all the securites in the group you selected.

Is this something that you would be interested in?

Traders' Consortium

StorkBite — Tue, 06 Mar 2007 04:08:13 GMT

Traders' Consortium is a forum for investors and active traders. It is not trading platform specific, but it does include an area for such discussions. The site is php based, not aspx, and is using the IPS software suite which has been around forever. The point is... stability.

As with all things new, there are a lot of kinks to work out. The future direction is still being trail blazed, but I hope that you will be a part of helping to build it up. It would be great to hear any ideas that you have concerning content or features.

I hope to build a "community" of traders and actually have some fun. One big drawback that I've found to any company forum is that it will inevitably focus on support issues. The born again concept is simple: peer-to-peer support.

Hope to see you there.

How to Calculate the Mutual Fund Cash-To-Assets Ratio (or M.F. Liquidity Ratio)?

pirx — Wed, 13 Jun 2007 15:50:22 GMT

Hello!

For an easier understanding, here is the definition of Cash-to-Assets or Liquidity Ratio: http://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/mutualfundliquidityratio.asp

All necessary data for calculating this ratio should be found on Investment Company Institute's website (http://www.ici.org/index.html). Until now, the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston published this ratio in Monthly Mutual Fund Report, but after July, the report won't be published anymore.

I would be very thankful, if somebody could help me to figure it out, how to calculate this ratio myself? I'm really not sure, where to look for the necessary data, but somewhere on ICI's website, it should be there.

Many thanks in advance!

Copyright infringement is a crime

Jose — Tue, 22 May 2007 09:53:54 GMT

Not only is Copyright infringement illegal, but it kills the free exchange of ideas within our community. No one in their right mind will post a genuine idea if it is destined to be stolen and marketed by a commercial operation, and this is not good for the MetaStock community at large.

Mr Roy Larsen, please desist immediately with your continuing Copyright infringement of my unique MetaStock code. Having had no fresh ideas of your own since 2000 does not necessarily give you the right to steal other's intellectual property for commercial gain.

Mr Larsen, this is my last warning to you.

Please cease your blatant copyright infringement activities immediately - you owe this to the MetaStock community that supports your income.

Mr Larsen, you may continue to use my unique Calendar-based reference indicators by appropriately including the complete code and copyright header.
You may also continue to use my snippets of code within your TE formulae without giving credit to its source.
However, if you persist with your blatant copyright violation(s), I will be forced to take legal action against you and your associates.
