Business Brilliance? Apple iPhone Profit Margin Narrowed Down To 55%

Cupertino (CA) - We may criticize Apple for its business practices, but there is no doubt that there are few other hardware manufactures that can offer their products at similar profit margins as Apple (and convince people to stand in line for them.) According to iSuppli, Apple’s profit margin of the iPhone 3G (excluding research, development and marketing) is in the neighborhood of 55%.

S&P Picks and Pans: Bank of America, Genentech, Yahoo, Microsoft, Schering-Plough

Based on higher net interest margin and lower securities writedown assumptions, we are raising our 2008 EPS estimate by $0.16, to $2.25. Based on preliminary results, BAC is taking a $12.8 billion writedown on its Countrywide purchase. By our analysis, we believe writedowns will ultimately reach at least $20 billion, not including additional litigation risk. BAC has still not committed to guaranteeing Countrywide's debt. In our opinion, the ultimate fate of that debt may be tied to the severity of writedowns. (Note: Earlier, S&P upgraded BAC to sell from strong sell.) BAC posts Q2 operating EPS of $0.72, vs. $1.28, $0.20 above our estimate and $0.19 above consensus. The better-than-expected results reflect a 6% sequential increase in net interest income due to significant margin expansion and lower securities writedowns.

30% of Americans Want "Balanced" Blogging

Cutie Pi writes "In a recent Rasmussen poll looking at the public's attitudes toward a possible revival of the fairness doctrine by the Democrats, a surprisingly large percentage of those polled seek fairness doctrine mandates (originally intended for public airwaves) to cover the Internet as well. It is encouraging that a minority of people feel that way, but Democrats say 'hands-off the Internet ... by a far smaller margin than Republicans and unaffiliated voters. Democrats oppose government-mandated balance on the Internet by a 48% to 37% margin. Sixty-one percent (61%) of Republicans reject government involvement in Internet content along with 67% of unaffiliated voters.'"

Old warhorses look to shine

India begin their three-Test series at a venue where they have suffered their worst loss against Sri Lanka; the last time these two sides played at the Sinhalese Sports Club Ground in Colombo, India were trounced by an innings and 77 runs.
