After hours pros and cons. Looks like good news in the tech/semi area. Less good in the world of fried chicken.
- Is the fried chicken business really bad? Keep in mind that fast food is expanding in China. Yum! opens one new KFC in mainland China almost every day. It already has nearly 3,000 of the fried chicken restaurants operating in 650 Chinese cities. That's in addition to 560 Pizza Hut locations. That means that they'll be gaining some weight. Think of the future chronic conditions (and investment opportunities) that will require daily doses of drugs to a very large population!
- Don't own YUM yet. But craving fried chicken...
- Intel revenue surges 34%. The Silicon Valley giant swung to a second-quarter profit of nearly $3 billion-compared with a loss in the year-earlier period because of an antitrust fine-on a 34% revenue jump that easily topped projections by the company and Wall Street analysts. Wooo.
- Hey, it's okay to unleash the f-bombs. It's your right!
- Piers Morgan (not pictured) to take over for Larry King? WHAT?
- Line2 iPhone app - free calls over wi-fi. Take that, Consumer Reports!
- Latest global warming solution: Dissolve dead bodies and dump the stuff. YEESH.
- Another (usually) ugly word combination: 2010 Fantasy Football Outlook for the Miami Dolphins. A potentially explosive Dolphins offense, eh? Remember to fade the hype in game #1 if the point spread allows. Got to prove it first, fellas.
