A survey conducted by Citigroup amongst major institutional investors provided the following insight on todays markets:
The favored sector is Tech and this sector has held the top position over the last 12 months. Growth stocks are also a hot item of late, the market sees the economy in a more positive view for the second half ofthe year and this should bode well for growth stocks. An additional upside of 6% is expected from current market levels to the end of the year. The majority of this optimism is due to the market rally since March, investors believe the market has bottomed. Regardless of the expected drop (approximately 20%) in earnings this year, a common consensus is the rebound in 2010 will be in the double digits. I’m certain Oracle has this information in mind prior to its acquisition.

Argh...Sun is a shadow of what it once was. I knew they needed to be bought, but I was really hoping IBM was going to make it happen.

Larry is a savy but ruthless business man with a great eye for value. Great at acquiring companies...terrible at innovating them. Hope Sun is able to figure out a sustainable life under Oracle.
