The 44th President and the World’s Economy - January 22, 2009

As I write this post, the United States of America is simultaneously writing own history as the citizens of the country, as well as the whole world watch as they inaugurate their forty fourth, first African American president in to the White House in the form of Barack Hussein Obama II. As the newly elected president, he is currently facing big expectations and even bigger hopes to save the economy of US from falling down, deeper in to the ground by the people of the state and the people all around the world.

It is no secret that the US economy is the barometer or the measuring stick of the majority of the countries all around the world, that even in this financial woe, the US dollar continues to be the base currency for all the exchange that we have today. The world is all eyes on Barack Obama in business, closely watching how he could turn around this global economic crisis and how he could bring back the glory of the country. Personally, at this moment, I don’t think there’s anything that he can do to turn the tables around. He would definitely need some more time before that happens so hopefully the people all around the world would be patient enough to wait until everything has been settled, before giving critics or comments against him.

Yahoo rejects Microsoft - February 12, 2008

This might not be a surprise to someone who’s been following the story of Yahoo and Microsof(largest software provider)t since rumors have been spreading since last week. So what is your take about Yahoo rejecting Microsoft’s 44.6 billion dollar offer? It could mean that the next step would be an offer, maybe twice the offer for Google Inc.

There were no details yet as to what the reason was for this rejection offer of 2 big companies.

Let’s just quote some words from the people in this business, “You would assume that their first offer isn’t the best and final offer,” said Morton Pierce, an attorney who advises on mergers and acquisitions for the law firm Dewey & LeBouef.

“The question now is how do you get to the end game?”
