The financial press is beating its “depression” drums just a bit harder this afternoon in the wake of Congress’ surprise rejection of its bailout legislation and the market’s strong drop. However, we remain skeptical that this behemoth bill would indeed be the market’s short term salvation. Market forces, patience and a committment to legitimate capitalist principals, not more government interference, will probably do more to turn around a bad situation.

Research in Motion has had one heck of a day, dropping more than 27% after a disappointing earnings release. We are starting to like the posibilities that are represented by this growth story that all of a sudden is attractively priced.

Okham Research views Kraft Food (KFT) shares as fully valued at present. However, this newest member of the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) represents a defensive component of the economy (Consumer Goods), has broad international exposure, pays a 3.3% dividend and has a market cap close to $50 billion. As such, income-oriented investors looking for a safe harbor in this rocky market might consider Kraft Foods shares for their portfolio.

in this article we are highlighting a great mid-cap company in the Healthcare IT market. QSII has grown by leaps and bounds as the electrionic medical records (EMR) market has expanded greatly.
