WHAT'S NEXT?
STOCKCENTRAL SUBSCRIBERS REFLECT ON A RATHER SURLY 2008

Long-term, fundamental investors - ever the optimistic bunch - are holding out hope that as the old year goes out like a lion, the New Year will come in like a lamb. Alas, from sea to shining sea, the land has been transformed into sheer arctic tundra - better known to those donning rose-colored glasses as one Winter Wonderland.


This reporter would be remiss were she to fail to divulge that she herself has been seen trudging to and fro through piles of freshly-fallen snow two horses' high. Alas, though investors are experiencing the depths of the winter season both in the landscape surrounding their humble homes as well as in their investment portfolios, they would be wise to hold one truth close: Old Man Winter, despite his tight, icy grip, cannot defy or deny the coming of Spring.


On to today's headlines...





IS THE TIME RIPE FOR APPLE?
STOCKCENTRAL SUBSCRIBERS CONSIDER
THE FRUITS OF THE COMPANY'S LABOR

Might there be a bumper crop lying dormant just beneath the surface of the frigid, frozen earth? StockCentral member Lynn Brown is pondering this very question.


"My club has watched Apple for five years," she writes in the StockCentral Apple forum. "At first, the earnings were too erratic... but wow, with the price dropping to reflect fears with retail, it is in a buy range on my SSG, Take Stock SSG. We are buying."


"By the way, two members reported that the Apple store was the only store with loads of people in two different shopping malls in San Diego County. Guess consumers aren't applying buying fears to their Apple-related tech toys." Lynn also notes that Apple has, "...loads of cash and little debt. Annual report looks good. ROA is 12 percent and down a bit in 2008, but still up."


What do investors think? Is Apple stock ripe for the picking? Could there be a banner harvest down the road for long-term, patient, fundamental investors? Be sure to check out both the stock study and the Excel spreadsheet that Lynn posted. And don't be shy. Delight like-minded investors with your pearls of wisdom by posting your take on the matter... is Apple spreading seeds of new growth far and wide, or rotten to the core?




CHRISTMAS MORN FRESHLY PASSED, STOCKCENTRAL SUBSCRIBERS WONDER...
DID JOLLY 'OL ST. NICK DELIVER THE GOODS?



Ah yes, after you have ripped through those festively-wrapped gifts under the freshly-cut Norway Spruce and tossed aside the ribbons on Christmas morn, this reporter cannot help but wonder: What to your wondering eyes have appeared? Did Santa and his eight tiny reindeer - after landing upon your rooftop with a thud and subsequently devouring your offering of milk, cookies and hay - bring you the ICLUBcentral items that top your list?


This reporter is privy to a lot of - dare she utter the words aloud - insider information. Be that as it may, she shouted with joy o'er the StockCentral subscribers who so thoughtfully purchased the latest State and Federal Tax Printers as well as the Toolkit 6 upgrade as gifts to bestow upon their long-term, fundamental cohorts. She was also deeply saddened at the thought of those members whose hopes - upon opening the final gift under the green boughs - have been dashed.


If St. Nick failed to deliver your heart's desire as he unfurled the contents of his heavy sack, this reporter has news that will both shock and delight you. That twinkle in Santa's eye is none other than a glimmer of hope. For though Santa's work here is done and he and his hoofed friends have returned to the North Pole, there is still time for StockCentral subscribers to give themselves the gift that will keep on giving throughout 2009 and beyond.


Your sage, indefatigable reporter would not say it if it weren't so. StockCentral subscribers can still save a bundle on the latest Tax Printers and - to boot - the Toolkit 6 software upgrade. Buy five subscriptions to StockCentral and your club will receive Federal Tax Printer absolutely FREE. Buy ten or more subscriptions and receive both the Federal Tax Printer AND the State Tax printer FREE. That's a savings of $89.99 for each tax printer, a total of $179.98!


And, if that's not enough to make you tear open the shutters and throw up the sash, the Toolkit 6 upgrade is discounted for all celebrants donning glasses and welcoming in the new year two thousand and nine - provided they sign up before the giant ball drops in none other than the Big Apple.





TODAY'S ENTIRELY RELEVANT QUOTATION
