Weekend Wazzup for March 6, 2005

My roundup of the Fox News Channel' s "Cost of Freedom" Saturday Morning shows-- is here.
Weighing in on the Roundtable so far are Ron Sen, and Levi Bauer; other Roundtable members are Tom at Sixth World, Bill Cara, Kaushik Gala, and yours truly.
Speaking of my Roundtable brothers, Ron Sen has his usual weekend plethora of posts, with six so far. Galatime pointed to another good resource on options. Tom Ott at Sixth World brings us up to date on some changes at his site. Bill Cara once again presents an outstanding review of the week. Read it for yourself, but just a hint--he thinks there is more downside risk than upside potential in most US equities at this point. And Levi links to the other Soothsayer of Omaha.
Speaking of Buffett, Taylor Tree made mention of an interesting book--that examines the trading of Warren Buffett, not the "favorite holding period is forever"Buffett, but the buying and selling Warren Buffett. Looks like good stuff.
Chairman MaoXian whose newsletter came out yesterday, also had some great excerpts from the other Chairman's letter. Check out his chat (Mao's, not Warren's) every weekday 8:30-9:30 Eastern time.
Stockcoach bemoans his lack of a position in energy stocks.
Stephen Castellano at Reflections on Equity Research had a couple interesting notes--asking for any suggested questions for a hedge fund panel, and suggesting that others on the internet may want to join in an open source equity research project.
TraderMike read a couple charts--NVT and THQI.
Byrne's Marketview gave in and said the "M" word. Well, I guess somebody had too.
Material Change linked to a free, open-source VoIP platform for embedded devices. (gotta show my geek side every now and then.)
Random Roger made a great suggestion that we should read, and let CNBC know how to improve their programming. Failing that, I just may have to get satellite TV!
Ugly at uglychart has a running "survivor" contest for stock market blogs. (Jaloti is coming up fast--while I'm not sure I want to get voted off the island, I notice that in the real survivor, getting voted off often led to TV appearances, so maybe its not so bad!)
And finally, another new blog for my list--the Alchemy of Trading, which was featured in Barron's this week. Looks like another one I'll have to follow!
