One drugmaker has figured out how to pull down $2.52 billion over the next six months off a single disease – here’s how to get your piece of the action.

It could easily have been a headline from the 19th century. “Plague Ship Docks at Marseille: The arrival of the Norwegian flagged “Voyager of the Seas” caused much concern today, as 60 of its crew were found to be suffering from the new influenza virus that is spreading rapidly in Europe, Asia and the Americas. An additional 60 crew members are thought to be showing nascent symptoms of the potentially fatal disease.”

Problem is, this is no historical episode. Last Friday afternoon, when the Royal Caribbean Lines cruise ship destined for Marseille arrived dockside at Villefranche, French officials in masks and gloves scurried aboard and quarantined the entire 1,500-member crew.

Currently, France has some 1,000 confirmed cases of the H1N1 “Swine Flu” virus, …

Wall Street is constantly hung up on finding the next giant economy. Is China going to continue to grow as a superpower? What about India?

The suits on the Street ask themselves these questions every day. They don’t realize that these superpowers aren’t the only places you can make big money.

Indonesia has the world’s fourth largest population, over 200 million people, but it ranks no. 16 in GDP purchasing power. Poverty and disease plague this sleeping giant. That’s why the median age of the country is just 28 years old.

The country has made some progress of late through the presidency of Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. Elected in 2004, Yudhoyono was an already important and popular figure in Indonesia after a few stints in the first couple cabinets of the fairly new democracy. He has the rank of General and is a very influential military leader worldwide.

He continues to stay popular and will,

Markets Coming Down with Swine Flu

by The Investment U Research Team

If the markets weren’t walking on eggshells already, they didn’t need an outbreak of swine flu to put them back in the intensive care ward. We’ve been looking for proximate causes for a pullback in the markets, but swine flu wasn’t one of them.

For the ultra-cynical, start shorting airline stocks like Southwest Airlines (NYSE: LUV) and Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL), and buying any biotech that has to do with flu vaccines or heap masks. It’ll be the knee-jerk reactions to any whisper of plague.

But it might be too late to go that route for investors; the biggest gains have already been made. For traders it’s a different story – they should love the volatility this adds.

For investors looking for what’s next –

It’s a curious symptom of the consensus trance zombifying the American public and its auditors in the media that something like a “recovery” is now deemed to be underway. And, as events compel me to repeat in this space, it begs the question: recovery to what?

To Wall Street booking stupendous profits by laundering “risk” out of bad loans with new issues of tranche-o-matic securitized paper? This I doubt, since there isn’t a pension fund left from San Jose to Bratislava that would touch this stuff with a stick, even if it could be turned out in collector’s editions of boxed sets.

Does it mean that American “consumers” (so-called) are awaited momentarily in the flat-screen TV sales parlors with their credit cards fanned-out like poker hands, ready for “action?” Not too likely with massive non-performance out in cardholder-land, and half the nation’s electronics inventory wending its way onto Craig’s List.

Alex’s Notes: Another letter from a guy who runs a regular American business.

I have seen a few of these letters lately, and personally I am thankful that captains of American businesses are starting to speak out against the nonsense.

And when I say Captains, no I dont mean CEO’s of Wall Street Bankster firms.

I have seen alot of reactions to letters like this lately, most good, people have decided to do the right thing and are committed to going back to the values that made America great.

I have also seen the opposite, infuriated “workers” who are ticked off and irate because they will no longer be able to sit around and get fat.

If that offends you…well…sorry. Sort of.

Satyam Computer (SAY) Just like the Plague

by Jeannette Di Louie, Assistant Editor, Mt. Vernon Research

Editor’s Note: With any large company involved in a substantial scandal, it will take Satyam Computer Services (NYSE: SAY) awhile before it can get back to the business of making money – without distraction. For investors, this is a pretty clear signal to stay away until the firm finds it’s footing again. And with each passing week, it seems like there is another headline-grabbing revelation. For speculators and bottom feeders, it can be hard to tell which drop is the final one. And the lesson here is clear. If you can’t figure that out, you probably should stay away as well. Remember that there are still areas in India that suffer from the plague – I’d avoid them as well.

Want to know what the price of a barrel of oil will be in eight years? Exactly $119.50 a barrel. There’s no shortage of pundits predicting where oil prices are heading. And every day seems to bring new reasons to change the forecast – a resurgent dollar, Americans curtailing their driving habits, oil supply reports… The list goes on. But the guys who really know the future of oil prices are those sitting right in the driver’s seat – oil producers. Every day, they make bets about the direction of petro prices on the futures market. And right now, they’re telling you – in no uncertain terms – oil’s got a floor price of $100 a barrel for years to come. “Oil-flation” is here to stay, but this free report reveals four ways you can beat it starting now… The Future Price of Oil – And Why You don’t ...

More talk about a U.S. government bailout for Fannie Mae (FNM) and Freddie Mac (FRE) today spells doom for shareholders of the government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs).  Fannie shares are down 6.6% near mid-day trading, while Freddie is down nearly 15%.  Then again, who besides day-traders are getting within a ten-foot pole of either holding these days?

Perhaps this lends perspective to the fact that speculative Lehman buyout news today has generated bullishness in today's market, whereas the FNM and FRE gloominess hasn't put the same pressure on stocks downward.  Both stocks are at Zacks Rank #4 (Sell).

Fannie Mae's last two quarters had posted earnings surprises of -229% (June) and -414% (March).  Freddie Mac recently had 5 analysts downwardly revise earnings estimates for the September quarter in the last month, and 6 for fiscal years 2008 and 2009.  Avoid like the plague.
