FIRST KNOW YOU’RE RIGHT

By Kenneth Moore | Mar 21, 2012

Garrett nailed it when he wrote:  ”When you find yourself finally at the point where you really are frustrated to see the price of your company go up, you know you’re now maturing into … a Rule #1 Investor!”   

Like Davey Crockett said (according to Walt Disney), “First be sure you’re right.  Then go ahead.”  I loved that line from the TV show.  When I was 9 it made so much sense.  Life is easy.  Just be sure you’re right, then go ahead.  Then I grew up and volunteered for the Army during Vietnam, married and divorced twice, got all into a guru in India and thought a million dollars was a fortune.  I’ve been wrong so many times down started to look like up to me.  And all the while, I was seriously trying to follow Crockett’s advice.  My conclusion is that in life’s decisions, only God knows for sure and the best you can do is follow a good set of rules about what’s right and wrong.  With investing, on the other hand, things are simpler.  It is possi

Treasury warns of deficit blowout

By Thomas Lee | Mar 10, 2012

Treasury says the government’s corporate tax take may miss forecasts for the rest of the financial year, leaving the Crown vulnerable to a bigger-than-expected annual deficit.

The government’s tax revenue was 2.9 percent short of forecast at $31.36 billion in the seven months ended Jan. 31.

The Treasury said tepid wage growth and employment sapped source deductions, while insurance companies sought GST refunds, and companies paid less tax than forecast.

The operating balance before gains and losses (OBEGAL) was a deficit of $4.31 billion in the period, wider than the shortfall of $3.84 billion flagged in the pre-election economic and fiscal update (PREFU).

“Corporate tax assessments in the month of January were below forecast which is a pattern that is now expected to persist to the end of the financial year,” chief financial officer Fergus Welsh said in a statement.
