The Digital in Business Cycle
All business experience distinct cycles of economic growth, inflation and employment. In fact, some business exist to publish hundreds business-cycle indexes for all the major economies (i.e. United State, China and India.) For example, you often read about U.S. Weekly Leading Index (WLI).
Sources such as the The Economist, will provide information about organizations that provide advance warning of possible recessions, some are impressively accurate and some are false alarms. To no real surprise many business indexes indicate that U.S. economic growth will accelerate this year.
There are less reasons to worry about a fragile economy at this time, and there is little reason to worry about inflation-or deflation according to market researchers.
Personally, it appears the federal policy is hyper-stimulative and a new boom-bust cycle in the years ahead is mandatory because anything else would be riot inducing.
This is based on intelligence received from secretive collaboration between Global Investment Strategist and International Economist about the economy, inflation, home prices, jobs and the Fed. To purchase copies of the un-edited version of their conversation send request to dml.e3d1@gmail.com

TradingWolf Watchlist:Oak Capital Group
-------------------------------------------------
Oak Capital Group
Most small business owners are optimists by nature and find the silver lining in most situations. The news media doesn’t help keep spirits up but here are a few articles that highlight an improving business climate.
- 41% of Small Businesses More Confident Than a Year Ago (PR Newswire)
- Businesses Are Borrowing Again (ABC News)
- Helping Small Businesses Access Capital (US Treasury Office)
Oak Capital Group has continued to support the small to mid-sized business with a strong funding roster in the month of Feb. Here are some highlights:
· $165,000 : An owner of four Burger King locations on the West Coast needed $165,000 to upgrade the point of sale systems (hardware and software) to comply with franchise standards. The locations had suffered from declining revenues the last 2 years. We structured a $3,500 monthly payment with a minimal upfront cost.
· $20,000: An East Coast based moving company needed to add an additional box truck to their fleet. We funded approximately $20,000 for a late 90’s model with an affordable payment and quick funding.
· $750,000 Equipment Line of Credit: A Los Angeles based provider of data storage solutions is currently building a server farm in the downtown area and presented us with over $750,000 of needs for the next three quarters. We funded the gear immediately needed for delivery and established an equipment line of credit for future purchasing needs.

Investor Wanted Series: Project - Digital Content Unlimited
As a member of DTI, I am also interested in an investor. I own a company that works with applications for digital ttechnologies and my business partner owns a company that works with electronic sensing, relaying and communicating techniques. We have just joined forces but need capital in our combined industries to continue to grow and expand. As part of our expansion we will launch a Content Management Division that will provide the necessary marketing and advertisement resources to maximize market penetration. However, without the capitol to get larger contracts, better technology, and more workers we basically have plateaued.
Scenario A: Bigger contracts require you to have communication network with approximately 6 to 10 thousand feet of cat5e and cat6 with all the other products. Our sensors and relaying equipment are suitable for such small installations but the 30% deposits (offered in current procurement notices) are not nearly enough to meet all the material and labor requirements.
Scenario B: When you get a contract to completely re-due the entire marketing and business profitability of about 10 companies. We need to produce samples, presentations and get approvals but to get those samples and eventually to execute the project you need re-model our existing free and clear operations, warehouse and studio video production space which could also be rented for $250 bucks an hour. Ideally, can save that $250 bucks an hour we can potentially reduce the overall cost to our new clients and secure numerious proposals and be effective moving forward.
I'm looking for a few Venture Capitalist or Angel Investors to invest $2.5 M to 5M so within the next 24 to 36 months to complete a very agressive merger and acquision strategy in the Washington D.C. market. Basically, the content demand in the Washington area is scheduled to triple based on upcoming events and we are positioned to provide 5 times the invested amounts once the deliver and deployment of the content and service devilery is completed.

Merger & Acquistion: 1st Quarter 2011
Analysts and other sources suggest M&A could move into areas like e-commerce, enterprise intelligence, and web-based diagnostics, and have named CommVault (NASDAQ:CVLT), MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:MSTR), Open Text (TO:OTC), and RightNow (NASDAQ:RNOW) as prospects.
Digital technology firms will compete to acquire niche software groups well into 2011 as part of a expansion strategy they hope will seek and acquire recession-hit clients seeking recover and expand as well.
And with revenues returning to growth, they have pockets full of cash at their disposal.
Leading this trend is companies, such as IBM (NYSE:IBM) and Oracle (NASDAQ:ORCL), who are buying specialist software makers so they can offer more to corporate customers. It is reported that Oracle alone has spent more than $42 billion on acquisitions over the past six years, and it had $10.4 billion in cash at the end of November.
Basically, with revenues recovering, enterprises need to find a use for this money, and they are looking to place bets on emerging digital technologies.

As digital data grows beyond exabyte
An exabyte (derived from the SI prefix exa-) is a unit of information or computer storage equal to one quintillion bytes (short scale). The unit symbol for the exabyte is EB. When used with byte multiples, the unit indicates a power of 1000:
Companies like Isilon Systems seeks to control the management of this enormous industry and based on the 52 week constant increase in stock price its a great time to invest.
Please note, Isilon Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: ISLN) sells clustered data storage devices specialized for digital content such as images and videos. The company's clustered systems cater to the growth in digital data, such as images from scientific research and high-resolution videos from the media industry. Falling product prices per unit of storage capacity in the data storage market, in addition to the rapid increase in the amount of digital data that organizations are storing, have maintained the demand for Isilon's products. Its customers range from small and medium businesses to Fortune 500 companies. Unlike traditional data storage systems, a clustered data storage system combines the processing power and storage capacity of multiple, smaller storage servers. This increases the scalability of the storage system, since an information communication technology (ICT) organization can add additional storage servers as needed.
- 1 EB = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 B = 1018 bytes = 1 billion gigabytes = 1 million terabytes

The Allure of Utility Computing: Unmet!
Unlike traditional data, such as e-mails, word documents, and accounting spreadsheets, digital content requires additional storage features, such as the ability to let multiple users access the same file at the same time. Clustered storage systems combine the data storage capacity of multiple file servers, called nodes, with an operating system that integrates the data stored on the separate servers. This data storage system is both scalable, since ICT personnel can add additional nodes as needed, and reliable, since a user's data is not all gathered in one physical location.
On the hardware side the products are file servers that can store terabytes of data (1 terabyte = 1000 gigabytes). What differentiates these servers is the trademark built-in operating system software that integrates the data from all of the separate nodes, which leads to the additional features that digital content requires.
The organizations working in media & entertainment, Internet, cable/telecommunications, energy, life sciences/health care and manufacturing industries, as well as intelligence gathering operations of the federal government are mainly interested in this level of product and services. The size of clients range from small/medium business to Fortune 500 corporations that don't want a long-term contract. But what about the individuals that need utility computing to address daily challenges. This is not a new concept but definitely a concept that has not been addressed. We have spoken with venture capitalist that will provide at least $1 million in investment capital for a company that can meet this individual demand requirements.
For more information and insight regarding the potential promise and unmet demand then consider purchasing and reviewing the following sources;

On the software side the vendor provides ancillary computer software applications that enhance or take advantage of the system of integrated, but separate, file servers. These application include disaster recovery disk-to-disk backup, load balancing (distributing traffic so that a single file server is not overloaded), and data management applications.

As political parties play friends - telecommunication providers play foes!
Verizon is attacking AT&T and vice versa. T-Mobile is attacking both of them. Sprint does not have much to fight about at this juncture but that will change as LTE and WiMAX adoption increase.
Among the more recent attack ads was one from Verizon touting the sound quality of its iPhone. Now, AT&T is firing back at Verizon with an ad touting the benefits of talking and surfing the Web at the same time.
As indicated below both Verizon and AT&T stock are down at the time of this post but perhaps that respresent opportunities for investors.

Datacenter Giant under investigation
(“Terremark” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:TMRK - News) related to the Company’s agreement to be acquired by Verizon Communications Inc. (“Verizon”). The proposed transaction is valued at approximately $1.4 billion. Terremark shareholders will receive $19.00 in cash per share for a total transaction value of $1.4 billion. Verizon also entered into agreements with three Terremark stockholders to tender their shares into the offer, representing approximately 27.6 percent of the outstanding voting shares of Terremark. The investigation concerns whether the Terremark Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to Terremark stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before entering into this transaction and whether Verizon is underpaying for Terremark shares, thus unlawfully harming Terremark stockholders.
This is one worth watching because the final organization will dominate the digital service delivery market. Buying Verizon Communications Inc. Com (NYSE: VZ ) After Hours: 36.29
0.02 (0.06%) now is a wise choice, buying Terremark would not be smart unless one of the pending legal battles prevail.

Want to invest in big names?
As of today, you’d need $34,664 to invest in Apple Inc. (NasdaqGS: AAPL), $41,100 to invest in General Electric (NYSE: GE), and $61,140 to invest in Google Inc. (NasdaqGS: GOOG). That’s because while the unit price is within reach of most people ($346, $20.55, and $611.40 respectively), you have to buy shares in bulk (100, 2,000, and 100 respectively).
With those sums in today’s market, you could buy a foreclosed house. On the other hand, President Obama just recently asked General Electric Chief Executive Jeffrey Immelt to lead
the President's Council on Jobs and Competitiveness. Opinion is divided on the value of GE stock, but long-term GE appears to have an inside lane.
