- The Battle for The New York Times
- This is a fascinating battle where two fundamental impulses--the right of shareholders to earn the best possible returns and the role of an independent media in the American democracy--come into conflict. Disclosure: I've been writing for the Times for seven years, but think I can step back...

- Mad in Seattle: Microsoft's Proxy Fight Is All Wrong
- I know this marks me as oh-so-last century, but one American military officer fighting in Vietnam was quoted as saying, "We had to destroy the village to save it." In other words, to prevent the village from falling into the hands of the Commies, it had to be torched. ...

- Goodbye, Eddie Lampert. We Hardly Knew Ye.
- Well, it looks official. As I have warned previously in these pages, Eddie Lampert's wild experiment at Sears is coming to an end. Even the Wall Street Journal (on Wednesday Jan. 23) and now the New York Times (see this link, from Friday) agree that he does not know what...

- Do Sears' Troubles Hint At Coming Wave of Bankruptcies?

- The China Bubble
- I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that there is something seriously crazy going on with Chinese company valuation, and U.S. investors need to make sure they don't get swept up in the madness. PetroChina Co. suddenly has a market valuation of $1...

- Chrysler, Private Equity and The Future Auto Industry
- Many people seem surprised by the depth of job cutbacks at Chrysler--11,000 more hourly and salaried jobs in the United States and Canada, and reduced shifts at five other plants. That comes on top of 13,000 job cuts earlier this year. But this is the new reality...

- Lucent-Alcatel: Why Cross-Cultural Mergers Are So Tough
- If you're ever tempted to undertake a cross-cultural merger or acquisition, think real hard about it. Very hard. Lucent's merger with France's Alcatel is a case in point. Although much ballyhooed when Lucent CEO Pat Russo and Alcatel CEO Serge Tchuruk reached the deal 18 months ago,...
