The Financials Pit Review
For the week of April 9th, 2007
By PitGuru Larry Levin
Recap - Last week we saw a decent amount of buying in the stock indices on a holiday shortened week. Each day (Monday thru Thursday) saw the S&P 500 finish higher but, as expected, the move higher was on fairly low volume due to the holiday type volume. Nevertheless, the market still found a reason to go higher with the very strange situation of having the Employment Report released while the market was closed.
COMMERCIAL TRANSACTIONS
A development company purchased 10.4 acres at the northwest corner of the Dallas North Tollway and Chapel Hill Road in Plano with plans for hotel and retail development. Philip Green of Dalstar Commercial Realty Inc. handled negotiations with Jim Brown of the James Brown Co. A Las Cruces, N.M., investor bought the 264-unit Walnut Ridge Apartments at 2500 Burney Road in Arlington. Tom Burns and Jay Gunn of Hendricks & Partners negotiated the sale. Los Angeles-based LS Realty Group sold Canyon Creek Plaza, a 52,000-square-foot shopping center at 200-348 W. Campbell Road in Richardson to Dallas-based Dunhill Partners. David Dubois of Synergy Commercial Brokerage negotiated the sale. A California investor purchased the 80-unit Barrymore Apartments at 1315 S. Barry Ave. in Dallas.
Wind power is viable energy alternative, officials say
Beacon - Hudson Valley residents were given a chance to see just how beneficial using wind energy could be Monday evening when Congressman John Hall hosted a forum on the topic. The congressman invited several specialists in the field to the Howland Cultural Center in the City of Beacon to help promote his wind energy initiatives and the overall benefit of alternative energy. Paul Curran from BQ Energy, one of the guest speakers, said that New York and the Hudson Valley in particular have enough resources to use wind energy, and that now is the best time financially to play catch up with the rest of the energy world. He said 23 percent of energy in Denmark is produced from wind and 15 percent of all the energy in Germany is generated from wind. New York is at about one percent, Curran said.
