The ups and downs of Retail stocks

There are many ups and downs to retail stocks, the tough bit is getting to know how to get to know them!

The main issues with whether it is a good stock, particular to the retail sector that is, are ease of entry to the market, management issues and the cyclical nature of the sector.

The ease of enty to market means how easily a competitor can start up and directly compete with you. In retail, this is relatively easy, lets say compared with the Oil and Mining stocks.

Managememt too, plays an important part as fads, fashions and brands are judged harshly by the general public.

Lastly, the economic cycle can play a big part, for example, our current situation! For the ups check out my next entry!

The camera that is so good why would you buy a video cam?

After uploading some stuff I thought about writing a post gloryifying the greatness of an old piece of tech I bought a while back (why buy a new gizmo when an old one still kills it!).

I bought my digital camera about 18 months ago, though a similar model was around before it, and possibly one before that.

I wanted a high spec, easy to use camera that had the potential to be a good video camera. I got it.

The Casio Exilim Youtube digital cameras are the s**t if you want a no hassle good quality (mine is 10.1 megapixels, top of the range 18 months ago and still damn good now) digital camera. The added bonus is it is soo good it works very well as a video camera, saving me over 300 odd pounds on buying one of those.

The best shot feature, which adjust settings such as the amount of light let in, shutter speed, flash and colours works very very well. There are settings for parties, outdoor, portraits, autumn leaves, flowers etc.

Cheap as well- I got mine for just over £100!

I very much recommend it!
