I was watching a tv show about stock picks the other day and a new commercial was on tv. It showed a loving couple sitting on their bed and taking images of a cheque from uncle bob. They used their smartphone to upload an image of the front and back of the cheque and then sent it to their bank, which I believe was wachovia bank in the united states. Pretty crazy stuff since they can now accpet cheques any time of day and from anywhere. I'd love to see their IT plans on maintaining security and reducing cheque fraud.

Buyout definition and potash
Considering the recent interest in potash and the proposed buyout from bhp then it is worthwhile to actually review the definition.
Definition 1
Purchase of the controlling stock or shares of a firm by its own management. If borrowed funds are used in the buyout, it is called a 'leveraged buyout.'
Definition 2
Purchase by a publicly traded firm of its outstanding (held by the public) stock to thwart a takeover attempt, or to take the firm off the stockmarket for converting it into a private company.

Potash corp waiting for highest bidder?
What final share price will satisfy the execs at potash? Some skeptics are thinking that china will become a primary player in this bidding war to win potash.
I'm hoping that the potash stock price will be above 185 per share.
Would you sell as the price climbs or would you just sit back until the battle to win potash is done?
