    You also get Online Barrons during the week, and the Online WSJ included in the same price.

    Not true anymore. They recently changed their pricing and price each separately.

    Subscribed for years back in the 90's. Used to be a really good options guy, can't recall name. Does Alan Ableson still write for them?

    Are they still pumping GTW? They really didn't seem to want to give up on them or CSCO.

    I don't blame the mag itself, just some of their more persistent people that they take ideas from. If I remember correctly they planted Wagonner on the front w/ a nice article right when GM peaked at 50 in 03 about what a great turnaround was finally taking place.

    Remembering the bad is too easy.

    The roundtable, I find a bit annoying. I do like some of the people they interview. Santoli is definitley good and the crotchedy guy, Abelson, is good for all of his nuggys but is so decidedly negative, save for when he's kissing a pro's arse, that I can't really help but skim through the prose after a few sentences.

  10. Ableson (and Barron's in general) have called 83 of the last 2 recessions, as well as a bursting of the housing "bubble" almost every week from 2002 on.

    Barron's thinks the sky is perpetually falling.

    That being said, I still get my issue and read it every week. :D
