Between MacWorld and the Consumer Electronics Show, investors (and reporters) can usually count on January to start out with a bang. But this year, Steve Jobs isn’t attending MacWorld. And CES? Well, how exciting is a show about high priced gadgets, when no one has any money to spend.
But never fear: My guest Paul Kedrosky joined me to tell investors what he thinks the unsexy but potentially lucrative CES trend will be. Also, he weighs in on today’s Sony drama.

Is he the only commentator Sarah Lacy interviews?
gosh, let's not act as if Apple is the inventor the all the technology it incorporates. CES also shows the true innovative companies that companies like apple, samsung, sony, etc uses in their "latest" gadgets.
There's always someone able to make money in any economy. 2009 won't be any different than the 2008. If you're predicting better days in 2009, I suggest you check UNEMPLOYMENT numbers!
nice to see that WDC is moving about like BAC...nice moves for the day traders...swings make money :) I also like having something that isn't financials... just an idea-
History is the stock market leads recovery, not following. Look at other more pertinent indicators such as metal salvage prices, and ocean freight. These tell us when manufacturing and consumers are buying. Unemployment is what was and also important short term. More reliable nulmbers weeks later when corrected numbers are meaningful. The jury is still out for 2009 and where the stimulus actually reaches the market place. I'm more focused on 2010.
Sony has a history of innovation without sufficient follow up. I have the impression of a company that puts out their best effort on a new project and then relegates the second generation product to their weakest engineers. Can they change this pattern in the digital camera market? I owned both a Sony Mavica and a Sony F707. I have great photos from both. Will Sony compete effectively with Canon and Nikon for the top end digital camera market? One big problem is getting people to invest in expensive lenses from a company with a history of abandoning product lines. (I have moved on to Canon digital cameras.)
All bad news is allready anticipated long time ago, all of them was factored since last September 2008 to December 2008 ahead of any future position so in this case whatver come... is....no SURPRISE.....What I know Investor will make more money in 2009........Okay.....Bonanza......
Bonanza is around this year........Make more money......Buy and enjoy..............Bonanza.......
I feel sorry for all the Investors that pulled out and lost money from the market in late 2008. Now it appears evident we are headed for a somewhat recovery and I would buy now while prices are low and HOLD to at least 2nd qtr 09. I stayed in, sold shares in only one stock and lost no money! Be firm Investors; don't panic. Edwin Thoma, small time investor.
