There are three ways that public company insiders can convert their equity into cash. 1. They can sell their stock to the public.

You're probably thinking "Tell me something I don't know" but in this time of low interest rates you might be thinking that you've got a great deal since credit card interest rates are low. Wrong. Credit card companies have a cutoff as to how low their interest rates will go. So when interest rates are low for lending, that doesn't mean your credit card rate will be low as well.

May 11 - EnCana Corp., Canada's largest natural- gas producer, said it plans to split into two energy companies, one concentrating on gas and the other on oil in a bid to increase its value with crude at a record high. Shareholders will receive one share in each of the new companies. The standalone oil division will manage EnCana's oil- sands projects in Alberta and its U.S. refineries, while the second company will focus on natural-gas holdings, Calgary-based EnCana said today in a statement. Chief Executive Officer Randy Eresman, who will lead the gas company, is raising output from fields in the U.S., where drilling costs have risen less than in Canada. EnCana agreed in November to buy out its partner in an East Texas field for $2.55 billion, its largest acq

Renting a car is popular with various types of travelers. Business travelers used to be the mainstay of the car rental business. They need a rental for obvious reasons since they do a lot of travel and taking taxis can be expensive and inconvenient. In the 70s and 80s renting a car on vacation gained popularity and now it is a big part of the rental market. It is common to rent cars at your arrival airport so you can easily get to and from the airport and your destination. So what if you're going to a city with plenty of public transportation? While it may seem easy enough to take busses and subways, taking a vacation is a lot less stressful and more enjoyable if you rent a car. You'll be able to come and go as you please and you won't have to look for taxis. You can also visit areas outsi

NEW YORK - A dozen oil companies agreed to pay $423 million in cash plus clean-up costs to settle litigation over groundwater contamination from the gasoline additive, MTBE, lawyers representing public water utilities and public agencies in 17 states, told Reuters.   The settlement, filed in the US District Court in Manhattan, involves BP America Inc, Chevron Corp, ConocoPhillips, Shell Oil Co, Marathon Oil Corp, Venezuela's Citgo Petroleum Corp, Sunoco Inc and Valero Energy Corp, the newspaper said.   "The one big holdout was ExxonMobil Corp," said Robert Gordon, of Weitz and Luxenberg, one of the three lead lawyers for the plaintiffs.   "The most important thing here is not the money, "but that there is going to be treatment of the wells and the affected areas guar

The news of roll back in steel prices has pushed the car companies to re-work on the quantum of price hike. In the last week of April, Maruti had announced that it was considering a price hike but had not specified on the increase. Now, General Motors and Mahindra and Mahindra are also re-working on the quantum of increase in costs. The car companies were contemplating on increasing costs by Rs 4,000 to Rs 16,000. Steel forms a major component of car manufacturing and the slightest rise will result in a huge leap in overall costs. The rollback has brought a huge relief to car buyers particularly the small car buyers, for whom the slightest rise will add burden to the total expenditure. It could also give some more time to buyers who have missed the April deadline to go for cars now

ConocoPhillips, Shell, Marathon, Chevron and BP  are among about a dozen oil companies that will pay $423 million to settle lawsuits brought by water suppliers in 17 states over contamination from the gasoline additive MTBE. The suits claim the oil companies contaminated wells and underground aquifers across the country by adding methyl tertiary butyl ether, or MTBE, to gasoline as a way to reduce air pollution. They claim the oil companies hid information showing MTBE would cause "massive" contamination. The settlement was filed Wednesday with U.S. District Judge Shira Scheindlin in New York, who is presiding over the 153 settled lawsuits brought by municipalities. The six oil companies and refineries that didn't settle include Exxon Mobil Corp., the world's biggest publicly

Google (GOOG) defied skeptics—and the economic downturn—with a surprisingly strong showing that sent the stock soaring 20% the next day. More than anything, Google's continued prosperity is a testament to its ability to keep innovating, both in search and advertising operations and in new lines such as online office-productivity software. Many companies, says Chief Executive Eric Schmidt, can skirt downturns entirely by coming up with innovations that change the game in their industries—or create new ones. (When asked if Google's strategy would change as the economy heads into a likely recession, he replied: "What recession?") In a recent interview in a tiny meeting room next to his Mountain View (Calif.) office, Schmidt told BusinessWeek Silicon Valley Bureau Chief Robert D. Hof how

FDA just approved GlaxoSmithKline’s new drug Treximet for acute treatment of migraines in adults. So does that mean Treximet is a fabulous new breakthrough treatment for migraines? No. It is a combination of Imitrex (soon to be available as a generic) and naproxen sodium (commonly known as Aleve, available Over the Counter). How much would it cost a patient to take these 2 drugs separately? Naproxen sodium can be had for about 8 cents a pill. A single Aleve pill has 220 mg of naproxen sodium. There’s 500 mg of naproxen sodium in Treximet, so a patient would have to take about 2 1/4 Aleve pills to get to 500 mg. Since you can’t really take 1/4 of a pill, let’s assume most patients would take 2. 2 pills would give you 440 mg, so that’s pretty close to the 500 mg. Cost: 16 cents.

From: Carney warns rate relief will be slow to reach consumers Turmoil in global credit markets is hindering the Bank of Canada's efforts to reduce borrowing costs for individuals and companies. In its latest assessment of the economy, the central bank warned that even if it continues to lower its benchmark rate, rates lenders charge on mortgages and loans may rise. Commercial lenders are paying more to get credit themselves in markets that remain reluctant to share money, the Bank of Canada said in its Monetary Policy Report. Since the credit crisis kicked off last summer, banks have recovered only about three-quarters of their increased borrowing costs by charging higher rates to their customers. That's not likely to last, Governor Mark Carney said. "We do expect that to u
