State-Run 529 College-Savings Plans Continue to Drive Down Costs

January 15, 2012 admin Business 2011


(PRWEB) January 13, 2012

Savingforcollege.com, an independent source of information, data, and rankings of 529 college-savings plans, has found continuing decreases in fees and expenses among the increasingly-popular investment programs. The website?s 529 Fee Study, updated as of January 1, 2012, shows that fully half (24) of the 48 direct-sold 529 plans that are open to residents of any state have at least one investment option with total 10-year costs below $ 500 on a $ 10,000 initial investment that achieves 5 percent annual growth.

The 529 plans in Virginia (VEST), California (ScholarShare), Ohio (CollegeAdvantage), and Utah (UESP) currently offer the lowest-cost 529 investment options among nationally-available plans, with each having at least one stock- or bond-based option with 10-year costs totaling less than $ 300 on a $ 10,000 initial investment.

?The race toward lower fees began in 2003 and has accelerated in recent years,? according to Joseph Hurley, founder of Savingforcollege.com and CEO of parent company JFH Innovative LLC. ?Many states have pushed for and achieved manager fee reductions through competitive bidding practices, and by switching to index funds in plan investment portfolios.?

Savingforcollege.com?s 529 Fee Study examines all direct-sold 529 savings plans, with data compiled from the fee tables that are part of the official program disclosures. (Broker-sold 529 plans generally have much more complex fee structures and are not part of the study.) Costs include all account maintenance fees and underlying fund expense ratios. The “no-fee” bank CD options and insurance-backed guaranteed options found in several of the 529 plans are excluded from the study.

A small number of states restrict enrollment in their 529 plans to state residents. For example, Louisiana maintains the lowest-cost option of any 529 savings plan, but the plan is available only to Louisiana residents.

Fees and expenses can have a significant impact on a college-savings fund. If the annual return of the underlying investments in Plan A is 7 percent, and the plan manager charges a fee of 20 basis points, or 0.2 percent, an investment of $ 5,000 today will grow to be worth $ 16,340 in 18 years. If Plan B uses the same underlying investments, but charges a management fee of 40 basis points, that same $ 5,000 investment will grow to $ 15,798, or $ 542 (3.4 percent) less than Plan A. The difference can be even larger if Plan A uses less-expensive underlying investments (e.g., index funds) than Plan B.

However, fees should not be the only factor in selecting a 529 plan. The more important figure is the net performance of your 529 account after all costs. State tax and other benefits are also important factors.

529 Fee Study (54 Plans)

10-year costs on $ 10,000 investment

Lowest cost option – Highest cost option

Louisiana: START Saving Program $ 0 – $ 567

Rhode Island: CollegeBoundfund (Direct-sold, Alternative RI) $ 77 – $ 1,556

Virginia: Virginia Education Savings Trust (VEST) $ 117 – $ 1,172

California: The ScholarShare College Savings Plan $ 230 – $ 776

Ohio: Ohio CollegeAdvantage 529 Savings Plan $ 243 – $ 1271

Utah: Utah Educational Savings Plan (UESP) $ 262 – $ 757

Leading Financial Newsletter Profit Confidential Predicts Recession this Year for Two Big Eurozone Countries

January 11, 2012 admin Business 2011


New York, NY (PRWEB) January 10, 2012

Two big eurozone countries are headed back into a recession this year, according to Michael Lombardi, lead contributor to popular financial newsletter Profit Confidential. Spain, the eurozone?s fourth largest economy, and Italy, the third largest eurozone economy, will be in a recession in the first half of 2012.

?Spain has the highest unemployment rate in the eurozone at a staggering 21.5% and Italian consumer confidence sits at its lowest level in 16 years,? says Lombardi.

?Italy and Spain cannot fall back into recession without affecting the other 17 member countries. A big risk is France, the second largest eurozone member, falling into a recession.?

Lombardi points out that the trouble will cross the ocean and have an effect on North America. ?Banks in the United States have major exposure to eurozone countries. The risks that weak, or defaulting, eurozone countries represent are high for large American banks,? says Lombardi.

While there has been plenty of talk regarding fixing the eurozone countries with the largest debt exposure, Lombardi points out that there has been no execution. ?Germany continues to balk at idea of the European Central Bank (ECB) printing more money,? says Lombardi.

Lombardi is also critical of the new, severe Spanish and Italian austerity measures. Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti secured final passage on austerity measures that will put a tax on luxury goods. ?This will increase gas prices, and create a new tax on primary residences. Sure, the austerity measures bring down government debt, but they also stifle consumer spending further,? Lombardi writes in Profit Confidential.

Profit Confidential, which has been published for over a decade now, has been widely recognized as predicting five major economic events over the past 10 years. In 2002, Profit Confidential started advising its readers to buy gold-related investments when gold traded under $ 300 an ounce. In 2006, it ?begged? its readers to get out of the housing market…before it plunged.

Profit Confidential was among the first (back in late 2006) to predict that the U.S. economy would be in a recession by late 2007. The daily e-letter correctly predicted the crash in the stock market of 2008 and early 2009. And Profit Confidential turned bullish on stocks in March of 2009 and rode the bear market rally from a Dow Jones Industrial Average of 6,440 on March 9, 2009, to 12,876 on May 2, 2011, a gain of 99%.

World Vision International Interviewed on the Sharon Kleyne Hour Power of Water

January 8, 2012 admin Business 2011


Grants Pass, OR (PRWEB) January 06, 2012

Sharon Kleyne, host of the Sharon Kleyne Hour Power of Water syndicated radio talk show, recently interviewed Traci Coker of the World Vision Gift Catalogue regarding the catalogue’s wide selection of life-changing gifts that donors may give to impoverished families and children in developing countries, to improve heath and enrich lives.

World Vision representatives have previously appeared on the show several times and reflect Sharon Kleyne’s message about proactive self-help. World Vision also reflects the mission of the charity Mrs. Kleyne founded, the Save-a-Child’s Life Foundation. The interview with Traci Coker may be heard on-demand on World Talk Radio, Voice America, Green Talk Network, Apple iTunes and Twitter.

Traci Coker has been with World Vision International for four years, and works at their world headquarters in Federal Way, Washington, where they have been for over 60 years.

Sharon Kleyne and Ms. Coker agreed that the primary need in developing or third world countries is access to safe and abundant water. Water releases women and children to other activities besides carrying water and drastically reduces infant and child mortality, and preventable blindness. In India, according to Ms. Coker, 4,000 children a day die from dehydration and sanitation diseases, all of which are preventable. Many more are blinded or disabled.

The catalogue began in 1996 as a way to help children, their families and orphans. The gift of a goat ($ 25), which requires very little maintenance, can provide up to 16 cups of milk a day to feed an undernourished child, with milk left over to sell in the marketplace.

Other gifts include: cows, chickens, ducks, art supplies, water, water wells, bed nets, seeds, water pumps, school books, clothing, bicycles, stocking for a fish pond, Bibles, computers, small business loans, and yes?toys.

It is possible to purchase part of a larger gift, such as a tractor.

According to Traci Coker, these are all the same gift ? the gift of hope, opportunity and self-worth.

Everyone who gives a gift receives a small token such as a Christmas ornament, identifying them as a World Vision donor.

World Vision International operates in over 100 countries. When they become involved in assisting a community, they remain for at least 15 years and set up local committees to develop indigenous leaders. They also work with other agencies and organizations to help the community develop and maintain safe water wells, schools, community projects, etc.

Sharon Kleyne Hour Power of Water is sponsored by Bio-Logic Aqua Research, whose Nature’s Tears

Leading Financial Newsletter Profit Confidential Reveals Possible Winner of the RIM vs. Apple Battle

January 2, 2012 admin Business 2011


New York, NY (PRWEB) December 30, 2011

Profit Confidential has put its two cents in regarding the technology battle between Research In Motion (a.k.a. RIM) and Apple. ?The reality is that the ?BlackBerry? no longer has that glamour it once entailed. The product is seen as archaic and old,? says George Leong, contributor for Profit Confidential, a popular financial e-newsletter.

According to Profit Confidential, Research In Motion?s stock plummeted over 10% after earnings in December to levels not witnessed since the first week of January 2004, while estimates are for Apple to continue revenue growth for the next two years at rates of 28.9% and 15.0%, respectively.

Leong reports that, according to RIM?s earning release in the third quarter, revenues fell six percent year-over-year to $ 5.2 billion. The company shipped about 14.1 million BlackBerry smartphones and 150,000 ?BlackBerry PlayBook? tablets, which have proved to be a massive disappointment. Comparatively, Apple sold 11.12 million ?iPads? in its fiscal fourth quarter.

In recent news reported in Profit Confidential, RIM also announced that it would have to delay the launch of its new line of ?BlackBerry 10? smartphones until late 2012. Leong writes, ?I?m not talking of a minor incident here, but a major gaff for a company trying to convince consumers and investors that it has a bright future and that they should trust the company. Failing to deliver a new product by months is not acceptable.?

Leong believes that RIM needs fresh ideas and a change of ownership or it could face possible extinction. ?And, unless RIM can make its products more desirable, it may endure a slow death.?

?For the time being, I would long Apple and avoid RIM. RIM is tempting as a short candidate, but given its arsenal of patents, the company could be a takeover target,? says Leong.

Profit Confidential, which has been published for over a decade now, has been widely recognized as predicting five major economic events over the past 10 years. In 2002, Profit Confidential started advising its readers to buy gold-related investments when gold traded under $ 300 an ounce.

Gilman Law LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is actively investigating shareholder allegations that Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc. (?PacBio? or the ?Company?) and certain of its officers and directors knowingly, or with severe recklessness, made materially misleading statements and/or failed to disclose information necessary to make various statements not materially misleading in violation of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Based in Menlo Park, California, PacBio is a development stage company that develops, manufactures and markets an integrated platform for genetic analysis. The Company engages in commercializing a platform, single molecule, real-time technology (SMRT) for the detection of biological events.

The PacBio shareholder class action lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California alleges that during the Class Period, the Company materially misled the investing public by failing to disclose material adverse facts regarding the Company?s overall operational and financial condition that were caused by significant problems with its third generation human genome sequencing technology. The Complaint further alleges that as a result of these materially false and misleading statements, PacBio?s common stock traded at artificially-inflated prices during the Class Period.

Gilman Law LLP Is Actively Investigating A Class Action Lawsuit On Behalf of Investors of Primo Water Corporation

December 28, 2011 admin Business 2011


Naples, FL (PRWEB) December 26, 2011

Gilman Law LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is actively investigating shareholder allegations that Primo Water Corporation (?Primo Water? or the ?Company?) and certain of its officers and directors made materially false and misleading statements or failed to disclose material information related to the company?s business and operations in violation of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10-5 promulgated thereunder.

Shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired the stock of Primo Water in or traceable to the Company?s initial public offering on or about November 4, 2010 (the ?IPO?) and the Company?s offering of common stock on or about June 17, 2011 (collectively, the ?Offerings?), as well as purchasers of the Company?s common stock between November 4, 2010 and August 10, 2011, inclusive (the ?Class Period?) and either lost money on the transaction or still hold the shares may contact Gilman Law LLP Toll Free 888-252-0048 by January 31, 2012 to discuss your rights, including as to recovery of your losses or to obtain additional information.

Primo Water, through its subsidiaries, provides multi-gallon purified bottled water, self-serve filtered drinking water, and water dispensers in the United States and Canada. The Primo Water shareholder class action lawsuit alleges that during the Class Period, the Company failed to disclose that neither demand nor sales of the Company?s products were as robust as represented and stores owned by the Company?s largest retail customers did not carry the Company?s products so the Company was not generating any revenue from those locations. Shareholders also allege that the Company?s growth and business prospects were heavily dependent upon the ability of the Company?s two largest customers to sell products from other, unrelated companies before those customers would order products from Primo Water. In addition, the Complaint alleges that Primo Water failed to disclosure that the Company?s primary retail customers would not be in position to order any of the Company?s products until after those retail customers cleared out other inventory sitting on their shelves, including inventory related to products sold by competitors to the Company. The Complaint further alleges that the Company?s largest retail customers had delayed promotions of the Company?s products, which negatively impacted the Company?s sales. Thus, according to the Complaint, the Company?s growth rate had slowed and would be slower for the rest of 2011, if not beyond; and the Company would not meet the financial guidance it provided to investors. dockets.justia.com/docket/north-carolina/ncmdce/1:2011cv01068/58401/ Case No: 2011-cv-01068.

Further, according to the Complaint, on August 10, 2011, before the stock market opened, the Company issued a press release announcing its financial results for the second quarter of 2011 wherein it reported a net loss of $ 2 million. Primo Water also revised its financial projections downward for the third and fourth quarters of 2011. As a result of this news, Primo Water?s shares dropped 61% from the previous day?s close of $ 13.92 per share, to close at $ 5.40 per share on August 10, 2011, on very heavy trading volume.

Primo Water shareholders who are members of the Class must contact Gilman Law LLP no later than January 31, 2012 if they wish to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the class action lawsuit. While share in any recovery is not affected by lead plaintiff status, that individual will act on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation, including determining whether and how much of a settlement to accept in the lawsuit. The lead plaintiff will be selected by the Court among applicants claiming the largest loss from investment in Primo Water during the class period.
