In a new shindig from openSermo, currently being called the Financial Fix, I talk about a slew of financial news. Highlights include Apple’s strong results, Amazon’s strong results, Yahoo’s strong results which don’t matter, Toyota selling a ton of cars, people not selling a ton of houses, Wall Street to loose 36,000 jobs; holy cow, and the Federal Reserve meeting next week.

Recently, we started releasing special promo videos to help generate interest in openSermo and our cause. We are calling them ‘Shorts‘. Any feedback is greatly appreciated! Here is out first, enjoy:
