Rambus, Inc. (RMBS) B. Riley & Co. 2013 Annual Investor Conference May 22, 2013 05:00 pm ET Executives Ron Black – President & Chief Executive Officer Analysts Presentation Host It’s my great pleasure to have Rambus back at our conference. For those that don’t know we used to have official coverage on Rambus in my first go around here on the sell side at B. Riley. And the company is really undergoing a remarkable transformation right now engineered by the new CEO Ron Black and the rest of the Management Team and Board. We also have CFO Satish Rishi in the audience. And finally the company’s moving away from being so confrontational with some of the companies that would like to collaborate with them and it’s also developing some interesting products that are coming to parket this year. So with that, please Ron. Ron Black Thanks, Mike. So just a

For the vast majority of people in the United States, the name Tim Hortons (THI) means absolutely nothing. However, talk to a Canadian and if they aren't smitten with the chain, their family, friends and neighbors probably are. THI develops and franchises restaurants serving coffee, espresso, cappuccino and other specialty beverages along with donuts/baked goods, Paninis, soups, sandwiches and other delectable fare. Founded in 1964, as of December 31st, 2012, THI owns or franchises 4,264 restaurants: 3,436 in Canada, 804 in the U.S. and 24 in the Gulf Cooperation Council (the political/economic union of countries primarily on the Arabian Peninsula).While THI is a dominant player in its home market, with one restaurant for every 10,000 Canadians (McDonald's (MCD) by comparison has one restaurant for every 24,500 Canadians), the company has experienced trouble translating this success south of the border. By the company's own estimates, Canadian expansion is near its

For those just learning about the drug, Belviq is an FDA-approved weight loss aid developed by Arena Pharmaceuticals (ARNA). Its intended benefit to patients is to reduce the user's appetite, thus leading the user to consume less calories and ultimately lose weight.One issue that will have great importance to Arena and the success of Belviq is whether doctors are legally permitted to prescribe Belviq for off label uses (uses intended for conditions other than weight loss). The answer to this question should have much bearing on the amount of Belviq prescriptions that will be written, at least in the short term.As a Plaintiff's attorney, I often see the public throwing around words such as "liability," "negligence," and "causation" in ways that sometimes make my colleagues and I chuckle but often make us extremely concerned. Daily I get phone calls from potential clients, many of whom tell me stories

Executive Summary Market lore and disclaimers from ETF companies warn investors to stay away from double reverse ETFs for trades longer than a few days. This caution is unnecessary for investors using stock ETFs to be short the Japanese yen. During the last 140 days of the yen's current declining trend, being short via YCS was twice as lucrative as using FXY. If the yen's declining trend continues, YCS should continue to be the vehicle of choice for stock investors. Introduction Shorting the yen has gotten increasingly popular, especially since Japan elected the Abe Government. The Bank of Japan, urged on by the Abe Government, has set out to double the monetary base by doing $80 million in Quantitative Easing (QE) per month. The yen has declined in value against the dollar as a result. The Government of Japan obviously considers the declining yen, a predictable result of their QE
