Insider Trading

At the risk of sounding like a washed-up Carrie Bradshaw - I don't know about you but my New Year's resolution is to stop buying silly shoes and invest in something solid. And by solid - I mean Miuccia Prada. Patrizio Bertelli - CEO and husband to Miuccia has apparently been hinting that the company will go public in 2008. With profits increasing a reported 63% in 2007 alone - ultimately it would probably equal a helluva lot more shoes.

I am of no help. I cannot stay away from silly shoes either. Still, that investment seems a solid one.

Aside: I once managed a boutique, a big one, and we had this stupid line about "an investment in fashion." This is the phrase deployed when the husband would carp about a sticker: HOW MUCH?

And there we'd stand, very coolly, raising our noses just so, and then: It's an investment in FASHION.

Sometimes Investment pieces are boring... :)
But I guess you can't go wrong with Miuccia's creations...
