The Wednesday Report

Welcome to The Wednesday Report. Orignially, this weekly journal was published on the web from 2000-2001 (I think) and covered various aspects of the online auction and e-commerce business. One of the most popular features was "auction counts" for eBay and many other sites. With recent changes in the onine landscape, especially on eBay, I've decided to resurrect The Wednesday Report with current eBay counts. I'll be adding more, such as my proprietary Misery News Index in the near future. Thanks, Rick Gagliano, Publisher 6/18/08: Inflation Still #1 Concern in Misery News 6/11/08: Inflation, Unemployment Elevate Misery News Index 6/4/08: Misery News Index Still Elevated, But Off Recent High 5/28/08: Inflation, Unemployment, Homeless Push Misery News Index to Highest Ever Level Analysis Archive
