Bloomberg terminals and Bloomberg funding are in high demand among institutional investors and Wall Street traders. ” Bloomberg is not going anywhere,” hedge fund manager Willard S. Stern told shareholders in a recent conference.

He is not a Bloomberg supporter and thinks the company is overvalued. ” Bloomberg is a distraction,” he said. But why did Bloomberg become such a lightning rod for criticism and conflict within the financial services world?

One of Bloomberg’s first acts as mayor was to eliminate the financial markets’ bad guys. But even if it is unlikely that there would be stacks of the machines running around Wall Street, that does not mean the company does not have a major issue on its hand.

Last month, Bloomberg terminals and Bloomberg funding were exposed in news reports that the terminals store information on all of the trades that are performed by individual traders around the world. Bloomberg claims that this information does not compromise any of its customers’ privacy, but hedge fund managers disagree.

“Bloomberg can go on using their new position as a bully pulpit and trying to enforce whatever regulations they want from the exchanges,” said Robert Weiss, president of CFTC.

“Bloomberg terminals and Bloomberg funding are not going to improve Wall Street’s ability to do the job it is paid to do,” said Michael Collins, CMT. “They are simply a distraction from the real business at hand–namely, reducing the risk of trading into the hands of retail investors.”

The “Pandemic” may have originated in New York, but it is spreading quickly across the globe.

With media outlets like Fox News and CNN calling the latest financial crisis an economic epidemic, the world’s attention has been captured. The financial markets are now caught in a constant loop of stimulus and worry, with investors piling money into mutual funds and pension funds while running down the banks and issuing negative reports on the financial health of the American economy.

As panic sets in, more retail investors and high roll investment firms are pulling out of the stock market. The Panic/Food Shortage Syndrome could be exacerbated by Bloomberg terminals. Retailers who might benefit from Bloomberg terminals include those with brick and mortar operations.

However, even those who are online could see increased business as investors panic and the news begins to leak out. Bloomberg terminals may continue to attract attention as more business news comes out.

“Bloomberg terminals are simply another tool for Bloomberg to increase his power and influence over the financial services industry,” said Lance Lackner, Executive Vice President of brokerage advisory firm International Market Strategy. ”

Bloomberg has been attacking the discretionary gross value of all companies by focusing on value enhancement. He’s also made aggressive moves to take on higher interest income, reducing credit risk and increasing liquidity. This gives us an indication that Bloomberg is gearing up for a run at the company shares he covets.”

“Bloomberg is clearly gearing up for a battle with business news distribution channels such as Bloomberg TV and Bloomberg News to gain market dominance in digital advertising,” added Mustafa Mohamed, CEO of ZDNet.

“Bloomberg’s war with cable and broadband operators is expected to be a bruising experience as Bloomberg has already launched similar TV stations. Bloomberg terminals will only help sharpen Bloomberg’s focus on value-added advertising and hopefully deliver on his promise to “tell the people what they want to hear”.

Of course, as with any new business trend, this new battle will also have its fair share of winners and losers.

The disruptors who adopt this marketing strategy will most likely gain the edge over existing Bloomberg outlets while new players will sink their teeth into the cracks left by the incumbent news gatherers.

The Bloomberg terminal is a device that streams Bloomberg News to the laptop of a recipient’s computer. After installation, a person can access the news from any terminal in the world.

Since Bloomberg provides relevant financial data through its online news platform, a Bloomberg terminal allows someone to obtain this data from virtually any location where they are. The Bloomberg terminal connects to the Bloomberg network via a high speed Internet connection.

Bloomberg terminals are available at Bloomberg offices all around the world. However, in some countries, such as Singapore, the Bloomberg terminals are only provided to authorized business outlets. In such countries, Bloomberg terminals are offered to individual Bloomberg subscribers at a very low cost.

Bloomberg subscribers in foreign countries can gain access to the Bloomberg service by paying a small local charge.
