Rooms With a View
If you're daydreaming about that perfect summer vacation, take a trip with this week's Happy Hour.
To help with your vacation planning, Happy Hour co-hosts Chris Edmonds and Eric Gillin chat with Janet Groene, author of
Caribbean Guide
, a guide to every hideaway on islands from Aruba to the Virgin Islands. Groene offers the best deals for couples, families and for those looking for an out-of-the-way adventure just hours from the Florida coast.
And you won't want to miss her discussion of the Caribbean's best concoction -- an all-inclusive resort where Barbados Rum and gourmet cuisine flow freely on sun-drenched beaches.
On a more serious note, Chris and Eric also check in to the lodging sector with Steve Burton, senior analyst at CRA Real Estate Securities, a large real estate investment manager and a member of
TheStreet.com
Real Estate Roundtable. Burton discusses the resilience of hotel and casino stocks as he searches for value in what he calls the seventh inning of the lodging cycle. Plus, don't miss his stock picks, including an on-again, off-again merger that may be on again.
Also, in the weekly markets roundtable, Tony Dwyer of Kirlin Securities and Ted Bridges of Bridges Investment Counsel offer their takes on the skittish market, corporate earnings, the economy and whether or not the housing stocks can keep building value for shareholders.
The fun begins at 5 p.m. EDT. To tune in, click on the Happy Hour logo at the top of
