3M and Minnesota: The End of the Affair
Written By: Jeanne Roberts

Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing, or 3M (MMM - $78.50), is a Minnesota institution on the order of Milwaukee and beer. Founded in 1902 by a lawyer, a butcher and a locomotive engineer, the company set out to make sandpaper and, 23 years later, came up with a packaging revolution known as masking tape. Along the way, it also spawned an indigenous economy that employed thousands and represented a cultural paradigm of corporate-sponsored creativity which produced such nonpareils as Scotch tape and Post-it® Notes.

Neubert Top 15 Positions for March Month End 2008

This month's top 15 is full of financials and oil. I like to bottom fish, and this month it finally worked. My exposure to big bad oil is starting worry my wallet and my heart.

1. Lehman Brothers (LEH - $44.05): Now that more than three years have passed since I left Lehman Brothers I feel it is appropriate to disclose my position in the investment bank. I have to admit that this has not been a great quarter to own any investment bank, but I have a lot of confidence in Lehman management and think that they understand the risks inherent in liquidity that funding an investment bank requires. In other words, they are no Bear Stearns.
