EBay results bolstered by newer businesses
NEW YORK: EBay posted better-than-expected profit in the first quarter as several of its newer businesses compensated for disappointing results in its mainstay auction service. The faster-growing units include shopping.com, a price comparison site; some classified listing sites; a service to let online merchants accept credit cards; and Skype, the online voice chat service. "We are on track with our well-crafted portfolio," Meg Whitman, eBay's chief executive, said in an interview after the earnings report Wednesday. The results sent eBay's stock up about 3 percent in after-hours trading. Overall, the company earned $377 million in the first quarter, up 52 percent from a year earlier. Excluding charges related to stock-based compensation and some other items, the company earned 33 cents a share, above the 29 cents that analysts had predicted.

Bidding season
It's not often that a familiar piece of Americana goes up for sale, like one of the presidents on Mount Rushmore or maybe the Lincoln Tunnel.
But with yesterday's announcement of the sale of Tribune Co. - primarily a media business that counts among its holdings this newspaper - those beloved Chicago Cubbies, poster urchins for the downtrodden, are apparently headed for eBay.

Artists drive a hard bargain now
KOLKATA: Pricing of artworks has become a crucial factor in today's evolving Indian art market. Of late, one has been noticing a resistance, especially to paintings, at the highest levels. Even at the middle level, prices seem to be blowing out of proportion. Although, buyers still appear to be lapping up works at price points which are below the high-end prices. "Anyone buying art wonders about the functionaries who decide the price of the piece. The artists of the earlier times like the Tagores or Nandalal Bose used to gift their paintings because they were shy of mentioning a price for their works. Artist Kshitin Majumdar was taken aback when a painting of his was sold for Rs 5,000 by Chintamoni Kar to the Indian Museum. He was expecting a fraction of the price and needed the money for medical treatment.
