The podcast continues by laying out the significance of the latest skirmish between Apple Inc. (AAPL) and Eastman Kodak Co. (EKDKQ) The podcast closes by using James River Coal Co. as the focal point for an analysis of the coal industry and whether there may be a string of bankruptcies in upcoming years.
