I should've made a move on CHIP on Friday, but didn't want to sell any of my position to cover for it. What a mistake I made lol.

lutach 09.22.2009 02:33 PM

I should've held off on WAMUQ. I made some high risk buys and I hope it pays off. I'm going to sell the ones I've been messing around with and get more serious. I'll be going conservative and high risk at the same time. My plan still is to be at $100 million clean. If anyone has a hot stock that is bellow $1, let me know :lol:.

Ouchy, 30% loss today on wamuq, but you still had a great day.
Had a good day too and closed above $2M to take 3rd place Yeahhhhh!!!!

Bad thing is I'm running out of tricks. A lot of the stocks I like/follow are at a point I'm not sure I want to dump more into. Still think they have more room to grow, doesn't mean its a strong buy tho. A lot of easy gains have already been made. Going have to get a bit more careful as things grow.

Yeah WAMUQ gave up the run from yesterday, but I made out big time on it. The big surprise today was LEARQ, it came out of nowhere and now I have to decide if I should keep it or if I should sell it. I'm almost at a $1 million profit on RT and real soon I'll be re-organizing my positions. You're doing awesome. Right now the market is at a point where nobody knows what will really happen. Some people are saying to stay in the market and others are having doubts. Do you have any tips for little old me :lol:?

No way man. I'm getting lucky. I'm like anybody else out there who's just looking for that one hot pick. I only have one problem, something deep inside my head is telling me the market will give some gains back (Like a W), but I hope to be 100% wrong.

lutach 09.22.2009 08:18 PM

Some guy in rcgroups said the A123 IPO will be out later this week. I will be watching for it.

Finnster 09.22.2009 09:49 PM

A123, I've been waiting for that too. I'll have to pick some up regardless. :)

I'm wondering about a pullback too, but I think we are mostly good thru this month. Really everyone's felt a bit edgy since april since things have moved up from march lows. Couple dips, but no big pull back yet surprisingly.
I don't see a huge reason so far as all the data has generally been positive. Felt more bullish than I have all year (which may be a bad sign, idk lol.) I think there are some pushes to show some good gains for the Q and year end. We'll see what Oct and Nov brings. I don't see any reason we should have any massive dips unless secondary effects of the recession are unleashed (ie high inflation, commercial real estate, % interest rate hikes, big fall in $, end of Fed money, other worries out there.) I personally don't see anything coming anytime soon, but I really know nothing when it comes to these things (prolly the safest assumption imo.) I think Jan-Feb is going to go in the doldrums perhaps. After year end, but waiting for further direction on the new year. Hopefully we will just see slow and steady gains on out, but that's awfully optimistic and really you've got to be ready for anything. Who knows what news will come.

By quite a bit of good fortune and timing, my retirement accts and investment accts will have done pretty well this year. I'd really like to hold & build on them. In a way, the Great Recession has been a once in a lifetime opportunity for the fortunate, but I'm sure there plenty of surprises ahead.

It seems that the A123 IPO will have a price between $10-11.50 and it might be a hot stock.

Slow and steady growth will be good. There seems to be news of companies that will be BK sometime in the near future and that will play a big part of any big dips and that might cause a little panic which can become a big panic specially after what we saw. Good thing about the stock market is that you can bet on stocks when it goes down :lol:.

lutach 09.23.2009 04:04 PM

Man, I was happy at 1% gain, but then it went red. The big winner today was scarletboa. Use the buying power scarletboa.

lutach 09.24.2009 11:07 AM

So A123 stock is at $13.50 and I have no buying power at all. I'm also frustrated that I was planning on buying more BAYN at a very good price, but decided to sell the few shares I had and now look at it, it's above $3+. It could've been a good day if I had invested a few million in it at bellow the $2+ I paid for it. I hope the market comes back to green.

Edit: Goodness...Look at A123 (AONE) go. From $13.50 to $18.80+ and seems to be going higher lol. I guess people really like A123 lol. Too bad they only have 6 batteries so far and only 3 in production. I guess they forgot to add in one of the SEC Files that they own Enerland.

Finnster 09.24.2009 01:13 PM

Mine is getting hit pretty bad today too, bit on a downcycle, but no worries. No buying power at all tho. :(

AONE is rocking. I'll look at getting it once the excitement slows down.

Some profit taking I guess. I must have missed something yesterday as I went down almost 2000%. By the time I get some buying power again, AONE will be at a reasonable level I guess.

lutach 09.24.2009 07:22 PM

I just checked after hours and AONE is already down $0.40+.

Finnster 09.30.2009 02:02 PM

Haven't been looking at the game lately (until my picks swing back up to get buying power, there's no point...)

but, I saw AONE is on a bit of a tear today, last was ~$21.5 last time I saw. Wonder what it will do after the Q3 is over. Their earnings can't be too good, they are still losing $, and there should be some charges w. the IPO I would think. It was @ 18.5 yesterday, but I wonder how it will do over Oct. On the upside they raised over $400M on the IPO, so there should be some good things down the road.
