The last few years have been great to me, as i was able to clobber the S&P500 many times in returns. But of course, you can't make a living trading the markets if you don't make great great returns. I'll try to give my readers trades that i think will make them money. However, you need to have money management skills, in order not to lose everything on a greedy or stupid trade. I may or may not already be in the trades i recommend. I may or may not trade the stocks i recommend. Due diligence is required on your part and the usual disclaimer that i am not responsible for your losses always apply. I have no affiliations with any broker/dealer and all posts are for educational purposes only.

YHOO poised for more gains.

YHOO is trading @ 24.60 right this moment.

The stock is rebounding. $26 in the short term shouldn't be hard.

XNN is a screaming BUY!! Got 5K filled today at my average buy-in of 1.75! Looks like some traders had some margin calls in other stocks that came due today and they were forced to liquidate their holdings in XNN. Someone elses loss is someone elses gain. Today's a great day to follow Warren Buffet's strategy, "buy when others are selling".

I am taking a break from mountain biking in Door County, Wisconsin where the temperature is 74. Back home in SW Missouri it's 103! To those that say the sky is falling, it doesn't when the volume struggles to reach the daily average! Now if this drop occured on volume of 9 million, that would be a different story. To my friend Rochestor, if the 'street knows' this would be occuring on much higher volume.

Well they are giving my dirty looks at the Sister Bay library for staying on-line for more than my 20 minute allotment. May try to get in on the conference call tomorrow if near a payphone. I am more interested in the 2Qtr 2009 call, tomorrows will still be positive future looking statements. Expect earnings to be around 560K. Good luck all even my impersonator friend!

XNN is going to go bankrupt. Only an idiot like Ted or Alok would get on a message board and try to pump it up to get people to come in and bail them out of a losing position.

Fundementally XNN is on very bad ground, most likely going BK. Not only that, but small cap stocks in general are doing very badly in this market.

You want the real steve's advice?

Get short XNN, and then when you're done, get short a little more.

VMW:

I gotta take back the Cramer the moron call on VMW going to $60. I thought he meant it will get to 60 tomorrow. He didn't specify a timeframe.

Yes, VMW will most certainly get to $60. Dunno when though.

I suggest you buy VMW on any dip and hold for at least a year. Remember the ipo RVBD last year? The stock tripled after i asked you to get in. Well, VMWare will be much more exciting and much bigger.

Getting VMW below 35 is a steal. Below $40 is nice.

Mon Aug 13, 08:18:00 PM EDT  
Blogger beanie11111 said...

If there is a tech stock i would try to grab on the long side, it would be VMW (VMware). No ifs ands or buts about it! I would sell all my tech holdings, with exception of GOOG, just to grab more of it.

(real Steve).. not really?
I think that PPI economic report , even though it’s a really hot report, that the market will see 0.2% ( inflation very under control), but that’s a deterrent to any interest rate cut, and so down goes the DOW...(?)
On a side note, the 200MA on DIA used to be 12,700, well since last week it’s moved to 12,770...so if DIA stays above 13,000 for the rest of the month, the 200MA will be at 13,000...someday...
AND no way does IWM go below, 74 this month.....
LOT OF RETAIL REPORTS THIS WEEK...SHLD 1.5 bil buy back and went up..then there’s M,JCP,HD,WMT,KSS

Beanie,

Not saying your wrong but I think vmw opens above 40 and sees 60 fast.I wouldnt buy there just thinking the hype runs it for awhile.
Also I dont really like OB stocks but MBKR.ob reports earnings on the 21st.Looking for positive eps as they are growing fast in the booming Canadian market.The old ceo from lending tree runs it.Only 6 million in the float,could fly.
Also I think your right about BIDU to 1000, before 2010 my guess.
Thanks for the great board.

"Once again, impersonator. Pretty sad. I haven't sold my LEND yet and I'm certainly not losing "my ass". Only down a few cents on my position.

LEND now down 9% today puts you down about 18% from the mid sixes, only need a 21% gain to break even from here.

Usually anyone who says they got "money to burn" ain't got money to burn. Its hard to see someone more full of shit than gosu, but I think you've done it.
