Is anyone playing AMZN today? If so, are you going long or short? Thanks.

Can someone direct me to a website that would provide honest and fair commentary regarding inter-day market movements? I try to use marketwatch, but they sometimes frustrate me with their bias coverage (at least, bias to me!). I want something that would be free and would have quick...

I am curious to gauge opinions on the issue that bad news has been priced in for a while. It seems everytime the past week or two some negative economic news or possible earnings shortcoming arises, it's is brushed off. Stocks have been trading around even the past week, even with much...

Finally the FED makes a better decision. .75 is better than 1%.

Ha, shave his beard! Good call. 100 basis points. Market rises on the news and ends the day around +300 on the Dow. Tomorrow another good day with V IPO and then trend downward toward the end of the week. Just my two cents.

Western, agreed. And let me commend you on your excellent earlier post. Nice job.

What in the world happened with BSC? Can someone shed some light on this for me? Thanks.

cr, YES. i would also be a little wary depending on your time frame. if we get a 50 pt cut, then a small bounce. a 75 and we get a 200 pt rally. but i would sell into either. but if you are short term, just be prudent of this cut. just my .02

jwcapital, I share your sentiments. I'm currently with Scottrade and although they have been a reliable broker for me, their options commissions are killing me. So I'm looking for someone else too. I've looked at ThinkorSwim and IB. I haven't loved either, but I'll probably end up with...

Can someone explain to me what this move does today and it's ramifications for markets? We know the consumer is toast, housing prices are plummeting, the dollar is dead, etc., so what about the Fed's move today caused this spike in the markets? Thanks.

After the Dow being off around 1K points over the past week to ten days, a rally (though Fed induced) was to be expected. Anyone shorting heavy here or waiting for some more positive movement?

I'm short AMZN. It has dropped 35% from it's recent 52 week high, but I still think it can go down another 10-15% if not more. I just can't justify a tech consumer play with a 60 P/E in these kind of environments. I also like FXP and SDS. Good luck.
