all I know is that if we are keeping score in dollars, Warren is winning

Citi took the debt because they expect to be first in line for a piece of the $700B, and will hand a bunch of the liability over to the government

Thanks Einstein. Did you just switch on the news, or did you come up with these insights all by yourself?

The site is called EliteTrader, not NoviceTrader or TrainATrader. Yeh some of these guys give you a serving of attitude with their advice, so what? If you don't like it, join the $3000 club and pay someone for advice. I advise you to calm down. If the little jabs in this forum get your...

I watch INFY. It has had an steady march up for the last 4 months, but I think the uptrend may be coming to an end. Last week there was an analyst upgrade (Wachovia), but it did not go up, even though the market was up. I don't think its a good short or long right now, but it bears watching.

Getting consistent profits instead of trying for home runs comes from my stategy, not my weekly goals.

I set weekly and monthly goals, but its to stay motivated. I did the same thing when I was a runner. I signed up for races, even though I would never win. The race was a goal, and gave me daily motivation to train. My weekly and monthly goals are motivation to sit at my desk and do my...
