    Anyone been successful with Generic?

    I haven't made up my mind. I still have not seen a post that some is doing well with Generic or was successful and then moved up the ladder somewhere else. I didn't intend this post to be an arguement of a deal I haven't even worked out. The locking up the deposit for a year is a good...

    Anyone been successful with Generic?

    OK. Here's my line of thinking and maybe I'm 100% totally wrong here: I'm not a newbie to the market, but I know I still have a lot to learn. By giving up some equity in my profit to the office manager, wouldn't he have a vested interest in seeing me doing well and not being another idiot...

    Anyone been successful with Generic?

    After success in getting back into the market in April after taking a leave in Jan 01, I'm thinking about moving from my retail account to a Prop trading firm. Generic has made me a rough offer. I haven't gotten into the fine details yet. Basically, it's 5k or 10k down for control of 250k...

    Anyone else playing TMTA today?

    TMTA is paid that. The engineers get about half that in salary in benefits. It's all in the conference call. That rate is not unheard of for the highly skilled work they do. I also think the contracts can keep coming and won't end in a month, but I can't say that for certain. I'm...

    Anyone else playing TMTA today?

    Not the current fiscal year but this quarter and the next three was where I was going. Just 4 quarters in a row. $0.16 was rough. When they actually file the quarterly, we'll be able to go through that and compare to the statements made in the conference call to get a better idea of where...

    Anyone else playing TMTA today?

    I changed my mind on this company after listening to the Moores & Cabot presentation and left the thousand shares I had on the table. Didn't sell a single share. Yeah, I know, you don't turn a trade into an investment, but after really reading and understanding the story, my mindset changed...

    Anyone else playing TMTA today?

    Just curious. Stock was on the move in afterhours, but seems to have pulled back now that the market's open: http://biz.yahoo.com/bizj/050810/1147551.html?.v=1 I've got a small position that I plan on exiting before the PM.

    Ex-Engineer Turn Trader

    I enjoyed the two matierals engineering courses I took, but I guess I'm weird like that. One was just a hundred level MatE course and the other was a graduate level "Introduction to Composite Materials" course. If not making money wasn't a problem, I'd still be in school going after another...

    I got an engineering degree from a business school, does that count? Probably would have done materials or mechanical if I was going for a pure engineering major.

    Global Carbon Fiber Shortage and I want to PROFIT off of it

    Just an update and a question.. . ALDA is up about 40% since I started the thread and I have recently exited the position. I will get back in at some point as it is a good company with room to grow. CYT is up about 10%. HXL has been up and down. I do have a nice gain on the block I picked...

    Global Carbon Fiber Shortage and I want to PROFIT off of it

    I don't think you're going to see a mitsubishi, toho or a toray have anywhere near the kinds of moves that these guys will have and that really is everyone in this market.
