    Fifth Third Bank Nasdaq FTIB

    What do you think? Possible M&A target from what I am hearing from some money managers. Speculative call buying is way up. FTIB volume has been three times the norm? Maybe two and a half. Najarian from Fast Money thinks it's going to be bought, and bought soon. What you think?

    simple question about a money market mutual fund

    I agree! Btw, you calculating the taxable yield at 1.521% ? Again, with the ultra short time horizon, I agree with this. Especially if in the top brackets! Good one! I do this with my clients $ as we allocate it. It sits in a muni money market account until we move it into the portfolio.

    daytrader loses it all.

    I've known the Chinese to really do strange things with their money. It's sad that the idiot got his parents retirement money involved. However, they should have known better, so I can't feel sorry for them either. He and his family thought he had found the "holy grail" of easy money. They...

    Help for yet another newbie

    Yes, a 150% return. Not going to happen. As far any other advice, I would recommend you get with Don Bright (he's on this board), or Curtis Faith for guidance. Don has an academy, and Curtis has a friend he may refer you to. They're going to have helpful guidance for you, without all of the...

    Help for yet another newbie

    There's no way you're going to pull $3,000 per week, each year in income with $100,000 in the markets. You are going go need a lot more for that kind of an income goal.

    Help for yet another newbie

    Yes, please elaborate. No one's going to beat you up too bad, if at all. Also, if you're making over 100M per year, as you are now, you are accustomed to that income. Therefore, I think you need a large account if you're going to trade. Have that accumulated before jumping out of the job...

    Erin Burnette from CNBC

    I appreciate that! They understand it's a long-term strategy we have, and most know it. It's the wealtiers one's who watch CNBC, and panic off the financial porn that's mostly garbage. I may send a few back to mother Merrill! LOL!!!

    Erin Burnette from CNBC

    I appreciate it bro! I guess I can handle being down 2% versus what we ended the week with. 4% down? Not sure. After watching thirty minutes of Kudlow, I got ill with him, and turned off the financial porn on CNBC.

    Erin Burnette from CNBC

    LOL!!! I wouldn't do that. But wouldn't mind running to her at a nice club in NY. I bet that's pure high maintenance all the way! You'd probably want to buy contracts on gold as a hedge against future price increases just to keep her in jewelry! LOL!!

    Overwhelming Majority Of Americans Support Gov't Health Care Even If Taxes Rise

    If we get Hillary, or some other Dumocrat (I spelled that correctly), I can smell a disaster in the health sector thanks to their Communist agenda's!:mad: I despise government cramming their lost agenda's down my throat, and so should you! Especially Communist sh*t like they're posied to...

    Abby J. Cohen: Stocks underpriced, Value everywhere

    Got a friend at Goldman. He told me "you've got to pick up some amgn. Their earnings were off .03 cents, and it's beaten down ready to go back up to the $80's." Well, well! I had a client buy amgn at $72, and it's now in the low 60's!! Argh!!! I'm sure time will tell, but I'll not give the...

    CNBC Pulling Out Kudlow At Every Opportunity to Talk Up The Economy

    He's got some wild suits, and I would love to know how much $ has been spent on them, not to mention any coke. LOL!! I could probably buy that Ferrari 360 Modena I've always wanted if I had dollar for dollar what $ he has in clothing. Lol!

    I need some guidance on a career in trading...

    I almost forgot. If you go into a retail wirehouse, firm, etc., and want to sell ind. equities, you will go broke faster than you'll imagine! The days of making $5,000/day back in the early 80's selling, and buying stocks is gone, gone, gone. For example, the average ind stock trade...
