    Closed at $22.89, and eighth off a 5+ year high with the aforementioned base behind it. . And............in an over-sold market. We'll call it a..............re-test.

    Sell CountryWide!!!

    Too bad I can't use crayons. Let's try this. Insider sales. No surprise, a sliver of capitalization, and performed in increments rather than dumped at once. Call it.........a............plan. . Sold points AGO. CEO's don't go on national media and undermine their own endeavors without...

    Sell CountryWide!!!

    The coolest of cool is GRACE under fire. Been under fire the last week or so. I'm on the surprise side, waiting to add at the opportune time. Have (14) open positions. This is the only one I write about on ET. Why? Nathan, who approached me. Finalizes the interchange, then comes back...

    Sell CountryWide!!!

    Quote from NathanGresham: Hey genius, I sold my Aug 27.50 puts today for an over 100% gain. Not bad for holding a week. I had a substantial number. Actually I was trying to get into another housing lender(you know those mortgage co.'s that used to exist). but I will wait untill tommorrow and...

    Sell CountryWide!!!

    Operative phrase is "options awarded". No cash outlay. I'd probably convert to cash too. That cash is available to buy a host of things. Including CFC back. As for a disgrace, pre-announced. Transacted in increments. $410 million? Let's see, multiply 593 million shares by $25 Once...

    Sell CountryWide!!!

    Not "worth" $3.50. PRICED at $3.50. An option is just that, an option to exercise. And more importantly, YOU didn't get it. Shall I quote? 100% after 5 days. 30 cent basis. You have a real need to be right, eh? As for tanking, intra-day, presently up 3.8% . Wuz 5ish. Did I say...

    What caused the '87 Crash?

    This is a trading site. Consequently, value, however it's defined or quantified, isn't in my lexicon. Apparently it's in yours. The entity most married to a security, day in , day out, perpetually probably isn't too concerned about "value" except as convenient/coincidental excuses to move...

    What caused the '87 Crash?

    A crash is an orchestrated event. In motion before the opening bell. Can you say gap? Volume, aka order flow, can be induced. Hmmm, replenish inventory? Can you make the distinction between fixed and floating supply? Most stock doesn't float, but it is marked to market...

    Buy Countrywide CFC

    Quite the mouth there behind the screen. Over-compensating for low self-esteem? Bad case of acne? Yep I STILL have my probe. Difficult to gauge a specialist's agenda. But ALL those shares (heavy volume) being sold (with the aid of the media) are going somewhere, and it isn't share...

    Buy Countrywide CFC

    Foremost, I'm WRONG. It's "clearly" cleared $30 Feel better? Good. I do appreciate YOUR concern over my capital. Like a guardian angel. But, what I have is a probe. Bought on extreme weakness. The intent is to add at the appropriate times. That's plural. To be on the same...

    Buy Countrywide CFC

    Why is it...............EVERY tick going across the tape, EVERY hour of EVERY day includes a buying element? Why? I'll be looking for an answer. Afterall, you came here on your own accord. Don't confuse that with a Honda...

    Sell CountryWide!!!

    I do believe it's "you're" rather than "your". "Substantial number" differs from "a few" which you first used. Safe to assume you've never exercised ONE contract yet a substantial number. Buying 4 point out of the money puts 3 weeks from expiration for chump change premium isn't acumen...

    Breakout Massive Base ELON Buy Me!

    Let's see, a guy that was in 5 points too late, out 4 points too soon (thus far) wants to give some advice. Wow, what a good Some-ar-i-tun!

    Sell CountryWide!!!

    Bought my first stock in 1968. Been eating my own cooking since 1983. Paid some tuition. Paid some taxes. I have socks older than you. Literally. Nice Sweedish wool ones purchased in 1976. Comfy. Believe? I'm only concerned with the PRICE of a paper negotiable financial instrument...

    Buy Countrywide CFC

    $30 ish, emphasis is on ish, is a magnet. You'll note I guessed on the pre-announced selling before I learned today, inside sales were "pre-arranged". Sliver relative to float. Now.............the sailient point: NO CEO, of any company, is going to go on nationwide media, to sing woe...

    Sell CountryWide!!!

    For someone that purportedly "makes a living" from trading WHY is it you come across as a 12 year old? "Some dope buys" You mean like "a few" 3 point OTM puts for chump change with 3 weeks to expiration? Pertaining to the stock, every tick has a buying component. I personally don't...

    A bad week

    Care to explain how a PAPER loss differs from a loss? Better yet, how 'bout how amateurs count their paper gains (often pounding their chests about it) but disregard their paper losses (when they're both essentially the same thing------------an unbooked move AWAY from a basis)? Secondly...

    shorting stocks, who loses?

    It's getting thick in here (again). I think I need goggles. The fascination with short selling is itself ..............fascinating. The greed of the shorts, the paranoia and scapegoats of the longs., the misconceptions, old wives tales, etc. Pure psychology lessons. Mousehouse...

    Buy Countrywide CFC

    Like mad? CFC has 593 MILLION shares outstanding. Average volume presently running 17 MILLION per day. About 2.7 MILLION shares per hour. In contrast aggregate insider selling about 200,000 per WEEK. Furthermore, if this is consistent in both size and frequency, quite possibly...
