    Longs hope, Shorts fear

    If you do more research on a stock after you own it, to keep convincing yourself its a good position, than before you bought it, that's when you should get out.

    Closed End Fund Arbitrage

    Anyone doing any work with closed end funds that sell at steep discounts to NAVs? Look at this one, http://www.etfconnect.com/select/fundpages/other.asp?MFID=141336 It was selling at 11% discount several months ago. Do you short the top holdings or other similar CEFs or ETFs that are closer...

    CNBC's Strategy Lab

    CNBCs only strategy seems to be hire very attractive hosts and cheerlead for a bull market. That's just my observation, though.

    8/55 EMA Method

    I'm working on a theory about breakouts using the 8/55 period EMAs. From anecdotal evidence, it looks like that after a stock 8 day EMA breaks the 55 day EMA, there is an initial pullback, then rally in the original direction of the breakout. Has anyone else done any work with this? What exit...

    Mr 6 Seconds

    Did anyone else hear Becky Quick call her co-host "Mr 6 Seconds" today? I ask because I can't believe I actually heard it. It was probably the funniest thing I've ever heard on CNBC.

    Real Big Mess up on the DCR ETF...

    I realize that new ETFs take a while to get going, but UCR and DCR are different. They don't actually own the underlying security, in this case OIL. They supposedly funnel funds back and forth between them based on the price of oil and supposedly the sum of the two should add up to 120 or...

    Real Big Mess up on the DCR ETF...

    I really don't understand why UCR and DCR don't trade with more volume. You would think they would be more active. They usually have HUGE spreads as well throughout the day.

    The Dirty Truth About Sirius - Current Users Deactivating at 2x The Rate of New Users

    I have absolutely no problem with Howard. I used to listen, but it got repetitive. XM has baseball, SIRI doesn't. That's the reason I want to switch, not Howard.

    The Dirty Truth About Sirius - Current Users Deactivating at 2x The Rate of New Users

    I have Sirius, but I'm thinking of switching to XM for the MLB broadcasts. You just can't beat having every single baseball game at your fingertips. In hindsight, I think SIRI tied their wagon a little too tightly to the Stern horse. I never listen to his show, I mostly tune in to CNBC, ESPN...

    Oil- Unleaded Gas?

    Why would they care if they upset us? Its not like there's any way to avoid using their product in our cars. I don't think they really care about our feelings at all. :(
