    I bought some bank of america today... 5.33 % yield is a pretty good deal.... I don't have to worry about crappy management and a stock that hasn't moved in 5 years... and if it drops too much warren buffett's got my back :) Seems like a better deal at 47-48...

    I think it could hit 120 pretty easy... and it should go up when companies like apple report. I wouldn't be surprised if people ran it up to 120 in anticipation of earnings

    best way to play lack of electricity infrastructure?

    I used to work in the power industry... You can make easier money I guarantee you. No one knows who is going to be profitting in the next 10 years... the US could make a big move towards nuclear power or breakthroughs efficiency and price in solar could make it realistic to put it on lots of...

    I can't believe you took a small profit on garmin and then come back at me with citigroup! So far garmin's been the closest thing i've found to a free atm machine. It's paying out more than my day job. I'd rather play GRMN RIMM AAPL BIDU GOOG or VMW... that's where the action is at for...

    Super boring stock... It's funny to watch stocks like rimm grmn and appl double and citi hasn't moved in 5 years... it might be okay for a short trade

    APPLe is due for a big run

    iphone is just a tech toy... not that great of a practical phone. I crack up when I watch people using them... they have to wipe their screen every 20 seconds because it gets so smeary. Apple is good at making fashion products... but their technology isn't anything special. You can't replace...

    The stock was running up hill too fast... and it took a short breather... but I think it's gonna break out on earnings

    Buy google leaps b4 earnings

    $4,000 a share... I can't read that and not laugh. For google to go to 4k, their market cap would have to goto 1.2 trillion dollars making them 5 times more "valuable" than Microsoft (Microsoft has 5 times the profit). I guess that's what happens when you do "technical analysis" and throw...

    Why RIMM and AAPL are long term shorts

    What do you think a stock certificate is? Fractional ownership of a business. That's great that you have money tied up in a real business, but Apple is also a real business.

    Because, you'll be sitting there looking at the chart and over the long run there will be days when the fundamentals significantly affect the price of a stock on one of the days that you're holding a stock for "only" three days. Just because something "worked" before doesn't mean it's a good...

    Why RIMM and AAPL are long term shorts

    The fundamentals that are..... people are buying apple and rimm products. Look at Apple sales and Rimm's subscriber gains. Do you have a high degree of certainty that people won't like apple products or blackberrys in two years? Even if you somehow end up being right, it doesn't make any...

    Why RIMM and AAPL are long term shorts

    I agree Apple makes fad products that aren't very special... they have created fashion gadgets that a luxury. I don't think that is a winning business model in the long run... Blackberry has an excellent product. But it seems like someone else can come in and try to immitate and overpower...

    RIMM or not to RIMM

    Rimm is just insane... I'm jealous that I missed out... haha. If I see a pull back I will definitely consider buying in. I personally have a Treo 650... and for a few months my work gave me a black berry to use... but then the bastards took it away. The email on them blows everything else out...

    Beta is a statistical measure... it measures the correlation between two series of numbers. In this case it is the relationship between Garmin and the general Stock market. A beta of 1.0 means that if the market goes up 10%, then the stock would move up 10%. A beta of 2.0 means that if the...
