Have 3 friends...Two old roommates and one son in law. Two got into Berkeley and one into UCLA. To get into these places took great smarts. They all three dropped out. All three got their degrees at a state college...Did fine career wise afterwards. At the UCs they were smart...In their...

How about at 5 months stay at 5 lots for a year? You have a bird in the hand (your analytics & data science consulting biz). You don't want to have to move more money into your account if a perfect storm occurs... Or get out of the day trading...Do a buy and hold of great stocks. Find them...

Glad that you are getting centered. My two cents (since we have talked before). You might want to keep the lots low and slow 1-5 at this time. If a 2007-2009 or Feb 7-9th hit, you don't want to be shaking your head again saying "what have I done"!! We know those day are out there...We know a...

I do all the studying and my wife makes all the money!! I read and read. I present different options to my wife for her Roth IRA. She finds these great stocks (growing common sense companies) while I do more covered calls...And get my great stocks called away. She finds gems (a small growing...

Any insurance agent (series 6) can and do sell mutual funds. But what if you were the go to guy for IRAs, Roth IRAs, SEP IRAs, 401Ks. How best do I convert my IRA to a Roth IRA?? What if you knew China and Asia better than anyone in the office... Do NOT be the guy who gathers the information...

Get the Wall Street Journal delivered (yeah, I know old school). It will give you insight to the market in general. It covers ALL areas of the market...Just get it for a few months. So when a client (or future client) asks a general question (what are pork bellies or how do I play platinum?)...

Another crash today...This one with a police car!! On autopilot...It looks like the car is totaled... Not again. In California, the Laguna Beach PD tweeted on Tuesday, May 29, that a Tesla Inc. (TSLA - Get Report) sedan was on autopilot when it collided with a parked Laguna Beach Patrol Car...

Just thinking out loud...If there are any books about Warren Buffet it might be good. He would buy when everyone was bailing on a stock or industry. I would look at this closed end mutual fund Royce Value Trust (RVT). I would look at their top ten stocks...See what they invest in and why...

So the NTSB should not be concerned with a sedan that stops 7 feet farther than a Ford F150 Truck?? Both Car and Driver and CR came to the same conclusion...?? And they can come up with a "software" patch in a few days?? Do you really believe this?? Is this a Chevrolet Corvair or a Ford...

If you are following Tesla I'm sure you saw this... https://news.google.com/articles/CBMieWh0dHBzOi8vY2xlYW50ZWNobmljYS5jb20vMjAxOC8wNS8yMi90ZXNsYS1tb2RlbC0zLWdldHMtbm90LXJlY29tbWVuZGVkLXJhdGluZy1mcm9tLWNvbnN1bWVyLXJlcG9ydHMtdGVzbGEtZWxvbi1yZXNwb25kcy_SAQA?hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US:en The above...

"Take chip off the table...Take risk off the table...Diversification If you have 50% of your assets tied up in the company, something major could happen. A major lawsuit could wipe out the company; they were clubbing baby seals, selling infant formula in China, creating shoes that caused health...

In 2008 my wife and I walked into our old bank (that was ready to go under). We withdrew all our money from it...Checking, savings, safe deposit box. We drove it over to Wells Fargo. Got diddle squat for our money...Maybe .2%. Safety first for us. Our old bank went under...We didn't know...

I use to work at a Hershey plant in California years ago (subcontractor). I would see some of their inner workings. I use to own some of their stock...Sold it for a fair gain way back when. A few thing that I saw from the company. Even though the Hershey Trust sold some of their stock back...

Years ago I would hear about...Beware of triple witching hour. The 4 times per year when all options would have an expiration on that date. Now so many more stocks have weekly dates, monthly dates. Just wondering if these Fridays (and Saturdays) are as strong (for moving the market) as they...

I'm thinking cheap chicken...McDonalds Nuggets, KFC, school lunch programs. There will always be a market for that junk!! Also frozen chicken to China...Yeah, I know it's on thin ice with trade there. Christians, Muslims, Jews, agnostics, atheist eat this stuff. Throughout all of asia, latin...

I bought some earlier...It still looks cheap to me. What am I not seeing?? Is it the debt?? Too many shares outstanding? Is it because it's a boring/mature industry? Is it younger people are becoming vegetarians? Here are the stats...Any insight I would like to hear. PPC...Stock closed at...

I owned some a few years back...It stood still for a year. Got out of it. We know someone will win big on 3D printing...We just don't know who?? Will GE or Siemens buy one of these companies for pennies on the dollar when a winner comes forth? It still may be a few years out. Sorry, haven't...

Read before you enter college...

One fat finger here...Never again I hope. I ALWAYS double and triple check my orders now. I'm almost 63 years old...Make sure my judgment is sound when I put my orders in (NO AMBIEN)!! Put my order in for RGT, 1,000 share. Checked my order a few hours later...I had put in the order for...

I have 300 shares of BG...China is NOT buying US soy!! Also this company may be a buyout candidate sometime in the future...The future does not look to be now. I tried to do an all or none...Kept lowering the price. Then eliminated the all or none...Still wasn't grabbed. I kept lowering the...
