    Computer problem, Malware, Virus...

    I use MBAM Spybot and Regseeker regularly. And Kapersky runs all the time I don't think any 1 protection device can catch everything so I try to use a variety so it remains healthy. Do you use anything for your smartphone, especially for those annoying popups ?

    AMZN: the stock and the company in 10 years.

    I think it is a good stock but their margins are slim. I order things (mostly books and small items) from them every 2,3 months and I wonder how they make a profit. I think that they need to expand past online retailing and try something else that would encourage people to use their site...

    Computer problem, Malware, Virus...

    That sounds like an advertisement.......Call Now !...:) Does anyone hear use any apps for popups or any virus protection on their smartphones? Sometimes when I am online I get a popup advertising and when I try to X out of it, I still manage to hit the advertising, it pops up, then I have to...

    How could you survive the collapse of the economy?

    I have read a few things about EMP bombs. It will only take 5,6 of them to cover the entire U.S. and Canada. They will take out the electrical grid and many other electrical items like water distribution plants, cars, HVAC systems, planes in the air, radar, nuclear plants, ....the list goes...

    Institutional Traders vs. Private Investors

    I agree and a stat like that might be too much detail. But I was thinking about the ratio between the price of gold and silver and then I thought about the NYSE daily volume. Then I began to wonder if the percentage of individuals vs institutions changed in one direction or another if...

    Institutional Traders vs. Private Investors

    I was thinking about trading volumes today. About 2/3 of the volume is done through high frequency trading, mutual funds etc.... One trade by an institution might be 10,000 shares and it might be 100 private individuals at 100 shares a piece to reach the same volume. I don't recall any stats...

    Prop firms in Brazil/ Panama

    Sorry, I did not mean to insult you. I was basing it on a couple of recent articles I have read. But fear sells stories, like you said. But that does not mean the authors knew what they were talking about. Good luck with the Olympics.

    KITCO Rhodium pricing

    Today it ended at 725-825. Another 100 dollar spread. Why is it always a hundred dollars ?

    Question about Laptop Touchpad

    However, I could probably reduce the sensitivity......that's an idea.

    Question about Laptop Touchpad

    Thanks, yeah....I need to use the touchpad to move the mouse and all the other usual functions. I just wish that there was a function to turn off the random font explosions I go through once a day. It's a HP PC.....I wonder if you can do it with Apples.

    Prop firms in Brazil/ Panama

    Brazil may not be the best choice. Their govt. is imploding. They are trying to compel their president to resign. It's not unrealistic to think they could freeze money from leaving the country, especially foreigners. I recently read that the govt is taxing Brazilians 10 percent for trading...

    AAPL

    It may be 4 inches but it has a 4K screen, pretty..... damn sweet. And it's only 399 for the 16GB. That is the same price for other mid range phones like Nexus and Motorola. Considering that the 6S (649)and 6Plus (749) are twice as much.....it might be an entry point for people that would like...

    Brief Question about Covered Calls/Puts

    Thanks, I downloaded the link and I will read it tomorrow. I don't have any experiences to record yet. But I have read a couple of books and highlighted specific points and started a word document that has a bunch of random remarks I have cut and paste from different sources. We all have to...

    VRX fired the CEO. What's next?

    Actually, it was 263.81 last August. And if you believe the balance sheet it says there are $4 dollars per share available. Not bad for a $28 dollar stock. But inaccurate financial reporting is responsible for driving the stock down to where it is today, so who knows. 88 percent is held by...

    Question about Laptop Touchpad

    Sometimes when I am typing away on my PC laptop, my hands hit the touchpad and the font size goes all caddywonkers and either increases to 150/200 percent or it goes down to 50 percent. It's annoying because I have to stop and reduce the font size back to normal. I checked a few settings...
