80% of the posts on this site seem to be trash these days. Some of these guys are so clueless you can't even reason with them they think they can call market tops within days and think that the market corrects every few weeks. I'm seeing a very solid market with potential for upside surprises...

Many companies had record earnings in 2010. That should be your focus not on projected earnings. Plus the fact many large caps are sitting on a boatload of cash which any way you slice it is of value to investors.

This EMRGLOBAL guy isn't even logical I seriously question his whole story about having "clients" etc. The strong US economic numbers for three months and the way many corporations are addressing things lately ( eg m&a ) suggests earnings will be very strong this quarter. Technology seems...

Betting against Intel. Wow, brave move, Intel usually has decent earnings. Could always be different this time of course, but I believe their previous guidance was strong.

Bullish in large cap financials and technology. Downside risk very low in these sectors. Earnings reports from Alcoa, Intel, and JP Morgan are key aspects. Alcoa could help stem the metals sell off. Intel and JP Morgan will likely confirm that corporations in their businesses are making...

We are down nothing at all, maintaining the gains of Monday. Close the thread its another Fly Down failure.

Hold this long until now, and you make 78 points. What exactly occurred in the news that swayed you from this trade, and how was it a new item compared to November ?

Still holding a short hoping that tha market will reverse trend instantly when every piece of news suggests more upside ? This is what I don't understand, your thread is about trading on news but you constantly make the rookie mistake of holding your losing trades but occasionally cutting...

Do us all a favour, list out all the 25% corrections in history and when they occurred. Next, list out all the bull markets in history, when they occurred, and what percentage they grew. Now, actually THINK instead of posting mania. Where are we in THIS bull market ( still less then two years...

Believe what you want to, the question is can you formulate a related trading strategy and profit from it. Please feel free to recommend a trade ( perhaps a put option with near month expiration ) that you are considering investing in. You may be surprised how accurate you will need to be...

Momentum and technicals suggest we go higher. Your idea of a sharp correction this week seems highly unlikely. Next week, you'll need earnings surprises on the downside to have any chance. Please tell me you are selling 1300 January calls. I love an exciting project. There is a fellow called...

Haven't you been saying this since September ? Have you been making tons of money in this time period, just buying the S&P 500 from 1041 to 1275 is a 22.4% return in 5 months ? Buying RIM yesterday you'd be up 5% today. I think its got more legs the rest of the month, my new target is $72 Cdn...

I don't understand your logic. We broke through major resistance at 1250 and have risen only 2% since. This is hardly the kind of action that signals the need for an immediate pullback. I would suggest to you that the more eager sellers got out when the market dropped from 1230 to 1177 not so...

Total utter nonesense. Your clients should find a smarter advisor I guarantee you are underperforming the stock market since early 2009. I feel badly for your clients, your approach is outdated and unsuitable in today's world. Adapt or retire. I'm quite serious.

Would that be the "wall of worry" that most strong bull markets climb ??? Again a reminder, bull markets usually last at least 3-4 years ( check it out historically, please find me the last bull market of only 2 years ).

Excuse me, but do you not follow news at all ??? There was a huge upside surprise on US jobs this morning. This is the last piece of the economic puzzle, jobs are always the most lagging aspect of a recovery. 80k gain expected and actuals were 300k gain. And then the ISM number was above...

2010 was a down market early in the year; I was thinking the same for 2011 around a month ago but I've changed my mind. There is simply too much good US news lately, and here in Canada the banks raising dividends first quarter may lift the whole market. The other side of things are metal stocks...

Buy large caps with strong earnings history and fairly flat stock performance in 2010. Some sample candidates : RIM, INTC, TD, CM. May be last chance to get in fairly cheap before the next earnings reports on these stocks. Resource stocks, in particular metals, are now trading vehicles. That...

You know, this place has become a haven for permabears discussing impending market crashes, their latest top calls, and in general how the world's economy is going to hell any day now. Yes, I had the arrogance to present a clear message concerning market direction, with some fairly valuable...

Pure "genius" how you called another top at 1220 and we are around 1250-1260 solidly for more then a week. I know its only another 3% but that's significant for just a few weeks on top of the previous gains. Please let us all know what your new time estimate is for S&P 500 at 1000 as you...
