    Feeding Off the Dead Carcass of Citibank

    Oohhh the stalker thinks he's twisting the knife. YEP, BOUGHT CFC AT $30 WITH THE LOGIC BEING EXTREME WEAKNESS. MIS-GAUGED SUPPORT, BUT GIVEN THE SAME CIRCUMSTANCES, I'D DO IT AGAIN. STILL HAVE IT. BEING MARKED TO MARKET, ALREADY ADDRESSED TAXWISE. ANYTHING FROM HERE IS GRAVY AX...

    WSFG.. Watch out for a big opening tomorrow!

    Not enough price history to shake my dick at. And, all distribution. Yes, dead cat bounces can and do occur. Nothing to really "bank" on. Eh, how would you know what a quality bank is? Loan to deposit ratio? ROA? Too many write-offs? Not enough write-offs? Net interest spread? Blend...

    Feeding Off the Dead Carcass of Citibank

    Attached is a chart of (4) decades of ...........time frames. I seem to recall problems with LDC's in the mid-70's. Years, not price. Sandy Weil, John Reed, the current clown. Doesn't matter. Traveller's comes and goes. Doesn't matter, except as an alibi to move paper. Strong...

    Do you use different trading strategies?

    Try this. You use one strategy to cover your overhead. Cash flow. You use another to take advantage of special situations as well as satisfying your craving for action. And you use one for capital formation (hopefully with a little tax deferral). Each entail different time horizons...

    Merrill Lynch says WSJ story relies on 'unidentified' source

    Somebody(s) picking up paper like falling leaves. Couple months or so. Make sure you (and the noos) aid in the plan by crying wolf. Or is it woof?

    Merrill Lynch says WSJ story relies on 'unidentified' source

    The flavor of YOUR thread uses the word "unidentified" source. Follow through. Bloomberg and/or Market Watch isn't.................indentfication of sources. That aside, to paraphrase Lou Reed, believe half of what you see and none of what you hear.

    Wash Sales...

    If YOU're domiciled in the US, you should be able to draw your conclusion. Get yourself a 475 rather than trying to grind a square peg in a round hole. Incidently, paying MORE taxes is something to strive for. It's.........eh...............form of measurement. A very telling one, that...

    Why would Office Depot delays results due to review

    The merchandising of paper requires having paper to merchandise. Sharp fast moves is one way it's done. News is orchestration and eventually, PUNKtuation. Break of a 2 year down trend, say............mid $20's in mid 2008, it'll be fit to go. Ask Doyle (what a name) about his fabulous...

    CFC - ready to surge upward

    Right here. No reason to go anywhere. There's a distinction between an operation and a stock. The latter is "worth" what the specialist bids. IF he's bidding low, why..............he's picking up inventory.

    Rost Ceo Sells 25% Of Stake

    WHAT???? No ReBUTTal from mister academia? Let's sea, oops, I mean see, ROST has roughly 137 million shares outstanding. Those that are anal retentive may struggle with the word roughly, but that's the way the world works. Now, quant boy, what proportion is "your" 100,000 shares of the...

    SEC investigates Countrywide chief

    Quando? Como? Porque? El heffe. A share is worth what the specialist is willing to bid for it. He acquires with cash rather than calls. Nope, it's going to oscillate around $20. Probably "longer" than I'd like. Under the right conditions, 3 or 4 point gap with an alibi, then follow...

    SEC investigates Countrywide chief

    Here's a chart kiddies. Panoramic view. The risk isn't in it. It's out of it. Until proven otherwise, I'd consider $15 as capitulation. Particularly since it closed at $20 same day. And Beaker.....................you'd have more credibility if you played a trumpet rather than a...

    Ross Store [ROST] Is Indeed Tanking

    1% vs 3%, yeah, relative weakness. Scathing. Let's see, ROST's 20 day ATR is 86 cents. Relative to the prevailing price of $26.93 is 3.19% In other words, 3% isn't even one day's range. Actually, as I write, delta is 2.78%. What exactly are you trying to accomplish (other than...

    Short huh? Why? Yes, I read your verbage. But again, why? Chart doesn't suggest it. Fundamentals, for those that subscribe to such include quite reasonable PSR of .65x coupled with an ROE of 28%. Eh..................if an insider sold a stake acquired via a CASH outlay rather...
