    Measuring & Predicting Stock Volatility

    For the foreseable future I will not be daytrading. As a result, I am interested in issues which, for example, range between $5 and $20 in price over a month moreso than issues ranging between $20 and $22 over a similar period. Conceptually speaking the first part of the equation measures...

    Measuring & Predicting Stock Volatility

    Is this question posed to the users of beta or my formula? If you mean there is a simpler approach than what I have put forth then I'd be curious to see more precisely what you mean. Also, with beta am I correct in believing that values 1.0- (less movement than the general market, eg...

    Measuring & Predicting Stock Volatility

    I have never known the entire method of calculating beta. I have seen some of the math but because of my limited mathematical expertise was unable to understand the formula. Also, I was under the impression that beta was calculated in relation to an index - or the market in general - in which...

    Measuring & Predicting Stock Volatility

    I have not of late, if I have ever, been making many contributions of value. Here is something I dreamt up while listening to Dave Allman's interview of Connie Brown. The purpose is to find stocks which will move in either direction, but do so rapidly. My firsts filters were performed on...

    Nobody to match Bush

    I think OPT brought into conversation pre-emptive, which is what I was hinting towards. Your previous statement was that Iraq was a danger, your above reasons claim Iraq as a potential danger, with the possible exception of (3). It's a fine line and maybe not too important, but from a moral...

    My Best Guess

    Well I am going to start making guesses. I'll keep a running tally and see what happens. No rules other than the 'market calls' will have to be made in advance - and you all can keep me honest. No fudging or close ones - right or wrong. Here's the first in this (worthless?) exercise: 1)...

    Nobody to match Bush

    IF there were no WMD how was Iraq a danger to the US? This is not rhetorical.

    Fear of success

    Some of this has got to do with being a competitor, too. I know men and women who are excellent competitors in that when they are in a pressure situation they improve. I don't know where this comes from but it can certainly be improved through athletics at an early age. And although most...

    Dell Refurbished

    Had an almost identical experience purchasing a Gateway laptop. In the end I ended up with a much better computer, brand-new, and saved 20%. I still haven't found a comparable deal to what I got and I got it a year ago.

    Fear of success

    I would say it is a bit of both. I'd also guess that the female experience is somewhat different from the male experience. Women, I think, are influenced and trained at a very young age not to exceed the success of males. Insofar as this is true I would say women would be more inclined to...

    Baron can we revoke some members?

    The problem is maturity. Adults need not be told not to curse because they know when it is and is not appropriate. It seems that ET is being ever more populated by children, it seems kids like the internet and forums even if they know nothing about the subject matters for which they were...
