If you are a short term trader going for a few pennies here and there then fundamentals are really not worth bothering with beyong knowing what date earnings and important conferences are held. This info can be found on yahoo or the IR section of the company's web site. Even if you are a longer...

It has seen significant accumulation the last couple of sessions, look at the volume about double the average and call buying has spiked almost 18 times the 10 day average. Someone was just soaking up all the supply in the stock. Look at its reaction to the MS downgarde, pretty much non...

Yes but the Russians were crawling all over the island making preparations for the sites long before the missiles ever left the Soviet Union. US intel was pretty good and we knew what they were up to, hence the embargo before the missiles ever got there.

When they are getting Russian nukes installed 90 miles from our shores I think we do, but I agree that at this point the embargo probably does more harm than good. Infact my guess is sin embargo and US interference Castro would have been gone a long time ago. While the idealism of communism...

Thanks Closed QM 52300 Closed HPQ 43.10 Buy SUNW 6.05 (Double weight position) BUY AMD 17.77 (anticipating 6 month hold) Short TLT 88.13

Picked up some Feb Sunw calls today, vol and action look good. Earnings on the 23rd and impressive new server. Abnormal option action, heavy in the calls (58.5K vs 4K 10 day average). Some goog rumor but I think it will do well on its own merit and will surprise to the upside at earnings and...

He makes too much sense to be taken seriously.

Site shows how Fed is reducing liquidity by reducing repos, guess no one got that far.

http://www.nowandfutures.com/articles/20060426M3b,_repos_&_Fed_watching.html If he's right then the Fed (and central banks in world wide, China yesterday, BOJ soon, etc) is not with the longs anymore which could be problematic as falling oil and other commodity prices are also sucking...

One explanation I have read (John Succo at minyanville.com) is that when stock movements start to correlate because the idexes are being bought rather than individual stocks it has a muting effect on the vix. This often occurs at tops and bottoms (at bottoms people sell indiscriminately thus...

Fidelity put a bid under it and Momo money was looking for a place to make some coin in a down day and crowded in to the few Rimm and Goog trades available.

Look at what the BKX did today, I think it is trying to tell us something...
