After a string of suicide bombings in Israel someone on the GW Bush staff told the media to call them what they are, which according to them was homicide bombers. The only network that complied with their demand was Fox.

Massive gap down today. My broker, Scottrade, would not let me sell it because of the name/symbol change. I finally sold it out after a lengthy phone call to the office. The name/symbol change occured weeks ago and even though the office said that they were waiting for the new shares from...

You can try googling for "blue screen of death" or "bsod" to look for answers. There are a million and one things that can cause it, but from my brief amount of research it seems to happen mostly on PCs with games loaded on them. The only troubleshooting info I could find reccomended booting...

Bought today at 3.77. I noticed it on January 8 after it had been rising on slightly increasing volume. It looks like it had bottomed out at about 3.25 last month.

I bought it in late 2008 at 55 in a DRIP account. So after a year, it hasn't really been all that great, but not all that bad either. I'll be holding for a couple more years at least.

The fact that the market plunged more than 50% doesn't stop conspiracy wackos from believing there is a conspiracy to keep the market from plunging. No shit, I once confronted one of these nuts and simply asked him why the market plunges if there is a Plunge Protection Team. He said it is to...

It looks like someone has set up an elitetrader page at facebook: http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/group.php?gid=2387707643&ref=search&sid=1062866773.4193199279..1 They are even using the ET logo. It would be a good idea for Baron to set up pages at facebook and youtube. If you...

Landis is a first-class jagoff with his "you don't even trade!" and his "your reading comprehension is terrible!" bullshit in every thread he vomits on. But he should not be banned. Pick up the shattered pieces of your life, put him on ignore and do you utmost best to carry on.

We know that Rogers had an account at Refco because it was disclosed in a lawsuit after Refco imploded. There's no way to know what he was doing with the account though.

Today's WSJ says that Citigroup is planning to issue more stock to help pay down the TARP, diluting the present shareholders.

Pretty accurate? Really? Then just ask him to give you next week's lottery numbers.

Yes, he has much more money than I do. But where did he get that money? If he earned most of it through fees collected from investors, then he deserves no credit. Has he earned money from capital gains and dividends from the market? I hope he has, but there really isn't any evidence of it...

I've always been highly skeptical of quants. Why shouldn't I be? They keep blowing out and passing their hat around for the big comeback. Did any of these quants develop methods for trading individual stocks? It seems like most of them stick to commoditties, futures and oddball derivatives...

Well, they took out the American Exchange stock tables. They are still printing preferred stock listings though. I guess that appeals to a large segment of their readership. My subscription is up in January, I still think I will renew. I wonder what else they plan on cutting from the...

Bought a few minutes ago at 4.05. Since it's a long term investment, there's really no need to sit here tape reading it and trying to save a few pennies.

I've had C up on my screen all week. I've already made up my mind to buy, but I'm not too sure about when. If the market turns down over the next few weeks, C and other banks will be leading the way. So do I want to ride that drawdown? No, but I rode a drawdown on PEP last year and I've come out...
