While Darvas was on tour, he had his broker air mail him a copy of Barron's every week. However, when Darvas was in the US, he would read the stock tables in a daily newspaper. So even if you wanted to, you could not emulate Darvas today, daily papers don't have stock tables anymore. The WSJ...

Smiling to myself .............. It's Saturday night and I'm sitting here with the latest Barron's reading the stock tables, line by line. So just for kicks I put Darvas in the ET search and see this thread still going. There's a few threads on here about Darvas, and at least one other about...

WTF? That site wants me to get a new browser? Fuck that, ain't no picture of either one of those two ugly mugs worth it.

Cmon guys, we have a good thread going here, no food fites please. Lively debate like Siskel and Ebert in the old days is good, but let's keep the typical chat board fighting down.

lilduckling hasn't posted for a month now. anybody know what's up? He set his options so that he can not receive email from board users.

A few people were skeptical of him because of the steadiness of his returns. Not because of grand claims, but because of the steadiness. They didn't believe it was possible. This is from the New York Times: It also mentioned a Massachusetts charity that had it's entire endowment with Madoff...

I have a money poster on the wall. It is stacks of hundred dollar bills surrounded by a pile of quarters. I downloaded a couple of pics of Nicolas Darvas onto my computer, but I don't sit and worship them.

Abe Lincoln. And your damb right I googled. With google I'm a genius in any field I want to be. got a brain tumor? Any digitial information snacker worth his salt can tell you how to cut it out with kitchen utensils in 45 minutes or less.

Is that true? Are the current labor contracts nulled in the event of a chp 11 bankruptcy? I've been looking for info on it and can't really find anything conclusive. Anybody got a good link? As far as I can tell, the company can ask a BK judge to void the contract, but it appears to be up to...

Remember we went through this with the first bailout. Republicans were posturing, but they caved in in the end and voted for it anyway. I suspect they are doing it now.

WTF??? This has been going on for three years??? WTF???

I thought the same thing too. I'm still in shock and awe at how far this has gone.

Every day I run a scan searching for stocks that are rising on subtly increasing volume. Today, three apparel stores appeared in it, and it's unusual to see stocks in the same subsector appearing on the same day. The three were Finish Line, Chico's FAS, and Guess?. The scan searches for stocks...

I thought I just heard this on Bloomy, this couldn't possibly be right? Can one of you fine ET'ers verify?

Zell is just another one of the rich old farts who didn't see the end of the newspaper industry. Carlos Slim is putting millions into the NYT, he's going to take a hit as well. I think these rich old geezers refuse to see the end of traditional print and broadcast media partly because they've...

CME and LUK?? What are you, stoned? Fugetaboudit. Your two strongest are AVAV and FHC. For ZALE do you mean Zale's Jewelery, ZLC? I think retail stocks are going to do well, but I ain't so sure about Zale's.

I think I'll go ahead and try a Barron's subscription and see if I can get it on Saturday. I pull the Market Week section out and throw away the rest. Abelson's writing is so flowery it's hard to follow along with. I've been watching media stocks fall for some time now so when I noticed...

Stoney!! Saturday was Dec 6th! Put down the ganga!

Kuwaitis have a cradle-to-grave government policy that cares for all of it's citizens. No Kuwaiti has to work if he or she doesn't want to. However, fossil fuels are fast becoming, well, fossils. We won't need Kuwaiti oil in a couple of decades. It will be interesting to see how Kuwaitis market...

Last week I show that the two best performing sectors were Specialty Retail and Retail, up 8.13% and 4.48% respectively. It's noteworthy considering that the Dow Industrials was down 2.19% for the week, and the average of the 40 most active stocks for the week was down 4.41%. The Sporting...
