Sure, tell that to the bag holders of 2000 nasdaq....
I guess I have balls of steel then. This is the 2nd time i've ever shorted goog, I think i made 3 pts last time, but that was in the 180's. But we're talking earnings here. Has the bird eaten too much feed?
If I'm wrong, the maggots of ET will have a field day. You can't say I don't provide excitement to this site. I won't be around if there's carnage.
you better be the first person on this thread to apologize if wrong re: goog.
Good hunting chap I shorted GOOG at 309.0 yesterday and got out at 304.27 today. Beauty.
Don't believe the hype.
I will fully apologize to you, rubberbird, if you're right about GOOG. And will admit that I'm the idiot publically in this thread. If you're wrong however, you agree that is The Kin right, and ban yourself from Elite Trader for a period of 72 hours to bow your head in shame.
Might as well post here what your bet will be so we can calculate your loses
LOL, the bird is laying some turds.
First he tries to wriggle and squirm out of his obviously incorrect S&P "top" call but the market just doesnt yield, +15 from his 1225 top and he still claims he's not wrong. You can bet if it was 15 pts down he would be basting in his own juices on how smart he is. Heads he's right, tails you're wrong.
Then he makes that desperate google call to distract from the s&p top call but that fails misrably too. Dont worry though, tomorrow one of two things will happen, (1) if goog goes back down he will claim victory, (2) if it stays up he will simply declare that of course he exited before the big run up.
Amazing, with all the disclaimers and vagueness he has a far better chance of being "right" then 50-50 and he still porks the pooch.

If i am wrong about goog, I will do exactly as you say, and will accept a 72 hour ban to bow my head to the vermin here. I will not ever, though, bow my head in shame as I have nothing to be ashamed of.
I shorted goog @ 311.95. So we'll know who's right come tomorrow morning. I know that everytime goog has announced, the stock has hit the moon soon there-after, so I am up against it. So what else is new?
Good morning.
