Quote from S2007S:

NICE 4 buck drop today!!!

Smarty, not only did you not answer my question as to why it will drop to 80 but the last time I checked $99 is not $80.

And um MA will go to 120 in a few months of so. I have a long temr holding so I dont care if it drops $4 today.

Anyway, time 2 buy

futures are up again

 

[stock_trad3r]

yup another big day in the markets as I said would happen

did stockpickr say that? Um no cause he sucks and is overrated like buffet.

The seling is done.

Oh and MA is up 2 bucks cause MA is spendism and paymentism and screwing people over with thier crappy cards . Same for bank of america. I hate creditcard companies and they should burn in hell but I like the stock though.

stock you should utilize the spellcheck function, it lends an air that you are not 14 years old.

 

[stock_trad3r]

Its a trading forum; not a doctoral thesis.

 

[frank grimes]

and you are not a threat to either profession, in my opinion.

doctor thesis, dont pay the docs much attention, most of the doctors Ive seen, dont care about patients, just care about making money. The thing about doctors, is when they are wrong, they dont like to take responsibility. They love to claim medicine is a science.

Well, Stockpickr has a variety of features that are useful and worth checking out.

- we have about 800 <a href="http://stockpickr.com/members/list/latestpro/">pro portfolios</a> that are worth checking out, including <a href="http://stockpickr.com/members/port/Warren-Buffett/">Warren Buffett</a>, <a href="http://stockpickr.com/members/port/George-Soros/">George Soros</a>, and hundreds of other hedge funds and mutual funds.

- about 40,000 people have <a href="http://stockpickr.com/members/home/">entered</a> their own portfolios. When you enter a portfolio you see what other portfolios overlap with yours (pro and otherwise) and you can browse those portfolios. Most importantly, when you sign up you get recommendations on other stocks you should look at based on the correlation between your port and others.

In the next post I'll have more features of Stockpickr.

Hey stockpicker do you ever have any short ideas or are you a permabull?

 

[Vishnu]

Well, I personally am a permabull. My view is, we've had wars, depressions, terrorist attacks, more wars, scandals, awful presidents, assassinations, etc. And where is the market? Near all time highs.

That said, at Stockpickr.com there are plenty of people who list short picks. The idea of stockpickr is that its not my picks or predictions but the portfolios and analysis of about 40,000 other people including 800 "pros" such as Buffett, Icahn, etc.

For instance, today we'll do a Barrons Roundup portfolio in a few hours that will summarize the bearish picks in Barrons. ALso if you search "short" in the Search function you can see some of the short-oriented ports there.
