Today, I learned about odds ratio.

Me too (while I was tutoring), and apparently I learned it wrong in grade school.

I learned that a 4:3 ratio is 3/4 odds.

Apparently, its supposed to be a 3:4 ratio. That pissed off some of my tutees.

Hm, as of right now, I have no classes tomorrow.

I've never liked dealing with ratios because of that sort of thing.

Apple has hit $445/share.

I bought in for about $240 a share.

 

[MotF Bane]

So I could actually go to the other campus bright and early tomorrow morning.

Sweet. How much did you buy?

 

[MotF Bane]

Sweet. How much did you buy?

Only four shares.

I spent another $2000 on other shares. Those ones are all barely breaking even. If I'd been smart, I'd've gone all Apple.

After seeing what my dad went through.. I would not touch stock trading with a 10 foot pole.

C is down 30-40%. CAT is nearly even.

Heh. I'm looking to get out, have been looking to get out for ages. I'm avoiding getting out for a loss, but I'll make better interest in a bank.

DNDN was a colossal mistake.

EBTX is finally positive again.

FTR has dropped 75%.

 

[MotF Bane]

GNVC was as much fail as DNDN.

HPQ is down 60%.

 

[busydude]

He made plenty of good investments though.. which helped him offset his loss.

 

[shortylickens]

Either that or Virginia public schools are wrong, which is totally believable.

 

[MotF Bane]

SD is positive.
STM is down.
TXN is up.
VZ is up.

It really is just a form of gambling.

 

[busydude]

It really is just a form of gambling.

IMO, it would be fine if the stock value reflects the companies worth, but in this day and age of excessive speculation.. unless you are an insider... it is not worth the risk.

 

[MotF Bane]

I'll check the full account later.

It wouldn't be the stock market without that.
