right now just km (or kmart). TA shows that its still moving up probably in anticipation of good earnings. I just moved out of amd and kind of regret it and will probably buy in again if amd dips below 30 again. Always closely watching intc, msft, csco, nvdia, rmbs (for my first short project), and of course amd. Also looking forward for the accenture (ACN) ipo.
So what is in you portfolio and which stocks are u watching right now.
 
short positions are VERY risky right now...

I am holding:

CALP
ABI
CPHD
CYMI
JNJ
RGR

The first 3 are biotechs are are all off their highs significantly.
Cymer makes chip MAKING equipment and is doing very well
J&J is a safe haven drug stock.
RGR is a dividend paying gun maker.
 
Mostly cash. Cashed out of AMD and NITE with a 100% and 25% gain respectively. Pretty much the only holding i have left (apart from funds) is ERICY, holding tight on that one (bought at 5, so i have some breathing room to hold it)
 
looking at another fed cut (i'm eyeballing 25 points) in 2 weeks when they have their 2nd quarterly meeting

i know, short position are risky now but rambus must and will go down.

mwilding-your list looks interesting. So far I have only considered tech stocks. the only biotech i ever held war cra or celera something
 
I leave my investing to the professionals, ie. all my holdings are in mutual funds. As poor as many professionals are at prediction given my lack of financial training and lack of time of course they are still better than the average joe 😉
 


<< AMD

right now, i'm up 10 points

not sure if I should get out or not

what does everyone think?
sell?

I dunno... maybe bail... smile to the bank with the profits... and buy back in if it happens to go down some. However, they are a good company and their processor is way better that Intel's junk. If you are up a bunch of cash... at least cash out part of your position... so that if it plummets you won't end up losing out. You can always buy back. (I learned this when I was up $18k... and then down $5k a short time later... shoulda sold when up... and just held on to see what happened).

P.s. i'm not a financial dude... so don't take my suggestion as &quot;THE WORD&quot;. Figure it out for yourself.

Okay, for sake of argument, let's say AMD has 10 more points of upside left in it. Here's the question to ask yourself - would you feel worse about giving up 10 additional points of profit (if the stock went up), or giving up the 10 you have now (if the stock goes down)? Answer that question, and you'll have your answer.
 
Lots of stocks and bonds that aren't worth sh*t right now (to get an idea of what I mean, look up Commoddore Cruise Lines...)

...wait, the bonds might be sh*t now lemme go check...
 
lol

thats the question i can't seem to answer

I think i'll continue to hold on to it, it seems to be in a slow upward spiral as of right now.
 
No Cisco after today ! Hit my target and Im out with the cash. Sold at 20.

May have some more up side to it but I am satisfied. Drops back down Ill consider it again, goes up, oh well, helps my mutual funds.

Always have a sell number in mind when I buy. Usually dont do as well if I dont stick with it.
 


<< HM, or Homestake. Doing pretty well, but I don't own enough shares to get rich >>



Interesting choice... just out of curiousity, what made you pick a precious metals mining stock? You a 'gold bug,' or was it simply an extremely contrarian play?
 
Hello,

I happen to be a supporter of GATA, which makes me optimistic about gold's future. I also didn't think either the metal or the stock could go any lower, making it a good buy 🙂
 
Just some old sketches of the Ramones and some past due library notices.

Oh, that thing. Don't have one yet. Gotta get on the ball i guess.
