reply #500 in this thread (not post, reply)

anyways I am just keeping an eye on a select few to see where they go... no real indicators as far as I can tell since the market itself is so volatile







Thanks HL and Corsair!

screwball ... the market has always been and will be volatile ... that is what a market does. Trade wisely and volatility is your friend.

I signed up for a bumpy ride with MTG ... thought it might be overbought ... I could end up loosing a couple grand over it ... wish this game had a stop-loss.

Go Disney!! I'm hoping that when this ''wall-e' film is released that stocks will go up. The critics have been raving about it, although I don't like the look of it.

I haven't traded in a while because I am trying a new strategy of just letting the stocks do their thing. I got tired to racking up the commission fees so figured I would see how it went if I just hung on to stuff. Unfortunately, I've gone down A LOT in the past few weeks and am prettymuch out of the competition now.

Well, It seems that my SMP stock is holding it's own for now and rising above my expectations. We'll see how much longer it will gain.
Moved from 11th to 10th so far.

The market is pretty choppy right now with scary and uncertain reaction and response.

This is the ultimate time for high dividend paying low P/E ratio stocks that have good liquidity.

It will straiten out after the election and those high yield stocks will triple in value as well as pay out the dividend premium.

EPS picks should be 12 or lower with the best ones between 2-9

Quarterly dividend times 4 divided by current stock price should be over 10% yield per anum.
