RP and the rest of the guru's please tell me what you think about this article :eek:

http://www.moneynews.com/MKTNews/St...zdgwco&utm_source=taboola&utm_medium=referral

haven't been on here in days. but anyways, my approach to articles like this is not one of concern anymore. you know why? because i have time and patience on my side. this is something i have had to "perfect" over the course of a decade.
my advice to you is...
1) Start dollar cost averaging every month now any extra free cash for the next couple of months or whatever...years etc i say $500 a month is a good reasonable amount.
2) as most of the active posters on here have said, pick out some solid companies that you know aren't going anywhere anytime soon and start scooping them up now. Again, $500/month is very reasonable. dont over diversity. just maybe 1 or 2 companies

3) and when in doubt, just remember "Be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful" -WB
Two weeks ago, he said, he doesn't give a shit what the feds do with interest rates whether they raise it or lower it, he's still gonna scooping up solid American companies as long as they're cheap, and that my friend, is the attitude u want to adopt.
me personally, my current portfolio is about $10,000 down in value as off today but it's okay. This portfolio is my sons' college tuition and the oldest is only 4 so i think i can wait for 14 years for it to turn around.

I really thought the pot stocks were going to take off, but they are hardly moving...

this shit rarely goes the way everyone expects it. And as far as pot or ebola stocks, or any stock of a company that treats some new crisis, by the time regular folks get an idea to buy the stock, it's already too late. If you got the idea to buy pot stocks AFTER they legalized it :itsawrap:

Carefully watch Arrowhead research over the next few days. Possibly dump and $1 a share. ARWR. Hepatitis cure experiments show promise. This is a buy and sell if you feel comfortable. Chart it first.

Ebola stocks are dead unless another outbreak occurs. If they cancel flights get into TKMR and foriegn airline stocks. Pump and dump only. No holds!

I'm in love with this thread right here. Granted, i'm a broke college kid but i'll be investing all the extra change i get into Rite Aid and Delta Airlines for the rest of the year and next year and hope that i can turn out a decent profit.

for the investors on here, anyone of yall scooping up stocks heavily this year? Taking advantage of the bull session or you're being cautious this year?
I made just about $10,000 last year and then got greedy at the very end and lost $3000 to wrap up the year on a profit of about 7k and change. I was daytrading for the most part and i'm doing same this year. My stock of choice was been primarily rad (riteaid). Yesterday it was up 13% at one point and then dropped slightly. On the move again today.
I was lamenting a couple of weeks ago about how i could have made half a million last year if i had had the foresight on rad. I was sitting on a $75,000 line of credit and had about $25,000 in the bank. Could have bet it all on rad. It would have been worth $500,000 by december of last year. But it's water under the bridge now.
So, what's the deal with the investors on here? What are you buying and how are you playing the market in general this year?

rite aid is taking a beating this year

smart man. starting early is the whole point.

What stocks are on your radar for the upcoming holiday season?

other than what's in my current portfolio, nothing really. still watching the news and markets to see what's gonna happen in the next coming month or so. we are finally leaving october which supposedly on record is always the worst month for stocks so all i can do is wait and see.

rite aid is taking a beating this year
yes. last year was the year to stock up on riteaid. they quadrupled in value. but i believe they will bounce back. they just got hit just like everyone else but once they bottom out and the market starts turning around i think they should turn around too. overall the company's fundamentals are not looking bad. they have trimmed all the excess fat and that was evident all through last year. they would be the perfect stock for college dude up there a few paragraphs above


Stock of the day: ZAZA.

what they about?

Energy Corp.

Opened at 2.90 and has a high of 5.75 so far today. Now hovering around $5 a share. If you got in early you can dump now for a quick profit.

Cheap airlines like JetBlue and Hawaiian airlines. Watch for the bounce. Be ready to pull the trigger. Small retail and hotel chains. Most won't report earning until next years but they will bounce during the Xmas shopping season. Really research your shit first. JcPenny just hired a black CEO. I loaded up for a brief hold. I'm up .40 on 2000 shares. Radio shack should dip below .80 then bounce as much as .30 or more during the holidays. Those motheruckers WILL file bankruptcy soon so be on your shit. Really research your picks and accept losses. I'm holding 100 share of Denny's for the holiday travelers staying in shit hotels and parting for the holidays. Got in under $7 and should hit $8 before Xmas. These are my picks and don't blame me if your shit loses. Lmao!!!

Completely understand. Definitely not a long term stock. It just made a lot of gain yesterday. I didn't jump on it because it was already hovering around $4 when I heard about it. If I would have have heard about it sooner I would have made a bid.

Yeah I'm learning to trade on the bounce. I've been trading AAPL for the past 2 months watching it fluctuate between $96 & $102. U made some sensible suggestions. I'm hoping some retail stocks will dip right before the peak shopping season so that I can ride that wave a little.

:yes: Good. I've bought and sold several stocks over and over again. I got lazy and stopped looking for new money because the shit was so easy. I constantly buy and sell Ford, Radio Shack, JcPenny, Smith & Wesson and Fannie and Freddie Mac.

I just bout 1000 shares of Fannie Mae, it went up .30, and sold it. A few days later it tanks back down under $2, i bought another thousand, and it went up to $2.23, and i sold it again. Same week. I bought 1000 shares of Radio shack at roughly .80, and sold it at $1.06 or some shit like that, next day. I don't even fuck with those $30, i get in and out, same day or with 72 hours. Just think if one had millions, and could buy 100,000 shares of Radio shack, per say, and sell at .25, every other day? Tons of easy money. That's how penny trading works.

Apple will be big shit once they figure out this Apple pay glitch shit. The specs on it being the safest method of pay is what will move the stock higher. Plus, if you go long on it, the dividend is guaranteed, plus a possible split or stock buyback in the next year or so if it gets too big again.

Best way to trade stocks, keep it simple and basic.
