If you recall though it is the only times I have ever said it, so you know there has to be some common sense behind it.
At this speed ? My god !!!... My great, great, great great....etc... kids are the ones who will reach it.... if they ever do.Quote:

Abbey Cohen takes her marching orders from Lloyd Blankfine the same way Mark Wienkes did . . Wienkes should be making liscense plates or breaking big rocks into little ones that john can throw at irish next Q (jk)

Common sense indeed,but worried a little about last Q with low sac and still only -.01 EPS,should have been even,thought rev was down a little,but we'll see..
P.S.take that back,but for new bond we would have been .01 to.03 GAAP positive EPS,forgot that part,that was my call remember,can't anticapate new bond offering.was 196mil charge..
problem with that theory is that if you wait for the upgrade before you buy-in, you will have already missed the move, imoQuote:

I told ya before Irish . . a 10 penny move yields your down payment on the beach house, which you will be buying at 50 cents on the dollar . . but before you abandon us all here . . we expect an invite to the deck-party . . julie will even fly in from Michigan . . you tell Junior I'm pretty good on those go-carts; lifetime of practice.Quote:

I just realized I am heading toward 500!! posts. At the rate I am going
I should reach it by about 11p.m. :D Sorry guys, I don't mean to
monopolize the conversation. Carry on. :)
I guess I should've said "I do not invest"... I trade (buy/sell or sell/buy, whatever) but I do not pay attention to analysts...Quote:

I invest in Sirrius almost everyday. I think I've made far more money from Sirrius using my method of investing than some people who buy and hold. In fact, I know I have.
Investing is a personal thing.
It was a great investment to buy Sirrius at 10 cents and sell it at 40 cents, then buy it 25, and sell it 45, and buy it 32 and sell it 59, and so on and so on.
Sometimes you miss a small move, but in the end, you can profit from investing on a daily basis.
That works for me. It may not work for everybody. There are no right ways, just wrong ways. But, we are all individuals and what works for me may not work for you. But, we are all investors.
So, don't worry, be happy, and invest!:)
Yikes, that's a silly way to put things. But think about it for awhile and it almost makes sense.
Anyone think I can catch Siri at .50 or just under .51 tomoroow morning ? I got out at about .514 to secure profit after being upset over the weekend about not getting out before last Friday. Now I feel I screwed up with stock closing at .52 -.525.
had a sell in early today at .525 good till close, the bid never went past .5236 that i saw before leaving for work around 1:15, my sell didn't happen @ the close, hope that is a good sign for all, will try again tomorrow for a sale @ .54, 1/4 position, GTLA:)
I was outraged just like i was when the corporate CEO's tried to buy new jets.Quote:

Johns really pissed now. Congress buckled just like the CEO's.
He should be....it's our money.Quote:
