Didn't hear squat from Tony today, the wife must have taped him up in a box of Dickies and sent him via UPS.

Tripp/Bill
Out of touch last couple of days. Still recovering from breakdown from BK rumor(naw..just kiddin).
What are your thoughts on this DirectTV rumor? This waiting is killing me! I know good things come to those who wait (or those who cry and beg the president to get him the hell out of McDonalds...Do you think the Big O will infuse some cash into SiriXM if Mel sheds a tear or two) if they BK, I will be like the lady who told the Big O that she needed a kitcher and car of her own!
Sorry Tripp couldn't help myself. That pity party was too much for me to handle?
Hope you make a killin tomorrow. hell...I hope we all make a killing tomorrow!!!!!
I think Tony was last seen at the Obama town hall meeting in Florida begging for a job!
Check my prediction earlier today in this thread...I don't want to re-type it. DTV is the most unlikely candidate.
We don't need B.O. or even B.O., lol.
Read my prediction....it will warm your heart and is realistic. I read the tea leaves, but I believe it. Actually, I used good business sense and didn't bother with the wringing hands and perspiration in the intraday.
So what kind of ailment did you have? lol I am just kicking back and facing reality. I have to know so I can adjust to the situation. I am not throwing money out as a blind bet...forget that....I need to know.
I WILL SAY....BK is bullshit. Nobody will gain from it, including swell Mel or anybody else..it is a bluff for more money.
Amen, Hallelujah and let's take a collection!
Mel is a salesman...leaking the bk is his strategy. He will not take bk...he has nothing to gain.
Now companies are chiming in looking for a cheap whore. ( see... Mel is smart).
He will let somebody control and take over, but he will make his money back. That is one of the pre-conditions to the control factor.
Your stock should not disappear. Who could afford that?
It is so simple that it stinks. If Mel goes bk out of pride, then he is the dumbest man on planet Earth. Mel is not dumb, so don't lose any sleep tonight. If he screws this up, then I will wonder how he ever got so far.
I will not bet against SIRI, but I just want to know the facts before investing more.
I don't know Bill, I can see the reasons for BK...
Expect a big peice that Brandon and I are working on to be published either Thurs or Fri.
As far as the rest: I just freed up some cash for a purchase when I sold BAC at $6.50. I think BAC will be a great play long term, but I think the short term swings are going to be tough to play. I see it coming down from here, coming down back closer to 5.50 or 5.25.
AIB is a nice stock and might be positioned for another run shortly. I am in it, and I like it.
F: I want this one. I think it will run tomorrow and pull back on Friday, only to bounce again on monday. No analysis behind that, just a gut feeling watching th action over the past couple of days. I want to buy at the open and sell at the close tomorrow, see what happens.
ETFC: Good long term play, not so much short term. I can see it dropping closer to 1.10 or perhaps even $1 before it starts going up. Again, I havent had a chance to research this, just going on the nature of the economy and the nature of the market right now. I think there is more down side before there is upside.
I think Friday we will hear something on Sirius that will send it skyrocketing through the weekend. Again, just a gut feeling...
I don't see bk at all....Mel won't gain....he has to make his cash. I think he is there for the highest bidder and he can ride their coat tails. I know that this is against his nature, but money is money. That is my guess.
I truly hope that Echostar gets the gig, not DTV, because of the money all ready invested. It will keep things more consolidated and less confusing.
Good move on BAC....smart buy...you got it at $3.73 or 4? Made money...good for you! The short terms are going to be a bitch. The market is going up tomorrow and should do good until we hit 8350 and then the war is on through 8500. When we make it through 8500 and can hang the market will resume. I now believe that 8500 is the true market bottom for recovery.
AIB is positioned to run big time....tomorrow should be a good indication. I am surprised that it is so geared to the U.S. economy and stock markets. It should go up tomorrow.
I agree with F. It is slow to react, but catches back up, either down or up, but takes a while...once the economy is more stable it will get into sync.
ETFC: for some reason I love the way it is reacting and chugs along like a little train....doesn't quit and is strong...I have high hopes for it. Bought 100 @ 1.31 and then another 71 @ 1.21....so it is a long. I like it.
I really don't see bk in the formula unless Mel's ego is so big that he would let it come to that....If you have more reasons, let me know, but I am not buying more till after the 17th unless you have a specific reason. If you do, then email me and I will listen to your reasoning. I miss things a lot of times.
Thanks, buddy,
Bill
Email me something else... I forgot to save your email address
will do...on its way
Thanks
Hey...I resemble that remark!....You may not hear from here always...but im always here! I think Ive been in BK Shock...so I just kept away from the computer for a bit...of course that ment AIB went to 3.60 when I wasnt looking and miss dumping it it..but Im over it now! all of it!
I checked in with tripp a few times...and posted a few thoughts...so Im good
Positions AIB AIG BAC C ETFC F GCHK GTOX LVLT SIRI... and getting my ass kick...
Today got to be a better day..I think?
My prediction for today, if it holds will be good. It will be rocky at first with the futures down, but I think we can pull through it. There are chances that we will go to new lows, because of lack of confidence. If the market doesn't at least match yesterdays highs and lows then we could be in a very precarious position for a while. I just don't see the short term advantages with the stimulus plan. I am really disappointed in the way that they wrote it. There is not any logical reason for the market to go down or totally sideways today, but investors don't have confidence.
The problem with all of the news is that they use lagging numbers. They are all from last week or last month. Remember when Bush declared that we had all ready been in a recession for 6 months? When things in the news start to get better it will work the same way in the opposite direction - Heck, we have been out of the recession for 6 months.
AIB will be my target stock to watch this morning.
SIRI is not in my scope until at least the 17th at minimum.
A great percentage of the market's problems could have been solved if Geithner didn't stand up on the stage looking like a 13 year old punk, scared to death of the people. It was a total lack of leadership on his part and didn't instill any confidence in the market. Without leadership the market will just wain and drop. The guy has to show some spine and he didn't.
Am I blaming him?? Yes!! He didn't come out with any specifics and that is what the market wanted.
Any thoughts or questions, please post them.
Bill
Hope your right about the Dish restructure(no bk). I will hand deliver you a case of Makers. i would ask Tripp to make the trip with me...someone would probable die if politics entered into the conversation.
have a great day!
I appreciate it, however there could be things that I just can't see on the surface. There are wiser people than I. That is the scenario that I am hoping for and predicting, but I don't know. I guess that would be my ideal outcome. I am just tired of all the people running around like chickens with their heads cut off. Sometimes it just pays to kick back and not get mixed up with the nervousness. After the 17th we will know what is shaking. Until then....let it blow...I can hang..
good morning....
Bill are you watching fnm this a.m
keeping an eye this one is usually is worth.06 to.10 in short order
I have to agree with Newman on etfc not a short term stock
ctic looks like it is going to the cheap seats, but I am still going to follow it
Good morning, sir -
Ya, they are looking prime for buying....if they can just stay down for tomorrow morning, lol.
Ah, I will say it .... check out DRYS and EGLE
ETFC is a long stock, most definitely. I will keep that and just let it do its thing, just like my F stock.
I don't want to buy too long at my age...:rolleyes:
I will have to go look at CTIC here in a bit.
Man, there are a lot of good bargains out there today.
This market isn't going to go anywhere for a while... We have two different economies going right now. We have the government economy fighting with the market economy and the government economy is winning.
This is just a sample of what is to come. Actually it is happening right now. We are in it.
I am really disappointed. Now, people wonder why France and the European countries never grow and everybody is on welfare of some type. This should be a big wake-up call for Americans.
Lvlt @ .80
that is looking real good on lvlt
I picked up a bug in the computer this a.m so I drove to murphy 20miles away to check the market lol
I had owned eftc in late july at 3.40 and sold it at 3.25
ever since,it has been on my watch list
I would have picked it up again at .90 but got sirius about my money lol
