    BTW- thank you for analysis and opinions. I know that you are not in the business of selling securities...but us that are less knowledgable appreciate your insight.

    Oh and another thing..you can be the referee!
    I just tell what is in the charts and my opinions. I don't know squat. My best recommendation as I have said before is to get an education on www.stockcharts.com they have a wonderful school there where you can look at charts and interpret them. It will only take a night or two. Then you can predict the same things that I do. I would love to hear opinions from more people. I throw out things that sound good to me. Give them a try...It is not rocket science and I am sure that somebody smarter than I can make the calls.

    Take a couple of days, then we all will have something to compare to...and it is fun! Learn the indicators and the basic stuff. It is not hard.

    Thanks for your compliments though, once you do this, you will say, "Hell, I know that!" It is that simple. Nothing special.

    Good morning, gang -

    I see that the futures are down this morning...arghh.

    Oh well, the day can change quickly. I am sticking with my prediction that I wrote last night. What do you guys think?

    I put in a stop loss at .09 with GTXO. If it goes up, fine, if down adios and suck it up.

    I hope it goes up. That will give it a fair chance.

    With 1003 shares, that is 10.03 a penny. It can work both ways.

    It sucked up my GTXO at .098. I am out. I left with 91.39 out of 100.00....lost 8.xx. Not the worst. I agree with Tony, it is moving too slow for me. I didn't expect it to sell so fast. I put in a stop for .09 and it sold for .098. That confirms my screwy bidder theory on there. "Money for nothing". I love Dire Straits.

    Whats up guys... Abk is looking good today... bill you might want to look at drys if your waiting to buy its down 2.82 right now... Got back in citi at 3.99 my guess was 3.95 but after missing bac by 1c last week Im leaving me more room.... I liked AIB bought it while I was at the gym for 3.45 it was down .85
    I have a sell for gtxo at .15 if it ever get there...I will wait my adv is .12 so I can get out if I need to... im thinking Ford for the same money...They only lost 5 billion last quater and that 2 billion better then expected...And they say they should turn the corner at the end of 2009...
    Anyway Have a good one... talk to you at after the market closes....Im hoping the market turns around in the after noon.. but I wouldnt count on it..

    Bill... I wanted to also say Thank you for serving... I had some friends that were also there in vietnam... Its makes me sick to think how you all were treated after you guys returned... I really respected John McCainand thought he was a true American and a Hero for his sacrafices and deserved to try to straighten this Country out with Palin...But I think you right about he was afraid of her over shadowing Him... I think she will return!

    About taxes and all, the rich pay like 90% of all of the income taxes in this country.
    As far as helping out poor people, right now I am poor, but I have the right to fail. Thats how you learn it life, through failure.

    Then you pick yourself back up and start again.

    If the government is going to reward failure and punish success, then our country is truly lost to us conservatives.

    One comment that tripp made about the dems knowing how to spend money better than repubs, got a good laugh out of me. Because our party use to be frugal, and the dems really do know how to spend and not save a dime.

    Have a good night Bill, and take it easy!! I would say no worries, but I might get a defensive response. (kidding)

    I should start a new thread over in politics, so we can try and keep the 2 seperate.

    if u want too see the diff on how rep and dem's spend just look at our deficit at the end of clinton's term compared to bush's. See once again this idea of helping people who need it being bad is kind of funny too me, i prescribe to the idea that we are all connected, what hurts one of us hurts all of us and vice versa. Rep's think that way with rich people, hey if im making lots of money then im helping the economy and creating jobs. So what your saying is the rich have a positive effect and the poor have no effect unless we help them then we are ruining the world for all the hardworkin folk. The fact is the middle class is what makes america strong, right now the middle class is disappearing into the lower middle class if not straight up bottom of the barrell, we need a strong middle class, right now its a disappearing, the end of america's "greatness" will come with the end of the middle class. if we dont help people reach the middle class and start building it up again then we are going to get even worse in the sense of the richer getting richer and the poorer getting poorer. I am not a religious person, I do not prescribe to religion or superstitious belief's, but i do think we are all connected in this mess and it is in our own benefit to look after each other. I live in a predominantly hispanic and poor neighborhood. I see these guys who have a family and they work 7 days a week whatever work they can take, but yet they can barely afford to pay their bills and eat once the bills come in. They are trying to make a better life for there children and their future grand children and they are going nowhere, and not due to there own lack of motivation. The rep's way of thnking, has a reality in some sense's but is willfully ignorant to the hard working poor, of which outnumbers heavily the lazy scammers. The fact is that no matter what happen's people who lend their ear to republican's like rush limbaugh will never ever see the good in anything a democratic cabinet does, same goes if ur a dem, although i would never ever hear a democrat during a republican administration say that they hope the president fails. I may not of been a bush fan, but come jan 2000 i was a 100 percent behind him. Whether or not i aggreed with his policies i still wanted him to succeed.

    Very good points. I respect your opinion.

    My wife is a lib, so around election time it is hell in my home. She and I are on totally different ends of the spectrum, but we get along great. My wife is a Buddhist and I have my own religious beliefs. She is an Obama fan to the max. We have been married going on 17 years, so that is about 4 elections.

    I love and respect hard working people. I am one of them. I get dirty every day and have to scrub the crap off. I have many Hispanic friends that do the same thing.

    I am for any hard working person to get ahead. I don't like slackers though and I don't like government in my life. I am kind of amazed how many blue collar workers are actively into stocks here. That is a good thing.

    So anyway, everything looks ok today in the market considering it is in the red.

    Do you have any suggestions for buys today? I have a hot $91 to spend, lol. I just looked at AIB and it is down .93, wow! It is at 3.3799. Maybe I will wait till later today and see what it does.

    sounds like u have a similar situation with your wife that i hav with my family, i hope you guys dont argue as much as we do, it sure does put a cramp on our relationships, but im guessing its not as bad for you since you dont think obama is the anti-christ like certain people i know lol.
