Stocks are killing me.
 

ORCL went as low as 8.88 a share today.
I thought 16 was a good buy.

Fuck never try and catch a falling knife.

Software stocks are market dogs, and they have been for 2 years.
Just when you think it cant get any worse, and hit bottom it sinks even more.

Well gambling didnt make you any money, I guess you need to try a few new things.

I have always admired Risk takers..You will catch the next train..



















Queer

CSCO also a mut.
All tech is just pure shit.

Oddly enough the food industry has been striving and it seems most of the former tech investors have moved thier money into food stocks like changs, cheesecake factory, and even YUM.

WTF?
I guees the moral of the story is, invest where everyone else is, invest with the latest fad.

Internet was in, then went out.
Then mirco ship was in then out
Now software in now out.

Just like fashon, dont get caught wearing plad shirts and striped socks when the fashon ends or you'll be down 200k in 6 months.

im gunna take a break for a while.
See you all later.

casino stocks are doing well

held it

time for a beer

:boid

What about porn stocks? :winkwink: :winkwink:

I may know of a good stock to get into at ground level...:thumbsup

Very true with stocks... had to learn the hard way...

orcl is a good stock, think about long term possibilites.

right now lots of stocks are going down..

your telling me look at CORV not software but you would think a fiber companies stock couldn't get any lower especially since the bought out some french company 2 months ago kept it for a month and a half then shut it down

Buy PRVT on nastaq..i dont need to say more..

What's a mirco ship?

Boneprone......
you want to make some money?
buy IWOV at $3.20 (its at 3.80 now)
hold it for 1-2 month
if the stock does not gain 250% at least, i will have my sister suck your cock for you. This is a stock ive been buying/selling for 2 years....

A boat for "little people"???

Anyone trading Ericsson (telecom)?? I just lost like 50% of my investment with them :(

Not too many of those, that could be a reason the stock tanked.

telecom is one of the worst industries out there right now
everyone, stay stay from them

lol

Don't buy stocks if you will need the money in less than 3 or 4 years.

ok, thats a very inaccurate statement.....
but could you elaborate more?

Exactly! These companies just don't do appropriate market research....

I stuck with paypal doing quite well with them since there initial

Bneprone, does it make you happy if I tell you that you are not the only one? I good have bought a very nice new car of al lthe money I've lost :waaaaahh

How on earth did you end up with Ericsson stocks? They cuted like half their staff last year and have been going downhill for a longtime. Now they are cutting again, could be a looooooooong time befor those stocks rise again. Not even the sony merge bumped it much

Hmmm, reminds me of this industry.

so true

never take stock advice, do your own research :winkwink:

invest in companies with good fundamentals. if u don't know how to say fundamentals, let alone lknow what it is, get someone to manage your money.

Yeah, you would think that would work, but I am here to say it does not.

Invested in GTE for 25 years, had over $100,000, with great dividends that you could count on. Then the fuckers decided to merge with Bell Atlantic to form Verizon. Value now . . . . about $40,000

stocks are worse than gambling

GAMBLING works!

Nothing inaccurate about it.

If you know you're going to need certain money in the next 3 or 4 years, don't invest it in stocks. Find something else.

People think stocks are supercharged CD's which they're not. Used properly, a stock portfolio is the only way to reach your long term financial goals.

Utilized improperly, including buying stocks with money needed in the short term, it's retarded. You might as well go bet on Monday Night Football.

If you have money to piss away and don't mind the risks, then yea...that's fine. If you have money you NEED (college tuitition fora child in 3 years, etc), find something else to do with it.

edited for me being a retard.

Call me a pansy but I like bonds, GIC's, and long term investments.
There is no chance to get rich, but you will never lose money either.

For every person who sinks 10K into a stock and walks away with 100K 5 years later, you seem to find 10 people in the opposite situation, who invest alot of money and the stock goes to pot.

Just put 10% of your income into some safe investment and the interest will slowly grow.

Or maybe 5% into something safe, and 5% in the risky stuff is you like.
I just think its crazy to invest everything in stocks cause they can do very well, then drop to nothing over night.

aol - .80 a share
enron up .02 a share

go figure :1orglaugh

I won't say that after tonight :mad:

WCOM closed at $1.79 a share today...

Remember when WorldCom and UU.net were cool? Or not...

My stocks are up, and I'm lovin the news, they just merged for the second time and tripled yet again...

Damn I love inside deals.

:thumbsup

ur suppose to diversify. if their price dropped that much their fundamentals were not very good. wireless companies carry a lot of debt and do some wacky accounting.

i hope u don't mean insider trading? that shit can get u a paid vacation courtesy of the sec.

they are not a wireless company
