As someone who's behind on retirement and trying to catch up, please don't report back if you buy and strike gold. I don't need the extra push to swing for the fences with my eyes closed. Yeah, there's a very real chance this will double, triple, or knock it out of the park...but is the risk of it going belly up worth it? Even if it doesn't go belly up, what would I do if it drops another 25% when we start learning why the CEO left? Will I be confident enough in my vetting that it's only temporary and wait it out? Or will I drop it...magically at it's low point...and then kick myself when it proceeds to jump 50% in the following weeks?They're now trading at 50% of revenue... I mean, the math says buy.

It has been in a very narrow trading range. You have the Saudi's trying to drive the price down while you have speculators and terrorist activities driving the price up. When the price goes up, more oil will be pumped domestically driving the prioce down.St. Louis Bob - enlighten me on your method for trading SCO, you seem to do pretty good.

Yes. It was down about 4% I think and figured I would gamble on a bottom around 6% hoping to catch a bounce. NotsofastThe Big Guy said:Does it drive you nuts seeing this swing down to 55.17 an hour later? The swings still amaze me.In for 200 SCO @ $57.01

I don't think more cash is the answer although it may mitigate the issue. I believe it takes one trading session, or say an hour or two if during the day, to go through. If you sold at the bell you'd have to wait till the morning. Your account is credited the money but you don't have the money in your account. The numbers are there so you know it but you can't quickly then flip that into a buy because the number could change based on the time delay it takes to have the trade go through.So Vanguard sent me this message after I went in and out of the UCO so fast after selling BABA : Good Faith Violation: A trading violation has occurred due to trading activity in your cash account in which security(s) was sold before payment was received.
Guessing that they want me to carry more cash in my portfolio or have snough cash to hold if I am going to come in and out of things before the settlement time elapses.

don't take this the wrong way, but I just want to know what you're going to do so I can do the opposite. $$$10 year rates up to 2.26%, in early April they were 1.8%.
My gut says they could touch up to 3% by end of year. I think the immediate economic forecast is pretty decent and the Fed won't have much of a choice but to make a hike in September. The market consensus is calling December the timing, so we'll see. The Fed beige book which comes out tomorrow will almost certainly be dovish IMO, so the rates will fall tomorrow.
Anyone invested in oil concerned about the OPEC meeting later in the week? I think oil could get slaughtered at weeks end, even though we know they aren't taking their foot off the gas, hearing it from them will still make the market react aggressively. UGA is a long term play for me, but I think it'll be in the $38 range by Friday, down from the almost $41 it closed at today. I'm holding bc as mentioned it is a long term play and I'm not buying/selling/buying/selling this one, but still ready for a violent swing this week.

Always do the opposite of LHUCKS.
My personal bias is to pick one or two leading companies in a sector vs go for an ETF with a bunch of stuff that is not necessarily as purely tied to the investing theme as you might think or like. To play cybersecurity, I wouldn't choose companies like SAIC, Cisco,Juniper, Splunk, Harris, etc., even if they have some presence in the space.TripItUp said:I'm looking at the following

I like how there was almost a 12 hour gap between the last post of the thread before his in this thread he had never posted in. So basically he found that post on page 3 of the FFA to reply with his meaningless garbage.
I think Doc visited my profile page, found my response to Dentist, and then posted his response. I guess I'm pretty far under his skin... Then again, my analysis of his real life is pretty spot on.
