I've felt like hell what seems like forever but I'm going to be pounding a few with my GB's at the bar. :banned:

 
DDD & SSYS :topcat:

Feel like making a gut trade and selling but Earnings for both are 11/4 so I think the worse is baked in. Will probably sell right after and take a substantial loss but luckily for me, I have plenty of gains to offset for 2015.

ETA

I plan on buying back after 30 days.

"R" word starting to be thrown around as revenue forecasts being lowered.

Revenue is already down across the board YoY, guidance isn't to pretty either.

Doesn't matter though, as long as the Fed is here, all is okay - They'll be continuing what they do this week, remaining vague while we know they aren't moving on any hikes for the foreseeable future.

Most of you may view as a gamble as opposed to investing, but just bought some ELTP. I posted earlier asking about the chart when it was .21-.22, is now just under .25

Is a pharma co working on abuse resistant/abuse deterrent technology. Have a drug in efficacy stage of phase III, many others in the pipeline as well. OTC stock so definite risk but most of the executive management is from Big Pharma (Actavis, notably). Good thing is they already generate revenues from generics and licensing/milestone payments, so it's not like they just hemorrhage cash. Took a small position of 13,000 shares but hoping to buy more soon.

Soooooo any idea why there's FINALLY some buying? Not complaining, pretty happy about this. :)

Me too. I bought and sold a lot of SSYS and made some good money. Then I was out for a while when it went over $100. So when it went down to $79, I bought back in. When it dropped all the way down to $35, I figured I better get some more. And now of course it's at $25, so that's pretty sweet.

 
What do I do with IBM? Another crushing day after an SEC probe was announced. I guess I am priced in so it doesn't matter and might as well just hold it forever. Down 28% over the last year and rated a buy or outperform by many people. Even while I type this, the TV guy says it screams buy because it is so cheap.

What will the fed say today?

"Conditions are improving, we are getting closer to liftoff, and every meeting is live (rates can be raised at anytime)." Book it.

Translation; Rates might never ever come off of zero ever again.

One thought on the rate decision and how it could impact housing (this is all based on rates ever normalizing, which feels doubtful):

If the Fed ever does make the tiny insignificant .25 hike that they are apparently terrified to make, it will cause a small jump in rates and push them closer to the 4% range again. When this happens, all of the 'on the fence' buyers will come racing in. When this happens, It will be another jolt into the already scorching rise of home prices. Everyone will see this as a good thing and an image of a healthy housing market and economy. As the rates continue to rise and reach the 5-5.5% range (which is really as high as I think they could ever get to ever again), the demand and affordability will take a gigantic hit. This will in turn push prices back down, probably to a range that would mimic a 3.5% interest rate. One thing that everyone always forgets, the rates can change, the price you paid can not.

It might take years to come to fruition, but that is my prediction on the normalizing of rates and the impact it'll have on housing.

But the FFR will never go ever 1% again, so this is all just hogwash.

Do you really believe this, I don't know that i do? I know that history has shown this to be the case however, i think that the housing market has forever changed. I think it would take a lot more than 25 bps to cause this to happen. also, with the loan market as tight as is it, if there is a 50-100 bps increase how many people are priced out if even by a slight margin. i am very curious to see how the next 10-year pan out.

DDD CEO resigned yesterday, I'm out. That's not a good sign and a loss of $8720. :cry:

Dipping in here on oil stocks. Also midstream MLP's which are not really tied to oil prices are looking really nice here.

Huge long term opportunity.

You were a little early. I started buying MLPs in the last week or so. YTD MLPs were down ~20-40%. I am buying with dividend yields between 10-14%.

 
We run a VERY concentrated portfolio (which isn't for everybody and is damned hard to market). Having a rough year, -18% YTD coming into October. Our second largest position got hammered in Aug/Sept for a really stupid reason unrelated to business at hand. This company is releasing their Q3 numbers today. Just leaked out. They blew the numbers out of the water. Hoping this turns us around....


Intertain - IT:CN (hard to buy stateside...Schwab won't allow it because it's 'gambling related' :rolleyes: ...like Casino stocks aren't? Gimme a break).
