Birchtree's Account Talk

Sort by newest Sort by date
I just checked my tracker position - now at #742 and +0.02% - that's a long way down from +12%. But I've got time to make it back. What would happen if Romney decides to suspend capital gain taxes for two years to jump start the economy - ZOOM. That's a bold plan for sure and it would do wonders.
 
It could be another day of riding the volatility train which means I'm more than likely be a buyer of more wall flowers. None of the professional folks have much faith in the rally - and that's good for me. They can come in later and push me higher.
 
The market is trying to hold me back today but I do have 11 dividends that are due - so they may have to suffice the heavy lifting. I think I'll take a break and go clean out my gutters for a few hours - perhaps the last hour will look promising.

Better go clean the toilets after you finish cleaning the gutters. The last hour is looking very, very bad. :blink:
 
News Headlines Super Security for Billionaires

I don't think it addresses SlideFire though. Cashiers contractors may not have the latest home security but if you watch this show you can maybe get some ideas. :)
 
Staying out of the market for today but I do have 8 dividends due and another 21 due for Friday. Waiting on the R2K to show some strength and then I'm back buying more sweet wall flowers.
 
"The extent to which the stocks in the S&P 500 trade in tandem with one another, known as correlation. peaked at 53% on June 1, according to Citigroup data, well below the 100% and 91% levels reached in 2011 and 2010, respectively." I think yesterday was close to 100% again.

i thought you always stayed in stocks?? buy and hold?? but i also know that only people who don't understand don't know when to stay away hence forth why i am still in 100% s and killed my self AGAIN three years in a row in may. you would think i would learn. keep getting rich birch its fun isn't it.my thought is the euro crisis was overshadowed by the US the last 1.5 years and now its their turn because they are usually behind us by about 1-2 years when it comes to the market adjustments. plus people should be asking "why did the Britts elect not to go with the euro" HMMMMM pounds are expensive for both US dollars and euro. so because i did not pull out and go to the garage i must stay in to see the bull rush at the end of the year.

If the rally can hold into the close it will put me in good position to select a few golden wall flowers for purchase on Friday. I'm chompin on my bit.
