      You're right. Too risky.

        I'm still in cash.

        My old favorite, DHB got pounded again last week. It makes me wonder how low it'll go. The outlook for the company is great but the managment sucks.

        I haven't really had much time to do a lot of research this past week, but I have looked at CMN. I'll be watching this one next week. This is a good time to get a bargain on a future Mr Market winner!

          Sold the Beatles record for $1,250 to a Beatles fanatic in France. Let's see now...I paid .10 and sold for $1,250. How much profit is that??? Man, if only my stocks would do that I'd be huger than Mr Market!

          If I figured it right that would be a return of 1,250,000%

            Now that's a nice profit
            I wonder how much it'll go for when it ages another 42 years. Probably a lot more than 2x what you got, but hey, I'm sure your trading prowess will more than exceed any appreciation of that antique
            Well done Webs.

              Thanks Spike!
              The profit from the record sale will go towards my new trading account, which will definitely make more than the record would have over the next few years.
              In the meantime, I'll be hitting the yard sales and thrift stores for my next valuable find! Maybe an Elvis record....

                Wow...this market just keeps going down. It's kind of cool to be sitting in cash and watching the bargains take shape. I'll be looking for stocks that are being beat down and for new leaders forming.

                One stock that is getting knocked down is DHB. I would like to see DHB get down to the $13 dollar range before I start to consider it a buy again. It is possible though, that it could bounce back up from here. We will soon see.

                TZOO....What can I say but...ouch. I'm glad I'm not long on that one. I think TZOO will continue to head down.

                I like BBW, but I won't touch it at these levels. It also on the IBD top 100, which makes it even more dangerous.

                One of my favorite OTC stocks is RSSYF.OB. I like the product and the potential of it. This will be one to watch this year, just not a buy yet.

                SIRI might look good today, but I won't touch it until after earnings. I'm glad to have made a killing on it last year, but I would use caution on it for now. I think it will flounder around until Sept or Oct, and then start another big runup. The Howard Stern deal will be getting ready to kick and the Christmas sales will be getting ready to warm up. I will buy SIRI this Summer when interest is low.

                I consider the market selloff as an opportunity. I am fully expecting a gain of no less than 100% for 2005.

                Webs...

                P.S. This is a repost of my latest post on my IBD thread.

                  Webs,

                  We knew TZOO was done when it made #1 on IBD list. In any bear market, that list is a short list, and #1 is the #1 target.

                  SIRI--I was wrong. I thought it'd be $4.50 by now . . . .

                  AAI--gotta love that stop!

                  • Not sure, but I think SIRI reports Wednesday. Sometimes shorts will cover before earnings; this sometimes will lead into a nice swing trade or DT. Watch a couple of stocks that have been getting hammered before earnings. Oh I forgot this only works when it works. Shorts really are not sure what SIRI will report.

                              Lots of those ones on ebay, so value is low. Obviously the trick is to dig up the rare old ones

                                I have a Meet The Beatles album also. It's not worth as much, unless you have a copy that's in mint condition. There is one on Ebay that is still sealed that is up to about $500, but otherwise it's probably worth about $150.

                                My copy of "Introducing The Beatles" was rare because the back of the album. There were only a few thousand printed with the "ad back", which turned out to be what I had. I bought it at a yard sale about 12 years ago, so it was just a lucky find. I bought it with the intentions of turning a profit.

                                IIC, here's the link to my auction if you want to check it out. There's a few pictures of the album.
