You'd have to be semi-retarded to put money in the markets now.

What would you invest in right now?

Until the market sees a significant correction you should not be buying long term investments. I'm a trader btw so I would love to talk shop lol

I'm not a trader but I know a volatile market especially with the euro countries, it kills us. Example is the day before we were NYSE was up today it's down -120. We've taken a huge hit in our mutual funds and 401k. I'm not a big risk taker.

I am half trader, half investor.

Through careful study, one can (not necessarily will, but can) make money in any market condition. Not that I always succeed (I have gotten killed the last couple days on CHK, which I am long on) but I win more than I lose.

Glad I sold CMG at 400, before today.

Actually, I am trying to study both. Sort of approach the matter from two different perspectives.

There is so much to learn, and sometimes I just go with a "gut feeling"

what is brex?

does anyone invest in the companies making unmanned drones for the us military?

It was a phony Canadian gold mine. Stocks skyrocketed for a couple of months then they found that it had minimal amount of gold. Ceo and president cashed out before the truth came out, making hundreds of millions. Everyone else took a bath.

Some folks in the investment world call that a "pump and dump," but that term would have so many different meanings on this forum.

We've only seen a 11% correction to date, most of that has been recovered.

There has been some massive blow ups on individual stocks: TPX, RAX, CMG, NFLX, WYNN, GMCR, LVS, IBM, INTC, SNDK

Same thing happened last year, the market rallied up on low volume going into options exp (ended this week). After options exp things got really ugly. I expect the same result this yr and would not be surprised to see a repeat of 2008.

Protect your profits, put stop losses in so you're positions aren't underwater. You can always buy back at the lows.

Their CEO said food sales should better in the colder months. How about selling prime meat in those burrito bowls. They should me fatty chicken for $8, and I haven't been back in over a year. And they are Colorado (fucking hate this state) base.

Never marry a stock, 'investing' is pretty outdated.

I've always been afraid to invest in a stock. Probably because I don't know enough.

How illegal is it to invest in industries to buffer your losses, I.E. if your a transit company worried about high fuel prices, why not buy up fuel stocks to counter any changes in the market.

Good post. Most people in the market don't belong there. They hire an investor to invest their money and have no clue what he/she is doing. Talk about taking a chance. Silly.
