Frankly, I had expected better things from this earnings season. Sure, the quarterly confessions of many companies are better, but better or not, they’re not moving the needle on my cash flow meter.
Monday may change all that. I expecting some sort of bounce-back from the Goldman Sachs fiasco and the shellacking it gave my holdings, [...]

This Rally is about to Run off its Rails
March 25th, 2010 · No Comments · Runaway Trading, Stock Trading, Uncategorized

April 30th, 2009 · No Comments · Stock Trading
I’m worried. I admit I’m also a trifle paranoid too, because this market has been soaring too fast, too far, for my comfort. Anybody with any memory of market behavior knows this kind of non-stop, money-making, free-for-all can’t last forever. Just ask anybody who was trading, especially tech stocks, circa 2000.
Sooner or later, all bagholders know, the [...]
