FWLT, AAPL, BIDU all up huge today Excellent day indeed should add another 2% to the index while the market is only up .3%
Alright, time for me to remove my subscription to this thread. Recounting every percent that goes in your favor...while you were absent last week during the carnage. Disgraceful, biased, Bob Pisani-like coverage is all that is...
nice...every stock in the index is green and upo an average of over 2% People putting money back into momo, large cap growth caps. Avoid the midcap/smallcap crap. Stick with the large caps. 10B market cap or larger. Thats why the russel 2000 and S&P midcap underperformed the dow and S&P 500. If you want to make money with stocks buy the stocks that go up. And hold them for awhile.
Hey grandpa, this is 2007. Learn to trade intraday, the ups and downs, and forget just holding onto stocks. Nothing wrong with that as secondary strategy but dont try and assume holding onto stocks is the way to actively make money. Far more compounding going on on a daily basis than holding and waiting.
RIMM 170.80 245.4 +43.67% BIDU 138.24 204.75 +48.1% CHAP 70.27 85.11 +21.1% AAPL 117.50 132.50 +12.77% GOOG 505.22 512.75 +1.5% DDM 94.99 90.48 -4.6% MA 150.29 144.82 -3.6% FWLT 104.29 108.25 +3.8% GS 233.64 177.89 -23.9% Total: 10.98% (6/14/07-8/22/07) This is staggering While the overall markets are still down 3-5% from 6/14/07 levels my index is up almost 11% RIMM, BIDU, FWLT have all rebounded huge in the past week especially. It has completely decimated the market even in the wake of the biggest selloff in five years. I anticipate the index will end the year up 27%
