Hi RR! Just happen to come over......wondering what is going on with SI. I have not been able to get on for 2 days. Do you know anything or are you able to get on??
dealer
Yo Dealer! You lurking on the alternate Porch site?
You making money this week?
RR
Hey Cactus! You over here? RR (eom)
Good to know we got a place to come to when SI is down.
Now..... where was Dealer?
Wonder why she didn't wander over here!
RR
Hi jpg: Tough loss for the Hogs last weekend.
We had "Cheater Refs" !!!!!!!! (g)
I was there. Saw the horrible calls. Awful.
Worst 3 calls I believe that I've ever seen in one game.
RR
RR,
That's some glitch SI has.
Tough loss for the Hogs last weekend.

Hey, any Porchers over here with SI being down?
RR
RR,
There has been quite a bit of disbelief of this rally since it began in October, at least on the message board.
On the other hand, sentiment surveys (i.e. Investor's Intelligence) are showing historically high bullish to bearish sentiment. Go figure.

John, hope you been making some money in this market.
Wild, isn't it, trying to square root this market with the gurus going nuts.
I wouldn't be surprised to see it pull back for a breather then head up a bit more.
RR
Ha! Just trying to keep up with you, jpg!
What's that you say.... "got to keep'em guessing?" (g)
Aloha!
RR
RR,
You're one resourceful dude indeed.
Aloha.

Been doing good trading the SPX.
Still in a channel.
I still think it wants to test 950 again.
Nice if it does. Breaks through this time, and should run.
Enough steam left?
Will watch it Tuesday, time permitting, for going long again.
RR
Anybody studying charts this holiday weekend?
Cautious about a pullback for trading purposes, but some charts still look very strong.
Sitting on the highest cash position in weeks in the trading part of the pie. Took profits last week.
RR
Morning Porchers! SI is not working here this morning. JPG, I think that I saw you lurking around on another IHUB thread, so I know you're around.
Beautiful day here. Outstanding.
RR
RR,
When I read about (and see footage of) tornadoes, I'm relieved that we only have to deal with earthquakes in CA.
jpg
Howdy jpg! The one yesterday was a little one. Ended up maybe 15 miles away, south of me. Damage limited to a car dealership but it was $15 million worth!
The one a couple of weeks ago that I also wrote about was only about 3 miles north of me. It caused huge destruction. A wonder nobody got killed in that one. Lots of homes destroyed. 160 mph. That one was close. Stayed on the ground 6 or 7 miles.
Good to see you ventured over here. Was wondering if I could raise anyone.
RR
RR,
So how close did it get to you?
jpg
Damage reports now coming in. Yep, it touched down.
Murrey, I was just typing the above and the power went off for a few minutes. Had to retype this.
Raining here now. Watching it via live cam on top of the office buildings down in the city. Coming my way now but should track about 3 miles east.
Think I'll go watch the sky here now.
RR
Murrey, just a few minutes after I finished the last post to you about the tornados, the sirens went off in the city with a funnel on the ground. Looks like it will track south of the homestead about 10 miles but there is a second line behind it that looks to be coming more our way.
Whew..... tornado alley.
I know I've mentioned to the SI Porch in the past that several years ago, a tornado blew away the second floor of our home here. They love this ridge line.
Just went out on the deck and looked. Nasty cloud. I can see it now 26 miles away in the city. Too far away to see a funnel, but a nasty low wall cloud.
RR
Muerry, you doing OK up there in that mansion in the hills? Lots of bad weather been moving near you.
Had 160 mph in that tornado two weeks ago. Was 3 miles away. Had 45 mph at the house.
Just had a line move by us hours ago again. One twister, no touch down.
RR
Hello Dealer! You check over here anymore?
I see that SI is down.
Thought I'd come over here and dust the Porch off a bit.
RR
I guess dey don't think so Bob <ng>
Puts and calls RR, managing to eek a living. Thanks for asking! Hey, that jetskiing was a blast! We had a great time together that day. Sounds like you are working your plan, and doing well with the "turtles". Zeev was having a great time with JnJ the other day also. Are you aware of his thread here? Very short term trading oriented by and large, but he also has longer term holdings he terms "core" which have done very well from what I have seen. Nice to see Tom posting again, isn't it? Guess we had a hiccup on SI today. Take care and best of success! tim
I'm back on SI now too jp.
Ö¿Ö
Missouri SI back on the air.
give it time. my password works like usual.
I got in thru a back door, but it won't acknowledge my login ID..... I can only read threads..... after I search for them.....
OOF
Ö¿Ö
Wild day RR. Still making $$, but it sure has been tough.
Don't work too hard.
Hey, are you in town or the burbs? You going home on the weekends?
goober Ö¿Ö
RR,
<How ones deals with adversity and overcome is essential to success.>
I'm a powerful believer in that notion (particularly when it comes to one's character), both from personal experience and by observation. Some of the people I admire most are family and friends that I've seen conquer difficult setbacks.
jpgill
jpgill, I view those bumps in the road as challenges. You don't learn those kinds of things from the books.
There's no substitute for experience.
How ones deals with adversity and overcomes those challenges is essential to success.
It starts with having the proper attitude, which includes that confidence you mentioned. A powerful point in my view.
Take care....
Rick
RR,
Thanks for the kind wishes. Sometimes bumps in the road are opportunities in disguise.
We've got plenty of work and plenty of confidence (and hopefully plenty of humility -g-).
Take care.
jpgill
BTW, jpgill, on the business, glad you are expanding and doing great.
That's super!
You know there will be bumps along the way, but if you have a good plan, a good model, execute it, yet be flexible when warranted, hey, stay the course and move forward.
Those glitches that come along, well, just bumps in the road, just bumps in the road....
Rick
Maybe is moving from the west to the east, huh?
those stops are critical to preserve capital.
Stops have become a religion to me!
That's a theology lesson I've paid dearly for.
Got the world by the tail, jpgill.
Lot of doom and gloomers around, especially on SI, but I don't give them the time of day. Not in my life plan.
Bring it on.
I've got a lot to be thankful for.
RR
Murrey, well, I guess it depends on your time frame, too.
I have not followed BEAS as closely in recent months as I use to, but I think it will be a good one long term if you add a bit a long the ways.
But, in this market, when you're not sure, those stops are critical to preserve capital. The swings have been huge on some of these issues, Murrey.
RR
murrey,
Its back up in NorCal. I ran a test PM to myself and it went through. Not many new posts yet though (must be down all over still).
jpgill
RR,
Times are good here. Business booming. Plans being executed.
How about you?
jpgill
Not for me jp, I'm in Missouri.
SI not up for me, jpgill. Must be spotted. Bet they have some routing/server problems.
How ya doing, jpgill?
RR
Havn't seen a thing in the way of numbers. ihub is new to me. Don't know what's going on with Go2Net. The whole site is down. Oh well, after yesterday, I'm not going to do any more stupid "hunch" buys like I did with SEBL & BEAS. Good thing I put stops in that got me out with a little more than my ego damaged.
In the meantime, know anyone who wants to sell a hardware store or dry cleaner?
RR,
SI back up.
jpgill
MSFT #'s out yet, Murrey? Don't see report on CNBC yet. RR
Tim, u over here? Just ckg. U making any moooooney? RR
Hi Murrey:
I see the weather on the map. Hope all is well back home.
Family is in our place in Colo. Sent them out there awhile back and I'm in D.C.
Will have to check with the house sitter.
We live in toronado alley. Second level of house was blown away by one years ago. Could tell lots of those kinds of stories.
So, anytime we're away and see there's weather in the area, we perk up.
Maybe SI be back up soon.
How ya doin' Champ?
Rick
Rick...just tried to post to you here. ihub was slow to the point of not working. It's back up. Having a little weather here, but everything is moving to the east.
Hi Dealer! Just checking while in between meetings here in D.C. and I see that SI is down.
Just trying over here.
RR
Hi Tim: Hey, if you feel that you need to close a position, do so! I tell ya, that ole gut feeling has saved my you know what many times.
Besides, it's good to take a breather when you feel that way.
Hope you have a great weekend, Tim.
RR
