He was too busy composing a set of TOU for that site...lol...
Sadly he stopped posting when Derb started posting evidence.
so far only one idiot seems pissed off or rather he's right & everyone else is wrong & the others just suffer from Tourette's
post here, there, doesn't matter.
I suspect that we can piss off more people over there though.
That wasn't the original thought for this exercise, but it turned into that.
ok...so you want replies posted here AND there? lol
Everyone watches the DOW numbers, but those are blue chip stocks that are supposed to do well. What about the rest of the market? Lots of stocks gone to hell in a handbasket.......
Just posted wondering how that no vote's portfolio was doing
yeah...and that 1 for No came on only after you posted that there wasn't one No vote...lol...prolly that Aegis dick
The point was to make the survey outside of Ihub, try to get others to read, believe and wakeup.
Survey results so far;
Are all stocks shit?
yes 85% [ 17 ]
no 5% [ 1 ]
I don't know. My broker says he needs more fees to install a new septic tank. 10% [ 2 ]
Total Votes : 20
New house prices are apparently down 34% here, existing home prices down 25%.
The leaders here said we have nothing to worry about, our banks are not affected by the US crises. Then they gave the banks 360 billion because they are apparently in trouble when there was no trouble.
all that talk over there about California makes me want to move there...except that house prices have fallen in this City by 15% over the last year...everything that happens in the US affects us here...prime drops here & then the freaking banks raise mortgage rates. Why? Cause of their "US exposure"...who gives a shit about their US exposure...me or my neighbors never defaulted so why take it out on us? Same shit re our stock market here...TD, MANULIFE etc tank big time cause of their "US exposure" and cause, well, every other stock is tanking so why not join the party...they are all shit...from real companies with strong balance sheets to the scammy PINKIES & BBs...it don't matter, they will all screw ya
When you stick your head in the sand you don't notice what is really going on around you.

The guy is a total idiot, trying to make like the California problem will be isolated to California. I don't think that he realizes the rest of the nation is bailing out California.
Thinks that the real estate problem is isolated to sub prime and investment banks only.
Derb
Looks like he might be. I think he came over originally because he thought all the new members must be the same person.
At least one guy said that we shit stock guys are the best thing to happen over there in quite a while. LOL

Have we met? lol
That idiot is the head dude of the board over there, might even be the owner....
Derb
Is there a link to the specific comments there? I don't want to sign up on a politics message board. The insaneos will probably call the black helicopters to abduct me for alien food or something.
So why don't you just make a survey here on your own board?
all stocks are shit? LOLOLOLOL...hummmmm. I'm actually starting to believe that one!
Well, I'm off to Ireland next week. It was after an October trip that I got inspiration the last time. I hope I get inspired after this trip so that I can finish it.
Thank you. How's the book coming?
I guess I should rephrase...... it attracted a few lunatics that were previously unknown to me.
We are not included in that bunch!
Well thanks to everyone that posted over there. Looks like it attracted a few lunatics.
Actually, I was referring to here, not there.
It seems some people here are not very fond of Mr Colbert.
I only stumbled upon The Colbert Report and The Daily Show a couple weeks ago. Now I use them as information souces for all I need to know about American politics...........
Everyone thinks it's political cause you put your discussion in the "Political" section of that website, Eisenstein...look at the very bottom right of the message list for your board
I guess I stepped in it.
Seems everyone thinks this is political. Oh well, bad timing
You can go over there, vote on my poll, and leave a message that you think colbert is a dickhead.
Does that work for you?
Yes.
Yes.
and maybe :)
You are letting politics cloud your vision.
All stocks are shit.
No matter the political party in charge
Why not? Guy's a dickhead, but he's funny
Colbert's site? Nah....
I'm trying to navigate that site, and have concluded that it is next to impossible to find anything at all unless you have a link to what you are looking for.
Doesn't matter. If I can just get enough people to join for the sole purpose of voting, I might be heard.
wtg bubba.

Over the last several years the SEC has implemented several measures to "help" investors.
I wonder which "investors" they have been trying to help. I know many people like myself that make a meager living trading stocks, and every single measure they have introduced has only hindered our trading and helped hedge funds with the big dollars.
A recent example. The $25K rule. I didn't know how idiotic it was until it suddenly applied to me.
2 years ago I opened a trading account with a broker for $5K. This was not my first walk in the park, I wanted to try out this new broker. Things went well and about a month ago the account was worth $27K.
With the $25K rule, that means that I can now daytrade the acount without limits.......... or so I thought. With the market fluctuating wildly my account got a Notification 171619-K, which means that even though trades were placed while the account was over $25K the day they were placed, the account value dropped under $25K the next day, with no trades being placed, and the entire account was restricted for 90 days.
If you can't make sense of the above, do not worry, it doesn't make sense.
It is simply an example of how the SEC stops the little guy from trying to make a buck.
The Ibox from that thread;
This was said several years ago. Maybe not enough people paid attention. It has been repeated over the years on the internet and is the mantra of many. Perhaps it can be used in a REPOR

When I created this thread perhaps I mistakenly assumed that everyone that might be interested in it knew my market philosphy already.
It's quite simple.
All stocks are shit
All stocks are shit

The sooner you realise this the sooner you will be able to trade properly. Got a losing position? That stock was a piece of shit. Dump it.
Got a winning position? Amazing such a piece of shit could run, sell it.
The market is all about buying and selling. If you aren't selling you aren't making money.
