Get this... the 800 thousand dollars lost this quarter on interest, while still maintaining a profit in excess of last years quarte... only resulted in a net loos of 3 cents per share. Yet.. it dropped much further. This may bounce hard. Checking any change in institutional lenders to see if a hedge fund got out. I love these as they tend pop hard once hedgie out and shorters hit it. Nice.

yeppers check out the ibox got some good plays there, u might look into :)

[analogdog]

If you trend it right, and don't ignore the obvious buy and sell signals... you can almost always end up green.

[Mustang678]

In his dog house board, Right?

[Wick]

Ive lost a ton myself, mostly due to investing in pink sheet companies, imo... Im going to invest in undervalued big board stocks, stock that had a big selloff get in for the bounce once it finds its bottom and then out again after it goes up a bit.... IMO playing the bigboards is a real good move u wont be sorry, Analogdogs board has a few of our top picks for undervalued stocks and ones to watch :)

[Mustang678]

no problem, but I am not real good at this stock thing. Lost so much in another stock. I guess I should just continue to teach PE and coach. All though I wish I would of gone into business and stocks.

[analogdog]

Got one... see the sig. If you find any good ones... lemme know. We have been doing very well so far. Welcome aboard.

[Wick]
