GERN is moving today. I wonder if Mainehiker still holds this. Has been a serial disappointer. I have no position and don't know why it is up.
ISRG should be fun tonight.
I bet Canni is making lots of $$$ on his AAPL and TQQQ trades. :)
IRIS, old Zeev play being taken over by Danaher for $19.50 per share.
Here are a few ideas Newly, most if not all you have probably considered. From the article I was telling you about.
Quito, Ecuador
Panama City
Tulum, Mexico
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Medellin, Columbia
Queenstown, New Zealand
Granada, Nicaragua
Barcelona, Spain
Thailand

Sept 12 announcement on iphone 5 and mini pad? CRUS -- AAPL supplier had great earnings, revs AAPL
If Canni still posted here I would have learned about Andy Griffith much earlier today.
Put buying ahead of the Supreme Ct decision? Same old story for EU Summit tomorrow and Friday. Russell is strong tho.
Lots of favorite high beta stocks shot today. Still maybe get a short covering at the close.
Congrats. Does this mean you can post again? I hope so. You were missed. I miss your market calls and your handle on these fine cultural events plus who has died, etc. Please come back.
I haven't been around lately, but just looked in quick and saw this sad post canni. I hope you stick around.
Some Europe PMIs to worry about - Germany, France, Spain and Italy
Just noticed GOOG and BIDU green. Looks like we are still buying the dips.
DANG is going great. RENN weak in comparison - you called that one right zab.
BTW, I used ignore today. Not you GT. :)
New life again in WLT. Zab, your coal stocks are catching a bid.
Looks like SPX 1425 in the works. Chase for performance, end of Q window dressing, etc.
From Birinyi - if the link works you can see the charts

Noticed the Drop in Volatility?
With the 12% rise in the market since the beginning of the year one of the notable side effects has been a drop in volatility (another notable is a drop in correlation). The 50-day average high/low spread of the S&P 500 has fallen to 0.93% down from its recent high of 3.01% in October (the average daily high/low spread since 1990 is 1.36%). There have been twelve other similar instances where this measure has crossed below 1%.
Historically the market has reacted positively to a drop in volatility. Following a drop below 1% high/low spread the S&P 500 is, on average, up 4.36% over the next six months and was positive 75% of the time.
Will do. I like your idea of selling puts, but I think I have enough exposure already. Will check into tho.
So BTU is the latest in the coal space for a takeover. The past several months (year?) I've heard the same for WLT and CLF.
Hope things are well with you Joe. I've been meaning to stop by for a visit. Just back from NY makes life hectic these days.
Nice turn in the coal stocks today. Wonder if there is any juice left.
Russel has turned around today. This am was very weak. I'm not sure about closing strength. Hope you are right.
Anyone remember when Zeev asked us to help on a project of his daughter's that involved voice recognition? NUAN might have been the company for that project. At least it is in that neck of the woods. Might get a pop with ipad 3.
Is that what happened to Sally the Moose?
AAPL giveth, AAPL taketh away (from the shorts)
Think we can close green today. Reversal coming?
Is Lee down there helping him?
I'm not used to this selling. Looks and feels horrible. This too shall pass. I see green already.
dup deleted
GOOG hit too along with AAPL, but AMZN is not bad - they already took their lumps.
zab's post where he "displays" his patio furniture on the neighbor's lawn and watches that furniture "sail" from his porch is my nomination.
Cotai land not a signed off deal yet.
Just found it - Cotai land. I still don't get why Wynn didn't do so great last Q tho.
Thanks Zab. I like CLNE now - it wasn't on my radar back then. I got interested in this IPO business with all the hype about facebook.
You mentioned a WYNN article - can you point me in the direction as we wait for the stock to re-open?
I got 100 shares from the YELP ipo. Tempted to take the profit, but a sale within 30 days puts me on the bad list for future ipos. I'm not that interested in getting more long in the after-market.
Never participated in an ipo before. Exciting for me.
HAUP is up over 33% as of this writing. Old Zeev play still in business I guess.
Haven't been around much. Hope everyone is doing fine. Was going to get caught up on posts, but I gave up on that idea.
Ag stocks getting zippy.
HITK, I think this was an old Zeev play. It was down big a couple of days ago and now moving back up. Dead cat bounce? I don't know what is going on here, but find it interesting.
I think earnings were as anticipated at JPM, and with the recent run-up it was an excuse to sell since they didn't beat on revenues.
I'm not sure what you meant by the one-sided market concept. We were going up, today its down.
Love-hate relationship sums it up nicely.
Close could be interesting, unless everyone leaves early for the weekend. MLK is a recent market holiday. I like the change and looking forward to a three-day break.
It seems to me that this market wants to go up and today's Greece and S&P uncertainty is holding it at bay.
Glens Falls was my first. I'm thinking it was 1980.
