Not sure why they would do that

Yep- on to Denver- hoping that will be a better game to watch

Powerful statement here:

Friday had some of a capitulation type feel, with 944 New York Stock Exchange issues hitting a 52-week low. It is only the fourth day since the end of 2008 that the number is above 900. It also was the seventh day in a row of more than 500 NYSE stocks at their lowest in at least a year, a streak not seen since October 2008 -the month following the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers.

Yep- I have 25 stocks and only one (TCK coming off a low) was green today

Wish I had $2bill to write down, lol

I'm guilty- Stopped buying as I wait for the cost of goods to reflect the consumer price

BP, CSX, TCK had some decent volume today with big gains.

GPRO touched $11.00 this morning- ouch

CSX- CSX Corporation (CSX) today announced fourth quarter net earnings of $466 million, a 5 percent decline from $491 million in the same period of 2014, or $0.48 per share, down 2 percent from $0.49 in the prior year.

Anyone still holding Ford stock?

Ford declared a $1B supplemental cash dividend on Tuesday, but its outlook for 2016 profit failed to exceed estimates, sending its stock down 2.7% in after-hours trading. The automaker said it expected its 2015 operating profit (excluding special items) to be in the upper half of a prior $10B-$11B guidance range, and 2016 operating profit to be at least as high. Ford's (NYSE:F) "guidance is in line or below what was expected," said Matthew Stover of Susquehanna Financial.

Crude futures are on the rise for the first time in eight days, with U.S. oil pulling further away from the $30-level breached last session following data from the American Petroleum Institute. According to the industry group, oil inventories unexpectedly fell last week, sliding 3.9M barrels to 480M. Also on tap: The EIA publishes its weekly inventories data at 10:30 a.m. ET. Brent +2.5% to $31.63/bbl; WTI +2.4% to $31.17/bbl

Was this a dead cat bounce, or is the market really going to turn positive? I'm thinking short sellers are starting to cover

I think it all hinges on China- which is shaky right now

Kinder Morgan's recent announcement that it's slashing its dividend 75% was a bombshell that potentially calls into question the entire industry's business model. When faced with such mounting uncertainty and fear, investors in EnLink Midstream Partners (NYSE:ENLK) and its general partner, EnLink Midstream LLC (NYSE:ENLC), might be questioning the safety of their own 12.1% and 8.1% respective payouts. To shed some light on this issue, let's look at the four most important things that will determine whether EnLink Midstream's distributions survives potentially rock-bottom energy prices in 2016 and beyond.

Looks like my departure from the sector was timely :0

Sold SBLK at $13.81 for a 20% gain from the r/s shares around October 2012.

Sold GLBS at 4.25 for a 10% gain from several buys in 2012- what a waste of time, lol. Shipping stock that took that long to get out of

But, I did loss my A$$ on EXM in 2013 with a 96% loss of value

Back on Radar- looking for an entry around $10.


U.S. Silica Holdings, Inc. (SLCA) -NYSE
15.24 Down 1.62(9.61%) 12

-25 wind chill. Doubt they are used to that

seems nothing is safe nowadays

Overall, 2015 lost 10% in the portfolios. Not as bad as I expected

You would think with the slump in commodity pricing, it would be cheaper to make things- and create an opportunity to increase profits by passing on to the consumer.

What sector can do that? Retail?

KSS is coming back around

Down almost 80% from the high two years ago
Transocean Ltd. (RIG)
11.18 Down -0.97(-7.98%)

short term? I don't see a lot of value. Huge negative cash flow, only $8 book value with over $2bil debt. 50% short on the stock says half the investors out there think it isn't a good investment.

Every metric I use says stay away, fwiw

a little green in the sea of red:


Kohl's Corp. (KSS) -NYSE
49.30 Up 1.67(3.51%) 3:45PM EST

lol- yep. Happy New Year to all!

Dead Skunk put up the highest point total in the league this season (including playoffs) and upset Hyma's Heros 192 to 152, overcoming a 16-point spread. This makes it two in a row for Dead Skunk against Hyma's Heros. Their last matchup was a 111 to 85 win in Week 10. On top of the loss, Hyma's Heros got zero points from Mason Crosby.

Smooth Moves by Dead Skunk
•By the beard of Zeus, that's a lot of points for a defense. With 43 points, the Arizona Cardinals Defense had the highest point total to date for all defenses.
•You see what happens when you keep the laces out? Stephen Gostkowski scored 8 points, the highest K score in the league this week.
•Jordan Reed felt like the Rodney Dangerfield of football: "no respect at all" with this week's projected points. He scored the fifth-most points in the league and beat his projected point total by 104.0%, the ninth-highest percentage in the league.
•Miss Cleo, is that you? The 16 points scored by Rueben Randle, who Dead Skunk picked up this week, beat his projected point total of 12.43 by 28.7%.
•Dead Skunk had 7 of their 9 starters exceed their projected points.


•Don't you hate that person that always has to one-up everybody? Hyma's Heros scored 152 points and lost. It is the second-highest losing score in the league this season.

Congrats- Champ

I scored 38 points over my projected (17 point favorite) and lost? The "Crew" worked me over, with a 74 overage from his projected score.

next year- I'll gonna crush you all, bahaabahhaaa

Back from our trip to Utah. Yesterday was a hellish drive through Nebraska and Iowa

I need Bell to fumble, loss yardage and break something to win now, lol.

Hyam's Heros- 168
Stone's Crew- 169

the whole sector scares the poop outta me. They cut the divvy, still bleeding and commodity prices continue to erode. Estimates have been chopped in half going forward.

That being said, they do have a book value around $14 and positive cash flow, making them attractive as a takeover target around $16, imo

One to take off the watch list- CINCINNATI and MILWAUKEE, Dec. 18, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The Kroger Co. (KR) and Roundy's, Inc. (RNDY) today announced the successful completion of Kroger's tender offer to purchase all outstanding shares of Roundy's common stock for $3.60 per share in cash. The tender offer expired at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, on December 17, 2015.

The stones are on their way to the highest score of the season- Unbelievable

lol- Yea, and he still has a couple players in the wings that could out perform/ under perform. Pins & needles

I went from a 96% sure to win to the underdog in the last hour, lol. On any given Sunday, as they say

Maybe not- Denver having a good game and he has three players that effect the outcome. Now a great predicted match up 164 vs 163

whao- Sanders (DEV) just had a huge play, giving the Stones a glimmer of hope

If Chunga played it right, would be sitting on 179 points with two players to go.

If Rivers has a good game- going to be a good match up between you two

What is the highest score for one person on a team in our league? Cam Newton is sitting on 50 points right now

Wow- Diggs came alive for MIN today after six weeks of so-so
