"The next earnings announcement from ABK is expected the week of February 22, 2010." According to my TDA account. :)
I can wait... I had a lot fewer shares when my WM became WAMUQ.
The longer it drags out the more I HOARD. :)
Actually I left L.A. after WM was stolen. My life has been WONDERFUL since making that decision. I was able to sleep on family and friends couches while I made my money back. I've got two FT jobs one that provides me an apartment. I've bought a new about to recalled car. (LOL) My account would still be up over 100% from my total investment even if all my WAMUQ disappeared and went to .00001
I made good choices and followed through on my plan.
JPM made BAD choices and followed through on their plan.
In the END it's only money, death and taxes.(LOL)
It's the difference you made while here and the lives you touch that matter.
Imagine that when you die, you experience your life from the people you've encountered and directly affected.
I wouldn't FEAR that end, but many can not say the same thing... Too bad because this is the only temple/body they'll get this time around. I wonder what the death of a corporation would feel like to those RESPONSIBLE? HMMMmmm
(LOL) I'm usually the guy who doesn't realize she wants to go with ME to the movie. (LOL)
Which is fine because I prefer to see movies alone. Usually I'll just frustrate her so much she pounces, kind of like what will happen with WAMUQ one day right before court. :P
I've picked up 400,000 WAMUQ's since 10/23. I love TRANSPARENCY maybe some DISCOVERY will make the banks as transparent. (LOL) :)

Though my account varies WIDELY with every penny, I would not even consider flipping for a few pennies. If we TRIPLE, then I'd be tempted to sell a quarter or third of my position. However I have a number I refuse to go below and I wouldn't be 100% out of this for even a second. I bought all the extra shares to flip, but the longer this has been held down the more I feel it's manipluated and that makes me ANGRY! Why would they care, unless they know what we suspect. IMO
So johnny, do you have any shares to flip? Or are you just trying to help us out of the goodness of your heart...
It'll probably dip but my I-phone had an interesting article about an email with JPM and another bank. I think the street will PUMP us soon, because they've probably loaded their peeps and are ready to let it run making anyone out CHASING it. If we dip enough for me to go RED or even close. I'll get even more shares. I'm Green 54% in my WAMUQ and I've got other stocks that could become instant powder if need be. When I get ANGRY I get more WAMUQ, so "go ahead...MAKE MY DAY." (Clint)
WOW look at the volume on those. (LOL) Thanks but no thanks PP. I was in this when it started (WM, and not with nearly as many shares) and I'll be here til the END. Whatever and whenever that end may be...
I would assume that if they set a BUY at .053 for 107 shares and then a SELL of 107 shares for .053 that it would trigger that if done from different accounts and computers. Then if they can see stop losses they just set a buy in at that loss number for those shares and BYE BYE. :( I could be totally wrong, but that would be my best guess.
I remember a couple weeks ago when they took it all the way down wiping out stop losses. I remember one guy saying his triggered but NOBODY here said that they were able to buy on that dip. So that tells me that the MM have a scary amount of control. So I too have KUNG FU grip on my WAMUQ. :)

Actually a few million dollars would just bridge the gap for the elite to profit from us. The middle class is changing and the elite have homes and cars to sell to the new WAMUillonaires.
I was in when my WM became WAMUQ. Don't feel bad for me because I KNOW that any money invested in the market is gambling and I never risk/invest what I'm not willing to lose. It's the employees who worked for WAMU and didn't diversify out of their own companies shares that I feel bad for. hopefully they held and all will be rectified soon. :)
I bought a small taste for the quarter results. I expect good numbers a pop and that we'll stay above a buck to keep listing. However if the quarter is bad we'll fall and then I'll buy more than a taste.
You go Uzual.
It might take a bit because there's so much off-topic stuff that it's hard to see through the fog.
WAMUQ had a good day today. Maybe we continue up, maybe not. Either way I appreciate all the posters who've contributed to this board and form. Even the ones that make me question my investment, because without them I'd be more worried. (LOL):)
I don't want JPM's stock. I did before all of this went down, but I don't TRUST them or anything they do. If it's cash then I'd be happy, if it's stock, then I want more than double what I'm willing to settle for with cash. 1 for 1 because JPM would just tank in that case because current JPM stockholders would be selling, JPM would be shorting themselves and WAMU sharholders would be selling. That would tank the market out of fear. I wouldn't mind a cash and stock swap. The cash would keep me happy and I'd hold JPM stock until the next republican president. Then sell and pay less tax. (LOL)
Not me. :)
Hey Fishy I know many of us are deep in WAMUQ and some won't be able to move funds until a settlement. However my observation has been that the pattern mentioned #813 in the Palay is usually close to .05 the next day before it bounces. Even if it's a BK "rumor" like SIRI it hit .05 before the bounce. I know because I was in it when it went down and I bought more for the bounce I took my profits ASAP, but should have held in hindsight. :( A few that didn't hit that number were FNM, FRE and AIG. However I believe CIT, SIRI, WM, LEH all hit close and below that number.
I'm in ABK now, and if we have a double dip I'd say it's primed for play. Listed companys bounce harder IMO. Even a delisting would drop it like a rock.
My experience is born with stocks and blew them. Got back in the Summer of 2008 when we started hitting 52 week lows. I'd say I'm a smaller to mini-med sized fish that will become much bigger after a settlement for WAMU and pay for a subscription. (LOL)
Hope this helps. :)
I bought back in on Friday. I'll be watching, but I'm too tied up in other plays to keep buying right now. (LOL)
I've done the same. Every fall just pissed me off and allowed me to collect another 390,000 more than I'd planned. (LOL)I was in when we went down and I'll be in til the end. I'll be tempted to "flip" some with a big enough POP, but I'll be more upset if I'm not "fully loaded" when it's over. This could end soon or take years. However it's a "GAME CHANGER" either way. :)
What about half of that? :)
Looks like a game of 'CHICKEN" I see a lot of shares got sold trying to drop the price and they bought it all back at the end of the day. :)
Yes ABK has a GREAT trading range, and like yourself I've held ups and downs. I held my .90 buy in as it fell to .75 and added to .50 and added down to the 52 week low and added as it came back up. I sold when it stalled and then it SHOT up without me. I usually try to by 2 to 5 times more shares than I want, so I can keep some "freebies" but there's ALWAYS another play that draws me in and gets my freebies. (LOL) :)
I've got Parlay, but cannot post there. :(
That's been my philosophy so far.
Yes seeing a higher PPS looks good in the ol' account balance, but if we were to triple. I'd be too tempted to "flip" some and then there would probably be a settlement with me holding less than I wanted. So hovering here til settlement is fine with me. :)
I picked up 5,000 J's at .09 earlier as the M's ran trying to get things going, but it was short lived. I got some M's for a flip later but held as I watched it run for a bit...I love the fact we can usually get J's cheaper than M's...:)
Friday, I picked up even more J's and some M's to "trade" not worried long term, but playing short term parlay with M's as I hold J's for the long term. :)
Maybe it'll turn out like the parlay, but I'm mentally prepared if it doesn't. :P
I'm back in MCLN, and I LOVED your post...
One of my stocks is probably about to list off of the pinks and I think I learned from your past experiences. So THANK YOU...
:)
I had this stock much lower and have traded it many times.
However at these levels I wanted a "small taste" so I'm back in. :)
I'd buy more and I will at some point if we hover here. However I'm liking where we are and were we "could go." I learned to not fall in love with a stock. However PWRM is one I usually want back in after I sell. Luckily I've ALWAYS bought low and sold high. Just a taste now but that's because I'm deep in others. HOWEVER I buy more shares now with a "taste" than I used too. :P
Just picked up some more around .69. :)
Thought we'd go to 1.50-2.50 with my last entry. I got in around .76 and got out above .91 In hindsight it looks like the right thing...This market made me a trader. I wanted to buy and hold, but I learned that lesson QUICK!!!
I'm expecting big things this quarter and I felt the need to enter now...In a way, I hope we stay low PPS so I can get more. :)
If not, at least I'm back in... :P
I did!!! A lillte late, but back none the less. :)
I don't normally "flip" but I did do it with EEE.
I was in when we went from .30 to over 1.00...I sold at .70 and watched for a while.
I love this stock at these prices and had to get back in. I'm so DEEP in others right now, I was HAPPY to add this and some others before the weekend. If we stay here or go lower I'll buy more. Long term I'm not worried and look at this as a BLESSING. I got out of KOG, EXXI, GST, QTM, HILL, after doubles from around these levels and I've regreted it since. Happy to have doubled my money, but learned my lesson when a DEAL pokes it's head out I need to keep some "freebies" to enjoy the ride... I feel we're at one of those moments with EEE. Hopefully history will repeat itself, but my stragety will change for the better. GLTY :)
Thank you...
Thanks to all that went.
I'm taking some vacation around the 11th-22nd of February...Do we have any court dates during that time???
I haven't made plans and I'd think it to be funny if I just showed up...Or scary. :P
My bad, I didn't knbow FISHY was gone!!!
Glad to know they're back. :)
My pleasure.
I wish we didn't have such bad news because I'm betting heavy on the drug through ILNS. "Bap" will be a great for the % of people it will help. I'd say the reason for ILNS being priced so low for so long is the risk involved...:(
I always told people to play with "free" shares, but I didn't take my own advise. (LOL) 10k has been cut in more than half, but at least I have 10k to throw into the market. Most people I know don't "invest/gamble" So I'm lucky reguardless of how my investment in ILNS works out. This will hurt, but as long as I learn and adapt I won't really lose anything. Experience is priceless but sometimes painful. (LOL) :) GLTY
D GURU???
HAMMER TIME???
I'm kinda both. (LOL)
As does homeland security, JPM, shorty...EVERYBODY does, hence I "watch" what I say, but if they could read my thoughts...(LOL)It wouldn't be so good. :)
I don't think we'll ever get that ruling. IMO I think the judge is trying to let all the parties work it out. (settlement) I think they were going to include us(commons) but with the EC I think they're afraid we'll GO FOR THE THROAT!!! (LOL) and why not...I'm thinking the judge will hold off on SJ because they're "trying" to keep this as quiet as possible. As long as it's fair then I won't care. The longer it goes on the more it shakes out those who can't handle it. I'm so glad I found this board, because when I feel weak I log on and remind myself that...I'm not alone.
I didn't double my position, but the longer we stay low with the PPS the more I add. :)I'm up over 30% but I'm not in this for small gains or daily trades...I'm in this for personal reasons.
We just keep getting good news and we hang around .10-.20 (LOL)What motivated people to buy at .40 is still there, and it's actually looking even better. So today's buyers are still getting a GREAT bargain IMO. So let the deep pockets manipulate away...It's only temporary and one day this will be GAME OVER! The question is when and what's the result. Personally I like our chances and would be more upset if I traded myself out before the end.
We'll know more after this weekend I expect. I had another stock close down operations and they too had a percentage of a drug. Each situation is different, but that one turned out quite well. This and putting ANY money in the stock market is gambling. Luckily for me I've got so many gains that a loss won't discourage me. However I wouldn't recommend other investors to take the kinds of risks that I do. However it's those risks that has worked out so well for me in this market. Never invest what you can't lose and be careful of expectations. :)
