Most of my stocks are long-term dividend paying stocks. But my POT holdings is down $3000 already. I was long POT, but news seems to keep going from bad to worse? Just not long ago, most analysts were upgrading their price targets too...I'm hoping it eventually recovers

Farmers in holding pattern on fertilizer prices - The Globe and Mail

damnn... female arousal drug?
the best way to cure that is to give a drug to the husband to make him look sexier

or to a lot of women...LV bag.

Sucks for those guys...that's why i never really got into Pharma stocks. big reward big risk. especially when i don't understand them either.

truer words have never been spoken (re: LV bag)

I was long on BPAX , -$3500 ouch

Down $400 on POT as well. We could be waiting a long time.

Wow BPAX down 76% at the moment. ack

Merger arbitrage for the day - CVE:CSC.

I put in a limit order at .125 for a 2:1 risk return. Figure the floor is the 52 week low. Target price .20. Will know results by dec 31st (when santa fe gold has to announce financing).

In this environment, if you're going long, write covered calls to take out the sting.

RIMM guidance tanking it;Q4 EPS of 80-95c, vs. cons. $1.18, sales $4.6-$4.9B, vs. $5.12B

LOL Zynga $ZNGA said to price 100 million shares at $10/share...gonna be worth more than RIMM

well....Facebook is valued as $100 billion so i guess riding on the tail of them will make you worth a tenth?

At least temporarily. I'd rather bet on RIMM than ZNGA though I'd say both will go to zero given long enough timelines.

facebook is not worth a hundred fucking billion dollars.

just like none of these tech companies going public are worth whatever people think they're worth.

no fuckin way. they're all way over valued.

might as well say it's worth a trillion :lawl:

IPL.un and PPL both pipelines holding up very well in this environment. If you guys are looking for some defensive names with some solid yield.

LOL down to $9.50 now. Some analyst gave it a $13 price target calling it the cure of boredom.

RIM = hory shiet

anyone holding CLL in their portfolio?

62,500 shares

The big joke around the office the last couple weeks was my theory on a "zero diversity" portfolio... then CLL jumped hahaha. (My "zero diversity portfolio" is being purely invested in companys whos core assets is oil sands related.)

Lots of good laughs were had... mostly me laughing at everyone that didnt buy :( lol

If CLL is bought out, the instant the news release comes and the price jumps up, I will sell and dump half that money into PXX.. thats the plan for now anyway.

You're with a firm/prop ?

Dear God no.

The office I work in is full of novice investors, and we typically have too much time on our hands during trading hours... so much of the conversation falls to investing.

I am just glorified rig pig...

anyone follow TKO (Taseko Mines)?

heh not a bad strategy. Kicking myself pretty hard these days that I didn't buy in when it was around 0.35. Watched it tick all the way down from 1.10 and didn't know where it would hold.

Also have 3200 shares of CLL. No where near the position jason has!

Buying @ 0.35 would have been very nice!

felt like dropping another 5k on 500 shares of BAC @ 5.01 .. felt like it was a good bet, long or short term.. going to go short on this one though

Looking :fullofwin:

I would wait if I were you. Some funds would have to sell BAC if they end up falling under $5. Buy BAC now if you think they've bottomed.
