solars have been hot primarily due to FSLR,the energy bill and the US indexes . there seems to be no correlation with the price of crude oil.

FSLR has a huge PE of 142 but they are the most cost efficient of all the solars and have been beating wallstreet's estimates quarter after quarter.

i wished i bought GOOG on Apr 17. what a fantastic quarter...

yep i agree with you all no idea why these banks being injected by capital by diluting their shares outstanding or reporting bigger losses are increasing in stock price.

I have been feeling down despite I know I did the right thing by existing @ 24.1 yesterday. It's my greed getting to me
Citi going up because analysts lowered Citi's estimate couple months ago. Their estimate was way too low. If you look at the 'big picture', the whole bank sector is really bad. Banks are scrambling to raise billions of dollars to cover their bad debts, and lots of jobs are being cut.

When the Fed announce the new data for initial jobless claims in the coming weeks. I won't be surprised that we will see a huge spike in those numbers.

US economy still bad and it's not getting any better yet. Sell into the rally and buyback when the market drops.

.
the irony is, Citi posted worse than expected.

I am fully aware of the losses they are going to face, that's why I have a protective put in place to limit my loss.

I think it will go flat or even on the downside due to one-time charge on IPO.
Pay attention to American Express earning Thursday.

AAPL just reported its earning today

the after hour trading is one of the most volatile one I have seen in some time

+10 -> 5 ->0 ->-7 ->0.5 -> -0.88 right now.

I have always hated AAPL's conservative outlooks.

You got roughly 22% return, that's actually quite good

Now spend them all and be cool

I still got money with them. Holding for a year, taking some out and leaving a bunch more long term. I hope the earnings are good *crosses fingers*

V should have a pretty good quarter, but take into account that IPO costs money

and as always, know when to pull out

Visa is a good play for long term investment. But I like MasterCard (MA) better. MasterCard is more exposed to international countries. But Visa is more ifocus to US than international.

Visa and Ma did so well today, can't believe V broke 80 after being down 71 in aftermarket trading. I should of bought margin the whole way up

Im taking a look at 2 stocks right now, somebody give me an opinion or 2.

One is Blue Note Mining, its at .29 a share right now, and their hiring and looking for workers, meaning they wil be mining soon. So it looks ok.

The second is GIL, it basically took a shit, up until last week it was at 38.00, now its at 25.00, its 52 week low was 30.00, and about 9 million shares were sold in the past day.

Thoughts on rate cut today? Less than 2 hours to go : )

Last 3 cut's = boost in most sectors... even BSC and major banks

I hope they cut deeper today, since most people are now saying the recession is in full swing and it will be bad

I just setup positions with gold mining companies yesterday. Gold has been dropping for sometime and most of the major players took quite a beating. I believe it is a good time to establish a positioni

I agree, gold in the high 800's doesn't make sense w/ inflation and the devaluation of the dollar. KGC and GG are down almost 15% from earlier this month... despite record revenue? Funny.

Since you're into CFA this pretty young guy does alot of analysis on gold prices / us.
