but not having to pay taxes for capital gains (if you are lucky enough) is better than having to pay any taxes. =)

anyone know anything about CXAC. It is traded in the US markets. I am hearing some big movement potential due to new commericals that will be broadcast in the states. It is currently sitting at $0.0008 and I think it can hit .003 in the near future.

Anyone getting skiddish about the tech sector? It looks like things are poised to take a correction. I'm thinking of shorting Dell, AMD, or IBM. Also, anyone see a double top forming with AMD?
I'll probably short 2 of the 3. Looks like there is room for a 10-30% return over 2-4 weeks. Anyone have a different viewpoint?
The only difference is Apple, but I'm thinking the market makers are just letting the market climb a little higher before they hammer the price down. Looking for high volume with low spread over a few days.

There are still some of the other tech giants haven't reported yet like MSFT HPQ AMZN. I wouldn't get too crazy about shorting.
Unless the market breaks previous lows on the daily time frame which there is a lot support below, nothing suggest to me the dip won't be bought this time.

So the news on holes 2, 3, 4 and 5 have been delayed on CAN, however I wouldn't be surprised to see it out tomorrow  In the past week I think we've seen some ppl get tired of waiting and leave, however I expect to see good results showing more gold. Question is how much profit takers we get. Either way, I'm in the money from in at .10, .145 and .325.
Long run I can see CAN following the same path as VEN.

A lot of bears got their head handed to them already but some of them still holding on praying the market takes a dive all the sudden. You don't want to be one of them.

You don't want to be one of them. | I don't jump in with my eyes closed and hope for the best. I still maintain to the fact that the tech stocks that I quoted look ready to fall. Today is merely a temporary set back.
To answer your curiosity, I didn't actually get in. My indicators weren't fully confirmed. I also wouldn't have gone all as I like pyramid. The more the price acts my way, the more I go in.
If I'm wrong, then I'm wrong. I can't be right 100% of the time.

''a total of 40 million units at five cents per unit. Each unit consists of one common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant. One full warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one common share at seven cents per share in the first year and 10 cents per share in the second year.''
So on Oct 27th, you have millions of cheap stock (at 5cents; Current share price is .42cents) flooding the market.

Today would've been a nice day to start shorting my stocks. Too bad I was asleep. 
Mark my words! Down I say! DOWN DOWN DOWN!

Off the top of my head,
Dec/MTB [Gold mainly]
News will be out on Monday on a couple of holes. No doubt that many people will be looking to see if continuity of the mineralization is there, as the past hole results have been great.
If it's good news on Monday, look for all the area plays to follow in suit, there's the Aux-v, Nka-v, etc.

Definitely ouch, not to mention gold fell and the markets in general were down added further pressure on the stock. Anyways, still about 15 more holes to be released in the upcoming weeks.
That's the penny stock market, huge volatility.

They all have huge risks
CIT is a huge gamble, they're still deciding if they want to go into pre-packaged bankruptcy or restructure + debt swap. The deadline is due November 5. If there is good news, then up up and away! If not, then kiss your stock good-bye
