LOL! I sold off the new stock that I had bought and then watched nose dive, then I used that money to buy more Wal Mart stock only to watch it go down! ;D Sitting at $10,799.45 showing a loss of $121.95.
Come on everybody, we need to go to Wal Mart and do some shopping. ;D

I'm currently not holding any stocks maintaning my $10,383 and watching the stock patters... from what it looks, in most of these, is that if you invest earliest in the morning, you are most likely to get a gain closer to the afternoon. Speculation... believe it or not (since it is down so low, from 20 to 9 I believe) the American Dairy Co. is a good one to look in to... ;D

Well ive got 10,317 now so glad to hear you've gained nothing  ;D

Well im not so sure because last week DOW went down like 300-400 in the last hour then the next day went up like 200-300 in the last hour. Very unpredictable at this time but ive read on yahoo the economy is going to gett even worse so im prepared to lose money ::)..

Now ill be having to wait till Walmart goes up from the value I paid for it since it went down I want get rid of it before anything else unpredictable happens ;D

No they are not! Lost another $350 dollars today.;D Looks like I might have to dump Wally mart soon.
Risky buisness messing with those banks right now. Oil might be a good investment soon with the holiday driving time coming up soon.

Yeah serouisly comeon Shane  ;D

How'd you do that good wii?
Must be on the ball with your stocks.
I dont sell my that much just keep the same stock then sell when ive got money. Although I made the wrong choice I shouldove sold FSLR when it had gained me over $200 not its lost me $100 so thats a change.

Ive just lost $300 today. You guys obviously know a better way to do it since I only have 10,031  ::)

I just threw all my eggs into one basket and hope for the best. In real life this would be the worst way to do it. You are doing it the right way by having a more diverse portfolio, if something tanks really hard, you've got your other holdings to keep you afloat, if mine tanks, I'm out of luck all at once. ;)
