Too kind, dala

You're truly one of the finest posters ever to grace this message board.


Been an unbelievable September so far

Could see some profit-taking on Monday, tho … and a correction sometime next month … but we're still hoping to see that broad market index sitting around 1,200 or so by year's end…

Insider selling last week was 1400 companies to 1 buying. Nothing to see here.

An investor who bought 759 bullish AirTran Holdings Inc. options last week captured a 14-fold gain today after Southwest Airlines Co. agreed to buy the company. ... Excluding commissions, buying the contracts at 15 cents each on Sept. 21 would have cost about $11,385, compared with about $163,000 to sell them at the open of U.S. exchanges today, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

…the TrimTabs numbers show, instead, that over the past decade it was actually quite easy to time the market. All you had to do was buy when the public was selling, and sell when the public was buying. … Human beings are hard-wired to run with the herd. … And that's how they act on the stock market as well. But when it comes to investing, it's a bad idea. Your feelings are a bad guide. And there is no safety in numbers.
...

All you had to do was look at the latest numbers from the Investment Company Institute, showing whether the public was putting money into their stock-market funds or taking it out. And then do the opposite.





Take a few minutes and read this WSJ article posted on yahoo.com today, randy

You'll learn something...
