Yup. I'd add some AAPLs here. :D

WI wide body 01-15-2008 05:16 PM

Okay, I'll take five:

SNX was around $19 at the first of Jan. and made a nice jump but it took a beating today.

BWLD has taken a small dip so far but has great potential. I'll sell if it hits a 40 or 50 percent increase.

APA made me look good since I bought it about a year and a half ago. But it might make my sell list if it looks like the scummy Royal Family of Saudi Arabia and Bush have a deal to lower prices.

The other two that are my chief holdings are PFE and GE. PFE has basically done nothing but it does pay a boring but nice div. while waiting for it to realize it's 10/1 PE and it should take off once it's sales resume. GE is another boring stock that I kept because of it's fundamentals. But it has proved to me that fundamentals don't always mean much!

Okay, I`ll play.

ALTI is pretty low right now, but will go up again. Time to buy.
ZNN.V will be huge if and when EESTOR delivers their prototypes to them. It took 27% in a day when Lockheed Martin announced an agreement with EESTOR.
AAPL looks very good this year with the new powerbook air.

For a stock fund, I put money into this 6 or 8 months ago, and it's done well (my only mutual fund). I think it is going to do very well in 08.

Is there a vehicle to short the Pelican OT fund?

No kidding! I'm glad I didn't actually take those positions. Would've been ugly (well, maybe not that ugly with the appropriate stops, but still a loss!)

My BEAS positions jumped 20% the other day. Hehehe!!!

The only thing I've had jump 20% this year is my blood pressure :)

TyFenn 01-22-2008 02:30 PM

is it too late to change my pick to cash?


just kidding.

What a ride today was...

Porsche-O-Phile 01-22-2008 02:45 PM

Today was fine until I (stupidly) did 155 calls on AAPL hoping to ride their earnings report into the stratosphere. Christ, their sales were up 58% and they still get raked for a $20 a share loss in after hours. Ugh.

That hurts.

Update 01/22/2008 closing prices:

http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1201045755.jpg

New participants are welcome, but I think there should be a cut-off for entry into the PPOT Port of January 31. That sound fair?

Jeff,

You should have shorted the index instead.

Looks like I'm in a strong second place right now with AUY!

Counting your chips a bit early, eh? :D

Nice pick, and WCG is slapping some cratch too.

Kurt
