    Too bad you didn't get any TIBX before, we are up to 22 now! Our last ESPP plan ended today, our purchase price is 11.87. Think I'll sell tomorrow! :wink1:
    Yea, it would have been nice to have that when it was at $12!

      Most people I talk to have nothing but good things to say about you, but you sure come across as a condescending prick. Do you have an inferiority complex you've attempted to overcome through overachievement? Or were you fondled as a child?

      You and slow99 should date. You both have passive aggressiveness down pat.

          This thread is fantastic. Al, real ballers use $100 bills instead of TP.

            A little birdie told me to buy CLDA a couple weeks ago...I just wish I would have bought more! But this same birdie told me to buy up some TIVO and Intel which I did and they havent done shit. Oh well...I have made WAY more using his advice than not this past year.
            Al, how are your stocks doing?

            To the OP...stay away from Scottrade if you are gonna stick with penny stocks.

              Oh, and CLDA is gonna continue going up. Buy 100shares and get out when it gets up 10 more points. I am gonna stay in for a bit to see where it goes.

                Lots of doctors move over to buy and sell-side gigs to cover the pharm/biotech/device names. You couldn't make posts like this though.

                  Huh? That considered insider trading?

                      Not necessarily...but professional asset managers can't make posts like that. I never post specific stock recommendations on here for a reason.

                          Oh...okay. But I am not a professional asset manager. Just trade as a hobby and have learned a lot in a short amount of time and have some really sharp friends in the business.

                            Well of course, which is why I posted, "...you couldn't make posts like this though."

                              Unless you have some solid knowledge about a specific stock or industry you're planning on buying into, don't waste your time. of those stock symbols you posted in the OP, do you have some reason for thinking they're a potentially good buy, other than they're cheap?

                              When I was working in Dallas, a few of us all put in $500 into Scottrade accounts just to see who would come out best. The guy that lost his money first just pulled up a "market movers" chart and bout random cheap stocks off of that. LMAO!

                              I would love to here some real stories on true success from a random person jumping in.

                              Oh, and like Dave said... no Scottrade and penny stocks! LOL I guess he is one of the ones that didn't read the fine print too. Those fees will get ya.

                              <---Never bought a stock under $1 (but never needed to either).

                              And honestly, I'm almost completely out of the stock market, as good of a time to jump in right now as it is. It is just completely out of my thought process now. I made some good moves with F and AIG, but I didn't have patient money and sold at a good profit, yet could have made more. I've had a few hits and misses, but in order to do what I'd really like to do, I'd need a lot of money in there- something I really don't want to commit to right now. I think I need more faith in the dollar's future in order for me to sacrifice dollars in order to make more dollars.
