Thu, 22 Oct 2009 23:32:01 GMT

MARKET COMMENT October 22, 2009 DRIVE-THRU SOUP KITCHEN 2009 So, what the hell was yesterday about anyway? It lends credence to the idea of heavy liquidations in Galleon’s hedge funds since there don’t appear any other credible ideas—but, I’m open to suggestions. The rally today was led by earnings from McDonalds, Travelers and 3M. The 2:15 PM Buy Program Express arrived on time to squeeze shorts from yesterday’s closing debacle.[More...]

Tickers For The Latest Portfolio Reshaping

Fri, 04 Sep 2009 15:45:21 GMT

Fortunately my portfolio management methods don’t revolve around frequent trading. One of my kids came up to me recently and said, “What did you do today, Dad?” I said, “I made one trade, and I did a bunch of research.” He then asked, “How often do you trade?” I answered, “That was my first trade in a week, and I haven’t traded much in the last two months, but that’s not normal. There is no normal for me. When the market is really volatile, I trade a lot more, selling when stocks are rising, and buying when they are selling off. When the market is relatively placid, I don’t do much.” He looked at me, kind of smiled, and moved on. Information overload from Dad. Most people and investment managers trade too often. They sell their winners too rapidly, and panic too soon on their losers. Now, I’m not advocating “buy and forget,” or Buffett’s statement, “Our favorite holding period is forever.”[More...]

Dow Nears Mile Marker: El Pasoans Debate Whether Rise Would Mark Return to Bull Market

Mon, 05 Oct 2009 02:00:00 GMT

Oct. 4--EL PASO -- The Dow Jones industrial average is flirting with the 10,000-point level -- territory not seen in a year as the stock market made a steady dive after the nation's financial meltdown last October.
The Dow sank to a 12-year low of 6,547 on March 9.
But many El Paso investors and investment advisers remain leery that the market has made a full reversal from its huge collapse.
