Learn about a company, fast - corporate presentations
Tue, Mar 09, 2010, 4:18:47 PM (13 views) posted by: barry

If you really want to understand a company, you need to read through the quarterly reports and listen to the quarterly conference calls. This can be very time consuming. So before you make this investment of your time and energy, I find the presentations that executives make at investment conferences to be very informative. You can go through the powerpoint presentation in around 10 minutes. It is a good way to get a quick overview of the company. Then, if you like what you see, you can go ... (more)

Sell Short
Thu, Mar 04, 2010, 1:36:41 PM (39 views) posted by: Bull28

First off, to be perfectly honest I have on a slight idea of what sell short means but anyways, I had a stock, and I sold short 2/3's of my shares. I have since sold all shares of this stock but the sell short stocks, still show in my portfolio, and im wondering if there is a way to get the sell short out of my portfolio?

In over my head!!!!!
Thu, Mar 04, 2010, 4:08:32 AM (21 views) posted by: Gabriel621

ACON,

I am trying to learn to invest and figured practicing would be a great tool for me. My problem is when it comes to numbers, and money lingo (finance, dividend, APY) it is way over my head and I get so lost. I am looking for someone(s) who would be able to break this down for my barney style. Just so I can learn the basics. I am looking at other places online, talking to people, and reading books, but like I said it is way over my head.

Thank you for your time and your pat ... (more)

Excel Program and GE Stock Statistics
Tue, Jan 12, 2010, 7:10:19 PM (235 views) posted by: JMD

I wrote a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet program which calculates some GE stock price statistics. The program calculates and displays data pertaining to the rate of return of simulated random stock purchases of GE stock as a function of the length of time the stock is held. The program uses data for GE stock prices for the period from 1962 to 2007 obtained from Yahoo! Finance. The Microsoft Office Excel spreadsheet program and data can be downloaded from page 3 of my personal web site at http:// ... (more)

New sector group created - Coal
Tue, Jan 12, 2010, 2:50:38 PM (287 views) posted by: barry

It's dirty. It causes global warming. It causes disease. But we are running out of it. China and India don't have enough of it, and they are importing more and more of it. Russia's supply is declining. The stock prices of its producers are going up. Here is it - Coal.

Oh, and other more thing - clean coal is a total fantasy.

I just released a new site for investors interested Gold & Silver. Here is the site: GoldForTheFuture.com

With all the money printing that the government is doing, I have done alot of research lately into the precious metals and mining sector. Gold and silver have been making some big gains recently. Many "goldbugs" think the price of both is going a lot higher.

Check out the site, and please provide comments and feedback. Thanks.

U.S., the world, and the dollar
Sun, Nov 01, 2009, 4:35:30 AM (197 views) posted by: barry

Here is an interesting link on I. Wallerstein, discussing the dollar, and the U.S. role in the world.

Many people are discussing the downfall of the U.S. and the dollar. The US gov't has printed an enormous amount of money. They have devalued the dollar. That means that our salaries and savings have reduced purchasing power. We, as a nation, have taken on an enormous amount of debt. We can never pay off this deb ... (more)

new short selling group - Rogue Traders

This group will be focused solely on short selling. I'm looking for those who want to actively discuss their short selling strategies/ ideas. We will be focusing on individual stocks and short selling etfs like the skf. I am also kicking around the idea of creating a utility that will enhance the trading here at TTT. One such enhancement would be the shorting of other users portfolios. Tracking error should be minimal as most users here only complete a couple trades a day. Another ... (more)

Advice for someone new?
Thu, Oct 15, 2009, 2:11:22 PM (604 views) posted by: dx_intruder

Hi,

Looks like people ask this a lot, sorry if this is annoying, but I'm new and would like to learn the very basics. I'd like to have a go at day trading/penny stocks? I would like to learn how to spot patterns for example. Do you record the +/- on a certain stock every 6 hours for example? I made a guess and bought some just to test it out but I think it said it only updates once a day or something, so is practicing day trading even possible?

Any advice or link to the very basics ... (more)

Outrageous return percentages?!?
Sun, Sep 27, 2009, 9:55:32 AM (352 views) posted by: glwstxboi

upon seeing nevada1955's crazy return of over 16000% i am absolutely stumped as to how this happened!

so i did a little research on UPBS.OB.

according to nevada1955's portfolio, he/she had an account valued at like $10 as of aug 31 '09.

i looked up the price of UPBS.OB's stock at that time and every record i could find says it was worth about
$.02, but after crunching the numbers i found that the 86000 shares (approx.) would have had to be valued at

Looking for books on microfinance/development loans
Wed, Sep 23, 2009, 11:04:56 AM (172 views) posted by: mikejones11234

I'm looking at getting more into microcredit/microfinance operations, and I'm wondering if anyone knows any good books on the subject. If you're not familiar with the concept, the extremely basic version is loaning money/resources to entrepreneurs in developing areas so they can start/invest in businesses and therefore develop their areas. If you're interested, the wikpedia article has more information. Thanks!

.L stocks???
Sat, Sep 19, 2009, 12:50:28 PM (241 views) posted by: RecognizeMyEveryChime

I'm obviously new to t10t so I'm a little confused on a few things. I can teach myself everything else but what I really need to know is why can't I get shares ending in .L? When I tried to get a few shares from GlaxoSmithKline and Astrazenaca, it wouldn't let me because they said that they no longer supported stocks ending in .L..

At first I thought it had something to do with what the companies were based off of..but I was able to buy shares from Sinovac..so I was pretty confused.
