Gold and Interactive Brokers. Both at all-time highs. When you own strength, you end up with winners even in bad markets. Not enough for sure but better than a kick in the head.

Kindle First Impressions…Chaching!
From Rachel – ‘It’s awesome…Amazing.’ As I suspected, a kid that reads deserves this. Obviously the price is insane for most. As most have already complained, the buttons are bad – too many actually as well, and the design is just bland. It’s about the WORDS though. Rachel could give a rat’s ass about design …
TIVO…Congrats?
I hate patents. Necessary evil at times I guess. Today TIVO looks vindicated for it’s patents. I am definitely considering the stock on strength above $9 at 5-year highs. It must be ‘in play’ with it’s big court win today? Thoughts…? What could it be worth? Definitely Wallstrip worthy at this point. Don’t we all …
Firing Up My Kindle…
I have been staring at the Amazon box for about a week. Inside sits my daughter’s Kindle. I am not a big reader, nevertheless, it says something about the product and category that I just did not want to rip it open and fire it up. This ain’t no iPod. It’s time though. Tonight I …
Don't get Mad…Get Flat and Liquid
It never ceases to amaze me how people get mad at stocks and the stock market. If you are getting mad, you are just wrong. This is a freaking difficult market and has telegraphed itself as such weeks ago. If you are mad now, just wait. Did you know that porn was free on the …
Wallstrip Tributes the VICE Stocks!
Really a classic production job today. One of new favorite lines as well…’I am liquidating my LIFE’. Actually there were many Wallstrip classic lines in this one. It’s fun seeing Julie get her friends involved, talking stocks and porn. Only took a few weeks :) . When the market sucks like this for trend followers …
Bank Executives…The ONLY Free Lunch Recipients and AMAZON flows BLOOD RED
Is there a better freaking job than a bank executive. When times are good, you lend, wine and dine recklessly. When they are bad, you keep your job and pocket FED money while doing nothing. You wait. You wait some more and than when the spread is disgusting again, only than will you dip your …
Do we Close Higher or Lower after Fed – More respect!
I think much higher because we should be going down. Just not ready yet I guess. I have no bet other than a small financial index short. What Thinks Ye?
I Want my own Bathroom Too!
Brad is smart and funny . I thought I was on to something twittering from bathrooms a while back. It almost cost me a few blackberries so I stopped. I was just one upped by Brad Feld . Rats! “The best ideas often come at inconvenient times. Don’t ever close your mind to them.”. Classic …
Yahoo Bloooows up…I mean Down!
Does anyone really care? If a web stock blows up in the woods and no one is watching…. Actually, I would…but only if we were in a raging momentum market and this news hit the wire . Instead, Yahoo has blown for 2 years and this is more stink on shit, if possible! We all …
