Must be AMD again

I sold all my shares. I'm only holding some AMDA and unfortunately MCP... No point in letting MCP go after that last episode... Might as well hold it and hope for the best.

Yup. This AMD has been one of the most stupid value trap crap so far.

Too bad I dont have extra $$$ in acct....I like paypal

MrPrena · 07-07-2015, 02:38 PM

So far, this has been one of my worst trade ever.
My "THE worst drop" stock which was meant to be a trade came out to be the BEST investment ever by holding the bag. YEs, it beat the mightly Apple between late2008-early2013 while we held it.

the markets can go down longer than you can stay liquid. Common problem, don't feel bad. Buy buy buy, but pick the when, what, and where.

thanks again.
After you told me, I just went to yahoo finance. It is not looking pretty at all.

This reminds me of 2008 (except the oil being opposite, and Greece).

1. Retail plunged first
2. CHinese market down the drain

Of course, this time is it not stupid derivatives and subprime MBS.
People said market is not overpriced. Well, it seems like companies are still speculating that they can retain the earnings like consumers are on a Overdrive. We shall see if top/bottom will still sustain the high rev/profit momentum to maintain the EPS. Acceleration is most likely gone.

Don't know how you do it Prena. This fucking game has been giving me heart attacks since 2007. I could never make a solid buck investing.

Beside 1 stock I am holding biggest bag of elephant sh1t, I got out. Currently waiting for oil to fall further, and go in.

I just can't invest in stock at this time. Yes, macro guys stated that we now have much higher money supply relative to 2000-2001, 2006-2008, and have more room.
Some people also said there are good quantity of people still waiting on a sideline to get in.

I am not going to take a risk like 2008. rake hike or sign of that might be the day we wake up angry bear from hibernation.
Luckly my biggest sh1tbag from 2008 came out to be The best investment ever later (better run than AAPL late2008-2012), but I had to eat ramen, salad, and mcdonald cheeseburgers for years.

I am just going to position trade oil when it dips more , then start buying PUT when there is a clear momentum of downward spiral.

Of course, it is easier to be said than done.

This week must set a new record high for suicide rates in China as locals commit suicide due to stocks tanking like there is no bottom dropping to a point where trading is just halted. -1500 Points on Hong Kong Exchange today. Been a long while since we saw -1500 loss in one session in Hong Kong. I would not walk by any high rises in Hong Kong this week. Will not be bird crap falling down this week.

stylinexpat · 07-08-2015, 04:47 AM

When the companies wanted to halt trading in China the government pretty much said "NO!" So this tells you which invisible hand has a hand in this recent collapse and sell off..

Hurricane comin boys. Grab a hold of something.

NickyC · 07-08-2015, 01:15 PM

What a "recovery", Microsoft laid off 7,700 today too.

No doubt the rigged script will see the market rise to unchanged by the close. Don't panic, BTFD!

ska///235i · 07-08-2015, 01:24 PM

Hang on boyz

NickyC · 07-09-2015, 11:27 AM

Well the market is up today, so there won't be any "technical glitches" of course.

Good to see China fixed their 1929 moment by banning "malicious" short selling, banning major executives and shareholders of companies from selling for six months, and freezing trading for more than half of the listed companies.

Good work China, all is fixed!! I told you all to BTFD yesterday, stock have never been valued better than they are right now.

Now get out there and do your patriotic duty to The Fe...I mean Uncle Sam. BUY BUY BUY!!!

The picture was like me all week.....

stylinexpay? What made you move to HK? Where did you move to there from?

Holding stocks is too stressful. When I own stocks, I am constantly looking at my phone to see how they are doing. My favorite days are the days where I leave my computer owning no shares in my brokerage accounts up enough money to cover McDonalds for the next couple of days.

Weird that with my retirement accounts, I dont really care to ever check. Maybe because that money is mentally categorized to be withdrawn in 30 years during retirement while my brokerage account is money to trade stocks to make income.

Bought some stock today to hold overnight though. I guess I dont have enough stress in my life. Stock will probably gap down tomorrow premarket haha
