Zzzzzzzzzzzz ...

I overslept. Je me suis réveillé trop tard.

I'll post later.

... later ...

Oh well, it's Wednesday and as usual, not much is happening.

Actions

I will try to buy some VVUS today as its price has pulled back and its equity offering is done. I'll pick up a start position of about 1/3 of what I want over time, as long as its price stays in the area of 10+. This company has a very promising weight loss drug with good safety prospects, too.

  9. yes, GS guts its befers when it suits them.

    Anyone using GS as a money manger must be a fool.

    All their trading profits come at the expense of customers.

  22. Bman since you have already acknowledged you are an anachronism yourself ??


    what period would you rather live in if you had 1 choice

    a - an officer in general washington's colonial army fighting King george's occupying army


    b- an officer in the union army fighting the confederates during the civil war


    c- or a gunslinging cowboy out west exploring and fightin injuns




    personally i'd go with c
