If not, I will never invest in stocks again. Thats what every1 says, including many of my family members, but when the market goes up they invest, then when it falls they

Btw, I spotted your 135i today, silver color, Now I know why you never stop talking about your car  , indeed it looks GREAT, especially from the rear. Looks more special than the 335i !

Hey folks! I wish I had some more time to be a regular participant here but right now these financial markets has made my job very busy. I am still buying stocks hand over fist especially these past two months like never before. My clients and my own personal equity exposure has never been this high. Miraculously I haven't received any death threats from any clients at least not yet.  My portfolios have suffered lately but I have never been this confident in my whole life in terms of the "Great Buys" out there. So some have said that things appear to be out of control? Almost a year ago I had posted the following POST 8487 Dated Dec 4th 2008 This is not a typical kind of situation since for the first time there is a risk that a few big derivative contract counterparties may not be able to live up to their commitments.( there are dozens of trillions of dollars of those contracts out there whose value is based on a counterparties ability to deliver) . If major financial instituions whom are counterparties of trillions of dollars of these contracts get financially squeezed then this whole world will be fried. Yup fried is the word. The Gates of Hell has opened because of the lack of transparency involved with rillions of dollars of derivative contracts out there and fears that these contracts cannot be fulfilled. That was my outlook over a year ago. Unfortunately I did not listen to my own opinion and bought quite a few equities prematurely. Oh well now for something more cheerful: I read somewhere that the new Lexus Prius will be a plug-in. Now that is music to my years. Take care and as things become less hectic I will back again with my regular visitations. I really do miss this place |

Replying to: bmlexus (Oct 06, 2008 2:22 pm) Gee, I haven't posted about the 135i in quite some time now... at least a couple of hours. bmlexus, I've been in the stock market a long time, and it's just that I'm at the point where I don't want to take the time any more to see a long recovery process through. I'll probably start increasing the portfolio's percentage to bonds, even though I'm sure there are some seriously good buys out there. Clembo, as far as stocks go, financials are likely a good investment right now, as they are so battered, the strong institutions should bounce back nicely. I think you've made a good move. TM |

Replying to: dewey (Oct 06, 2008 2:33 pm) At least on the few stocks I own that pay dividends, the yields are looking great! There, the piggy bank is half full! Of course it used to be 4/5ths full...  I'm thinking of buying (do not tell the EW!) a few companies in a few weeks. Sell in May and stay away, but I believe late October, historically if one is trying to buy low, is the time to buy? Bill Miller, Will Danoff, Ken Heebner et al, I'm hangin' with ya! |
