Yeah, I read that too. What mystifies me is the constantly tanking
stock price! What is Wall Street afraid of? What do they know they
don't want the rest of us to know?
Here's the other freaky thing that looks so suspicious:
APPLE INC
(NasdaqGS: AAPL)
After Hours: 103.61 Up 12.12 (13.25%) 7:59PM EThelp
Last Trade: 91.49
Trade Time: 4:00PM ET
Change: Down 6.95 (7.06%)
Prev Close: 98.44
Open: 96.97
Apple tanked over 7% today, down almost $7. Then, always in the after
hours shadowy world of the superrich, it suddenly jumps up 13.25% to
$103 for no apparent reason!
I've been watching this going on for months. Once night, like tonight,
it jumps up after tanking.....Then, on another night, it does just the
opposite...has a fair day then some big gun makes it crash all over
again....as if this is all planned.
Wed Oct 15 - closes down 97.95 opens up Thurs at 99.92
Thursday - closes up at 102 opens Friday at low 99
Friday - closes at 97, opens above 99
But, no matter what, the stock price is CRAP on one of the few companies
now making a helluva profit..rising 26%.
Since September 3rd, volume keeps climbing and climbing and the price
has crashed from $166 down to $91/share. The volume is from DUMPING,
not eager investors soaking it up. They're begging buyers to take it.
This can only mean Christmas 2008 is going to be simply TERRIBLE....or
worse....and way beyond.....
Apple is a very good barometer with this profit rise to see how bad the
economy really is. Gold's down to $774, again. It dropped from $810
Monday....Our money is DEflating! Gas prices show it, too.

Apple stock is doing better than many. Be glad you dont hold Wachovia
stock. At current and projected profit totals, Apple stock is very
underpriced currently.

Re: Apple's profit up 26 percent on iPhone boom
Good News, Good News, and Bad News Warhammer OnlineI mentioned the other
day that my video card died, and I needed to pick up a new one. Well it
looks like I ordered it just in time, because the beta over at
Warhammer Online Age of Reckoning just added a bunch of new players,
myself included. If you haven’t tried to signup for a beta
account yet I’ll link the sign up page later on in the
post.Anyways so the first piece of good news for me is my new video
card. I picked up an nVidia eVGA 8800 GT from NewEgg.com for about $250
including the shipping to Hawaii. Really easy installation for the
hardware, and drivers.So once I got my new card up, and running I had
to make sure my World of Warcraft game could be played.Just as I
suspected it booted up, and I could play at my regular resolutions
again proving that my video card was the cause of my inability to play
WoW. I can finally hit the auction houses again to start earning wow
gold now. My gold supply is still at 13,000 since I only sold about 1k
gold in January despite having the lowest price on my server on
Sparter.Anyway the next bit of news is both good, and bad news. I have
been accepted as one of the newer beta testers this timer around. So
this news put together with the fact that I’m playing the beta on
a new video card makes Mitch a happy gamer. Now for the bad
news…The EA Mythic, the makers of Warhammer Online Age of
Reckoning. Have made all beta testers sign a strict NDA(Non-Disclosure
Agreement). So as much as I would like to tell you the ins and outs of
this upcoming MMORPG I can’t. My hands are tied on the subject
along with my tongue. Soo you’ll just have to hope that once you
do sign up for the Warhammer Online Beta, that you’ll be part of
the next group that gets invited in for the next phase. Its really a
bummer for me since I wanted to arrogantly tease people who
aren’t in share about the Warhammer Online Beta.Anyways happy
gaming to everyone, with my computer back up and running I can finally
write some posts
again.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[image:

I'm a day trader and made a right tidy sum from Wachovia in the last 3
weeks when it crashed.
I started with no WB stock. It WAS my bank, until that fateful Monday,
Sept 20. They stopped trading to prevent it from going to zero. By
11:30, I had my cash in hand but left the account open in case I
couldn't get my SS direct deposit stopped in time. Opened a new account
at a local state bank that's in fine shape. They only loan money to
people who qualify, a whole new concept in banking.
At 2:30, they reopened the stock at $1.64 and it started to rise. I
couldn't stand it and dumped my trading account into WB at $1.84 and
held my breath. Tueday, the stock bounced over 70% putting a nice smile
on my face. Greedy bastard that I am I hung on, not sleeping again Tue
night. It went up nearly 20% more on Wed, 13% on Thursday.
Thursday night is when Wells Fargo said they wanted to buy the whole
company for $7/share. The stock opened near $7 Friday morning and
stayed there with this firm offer until Citigroup, who had tried to
steal WB for $1/share threatened to drag everyone into court. Upon
hearing that word, I dumped it at $6.94, a $27,717 pre-tax profit.
The next week it tanked with all the fighting going on and profit takers
like me gloating to friends who told me I was crazy, including the VP of
the new bank who had a chance and blew it. Then, on Oct 8th it crashed
again to $3.60 and I was watching closely. I bought back in and held on
as Citigroup decided not to fight the takeover, making the stock jump
back to over 6.30 when it evened out at the level point of the stock
swap deal from Wells Fargo, whos stock had tanked. Whatever level the
stock was worth is now tied to Wells Fargo's price X .1991 = WB's
tethered price. Wells Fargo recovered a little, but not worth losing
more sleepless nights so I dumped it for a final time making another 9K.
I felt sorry for anyone who hung on long, which I never do, in some
"brand loyalty" mode which always leads them into long term ruin these
days....
There was great money to be made in Wachovia, as in any other crashing
company, if you take the time to play it close with an internet-
connected trading account like Ameritrade or Scottrade or the like.
Trading costs $7-10 per trade if you do everything yourself with your
mouse clicker....(c; I once owned thousands of shares of Worldcom I
bought for 6c/share off the pink sheets and sold for 22c/share
prematurely as it didn't crash again until it was over 30c/share. Every
time a stock crashes hard, I always see this one little bounce caused by
just nothing but greedy bastards buying it so cheap they can't believe
it. Then, at some point a little later, reality sets in that, yes, the
CEO did make off with the money and is going to get away with it, when
it finally dies for good. I love to play with that little bounce.
There's a great way to watch successful day traders make a lot of money
you can watch or listen to for free at:
http://www.daytradingradio.com/
This guy never leaves his house and has turned his daytrading addiction
into a very nice business. He has a radio stream on Shoutcast every
trading day he's not on vacation or on-the-road. You can click on it on
the webpage. I listen to him, even on the road on Alltel EVDO, with my
Nokia N800 tablet a lot. If you simply follow him, you WILL make a nice
return on your money. He's very successful, even in this market. If
you subscribe and take his nighttime courses, you'll find all kinds of
very useful ways to turn someone else's misery into whatever toys you've
been wanting.
The only thing that pisses me off is I didn't just stop working my ass
off years ago and sit daytrading. I'd be far better off, except for the
trips to the sanitorium and intensive care after the heart attacks....
(c;
Daytrading is WAY more fun than anything in Atlantic City or Vegas.
With daytrading you can ACTUALLY WIN!

Good points well expressed. There must not be as many supporting fanbois
as I suspected in this environment.
