  • Retail Stock Investors: We Won't Get Fooled Again [View article]
    The fact that market is going up might also explain some of those trends.

    For example if I put 100,000 k in a mutual fund, that's an in-flux of 100,000 k. Six months later, worth of my shares become 150,000 and I decide to take profits, therefore we have an out-flux of 150,000. At the end of the day, one person got in, one person got out, but the outflux is bigger than influx because the market kept going higher.

    There should be a Joe Springer ETF. That'd definitely outperform the market by a large margin!

  • Nokia Siemens Network: Another Round Of Restructuring? [View article]
    Headcount shrinks while the revenues stay the same, which I would consider a victory.

  • Some Thoughts On The Recent Surge In National Bank Of Greece [View article]
    Great summary surrounding Greek banks, thank you.

    Today NBG's American share price fell to as little as $1.50 even though the bank's shares still trade for €1.57 in Greece, which is around $2.00.

  • Dump Nokia's Sad Ringtone, Buy BlackBerry [View article]
    A lot of times, the articles I write get declined by editors who say that the article doesn't add much to discussion in a stock that's covered heavily already (which is understandable). Yet, this author almost copies and pastes the same article 3 times within 10 days and gets published every time. Must be nice to be him. Look at his last 3 NOK articles, they are almost identical to each other.

  • Is Volkswagen The Buy Of The Automobile Sector For The Value-Oriented, Dividend Investor? [View article]
    If only VLKAY was one of the American stock exchanges, then more people would take notice. Also, the option players in the US can't really buy or sell options for this company, which diminishes the interest in it. Furthermore, VLKAY does a lot of business in Europe and some investors are worried about the dynamics in the continent.

  • Is Volkswagen The Buy Of The Automobile Sector For The Value-Oriented, Dividend Investor? [View article]
    As someone that's written a couple bullish articles on VW, I agree that this is the cheapest car company in the world. This company is definitely in my A-list.

  • The Case For Long-Short VIX Portfolios [View article]
    As long as the QE to infinity continues, vix will lose. As soon as QE ends, vix will have a spike up but I don't know how long it will stay up.

  • The 'Retire Young' Portfolio: Which Gun Company To Add? [View article]
    If institutions refuse to buy the company, the company can buy itself back piece by piece. Companies don't stay cheap for long.

  • The 'Retire Young' Portfolio: Which Gun Company To Add? [View article]
    This is a hypothetical portfolio and by "we" I mean me and any reader that follows me in this portfolio. Personally I've owned shares of SWHC for a while already. This is my third or fourth article on this company.

    Yesterday (as I was writing this article) all stores said "out of stock"

    Wal-Mart must have received new copies.

    If Wal-Mart doesn't carry Lumia 521, why in the world is it advertising the phone on its website?

  • Forget The Jobless Recovery, Get Ready For The Full-Employed Recession [View article]
    Most jobs lost during the recession were decently paying full-time jobs; whereas, most of the jobs economy has gained in the last couple years were part-time jobs that pay minimum wage or so. Even if unemployment rate falls below %7, this doesn't mean much until the good quality jobs are back. Then again, the second oil boom in the US is helping job growth greatly.
