  • Software Glitch Pushes Knight Capital Towards Bankruptcy [View article]
    Nicely written article, I appreciate your viewpoint.

    I do however disagree. This is a risky one but what isn’t, KCG is an excellent buying opportunity Wall Street will once again take care of their own. They have already borrowed money for today and they are regaining their customers.

    The $440-mil due Monday should be worked out this weekend if it has not already been done.
    It will take them awhile to rebound to 10-11.00 but I see 6-9.00 in the very near future.

    At least I hope so; I placed a sizable bet on them today! Guess I will find out Monday.

    Have a great weekend....

  • A Valuation Model For Arena's Belviq [View article]
    Most,

    How about explaining exactly what day traders have to do with it!

    I do not think you have the slightest clue of what a trader does, and you probably have no interest in this stock at all other than making a fool out of yourself! “Read the article” and you might know what he is writing about, I have several thousand shares of ARNA & VVUS.

    What do you have other than ignorance?

  • Shares of Green Mountain Coffee Roasters (GMCR) soar to a 25.4% gain after the company sets rather cautious guidance for FY12 through FY14. While some traders see a short-lived rally due to a short squeeze, a strong buyback plan and more reasonable valuation levels are bringing in buyers after the firm's FQ3 report brought them off of a DEFCON 1 state of mind. [View news story]
    You call it “rather cautious guidance”

    I call it a “new and improved” business plan!

    Personally, I see it as a reasonable quarter. They are realistically forecasting their future and not blowing it out of proportion.

    A supply chain venture may be more attractive and much less expensive for SBUX. They need to lower their cost, and expand product.

  • Do Not Panic In August [View article]
    Code,

    If you like CMI, "rumor" has it they are buying NAV this week. This is only rumor, and we all know how those go.

    The three main investors have been increasing their positions quite a bit which puts a little cause for a peak.
    Personally I am attempting to buy long Calls on it around 30.00 the rumored buy rate is 37.00

  • Do Not Panic In August [View article]
    Nice article,

    No need at all to panic in August is right! Simply wait until October and buy or average down on the big drop!

    Cat long, will pay.

  • Billionaire Carl Icahn On Forest Labs, Navistar, Chesapeake And Risks To Stocks [View article]
    Hi Maria,

    Hope school is going well for you.

    What about NAV’s poison pill, won’t there have to be a shareholder vote prior to a sell?

    Mco,

    Sure agree with you there, but there is always money to be made fast when it is announced that he just bought into, or increased his shares of a company.
    People like to jump on his bandwagon, and I appreciate them doing so..$$ I think his NAV announcements have run out there hype.

    Thank you for your response, Icahn may have his hands full with the “Good’ole boys” of CHK they are not to be taken likely.

    I hope the stock does not suffer further in the battle.

    Another excellent article, thanks.

    One question, are you suggesting Icahn is complicating the possibility of a merger or acquisition of CHK?

  • Green Mountain, Is A Merger Brewing? [View article]
    tew,

    You are correct, I currently have Jan. $50. Calls that I plan on profiting on around Christmas, and will see what shorts take place this week prior to earnings before entering near-term.

    I could be wrong, (have been before) but I think they will have a better than expected report with a positive forward looking plan.

    Should an alliance or takeover be in fashion it could be another homerun just like Peets was. The upside risk is worthy at these prices.
