  • Is It Safe? [View article]
    Any thoughts on when the energy trusts like pwe, pbt, etc are right to buy. The divs are great and nat. gas is not going out of style any time soon. Deflation fears and falling demand are cons, I know, but at these prices they are tempting

    Yank.....astute observation...logicall... there should be a great trade on RIG in here. My experience, sadly, is that being right does not always make you money...the trick is knowing what the market will do before it reacts. Then there is the OBamma factor which also hurts prospects here.

  • Long Ideas for This Volatile Market  [View article]
    Great advice (intelligent exit strategy)......pros have learned that stops are a fools game as you will invariably get taken out at the lows. Trailing stops are better but with the vix hitting record levels this is not practical either since you will be taken out in short order unless your stop is too wide to protect profits anyway. This leaves (a)...spending your day at the computer ready for action...(b)....employ... more sophisticated protection like selling calls against a position or shorting a less favored stock in the same sector....not alot of good choices that I see considering that the premiums on puts are way too high to be practical. Any better ideas...I'm all ears!
