  • Why Visa Got Spanked [View article]
    V-Winner, please read Frank's article. How many times you gonna say that V is not a financial? V is a financial because Wall Street says so. Wall Street makes the rules and what you say doesn't mean anything. You were so bold to say that V would never fall below $75.00 and predicted it would see $100 before end of summer. Wall Street beat the price of V down without your blessing because they can. Sure, Wall Street is illogical just as Frank says. In other words, Wall Street walks the walk, and your babble is just talk.

  • Upbeat Outlook for Credit Card Backed Securities - S&P [View article]
    V-Winner. When V was over $80 you were so bold as to say V would never see $75 again.
    You were so confident, that you started your own little web site and invited all your little followers to join the party. After V got beaten down you came back to this forum on a mission of mercy to save us.

    Please, V-Winner just take your babble somewhere else!

  • IPO Watch: Battered, Beaten and Pulped in 2008 (Except Visa) [View article]
    Didn't VWINNER say that Visa would NEVER NEVER NEVER go under $75.00 in our lifetime!! He knows nothing!! VWINNER should use his time to take care of his own blog and his little band of followers: "Rah, Rah, Go Visa Go!!" VWINNER go back to your own blog where they idle and worship you.

  • Visa Estimates Upped Through 2010 [View article]
    Well, what was going on in the 1980's don't account for much today.
    I remember banks were paying us over 20% APR interest in the 80's too!
    Obviously MA is the leader at this time. MA beat V to the stock market by a couple of years because they had their business in order.

    What happened to V-winner? He's on Visa like a silly little high school cheer leader. Go Visa Go!! Give me a V, Give me an I, etc etc.
    Just want to remind him that he said V would never see $75 again.
    V dipped to 74.36 on May 28.
    Wasn't he predicting 90 or 100 by end of May?

  • Penn West Energy Trust: An Underappreciated Gem [View article]
    I got in just a couple of months before the Halloween Tax announcement. After it dropped 30% market price on OCT 31, 2006 and further in the following months, I decided to wait it out and hope it regained. Eventually some of the Canroys actually did recovered market price. Meanwhile I've been drawing the dividend like clockwork every month. I'm still down 11% on the market price, so hope you are correct that we may see an up move in the price. Having a portion of my portfolio gaining a 13% dividend is better than having the money in a 3% money market. Sometimes I get the urge to sell it to free up some money for more aggressive investments. Your article gives me hope to make a decent profit if the price ticks upwards by chance. Guess I'll have to selll some of my slow moving stock like TM or CAT and buy all the V and aapl that I can get my hands on.

    thanks, HT

  • Visa, MasterCard: A Chance to Profit as Markets Go Mad [View article]
    Hello V Winner,

    You say youve traded V 500 hundred times and made a fortune?
    Mind sharing your strategy of predicting the lows and highs and how to execute? Do you sit in front of the PC with your finger on the trigger or do you set stops and limits ahead of time? I still consider myself a beginner. I keep an eye on things best I can while working at my real job (or vise-versa sometimes).
    I've owned MA several times in the past couple of years and always able to ride for $30-40 gains. Mostly I wait for pullbacks and jump on for the ride up (if I'm Lucky). Hindsight wish I would have bought V 2 weeks ago when it was 65. I think MA reports good earnings tomorrow and pulls V up with it. I think I missed my chance with V.

    Funny you mention IPI, as I bought POT today on a pullback.
    Also bought AAPL last week on a pullback.

    I think good advice to the 21 year old to pick STRONG companies. But not so sure to point him at an IPO such as IPI. I could be talking out of line here as I havent done any homework IPI, but what I'm saying is that IPI hasn't been been proven on Wall Street. As for V, even though its an IPO, it's a nobrainer that its going nowhere but up.
