Investment Owl Blog: Bulls power over the bears
http://investmentowl.blogspot.com/2009/04/bulls-power-over-bears.html
Stock trader, world traveller PUA. Friday, April 03, 2009. Bulls power over the bears. The markets gapped up in the morning and continued moving up until the afternoon until what looked like there might be a sell off. The markets tried to push through 845 on the S&P and when failed seesawed in to the close. A mild sell off in to the close about 15 minutes before close. On a day when financials are the reasons the market is up. The financials themselves sold off which everything else powered up.

Stock trader, world traveller PUA. Tuesday, May 05, 2009. Messrs. Buffett and Munger on Math and Theories. Excerpt from the Wallstreet Journal:. Messrs. Buffett and Munger made clear their complete disdain for the use of higher-order mathematics in finance. Mr Buffett said: "If you stand up in front of a business class and say a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, you won't get tenure.Higher mathematics my be dangerous and lead you down pathways that are better left untrod.". Two stocks on China.

Stock trader, world traveller PUA. Friday, June 17, 2005. Oil reaches new highs. In the past Saudi Arabia has had the ability to significantly increase their oil production overnight. This is no longer the case: at least not with sweet crude. They are able to increase the production of sour crude only. What is the difference? One of the biggest sour crude capable refiner in the US is Valero Energy ( VLO. This stock has risen from as low as $56 from the sell off in May to the current $80. This company...

Stock trader, world traveller PUA. Tuesday, May 19, 2009. Commodities are back incase you haven't noticed already. Oil, gas, gold. Everything that has actual value as opposed to currencies. The devaluing of the US dollar and massive injections of credit of the Obama administration to curb the downturn means the commodities trade is back on with a vengence. Further, China is stockpiling oil and coal and other raw materials at current depressed prices. Tuesday, May 05, 2009. Two stocks on China. There is s...

Stock trader, world traveller PUA. Wednesday, April 29, 2009. Getting a little short. I haven't been making major trades and also have been staying low in trading. The markets have been meandering back and forth. A terrible environment to trade except for scalping small hourly gains. Without any real trending in the broad markets, this environment has been very unfriendly for gains. Big money is made on the big moves and they will more than cover the small losses. Monday, April 06, 2009. The markets gapp...

http://investmentowl.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Stock trader, world traveller PUA. Monday, March 30, 2009. The S&P held 780 an hour before market closed. But the bounce off that level was weak. There has been some heavy put buying on WFC (Wells Fargo) and the weakness in financials prevented the S&P from making a stronger showing. If 780 doesn't hold tomorrow, look for 750 to be the next strong support. My holdings are minimal at the moment. . Core holdings of AET.un, VT, KGC and AU. Trading position in spwrb and UWM. Thursday, March 26, 2009. However...

Stock trader, world traveller PUA. Saturday, June 24, 2006. The History of Wall Street. I am about to finish reading a fascinating book called 'The Plungers and the Peacocks' by Dada L. Thomas. The author through his research presents the history of Wall Street from its inception to the infamous Tech bust at the turn of the century. The stories are intriguing and grips the reader from page to page. Could history repeat itself in today's sophisticated markets and watchful government regulations? Bill Gate...

Stock trader, world traveller PUA. Wednesday, May 26, 2010. I have temporarily moved and merged this blog to:. Http:/ alfietrade.wordpress.com. Reason for move is Blogger's lack of a Blackberry app and Wordpress's availability of a clean and functional Blackberry app. This new blog will be more than only stock trading but a wider range of topics. Non random thoughts. Also follow me on twitter at www.twitter.com/alfietrade. I still have my photo blog at:. Http:/ spinshock.blogspot.com.
