LEGO Thoughts: November 2009
http://lego-warren-simon.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Rambling LEGO thoughts of a Rambling Dad. Monday, November 9, 2009. I figured I'd start this blog off with something simple (no idea when I'll get to "complex"). Late one night I was playing with some 2x2 bricks and ended up with some simple "textures", for lack of a better word, basically placing the bricks together in various ways. Inventive name, huh? In this texture, I think (I really can't remember .) I placed each brick on one and two studs of the two bricks below. Very good blog; check it out.

Investing Thoughts: January 2010
http://investing-warren-simon.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Rambling investing thoughts of a Rambling Dad. Wednesday, January 6, 2010. My check arrived a few days ago. I unfortunately immediately threw out the accompanying letter, but it stated that investors had lost somewhere in the neighborhood of $2.4B (another "B" for billion). The total settlement for all defrauded and maimed and raped (and pillaged) former shareholders came to somewhere around $12M (that one is an "M" for million). So far we're down by a factor of 200 or so. Saturday, January 2, 2010.

Investing Thoughts: Even more AMZN options
http://investing-warren-simon.blogspot.com/2009/11/even-more-amzn-options.html
Rambling investing thoughts of a Rambling Dad. Thursday, November 12, 2009. Even more AMZN options. My limit order went through this morning. AMZN closed UP, amazingly, to $130.54, waaaaay above what I figured it would be on this day and will be in the next few weeks. The math:. 1,270 / 30 Jan 80 AMZN Puts = $.423/option. So my cost basis has averaged down from my initial $.53/option to $.423/option. That is the good news. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Why the Dow 30?

The stock itself, up until a day or two ago, just refused to go down (not bad otherwise for me, since I purchased a chunk long ago at $7 per share which I still own). It topped out at $145.91 last Thursday, just 3 trading days ago. Wow! Self not only can this not continue much more, but it must go down . It is just too big a jump! View my complete profile.

Investing Thoughts: Disney buys Marvel
http://investing-warren-simon.blogspot.com/2010/01/disney-buys-marvel.html
Rambling investing thoughts of a Rambling Dad. Saturday, January 2, 2010. Long ago I purchased a buttload (a relative term) of shares of Marvel Entertainment ( MVL. Formerly Marvel Enterprises and several other company name iterations). Cost basis is just over $5 per share. I bought these shares almost entirely in 1999 and 2000, and slightly more in 2002 and 2005. This past Thursday, December 31, 2009, my fellow Marvel shareholders and I voted to allow The Walt Disney Company ( DIS. So it's not all bad .
