Stock Pick of the Week - W.E. 15 July 2011

[ModE98]

SBS, bring the horse back to the barn this evening, we need to help both with some good hay and a few shots of Injun Joe's Kickapoo Joy Juice.
Tomorrow may be a better day.

[mtntigger]

Tomorrow WILL be a better day. The trend is still upward, CMFO just needed a little break today. I believe it, therefore it must be true.

[rovo]

I'm coming for you. ;D

[rovo]

D.I. moves past SBS as she stutters a bit. Two more days to go.

[ModE98]

Look out SBS, Rovo is closing on your tail! And, DI is grabbing the lead. Better ride your horse with care and do not get nosed out at the finish. Still think you ought to bring it in for some Kickapoo Joy Juice... needs a "booster".

[mtntigger]

D.I. has been awfully quiet. Maybe I should stop yapping and treat Mod's.... er my horse better.

rovo? You're coming for me? Hmm... according to google right now, your horse is looking a little peaked.

Right now, after-hours is at $356.00

[rovo]

Oh ! After hours trading? I thought she meant there was a story on Google about AAPL peaking. My bad.

[mtntigger]

Thanks yclept!

[tyfighter3]

Isn't he wonderful, right there to help when you need him the most.

[mtntigger]

No sense in .

But it's so much fun! ;D

[yclept]

Get back in the kitchen.
If you can't say something nice about someone, don't say anything at all -- didn't your mother teach you anything at all?
If you can't behave yourself, I'll make you take DE again.

[mtntigger]

Whhhaaaaat? I said "Thanks!" That isn't nice? Oh, you didn't like that I appreciated Ty's humor. ;D

[rovo]

[yclept]

Yeah, that'll keep her occupied and out of trouble:

That's me in the second row... thinking of how many ways there are to commit suicide.

gives me the willies. :-)

[mtntigger]

Ahhhhh, DE meant diffi-qs, not Deere. Ya think THAT's gonna keep me out of trouble?
Now, if you made me take another chemistry class.... <<shudder>>

After hours means nothing. Pre-market is $361.20. What matters is where we end the week.

[mtntigger]

Mod - you jinked CMFO by buying some more stock.

[yclept]

Chemistry? You want Chemistry! How about a little P-Chem, my dear? But then I was a Chemistry Major and finished the Chem curriculum before stupidly deciding to waste two more years of my life and take the degree in Mech Engrg. Though it did delay my entry into the big green cookie cutter for awhile!

Ah, PChem -- the course where it all comes together:
ocw.mit.edu/courses/chemistry/5-61-physical-chemistry-fall-2007/lecture-notes/lecture34.pdf
(I liked Dan's source better than just my course catalog). Of course this is just one day's lecture notes selected at random -- there's a whole lot more good stuff in the course. It's all good!

I think you will particularly like the section:
"Tickling the Molecule With Light"

[ModE98]

SBS, you are so correct, it happens every time!

On second thought, believe Injun Joe left out an ingredient in the latest batch of Kickapoo Joy Juice and the horses did not get the boost they needed. They sure appear a bit tired.

We can always hope for tomorrow.....

[ModE98]

SBS, guess we should have gone pink sheets and picked FUQI.....some big fool just bought 20,000 shares, up 0.10.... and it is still in jail for misreporting last few years. Strange. Maybe someone actually believes the new CEO will turn this all around. The way things go these days, anything is in the realm of possibility.

[mtntigger]

<<shudder>> As you said earlier yclept..."Chemistry? We don't need no stinkin' chemistry." I actually looked at those notes. The tickling sounds intriguing, but I just don't see the point of taking a chemistry class if I can't blow anything up.

Tomorrow Mod? Maybe. I still think it's on the upward trend, but I don't think that I'll get a chance to cream, stomp on or annihilate rovo. Which, of course, is the whole purpose of the game, right?

[ModE98]

SBS ... today you can grab his horse's tail, as Rovo gallops by CMFO.... hang on to it tightly, as the looks of the action for today is bleak for our steeds. Perhaps you can impede his progress.

Are you sure the whole purpose of the game is to leave Rovo "in the dust"? Perhaps he does not understand, and will not pull on the reigns a bit, so we can remain competitive.
We need mercy!

Do not believe he will give us any "easing" and the pressure is on.

[architecto25]

As stock pickers, let's hope today's action does not reflect on our true talents. At the moment my screen shows all 16 entries in the red ( for today ).....

[rovo]

D.I. holds the lead going into the final turn. rovo and the new guy, Trongersoll, are in hot pursuit but are having trouble keeping up with him. SBS seems to have eaten some bad fish and uncle.23's steed has expired.

[ModE98]

The only redeeming feature of today is..... "it could have been worse"

DI seems to have a tenuous, but full length lead on Rovo. Tomorrow at 4 p.m. will reveal if he can hang on.

[danshirley]

"I liked Dan's source better than just my course catalog "

Here's the whole course:
videolectures.net/arthur_mattuck/

That'll keep you busy for a while

[mtntigger]

Uggh! Everyone except Trongsersoll reeked today.
