[added: bluerobin, I just looked at your post time. I was referring to me...................not you........... Good morning everyone.[/quote]

What??? I am not smart?

Here have some more fermented apples for your horse!

[ModE98]

Today it appears CGA is going to get me in the bottom group.... it gets worse. Do not know what sellers are thinking; but, sure wish I could win the lottery and "buy the farm" this afternoon. I smell a "fire sale" going on, yet I see no real fire to extinguish.

If anyone can spot a "fire" please let me know.

ValueBuy lengthens his lead. 2kids10horses is second and the Benchmark is third.

Uncle, if this keeps up, you are going to be hard to catch! But, if CGA stays on course, will give it a try. Tomorrow comes the dash to the finish, with VB already with a very substantial lead. Good luck to all.

[architecto25]

You know, I've noticed that these horses we're entering in this race sort of act like the stock market...... UP one day; DOWN the next.

Ya think?

[2kids10horses]

My horse didn't pass any others, they just slowed down faster than my horse did!

LOL, Given the current Issues at 3 Mile Island, My Horse might be Glowing in the Dark.

[Bluerobin]

<Joins Arch in having a few fermented apples. Feeds the horses too.>

[Value Buy]

Woke up this morning to see I am leading the pack in the far turn, but the futures markets and Europe look like they are popping today, so some of you might come flying around the final turn.........

I won't be around this weekend......last week of camping, and do not know if I will get here before the opening bell Monday, so I want to take a certain nag next week based on something I never thought I wanted until yesterday.........

The I phone 5
Time to trade in the ole cell phone thats like six years old and does not even take a picture.
I am really old school...........
If I want one,the stock has to be the winner next week.
I have to go with Apple.
Apple long.

[Bluerobin]

DI what is going on at 3 Mile Island? Another meltdown?

[clarkrl2]

ValueBuy goes wire to wire finishing well ahead of runner-up 2kids10horses. The Benchmark was negative but good enough for third place.

Ha. ha, hee, hee .... beat out Uncle for lowest rung on the ladder. <Thanks to some entity that sold 42,122 shares on the last transaction of the day.>

Does someone or a boiler mill operator have some dire information about to break? Is is a conspiracy or a bold short play? As my old Norwegian uncle would say: "Something smells rotten in Denmark" (an ill wind blows).
Based stats and fundamentals, makes no sense. Hmmm, law suit or judgement to be announced? No news.

Think someone wanted to do a Swan Dive, but did a Belly Flop instead.

[ModE98]

Comment to the last tramsaction 42,122 share CGA seller, "You dirty rat!"

Congratulations to VB for a runaway win this week! Over 5 lengths!
2&10 abd Ty holding up for Place and Show.... tough race.

[2kids10horses]

Mod, are there options on your horse? Today was expiration day. They might have sold options that they wanted to expire worthless. So by selling, they dropped the price so much the options fell out of the money.

I wouldn't be surprized to see those shares bought back in the first transaction on Monday!

Blue - Not sure. All I know is that 3 Mile Island according to what has been said went into Automatic Shutdown. The only other thing I know besides the Companies statement to the effect of "No Danger exisits from the Automatic shutdown" - Come from a Friend of mine who lives down near there, And he Said that there are N.R.C Guys all over the place and a trailer that says N.E.S.T in the one parking lot.

Probably, something simple happened - and given the Beefed up systems after the first Incident - The Gov. Guys from the NRC and N.E.S.T. are just being overly cautious.

[kadee79]

Congrats VB! Good race!

I wouldn't be too sure on that. All of our nuclear plants are aging. They have already loosened the regs so they would all pass inspections. Most of them have areas or portions that need serious up-dates.
This just might be the wake-up warning that is needed to get something done! Glad I don't live close to one any longer!!!

[Bluerobin]

Congrats VB.

DI and Kadee, we are about 90 miles from 3 Mile, so it is a minor concern. Let's hope things are contained. Funny, the local papers haven't printed a thing!

[ModE98]

Thanks 2&10, I do not fully understand options, so if that is a probable cause, no big concern. There are so many twists and turns going on all the time in the markets it is hard to keep up to speed.
