WTW is on its way down. WAY down IMHO. Going short. Outdated model. Women no longer need to go to a room for social interaction or topic discussion. We have that at work and online. Products over priced in grocery comparison. WTW online cannot support the price

If I owned this one in real life and bought on the presumption of an earnings beat, I would be out of it today and take the winnings home for the week. |

Whqat happened?, RAVN now up on the day. Some must see some value. I do not own this, just a random pick for the week. Perhaps it may rise above it's poor earnings report and continue green, but would not bet on it. Fickle stock, now suddenly a big sell down.... and so it goes. Will nickname the stock "Otis" or "YoYo". I wonder if the stock ticker erred? |

Hernia surgery went well. I still don't have any results from the biopsy. I feel like 10 miles of bad road but am very happy this part is over with. Thank you to everyone for your support.

Clark, so glad the operation went well for you, just use a very soft pillow for a few days. VB, very true, kadee can make some good moves on Fridays. And uncle can come up with good weekly picks (but, once in a while he does slip a bit, like all of us.). This is not an easy game to be consistent winner. |
