Sears Holdings, SHLD reports this week. No matter how good results will be, and I do not think they will be good.......this stock should tank this week with people getting out of it. SHLD short. If this stock goes positive I give up on having any stock picking abilities

Value Buy, picking stock symbols is no big deal. All you have to do is get 2 coins. One with 2 heads; one with 2 tails .... or get a new dart board .... with only one dart... LOL. Good morning everyone. SE Texas having very rainy weather (next day or two). Arch.

I surrender. I no longer have any stock picking abilities.
SHLD up 25% on a corporation being dismantled by it's majority owner selling properties at a discount to another subsidiary of his own to keep his losses to a minimum.

It is for me.........
Interesting note.....I went back to old races and checked what I went with last year. It was SHLD, and I shorted it last year and went down in flames. My back up choice was ULTA, which I did not pick last year. Guess what ULTA did today? It would not be enough to propel me near the top, but at least I would probably beat the QQQ'S
