PCG, how low does it go this week? Dropping like a rock this morning-does it continue downward? Do they file bankruptcy this week? $5.00 Friday, $3.37 right now
USS, ticker X, was up Friday and early trading today. Does it pop this week?
AAPL, reports this week, and stock has been on a great run. Does it continue this week?
PCG, short it. The fires are not conducive for saving the stock price this week

Not yet. This stock flew out of the gate today. I thought I had another 20% plus loser again this week  Not sure if shorts started covering today, but I wonder why they would do that. And I think they are in bankruptcy already aren't they? Can't do it again! I only considered this pick after watching the news this morning showing those fires from last night. The company cannot catch a break. I probably should have gone with Apple company this week. X would be an unknown winner/loser until Friday |

VB, deleted "Bankrupt" from my post, you are correct, not there yet. Law firms are filing class action suits, so one of these days, they will be filing for bankruptcy so they can to try to save what they can.  ADDENDUM 4.44 EST; I am confused. Yes, they have declared bankruptcy. You are correct, again. Gettin' OLD! |

Value Buy, maybe you should tell your horse that the trophy will be at the finish line. I briefly saw the negative 24% on bigcharts for PCG; and quickly wondered why you were not No. 1 today. Then I checked the Open price and the close …………. the same. And then you had the ZERO...… but 90 million vol. You should hope for no fantastic short covering. That is during the next 5 days.....anyway. Arch. |

Yes, they have declared bankruptcy. You are correct, again. Gettin' OLD! Mod96, I referenced bankruptcy might happen in my original post about picking the stock. My later post where I mentioned they had already filed bankruptcy was to correct MY ERROR! For the record my name goes back to the old CNBC investing boards before they closed down and we were left with the MSN Boards. It describes my investing style, play it safe, buy value stocks and go long term! |

That is during the next 5 days.....anyway. Arch. Yeh, it seems many weeks a lot of us get taken out on the opening price on Monday's opening..... Yesterday in premarket trading it was sinking like a rock, then viola, opens way up and went higher. I was down something close to 20% above the opening price before it started going down and then rose near the close to remain flat. Premarket today, it is up 10% or so. Looks like it will trade this week until it closes Friday afternoon..... After seeing more damage this morning in California, where a company not only is not selling electricity but has hundreds of accounts literally burning down, I cannot fathom any invester buying this stock right now. It will take years for a turnaround and rebuild the actual lines, infrastructure, which buries them in costs, or as some Californians are talking now, take it over and run it through the government which basically kills the invester's value to zero..... I imagine some day traders are playing the stock now, but will not want to be long the stock this weekend. At least that is what I am counting on. |

Please, someone shoot my horse!
I am currently down 30% just today.
I guess buyers think the state will pay more money if the state buys them out.
I cannot fathom that happening, but I cannot understand why this stock is up 30% today.......

Value Buy, I think most of "we market players" have gone thru many market volatility days. I just turned my computer on today less than one hour ago. Been doing lots of "paper catch-up" as any old man does. Remember this week's contest is only over at the week's end. Arch.

I read some place a few days ago that they wouldn't give refunds to the folks who they shut off but didn't burn down....must have been people wanting a refund on the monthly charge before usage is added on...the base rate. If anyone sues for that...there will be more to pay out or at least more claims. |
