The trade you want to make is long deflationary assets and short inflationary assets.

I'm buy and hold, so it's been a decent time to buy stocks for me. These brutal sell offs suck to watch, but they aren't bad in the long term. The fiscal cliff does make me a tad nervous but I think they will figure it out before hand.

Just looking at Groupon's stock...I wonder when it will drop to $1 and less. It never had a unique business model that can sustain itself and fend out competition. Looking back, I bet Google is pretty happy that Goupon rejected the $6 billions deal.

Bought my first groupon in months (as in deal, not set items) the other day. I think they will stay above $1 for a while

Keep an eye on CLSN. Has had a +20% run recently but off its recent high. Phase 3 results for a big drug coming in the new year (January, I believe), market cap <$200m.

One of my stock pick actually made it onto the Losers list on Google finance. Damn.

Wow, I was expecting some stability and upward movement after the election, no matter who won as at least we would have resolution on that important question.  I guess I was wrong.  I bought into those sell offs just prior to the election and am wishing I stayed more in cash now.  :(

 


Why were you expecting that? This is typical post election in my experience.

APL's recent activity has single handedly eliminated all the gains I've ever made in investing since last year.

I ******* hate Tim Cook. This ****** is supposed to be an expert with supply chain management, yet every single product released recently has had supply chain issues.
