Peggy Hill and Cotton Hill are running for the White House

Anyone notice that Peggy hill and Cotton Hill are running for president?

I’m sorry for this, it was just too easy, they look so damn much alike.

I’m a huge king of the hill fan and i was watching today I was like, yesssssssssssss.

Back to investing though.

I firmly belive we have bottomed, or why I am holding SSO

We have reached Capitulaton

In my opinion, we found a bottom last friday.

It was textbook, the fall in the open on heavy volume, the high that followed. There is even a cup and handle  pattern in there.

I expect the dow to be back above 9500 by the end of the month, so I am going to hold my 2x the s&p results etf, sso.

Also, i have gotten emails asking if you should liquidate like Jim Cramer says. I say, no, that would be the very definition of buying high and selling low.

If you are young, just wait it out.

Ticketmaster (TKTM) fun: Do I get to see the next Giants game?

ticketmaster Will suck long term

I picked up some shares of Ticketmaster (TKTM) after the rather sizable fall from the day’s highs, it showed some strength at 12.22 after it fell and recovered.

As far as i can see, some shorters entered this morning, possibly on a TIMALERT (by Timothy Sykes), so I figure the daytrading crowd may be a nice way for me to earn money.

I wont be holding this long term as I believe livenation will be the top soon.

Wells Fargo, WFC, Wachovia, WB, Agree to Merge

Well Fare Dolls

Wells Fargo, a company I personally like, has decided to make the stupid move of paying 7$ a share for
Wachovia Corporation (WB) has decided to do the stupid thing of not only buying a bank with really bad assets, but overpaying for it.

That being said, Wells Fargo (WFC) is now on my buy list, and I intend to execute in the next week or two.

Wells Fargo will soon finally be the nation wide bank it always wanted to be.
