Weekend Reading – November 24, 2007

Filed under: Weekend Reading — Tags: — Jorge @ 4:02 pm

With my fiancee recovering from surgery, I’ve had quite a bit of time to read up on what I’ve missed this week. Without any delay, here’s a few articles I found interesting this week.

Everything should return to normal next week.  I’ll see you all in the market Monday!

Weekend Reading – November 10, 2007

Filed under: Weekend Reading — Tags: — Jorge @ 1:44 pm

Hope everyone’s enjoying their Veteran’s Day holiday weekend. Remember that the equities markets will be open Monday but the bonds market I believe will be closed. Anywho, here’s a short list of articles I’ve managed to enjoy this week throughout the market free fall. Enjoy!

  • Blain on Stocktradingtogo explains why liquid money (oil and gold… pretend the gold’s in a melted form) is much better than the actual US currency, the Peso… err.. Dollar.
  • Dean Reese (I believe the same Dean Reese on Stockpickr.com) posted on the Trading Goddess’ blog regarding the ‘perfect storm’ rally we may be facing with the market this week.
  • I came across Optionaddict.net a few days ago and I have to say I couldn’t be any happier. It’s a great wealth of information and the readers are extremely friendly and helpful. OA recently posted how E-Mini futures work especially as a use for hedging against what we’ve seen recently.
  • Looks like Timothy Sykes, author of An American Hedge Fund, is back in the game with the TIM portfolio and about $12,000 in assets. Yes Tim, it’s awful not being able to day trade. The margin calls on a pattern day trader are scary, at least for folks doing this the first time around!
  • Cheesecake Factory wins $74 million in a lawsuit this week. Why? Some mall didn’t want them as tenants.

Options expiration is this Friday. Festival of Stocks will be hosted here again on Monday as well.  Just a friendly heads up!
