What are you buying?

Wow, DND opened at $1.51 this morning and already is at $2.11 & rising; good thing I did not sell all.

I'm surprised that given today's news, the volume is so low, hence the reason I sold earlier in the morning.

al: $.15 cents is not exactly great volatility for BMO; maybe for a penny stock. But anyway, BMO now nearing $55, so you're already up!

Yeah I know...I was just pointing out my recent track record of when I buy something it goes down.

I have the same issue. When this does happen, unless you are trading, it is more important where the stock is 6 weeks, 6 months and more importantly 6 years from the date of purchase. not 6 minutes or even end of day. I know it can be tough to battle that hindsight psychology of getting it at a lower price.

Looks like a good purchase to me.

cheers.

I know what you meant, but I was just teasing you about the fugacious BMO volatility; nothing like what happened to DND today for example.

londoncalling: of course, it matters only for the crazy traders, aka gamblers. [I hardly look at my long-term stocks, except for when it's time to add more].

EGO: $10.99 - [fantastic trading stock the last few days, but I'll hold this price].

Don't let your EGO get in the way of your trading.

Bought some more TDB911 today, and I bought some TRP last week.

Cashed in some XSB today and bought BMO @ $54.46 and some more COS @ $20.17. BMO beat profit expectations and has a dividend of 5.2% which is well covered by earnings. And I've already mentioned COS previously but dividend is now 6.9%.

Could get burned in the short-term if Europe implodes, but traditionally times of great uncertainty have been buying opportunities. Still have "dry powder" if things get worse.

Haven't done much with the market since selling Fortis. Topped up corporate bonds from 6% to 10% yesterday with XCB. Will provide better yield than cash, and increase margin maintenance to rollover my lonesome GOOG when it expires in June.

Got a GTC limit order set for TD at 72.00 with the Fortis money. Wishful thinking. Thinking about re-entry into silver at these levels, but a bit worried.

COS.TO @ $20.20. Technical analysis on this looks good.
