I bought SPRD at the closing bell on Friday after the stock dropped when they reported their bad quarterly results.
I'm looking for a rebound in this emerging market company.


btw. Where is T.gal? I want to know what she's been buying lately.

I'm back now.

I'm buying/trading my usual stuff; nothing fancy, just stocks I know well and that have done nicely for me.

My latest buys yesterday were tranches of POT and EGO.

Have never traded GRPN, but maybe it's time to do after the -18% drop yesterday & another -23% in pre-trading hours 2day.

Marina: I hope you were able to sell your last purchase before the recent drops.

Hope you're still doing great avrex!

I think you've got to be nuts to buy GrouPONZI. I've done a couple of trades, but always on the short side. I'm not going to fight the trend in this sucker!

Now speaking of shorts - I am looking at getting short FB. Wish I'd taken a short position (using options of course) prior to earnings but the damned things were just too expensive. Maybe now that it's down here around 20 the puts will get reasonable. They are going to get crushed when this thing comes out of lockup IMO.

Not buy, but trade. Haven't done so yet because it has not reached my price; currently at -27%. I'm sure a good trader can make money from this.

I don't ever short stocks. I made money with FB early on, and now I'll just wait for the lock-up period to expire and see how low they will go.

I sold groupon at a 12% loss weeks ago, and boy am I glad I did!

The unfortunate thing is I actually like groupon as a business, I used a groupon last night and had a wonderful wonderful meal! However, this does not correlate as a good trading stock. For the time being I'll stick to businesses with more tangible assets.

I don't hold this type of risky stock, I day-trade them, though this particular one I have never traded yet. Been waiting for it to drop to $4/$5.

Your definition of 'good trading stock' may differ from mine.

Glad you sold before today; IMHO, Young&Ambitious should definitely not be trading with these!

Nobody else bought THI today? It dipped below $50. Although I do wish the dividend were a little higher.

I had a limit at $47.5 but cancelled after it dropped. I was hoping it would drop below $45 but I still think it's a little expensive.
