The Truth Hurts :(

Hi Folks,

I need to to report that my short positions on RICK and TASR cost me 3.8% in the last two to three days.

That's not the positive gains I am looking for. When your trading stocks you have to be like a quarterback, you have to have short memory. Face your loses and forget them.

I am doing much better riding the bull on Google's back.

Oh yea I have added YGE to the "Wish I owned it list" - Large producer of photo electric cells & its a Chinese based company & a bird told me that the photoelectric cell industry is about to heat up. Solar is going to be in big play before the end of 2007 (like oil is now)


Report more soon.

Out of my short positions - TASR and RICK

I am out of my shorts ladies and gentleman. I think the bull market is going to run up everything. I may jump in GOOG or DPDW. I am also sniffing Nintendo.

Out of TASR too much good news lawsuits dismissed

The stock is up almost 4% uncomfortable with the stocks gains, covering my shorts early this morning. It will be a challange because I will have to look at how many bids (people want to buy the stocks) are out there versus the asks (people want to sell).

Basically TASR got a couple of the lawsuits dismissed which is bad for me and good for taser...

At the start of the day

TASR - $12.68 - Betting it will drop - $12.75 ticking lower :)
RICK- $14.50 - Betting it will drop - $14.44 ticking lower :)
PBR- $94.50 - Betting it will rise - $94.43 ticking lower :(

Here are my short positions for the day

TASR - $12.68 - Betting it will drop
RICK- $14.50 - Betting it will drop
PBR- $94.50 - Betting it will rise

TASR is up 2.% in pre market activity

TASR - Oh boy. TASR is up $.30 in pre market trading. I can't lie I am feeling the squeeze here. The one thing I have learned is to not panic at the beginning of the day and to check the price if you have to sell the afternoon is a good time.We will see.

RICK - No pre market movement on RICK . I was just asking my friends why can't someone investigate them or something :) I mean I have read in several financial boards that they are the Amsterdam of the America and have legalized prostitution - come on some one please investigate these guys

PBR - Down .77% or $.77 in pre market trading.

Looks like my short positions are all treating me bad today.

Shorted TASR @ 12.77

Executed order at 9:31

TASR on CBS The Early Show - Really Bad Press

Goodmorning,

I know that this weekend I was thinking about shorting TASR. I just remember that stock when I was investing in it around $8 a share. Now its in the low teens and dropping. Something tells me with all the bad press that we may see it test some new lows.

I think that walking to my shower and seeing this on the Morning Show is a sign (check out the video yourself). I also think that the UN debating wether to label TASERING a form of torture is even worst.

Listen I am going to SHORT THE HECK OUT OF TASR this morning. I usually don't do any trades until about 10, but this is going to be an exception.

So for the record I have short positions in RICK and now TASR.

Wish me luck!

Thinking Of Shorting TASR

Good Sunday Morning,

The serious traders never stop thinking about what new opportunities they might exploit. I have been working on some websites when I walked into my room and my iMac was showing me the the most interesting RSS feed on my screen saver. Oh this is going to sound bad, but not as bad as me invseting in Cephid (CPHD) when the anthrax scar hit, ok here we go:

Man Dies From Taser (read article on TASR)


This causes me mixed feelings. I feel bad for the man who died but I see what most investors are going to see on Monday. Canada, who just armed their version of the police, with these TASER's are going to see some resistance to using them in the future.

And oh yea didn't they just get a deal in England too? Didn't I read something about the brit's trading in their billy clubs for Tasers...(I always feel like Austin Power's saying laser when I say TASER)

This could spell trouble. Especially since this stock has lost about a third of its value since the beginning of October.

I am thinking about shorting this stock on Monday. After hours trading has the stock ticking down. This may be a good one or two day in and out profit pump.

I will keep you posted...
