Maybe it's not so bad actually....everything will be wiped clean and then you can only go up from there. (hopefully!) |

With what is going to happen to my stocks by the end of the day, I will be happy to finish the month up a full percent...
But I expect to be buying very heavily tomorrow. |

I agree with rewood that I should have sold out earlier this month, but maybe these properties I purchased will start helping me out each month... |

Property values help increase your net worth, but don't do anything to your portfolio return %. Unfortunately.
I am riding out this month with my one remaining loser, will hope for a turn-around next month and see what else I can pick up to help it out. |

Started this month way down in the red but some of my picks finally started to move. I learned from INWB saying how he should of held some stocks longer....Thanks for the inspiration INWB  |

The best that can be said about this month's market is... it provided time for some interesting discussions. Whether I went US, international, Dow or Wilshire, I just couldn't get off the starting blocks.
Let's hope next month we can have more to talk about than just "Have you ever f_rted and left the room because it was so bad".
Ha Ha Ha I think we hit a new low, and I'm not talking market prices  |

I'm surprised I won. I should have a much higher return, but I made a rookie mistake. My portfolio to begin Feb was composed entirely of BWLD. The return was and still is in the teens.
I bought another stock that I thought was underpriced (I was wrong). Even if did increase, my monthly total would still have dropped because the increase would not be as high as BWLD, and it would weigh down the return.
Is this how the game works, or am I interpreting wrong? |

I'm happy you finished the month on a strong note, stick with your winners! My winners hurt me today just as I predicted earlier, but I also think things got sold off way too much today... Who loves Apple at $68.50, Taiwan Semi at $9.50 and is starting to get more interested in RIMM at $70.50? So much to buy, so little money... I may need to make a margin call to a friend.  |

All the best to everyone.
Google, SIRI, XMSR were main culprits for me . i should have sold xmsr and siri before their results came out because every body was expecting losses. Google CFO slow growth prediction came as last rude shock today.
Bye Bye february 2006. Meet you in 2007.
Welcome March 2007.
PS: My returns showing -0.00 % in red. It happened with me second month in a row. I checked it out. You all guys 0.00% in black !!. I am despatching a PM to benjamin asap  |
