Hopefully the title is pretty self-explanatory: if eInvesting.com was a publically traded stock and you had to take a position, would you be long or short right now?

Perhaps even better, what if there were some derivatives on eI? Personally, I'd look to be short the call and long the put to leverage up into a nice synthetic short.

I think you guys should add in some calculation of dividends because it is part of the return on investment. You may want to addin a short function as well.

Speaking of short ... the OIL & GAS industry has gone way way up with oil at record high of $132/barrel. Time to short some volatile players?

Take a look at SSN, FPP, MXC, TGC, CRED, PDO.

"Looks like" one final ramp in dem idiot stocks this moanin. Ov da fo...FPP will mo than likely be the only one ta breach its frenzied idiot run high ov $8 dallahs anna fisty fo centavos. Da windup? NE1 holding MXC, SSN, or PDO chort kin hedge mit FPP long till she hits 8.55+. Wink Same theory as me DCR/USO strangle. One cud put a chort ta USO on this moanin's run (which "shud" take da beeeyotch thru 108.36 hopefully) and stawt buyin DCR shares as soon as it's direct opposite (UCR) takes out 39.84.

Well, ifn you bees lookin fer "long term" oppertoonuties...where elst ya's gonna look? Confused You "do" realize dat USO has a date mit $62 dallahs minimum I hope. Sure....that ainna long term cuz when da fall begins it'll git there in a veeeeeery chort time frame being dat the initial day of selling will be a $10 dallah down day....followed by "cascade" selling. But doan axe me....axe da mawkets. I'm wreckin you doan see what HAL is tellin ya about Earl, right? Embarassed Rolling Eyes I "hope" you unnnerstand dat HAL eventually be a $4 dallah stock. Shocked Sho...it "sounds" shocking now.....but it's aaaaall theya on da 5 year chawt. Wink
