It Cant Be Done (21 Mar 2006) Wouldn't it be nice if you were only in the stock market when it was going up and have everything transferred to cash while it is going down? It is called 'market timing' and your broker or financial planner will tell you "it can't be done". What that person just told you is he doesn't know how to do it. He doesn't know his job.
Stock Market Insanity (21 Mar 2006) Let's first define insanity. It is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. And that is what most investors do and they can't understand why they are not able to make money in the stock market.
Its A Bull, Its A Bear, Its Suptertrader! (21 Mar 2006) The higher the market goes the more confusing are the "experts". In the September 14 issue of Investor's Business Daily newspaper we find the great prognosticators such as:
Intervention (21 Mar 2006) Intervention. Now don't let that big word scare you. The talking heads on TV have been discussing it all week because the major banks of the world are going to "prop up" the Euro.
Is Your Garage Full Of Junk? (21 Mar 2006) I have a 2-car garage. There are nice shelves on one side and a good practical workbench with a vice on the other side. Plenty of room for 2 cars yet I have to be careful when I pull in so I won't run over stuff stacked on each side. Sound familiar?
Its A Duck (21 Mar 2006) If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck and looks like a duck it must be a duck.
Its Better (21 Mar 2006) Question: How does it get better when it gets worse?
Market Globalization (21 Mar 2006) Just 30 years ago the stock market was a shadow of what it is today. There were many fewer shareholders and the daily volume was a fraction of what it is at present. No one thought you would every be able to trade a billion or more shares in one day. Of course that was in the old days when they had tickers and the word digital was something you did with your fingers.
Market Timing (21 Mar 2006) Every broker and financial planner will tell you that you cannot time the stock market. I saw John Bogle, the great seer of Vanguard, on CNBC saying it can't be done. Of course, it is easy to understand why he and every other mutual fund manager would say that as they would have a problem managing huge inflows and outflows of money and he was buying and holding during the 18-year bull from 1982 to 2000.
Momentum (21 Mar 2006) Momentum - the only easy way I know to make consistent profits in the market and I was a floor trader for 17 years.
