Still Going

Some stocks are in a world of their own.

Look at GME.

Despite the weak consumer and rich valuation, the stock keeps going higher. Also, it is widely believed that gaming is resistant to economic slow downs.

Fund managers can’t get enough of the stock.

I can spit out a quick list of 52 week highs, but why bother?

Plus anyway, I’m too busy eating eggs with hashbrowns, than to go dig up meaningless data for a group of fucktards.

Just know, when stocks get “annointed” by wall street, they tend to bounce back faster than others, post market correction.

That’s why “The Fly” is not trying to get “cute” or “fancy” with his recent picks. He’s falling back on what has worked in the past, mainly because it’s the end of the year and nobody gives a shit about fundamentals.

It’s all about getting drunk, while throwing heavy hand tools at your trader/servant.

As for today’s trading:

Thus far it looks like we are setting up for a minor pullback, with chinese related names leading the way down. However, I would not sell short anything here. There is a better than average chance we will hit new highs, by year end.

Currently, there is weakness in many of the financials, with COF leading the pack of spastic retards.

For the most part, with the exception of AXP, the DOW looks solid.

Finally, looking for new ideas, I believe the internet advertising space is a good place to put money, ahead of the 2008 Presidential elections. As you know, there will be a “recockulous” amount of money spent on internet advertising, over the next 12 months.Without a doubt, both VCLK and OMTR will be in play.

NOTE: The MVIS CES run has begun.

    Watching NSM. It should be down about 3-4% after the AH release but it has turned around. It could be a signal to buy the chips today (for daytraders).

    Revelation-

    Danny used ricockulous first, even before ibank was opened for business.

    Therefore, the e version is simply a derivative.

    As such, its patents are worthless.

    For stocks in a world of their own, see: ZIXI

    Mentioned this on your blogspot blog last month, but reiterating:

    ZIXI is GOOG’s (very quiet) encryption provider. They also provide those encryption services to lots of governmental/institutional clients.

    In addition, they are also in the e-prescription business (a natural follow-on from secured communication).

    New legislation presented in the last day or two to speed adoption of e-prescribing, including Medicare kickbacks to doctors for joining up. ZIXI extremely well-positioned.

    Imagine a platform that holds patient information, holds/correlates insurance information, maintains (and suggests certain drugs in the) formulary, warns doctors of possible drug interactions, allows doctors to prescribe within an ins co’s formulary (saving big healthcare 3-5%, proven in small scale testing), removes “doctor scrawl” / “oops, sorry about your husband – wrong drug!” errors, etc.

    ZIXI derives revenue from sale&service of/for the PDA prescription pads and/or internet portal, as well as per script. Also, lots of room for marketing tie-ins there, esp. in light of big pharma’s seeking new ways (other than hiring thousands of drug reps) to market to physicians.

    For fly to adopt, maybe theme it: “Soak the sick!” ?

    In at $3.50, $4.11, $4.50. Not going anywhere until GOOG makes an offer to gain foothold into healthcare information services.

    Rumor from CES is that MVIS has found a way to put a chicken rotisserie oven inside a cell phone. Due for mass production in 2008, this game changer is suppose to make the iPhone so 2007.

    these companies operating margins are acceptable until about $50 oil.

    the other issue is Canuck taxes, something I know little about, nor would I want to live there.

    I’ve been in the Canroys since 2001. They ride up/down with oil/gas, and all have taken a hit with the 2006 “Halloween tax”, and most recently with the drop in oil. ERF is good also. Best to stick with the big players with consistent payout ratios. Also, you get the tax credit back on the tax the Canucks deduct, so better to have outside an IRA (you can’t claim the credit in the confines of an IRA)

    Bison — Wang Hung Lo is done by someone without a sense of humor.

    This is evidenced by his inability to harvest even the lowest hanging fruit from the stereotypical comedy tree — viz, “Wun” should be the first name, not “Wang.”
