How long you typically have to sit on these short term investments before you flip em?

Depends on how much it moves.... bought ALU for 1.33 and its at 1.90 so i sold today..

But if i can make 15-25% and i dont feel i can get much more i sell

Some i hold a month or two and some only days...its like fishing just have to read and read and read about a stock and look at volume and trends


Key victory for cheap stocks are days after Obama speaks

I guess it's a good way to pass the time considering you sit on your arse 14 days out of the month ...

SLB (Schlumerger) jumped 5.43% to $82.75/share today following better than expected second quarter numbers being released.
I bought in at $65/share.

I cant decide to sale now before something screws the whole stock market up or hold and see how the rest of the year plays out.

I know SLB kicker BHC (Baker Hughes) arse this quarter and everything I have read says the the second half of the year is projected to be better than first.
I know that there is a steady stream of deepwater rigs moving back in to the GOM.

The way I see it is SLB offers high tech premium tools and services at a premium price.

This is why their tools and services are more popular in deep water and other applications with high rig costs.
Maybe this is why the decrease in land rigs in NAM has not hurt SLB as much as other service companies? Just a thought...


Any thoughts or opinions? I dont follow the stock market very closely so I may be looking at it completely wrong.
Maybe one of you guys who know tje market can syraighten me out.

TPLM @ $10.88

If I had some money and the balls to listen to you guys I'd be making some cash in the market... Nice call on these stocks!!

I do about 75% on my own by reading and researching stocks from a few paid sites

I also work around guys who play the market so we share info

And I have a stock broker too but he is not a real gambler so he mainly recommends stocks with higher paying dividends....
