Q: New Question: u got to love the action in PHM after that horrible quarter.stock
climbs back to almost even.8 strait quarter misses many of witch were much worse
than expected.we all know homebuilders r early cycle stocks ,but what will it
take to knock some of these homebuilder stocks down??it does not matter how bad
they report earnings or how much money they lose ,these stocks r invincible .can
not be taken down.just look at tol stock over the last 2 and a half years, flat
despite the fact they have not made a profit in years and r really not much
better than they were 2 years ago.u take out the gov's tax credit bail out for
the housing sector and almost every homebuilder would go under.... despite all
that i still like buying these for a trade on big dips as their stocks never
break down no matter how bad of news their is. what would it take to crush
some of these homebuilders????

Q: I can see where this below is heading...It all points to a WAR (be it a trade
war or military war) that squashes/cancels/voids the HUGE debt to China by USA.
I see it as plain as day. Thats how we're going to stick it to em on the loans.
The groundwork has been being laid for months now.

HONG KONG (MarketWatch) -- Several high-ranking Chinese military officers want
Beijing to sell off U.S. Treasurys as a part of measures to punish Washington
for its recent approval of new arms sales to Taiwan, according to a report
Wednesday.

A U.S. sovereign-bond sale was part of broad retaliation measures under study by
military personnel at the National Defense University and Academy of Military
Sciences, according to a Reuters report citing interviews with the officers that
appeared in the state-run Outlook Weekly

Q: is MMR a good spec trade on oil

A: One of the best of breed oil service sector stocks would have been a better bet during
this most recent market correction.

MMR does have strong strength in ownership; however, the stock price run up has already
been 158% in the last 12 months yet has had a stock price decrease of 24% in the past 3
months.

Serious consideration to buy MMR must include being honest with a current PE that is
negative and more than one analyst has significantly decreased quarterly earnings
estimates . . . which leads to uncertainty, lack of consistancy, predictability or
stability of what you are really buying.

The risk does outweigh the reward. . . meaning it would be as you are phrasing your
question, a speculative play. . . so how much are you willing to lose vs how much are you
hoping/anticipating to gain?

Further, should you go with MMR, might want to look at the charts for entry point for
partial position, followed by adding partial position(s) with the consideration of placing
and using mental stops to protect
investment entry points . . . Then consider how much are you anticipating to gain on the
upside in anticipation to taking a partial or total profit. . . Thought being, keep a keen
eye on MMR if you put it into play and have your finger on the trigger to sell in case the
price goes south (below support) or hits the exit number (for profit).

In short, I have no personal position as to why there would be any reason to dive into MMR
whole hog with the belief it will be easy money. . . and that is likely the real hard
information or supporting documentation you are hoping to secure to feel confident in
making a more than certain profit with the probability of low risk. more

Q: my question to the chartist is....does CAT look like a good short right here
(using just the 14 14 ADX for 1 day thru ytd)even with pickrs alert of an

pts lower than where CAT is currently trading.

like over head resistence ,and 51 is lower end support.i think it really all depends on
what the dollar does as that will effect commotites witch will effect commodite stocks and
then cat.a pullback to 52 looks good to me ,stock is in a down trend .it looks like today
was over buying and short covering more
