A: Ryan, I jump the gun...I hear certain facts in another company and I go alright...I know
this is going to help or hurt another company...I jump in...alone...no one else sees it
that way, ouch, or it takes a long time for someone to notice (like when they report). To
fix it, working on it, but look...I am jumping up and down already jumping into ASCO plays
before the news even hits..so maybe I will have have to suffer more pain until I wait
patience. BTW great question. Nymph more

Q: Kabirm,
ACM finally hit 30 after hours, I'm guessing it popped on fluor earnings
announcement. Last quarter it had a run-up INTO fluor's earnings, then dropped
after announcement. I'm not sure of all of the details of fluor's conference
call last quarter (trying to find some relevance to ACM's reaction last
quarter). I'll be watching tomorrow.

A: Last quarter flr reported on Feb. 28th. On Feb. 27th there was a lot of negative press on
infrastructure stocks being hit by housing slump fallout. So, looks like ACM may have
run-up into FLR earnings and then was hit by negative market sentiment on infrastructure. more

Q: Required Minimum Distributions from your Traditional IRA:

I just read that instead of taking the mandatory cash, you can transfer stock
from your IRA into your taxable account.

Of course you will have to pay the tax, but this is great for the wealthy, or
those that don't immediately need the money or feel the stock isn't priced
right.

If you tranfer the losers into your taxable account, you can claim a tax loss if
they decline further. If they go up, you did better than just taking your yearly
distribution.

Ideally, if you use last years distribution for current year bills, you would
get an extra 12 months to pick your sale price.
It's a traditional IRA, so you would pay tax either way.

Cool !

Q: All I hear is that 2008 is the year for Natural Gas. Could somebody explain why
XTO and CHK are not exploding? Or am I putting high hopes on them? Thoughts?

A: well, isnt this a good thing that they arent exploding? shouldnt we want them to be
undervalued? is my first response

secondly, because they hedge out much of their commodity exposure, so they arent as
explosive as say, APA, or SWN, which are the go-go get em' stocks in the group.

plus, as jewald said, theyre up over 30% in 5 months, thats pretty damn good. more

Q: As you may know, India's Tata Motors will be distributing its Nano model for
about $2500 into a congested country where less than 10 people per 1000 own a
car. I believe that the car will explode in sales. I also believe that the
companies that figure out how to successfully create a supply chain for the gas
to get to the cars will have monumental success. What companies are willing and
able to make money in this supply chain?
