I love it! I bought more GOZ! And guess what? NEWS!

50% more reserves than earlier reported! They are already making money in probably the safest country (Sweden!).

Now with the gold/silver pullback, the 'chaff' will get thrown away as usual, and the producers will keep on marching. It happened the last time, and it will happen again.

Any good news recently to increase its value? I'm still holding onto a small position of HNU, and I told myself I'd sell it once I'm around +15% cause it always seems to go down drastically soon after (like day after) but now I'm nearing +20% and don't wanna let it go just yet I still haven't learned my lesson lol

[fluid]

i alrdy jumped out of ng, got scared cause of how it dropped before and took profits..... i hope this wasent the full breakout lol

I'm of the same mentality. But right now, I feel it's at the decision point... die off again or look to push new highs. But NG just isn't strong in spring/summer. So how could it sit at $7 in HNU this spring/summer and all winter we were sitting in the $5.8 range?!?

If today plays out right, its 7 weeks in a row US gas rigs have decreased. If the trend keeps continuing, than the gap between supply and demand will close and price of NG will increase as overall NG demand will continue to increase year over year.

Congrats on your first bagger!

Don't beat yourself up for selling, it's nice to lock a gain.

I would beat yourself up for selling it all. The reason is capital gains. It reallly sucks to give money to the government. Hopefully you have some losses to cover?

Next time, only sell enough to get your capital back and keep your free shares to offset other loses.

[max_boost]

Yes. I should have just sold some and let it ride but you know how it is, emotions. LOL :eek:

[gyu]

Wasn't able to get to a computer on time to sell it, looks like I'll have to see what Monday has to offer *fingers crossed*

[fluid]

some momentum has to dip and ill see how big it is, i didnt sell them all, but i pretty big portion! oh well

[93VR6]

Looks like a nice open today, gald I got back into cmk on friday.

[gyu]

Not too big of a drop for HNU this morning, but I feel this is just the beginning of consecutive red days to come lol

[skandalouz_08]

Right now all the stocks I'm watching are in the green today. Hope its not red days to come this week!

F'n HNU, such a bad start this morning. :whipped:

[911fever]

what do you guys think of Citi (C)? It's a $4.80 stock right now and I think it has potential to be a 7-12 dollar stock, especially since it just awarded its CEO a new 1.75 mill salary and has $40US Billion in funds set aside for future losses

For it to hit $7 that means the market has to catch a bull run. Do you think the market is going up?

There is no way that Citi can buck the trend and go against the market.

Having said that, IF you believe the market will go up, there is better stocks that will make more gains at the same time. The issue with stocks is not just 'making money', but it's also trying to get the one that will outperform the market.

I was also interested in Citigroup, until I heard about how diluted their shares are from the bailout.

[el_fefes]

You guys should take a look at CAN.V (Canaco Resources). It ended the year at $6 now down to $4.40. I thnk it's a great buying opportunity. I got in at $2.19 and I'm pissed I didn't sell at $6....

[dawerks]

Perfect, another no earnings, highly diluted, no cash stock, but they found gold!

And one of these decades, they'll pull it out of the ground. Only up 600% in one year of course...

:rofl:

what up with oil? the supply was huge compared to forecast, but price is moving up....

Gorgeous day at the market!!

200+ points. Everything green (except the banks, but that's ok), some with 7%+ gains. Whee!

hell fkn yeah.....i was maxed out to the tits.
fk sold off half of some of my positions...haha
no telling where where we go rest of teh week.

[dawerks]

Well, we climbed the 'wall of worry' thanks in part to a gold price resurgence. Then we had some beautiful short covering (thank you shorty!) and tomorrow we will have profit taking.

That's good you jumped the curve and took profit!

[SilverRex]

silver may have found a bottom at 26.70 and ready to make another run towards 31 or slightly higher. while 22-23 would be my ideal entry point, a good play with tight stops under 26.50 would be a good play for a potential 25-30% rise on hzu.to

haha been watching HZU for past couple of days.... was going to buy yesterday at 18.30ish but chickened out then it went off in the afternoon.

today i'm gonna take a small position. Order just filled at $18.41.

[dawerks]

Late to the party, but I had CRUS on my watch list.

It popped, but I still think there is more left. I hate to be so late, but the profit margin and it's link to APPL is too strong to ignore.

If you missed the APPL train, don't miss this one. Do your own DD but CRUS is still undervalued!

And I love new 52 Week highs!

^I'm gonna sell at next peak, do you plan on keeping it awhile?

alirght out of HND for a 0.70 gain.

HZU $19.14 x 19.16.... whoop there it is. Might unload here ... fk i'm so decisive.

oh ya...getting killed on my other plays ...haha.

[Red@8]

Had an order for $18.25 on HZU this morning - never filled :banghead:

P.s. You guys ever think about creating a chat-room? :dunno:

Just goes to show that the it doesn't matter what stock you own, it will always be MARKET first, then SECTOR then ... way down stock.

The Market is upset about Egypt. Down.
Some sectors are inverses to bad news (Oil) and so most stocks were down today.

Good job to anyone who made money on non-oil, non-energy plays today!

I'm holding.

It's a gamble, I'm just holding.

0 comments | Like itDon't like it Matthew Zylstra, an analyst at Northern Securities, reportedly wrote that Alpha Natural Resources Inc.'s US$7.1-billion takeover of Massey Energy Co. should boost shares of other Canadian coal mining companies, particularly producers or near-term producers of metallurgical coal.

According to a Financial Post report, he expects Grande Cache Coal Corp. (GCE.TO) and Cline Mining Corp. (CMK.TO) will attract the most attention. Of the two, his preference is Cline, the report says.

"Cline trades at a lower valuation based on coal resources than current producers, while operating in favourable mining jurisdictions," he reportedly wrote in a note.

He reportedly added that Cline's costs at its New Elk mine in Colorado are estimated at around US$100 a tonne, while Grande Cache's guidance is for costs of about US$125 to US$130 a tonne.

Oil veteran Pickens sees $120 this year

Pickens has frequently said the U.S. government lacks a long-term energy strategy, despite being the world's largest oil consumer, and cautioned oil prices could triple in the next 10 years without one.

"Where else in the world doesn't have an energy plan," said Pickens, who has been in Washington over the past week in a bid to win support from the new Republican Congress for his energy plan to run more vehicles on natural gas.

He said he was confident of seeing a deal this year with the support of Republican House Majority Leader Eric Cantor.

"If we don't do something to reduce our reliance on imported oil, we could see $300 a barrel in the next decade."

max_boost are you still holding citigroup??

[SilverRex]

also becareful between now until end of feb. What ever you are trading, if its on the high side, I would take profit and wait for better entry. as the next few week suggest a short term cycle low, then we should have another rise until june 2011.

all eyes will be around june 2011 as mid year points to a significant reversal of trend.

continue to stick to food/energy/pm in that order, stagflation will be the magic word.

Oil slowing as effect of the protests on the Suez appears to be minimal - Might have to keep an eye on Yemen and possibly Nigeria.

Ouch for those in Opti. If it continues to sell-off I may buy into it hoping for Nexen or a Foreign purchaser.

That would be I. I could've taken profit of 30% anytime, but I'm a holder type. I'm still up a penny or two :)

I only have 40,000 shares so it's not brutal but really, not a fun thing to wake up to. It's happened before, it will happen again!

The only thing I have sour grapes about is that TD/CIBC were selling before the halt. More than a little suspicious and I will be contacting my lawyer and the exchange (after the halt of course).

[KappaSigma]

I am adding to my BKY positition everytime it hits 20 cents or under. A huge spec play, only land blah blah blah. But if they do any sort of drill program it runs hard on spec alone and I will sell.
