Other than Lenova ADR hammering my white fanny, yeah big percentage. I'm particularly peeved because the rat-arsh srock itself in HK was not down so much. There's a lesson here somewhere.....I'll watch HK this evening.
Investors....come in please!

Well, my $38,000 investment in the Vanguard
Mid-Cap Index Fund 22 days ago is now at $39,099.62. I'm quite pleased. If it gives me anywhere near the almost 10% return on investment(after any taxes on the return on investment and after all management charges) that it has produced on the average over the 8 years since the fund was first formed, I'll be more than happy with it. I just might dump a couple more thousand dollars in the account this fall, after I retire Oct. 30 and take stock of my finances, upcoming expenses, and etc.

This rally gives me the kreeps. Any smidgen of bad news in the next week or three and we're in the hopper. I took some cash out yesterday, and I should have sold Lenova on Friday.....idiot!
Way to go jmac - can you turn it? Or is it 60 days?
Anyway we will rally again before year end.

Looks like I'm going to give back some of yesterdays gains. Wonder what is going on with GLW?
It's an odd day today. GLW was down and RMBS was up this morning. Now it's just the opposite. Both traded heavily in the after hours market. Overall, I'm down a tic today, but who knows where it will end up. I'm at 50% cash right now. Just waiting for things to settle down some.
NASDAQ is just getting hammered. My MF's will be puke. Interest bearing funds holding up fine. This is the situation I was ready for, but can't be out of the MF's at all times.
I reckon I'll still be over my all time high after 1:00PM

News came out today that manufacturing was down and wages up, and the market tanked.
Me too Pablo. I've been selling into this rally; it just dosen't look right. If the averages don't surpass the May highs, we're showing a double top on the charts and heading for the abyss.....
1) You can't fight the market.
2) There is always a rally somewhere in something.

I need another hobby.....oh that's right this is serious. I am positioned OK. Still it hurts.
Bought another 100 shares of GLW @ 21.20 this morning. Hope it was a good move.
I would say so.
It will go to $30+ before you know it. Just hold on to mid-2007 when the Diesel stuff is in full swing.
I just bought 300 shares because I trust you guys like my daughter. Well, er, it may go up
.
GLW was heading for $25 until this week. I hope this southern detour is just temporary.
Market looking up this morning. GLW and RMBS got a nice little kick in overnight trading. APPL is hot this week. I was down to about even for the week. Showing some green today.
Good day. Yes GLW is up nicely.
Volumes are down today. Looks like traders are dumping energy and loading up on tech.. Strange week.
Buy and hold this bad boy:

It just pays it's buck a share every six months and then starts chugging uphill again. Glad I didn't buy at inception, but it sure has been holding it's own in this market.
I didn't check volumes today. Most all my funds threw cap gains today. A pain for taxable accounts, I always love the more shares in my IRA. To be honest this is how I kick butt with funds over the years.

BEP looks like a excellent buy and hold.
Interestingly enough some guy called Bob Brinker's moneytalk about BEP last week. The bummer is it was a fill in guy and didn't really answer the guy. I'm sure Bob would not have approved
Also, strangely the Semi-annual report came in the mail.
