Mike Tyson Punch-Out (or, My latest positions)

Good morning and welcome back to the body shop, where you can fix up the scratches and dings, but you can’t build a car from scratch for a profit. We’re now 100 points from the recent highs in the Nasdaq and the markets are starting to look like

Revolution Investing links: Economists revolt, G-20 cluelessness, how the best tech trader I know is trading Groupon and more

Here’s what I was thinking and writing about when I wasn’t jumping for joy that my Gmail “Database error 500” issue that kept me from accessing my Gmail emails all day yesterday was resolved overnight magically. Was worried I’d lost all those emails, you know? Whew. To

Opening statement

The markets are down about a percentage point across the board here in the early going, but our hedges along with the Sandisk calls are kicking in and keeping the portfolios mostly in the green. For now at least. I wouldn’t be shocked to see this market do some

Another small trade

Another small trade. LPS is up about 7% today on no real news. The stock is finally giving us a bounce and I’ve been saying for a long time that I’d like to add to my puts on any LPS bounce. I’m doing so again today, bidding

Today’s trading outlook

Greece is gonna go with the EU fix (that isn’t a fix at all) after all. Or at least that’s what the media is telling us this morning. What a waste. As for trading, well, we’ve got some 20-50% gains over night in our FIO call positions,

It’s not a death race, so catch your breath

Good morning and welcome back to the race track, where most of the traders forget to take a pit stop. Greece is broke, Greece is saved, Greece is broke, Greece is saved, Greece is…and other than freaking out investor sentiment near-term, is anybody sure that the EU is good,

A playbook for the trading/investing/economic ramifications that are coming from Occupy Wall Street

What’s the next catalyst for the markets? Is it more Greece, Italy, Euro crisis? Probably. Like I wrote last week when the markets were in celebratory mode, we’re going to be in endless crisis until we stop these games of new huge wealth transfers from the taxpayers around
