Google is also good. You have to pull the stock up and on the bottom right it will have a calendar for the company events coming up.

so I guess C was sell the news, down 10% today. What news were traders expecting tho, a miracle? They still blew away expectations. On the bright side PIR up another 10% again today. 150% return on investment so far.

C already had it's jump starting on the 8th, 9th, 13th when Wells announced expectations. This drop is just the delta in the prediction.

I was one of those foolish traders. Smile Picked up $2k worth late yesterday, very happy when I checked at 6:30 and saw they had beat. Stock spiked up 15% pre-market...should have sold then. :roll:

Looks like it's recovering a bit now. I think long-term it will continue to rise.

Zeph wins back the lead, with Griz closing fast on Maul. Hoof has the biggest jump of the week. Everyone who sold (including me, Dustie, and especially Thudz) picked a BAD time to do so (you were right, Maul!)... How long can this rally last??

It's hard for me to fathom 42k gains since we started this thing. I'm trying very hard to not mentally spend it all.

Well the pullback seems to finally be happening. C and BAC down 17% today, GE down 8%. Question is...when to jump back in? Is this a one day profit-taking event, or are we in for a bigger pullback? I really want to get back into the financials...

Yea, good question. The real question is what will be the next good news? Could be a earnings report. Perhaps a good Jobs report.....

My gut feeling, is that we will continue to see a lot of volatility and we will bounce around 7800 to 8200 for a while until there is another sign of economy improvement.

I don't forsee a good job report for quite sometime. Maybe spring '10. Maybe we can print another trillion dollars and see how high the market goes up. Sounds fun!

Grieve, what share price did you use to calculate my sale on April 16th?

VFINX on:
April 15: 78.50
April 16: 79.72
April 17: 80.12

I had 1,874 VFINX so (146,155 / 1874) is 77.99. I don't see that number in the results for VFINX at all. The minimum number you could have used would be 78.50, the number I think you should have used is 79.72. Even accounting for he comission, this result is thousands off.

My value should be 149,395.28 or 149,385.28 (10 bucks off for comission). Right?

Well "good" is relative. Remember right now the mentality is that anything that is not god awful is good news. A flat job report or something that shows it not going south at the expected pace, would rally the market again.
