I think they just nuked my IKN shares.  I know it was messing everything up, but I'm not sure I got refunded even what I put into it.

Hahahaha!  I'm really good at this!

Sell quick before it goes back up and invest in Sarah Palin endorsed engineering projects!

Dammit schild, I was shooting for bottom of the ladder.

For some reason I take a great deal of comfort from the fact that Broughden has stayed below $100k.

You are just upset that Im riding the lightning down almost as fast as Schild.

In all honesty though I might not be playing the game right. I bought three stocks I thought were very undervalued for the long term. Especially Humana and JP Morgan. But I might not see a return on that investment for a year or three.

I really thought we hit the bottom last week.  8200 was my floor.

New floor?  I'm thinking 6700.

Fucking 401k.  Poof.

Well in the politics forum I predicted 7500 so we are there already. Im not making new predictions cause we are getting into scary territory now.

I'm not sure how you ended up owing the market money, but that is impressive.

I look forward to that screenshot being trotted out every time Broughden says anything about economics in the Politics forum from now until the end of time.   why so serious?

I'm pretty sure Broughden has been in the "trust with a grain of salt (or less)" category since he arrived.
