German Couple Finds Out Stork Isn't Real -- Fox News
A childless German couple finally found out why they weren't able to conceive - they had never had sex. After eight years of marriage, the 36-year-old man and his 30-year-old wife went to the campus' fertility clinic to figure out what was wrong. Doctors gave them a battery of tests and were baffled - both husband and wife were healthily fertile. Then came the important question. "When we asked them how often they had had sex," said a clinic spokesman, "they looked blank, and said: 'What do you mean?" He went on to explain that each of the pair had been brought up extremely religiously and had never heard of the birds and the bees. "We are not talking retarded people here," the clinic spokesman said. The two "were simply unaware, after eight years of marriage, of the physical requirements necessary to procreate."

Rev Shark:
Yesterday's rally was fine for the bulls, who already believe in this market, but for the skeptics who make decisions based on hard evidence, the action was lacking. The primary problem was that volume was woefully lacking. Nasdaq volume was at the lowest level of the year.
Low-volume bounces may help produce a bottom but lasting trend changes are a function of a series of higher highs and higher lows on increasing volume. The proof that something meaningful is occurring is action that reflects increased confidence and conviction by the big institutions that are the main driving force in the market. When the big boys start to put their money to work we will see clear evidence as volume swells and momentum grows.
Many Wall Street pros and market pundits will tell you that in order to profit from a rally, you have to be fully invested before it starts. I disagree. Meaningful trend reversals last for weeks and offer many chances to put your capital to work. When stocks start forming bases and moving up on volume it will be time to be bullish once again.
Hard evidence and solid proof usually don't emerge until a bit after the fact but that doesn't mean that it comes too late to act on. Faith and belief are easier to maintain than a style that requires hard evidence, but they also are fraught with danger.
We have a good start this morning. China announced that it is delaying interest rate cuts, economic growth in Japan turned out higher than expected and we had some solid reports from big-cap technology stocks in the U.S. The dollar is trading down sharply, gold is up and oil down.
What the bulls need to do now is show us the money. They need to produce some volume. We need to see confidence and conviction reflected in buying. We have been hearing lots of talk about why we should be bullish but we need some action to back that up.
The early strength is setting up a very good test of this market. We will quickly see how anxious the folks on the sidelines are to put their money to work. Yesterday the market gapped up nicely but then did nothing the rest of the day as volume waned and interest faded. What the bulls really need is a move that causes the folks who are hesitant to start to worry about whether they are missing the rally.
If the strength this morning is real I suspect we will see some interesting setups in individual stocks. Volume is the key right now and I'll be watching my scans carefully for stocks with volume surges.

Vaadake, mis AWGI on just teinud!
-
No mida siis?
-
$14 tase sai murtud...
-
jälgige DDDC-d, tegemist VOIP-i firmaga, millel hea võimalus kiireks põrkeks
-
LHV Pro uue sektsiooni alla läks ka just üks VoIP teemaline aktsia, mille hinna kahekordistumist (!) ootavad analüütikud järgnevate nädalate jooksul. Saab näha..

Mis puutub Alderwoodsi (AWGI), siis ilmselt on seotud tõus investorite sooviga positsioneerida ennast kaitsvatesse sektoritesse (deatchcare seda kindlasti on, eks?). Samas, Service Corp (SRV) pole kaasa rallinud.
sB -
mis selle LHV Pro VOIP firma nimi on, ei leidnud seda sektsiooni ülesse, millest jutt pidi olema
-
Solo, see on viimases osas Analüüside all (VRSO).

Tundub, et paljud ei ole seda uut sektsiooni märganud. Asub see nimelt päris all, kolmandas konteineris, mille nimeks "Kolumnid ja Analüüsid"
Verso Tech (VRSO) selle firma nimi. Soovitan ostmisega veidi viivitada, kuna esimese tuhina möödudes tulevad need asjad päeva lõpupoole alla. Tavaliselt vähemalt on nii olnud.

Oliver ütles ka, et üritab iga päev midagi huvitavat üles panna, seega tasub enne börsipäeva seda rubriiki vaadata. Ma olen ise ka sealt päris huvitavaid ideid saanud.

krt, ma olen suhteliselt algaja investor, aga seda olen jõudnud juba märgata, et kui virtuaalportfell tõuseb 3% siis tegelik portfell alla 1%. Nagu needus...

penny kauplejad võiks VOIP firmadest pilgu heita GLBT-le

kas mingi põhjus on kah, peale selle, et see on ERITI penny? ;)

seikatsu, ikka see ka, et RÄMEDA tõusu on läbi teinud ;) 50% lausa! ;)

ja veel lisaks SUURE käibega ka .. käive dollarites ulatub juba miski üle 5000 dollari!

Kõik näevad seda QQQ kukkumist? Kuuldavasti Morgan Stanley kogemata vajutas valet nuppu futuuride masinal ja stopid läks käiku stoppide järgi...temporary move they say...

THC Tenet Healthcare started with a Buy at Oppenheimer (11.63 )
Oppenheimer initiates coverage of THC with a Buy rating and $17 target; firm says the stock may be volatile until the govt's review of outlier payments is completed, yet notes that liquidity and cash flow are adequate, the outlier payments issue is manageable, and fundamentals are solid. -
-Eilne päevalõpu müügilaine tõestas, et turu suund ülespoole ei ole kindel ning ka täna jätkub kogu nädal kestnud passimine. Nasdaqi futuurid on 3 punkti plussis, S&P 500 1,2 punkti plussis.
-Töötu abiraha taotluste arv kerkis eelmisel nädalal oodatust rohkem 12 000 taotluse võrra 345 000-ni. 10-aastase võlakirja intressimäär kukkus uudise peale 0,045 protsendipunkti ehk 4,75 protsendile. Samas on nelja nädala keskmine näitaja 333 500 abirahataotlust madalaim alates 2000. aasta novembrist.
-Tähelepanelikult jälgitakse ka nafta hinna liikumist, hetkel see 20 senti päeva tipust madalamal ehk 41,4 dollarit barreli eest.
Rev Shark:
This market has certainly been offering us the chance to strengthen our character and moral fiber. Yesterday a promising start with good news and increased volume turned into a major disappointment by the time the market closed.
The pundits blamed rising oil prices for the reversal, but it also looked like many sellers were considering technical levels as well. The 200-day moving average remains key overhead resistance for the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Nasdaq and a very important support level for the S&P 500. Once intraday support levels cracked in the afternoon, the selling picked up very quickly. The bulls lost their conviction and refused to buy, once things started pulling back.
This market badly needs some positive days on increased volume. Until we see that occur, we have to remain extremely cautious. The action yesterday clearly demonstrated how shaky the mood is out there. The buyers wanted nothing to do with trying to buy weakness once the market rolled over. They ran for the hills once the intraday uptrend failed. However, it isn't all bad. As Mr. Buckham points out in the quote above: disappointment, problems and hindrances ultimately serve to strength us.
As the market frustrates investors and traders and induces them to sell their holdings, we set the stage for a turn with lasting power. It is only after we have shaken out the weakest and the uncertain that the market can find an equilibrium point and start to move steadily higher. The action yesterday was particularly disappointing, but it is that sort of disappointment that brings us close to an important turning point.
In the early going, the indices are showing few signs of life. Overseas markets were generally weak in sympathy with the reversal in the U.S. market yesterday afternoon. Oil is inching up again, gold is down and the dollar mixed. We have the weekly unemployment report at 8:30 a.m. EDT, leading indicators at 10:00 a.m. EDT and the Philly Fed at noon. Other than that, the news flow is fairly quiet.
After the reversal yesterday, expect buyers to be very tentative. The level of trust is low and it is going to take some pretty solid positive action to entice the bulls back into this pain-in-the-rear market.
