The entire universe of “Tiger Cub’s and Seeds” (offshoot funds of Julian Robertson) are sitting on huge long positions in the following high beta stocks:
GOOG, RIMM, QCOM, BIDU, AAPL
I doubt there is intentional coercion, but there is certainly dialogue. What are the short-term implications for fast money traders? These stocks will have support on significant […]
Financial stocks in the stock market presenting major buying opportunities but risk is high so trading sizes should be reduced significantly and long term positions built up over time. Exploit the volatility.
There’s absolutely no way to predict how the market is going to behave in the near term. This is where the “chaos” meter spikes off the charts. Pure random noise.

Now is the time for the former so get your buy orders ready, and let’s make some money.

“Ron Paul is far too intelligent to believe the main pillars of his campaign platform such as abolishing fiat currency , abolishing taxes and turning America further inward through psycho-graphic racism.”
Now before you get all emotional one way or the other, it was never my original intention to polarize the message I was trying […]
