OK, then.  Gotta invest, today, in either BAC, F or UNG.  All in one.  Which one and why.

[SultanofSwine]

Lookin foward to the reply.

John is there a rationale for those 3 choices? Would be curious as too that as well.

[john c]

Lookin forward to the reply.

John is there a rationale for those 3 choices? Would be curious as too that as well.

In my personal stock investing schemes there is absolutely nothing rational.  I bailed out of the market several years ago when I thought P/Es were getting out of control.  When the collapse began I started looking at possibilities and along with a few others we developed our 5-5-5-500 plan - (5 guys buying 5 stocks that within 5 years will go up 500%).  (Also had a 3-3-300 plan).  The 5 were BAC, C, F, UNG, TCK.

We all bought in at pretty much the same time.  Sell and/or additional buy-ins are varying.  Everyone bailed out of C shortly after the initial buy-ins.

I actually had asked why C wasnt in the line up and then deleted that part out of my reply

why the Nat Gas etf for a 5 year window?

Cause that's the way he rolls, Sultan.  If you want some REAL advice call me!!

[SultanofSwine]

Dont worry, I'm still buyin ammo

[BlackKnightHogFan]

Dont worry, I'm still buyin ammo

Just ammo, no seeds, MRE's, or 20,000 gallon tanks of water.  How about a cave near Fifty-Six?

[SultanofSwine]

With enough ammo I can "aquire" those other items

How's thing up your way? Clients frowning less these days?

Better, never was too bad, I guess I was lucky or good, okay lucky.  I am in a much better mood these days.  Thus, my poking fun at you.  Maybe Spare could help us with that cave.  Oh and is Mass rubbing elbows with the UHNW folks again?  I have been away some and haven't seen him post lately.

Hows life with you?

We got out with good profit and nobody wanted back in.  Replacement is in the air.

My picks in the 5 were BAC, C and F.  My brother-in-law picked UNG and TCK.  His reasons are too technical for me to understand.  I'll ask him tomorrow and post.

[SpareRib]

Cave?  Yup.  All I need is the ammo and MRE's.  Got my own "water tank" at Roundhouse. 


After lookin' at Mass's latest graph, I'm moving in this week. 

(I need a tomato plant.  Anybody got a spare tomato plant?)

Thought Mass had already gone to the cave but I see he came out for a peek. Things are good here, plenty busy and thankful for it.

[aristotle]

I'm long C, F, and GE all day. Waiting for a pull back to buy more in fact.

[McKdaddy]

Things are good here, plenty busy and thankful for it.

Amen.

Economic downturns and the accompanying layoffs are a dual-edged sword in the financial advisory business . . . you hate to see people get laid off from a decent paying job; however, you appreciate receiving their lump-sum pensions + 401k's.

I knew I could count on you for the cave part.  I've got some left over MREs from the early 1990s, will those work?

[BlackKnightHogFan]

Great and same for me, things are starting to break a little.

[BlackKnightHogFan]

Amen.

Ditto.

[SpareRib]

I ain't skeered of no 15 year old MRE's.  I served in the early 60's and we were still eating C-Rats and K-Rats left over from the WWII.  The ham and beans tasted just like the spaghetti and meat balls, and the cigarettes went up like a dynamite fuse.

Nope, I ain't skeered.

On another note, I keep seeing what I believe to be symptoms of an approaching top, e.g. -  The junk stocks are leaving the launch pad.  Keeping my powder dry, but for a few very short term trades.

Glad business is good for you guys.  But - if it turns south, I still need a couple of guys to cut firewood.

Hold one of those wood cutting positions for me.  I'm feeling better but I'm not feeling "safe" yet.  Know what I mean, Vern?

why the Nat Gas etf for a 5 year window?

B-I-Law said his basis is belief that the crude to Nat gas historical of around 6:1 will return during the next 5 years due to some of the possible events happening.  Current ratio is around 17:1.  So despite increasing volumes of gas supply there is real uncertainty about crude prices.  He expects circumstances to occur that will favorably affect ratio in NG's favor ( at current UNG prices).  Cap & Trade will favor the ratio dropping by increasing demand for NG.  Why UNG? Simple way to trade - no contracts.

[john c]

So do you want to share your target price?

[SpareRib]

OK, then.  Gotta invest, today, in either BAC, F or UNG.  All in one.  Which one and why.

John - Did you get an answer for this one?

[McKdaddy]

Where did our friend's advertisement go?

[Masshog]

Just taking a bit of a breather guys.  Ill be back strong when I come to... I mean, when I wake up.

When you are gone for a few days, I get this image of you with glasses holed up in a little office buried in the depths of a building in MA with stacks and stacks of charts graphs and numbers...am I close?

Either that or fishing...right?

I think the stripers are running.

[hawgbawb]

Dont worry, I'm still buyin ammo

Are you waiting for the supply to catch up with demand?  Buy high/ sell low?

[Masshog]

Headed for the Cape in just a few hours.  Here fishy fishy.... here fishy fishy...   

[SultanofSwine]

No selling, purely buy and hold or use as needed. Ammo supplies are in good enough shape now tha I can feed my family for a lllllooooonnnnnngggggggg time now if need be.

I'll trade some fish for some of your deer meat good buddy.

[SultanofSwine]

You mean you are going to actually keep some fish???

[Road_Hog]

I will if need be.  We've kept bass before.  I grew up in the "catch and release era" and was in a bass club at 14. 

What I will not do is keep anything over 2 pounds or any smallmouth of any size.  The best way to do it is go to a lake that is crowded with Spotted bass and keep some in November or December.  The fish taste great in that cold water and you aren't messing with the spawn.

The direction of this thread proves the point that all good conversation, regardless of where it starts, will end up about fishing, hunting and guns.  Now, which beer do you drink? 

[BlackKnightHogFan]

Got one picked out...off Cartwright rd. just up from Gunners Pool.

You renting out rooms?  Might want a quote on rent soon!
