Yea,I lost 1386 bucks in net worth between 9 and 5 today.And lost alot last week!
The stock is going coplueee.I tried to tell my dad about 3 months ago when he found a 08 Police Harley davidson for sale,to buy it and ride instead of sitting on stock.Now that the stock has went down in the past week,he has lost allmost twice what the harley woulda cost him.
So yea,I support buying spark plugs,or whatever suits ye fancy right now.

I had the chance at one time to buy Ford stock when it was 1.75 per share, and didn't.

Just "hang in there" Mack; if you don't sell anything, you haven't lost anything!

William I did the same thing with Ford at $1.08 I wanted to buy 30,000 shares and got scared. I have the current Ford stock price on my computer desktop to remind me of it everyday.

I just love what my broker has to say...

"Finally, we would point investors to the most important point, which is our deeply-held conviction that trying to call economic ups and downs -- and trying to time one's equity ownership of promising companies to those economic forecasts -- is a loser's game, and a very dangerous one at that. We recommend that investors commit their financial market capital to well-run, growing businesses, and hold those investments through economic cycles. This ties their potential success to the quality of the business, rather than to their ability to make correct economic predictions (predictions that even professional economists botch quite frequently)." Bla Bla Bla.

I mentioned Gold when it was hovering at $800. and he said about he same thing!

Great, just Great!

Groucho Marx once said he lost 12 million dollars in the stock market crash. He would have lost more but that's all he had.

Mack Cole,
The antique Harley may be worth a great deal in the value guides but the problem I've found is that nobody else seems to have the money to buy them if you want to sell for a profit. I restore antique British motorcycles as a hobby (rare ones)but nobody seems to have the cash to buy them these days. I just hang on to em and wait rather than sell em cheap but it seems waiting out this storm is going to be longer than everyone thought. Jimmy

Just wait for the second four years. You might be trading that Gold for Oatmeal to survive.

The bodies and collars of those Ward's plugs look like Champion X. It wouldn't surprise me to find that Champion made plugs for Monkey Ward.

Haven't you all heard that the recession is over? I think it ended when the depression started. This current re-de-pression ain't bothering me none. Heck, I went broke during the boom.

Btw, William, nice looking set of sparklers. Happy T'ing. Bob

They are three piece, take apart style just like the Champion X's.
