Been buying since Feb. this year. Good chunk of my retirement accounts spread among those 3. Those are long termers. Confident they will appreciate long-term at a better clip than the overall market. Also have extra exposure to biotech and genomics thru PBE. I like the powershares ETF's as a way to invest over mutual funds.

I completely agree about MFs versus ETFs, without a doubt they are superior..lower cost structure and easier to get in and out intra-day, no loads etc.
If you can FIND an ETF in a group you like, they are tough to beat..

Yeah, and they are rolling out new ETF's for sub-sectors and sub-sub-sectors all the time. I think that's the future. Mutual funds will become a dinosaur. Volume can be low sometimes but I suppose should increase as they become more popular.

POZN looks good today, nice steady volume, nothing too crazy..but lets see if they can keep it up.
WFR not running away, but up decently too.
I keep toying with gambling on some FSLR 90s and yesterday and today they were going under 3 bucks, now much higher of course.
Part
of me wants to gamble on some either 95s or 100s..July expiry isnt for
a full 3 weeks, by then FSLR might be to 110..sounds totally stupid but
it is possible..
D2 it is at 2 EST and yeah it is always crazy..but the way this action is going today I think they want to run the market up again..

W.s listen man the Solar companies are running in direct correlation with the oil prices as u see oil is topping 70 dollars a barrel and solars are all up. the thing that will drop the solar companies is lowered gas prices so understand this ws and u will be a millionaire very soon. So when u see oil prices drop put in your short on the solar companies.

wsc, i saw you were interested in www.trending123.com. what makes that site different than all the other ones that you have come across? what do you know about www.swingtrades.com ?

Yeah I have heard of swingtrades too..what gets me about trending123 is I get their blurbs via email and have for a long time. They are very high on technical trading and have a ton of tools for great technical work, even more than I use or know about..plus they have a chat room and they toss out ideas etc. For the intro price, I think it is 150 for 4 months..it might be worth a stab and see how it looks..plus they have a guarantee.
I am unable to devote full time trader status plus even if I did I dont know all the sectors out there and in the past that has been the worst part of trading for me, the market is so expansive and I dont see everything..so if I could pay for someone else to point out technical strength or weakness in an area I might overlook, plus if I might learn a few tips along the way, well it might be worth a few bones to give it a shot.
What is your view?
Big$$$, FSLR up another 2 clams today..I have been in awe for 15 pts on the stock and I dont get it..maybe me capitulating and gambling might indicate a top, I am good at doing that..lol
The MMs and speculation crowd want FSLR higher..same thing mystifies me about a stock like BIDU..but damn if I am fighting it..I dont have deep enough pockets to fight these guys.

If you're looking for a gamble flyer, check out LCOM (local.com). Recently approved for a patent on local searching. Should lead to licensing partnerships and revenue growth. This is a microcap around $4 and 37 mil market cap. Probably will either be $0 or $20 in a year.
Up 33% today and rising....

WS....very large short interest too that could take awhile to unravel. Lots of volatility. But I still think the shares are worth either a lot more or a lot less than the current price. If the patent is as solid and broad as it appears then the big boys of search will either have to pony up royalties or buy the company out. If they could actually buy the co. at the current 55M mil valuation (actually 45M with 10M cash on hand) they would jump at the chance. That tells you the shares still well undervalued. Stock IPO'd at $7 in 2004 and ran up quickly to $30. May well do the same over the next few months. Bears watching.

WS....post on "SeekingAlpha"....kinda wacky that a post by some shareholder could move the market so much. Can either see it as a pump and dump or market just slow to react to important news as the stock is not well followed. Post here
