I’m not killin’ it but I think my timing was decent on HP and RIG, where I bought in within 5% of the low points in the valley. AAPL I’m watching it rise, afraid to buy more since it’s so damn high already. Like when it reached $300 I was like, holy crap and now it’s at $360. I’m holding in the meantime.

You know how it goes though, you don’t make anything unless you sell the stock.

I sold all the RIG when it hit $80 a couple days ago. Sure it’s up to $82 now, but a) I’m not a greedy SOB and b) who was I to know that, it may have slid to $75 for all I know!?

The other smaller penny stocks (JMBA, CELM) I am just holding to “see what happens” and if I get lucky if one of the companies does a lot better and investors flock in. Kind of a crap shoot but it’s these small ones that have a lot of room to move. Unfortunately it can be in the wrong direction too of course.
