I wish we weren’t limited to buying stocks that are at least $2.00 a share… I was all set to buy 400,000 shares of something!

Thought i would get the edge on you guys, and be finally in the plus.

After 20 minutes of what he was watching his show.  I was like

Heh, I did the same thing yesterday....

I opened up Wordpad, typed in every company he mentioned, and put a "y" or an "n" beside each one, based on what he said.

I ended up with a list of about 15-20 companies.... with only about 7 "y's."

I checked 'em all out, and still wasn't comfortable about betting on them. I think only one, maybe two of those companies ended up making any money today.

I can't wait to join the game... but jesious... it's crazy right now. The trend in our game is basically; if you're at the top you're only up 2-3 points, and if you're at the bottom, you're down 10. Everyone else is spread across that field, with most in the red.

At least I know more about the terms "correction," "bottom," and "adjustment" than I did before.
