If you watch Jim Cramer too much, you will get burn from his words. He is an idiot that tell people what to buy and what to sell. He will say something positive about oil today, and something negative about the oil next day.

All I know he is making a hell load of money!

I wouldnt call that an idiot.. I call that brilliant..

"making a hell load of money"

simply briliant.

Also, is anyone looking into the hardware stuff?

ATI vs nVidia
Intel vs AMD
smaller aftermarket stuff (zalman, alienware, etc)

CredentialDirect owned by Vancity Credit Union is pretty cheap for penny stocks. It's also got Level II quotes too but you only get 1000 of them/month. That alone is worth an extra $10-20 free. Level II is that you are able to see the top 5 bid prices people are willing to pay to buy the stock and top 5 ask prices the people are willing to sell the stock

fuck no man don't buy right now what the hell are you thinking!! lol...do some dd before you throw your money around...i sent you a detailed pm if you need any more help just let me know

btw for the rest fmly went from having authorized shares of 200 mill to 2 billion...although the o/s is still 200 mill they maxed it out as soon as the volume started coming in...i think this company tanks even more. i know a lot of people in it and they are hoping it obunces to get out...huge resistance will be there between .013 to .016 which will take a miracle to get there! lol

you want a company to check on...look at CLBE i got every last cent of my stock market money in it (whatever I had left on fmly and the rest) average = .071

oh btw there will be a PR releasing some big big news SHORTLY!! so load up while you can

I see most of you that invest in OTC oR Nasdaq, DowJones. What about TSX-TSX-V

Man... If anyone of you put down $10,000
@ $0.55 on ARU Jan/03/06. It would be about $370,000 today.
ARU is a gold mining company in Ecuador and they got rich because they found high grades of gold over hundreds of metres from many holes they drilled.

Gold and Oil & Gas is also an option but it's so damn risky too heheh.

theres so many like that man...i try to stick with OTCBB stocks...pinks are too risky for me...don't have enough $$ in the market be buyign up things in the 20-30 dollar range and for some reason never paid any attention to the tsx, tsx-v, although with stats like that thats pretty impressive

check out USXP last year ran up something like 80x so 10,000 would be 800,000

funny thing is I had a small amount of money in usxp but sold out a few weeks before it started making its move up

Nope. I didn't get in on ARU. I thought the 1st drill result was a fluke.. damn the drill results even got better.

The stock that I made some decent money was GLY. They were drilling for oil in Australia and it was 0.09 after the 1st hole was dry. Sold it at the hype for $0.17 cents right before they announce the 2nd hole was also dry. Cause I already 2x my money I didn't want to risk anymore. Thx god. Now it's a piece of shit.

so? Having good earning doesn't do anything in this world. Big company like Tim Horton, people DO expect their profit will increase! If Timmy's profit up 50%+, then the stock will up! Because it suprise all the inverstors!

EXXON reported $10 Billion profit, their stock is down today!!! Because people like me, do expect oil company earns more and more money. No suprise for me at all!

An even cheaper brokerage is Tradefreedom.com starting September 2006 it's $9.95 per trade for US Equities and Canadian Equities priced $0-3
>$3.00 - up to 1000 shares,1 cents/share after

You can trade forex(foreign currency exchange). I don't think TD, BMO, CIBC, CredentialDirect, RBC allow forex.

The cheapest brokerage in Canada is interactivebrokers but you gotta be 21 to open margin account.
PS. Always open a margin account. You may not want to borrow $$ from the brokerage firm but it cancels the 3 day wait period when you buy/sell a stock.

Does anybody know anything about buying stocks from foreign markets, or ADR's? I've done some reading on it, but still dunno if there are any Canadian companies that deal with this. The only thing i've come up with is adr.com

MLXO IS ABOUT TO GET WINGS AND SOAR IT
HAS BEEN NAKED SHORTED JUST GOT POSTED ON THE REG-SHO LIST. SOME HUGE NEWS IS
COMING, LAST PR SHOWS COMPANY IS BACK IN FULL PRODUCTION WITH 3RD
SHIFT MANUFACTURING LINES STARTED JULY 24TH.
LATEST PR;

http://biz.yahoo.com/pz/060726/102766.html

2 YEAR CHART MLXO WAS AT A HIGH OF $1.58 A SHARE IN OCT. 2004
BEFORE THEY LAID EVERYONE OFF IN JAN.-FEB. 2005, THEY AVOIDED
BANKRUPTCY AND ARE NOW BACK TO FULL PRODUCTION.

Unfortunately the 8 mil shares that are short are not showing up on
the OTCBB.com list because the shares were being held as collateral
for a loan to the company and were only supposed to become free
trading shares if the company defaulted on the loan, the company HAS
NOT, NOT, NOT DEFAULTED ON THE LOAN!!! This Funding company had no
right to sell these shares into the open Market and now has to buy
them back out of the Market, so you can consider the shares "Short",
but they won't show up on the OTCBB list, since they were never part
of the float to begin with, these guys that sold them are going to
get screwed because they sold them in the .025-.05 range and I doubt
this stock will ever be down there again, they are back in Operation
Making Revenue again and avoided Bankruptcy, this Stock should begin
climbing back to it's Fair Market Value, my opinion .30-.40 at Least.

CHX - Cash Minerals is a stock t watch on TSX-V.
Uranium SPot price now $47.25 up from $45 last week
Ontario needs nuclear power plants for the demand in electric power. George Bush and President Putin talk about Uranium deal.
US bought many cheap nuclear power via nuclear warheads over the past decade.
Currently drilling and waiting drill results in Yukon. The company expects to have a resource of 10-80 million lbs U3O8.
They have projects to mine coal in Yukon, current Uranium projects in Yukon, convert coal to a cleaner diesel via Fishcer-Tropsch conversion in China. As you all know, China's economy is booming and they are going hitech and industrial unlike the traditional agricultural roots.

Current Price is $1.58 nearly tripled from $0.56 a month ago.
