Vulcans who trade for fun

PARL is showing a lot of strength. I expect it to break out and run after it breaks $35.... My long term larget is $51 on PARL. Plus they are a buyout target.

Keep an eye on this one.

Snow flakes the size of cottonballs falling here....

Lyehopper,

What got you into trading? And how do you divide your time with the cattle and the computer?

Snake
Actually Snake, I am a businessman.... I own a metals mfg company that I started in 1985 and I own a lot of commercial real estate. I also have my hands in several other "ventures" including a (light commercial) construction company and a natural stone (granite) fabrication/mfg company.

How do I manage my farm?.... I have a full time farmhand (foreman) and a couple of fellas that help me part time (I run about 250-275 brood cows and might have over 500 total animals at any given time) I have a small feed lot that I'm just developing that I will be able to feed out an additional 250 calves in (should start that up by spring 06).... In addition to my (owned) farmland acreage.... I lease about 1,000 additional acres.....

How do I manage my Co's?.... I have excellent managers that are highly compensated at my Corp..... That enables me to stay here at my farm spend time with my family and trade stocks.... I love my family.... stock trading is my passion. Plus I'm pretty good at it and I think managing my portfolio is as important as any job I could be doing at my company.

Waisting my time on this forum and mrmarketishuge CAN NOT be justified, but most vices can't...hehehehe ;)

Why $51? Is that before or after the buyout?
 
Re: Cowboys who trade for fun

Lye, did you know the biggest beef producer out here is American? Quintana I think his name is. I think he was a 'world' champion bull rider too. We built a saddle tree for his son, a wade I think. Must've got sick of cows calving in the snow :D.

Anyway, do you have a set trading plan or just go by feel? Whats your % returns like? Do you employ a money management strategy? Why is the sky blue? Are we there yet?:D

Thanks for the response, in time maybe you can provide some feedback on research services in the sates and we can do the same on some Australian ones (Fat Prophets, Huntley’s...etc)

In my opinion, the absolute best, American stock picking site is ran by a fellow by the name of Bruce Brotnov. www.poormans.com
Bruce used to be a civil service worker, before he made his fortune in the stock market. He is more of an investor than a trader, but I like his level headed approach to trading and the fact that he seems to find winners before anyone else notices them.

I hope it's OK that I posted his address. I'd hate to end up in an Austrailan prison somewhere for violating the terms of service. :bricks1:

Okays visitors, my apologies, glad to see you folk are here to have fun and enjoy the company but I have to be careful and nip things in the bud or it takes forever to sort it out, hope you understand, maybe I went too far.

One request if I may, could the stock stuff posts be made in the Vulcan's stock thread in the InternationalForum and the fun stuff stay in this thread? Or do you always mix business with pleasure? ;) It would be helpful if you could and I'd be grateful.


Post the stock stuff in the Vulcan thread and the fun stuff here? Dude, aren't we already in the Vulcan thread? I'm confused...

You should take a few shots of Barcardi 151 and chase it with a Smirnoff Ice. I do it all the time. It does a great job of relaxing me! :drink:

PARL is one of poorman's favorite stocks.
I like Bruce.... We emailed back and forth a few times last week. I've never subscribed to his site (but I'm now buying a year's subscription). I think it's funny he only takes a check. He said if I were an international customer I would have "other options" to pay him.hehe Layed back kinda dude!

PARL up 5% today!!!! http://www.7secondsoflove.com/winners/
 
I have an OTC stock that I'm researching and thought that you guys might have a little information on it. It's a drug company called Molecular Pharmacology. It's an Australian Drug company that has a new drug called Tripeptofen. According to what their saying, this drug, if approved, will be revolutionary and could take the place of aspirin, acetaminophen, ibuprofen, naproxen and coxibs.

I'm a little skeptical, but am still interested. Here's a link to the companies U.S.A. website.

Let me know if any of you guys have heard of it.

That was one funny clip! So now I am confused, I've been told off before when I've tried to keep threads tidy but I have not been charmed with humour before by zany Americans. We'll see how this goes, maybe the amber stuff explains your excitement (and confusion about two separate threads in two different forums). Make yourself at home, don't mind me-...... ok, just kidding fellas so don't stress over it... things are fine as they are for now...let's see how it goes. I'll consult my fellow moderators and have a pow wow if required, part of the reason these forums are popular is the tidy structure imho, I'd just like to keep it that way as, I'm not asking for much.

Webs,

It doesn't seem to be publicly listed on our market... not under that name anyway.
