Performance review 2 NWACQ is the winner of 2006 absolutely! When I introduced it on 4/19, its closing price was $0.58. On 12/13, its price reached $6.55 that made its BRR to 1029.3%. The result is unbelievable good! Apparently, at the time I was introducing it, NWACQ was undervalued. This stock reminded me about the similar story of K-mart which was happened not long ago. My estimation was

Performence review 1 After I suggested on 4/9/06, ACH has gone up a little, but then felled about 40%. Its BRR (Best Return Ratio) is only 0.9% which is the lowest in all my suggested stocks for year 2006. On the last trading day of 2006, 12/29/2006, its closing price is $23.50. (There was a 4:1 split on 10/11/06) This stock is undervalued seriously; it is worth to keep and has big potentials.

Review of 2006 Now, the year 2006 has almost been gone. It is the time to review and summarize my previous posts. I am glad to tell you that, for over 40 stocks that I suggested in my article, my Average Best Return Ratio is 40.5%. In less than a year (my first post is in March), this number is outstanding! Suppose the starting price of my suggested stock in my article (the closing price of my

Today is the Fed meeting day. People are waiting for the news whether there will be another interest rate rising. The economic data does not support such an increase. There is a little ground for Fed to do it to block the economy’s further movement. Let’s say: I don’t believe the Fed will increase the rate today. The market should be cheered when Fed halt the rate raising. I suggest you take

Review What on Your Radar For the week, the Dow dropped 0.63 percent, the SP was off 0.92 percent, and the Nasdaq declined 1.25 percent. After the Labor Day, the expected up did not come. Even the dropping oil price did not help, the market returned to another directionless circle. The sword of raising interest from Fed is on top of the market again. This fear has driven the market for too

The tech stocks are getting stronger. It is a positive sign for the market. The people are betting on the Fed will not increase the rate in September. After the Labor Day, we should see a relay.

Reports Week Last week, the Dow ended down 0.86 percent, Nasdaq fell 1.09 percent, and the S&P 500 dropped 0.55 percent. The market volume was lethargic. In the coming week, around two dozen economic reports will be released -- including consumer confidence, job growth and manufacturing figures. Investors might even get a better clue about what Mr. Ben Bernanke thinks of interest rates when

Play Safe! For the week, the Dow jumped 2.65 percent, the S&P 500 gained 2.81 percent and the Nasdaq surged 5.16 percent. We have not seen the Nasdaq had a bigger up then the Dow for a while. Finally, it appeared in last week. It is a good sign. The investors began to look the optimistic side of the market, perhaps they were too optimistic. This astrosphere will not stay too long.

Hold Your Fire! The market languished in negative territory last week. The Dow closed the week back 1.36 percent from the previous week. The S&P shed almost one percent. The Nasdaq tumbled 1.31 percent on the week. The market was very volatile during last week. After the Fed decided to halt the rate increasing, the investors started to fear that the Fed may be forced to lift rates yet again.

Would the Fed Increase the Rate? The Dow had the weekly gain to 0.18 percent. The SP increased 0.06 percent on the week. The Nasdaq managed the weekly loss of 0.43 percent. The market is not clear for the past week. Many people bet the Fed would not increase the interest rate again this week. If so, the market will definitely be encouraged by this “good news”. The questions are: 1. Has this

And the Nasdaq jumped 3.6 percent on the week. The ups bring investors some hopes and made the charts a little better than ugly. The markets heads into August with chronic uncertainties about the economy, interest rates,
