I'm like you only I don't know what any stock
is really worth, I guess it's just what you think some
sucker might pay in the future.
Some people will look at book value and such but
that changes with the wind. Any way in my years
kicking around I've found "book value" of most
business are exaggerated to high heaven so the
bank who loans the money on them can carry a good
looking balance sheet.
When and if the real crap hits the fan and the
stuff that makes up book value hit the auction
block it will be lucky to bring 25% of what
they say it's worth.
I just bought some property the Local tax people valued
at 12K for 5K , so much for Book value. :-)
--------------
The Nasdaq crooks have changed the rules after
the fact to where they are going to let the under
$1 stocks stay listed. They should have their
heads chopped off, we need to get rid of all that
garbage or this market don't have a chance.
They put it on hold until Dec..
Also the NDX which should have tossed out the junk
today is now putting that off until DEC.
---------------
I see no need to rush into anything before they
carry out all the garbage.
I have a few sick puppies
( mostly qqq 2003 leap spreads ) but I'm over 70%
cash and bonds.
