Macker, Rocket man, etc. This is a cult thread.
I don't know who you are, Glenn, nor do I normally visit this thread. However, by sheer serendipity I happened to read one of the most moving, mature (and non-hand-holding) posts I have read in a while from Citidude, and thought I would reply to him. I suppose I should have kept my reply in private. Like him and many others, I also got caught up in the excitement and hype of some bad penny investments last year and have sworn off pennies since then. I'm sorry if somehow that upset the applecart of this thread, whatever it is. It is ironic, given your reaction to whatever you may have reacted to, that you throw the word cult around -- I though there was no hand holding here.
No matter, I don't post on this thread anyway, preferring to post on stock-specific threads -- AOL and ATHM mainly, you know, those cult threads.
One last thing, and for the umpteenth time to state something that I thought was long ago dead about this "rocketeer" business. If some choose to use the term rocketeer, that is their choice but it has no relevance to my handle. I am a "rocket scientist" by profession, having been in the space business since the early Apollo days. I also like to have fun with it, as you can see from my handle.
Since this is a picks only thread, I will pay my dues before leaving and throw out ORB. It got hammered (rightly) due to accounting problems, but the hammering was overdone IMHO. They still have the first operational low-earth-orbit IP messaging system, an innovative family of launchers, lots of NASA and commercial contracts, and a new earth imaging business. Once ORB bottoms out, I think it should rise nicely, but I would not start a position unless I was sure it had bottomed. The rise Friday may have been a DCB. I am keeping it on my watch list though, and looking for the stochastics and macd to turn up.
Good luck with your investing, and good luck to those on this thread... |
