You missed one or two... LTB&H: Long term bet and hope. Often the result of a Momentum Investment. Swing investing: where the stock you just bought goes down, then up but not quite as high, then down again, then up even less.. and you stay on until the very bottom because you're scared it might go up just as you get off ;) Bear: someone who pretends they didn't buy the same shares as you at the same price, and is miserable about it. (they paid at least 60% off what the shares are now, up or down). Short: a bear who's really good at pretending. P/S ratio: like P/E, but more painful. Designed for internet stocks, which have less cash flow. Mutual fund: where you're too lazy to lose your own money, so you pay bankers to do it for you. Investment trust: an oxymoron. (UK esp.) Market: what you'll be selling your remaining possessions at, any day now. :p
