I put some trading money to work for me this past week or two--I was rewarded with a 15% spanking before I got out. BTK immediately started up as soon as I dumped my positions. This evening I am looking around for ideas. quote.yahoo.com There might be an idea or two in this mostly random sampler. But I'm not yet prepared to take another beating. I've no idea where to go for easy money. I have two accounts that are down 50% in the past year--one I'd earmarked for trading, the other for averaging in to more conservative idea. I think it says something that both accounts have withered similarly. Thank goodness I had the sense to tie up some money in a CD last year. At present I'm 2/3rds cash, 1/3 stock. Retirement has been delayed a decade or two. No right to complain of course, lotsa folks have nixed any idea of an early retirement following this devaluation.
