Ok, here are my thoughts about the Rocketeers and the future of investing. I already had started to see this with T-Mex. I don't fully understand his whole story, but what I see is a wealthy investor that, working with a pool of other investors, picks a stock, builds momentum on it, draws outsiders in, sells, shorts the stocks and makes a killing going up and down. That is totally unlike the Rocketeers. But what I do find similar and it wouldn't surprise to see this type of thing spring up all the investing world, is what is essentially the formation of a clan (in our case starfleet, but or the broader picture, please feel free to insert whatever word you feel appropriate). As a clan, we can wield impressive power in the investing world. Picking undervalued stocks and bringing them closer to their correct market value, allowing them to free themselves of the destructive MM games that can destroy BB stocks, at the same time making very tidy profits, which then leads the clan to its next investment (this would be about the time, that wider market is discovering the stock and starting to buy our float). This all just my theory of course, but I figure we have to sell some of our stocks to start our next ones (at least I will with my shallow pockets, those with the deeper pockets have less to worry about). Macker has said on the INFE or ICVI threads that he has more gems picked out, but he's holding out, because we can't spread ourselves to thin. Work with what we have first, build it up securely, before looking to colonize another planet. Methodically we can take control of one float after another (colonization). I was laughing when reading the article about the future of investing, because I think we are the future of investing. Who's going to bother with brokers when they can be part of a financial invasion fleet. They get more and better dd, trading online is cheaper, the impact can be far greater and the returns ENORMOUS. My one slight concern is warring factions and with the arrival of Tokyo Mex on ICVI, I'm expecting a fair amount of volatility if he gives it his momentum treatment. We keep trying to build, he swings up with us, then tries to short it back down. Time will tell, but whatever the case I feel that I'm part of a revolution in investing.
