hehe, well at least I don't have a password for their website (got one you want to share?). Before I go back to just lurking, why don't I entertain the thread with the results of my latest exploits trading in the markets... Last week I mentioned on this thread that I bought the Malaysian warrants and the South Africa Fund. Well, apparently the Muslim fund couldn't keep KL propped up very long...maybe the folks on thread give good advice? Oh and as far as South Africa? Well the rand went down 4% the next day...and on a scary day for many of the un-emerging markets, gold managed to sag. Oops, another stinker. Heck, as long as I feel like confessing, why not let it all out: What's my favorite sector? Why that would be US biotech. Yup, even bought myself some Franklin biotech discovery fund last spring--and getting in at $27 (plus the load)...well that was nearly the highest price I could have paid this year.
