Stock Tip

[fundonny]

I use TD Waterhouse personally. Very easy.

Rich, if you don't want Photochannel, maybe Enablence is more for you, but it's more expensive at around 50 cents. I don't have anything in the range you're looking for (50000% return).

Well gentlemen,

Good luck with the stock. I'd like to call it Las Vegas without wasting all that time on the plane and clearing customs...

If you would like to GUARANTEE anything, try setting up some strategies that help to reduce your taxable income. (hint: do you use line 221 on your tax return?)

As shameless self-promotion, I am a certified financial planner and help my clients to set themselves up properly for their portfolios, retirement and estate planning. Stock gambles can be fun, but don't guarantee that you are limiting what the taxman grabs when you move on to that golf course in the sky.

For every winner out there, count the losers. I will say that most people that I have come across have lost far more than they have gained.

As a wise man once said, "investments are a matter of opinion, taxes are a matter of fact."

Yes, I know, I borrow to invest in dividends paying funds so that I can claim the interest paid and also enjoy the benefits of the gains on my returns. Mama didn't raise no fool. But ya gotta throw in some risk in there, or it just gets boring. In this case, you can't argue with the return. If you research a company that is a diamond in the rough, nothing wrong with sinking some money into it.

Sorry to lecture FD,

Just wanted to insert a little reason back into the discussion.

As long as people realize that "playing" with a small percentage of their portfolio is all that this will ever amount to, then by all means enjoy! I much prefer throwing money at green fees and the occasional new club.

Having said that, one of my friends tipped me off on Netease, a Chinese internet stock at 1.95/share. It peaked somewhere near a hundred bucks... The same friend tipped me to buy Jaguar Nickel at 1.20/share, and it is down bigtime. Everyone has stories of winners and losers. I try to stay away. (although my friend did purchase a fully loaded A6 4.2 l with his profits from the first one...)

The only share that I buy personally is the company that I work for because
a: it is an excellent and highly profitable company
b: the company matches my contributions at 50%

fundonny,
25.5 cents to be exact Up 45% in less than a month for me...not too shabby. I am contemplating buying more.

jonf,
You can open an account with CIBC - Investors Edge. You can view and manage your account through the internet. Their trade commissions are low compared to others.

[jonf]

Thanks for the info all. I'm going look into a few things tomorrow and get into this - see if I can expand the car fund.

Sounds like Nortel in the old days...until the crash.

[dH]

So much for waiting until it sinks back to 23 cents! Doh! Look at the volume on it compared to normal and it's only 11AM!!!!!!!!

[SGH]

This is some great momentum PNI - volume is high and things only seem to be on the up and up! Timing is of utmost importance now.

As a starving student, I like to invest in KD and MGD, but I wish you guys the best!

I only trade in options. I made money when the market crashed and also made on the way back up. I made more trading options than I would have had I purchased the stock and didn't have to invest as much. I've only lost money on one stock in 3 years and that was cool brands... they lost me a butt load of money, they had a sharp decline because they sued weight watchers and then weight watchers wrongfully terminited their deal with them. I thought it would go back up so I bought some options, lots of them with a fairly higher strike price.... never happened

[em69]

27.5...up 10% today.

[jonf]

ARGH....my account isn't up and running yet...missed a really good day today.

[dH]

27.5...up 10% today.

That's 5 years in a basic "savings account" but you'd never get that if you factored inflation.

I bet everyone who reads this thread myself included wishes they had bit when he mentioned it at 13 or 11.5 cents!

It is never too late. I bought at 17.5c, so I'm up 10c a share. Not too shabby for the first 6 weeks.

So far, this stock is following the route which fundonny had mentioned.

[fundonny]

I know what I'm doing! LOL!!!

[fundonny]

Okay, here's the poop. Tomorrow is a 10 for 1 reverse split. So 10,000 shares at 24.5 cents becomes 1,000 shares at $2.45. I talked to my source, today's selloff was expected but he said in a few days I should be really happy. Gut feeling only, but I think Photochannel is being bought by Kodak, again, gut feeling only.

[em69]

Then I guess I should be really happy as well
I'm crossing my fingers and waiting to hear the news.

As an update to Donny's last e-mail.

The reverse split happened last week and there appears to be a method to the madness.

Yesterday, Photochannel announced they have partnered with Kodak (Qualex Inc). Today the share price rose 24 cents to an all time high of $3.00. My guess is that this is a stepping stone to Kodak eventually buying out the company.

With this partnership, increased profits are almost guarranteed.

Fundonny truly is a fortune teller.

It is not too late. This partnership is the beginning of something very interesting. There is still an opportunity to triple your money within the year.

My neighbour just bought some this morning.

[dH]

I wish i had bought more but such is life. And em is right; it's till cheap you can't beat yourself up over how much you coulda if you woulda earlier; you still could if you would buy now I"m gonna w/ what I got; obviously if i could go bck i woulda taken out a line of credit and thrown it all at 11.5 cents haha

So What Ended Up Happening, It Sarted At 13 Cents And Is Now At $3 With An 8-1 Reverse Split???

[jonf]

10-1

[em69]

So What Ended Up Happening, It Sarted At 13 Cents And Is Now At $3 With An 8-1 Reverse Split???

On Nov. 1st, is closed at 24.5 cents (or $2.45). It rose to $3.00 the next day.
It is currently $3.08. The last couple of days have seen some new all time highs.
ROB TV have given this stock a 5-star rating. IMO, there is very little risk with this stock now that they have partnered with Kodak.

[fundonny]

Damn damn damn. I heard about ROK first thing Friday morning but held off. The darn stock went up almost 20% in one day. I should have pulled the trigger.

[pir2]

3.56! 2:35PM Dec 22!

[fundonny]

End of January should be the big news that'll drive up the price some more.

[jonf]

Argh....Wish I could have got in earlier....I think I'm going to put a few hundred in and call it my Scotty Fund.
