Sold PEIX today @ 16.50
I decided to let go of PEIX at $16.50. I bought 1000 shares on Jan 25, 2007 at $16.00. This trade made a gain of $500 (3.1%) in less than a week.
On another note, I’m still holding on 1000 shares of AMD. AMD closed at $15.55 today, down 0.45 from my purchase price, or an [...]
Search for “Send A Tune”
It’s interesting to see where clicks come from on my site. I have one click coming from UK Google’s search engine and the user was searching for “send a tune”. Amazingly, my post on Business Idea #1 – SEND-A-TUNE came up. I tried the same query on US Google and receive the same results.

Sottrade vs Fidelity vs TD Ameritrade
And the winner of the Fastest Trade Execution Speed is… Scottrade!!
Seriously, Scottrade’s Trade Quality and Execution is absolutely amazing. Before the market opened today, I submitted three orders for the same stock and price at three different brokerage firms. I placed a limit order for TNL at $21.50 at Fidelity, Scottrade, and TD Ameritrade. And [...]
STX
STX finally topped over my target of $28 on Jan 24, 2007. Unfortunately, I sold my shares before 2007. I had held them for a long time but I became impatient towards the end of last year. The stock was trading sideways for a long time so I decided to sell it. I had done [...]
