11/30   I'm willing to wager $100 that Soda will be up for another 3 months
        or less before it is completely down for at least 3 days again.
        \_ I'm willing to bet it will be within 3 weeks.
           \- I'm willing to bet it will be down for months this time around.
              and most services will be fucked forever. -linxu
        \_ it's too bad there isn't a simple http://tradesports.com thing to handle
           futures trading on something like this.  i'd really be interested
           in one with a few more issues that big sites are too chickenshit
           to host, like:  Enter recession (two consec quarters neg GDP) by
           Q207, or NASDAQ below 2,200 by Feb 28, 2007.
           2Q07, or NASDAQ below 2,200 by Feb 28, 2007.

5/17    Tech stocks at all time high & Bay Area traffic and housing crisis
        is now worse than 2001. BUBBLE 2.0 BEWARE!!!
        \_ This time it is no bubble, at least not yet. Wake me up again
           when the Nasdaq hits an inflation adjusted record.
        \_ I don't know if this bubble qualifies as a tech bubble or a bubble
           at all.  Last weekend I saw hiring signs at McDonald's, Macy's and

1/25    Is there a site that tells you the % of people shorting
        on a particular stock? I'm trying to see if I can gauge
        "confidence level", that sort of thing.
        \_ http://www.nasdaq.com/symbol/intc/short-interest
           I'm not sure how to read this, I'm guessing the higher
           "days to cover" the more short activities there are?

1/16    Fred Wilson says you should focus on the cash value of your
        options, not the percentages:
        http://www.avc.com/a_vc/2010/11/employee-equity-how-much.html
        \_ Or at least, so says a VC trying increase his profit margin...
        \_ A VC wants to keep as much of the stock for themselves (and give
           as little to employees as possible).  That maximizes their return.

12/9    A public company (NASDAQ/NYSE) needs to publicly disclose
        important information right? Is there a way to find data that
        shows who owns most of the stocks, when they're dumping (to measure
        their confidence in the company), and how many people are shorting?
        \_ It has been a few years since I took a business organizations
           course, but from what I remember, there isn't a requirement for

6/27    What are your favorite metal trading platform? Is Kitco any good?
        I heard that Kitco doesn't report to IRS whereas Etrade
        automatically sends info to IRS. I'm wondering what I should use.
        \_ I trade tapes on Ebay.
        \_ I buy the physical stuff from a dealer in Chinatown who does not
           even take my name, just my money.

2/8     Hey, are Day and Week trader guys still around?  Just curious how it's
        going.  I was also thinking of doing some largely buy-and-hold
        investing, can anyone recommend an online broker?  I was thinking of
        Fidelity because I have a 401k there, but I don't need anything fancy.
        \_ market hasn't been volatile enough. I've made a few thousand
           this year but I really miss the Bush era.

4/19    I'm thinking of getting Roth IRA. Which company is good/pleasant to
        use? Etrade? Fidelity? Scottrade?
        \_ Buy Silver.  Gold is already overvalued.  We're going to hit
           hyperinflation the likes of which even God has never seen before.
        \_ Local credit union.
        \_ I recommend charlesSchwab

7/24    Stock trading question: If on Monday I sell FOO for $20000 and
        on Tue I buy BAR for $10000 with the "unsettled" money from
        the Monday FOO sale, the only complications are if I sell BAR
        before the FOO settlement on Wed/Thr, right? If I hold BAR
        until after the FOO settlement, then there is no issue on a cash
        account? Also, if I transfer in $10000 after the purchase on Tue,
