“What Kind of Stocks Do You Trade” ??
February 15th, 2006 by BWV
That’s what some friends asked this weekend at last Saturday’s surprise 30th birthday party for my homeboys Brandon and Larry.
My answer: “It basically doesn’t matter.”
Just today..
- Sold my Shanghai Petrochemical (SHI). Their business and location is self-explanatory.
- Also sold my PW Eagle (PWEI).. they are in Oregon and sell PVC pipe, of all things.
- Bought some Canon (CAJ) — and am ironically shopping for an upscale digital camera at this moment.
- Shorted Pilgrims Pride (PPC) and Sanderson Farms (SAFM).. 2 chicken farm stocks.
- Sold my GOL — the “Southwest Airlines” of Brazil and South America –and would like to add it back soon.
- Bought back SPIL.. a semiconductor company in Taiwan.
- Covered my 1-day short of Novatel (NVTL), a San Diego-based wireless communications equipment company.
Again, it really doesn’t matter.. the stock charts all speak the same language.
