This morning trading turned the market into correction again. I will be buying mutual funds only, but no individual stocks or ETFs. It seems the market is looking for direction. S&P500 is maybe entering into sideways trading. Let’s see what will happen next week.

Why is J&J falling? Maybe because Buffett’s buying…
Sometimes stocks act irrationally, weird and the opposite way than one would expect. Sometimes the whole market does that as well. Especially these days. I am closely watching my holdings as everybody should do and I am also watching Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), since the price drops make me nervous even though I am repeating Continue reading →
Picks 08/09 – 08/13
My weekly review of how my portfolios did this bumpy week. You can review my Trading account, which is my aggressive portfolio where I buy individual stocks, my ROTH IRA retirement account which is my dividend investing portfolio (to which I am focusing the most right now) and my Lending Club account, P2P lending investment Continue reading →
The market’s heading to a rally end
Stocks fall after disappointing Cisco (CSCO) earnings and jobless data for the third day and extending loss by 1% shortly after opening. If the markets close with this drop on high volume, the rally will be over.

Visa launches mobile payments
Investors freaking out based on Bloomberg’s Boo-boo news about AT&T (T) and Verizon (VZ) who announced development of their own mobile payment processing expecting to displace Visa’s (V) debit cards and thus threatening Visa and Mastercard (MA) and who were then selling those stocks – now be ready to buy them back. AT&T and Verizon Continue reading →
