Netflix is now at an all time high (at $132), some people are going to lose some very serious money on this stock. I've traded this stock before and thankfully I got out of it. The stock is up 140% for this year alone, and this is too good to be true for...

In the same visit I did to check the availability of Apple products, I check the aisle of video games. For the last few months, I have the consistent feeling that this aisle is deserted, unattended, and unimportant to the retailer (again, this is the...

Every time I check AAPL through my investor account, I see a big buy recommendation (strong buy) predicting that the stock will be at $325 by the end of the year. I was always wondering how much that recommendation relates to real life, so I just paid a...

I did buy Mellanox 3 weeks ago at around $16. I sold the stock almost immediately at a very small loss, as I figured that I entered at the wrong moment (this was a wrong decision though as the stock rebounded to $17). Ever since, I started following the...

Looks like the storm is over, the Nikkei closed up, and some of the European markets closed while in the green. The Dow is still in the red, but it looks to me it'll close up by the end of the day. I lost quite a bit of money in this storm, but I...

I was wondering what the ultimate sin stock is for a while now, and it seems that it's Philip Morris (the makers of Marlboro, among many other cigarette brands). The cigarette company is one of the very few companies that regained its full strength after...

Wow, Is The Storm Over?

As I predicted in the morning, it was a very very very bad day. I almost accurately estimated how the DOW will close (at around 10,400 - it closed at 10,378). Needless to say, many traders lost quite a bit of money today, and the bad part that it doesn't...

Tough Day Today!

I usually check the Nikkei in the evening, and the STOXX 50 in the morning, to have an idea of what the day is going to look like. It's not looking good. The Nikkei (closed) is down 2.7% and the STOXX 50 is down 1.82%, this is because the Feds have...
