Your Stocks

[BigSully1]

If we kept the watch list limited to say the 25 or 35 most coveted stocks, it wouldn't be a  problem for the subscribers to follow them and report on fundamental developments, news, opportunistic technical points etc. on all of them, and it shouldn't be a big a problem for David to monitor our postings and then decide whether or not to pull the trigger on any.

I agree, on the Watch List, if somehow stocks can be filtered before they are posted. They need to be "quality" stocks that we would watch. I assume we are watching/waiting for a good buy/sell  point? 

How is this done without burdening someone with a lot of homework??

Maybe, if we had more detailed "rules"  before it is listed. David, don't you have a general outline of parameters you like to see met before "digging" deeper? market cap. profit margin, etc.

just my simple thoughts.

Added to my DGLY.ob today.

It seems no one on the members board is at all interested, so I'm going to go ahead and post about it on the public board.

Hey BigSilly1!!

Many, many times I am reading everyones information, but I do not comment. I do not feel qualified to respond, so just b/c "we" do not type something I hope people do not think we are not interested.

You have great picks & posts, along with other family members. I just read and soak it in. So, please do not feel like you are talking to yourself. I can only wish, I could give more to this board. I would ask questions, but who wants to take the time to answer those baby questions time and time again. Except David! He is such a sweet heart.

So, please do not be frustrated with us for missing out on a gem. Maybe people were turned off by the OB part, but it is moving up! Congrats on your find.
Yours truly, Houlahan

Houlihan, I'm just tired, very grouchy, and very glad that earnings season is all but over again. I'm ready for a vacation. How can I convince my wife that Overland Park, KS., headquarters of DGLY is a good place to vacation?

I know you appreciate, but I also know that  David does not appreciate or like my postings.

I don't think you should ever feel unqualified to comment or question, no matter how simple it may seem to you. I've asked many "dumb" questions myself, especially on technicals,  and am forever in a learning process. I'm  happy to answer when I can. Besides, discussion and questions lead to learning and discovery for all.

As to missing out on a gem; the price is still roughly the same, I don't know that it is a gem  yet,  it is still an OB,  ALL OB's are highly speculative as far as I'm concerned, and I'm not going to pump any stock, especially an OB stock. But I do think it worth looking into.

buenos dias! = good morning!
Houlahan, I am in the same boat because after reading some of the posts I konw I know nothing! 
but just like Bigsully says we all learn by being inquisitive.
I too have refrained from posting because as some would say " I is igant" or "I bees ignant" or simply I ignore ( ) quite a lot when it comes to this investment world.
I love the fact though that David provides this interative service.

Quite the opposite BigSully. I have added DGLY and ATRO into my watchlist. Keep up the contributions.

Was it you who asked if I live in Australia? Yes I do, in Perth. It's a beautiful country and right now we are heading into summer. That means I get to swim in my pool most days and enjoy the warmth of the sun. I used to live in the UK, those of you familiar with UK weather will know why I love the sunshine here so much

Vietnam Plans to Buy a Dozen Boeing 787s

Vietnam Plans to Order 12 Boeing 787s Amid Growing Demand for Air Travel in Southeast Asia


HANOI, Vietnam (AP) -- Vietnam plans to buy 12 Boeing 787s to meet growing demand for air travel in the booming Southeast Asian country, officials said Friday.
State-owned Vietnam Airlines will purchase four of the planes and a new joint venture called Vietnam Aircraft Leasing Co. will purchase eight, company officials announced at a news conference. They expect to sign the deals soon.

Vietnam Airlines and Chicago-based Boeing Co. declined to disclose the price of their deal. VALC said in a news release it would pay $1.42 billion for its eight planes.

Many companies in the region are lining up to buy new planes, said Pham Ngoc Minh, vice president of Vietnam Airlines and chairman of VALC. "If we don't make a quick and bold move now, the delivery of the planes would have to be pushed back further," Minh said.

VALC is a consortium of five large state-owned Vietnamese companies, including Vietnam Airlines which is the biggest stakeholder with 23 percent. VALC will lease its 787s to Vietnam Airlines when the planes are delivered in 2014.

Vietnam Airlines now has 46 aircraft in its fleet. Two years ago it said it planned to have 80 planes by 2015 and 110 by 2020.

Given the rapid pace of economic growth in Vietnam, Minh said, the company may have to purchase even more aircraft.

In September, Vietnam Airlines signed a memorandum of understanding with Airbus to buy 10 A350-900 plus 20 smaller A321s.

Communist Vietnam has been implementing free-market reforms, and its economy is now among the fastest growing in the world, increasing by more than 8 percent last year. The country joined the World Trade Organization earlier this year, and foreign investment and tourism are booming.

Vietnam Airlines spokesman Trinh Ngoc Thanh said Vietnam's air transport market has grown an average of 15 percent per year in recent years.

Vietnam Airlines had already previously ordered four 787s in 2005.

To date, Boeing has won more than 700 orders for the 787, while Airbus has received 154 firm orders and 110 nonbinding commitments for the similarly sized A350, which is scheduled to enter service in 2013.

buenos dias!
Hi pinoleropuro & BigSully1,
Thanks for your encouragement to ask questions. I would say it was my pride getting in the way of asking questions. 
Eek the day is ticking away and I have stuff to do! bye

I know you appreciate, but I also know that  David does not appreciate or like my postings.

Don't be silly, I love your posts

Looking forward for your help at the Watch List board. The thing is just getting started, next week I'll start many more threads there ... of course, you can start threads too.

Going to pick up my kids now, see you.

[BigSully1]

David, instead of clogging up and just getting lost on your watch list, I posted 19  of my current best picks on the public "stock picks" board today instead. I doubt you will find any of them appealing, but if by chance you do, you can always copy them to your watch list, if you are so inclined. I had to start new threads on these TDG, ATRO, ACO, CTRP, ENS, EHTH, CRM, TKC, AXYS, SDA, DGLY.ob, PLXS, LFT, HIMX, HMIN (HMIN only on watch). The following already had threads and I just added comments-  BIDZ, ABAX, BPHX, SXE.

For me, almost of these stocks I already own, several very recently, and aren't exactly on MY watch list, with exceptions being HMIN - ER due Tues and don't own any yet, LFT and HIMX only own small amounts, SXE  have a reduced amount, still really like the stock and am watching for possible re-entry at some time. SXE was 1 year ago IPO, asked you to analyze back in Feb.

All of these I believe to be very solid picks into the future, with the exception of possibly HMIN, LFT, HIMX.

LFT's ER due Monday morning.

Still working on a few more from this seasons ER's, but not ready to post on them yet.

Hey Sully!

First of all, if that is the "worst" thing you do, you're OK with me!!lol  It was not that bad! Of course we forgive you!! We all get tried and cranky and act "bad" sometimes. Although, I would not call it bad in my book.

Do not keep your distance from this board, unless you are on vacation! Sounds like you have been working hard and the stock market has been working hard against us.
I smell, in the air, a turn in the market, early December.

So, enjoy your rest. Have a wonderful vacation! Happy Thanksgiving. I am thankful for you! Come chat soon.
