[GreenDoberman]

been pumping up and loading up on Jones Soda for a few months now. They will get a bump when they are NASDAQ listed soon as well.

Sirius is seriously diluted.

Krispy Kreme may have hit bottom, but is loaded with problems.

This came from a Motley Fool article, btw.

BUY STOCKS WHEN THERE IS BLOOD IN THE STREETS.

SELL STOCKS WHEN EVERYONE IS THROWING A PARTY.

BUY AND HOLD DOES NOT WORK.

RATHER THAN BUY LOW AND SELL HIGH, TRY BUY HIGH AND SELL HIGHER!

Jones Soda up 22% today on earnings and Wal-Mart carrying their product.

Sitting at over $17, it has more than quadrupled since first being noticed on here.

I think Six Flags is going to go up a decent amount over the next few months...I think that looks solid

[5teamparlay]

sirius radio is $5.30


On the otherhand SIRIUS is at 3.42 2 years later.

But if you owned 4 of these and one quadrupled, and the other 3 went bellly up you'd still be even. PROPS to Jones soda.

[GreenDoberman]

Sirius got basically bought out and still no gain. I have always told people to stay away from Sirius because of the huge share float. People see a company with a decent product, but don't understand market capitalization makes it almost impossible for it to explode like some of the others.

Sirius has basically run the entire satellite industry into the ground. Their technological decisions cost them dearly and in order to compensate for XM's vastly superior technology, they had to pay through the nose to get content (NFL, NHL, NBA, Nascar, Stern and every other Tom, Dick or Harry that could pull in a few thousand subscribers). In turn, XM had to go out and spend a bundle on MLB just so they could say they had one of the sports.

Now as Sirius has bankruptcy in their future, they agree to buy out XM. If XM doesn't take the offer, Sirius will come out of chapter 11 fully funded ready to spend like a drunk sailor again. Sirius' satellite's only have 7-8 years of life left (if I remember correctly). They need roughly a billion to replace them.

"BUY AND HOLD DOES NOT WORK.

Buy and hold would work if good stocks were picked and most people werent in charge of the account. What happens many times is the market has a rough period and people sell at the bottom and wait for the market to get better untill they get back in. Most people get in the way of this strategy.


Buy high and sell higher. It is better to trade with the trend than try to fight it by trying to guess the bottoms.

Active Trader Update
Jones Soda Still Has Fizz

Jones Soda (JSDA) won't quit. Why should it? One of the big knocks against the company is that carbonation, as a category, is awful and no company in the category can buck it.

But this week we have analysts talking about how carbonated beverages could be getting some life.

If that's the case, you could have Jones going up off the category growth or from the possibility that the larger soda companies want to bulk up and add more product lines (don't forget private equity and Cott are talking about buying Cadbury's (CSG) beverages. This group is hot.)

All of this works because Jones has just gone with the business model -- sell the syrup nationally in unusual venues rather than bottle for Target (TGT) only -- and the margins could explode.

This is a stock that will remain in the news positively until it becomes a billion-dollar company too big to acquire.

That's not for another $350 million. On a $650 million basis, that's not bad.

Jones has, like Hansen (HANS) , gone beyond fad, but so few want to jump off here. Don't make the mistake that so often is made with many stocks that are in breakout status: The big move is still happening.

Is there a site that tells you when a stock will be going to the NASDAQ
?

[GreenDoberman]

Wrigley,
Look up listing requirements. I'm sure there is but I don't know it. I usually find it off the wire reports of the companies I'm researching.

Thanks GD ! You and others here provide some great info here appreciate it when you and others list stocks you like.

[GreenDoberman]

Not too often you will hit one like Jones. Of course, it could still sink back down but will unlikely reach levels like $4 again. They are now nationally carried and in a monster store like Wal-mart.

Always willing to share any good ideas I may have.

You may want to take a look at that thread I started on LONG. Certainly a stock with good upside and very minimal downside.

I would like to comment on the buy and hold theory. As mentioned here before have been a broker for 20+ years. My goal has always been to buy big cap stocks for trades and buy mutual funds midcap and small cap for buy and hold. It is difficult to get information on the small guys so I let the funds do their work and their returns over time have been terrific. Mid-cap value has been the best historically.
I know many would rather buy 300 shares of an $8.00 stock than 100 shares of a $24.00 stock but you have to take the heavy speculation out and let the solid companies do there work.
Its hard sometimes when your young to say oh I bought a stock at 24 and sold it at 30 as its not a lot of money but if you can kep reapeating that your dollars will grow and when you get a little older as we all do the buy and holders usually are o.k.
An exampleVLO volero was 22 3 years ago is now 67.
So if your going to be an investor not a speculator or trader put 80% in solid things and use the other to speculate if you must. Its not like betting baseball. best to all. heart222
