So I very briefly reviewed this article. http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/...ver-explained/ Looks like they're buying about 55% of the company's shares for $7.30 each. So there is probably a tender offer going on which you can accept to sell at that price. If you decline to do so, then after the deal closes you will be part of the 30% of non-Softbank stockholders of Sprint, and the share price will fluctuate per normal. While the $7.30 offer is out there, I'd expect the stock to trade north of $7.00 certainly. After that, all bets are off and the stock will do whatever it will do. |

So question -- do you stick to this even when the 20% increase is within the first year, such that it's a short term capital gain and you're paying taxes at ordinary income rates? If so, brutal. Don't think I can handle that. |

I bought Berkshire B stock around the time it was first introduced at about 1500.00 a share. Since then, they split the stock 50-1 so more people would buy it. It's now 101.00 a share. Gotta love the Buffet man.

I'm liking Intel right now. I bought 150 shares on Tuesday and it's already up close to $.70.
It's way undervalued, and a $.90 dividend on a < $22 stock is hard to beat. |

I bought some FRAN on Monday thinking it was due for a short squeeze. 45% shorts of total float is crazy undervalued. It's already up 9% today and looking like it might explode.

Damn - everything is up right now but some of my gains are Awesome.
I realize there will be some pullback at some point but the stocks I've invested in at the beginning of the year I like and want to hold long-term. Plus I can't sell yet because I would be taxed over the capital gains rate. The one "stupid" investment I made about 1.5 years ago just set a new high today (I'm up about 40% overall on it) but I'm just going to ride that one out. The gains thing doesn't factor in there because I bought that one in a retirement account so no taxes on the gains anyway. Oh well.. I'm actually anxious for a pullback because there are a few stocks I really want to buy (and should have 3 months ago) but I don't want to pay the price they're at right now. |
Obama and the Feds are watching this thread. Be careful...

Over the time period I had bought and sold a few stocks or some shares of different holdings. I can't complain with the results. The total investment time from my first purchase until today was 966 days and rate of return less all fees was 12.02%. Still have some incredible (and my total portfolio-best) performing individual stocks and mutual funds in my Roth account. The 401k only includes mutual funds. :) |
If you beat inflation, it's always a win.
