RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Been holding since pre 2003 BRP spin off @ $23.65 a shareIt's a great strategy , I trust no one , especially no large salaried fast talkers who run companies where they have no experience but yet the company is doing well " on paper" .. NORTEL taught me a little lesson .... I bought big enough into the Dow in 2008 in order to take advantage of the dividends it pays now but besides that the rest is okay money with large enough risks , I learned the hard way ( through the bomber ) that what the big wigs say and do are totally different things , I knew my I vestment was "safe" but it did not go as planned ... the comeback was inevitable but it was a tough one to say the least ... the family did the honourable thing by not pushing the company into bankruptcy and buying it back for pennies ... Martel will make us some money in due time , when they are good and ready ... until then , enjoy the show ... GLTA ... AND GO HABS GO

I have learnt that playing the so called long game has become a much losing proposition especially here in good ole manipulative Canada. We are a third world nation when it comes to the stock market and investing. It's all about the volume and liquidity and screw the fundamentals. The worst is the resource sector and there is virually no stock here that is immune from naked short selling which is equivalent to legal counterfeiting. I don't stay in any stock for any length of time any longer and it's been about 3 years I have been doing that and have had much better results even with the 7.00 commission cost.
I am checking out a site called WealthSimple which is commision free since I pay well over 10 grand in commissions every year.

I too believed we would crash soon enough but it looks like the growth is never ending ,, inflation should have calmed the buying frenzy but the opposite happened , the US. Devalued their dollar and made buying more enticing ... I am tempted to cash out of the market but days like today cannot be missed ... The bomber should be priced at $3 just on the potential they have in service centres but the market makers are not gonna let that happen until they are ready and that time is approaching quickly ... I'm staying in just to see how high the markets will get , after all it's just profit ... GLTA
