RE:Gonna be a Rough Day for Big Brother Todaywhy is it that all the advice you give is terrible. you said to invest in valeant because it will be better long term than conncordia. that went bust didn't it... we are looking at a much lower price target than expected for that stock. You said to buy oil stock now to short because it can only head upwards... the oil index has been pretty slow and stagnant recently... i think your problem is you aren't a logical person. You say "buy valeant now, quickly!" but you failed to do some simple reasearch into its debt load and plans for divestment.. two things that can dimish a company's value very quickly. You said to buy oil, but you didn't even do the research into the amont of oil left int he US reserves which dictates any rise in value. You failed to see that by doing this you would find out that the US has enough oil in its reserves to keep oil cheap for at least one year before things go up, so you would make only small percentage gains on oil stock if you bought now and sold a few months later (not a terrible investment but you can do better)
Now you say SHORT Concordia and Valeant. While Valeant hasn't been green in awhile, and Concordia is looking to either go completely northwards or a few notches southwards then stabilize. If concordia goes straight upwards after earnings i woudn't sell too quickly because more funds will buy in and share prices will continue to grow, so at this point its either long or don't buy at all. Either accept the risk in the hope of high gains or just don't buy at all because you will be traped in a train to the north or the south of valueville.
All your advice is terrible so i often try to do the opposite of everything you say, fingers crossed for tomorrow.
