stocks and bonds


(to be completed)

thinking back to the times when logic made sense even when the world didn't buy it, I felt my brain digesting the past week and loving so much of the wake up call that the festival was that the mourning of loss of time and past dreams and people almost faded from view... yes, of course I said almost... don't you understand the process yet?... nothing last forever, except the stuff you hold on to...

"There's nothing to understanding people.
All you have to do is take a close look at yourself
and you will understand everyone else."

~ Isaac Asimov

I think we should all wish her well and mean it... this entry is made up of stuff that was going to be entries last week, but time was not available and in this catch-up flurry I shall put some of the leftovers together rather randomly to provide an entry for this date... feel free to skip or savor as you please... and also, critique to your heart's content...

so anyway, I might have told you this already but then, I might not have since I don't remember and it is still sitting in the ramble files... last week I found this stock report at work, I might have mentioned it... it was a Nano Technology stock selling for $2 and change... it opened in September of last year for a nickle a share and the company made some good aquisitions and has good plans and instinct said buy now... I took a copy of the report home with the intention of opening a brokerage account somewhere (since my account from before I lost everything is probably dead, but it's something I'll check into eventually since I did have one stock left on that account when I abandoned the financial material world) and picking up the stock... just an impulse, a lark, a spree (it's very clear to see)... just a spoon full of sugar that I hope would stay sweet... just a test of my instincts (once I bought a stock for 58 cents a share... it topped off over $20 a share and it's currently worth $4.06 a share... I still own those 200 {or was it 300} shares, technically, though I left the stock certificate in Toronto and would have to do a trace with the company and see if it can be found and proven as still mine)...

anyway, I couldn't find the stock report when I got home... I probably left it at work... I decided that leaving the report at work must have been the universe (or my subconscious, or both) telling me that it was not time to take a flying leap back into very speculative stock trading just now...

today I found another stock report at work (they appear weekly)... it was pushing the same stock that caught my eye this week... it was listed as selling for $3.12... I forget exactly what it was selling for last week, but I am pretty sure it was under $2.50 and so I would have made more than $50 on every hundred shares I'd have bought last week... in just one week...

I remembered to bring home the report today... I checked online for three of the most popular online brokerages and picked the best deal and signed up, opened an account, deposited money, and went to buy the stock... it was selling at $3.20 at yesterday's market close... after thirty minutes today it was up to $3.29...

the site told me I was not allowed to buy the stock for seven days because it is a speculative stock... some rule that the support people said could not be broken... I almost closed the account, but I figure it's one more message from the universe that either I am not to buy this particular stock or that I am to miss out on a great opportunity because I am not mentally or financially organized or I simply am being taunted to take an even greater risk next week when the stock might be over $4...

oh well, so I won't make an easy few thousand extra dollars this month... c'est la money... I'll just have to keep my eyes open for ways to play with the monopoly dollars I put into the brokerage account...

and then, the mail brings in another Rilo Kiley CD (The Execution of All Things) from the library and I am so loving their sound... I still have not found/made time and space to truly absorb the whole of their moon (see The Waterboys for the reference and then, maybe not), but the sound is appealing and the snips of words that are sinking in have not put me off (which is always a good thing, since the difference between a great group and a favorite group is almost always the words... music is still so much more fun than money...
