    Stock Market Day-Trading Discussion Thread

    The CC bankruptcy got me looking at BBY. I think that's one that's screaming to be shorted. The quarterly earnings history is showing a strong negative trend, and I'm sure the worst is yet to come.

    Circuit City

    Ditto to Acpme's comment. The liquidation is the most publicized and well-known sale in the store's history, so they will probably get a lot of foot traffic. Price reductions will probably happen in stages. If you're hoping for a fantastic deal the item better not be in high demand.

    IR's quote in the WSJ online

    <blockquote> "He's starting to make some money off it now, not much," says Mrs. Lereah. "We have an expensive lifestyle: a big house, a housekeeper once a week, college tuitions, the country club." </blockquote> It breaks my heart to hear about how families are struggling so hard just to get...

    Exactly what I was thinking. I fill out the online .pdfs and my taxes are somewhat complex.

    Is the GEM a fit for Irvine?

    Would you believe GM had a similar concept vehicle <em>almost 30 years ago</em>? <a href="http://thenewcaferacersociety.blogspot.com/2008/03/vintage-1980-gm-lean-machine.html">GM's Lean Machine</a> <img src="http://www.rqriley.com/images/gm-lm2.jpg" alt="" />

    Is the GEM a fit for Irvine?

    Hey, me too. I see a red Sparrow less than a mile from my workplace on the way home most days. Owner is a elderly guy, and it doesn't look like there's much room in it for anything more than him.

    2008 tax returns

    Do you have past years' returns? If nothing's different, maybe you can refer to them while inputting 08's numbers on your own.

    The Big Lebowski...

    Wait, you think if we *had* seen it (how many years ago did it come out?) we wouldn't have to ask about the newest avatar? I don't think I would have made the connection anyway. Plan a movie night and line it up. :)
