If you want to impress eavesdroppers, the first thing you have to do is: CUT ALL THE BULL !
And at least know what you are talking about!

WALL STREET JARGON :


BULL MARKET - A random market movement causing an investor to mistake himself for a financial genius.

BEAR MARKET - A 6- to 18-month period when the kids get no allowance, the wife gets no jewelry, and the husband gets no sex.

MOMENTUM INVESTING - The fine art of buying high and selling low.

VALUE INVESTING - The art of buying low and selling lower.

P/E RATIO - The percentage of investors wetting their pants as the market keeps crashing.

BROKER - What my broker has made me.

STANDARD &POOR - Your life in a nutshell.

STOCK ANALYST - Idiot who just downgraded your stock.

STOCK SPLIT - When your ex-wife and her lawyer split your assets equally between themselves.

FINANCIAL PLANNER - A guy who actually remembers his wallet when he runs to the 7-11 for toilet paper and cigarettes.

MARKET CORRECTION - The day after you buy stocks.

CASH FLOW - The movement your money makes as it disappears down the toilet.

YAHOO - What you yell after selling it to some poor sucker for $240 per share.

WINDOWS 2000 - What you jump out of when you're the sucker who bought Yahoo at $240 per share.

INSTITUTIONAL INVESTOR - Past-year investor who's now locked up in a nuthouse.

PROFIT - Religious guy who talks to God.






Feeling like an investor already, huh? LOL

    Good one. Guess I'll keep investing in more guns and ammo. Wifey already refers to my collection as her Hawaii Fund. I don't think she wants to go for a short visit either.

    harlee --
    You had me primed, but this was a good one. It looks like those of us on this board are smart enough to know what the market is up to, because we've talked about the current market before here recently and nobody sounded too surprised. I do think that Disney is a heck of a buy at $15, because it is generally a $35 stock that was as high as $70 before the last split during their heyday in the late 80s.

    7700 is a good place to buy, for all the freaking people were doing. Grab as much cheap stock as you can, I say. It'll be back at 11,000 one of these days and you'll be glad you had some stock funds then, I'll wager.

    Best stock to buy is a new one for your rifle. Also the safest one.
    Best bond, is to bond with your children.
