I believe todaywill be a good day for stocks since Wachovia has announced its merger with SouthTrust, buying it for $14.3 billion.

A nice beginning to summer, indeed. :^

God Bless

Asluggish opening, but maybe things will shape up.

We'll see.

**oneyoungbuck** · 06-21-2004, 02:33 PM

Yeah, I read the news on Wachovia today also. Hope its a good sign for today. The market has been somewhat of a Flatline these past few days.

D'OH! :shock:

A feeling told me to buy TASR last week. :%

I didn't. :@

It gapped, :}18% today on ungodly volume. :l

So I bought a little.

And theeeeeeeen....

NVEC popped in my mind last week too. :%

It jumped :}33% today on unseen volume. :x

I will wait for a pullback/buy point.

I need to do more "Subconscious Trading"...

I think there is a chapter on that in the trading book I recommended. :u

haha! No kidding? I am so there.

I am going to make a mass book purchase when I get back from vacation, my buy list is sufficiently long enough for it. I am looking for books on candlesticks, too.

Well, today started up, but the enthusiasm is waning; however, I wouldn't be surprised if the week ended higher.

**tsptalk** · 06-21-2004, 07:51 PM

I'm hoping for some weakness this week with a tentative plan to be back to 100% stocks by the 28th or 29th, to catch that end of themonth / begin of the month historical strength.

**Rod** · 06-21-2004, 08:16 PM

Well, today wasn't as great as I had hoped for. Although there was positive news from INTEL and Wachovia, investors are still nervous about the 2 big events of the week- Iraq turn over and the FED.

Hopefully things will look up after the 30th.

God Bless

Rally?

Apparently not.

My stocks are The Big SUCK today. :?

Ah, a little improvement in the holdings.

Someone on here said "Charts don't lie" and they are correct. I sold SCSS yesterday pretty much on a hunch. I even contemplated selling it short. I got this today:
