I just read Howard Lindzon’s book The Wallstrip Edge: Using Trends to Make Money — Find Them, Ride Them, and Get Off .  It’s a really fun book – 200 pages of the inside of Howard’s brain.  There are so many things about Howard that I love including: He is totally hilarious He...

Quick, what’s the hippest name in business news? If you said CNBC, you are sooo not with it. “I am pissed because our government is focused on deal-making and not policy,� says Howard in a recent StockTwits post. But if you said Wallstrip, you obviously know “where it’s at.� In the 18 mo...

I am not sure who will survive and what the landscape will look like, but banks are still the best business once the shit is cleared out of the system. Big bets are already being plunked down in the last few days on who will survive and thrive. That type of betting is not for me. BUT, I am a tiny in...

Other than Bloomberg , ‘The Fly ‘, and StockTwits stream on Twitter, I have cut down on my financial reading. I am still excited to grab a weekend Investor’s Business Daily just to check in on the leadership, but that’s been a waste of time lately. I have learned that writing...

I can’t bare to look at myself and yet I am dumb enough to go on television. I hope Cody is making a lot of money because everything about television sucks from the preparation to the lights to the make-up…. What really pisses me off is I spent so much time grooming for my short televisi...

Not for a lack of ideas, let’s see what the blogosphere has fpr you: 1. Jim Cramer is building a wind play (his mouth and ass have been stapled shut and he is being force fed beans) - go watch the video . 2. A broken, but interesting ‘China is getting Fatter, Fatser than us ‘ Play ...

Shipping stuff costs a lot more money than wiring things and as Federal Express suffers, Western Union (WU) is busting out. The price may be ‘telegraphing’ (no pun intended) more strength ahead. We covered Western Union (founded in 1851) on Wallstrip and I recommended keeping an eye on t...

Looking at Tiger Woods, Oil, Sirius, Airlines, Salesforce.com, RIMM, Nintendo and Yahoo today has me thinking about momentum. It’s all around us and a profit miracle for small investors. Yet, small investors have no clue it seems. They watch CNBC, read USA Today and subscribe to trading servic...
