What do you mean stock up? You cannot go two days without booze? Pretty sad.

Really!
For most of us 2 days without a drink isn't a crisis.
Sad is right.

Well.... The Carrie Nation Admiration Society chimes in. Who said it was a crisis?...I just thought if you had a function planned for the weekend, you might want to prepare. How many of us have been cought with the banks closed for some holiday we were not aware of. I'm not encouraging anybody to get shit faced, just advising of the situation...Gawd I can't believe I'm even bothering to respond to you two! Dead Horse Dead Horse

GBATRUCKS - I think it was a good post to let people know about Liquor stores being closed due to elections, if they're having a party. After all the election is every 6 years and some of us will forget.

If a store sells only liquor they will be closed. Other stores will sell with caution ... at least here in Melaque

Other considerations aside, never post the phrase: "Stock Up Today!!" where RIM shareholders might see it.

Just sets them up for a BIG disappointment.

Well, it's been awhile since I looked at the stock sheets, but RIM rings a bell. So does Nortel for that matter, which was probably an even worse disappointment. Luckily not to me personally. Didn't RIM scream up on very scanty news at one time? Wasn't it one of the dot b-mbs?

Hmmm, down over 19% today.

Never could figure out the accounting rationale for untested companies in dodgy, and risky businesses.

RIM (maker of the Blackberry) was the darling of the TSX even just 12 months ago. Pretty soon, people will be using their stock certificates as toilet paper.

That would be asking to get scratched TWICE.

No way. Better to take your money and use it for fire starters. Been long time since we played those games. Know lots of people who did, though.

Sorry, I phrased that poorly. I was going for a "No, you di'n't" kind of urban chic effect.

Failed miserably.

Well, let's see, Nortel is on the pinks now, valued at about 1 cent. Used to be about 180 a share if memory serves. Major scandal over accounting practices.

Here's a list of historical prices from 2010 to today, for RIMM. Not pretty reading.

http://finance.yahoo.com/q/hp?s=RIMM&a=01&b=4&c=2010&d=05&e=29&f=2012&g=d&z=66&y=594

If I were still into day trading, I'd be looking at what the insiders are doing. Wonder which institutions are holding this trash? If I had a company pension, I'd sure be looking into this one with beady little eyes and a microscope.

71.00 feb 2010 to 7.39 today.

They were up today meaning you missed your 14-1 peso exchange rate. Just wait a week or two

RIM has mismanaged themselves into near oblivion. The company owns a lot of very valuable patents but the problem is - other than Apple - any potential take-over bidders are almost in as much trouble as they are and Apple doesn't need to take them over - can get whatever they want from them as the demise continues at fire-sale prices.

Thank God I resisted buying when I was thinking about it. Still carry a Blackberry though.

Well I think the pharmaceutical companies will be making a killing pun intended.....We now have O'care... Want bet how many Representative's and Congress members took care of a few details before that pesky little law was passed about insider trading...

A most fortunate decision indeed. A better decision is to avoid the markets altogether. JMHO, and yes I have been involved in this over the years. Not on a professional basis, but as an interested bystander and investor. I don't leave stuff to chance, although sometimes things go horribly wrong.
