<p>Holy I have PANW and it went up 6%. I told my supervisor to buy it. I hope he bought it. I can’t find any reason why it went up.</p>
<p>DrGoogle, very nice!</p>
<p>dstark, thanks. I think JP Morgan security breach is what might drive up the stock. JP Morgan didn’t even know it had a breach until months passed.</p>
<p>I have an account at jp morgan. </p>
<p>So… We have breaches at Target, Home Depot and JPM…</p>
<p>The new warfares. Who needs guns and missiles?</p>
<p>I’m listening to Dan Nathan and his November 87 - 92 - 97 butterfly on xle. I’ve thought a lot about xle lately. Unfortunately, Nathan is almost always wrong.</p>
<p>I’ve heard option action about XLE. But I still think oil is going down. </p>
<p>Some of the trading geeks at work found a new topic of interest - how Ebola will affect the market depending on the extent of the epidemic.</p>
<p>It has already impacted some drug companies, airlines and hotels - companies associated with travel.</p>
<p>Everybody is predicting that the market is going higher after the small 4% correction. What do you think? Are you getting longer in your holdings?</p>
<p>I would be long if it dropped below 16000, but not right now. But I buy and sell, aka trading.</p>
<p>This guy always provides insightful info: <a href=“Weighing The Week Ahead: Will Global Weakness Drag Down The U.S. Economy? | Seeking Alpha”>Weighing The Week Ahead: Will Global Weakness Drag Down The U.S. Economy? | Seeking Alpha;
<p>I agree China and Europe will weight down the market. BTW, I’ve read that HPQ is going to split, I wonder how to trade if this is true. Or does it matter?</p>
<p>I called my husband today and asked if he was sitting down. Apparently one stock I shorted filed chapter 11. I couldn’t close the short fast enough. I usually don’t sell or buy at the market but I was unable to sell the stock on limit and I was worried I would loose the big gain. I shorted at around $10 and it’s around $1 when sold. It’s purely good luck because I was in the red for one day. I told my hsuan the good karma but follow me because I’ve been helping my sister. Good trading day every one. This should make me humming all day or at least for a while.</p>
<p>Which stock is it?</p>
<p>*GTAT</p>
<p>That is a big win. You should enjoy yourself. :)</p>
<p>Now I can focus on trading! The trial is over. It was very interesting to see the travails of the super rich.</p>
<p>I trades SODA today and made some money. Not spectacular but positive. However with the market down 277 I’m afraid to hold on to my shorts. YOKU was a break even, not great, not bad.</p>
<p>I was talking to my wife this morning and I told her that I dont have the interest in trading anymore. We better invest the money elsewhere. And then I said, “That is your job”. 
She understands real estate better than me.
I had no idea that the Dow dropped 270 points . What happened? Afraid to look at my account. At least I am not short any weekly puts. :)</p>
<p>I think it’s Germany, bad economy. Luckily I closed out etf on German like months ago. I still have uk but this whole market is down.
Btw, GTAT was recommended by Mad Money Aug 26. Good thing I don’t listen to that show anymore. I closed out my Xirius FM account for my car. I didn’t want to listen to stock market all the time.</p>
