journal:
one of the two stocks that i chose is pepsi co (pep). i chose it because i like their products and i get a pepsi about 3 times a week. the 52 week of pepsi co is 59.25 - 71.89. pepsi has a rival which is coke and all of their products. the difference between them is the taste of the pop and the 52 week range 52.34 - 76.32.
transactions:
i bought netflix as a short sell because it has been down for two weeks now and right now it is making me $2,967.34 by itself. this is one of my best buys so far and i will probably keep it for another week if it does good. another stock that i just bought is pepsi. it has had its ups and downs and right now it is up again. its a good stock once it is up and it never has gotten down past 3.00%. i think pepsi is going to be down by next week to where im losing more money. and netflix i think its going to still be down within the next two weeks.
last part:
apple has 46000 emplyees and even though it is down right now its a good stock and will make you alot of money once it is up. to be honest i think this is an investment rather than a trade. even tho it is an investment i am still going to keep this going on in my porfollio. another stock i got is Direxion Daily Basic Matls Bear 3X Shrs this stock is an investment too and is seeking daily investment results. By investing at least 80% of its net assets in financial instruments that, in combination, provide leveraged and unleveraged exposure to the index

journal:

the best stocks i have is apple and costco. i chose these because Apple is a very popular company and so is costco. the stocks for them were both in the 4% range when i first got them and they just hit a minor bump and went down. I have faith that they will come back up in the next couple of days and bring my anual return up as well. these stocks are between me having alot of money and losing money.

stock predictions: all of the stocks i have bought are very popular and great companies. within the next couple of days they will be up and running the way they were a couple of days ago. these were the best transactions that i have made so far. i just recently bought china potrolium and chemical. i did this because i think that with this it will help the rest of my money stay at a sationary pos. with me loseing money from everyone of my stocks. it will balance out.

I think that the Alkadia won... i think they won because we are still in Afghanistan fighting. They scarred us and we are trying to get revenge on them. To them it seems like its just a game that wont end... and when we least expect it they will attack again. they scared americans from going on planes. We are emotionally scared and scarred... we just dont realize how much they impacted us yet.
