2nd journal 9/29/11

1.   DIVIDENDS-a sum of money paid to share holders out of earnings.
since i own a stock in  buckle i got paid my dividends

2.   EARNINGS- money earned
i work at the pool so my paycheck is my earnings

3.   PRIVATE COMPANIES VS. PUBLIC COMPANIES- private is inacessible  and Public is open to public
Verizon is a great private company and under armour is one of the most popular public company

4.   GROWTH STOCK-shares in a company whose earnings expected to grow above average

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

  1. You have good word definitions. I really understood them but i would add more numbers so you can compare companies better with money values and stock vocabulary.

  2. You sounded like you really know what you want to do with you stocks and you have a plan. i agree that you could use some more information about each of them.

  3. BRAHHHH.To me, the journal was somewhat confusing. I think it is because of the way you wrote it (punctuations and what not). I agree with Tess, it sounded like you have everything all planned out. You should change the color of the font or something, hard to read brah.

  5. i really like the fact that you have everything planned but i think you should put how much you bought it for so that you can see where it is on the 52 week thing
