About me
I'm just a "regular" guy with a job and mortgage. I'm married with 5 kids (youngest is 9 months old)...so finanical issues are pretty important to me. My first experience with investing started with my Individual IRA (about 5 years ago). As time passed, I became more interested in investing and market dynamics. I really wanted to have more control over my finanical future, so I started doing more research and planning on my own. It didn't take long for me to get "hooked." Now, I spend a little time each day reading the financial news, following the market trends, tracking my own investments, doing research, etc. Some people would say I have a "High" risk tolerance because I invest in more than just mutual funds (i.e. stocks, options, commodities, and FOREX). I just like to think I'm "diversified."

Thanks for following...and a big "THANKS" to Zacks.com!!! I wish you all profitable investing!

BUY: BARRICK GOLD CP (ABX) Rating: 3
Start Price: $40.51
Points: -4.01
Created: 12/08/2009
Gold is taking a short-term "breather," but still appears to be a long-term bull market. I decided to add another gold stock to my portfolio...which just happens to be the world's largest gold miner.

BUY: REPSOL YPF S.A. (REP)
Start Price: $27.08
Points: +2.97
Created: 12/08/2009
This is a long-term buy. Oil is way down this week...but it won't stay down forever. This is a limited resource that will become more expensive to find and bring to the surface over time. Plus, they recently announced a major oil strike in Argentina...which is a big bonus.

BUY: KINROSS GOLD CP (KGC) Rating: 2
Start Price: $21.74
Points: -85.32
Created: 09/02/2009
Wish I had picked this one up back in April when it trading much lower. Oh well. I'm still expecting gold to shoot up over $1,000 in the long-term, even it drops to $850 in the short. Time will tell...but I like this pick if you're looking for an upshot in gold and gold-related stocks.

BUY: FMC TECHNOLOGIES INC (FTI) Rating: 3
Start Price: $23.30
Points: +95.96
Created: 09/02/2009
Another offshore deepwater play. This one may fall to $33 per share if the overall stock market takes a tumble, but I expect it to trade much higher in the future. Good long-term prospects.

BUY: CAMERON INTL CP (CAM) Rating: 2
Start Price: $35.18
Points: +26.41
Created: 09/02/2009
Looking to add some offshore development stocks...and this one fits the bill. Plus, their financials are rock solid! Short-term pain (perhaps), but l'm looking for a long-term gain!

BUY: NATIONAL SVC IND STOCK DIST (NGD) Rating: 2
Start Price: $2.37
Points: +21.71
Created: 07/10/2009
New Gold, Inc. is a gold mining company focused on the exploration and development of the Afton Copper-Gold Project, located 6 miles (10 km) west of Kamloops, British Columbia.

This is a very speculative pick right now. I think gold and mining stocks will be very volatile in the short-term.

However, I am looking for the long-term bull market in all things gold to continue. As the price of gold continues to rise, I expect the share price of NGD will climb along with it.

Time will tell.… More

SELL: BANK OF MONTREAL (BMO) Rating: 1
Start Price: $39.44
Points: +5.49
Created: 07/10/2009
Canadians bank, along with most stocks in general, have been on a nice run since February. But is it really sustainable? I believe the Bank of Montreal is in the same position many US banks were in last year...and a drop is in their near future.

This stock is currently trading about $10 off it's 52-week high. I'm betting it will soon be near it's 52-week low of $19.32. Time will tell.

SELL: CALIFORNIA PIZZA KITCHEN INC. (CPKI)
Start Price: $12.83
Points: -5.44
Created: 06/22/2009
Another bet that an overpriced restaurant will soon feel the ill effects of higher unemployment and reduced consumer discretionary income.

I like good pizza as much as the next guy, but with the economy the way it is...I'm sticking with the $5 version from Little Caesar's...not the $14 ones you get at California Pizza.

We'll see if other people agree with me...and what the Street thinks.

SELL: P.F.CHANG'S CHINA BISTRO INC. (PFCB) Rating: 3
Start Price: $31.05
Points: +24.94
Created: 06/22/2009
I'm betting that consumer discretionary incomes will continue to evaporate, and people will be eating less out less....especially at overpriced restaurants like PF Chang's.

Time will tell...

BUY: ANGLOGOLD ASHANTI LT (AU) Rating: 2
Start Price: $40.15
Points: -31.62
Created: 06/03/2009
In anticipation of higher inflation, a declining dollar, and stronger metal prices, I am adding to my core holdings of gold-related stocks.
