It's half past noon and everything is shitty. It's risky putting all your chips on one hand (tech sector) but when the payoffs finally come it's sweet.

Knowing little about the stock market, it looks like Adobe is getting fucked big-time.

Actually, I'm buying 50 shares in a minute. I was going to buy 25 the other week when it was at $50, but now?

You'd be NUTS not to buy.

Same thing with AMD. I see 2007 as being their year.

People will want new computers to run Longhorn and all the latest stuff, and Intel won't have a cheap desktop 64bit solution in the stores.

Except for the Pentium D's already out, which are both dual core and 64-bit, and the Celeron D's coming soon.

Don't trouble rep with facts, or he might have to self-erase.

We buy 64-bit Dull boxes all the time that don't cost much at all. Rep must build his own

Why do you bother putting money in petty companies like Adobe? Put everything you have on Opera.

Holy crap, why is Adobe down so much?

I think it was an error.
Everything in tech is down today, possibly because of the wide spread effects of oil, but Adobe is looking up. If you buy Adobe, expect a 20% return in one year.

Also factor in the next big PC rush (2007-2010) is right around the corner people. 64-bit everywhere, Longhorn, Apple on Intel, everyone with WiFi, everyone on broadband, WiMAX EXPLOSION!

$$$

Now is the best time to buy Adobe or Macromedia.

How'd you go about buying into these companies? I'm not knowledgeable on all the methods -_-

I don't much care for the stock market, but it wouldn't hurt to at least look into it a little bit. Only thing is, is investing a lowly $200 or so (or something similar) really worth it?

If you have $200 and you invest it with a 20% return, you make $40. It's no way to make a living, but it's a lot better than a savings account. It adds up if you keep reinvesting the returns, and if you get a 401k or something, you get huge tax breaks when you put money in :)

Do you need to go to a stock broker if you want to invest large amounts?

The returns is just the difference between how much you bought the stock at and its currrent price right?

...You can never actually lose any more money than what you put in originally, can you?

Right. But you have to sell it to get them.

No. You might lost most of what you invest, but you can never lose more than you invest.

Yes, you can lose more than what you invest if you short something.
