Watching the Wheels

Im just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go

Early Monday a.m. in SF. The market is open at 6:30 here. Must be strange.

ORCT Action - not sure what is going on with ORCT. I went back and looked and it has really been moving.
  • Oct 24th closed at $7.39
  • Oct 25th, closed up to $8.54 trading 1.7m shares (136k average)
  • Nov 9th closed at $8.84
  • Nov 10th closed at $9.58 on 266k volume
  • Today up to $10.36 on heavy early volume (175K).
That is about a 42% increase in under 3 weeks on strong volume. Hmmm. Didn't I say this stock was going to double at some point?

Copper stocks are dropping, I am losing my seller's remorse for selling PCU. And PTSC has dropped to 66 cents from my sale of 92 cents. Whew!

The day is done... another solid day as my MFI once again trumps the benchmark. Overall up 0.46%. ORCT was the big gainer. FDG was my worst stock, I think it may now be my worst overall. FDG, EZEN & OVTI are all down about 40%. I may sell FDG before year-end for taxe purposes, we'll see.

Here is the most recent lost of 50 stocks over 100m. I like to post them every now and then as I view my blog as a time capsule to some extent. LOL.
