Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

    Money money

    I thought i would make a thread about money where we can talk about things like stocks or other economic issues. While working on my MBA i did a research paper not long ago about economic cycles and i have been working on using that info to my advantage. The info i got was pretty standard stuff but pretty usefull, it dealt with why economic cycles exist and why they keep repeating themselves. Knowing that we are in a down cycle i went ahead and invested whatever meager funds i could gather up in these difficult times and so far so good. I bought afop for .90/share and now its trading at 1.26. My hope is we can pick each others brains here and maybe get some new ideas or info about stocks-bonds-comodities....etc which can benefit fellow members. Obviously everyone makes their own decisions and shouldnt blame each other if a trade doesnt go as expected but having said that i think this could be a fun thread and who knows maybe it will help some of us make money to.

    Buy low sell high. Gold is high, the US dollar is low. Ditch your cash

    The stock market functions on two principles:

    1) Fear
    2) Greed

    Rule of thumb:

    When the general public is greedy, be afraid.

    When the general public is afraid, be greedy.

      What is a good starting amount for someone who is new to the stockmarket, and doesn't have a lot of disposible cash, to enter the market?

        But if the dollar is low and gold is high, shouldn't I sell my gold for cash?

          Gold has inherent value, cash does not.

            If you need cash, of course. I didn't mean you should buy gold when it is high... but find something else to invest in that you think will have value in the future. Investors with cash reserves move to commodities like gold and oil during unstable economic times which drops the value of the US dollar. However, if the US dollar were to crash... it's better to have something you can hold in your hand than a bunch of useless peso's

              disposible cash can mean different amounts to different people. I sugest you look at it as gambling money. For example when i go to the casino i take with me only so much money. This amount is limited to a point where it wont really hurt me much if i lose it all and it will justify a evening of fun. The stock market also is like gambling so i sugest investing a amount that wont hurt you much should you lose it (whatever that amount would be for you). I also suggest picking stocks that you think are gona do well in the longrun and sticking with them for a while instead of selling and buying every couple of days or weeks.

                First rule of investing: invest with money you wont need for a very long time.
                second rule: don't invest all your money in one company.

                Before investing make sure that the money that you are investing will make a bigger profit than when you leave it on a banking account.

                  I broke the second rule but i was pretty sure the stock was not gona go down. As for the last one so long as your making money in the market its a sure thing you will beat the bank returns cause they are pretty low.
