Great day for the market today. Many of my picks blew away the street's earning estimate.

HRH reported a record quarter profit jump and jumped up 1.30 something during the trading.

MSFT, after months of waiting for the biggest software company in the world to make a move, it finally up well over a dollar today.

KSWS will be coming out with their earning report on the 28th, keeping my fingers crossed.

"Those who say money is the root of all evil, don't have any" ....muwahahahahahaha (evil laugh)

Shit, haven't been posting any comments in a while. Sorry guys. Anywayz, scottrade offers a special deal that is 7.00 flat on all trades if you have 25k in their account, so it's a pretty nice deal.

Moving onto the market, as you all know, I am not a day trader, but rather semi long term. All goal is just to get positions in solid blue chips companies, while picking up a few other good companies and sell them when I can make a nice profit. I been buying shares of different industry to try to spread out my portfolio.

I got LMT a month ago when it was near its 52 wks low of 44, now it's around 46.

My newest buys are FDS and KSWS, both have made some nice gain since I got it.

LH is finally moving up, I got that a while back. It's a good stock, with a very low p/e ratio.

HRH has been hit hard two days in a row, and I have no clue why, it might just be profit taking since it's closing in on its 52 wks high. I will hold on to see if support will start forming and push the stock up. Low p/e ratio as well, around 18.

I got position in IMDC for about a week, and the stock just took off, made my nice profit of 700.00 within a week and bounced.

That's all the update so far guys, once again, i will do my best to post some new stuff but just been too busy the last few weesk with taxes and all.

I use Scottrade as my discount broker, it's not the best out there, I definitely think they can do a better job with their online platform, just looks kinda outdated. However, in terms of pricing, if you qualify, it is 7.99 flat on all trade, market and limit orders. Otherwise, you can probably find other discount brokerages offering 10 to 12.99 flat.

So, i guess it's pretty safe for me to assume that the market hasn't been too good to many of us, but i think everyone knew a correction was going to come and if you happened to have gotten into the market at the right time, you can probably withstand the downturn. I got rid of many of my smaller cap stocks beginning of this year so that has helped reduce the damage.

My HRH has been a clear winning so far. It went as high as 38.00 and I sold about half of my shares to take in some profit. LH hasn't been doing as well, down a buck or two, but we will see how it turns out, probably just looking for some support to push it up again.

If you have money on the sideline, might be a good time to do some research and possibly picking up a few stocks that are in the bargin bin again. I am still a big fan on medical/health care stocks. In particular, medical supply companies. I just bought position in IMDC, they are a medical supply company in the plastic surgery/reconstruction field. I am kinda betting on the industry and know little about them. Double digit growth are forecasted for the next 5 years. P/E at mid 30, a little higher than I would like, but it's a price I am willing to pay for now.

I also got some other stocks which I didnt look too much into, but they all might be good potential good buys:

CBT, DP, QLGC, PDX, PAYX
