Thread: Teakdoors stock portfolio

I've done my due diligence on Mosiac, I'm comfortable enough to place those trades (for fun) and also in the real world if I get stopped out over the next few days it wont matter too much.
Dont forget that this thread is for fun and I'm certainly not offering advice here, nor is anyone asking for it either.
Now as this thread is about having fun and making some imaginary money if possible, do you have any suggestions that we might add to our imaginary portfolio?

^Its getting too late to short BB:IX, as it closed down 16% to 42p today. The Govt. bailout price will be between that and 20p IMO.

Sorry, I coudnt find any website that portfolio tracker that could display short "trades". Good call though.

^Oh well, you know, I am not bullish on anything right now, so no recommendations from me...

Pretty bad day for the wider market today, financials reached new lows and dragged the market with them.
Grain prices plummeted and oil fell too, both are bad news for the Ag sector combined with the drop in the Dow means that POT, MOS, and MON gave up some of Thursdays gains.
Best place to be today was SKF financials ultrashort.

should invest in "Cattle & Sheep" that what the Aussie prick said on the telly this morning.Gloating that Oz is desease free. and should make a killing selling beef to Taiwan.

Dump the Mosanto stock - "evil company" !



Monsanto is a Biotechnology Multinational run by Chief executive Robert Shapiro. They spread everywhere they are tolerated in the world seeking to patent everything you eat. They own 90% of all GMO (genetically modified organism) crops in the world, 70% of these being Round Up resistant. The
rest creates an insecticide called BT. They bought 50 major seeds companies (tomato, potato, corn, soy , cotton…) from 1995 to 2005. This post might somehow be long, but you absolutely need to know about this corrupt company and the people behind all this. Everyone on the planet is concerned. Monsanto has been selling PCB’s and claiming their benefits for the environment knowing it was completely false. PCB have been banned in the beginning of the 90’s. PCB’s are present in the air, ground and water. They are for a big part in the well known disease: cancer.
Let’s start by analyzing their best product on the market.
Round Up Ready (RUR); this herbicide has been the number one seller for the past thirty years. (marketed in 74) It will kill every living plant but the Monsanto’s genetically modified. A very good example is their RUR Soy plant. Monsanto’s scientist identified a gene resistant to Round Up. Fixed on microscopic gold particles, these genes are bombarded with a canon gene into the soy cell. Combined with the RNA, it triggers the make of a protein that will create a Round Up resistant Soy plant. You can read an article from Dr Robert Belle on the Round Up technology. He explains their technology affects a key mechanism that controls cell division making them more keen to instability. A cell is not cancerous in the beginning, the principal modification toward cancer is when a cell becomes genetically unstable, this is exactly what Round Up does. In an experiment, Elena Alvarez Buylla demonstrates that flowers have a completely different phenotypes (expression of a gene) depending on the localization of the trans gene. Some specimen look like normal flowers, others present monstrous looks. Once a trans gene is released, with the wind carrying the pollen around, it can go infect any natural crop integrating those new modified genes into the environment.
The FDA ( Food and Drug administration) is in charge of the health regulations in the USA. In 1979, they accepted a law classifying GMO food and natural food in the same category. James Maryanski (1985-2006) the Biotechnology responsible of the FDA at the time admits in a video that the White House made some etc

^ I'm aware of all that and and a whole lot more! I agree that this company have some pretty nefarious operational tactics going on in the background. I dont trade this company in real life for those reasons. For this thread I took some because i can see a good chance of profit for that trade
POT is another company that have similar themes that play on the conscience, however they are not as bad as MON and I do hold a long position in that company in real life.
Do you have any "clean" picks that you would like me to add to the portfolio?

Well it was a wild ride for the Teakdoor portfolio today, at one point we were totally skint and about 4000$ under! This was due to the Ag stocks POT, MOS and MON finding new lows in their correction. Those stocks should now trade sideways for a few days before they move on up and find new highs.
Late in the day a huge rally in the financial sector triggered by comments from Morgan Stanleys Jamie Dimon at the FTIC mortgage conference sent the indexes back into positive territory.
Commodities took another spanking today with copper off 3.8% which means our FCX position lost us about a 900$ today
Oil dropped over 5$ to close at 135.95, that cost us a big chunk of profit in the Ag stocks because they move in sympathy of oil.
Heres the numbers, not a bad day in the end, now we're up 5248$

After a promising start it turned into another ugly day on Wall St, financials companies plunge and drag the whole caboodle with them.
Dow down 233 points/2%. S&P 500 down 30 points/2.3%. Nasdaq down 60 points/ 2.6%

Never mind, we still made money......

So at the end of the day we have 4100$ realised profits and 6086$ unrealised profit sitting in the remainder of the portfolio.

Total profit so far in 5 trading days is over 10,186$ or 342,000 baht.

So that rounds out our first week of trading, 720$ profit today taking total gains to just shy of 11,000$ for the week.
