I don’t feel old. I’m healthy. I look old. But I don’t look at myself in the mirror. Too frightening.
I’ll never be a great tennis player nor a billionaire. I’ll never able to write software.
But there are real joys. My family is number one. Their awesome accomplishments and their continued happiness. And Susan’s ongoing, incredible ability to pull it all together.
I fear for the mess in Washington and Europe. But I have faith we’ll muddle through, without the wars we saw from previous economic messes. Think what happened after the Great Depression. Hitler and World War II .
I’ll never be a great investor. But I’ll muddle through and protect what I have left. I’m still learning how to say No — what brighter people call “risk management.”
I’m learning to do what makes me happy. And I improve those skills.
Would I rather be in a different place?
I fantasize about the fun I had running a business. Bouncing ideas off bright people is thrilling. But I’m too opinionated. And no one listens to an opinionated asshole with less than 51% of the voting stock.
My big hope (and excitement) remains technology. I’m writing these words at 5:00 AM so I can rush out for an early morning meeting with an entrepreneur who has a really neat invention. Will I invest? Will he listen to me? Ego is a big bar to successful investing. It gets a nice boost when someone actually does listen.
Fortunately, I’m still curious. I want to know about anything and everything. I ask the rudest questions. What amazes my family is that I get answers. I think of life as one gigantic blog. Sort of like this one. Dabbling in technology, psychology, health, investing…
I am lucky. I can afford the luxury of dabbling.
As I age, I try to be less of an asshole. I’m learning to find fun in all manner of folks, even ones who are wrong.
In coming weeks I’m taking Susan, the two kids and their spouses on safari to Botswana.
Highlight of each day chasing animals is to have dinner and watch great African sunsets. The sunsets are ultra-romantic.
Maybe I’ll see some grandchildren in 2013 — before I finally croak.
The boom in multi-family housing. Everyone and their uncle is pitching me on their syndicated residential complex. There are a thousand reasons. People can’t buy, because the banks won’t lend. There are lots of young people who needs roofs over their head. It’s cheaper to rent. Lose one tenant. No big deal. Lose one in a commercial office building. It is a big deal.
Every few months, there’s another hot investment idea designed specifically to part with my money. The history of my investing the proceeds of the 1997 sale of my business is a litany of failed new Wall Street investment ideas. Which brings me to:
The business dangerous cycle. A reader yesterday commented that I was a “momentum” investor. That means I like things that go up. And I get out of things which go down. Wall Street is a product machine. Its favorite is funds.
Funds have two benefits for Wall Street — fees and longevity (which means fees forever). Funds were good in Romney’s day. But these days we have regular, fast, dangerous business cycles. A fund will boom in one part of the cycle and crater in the next part. Since we cannot reign in our banks with regulation or legislation, we face a future of regular economic booms and busts. This means if you’re stuck in a fund, you’re screwed. You can’t get out as the economy turns down. . As I age, I favor things which are liquid — which I can sell instantly, if not sooner. Stop loses are still the best way preserve my meager, remaining capital.
French tennis climaxing. The French Tennis mens semi-finals begin at 7:00 AM EST on The Tennis Channel. The Tennis Channel will re-air the semifinals from 5pm to Midnight Eastern Time, and then again from midnight to 6am. Womens finals on Saturday at 9:00 AM EST on NBC. Men’s finals at 9:00 AM on Sunday on NBC. I’m guessing the semi-final matches today featuring Federer, Nadal, Ferrer and Djokovic will be more interesting than the finals. The semis are usually more fun than the finals.
Harry Newton who thanks his readers for their comments yesterday on photo sharing web sites. I finally ended up paying Phanfare $29 for a year’s subscription. The family is happy with Phanfare’s display of last weekend’s wedding. If you’re interested in how to share all those zillion photos on your hard disk (or worse still in your camera), read the comments on yesterday’s site. Click here.
File this away under “Boring is good.” It pays a dividend and keeps on ticking.
While making a killing on this POS has certainly been most enjoyable for the Shorts, at the same time, gentlemen that we are, the Shorts realize that the money that we are making is coming directly out of your pockets. While the freak having to put the kybosh on the big extension to the trailer is the least of our worries, we understand that losing money poses a real problem for some people.
Although you may not believe this, given my perfect 10 for 10 trading this significant POS, I have, from time to time, lost small amounts of money in the market. I know that it is not a lot of fun.
For this reason, I would like to extend a formal invitation to any long who would like to sell their shares in this POS and join us on the short side. No questions asked. No more worries about Merlin and his silly “$45 within one year” predictions… No more belligerent A1 commentary… No more worries about embarrassing comments from the freak… Just good clean, stern but fair, ROFLMAO makin' money fun. It's true, there is money to be made on this POS, it's just the longs aren't “going to finish in it”. Merlin this invite extends to you too, and any other Long (except freak, Mauck and Salim) that rues the day they ever heard of a little POS called MEDC (i.e. all of you)!!!
Happy happy birthday…a gold coin for my investor guru Mr. Harry. Thank you kind gentleman for all the enteraining posts. I love silver and think the Aussie dollar will rebound soon.

Out of it altogether.
Thanks harry.
Gold seem to be at a level from which it bounces. If one were to buy a 'partial investment” of the :Golden Goose: would you suggest a 15% stop for maybe just like 150.00 per troy oz?
Gold doesnt pay any return on investment. Get to a doctor quick if you are buying gold bro. Take a look at MCPad the RARE EARTH stocks in General. They are at an inflexion point broheim.

How to invest or trade
Investors and traders can choose from a wide variety of products based on Russell Indexes to help them better manage their investments.
Passively-managed mutual funds and futures and options products are not distributed by Russell, but are available from other institutions. Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are distributed by Russell as well as other institutions. Investors and traders can learn more about investing or trading these products from the financial institutions or the various exchanges that sell them.
Passively-managed mutual funds based on the Russell Indexes
Many of the largest financial institutions in the U.S. offer passively-managed index funds based on the Russell Indexes. These institutions have created over 121 funds designed to closely replicate the performance of different Russell U.S. indexes. These index-based mutual funds are available to both institutional and individual investors, directly from these fund management organizations.
ETFs
Exchange-traded funds, or ETFs, are similar to passively-managed mutual funds in that they are designed to track the performance of an index. Instead of being sold as a mutual fund, ETFs are bought and sold like a stock. ETFs help make passive investments more accessible to all investors.
Futures and options
Futures and options provide investors with instant exposure to the performance of an asset class or group of stocks by making a single trade. Futures and options are often used as risk-hedging tools and can be bought with the expectation that the price for an index will increase or decrease during the time of the contract.
A future is a contract that requires the delivery of a commodity, bond, stock or index at a specific price at a specific date in the future.
An option is a contract for the option to purchase a commodity, bond, stock or index at a specific price at a specific date in the future.

Do not listen to Harry's tripe. He's way too conservative. Cash is NOT king. Shorting is NOT where it's at. I poured large amounts of money into the stock market in March-May of 2009 and I'm up anywhere from 60 to 85%.
Harry is the polar opposite of Warren Buffett. Ask yourself who has a better track record. (Hint – it's not Harry). 90% of the people who read this blog are fools. Idiots. And morons. You ask why I read it? It's unintentionally funny. As are the comments by the unenlightened morons who write the crap
thank you Harry and happy birthday. Seventy is the new fifty-five. Also, you were very helpful and kind too, now if only you could get rid of the nasty people on this message board. Do you think i took too big of a risk shorting 10k the first time out? you can be honest i have big shoulders (figuratively) and what is going on with Europpe and the Mexican bailout? that is driving me nuts inside from the press releases at cnbc.
Will I get smoked
Thanks for the response. A few points I would like to make.
1. From the dow peak of 14,200 the dow fell in 15% increments 5 times. It had sharp snap back rallies that woulve caused you to insert stocks back into portfolio again. Of course every snap back was short lived. The market reversed and you would have been stopped over and over again losing 15% each time. The loss would have be comparable to the 55%-60% dow loss.
2. The little guys like us have a much easier time with the market making money than a Berkshire Hathaway or other large hedge fund. They have a very limited group of viable investment opportunities, whereas we can invest in just about anything no matter how small or thinly traded.
Would it not be better to buy in small increments during bear markets as it goes lower, say 5% of your portfolio each 500 dow points, and then sell incrementally when the inevitable bull market starts. Or better yet buy larger positions and use much tighter stops of maybe 2-3% and then if you are stopped out, reassess and try again. Your portfolio can afford more 2% stabs then 15% stabs.
f not taking undue risk, investing in this stock seems insane.
Fred is so foolish. Buffet has not had good returns since he missed the internet stocks in 1998. His last good investment was bailing out Long Term Capital with Greenspan in October, 1988. There was some funny business with John Meriwether getting aced out. NO LAWSUITS and no one went to jail until the smartest guys in the room fffff'd up in 2004 via the Enron debacle.
Sammy's gearing-up for his new position as Cucumber Pickler in training at Mori's pickle factory in Queens NY!
He was referred by Mr. Pinkee! Who’s applying for job as Cucumber Man! His job assuming he decides to take it! (No pun intended)Is to stand outside Mori's Kosher Pickles with a big brown barrel around his body wearing green pickle color long underwear! With a Pickle Hat!
He'll be handing flyers, buy one get one free!
Let's all congratulate Sammy and Pinkee on their new positions!
Dont listen to the tribe from Fred 789. He is gian pygmie with a bad haircut. All he ever does is troll me on facebook.
ROFLMAO… you poor pathetic turd, I almost feel sorry for you. It's not like we didn't tell you though! And once again, on behalf of all the shorts… THANKS! I'd like to think that it was your shares that I borrowed to enable me to short this joke. Makes me feel good. Every time I look at the price, I want to laugh out loud. Poor littleralph (literally). Again, trying not to laugh out loud at you!

I made some money Today!
:00 AM EST, Friday, March 6, 2009. My tennis opponent yesterday told me he still has all his money invested in the stockmarket and all managed by Fisher Investments. Last year he lost 40%. He wanted, he told me, to go to cash when he was down 10%, but his Fisher “investment adviser” told him to hang in. Did my friend not understand that his adviser got a fee if he was invested, but not if he was in cash and out of Fisher? Yes, he understood that, but the Fisher man was “so persuasive.”
There are still people in stocks. There are still people (investors and money managers) whose only investment philosophy is to pray for a bottom and a turnaround. Mark my lips: There is no early bottom and no early turnaround. There are a handful of managers who have been able to handle the downdraft. But their results are in line with sitting in cash, i.e. they've been flat. Most money managers (of hedge and mutual funds, etc. ) live in the fantasy world that they're better than Mr. Market. Berkshire Hathaway (that's Warren Buffett) is down 51% since its September, 2008 peak. I figure if Berkshire can't hack it, us mere mortals have little shot.
All this reinforces my inviolate 15% Stop Loss rule. When you're down 15% from the most recent peak, sell. Don't even think about praying, just sell.
Cash remains king. If you're inclined to “invest” 2% of your money, then short the obvious stocks — such as tech stocks, like Research in Motion, Best Buy and Google — and financials, like Wells Fargo, Deutsche Bank and JPMorgan Chase
Harrymeister said the above at dow 6500..SHORT
March 9, 2009 was the bottom of the market. My rule then (as it is now) was sell when you're down 15%. Buy back in when it rises 15%. Had my friend sold when he was down 15% and bought back in when the market rose 15%, he'd be way ahead today. RIMM was $50 then. It's now $10. Best Buy was around $25. It's now $20. The banks are actually up since then, but not by much. Google is up substantially.
Investing is day-by-day management. I wish had sold everything I owned and bought a wide variety of great stocks on March 9, 2009. But I didn't. And few others did also. Fortunately my net worth is up since then.
Thanks for the response.
A few points I would like to make.
1. From the dow
peak of 14,200 the dow fell in 15% increments 5 times. It had sharp snap
back rallies that would have caused you to insert stocks back into portfolio

One final
thought. I can't understand how you could ever invest
in the Agnc. 11 to 1 leverage is pretty lethal. Given your
mantra of not taking undue risk, investing in this stock seems insane.
Screw you Readie, I am making a mint on the Agency stock. They are hedged, not like jpm but good hedges. I believe they has Meritits Whitney on board an consultant with economic forecasts. She called the City Group loss back in 2007

Harry, on the Warren Bugget He is not an entrepreneur like I am — or even a productive member of the business community like the traders is — can leave one open to all manner of insults and disparaging comments, which you do all the time. Buttet is a “exploiter”, a “money grubber”, perhaps even a “Profiteer.” If ever the term “necessary evil” had a home, it is in the tight fists of those who thrill in bashing good businesses such as rimm and BBY and Fist Solarplexis.As James Chesher and Tibor Machan point out in their recent book, _The Business of Commerce_, “One does not become a cultural hero…by constantly bashing a stock; you should become a philanthropist and you will then perform excellently in business.” Bugget has been influenced by the pragmatists and utilitarians who have “defended” business and capitalism for “providing the greatest good for the greatest number of citizens. This in turn creates a cultural atmosphere in which Bugget view free enterprise with disdain, suspicion, and self-righteous condescension. At best, your presence here is on par with getting one's tooth drilled: unpleasant but something which one must toleratethink about itShaun Francis Anido
Remenber Time stands still for no Man or Woman! but as for the Animals who bash this stock Time will be your demise as now you have to cover your short positions!
I've heard that Sammyg2000 bought poor mans puts at $10 and that the stock needed to drop 8 points for him to make a $1.00 profit per x number of shares he controls! Does Anyone know is that True?
Why would anyone do that? It Doesn't make good financial sense?
Heck if he had just bought X number of shorts at $10 he good of made $4.50 per share last week x number of shares!
The pantherdude, Firm but always on the money!
Lets all be kind to one another today!
Dnp tickles my fancy. Trading at a 25% premium. I must say, I have pulled in all my short, and looking hard at the long side. In fact, radio shack looks great for a bounce, and I think there is money to be made there. The fun thing will be watching the forty puts owned by sami the perv wither away, with that wide spread keeping his from doing anything. I keep checking every day to see if the rat covered, but he hasnt. My guess is he is long the stock now, because he is no fool.
Gimme a call some time.
Harry,
Know you love SSD drives (no, I am not buying one for you) so check out Amazon's deal of the day for today. Comments are all indicating that this the SSD deals are good prices.
I don’t understand why anyone reads this horrible blog. It offers bad advice and is poorly written. I want you to spend your 70th birthday thinking about this, and maybe decide to stop doing it.

See your doctor quick. You are suffering from a nauseating dyspepsia, spreading such bile.
Leaving aside the fact that you are utterly wrong in each respect, the logic of your position is hilarious.
Why do you bother reading Harry's blog, if you feel this way?
I pray for you enlightenment, but without your insight into your own problem, without much hope.

Hey you limey, you see a docktor quick four your deimentia.
I read Harry's blog for many different reasons. Investments, nice pix of vacation spots, explanations of cool gadgets, and cominserating over the mkts.

for every complicate question there is a simple answer that is always wrong. Making money in the market is hard and henry's inviolate rule is for simpletons.

My inviolate stop loss rule may be for simpletons (like me) but it works.and saves money. What else can I say?

Happy, happy, Harry. I prefer to be referred to in the more biblical way: 3 score and ten. We are now in what I call
the Legacy years: taking stock, being content, seeking self realization.
Have a great birthday Harry…enjoyed your column today…75 is just around the corner.
Happy Birthday Harry – My birthday is also Sunday, #59. Any words of wisdom looking back to when you turned 59? I retired (I hate that word) two years ago, live off of & manage my investments.
Hi Harry,
Best wishes for you and your family. May you have grand kid soon and happy life every day.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
Happy Birthday, Harry! As a 37 year old I feel that we are kindred spirits with a similar view on life. You are a terrific role model and I appreciate you taking the time to write your thoughts every morning so we can learn from your experience. To that point, you know about my previous venture, Exclusive Resorts, a terrific real estate concept that arguable was spoiled by private equity and the economic collapse(it is still a going concern). I'm launching a new Residential Real Estate investment focused on assets in the Western US where market inefficiencies exist. I know you've participated in numerous funds(Broadway, etc), Trust Deeds in CA, etc. Would love to hear your thoughts tomorrow! Cheers!
arguably(sorry for the typo from my iphone)
send me some more information, please.
Harry,
What made you choose BOTSWANA? My wife and I are looking to go on a African Safari in February. Do you have any recommendations when planning for a Safari – I remember you going on one a few years ago.
Send me an email through the contact on top and I'll left you know the logic.
Happy Birthday, Harry. As you remember, mine is also Sunday. I'll raise a glass to you! -kz
And I have raised one to you. You're great adventurer, in business and in life.
Happy 70th Harry. I thank you for your presents to me each morning… An Opinionated look at the world as it is.. As another South end of a North bound Horse I understand and enjoy your insights and thoughts. Have a great weekend party.
Happy 70th. We are fortunate. Now apply for SS!
got it. But ain't much. Medicare is better.
Happy 70th. Keep the humor. It's great. That has never changed in your voice.
Have a happy 70th Harry. You are blessed. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you and Susan will see the next generation soon… as you have said often, it is the one, true 'perfect investment'.
Mankind stock is flailing
Harry any comments on MNKD….its being ejected from the Russell next month…..dam ugly stuff
That was an idea that my inviolate stop loss rule kicked me out of a long, long time ago and I've never returned. Should have sold it short, but didn't think that way then.
