Nice to see this thread back to life again today....wasn't the greatest day for the market...but sorry to say guys, it was an awesome day for me. TIE, RTI, MT, and FPP making some serious noise for me lately. Had a real bad free fall in AVNX but overall was still one of my great days!! thugged out...i've been following NEU for awhile too and it along with most others in the sector have seen major gains in the last 6 months. wish i had bought NEU last year but i can't complain much for buying TIE either :-) still looking for some good mid size energy stocks...any suggestions?? p.s. mansion, i feel like you should invest in mutual funds after you've made your money in the stocks market. since, it is much safer investment compare to socks. but if u hit the right stocks you can make just as much money in just 1 year where as it might take you 10-15 years with mutual funds. so let me make my first million from stocks first and will look into mutual funds lol also, i haven't done a whole lot of research on mutual funds but they do charge me pretty decent sum in my 401k account. if you have any good mutual funds you know of and wouldn't mind sharing.....that'd be cool. good lucks everyone...hope tomorrow will be a better day!
