ONT, BVX, and CSGH
ONT is a video compression company that owns a video decoding hardware company (Hantro) which positions them to unify video platforms across cell phones, TV set top boxes, and computers (YouTube, advertisements, movies). They are a very risky investment but a company I made 100% on in the past and they have a potentially bright future so I will continue to watch them.
BVX - Recommended by a good source
CSGH - Chinese lithium batterys, kind of a gold mine if everything I read on the various Yahoo Message Board posts are half true.

Post on TheBullTrader.com
After reading one too many retail investing geniuses post comments on their god haven, mine too :), regarding the continued depression of SIGM's stock price; I have decided to write some "inspirational" teaching advice.
Do not be a hero: In other words, the stock market is not real life. Maybe one out of every thousand times something falls from the sky randomly, it will be a "falling knife." It could be a quarter your high friend flips at you because you're Jewish, or a nug - most likely the object that came from the sky is not a falling knife.
Do not be a hero, DO NOT try and pick a bottom. I have been burned SO many times trying to be a hero. The problem lately with retail investing, particularly uneducated folk who consume Cramer (I like him), but more importantly Financial News on Corporate-owned media networks, is that trends are followed too strongly. People sell rapidly, and people accumulate rapidly. Albeit, institutions have the master numbers, secret codes, power, knowledge, X amount of years of history in the business, and can profit to the nth-dimension. In a healthy market it is easy to become complacent. However, notice how even when Cramer talks about how volatile the market is, he is constantly recommending new stocks. Market manipulation I speak of is NOT NECESSARILY due to evil people, but as I have seen in so many world and social conflicts, structures of institutions are the overarching, not inherent, powers that guide human behavior and affect human weakness. This is why I could never decide between Psychology, Sociology, or Anthropology (Evolution).
So this is what I posted:
"Recession? Media is a powerful tool. The world markets should not be hit so heavily by what the non-ignorant have learned in the recent years, and especially over the history of the United States of America, how powerful an influence the dwindling-recession ridden country, which functions fine, for middle-class media consumers’ concerns, has on the stock market.

Maybe I am at fault for investing in ADR’s and not buying foreign stock but market manipulation, not “investor panicking” plagues retails investors’ minds. How can this amazing company go down? How could Apple, the future of computers, stock go down so much? To make sure you guys know I am at least partially right, I will assert that Apple is going to go down further, with the market, $100, maybe even $80."

The freaking market!...
The freaking market!!! dot, dot, dot...
Like I said in my last post, a month ago, the market would jump up temporarily, and then continue to drop. I do not understand why I can not follow my own rules, as I waited a month, and then bought positions in some of my favorite companies, IMMR and VDSI. IMMR announced a less than perfect shiny-quarter and got punished 10%. VDSI took 5%, I bought it, and its heading back to its low-support. I am lost, if anybody wants to help me, you know where to find me :)
I know there is faith in this market, although I am losing a lot of money having faith; religion always confuses me!

Market prediction...
I see a large accumulation happen in the next few weeks, possibly a month or more, but definitely a large sell-off to test the lows and then the market may head back up...?

McDonaldization
I watch a few whisteblowing documentaries every now and then and reading the CAPS board I see the same mechanism being built.
The same way that mainstream financial media networks have "experts" saying a recession is going to happen, many people continue to buy. Bull's and Bear's is just a binary opposition. Why fight the red? It won't stop, not in the name of profit for someone or something... marinate on that though. lol
Ok, so about McD: The company name and brand is first class around the world from the storm of McDonaldization throughout the rest of the world. I feel the brand is a bit tainted in the US but has the power to take supply the rest of the world with greasy "nuggets" of Chi-liv-foot-cken and fried frozen french fries. And even in my enlightened state I still fall weak to the indulgence that, how I will not know for many years, may affect our ancestral bodies in a bad way. May the biotech rally race on!!! ISIS and DNDN?

On2.com
On2 is taking new shape as they make a trendy website and push their codecs. Intellectual copyrights are frickle in a world economy driven so heavily on profits. I wish for ONT to post stellar profits which would bring the stock back to the $3 dollar mark.
I can not get over mobile video and they just got licensing for the iPhone, etc. I am going to buy a pile under $1.00 and sell when the stock jumps up on good press.
