Yahoo Information; Stupid Stock Tricks.

Most of the artwork that I'm showing here is available for sale. If you click on the image, you will be transported to the website. I don't get anything for putting them here, but if I'm going to use the image, I feel like I should allow folks to access the product!

In this post, I want to share with you two things. Thing 1: some YAHOO tools that you might find interesting. I've been posting the top leaders/laggards with the WSJ summary on a daily basis.

YAHOO information. I was futzing around the site a bit more. I will say this....YAHOO has a very impressive industry site. I've shared with you before that they have a detailed industry list. Here's some items that I recommend that you click on and familiarize yourselves with.

• Drill Down (this is for Agricultural
• Industry Browser --you have to go to the far right to find this. I only stumbled upon it today. This is a drill down of all the stocks in the sector that you can sort and download into Excel.

Stupid Stock Trick. SYNL. I generally do not buy stocks ahead of earnings, but in this particular instance, I did not look at when they were reporting.

This position was down as much as 37% today. I didn't sell. I didn't buy more. I did kick myself.
