TV sounds interesting. I am already too overexposed to solar though. I like YGE a lot more in that space, if I were to buy more.

Where have all the AAPL cheerleaders gone? It goes from 75 to 120, and every other post on the boards is about AAPL. Then it drops back down to 75, and promptly goes from 75 to 330 in 2 years. And now I can't remember the last AAPL post I've read...

if you're a noob, I assume you're young. why do you need them to be super safe?
Is this investing or saving? There's a difference.
You'll never retire putting your money in a high yield savings account.

Sold half of my position in apple today. Will probably sell the rest next week after they report their earnings.

Remember when investing in VZ and T that verizon wireless is very profitable, however, Verizon as a whole not as much. Verizon Residential is not what it use to be.

So I have had a position in C citigroup for a while now, but is anyone else looking at it now that its above $5 again for the 3rd time in a week? Because its above $5 fund managers now can purchase the stock, I'm staying long on this pick but I'm curious what others think.
