Up, up, up!

August 14th, 2009 | No Comments | Filed in Investing

For the first time since, well ever if i remember correctly, all of my stocks are in positive territory. I am making money on all of them but there are two that require extra attention. American International Group (AIG) and Fannie Mae (FNM), these two bad boys have a mind of their own and if they try to put me in the losses column once again I will sell then faster than they can say bailout!, nothing personal, just business.

It has been a few weeks since my last Weekly Investing report but have no fear because I am back. The market must have liked the fact that I was away because it sure has been on a good ride. As a result of that my account was up $2387.00 and I am thinking that maybe I should go away again, just kidding. Lets hope this week is just as good as last, I do need a new pair of shoes you know.

I had no trades last week trades.

My investments, 50 Dow Chemical Co (DOW) shares, 75 American International Group Inc, 100 Allied Irish Banks PLC (AIB) shares, 400 Citigroup (C) shares and 500 Fannie Mae (FNM) shares.

Total Money Balance $      53.60
