Making a huge gamble on earnings with LNKD in. Just bought a bunch at 199. Hope I dont lose my shirt here! Its trading at an extremely high valuation (120) but this company has an extremely bright future. Far better than Facebook IMHO. Lets see if they smash earning like NFLX!

yeah i shorted FB yesterday didn't really move though. I expected their earnings to be worse than that. I like this LNKD bet I might follow you in on it.

Yea they missed analysts expectations, leading to a big 10% drop. They made 75%year over year profits though. Sucks but I was playing with house money any ways. AMD and DDD have treated me extremely well these past few weeks

I have a stupid question. Are there any defense firms publicly trading on the stock market? Anyone with a brain knows that World War 3 is right around the corner with North Korea threatening us and the current government being obsessed with Iran.

It seems smart to buy defense stocks now and sell when there's a big war. Is this common sense or plain retarded?

The latter. If World War 3 goes down, the last thing you will care about is how your stocks are performing.:heh:

Northrop Grumman, boeing, Raytheon, general dynamics, Halliburton. Companies who have contracts with the government in aerospace or oil. There's plenty of them. Very cyclical, The wars are winding down.

Edit: buy boeing

If a war happens it will most likely take place off U.S. soil (like in the middle east). I seriously doubt there will be tanks rolling down park avenue.

There is also LMT (Lockheed Martin) which also pays a 4.57% dividend. If you want to buy an ETF with most of the names PPA.
