Disclosure first, I own 100 shares of this stock, (cautious strategy in current market)

COGT

It is on the move up today.

Cogent, provides automated fingerprint identification systems (AFIS) and other fingerprint biometrics solutions to governments, law enforcement agencies and other organizations worldwide. Cogents AFIS solutions enable customers to capture fingerprint images electronically, encode fingerprints into searchable files and compare a set of fingerprints to a database of potentially millions of fingerprints in seconds.

sounds like a good sector to me!

Yeah, I bailed at 7.60 yesterday and it touched 8 this morning...:mad:

Its too pricey for me at this level, I just don't see much more upside in it right now...so that means it will run all the way to 10 in the next couple of days..:shrug:

Rumors going around that F will get some $$ to avoid bankruptcy; under 3 right now--maybe jump in small with 1000 shares and ride it today??

i've been thinking the same thing about F. it might run if it hits $3.00

it looks like they're gonna get the money but F doesn't need it right now, GM does.

i still have LEA in my sights too but i'm kinda thinking it made it's run with knowing the auto makers would get the bail out.

who knows

:toast:

At 2200 shares that's a nice mid morning profit. My account is set up, just trying to get a better feel for this before I dive in. Bought the wedding band this week... I'd like to start padding the wedding fund with a quick strike...

Hope Vinnie is well and his family.

if you decide to average down, I'd wait until later in the day Friday or even Monday--I stayed out today as I think the market dives tomorrow after the employment numbers come out. The decline this afternoon is just the beginning...:scared

Will be keeping an eye on C as well as starting to take a look at the airlines--oil is dropping like a rock and while the recession will limit air travel, the carriers are reducing capacity and the savings they will see with cheaper fuel should mean some decent revenue and hopefully, a nice bounce in their stock prices...:)

WOW! that was one hellava ride the last 30 minutes. like watching the last minute of a hoops game with a big bet riding.

managed to buy LEA at 1.85 so have 2000 shares at 2.00 ave and am actually up. i had a buy in at 1.45 for F but it only went to to 1.50, i think, and then shot right back up to 1.80 and then sold off to close around 1.65. i have 2000 F. see what happens tomorrow.

i think the market got negative about an auto bail out not happening but i'm fairly certain they will get it but what do i know :shrug:

what a ride.

Jack, the auto talks begin soon, anything positive said should shoot it back up a dime to a quarter I think, what is your target sell may I ask?

I am thinking $3.00 plus and I take a profit:shrug:

i wish i would have sold at today's high for about a break even. i guess i'll watch and make a decision if it gets close again. this market sucks today. i hope you're right.
