I'm in the black! Only...not as much.
So my horrible RIMM-job is clawing its way back up into tolerable negative territory of --15.22%, while my "maybe the US will make stuff again someday" industrial base stock Corning (GLW) has gone up a respectable 21.52% in under a year. With equal amounts in each I am back in the barely-black again of about +3%. You know, like a CD or savings account interest rate, only with more work, stress, monitoring, and tax liability potential.

However, when you consider my other considered stocks at that time (considered and listed in a spreadsheet on 1/9/09) and their performance as of today:
Apple (APPL) $109, today $198 - almost double
UHaul (UHAL) $34, today $52, 52%
Drew Ind DW $10, now $20.82 - about double
Goldman Sachs $80, now $165 - about double
Food Locker $7.36, now $10.44 - 42%
Hanes $10.77, now $25.50 - double and half again (ok 137%)
Coke (KO) $45, now $57.18 - 27%
Ho-foods (hfmi) $18, now 27.55 - 53%

So I can identify winning stocks, I'm just too stupid to buy them.

I think I played my game for another 4 hours tonight...and when I realized it was after 8 I wondered why. There is nothing more I want to do right now - and I wonder if that's bad.
