Seriously? Apple outperformed these guys by like what? 400 percent last year?

BBY has no real competitor besides WalMart and Amazon. BBY will see 40 soon.

Sorry all, thanks for the clarification. My bad! Now that I've read it through, it all makes total sense. $GILD, $BAC, $WFM, and $VA are my plays for 2015.

I'd say this is a minority view, I've seen several others stating that $GILD was a stock to buy this year.

How about when you are a bit older and can afford it even more? Nothing worse than biting off more than you can chew and then ending up homeless if you lose your job. That happened to way too many American when the housing market crashed.

I love crazy bull stories. Give you hope. Not money. But hope.

Russia is now run like the mob. Saying they are the aggrieved party here is kind of ridiculous.

I think Michael Lewis makes a good point in that the HFT firms take NO RISK. Once they invest in the tech, they basically mint money. And if this is the case, how are they ‘participating’ in the market?

They are simply ‘taxing’ everyone else. Question is, should they be allowed to? And more importantly, can you actually stop them?

Enjoyed reading both the article and the comments, thanks.

Thanks, would love to see more on this topic.
