I've decided to back out of car stocks, and go into dwarfy stocks. Starting with beer companies.

EDIT: Closed the day at position #5 with a 1.42% return of total investments. I feel accomplished.

What the hell bouchart. What the hell.

MEanwhile, I put some money into a bear, and get the expected result.

There's some glitch because a stock I shorted clearly isn't trading at $0 right now.  But I have made about 11% on RIMM so far.

I actually just did this in Accounting. Is the TSX also an acceptable exchange?

I tried to play chess but two of my opponents were playing competitive checkers as a third person walked in with Game of Thrones in hand confused cause they thought this was the book club.

Only because there's something bugged with short sales.

When you close it, things should come out fine. I had the same thing happen to a long, and the transaction worked fine. The only bug is in the display.

Hmm...I've never been a big fan of CCGs - I mean, I did and still do collect Pokemon cards, but I never got heavily into the battling and trading thing.

By definition that makes you a fan since you still buy them.

I'm thinking of joining up, but the zipcode thing has me stumped. Does the game actually use it, or can I just fudge one. I don't live in the states, therefore do not have zip code. I find it odd that it's required to sign up, considering I couldn't find anything in the terms of service that required you to be a US citizen...
