Jewels from my eighty-something neighbor at the mail box:
She: Just saw “Force du jour”. Camera work was great.
Me: Probably “GoPro” stuff.
She: What’s that? I explain. Should I buy the stock?
Me: I beg off saying that someone on TV said some bad stuff.
She: I don’t care about what those idiots say.
Me: I apologize for mentioning it. (She knows I’m a technician.)
Me: It’s in an uptrend.
She: Now you’re talking*
She: Thanks. BTW, I just bought another 200 shares of AAPL for my nephew’s college fund.
Me: Nice Aunt!
* She attributes most of her investing success to IBD and a MACD book.
