Bitcoin hits $1000. Where is it going?

I'm bullish on Bitcoins, from a price perspective and also from a technology perspective. Like many out there, I'm kicking myself for not jumping on the bandwagon sooner. I remember when they were $5 and I was first reading about them. I remember when they were less than $1 per coin, and my office...

Looks like a buying opportunity in BBBY

My Mom asked me about Bed Bath and Beyond recently. She used to be a store manager there. She sold her stock a while ago (missed that big up swing) but thinks there may be a buying opportunity now. I also owned some way back and sold after a small gain, missing most of the big 2-3 year rally here....

Would I Buy Netflix in the $50s?

Netflix lowered their subscriber numbers for the year last night, leading to a big 14% drop in the stock price today (so far). Fellow InvestorGeek Chris texted me asking if I'd be buying Netflix in the 50s. I personally won't be buying any $NFLX stock today, but only because I already own a lot of...

NFLX (Netflix) Technical Analysis

Netflix is another company I'm accumulating stock in for a long term play. Until recently, NFLX was one of those stocks I always wanted to buy into but thought it was overpriced.

Trefis Puts Facebook at $74 Billion

Trefis provides some great reports that show up in my Etrade account. Their analysis is very thorough. I especially like how they break down different business units and how much of a stock's share price is tied to each unit. Trefis values Facebook (based on the limited pre-IPO information they...

Facebook IPO Best and Worst Case Scenarios

Facebook released their numbers in preparation for an IPO, showing 2011 revenue of $3.7 Billion and profits of $1 Billion. Speculation is the IPO will be valued as high as $100 Billion. This would be a P/E of 100. That's high, but then P/E's are not as significant an indicator for young companies...
