Email question about:
Setting Price Targets
and Sell Orders...
Q:
With a market that
swings so wildly, what
are your suggestions on
setting up price
targets? Do you
recommend setting sell
orders in hopes of
locking him some gains,
or do you think that is
too reactionary? What is
a good method for
setting price targets?
Thanks for everything
you do.
Jim:
We are using yield,
okay... because,
remember, we're buying
stocks that are either
recession proof -- and
there were going to use
may be a 3 to 4 point
scale -- but I prefer
buying the stocks with
accidentally high
yields, so you start
when the stocks at 3.5%,
and then to 4%, and then
to 4.5% and 5%... and
then you buy a little
bit at each level, and
then you roll it right
back up... it's called
trading around a core
position... I mention
how to do this in
Real Money: Sane Investing In An
Insane World... my book...
but I've got to tell
you... I didn't talk to
yield them... I talk
yield now. That's the
way to do it, is with
yields.

Email question about:
The Russian market and
the ruble's effect on
the stock and bond
markets...
Q:
Russia is engaged in a
slow the devaluation of
the ruble. This makes me
wonder... what if we
were to devalue the
dollar? What effect
would that have on the
stock market? What about
on the bond market?
Jim:
Now listen... all day
today, I've listened to
people who say... oh the
weak dollar is bad, oh
the weak dollar is
bad... The weak dollar
is great, okay... the
dollar got too strong.
We got to maintain our
competitive advantage.
Those who come on (TV),
and say that they are
worried about the weak
dollar ... what they are
worried about is that
there are going to be
too many people thrown
out of work. What they
say... a weak dollar
keeps people at their
jobs... On Mad Money, we
want employment... we
don't want
foreclosures... we want
people to keep their
jobs. That's why we like
the weak dollar.
