This morning one of my stocks shot up by 1000% because someone but a buy order in at 121.00 dollars instead of 12.10 dollars.

I didn't catch it in time to get any benifit, but is this kind of foolishness common on the stock market? The unfortunate side effect of this is that it has completely skewed the chart, and it looks like a flat line now except this morning.

I have some extra money that I'm looking to invest. I already have some money in the stock market and i'm looking to diversify my assets elsewhere. I have about $30k to invest. I dont want to put it in savings because I want to be more risky (hence more reward potential) with it. $30k isnt enough to put into real estate or into a business with a storefront. I work from 9-5ish and dont plan to quit my job. Any ideas?

Recently, after being a flat to down performer over the prior 12-18 months, Pgr announced an extraordinary dividend of $2/share and an additional 100 million share buyback plan. This will add shareholder value, and most likely attract new shareholders to their stock. Still, could this attract a buyout offer in this time of consolidation in other industries.

I have a derivative arbitrage strategy I would like to trade. I'm looking for 50-100K and can pay a high level of interest (~10-15% per annum) Should there be losses, if I create and borrow through an LLC, will this effect my credit rating. I understand finding someone to loan the money may be difficult because in essence I am taking no risk.

Since May of 2006, all circulation Canadian pennies from 1942 to 1996 have an intrinsic value of over $0.02 USD based on the increasing spot price of copper in the commodity markets, how could someone be able to cash in on this? If a canadian penny is worth more than twice its value would it not be worthwhile to cash in on this?

Hello,
I'm an American living in Japan with a Japanese YEN salary and the YEN is at an all time low against the dollar right now, which is raising a lot of concern. When I came in April, 2005, the yen was 105/dollar. Now, it's 123/dollar, which means 17 to 19% of my earnings are... gone. (I haven't converted/transferred any of my money yet.)

Obviously no one can answer questions about whether the yen will get stronger or not; Rather, I'm looking for suggestions on what to do with my money. I've read in a few places that the Japanese economy (even though stocks are at a record high right now) is still worthwhile to invest in since it's expected to be on the rise (a bull economy) until 2010 or so.

As an American living in Japan with a Japanese YEN salary, what is the best thing to do?
1) Wait and do nothing & hope for the YEN to get stronger.
2) Invest in Japanese stock
3) Invest in American (or other) stock
4) Other

Ideas?

Everytime I meet someone who says this is not a scam, they always KNOW SOMEONE who it is working for. I've never met anyone who says "they paid of MY house, MY car, and/or I am getting monthly returns. Now, mt wife and I are both E7s in the Army. We both own homes and and between us we have five fully functional vehicles, and one child. In other words we are not rich by a long shot, but we are definitely NOT strapped for cash. We never even argued about money until we went to this presentation. I hated from the start and she made me stay, so I asked a bunch of hard questions and stirred up the crowd. She got mad at me and we have argued for months over this. I have an anger management problem anyway, so I said some things I didn't mean and she has done the same. Anyway this CCg crap caused the biggest arguments we have ever had in 8 years of marriage and 15 years of knowing each other. heres a news story on it: Its a scam! http://www.fayobserver.com/article?id=264290

I have done some brief research online regarding investing in silver. All the arrows point to the price per ounce going through the roof. What do you think has it peaked at 13.50 an ounce or will it rise to the projected 50 an ounce by the end of the year?
