  1. Robert, what is your discount % per month? Right now I get 25% on my evo shift, but I'm looking for a larger discount. Anyone have access to a larger discount than 25% that I could get access to?

     

    And I am keeping Sprint because I have unlimited data and the call quality is better than I had on at&t.

     

    I get 25% as well, the highest discount rate I have ever seen is 28%.

  2. Well for me, I haven't had any major issues with sprint over the 10+ years I have been with them and with them being the most bang for the buck I will stay with sprint for the time being. Of course recently with their data issues it is now becoming increasingly difficult to not be tempted by the competition but with NV I really hope sprint can give us the performance improvements we so desperately need. But to answer your very last question, with everything as they are right now if all the carriers had the same price point I think most of us will be on verizon, I know I would.

  3. Different style here and that's more closely to the style I did at the hedge fund except I was even more short term than this.

     

    Agree % is best way to look at it regardless. BUT you really should focus on your risk/reward and always be shoting for at least 2x the reward of your risk. When reward is reached book at least some of profits and re-evaluate the position from there.

    To me I'm risking them going bankrupt so i need to see a spike to 9 before I start re-evaluating. That or a decent spike on news to sell some...

    Yeah, I have been insanely lucky buying and selling stocks over the last several years all of which where short term investments which kills me on taxes but overall it has been more than worth it so far.

  4. If NV goes right like we think it will, Sprint should be hitting $10/share by the middle of next year if not the end of this one. And I was only able to buy 10 shares, which makes it look grimmer to me when the shares fall like they did the other day. I also purchased 11 shares of Clearwire, but I'm currently upside down more than my trading fee, so we will see where that goes.

     

    Honestly I don't expect their shares to reach that high so soon but you never know. I think I will go ahead and buy some stock right now and see how it goes. As of right now sprints stock is already up another 7.39% for the day. Their stock hasn't seen this much positive activity in a while.

  5. Well, I do quite a bit of investing myself and for the most part I personally don't hold anything long term at all. I monitor all my investments at least every day to every other day. When I bought my sprint stock it was at $3.35 and when it peaked last summer at almost $6 I decided to sell it and looking back at that decision obviously it was a good idea. Now recently its been hovering around $2.30 for several weeks and I really wanted to by some more again. With sprint making these new announcements about network upgrades and nv/lte I do believe that investors and consumers alike will start to regain their confidence in sprint which in turn should raise their stock price. Personally I will end up buying more sprint stock in the next few days, because I do believe that their price will get back up to $4 to $5 by year end.

    7% return in one day is one hell of an investment. I know where you are coming from and I know its hard to not look at it as far as dollars and cents but using percentages is the best way to go and gives you a better understanding as far as growth goes. I have some cd's at my bank right now that are getting a whopping 0.9% apy.
