Oil stocks seem to keep crashing further and further, although I guess that is to be expected. Long term there is probably some very good but very high risk money on the table if you can pick the survivors. CHK is a good example of a company I had high hopes for, but only really had/has only short term liquidity. CORR is a stock/REIT I really like right now.VRX will go down in history as my worst stock pick ever.
Took a peek at FCX -- I pretty much got out at its peak. Yikes if I still was holding it.
Finally finished off our Roth contributions for the year. Our accounts are pretty much flat for the year since we use index funds. No real positive news as of late and everyone seems to be waiting on a Fed move.
Does anyone have any insight into 529 plans? We are expecting in April of next year so I figure I need to set one up. My hesitation though is that college could change over the next 20 years and not be as important unless you are going into specific fields. It just seems like a dated model that will be changed and 20 years is a long enough time horizon for that.

I'm personally surprised to see VRX going as low as it is, but obviously there is bias there. Putting myself in the shoes of an outside investor I probably would have avoided it without serious research into the potential legal issues. TRN comes to mind as an analog I invested in. I took a beating for a while before making a good profit.
Momentum is a really powerful force which I said to you GreenFrog, my exact words were "Sentiment should scare you, because that can drive the price lower". If you are a long term investor the day price should not matter. If you'd rather day trade the patterns themselves are pretty classic.
