Respect the Mag-maaa

Preposterous. Ridiculous. Ludicrous. There are all kinds of words to describe the carnage done to some of the world's best publicly traded companies. But the reality is, like the last homeowners who try to stand in the way of a lava flow, logic has nothing to do with it. You either get out and save yourself, or stay put and get steamrolled by tons of fiery magma.

Simple as that. Simplicity is rarely easy to execute, of course.

Even Potash can't escape the storm. Not cheap, though, even now.

Photobucket
What do you do with good stocks gone bad? Best to wait it out.

Photobucket
This is real strength here. Impressive, but not a reason to dive in.

Photobucket
All the solars fell off a roof, including the best of breed. Not cheap. Not yet.

Photobucket
Mickey D cuts against the grain. Not cheap anymore.

Photobucket
This chart defies the rest of the market.

Photobucket
Interesting that PetroChina dropped while its cousin CNOOC gained.

Photobucket
Not a thing wrong with Disney. Just caught in the tide.

Photobucket
Flowserve takes another hit, but still not cheap.

PhotobucketApple looks cheap, but who dares to enter?

Photobucket
China Mobile? Now this looks cheap. I just don't trust it.

Photobucket
This is beyond cheap. I don't have the guts (or lunacy) to go near, though.

Photobucket
Like Apple, RIMM is another stock that gets pillaged and plundered en masse by the big boys.

Photobucket
Goldman Sachs is tempting below 165. But I'll just watch for now.

Photobucket
When will China bounce back?

Photobucket
Not cheap at all.

Photobucket
Amazon has a tendency to stay below the sand before blooming just a few times a year.

Photobucket
The CEO said the company will do a repeat of last year. In other words, FWLT is entering the strength of its fiscal year.

Photobucket
China still spooky, but I'm watching.

Photobucket
Nike is cheap again.

Photobucket
Value is here, but can MSFT really grow?

Photobucket
I just have a strong belief that life insurance in China will win.

Photobucket
Like FSLR, STP got beaten to a pulp.

Photobucket
Well-run company, but subject to any economic slowdown. I'm real close to dropping Chipotle out of my Top 25.
