Seems to have picked up steam. Any thoughts about buying UA?

No, I get that. But I've been watching since Curry et al. embraced UA over the other athletic apparel outfits. Problem is, I never see it go below where I want to buy, so I'm wondering what the gang's technical analysis is on it.

It says it has a P/E of 90. https://www.google.com/finance?q=ua&ei=OxssVaGECef0igLCz4HYAw

Doesn't that seem a bit high?

Three of us had to team up so we could get $8,000 out of the ATM to pay him to wear our clothes for the weekend," Under Armour CEO Kevin Plank told ESPN. "That's who we were and who we are. We find an angle and we go after it, which is exactly what Jordan does." Under Armour has come a long way since then.

WTF? You're angling for stock tips behind an avatar of Emiliano Zapata? This takes your pseudo-liberal corporatism to a whole new level.

"Viva la Causa, Compañero!"

We can't all be Obamacare obsessed kitty cats.

If that's your way of calling me a pussy, you can go engage in coitus with yourself. I haven't even mentioned that legislation since your thread last week on (corporate) welfare. Maybe instead of UA, you should put your $ where your mouth is and buy some hospital corporation stocks.

Your avatar is a cat, isn't it? Someone needs to have his distemper checked!

In any case, I guess your assertion is that liberals can't invest because the system can only be fixed through revolution? That we should live as ascetics until the revolution? If not, what are you meowing about?

First of all, you're not a liberal. Second, you're nothing like Emiliano Zapata. Third, I'm not actually a cat, though I do sometimes feel grumpy. Surely though, if you are a true and loyal believer in the Cult of Eternal Life Through Infinite Spending, you should give all you can afford to a government-approved insurance company.

Well, I'm not sure why you conflated an avatar with a commenter, but you did so first. Perhaps you can explain?

And what can a real liberal, according to you as sole arbiter, invest in? These are your assertions, not mine.

Further, one of us is a closeted conservative and it's not me.

I assumed some degree of consistency, but indeed that was naive. A liberal could invest in clean energy stocks, for example, or lend to a worker-owned farm co-op, but only by diverting some of what (s)he can "afford" to give the approved Obamneycare corporations, which would be heresy in the now established mandatory cult.

You should see my portfolio! But since I have a 401k and my taxes are spent on neocon priorities, what can I do? The system is pervasive, so viva la revolucion.

If you had an ideology, what would it be? And your investments are as pure as that I suppose, lest anyone reading this view you as a rank hypocrite.

What is that ideology, and do you assert your purity? Let me preempt with a loud "bullshit!!" But do answer. It'll be fun.

If that isn't trolling, I don't know what is.

I'm not going to advocate breaking the law, but if you want a revolutionary investment Emiliano Zapata might approve of, consider lending to a worker-owned cannabis farm. They can generate great returns, if they don't get raided fast & furiously by the "Choom Gang." You could even work the land during your free time, to earn an equity stake. Ask your financial advisor for details, and your attorney for precautions.

12   CL   2015 Apr 13, 6:52pm  

What is your ideology and how do you maintain your own consistency? Since you despise Obamacare and corporate insurance and all of their evil works, I would suppose you eschew insurance just to stick it to the man?

Not bad advice re: reefer farm. I could have Mexicans work the land as an agrarian reform platform. I can pay them with dollars from my UA investment.

13   CL   2015 Apr 13, 7:12pm  

And it's trolling to say that your claims of holier-than-thou will be followed by bullshit evidence? So sensitive! Especially since there is a dearth of answers to my poignant questions.

If I were actually trolling, I'd call you Bicurioustoo or something witty. Because, like your cheap attacks, it doesn't further the conversation and is deliberately provocative.

14   curious2   2015 Apr 13, 7:16pm  

In the past when I've answered questions from you, it's proven to be a waste of time. Since your stated goal is to call me a liar, while you boast of your fascist portfolio, I'll avoid further engagement. Troll on, CL!

15   CL   2015 Apr 13, 7:28pm  

Well, you're good at hyperlinks. Too bad it actually shows me responding positively to your comment.

Good day, sir!

If the algos decide to buy it, it's all good. If not, you're screwed.
