Allow me to find myself.

Sadly, my core beliefs are shaken.  I once found myself a staunch liberal.  Yes, leftward far left.  Well, that was college.  I am now long gone, way gone.  Oh wait, I’m coming back.  After tossing myself out of law school and working, I am unemployed.  Sort of.  Every morning I wake up around 6:15-30 ish.  Not by choice.  I have a cute little girl begging me to get up.  Dog that is.  I crank on the ol’ tube.  It happens to be a ‘46 sammy hdtv.   CNBC powers up.  Since June 15th, I have been schooling and under the mentorship (sp) of a seasoned day trader.   This has become my new job.  I am at the doorstep of the market.  I follow two stocks.  The first is an ETF by the name of QQQQ.  Codename: “The Q’s”.  It is an electronically traded fund that tracks the Nasdaq 100.  It isn’t proportional.  Majority of the stock inside of it resemble the likes of Apple, Google, Qualcomm, and Microsoft to name a few. The second stock I track is First Horizon.  They own banks across the country.  A relative told me they bought it therefore I watch it.   So to get back to where I once belonged, here in lies my problem.  Two months of trading education has made more conservative.  It’s not like the Republican conservative.  It’s like, stay out of my markets conservative.  Recently, the government did two very big things.  Lack of financial stock shorting/fannie/freddy bailout.  Enough said.  I still am fairly liberal on everything else.  I guess I find myself in the middle now.
