With all this doom & gloom I thought I'd try and cheer everyone up with a blast from the past - my old song from 2010!
Hotcopper Pie
Lyrics by Stockmaster 86 & Don McLean
A long, long time ago... Before the GFC, I remember How the stock market used to make me smile. And I knew if I had the cash I'd short sell some CFDS, make my broker dance And, maybe, I'd be in profit for a while.
But February 09 made me shiver With every margin call I was delivered. Bad news in my inbox; I couldn't buy any more stocks.
I can't remember if I cried When my broker called about my BLY, Something touched me deep inside The day the stock market died.
So bye-bye, my Hotcopper Pie. Sold my options in PLV, But the buy stack was dry. And them good old daytraders were shorting Crown and BBI Singin', "this'll make my portfolio fly. "this'll be the day I trade CDY."
Did you write the book on shares, And do you have faith in Bulls or Bears? If Bernanke tells you so? Did you get burnt when they drilled empty holes? Can trading reach your financial goals? and can you teach me how to trade ADO?
Well, I know that you're in love with Gold `cause I saw you buying LGL, that's bold! Your broker kicked off your shoes. When your options in BCC took a hit from bad news!
