The "Investing Ideas" have two portfolios, one for Shares and one for ETFs.


Each Portfolio have $ 100,000 USD.
Each entry corresponds to 10% of the portfolio, to be fully exposed is necessary to have 10 positions in each portfolio.


"Investing in ETFs" is a medium risk investment portfolio.
In this portfolio are traded ETFs listed on U.S. market

"Investing in Equities" is a medium/high risk investment portfolio.
In this portfolio are traded Equities listed on U.S. market, some Equities with high volatility.

The trading commissions are $ 7.50 USD.

All businesses have a written supplement placed before or a few days after the entry.

Generally, low-risk investments have a higher level of security for investor but tend to have a lower return.
High-risk investments, on the other hand, can bring a higher return, but with a much higher degree of uncertainty, which may cause heavy losses to investors.

Rule:
All entries and exits must be written first in forum and are limited to the next opening, so every business can be seen before materialize.
In practice, this rule makes the results are seen always rounded by default, which endows them complete validity and realism.

Sounds like a great idea! Will you be using your real cash or a "virtual" account?

The AAII Investor Sentiment Survey shows that investors are optimistic.
Using the theory of contrary opinion I decided close all positions.

I will buy

ETFs:

Alpine Global Premier Properties Fund (AWP)
MKT VECTORS RUSSIA (RSX)
ISHARES MSCI BRAZIL (EWZ)


Shares:

BANK OF IRELAND-SPON (IRE)
ALIIED IRISH BANKS-A (AIB)


Brief Justification

Based on the analysis technique, the overall market conditions are oversold.

The AAII Investor Sentiment Survey, revealed in the past week that members are pessimistic.
Bullish: 20.74%, Neutral: 29.79%, Bearish: 49.47%

The Ratio AAII = AAII Bullish/(AAII Bullish+ AAII Bearish) = 29,50%
The Ratio AAII < 30% is usually a good entry point.

The combination of these two factors may push the market higher.

In the short term some technical indicators show overbought conditions.
overbought conditions not mean a reversal imminent, it may take time, but I have to decide in advance between sell or hold, I decide to sell because my certainty is zero.

Clenergen Corporation (OTCBB: CRGE) Closes Terms to Acquire 1.5MW Biomass Power Plant in Tamil Nadu, India

-The first Biomass Power Plant installed under contract to supply 81 MW of renewable electricity in India-
• Press Release
• Source: Clenergen Corporation
• On 8:00 am EDT, Wednesday October 21, 2009
NEW YORK, NEW YORK--- The Chennai-based Clenergen Corporation India Private Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Clenergen Corporation (OTC.BB:CRGE - News), has reached agreement on the terms to acquire a 1.5MW/Hr biomass power plant in Namakkal, Tamilnadu which will be operational by yearend 2009.
This power plant is recognized as one of India's National Demonstration Projects. The plant was shut down in 2007 due to operational cash flow constraints and its inability to remain profitable at a low tariff rate. However, under a Power Purchase Agreement between Power Trading Corporation of India Limited (PTC) and Clenergen India Private Limited, a higher tariff rate has now been agreed The unit is expected to generate net revenue of approximately US$1 million in its first year of operation. In the first phase of its operations in India, Clenergen will ramp up the capacity of this power plant to 10MW/Hr while installing two new biomass power projects: a 16MW/Hr in Tuticorin Tamilnadu and a 64MW/Hr in Karnataka. The total project cost of the new plants has been estimated at US$236 million. Clenergen's Tuticorin power plant is slated to be in commercial operation in the last quarter 2010. The company is proposing to raise US$83 million in equity financing from the Indian stock markets. The 16MW/Hr power plant will require 4,000 acres of land to cultivate biomass feedstock required for its 24/7 operation, of which 800 acres has already been secured under sublease. Local supplies of wood chips will be contracted until the cultivated feedstocks reach first harvest.
Clenergen has identified an efficient system of power generation using gasification technology/gas turbines generators and power generation through Pyrolisis/steam turbine generators. These systems can produce power, steam, hydrogen, chemicals and other important products through advanced gasification and Pyrolisis/combustion steam technologies. The company also produces high-density, short-rotation biomass crops on a commercial scale at a cost of production equivalent to or less than the price of coal (measured in energy terms - MMBtu) using a proprietary integrated farming model.
Announcing the company's plans for India here at a press conference, Dr. Arvind Pandalai, Non Executive Group Chairman, said, "The Namakkal unit, which is entirely carbon neutral, successfully demonstrated the 'anaerobic digestive technology' to process agri-biomass to renewable energy. The unit has already been assessed for carbon credits."
Dr Pandalai added, "Clenergen new biomass power plants at Tamil Nadu and Karnataka will be based on the feedstock of `Beema Bamboo', a grass species, and `Marjestica', a micro propagated species of Paulownia native to China and parts of Asia. The company has partnered with Growmore Biotech Limited, Hosur, for the production and supply of the micro propagated Beema Bamboo. Additionally, Clenergen has licensed a Tree Adaption Process that increases the growth rate of Majestica by up to 40% and will be conducting field trials of the improved strain in Tamilnadu in the first quarter 2010.


What about this one?

Investors who are young can take more risks, and a counselor may recommend actions or funds for young investors. Investors who are approaching retirement age will probably find more profitable to take the slightest risk, short-term investments such as bonds and treasury bills. Another factor affecting investment ideas is the risk-adjusted performance compromise.
