yesterday and RDC and SLB were stopped out today. I want at least a
partial replacement from the hot financial sector and my pick is Citigroup
(C). C had a CANSLIM cup formation breakout to an all time new high
today. I'll open a position tomorrow morning and set my initial stop at 62
3/4.</FONT></DIV>
