Guy,
I hear you, but I'm sure going to try to do better <G>. I've been
trying to figure out what to do from here. All my indicators tell me the
bear is here, but my gut tells me that we just have to be near a bottom.
The economy is just too good for a sustained bear market.
Therefore I decided to pour over the charts and look for industry
leaders in good sectors with good revenue and earnings growth. I also
wanted stocks that were right at support levels. I came up with AMAT, AOL,
JDSU, MSFT, QLGC, RDC, RFMD, and SCH. I had to fudge on earnings a little
with JDSU, but its prospects are good <G>. I'll post their charts to my web
site http://www.geocities.com/jimginva/ later today.
My thought is to sit and watch Monday and see what happens. Then later
in the week if it looks promising, I'd nibble on one or two of those that
looked like they had turned up but were still close to their stops so my
risk would be low. I'll continue with that strategy until the dust clears.
