Did you get the number of that truck?

With the gap down this morning, the damage wasn't too great.... Cough,
cough...

I think most of those stocks on the list are solid, good buys.  At least I
didn't buy them on margin and still kept almost half of my capital in cash.
I will be looking for opportunities to add to my positions.  Stocks that I
really like are INTC and CSCO.  Both are having record sales and earnings a
la AMD.  I don't know this one individual personally (he's a friend's
neighbor), but he bought CSCO yesterday and today and will buy more on
Monday and he works for them.  Feels these are tremendous buying
opportunities.  If you stay away from the stocks with no business, no
profits, etc., you should be all right, IMHO.

Meanwhile, we're licking our wounds and looking for an opportunity to buy
more.

Meanwhile, how do I explain to my better half that the first 2 forays into
equities from futures were on the two biggest down days on record. :)  Talk
about the kiss of death.

Good luck,

Guy

Guy,
     I don't know if we are in agreement or not.  I got scared today when
the NASDAQ plunged through the bottom of its Intermediate term up trend
channel and closed all my high tech and finance type positions.  I'm now
only long CBRL and WMT (how's that for high flyers <G>).
     However, I do like the stocks in your list and will be watching for
good entry points.  I'm just not going to rush back in at this point.  I'd
rather lick my wounds and wait for the dust to clear a little.
     I've noticed that your signals are usually right on but sometimes a few
days early so you probably will have a great position here.  Besides you can
add my caution to your list of contrary indicators <G>
     Best of luck!

JimG
