Jeff, Being invested only since January in the market, there's plenty beyond my understanding. One item you currently refer to is P/S. I take this to be stock price / sales. If the number is greater than 1 it seems to me an indication of an overvalued stock. Less than 1 seems to indicate sales are outperforming the P/E which would make it attractive to buy. Example: Microsoft P/S is somewhere around 12. At 120/share times 12 gives a valuation of $1440.00. Personally I believe it to be currently extremely overvalued at a P/E somewhere around 50. I thought these type P/E's are what finally became the demise of the Japanese markets. Of course bank fraud played a part also. Can you fill me in to understanding this strategy? If to involved my email is lbrew30461@aol.com Regards, Larry
