Hi Bob, Got this information from Pat O'Neil's Stockbook website. He runs the Loring Fund which is for big ticket investors only. It has done over 60% for the last 2 years. You might want to enter your portfolio and check it out vs his criteria. The Big 10 Questions Who's in charge? Talent or a Pretender? Is it "sexy"? Cement or iron company stocks are not talked about at a party. Is the stock followed nationally? (Local stocks are long shots). Who are your partners? Ask your company if any quality mutual funds have invested. Can they make payroll? Do they have enough cash to keep things going? Can they compete? Can they expand their market share despite cheapster copy cats? Can they make a profit on EACH transaction? This is the critical foundation of everything. Are they profitable NOW? They should have 4 straight quarters of improving profits. Can they increase sales? Stock prices will follow profits (Up or down!). Can talent survive growth? Will getting "real busy", swamp their quality? 10 = Buy and hold. 9 = OK but slim 8 = Very dicey 7 or less = No CAUTION - The #1 reason that people lose money when buying a stock is that they fall in love with the "story" and don't respect and monitor the FACTS! Hope this helps Bernie
