MOO, you are saying value investing feels like it's not working for you? I say that feeling is normal. Buying and holding damaged goods (and, -g- for dented cans- eating the stuff inside) - and doing it over and over again - that is an uncomfortable proposition. (As opposed to buying growth stocks where you get a lot of positives - analysts, media, posters--- -g-as long as such stocks continue to rise).

If you are saying that "your" value investing is actually not working for you, you might think of changing your style/methods. For example and for consideration, it seems to me that every one of the stocks mentioned in '97 or '98 and bought by three different posters on this thread has been profitable. (Although it's true there weren't that many stocks-- I think about 6 or so stocks that got agreement from 3 people.) Kind of early to conclude about 1999 (the stocks may take more than a calendar year to work out), but SLOT, CYM which fit the category (3 thread buyers) have been good this year, MAXS is about holding its own, LKI --oops I see it's actually up today- higher than when it was talked/about bought by posters (mid Aug). Maybe there are others having 3 poster buys. Don't recall. Food in this section of on-sale grocery bin seems to be very tasty and safe though!
