Hi Steve: I Think your right, and will likly buy in "IF" she don't outrun me again tomorrow..I'm waiting on most all buys..( like a lot of others ) to see what the fed does..most sure they will up the rate another notch..could cause a dip in prices..hopfully just a dip..may wait till thursday or friday.. -------------------- I know you'v been to Yahoo..have you set up the "My Yahoo" option man it is neat..I'm pluging in all kinds of portfolios.."sectors" not just the stocks..but the mutual funds..giving each sector a seperate one. Lrg Grth , Lrg Valu, Mid...Sml..Bonds..Jap.. you know what I mean..then each day I can track and compare sectors..as I got it doing a total on each one..man it is neat beats the heck out of pointcast. I was useing a stock tracker to do this..had to run the program seperate for each basket.. Yahoo is doing them all with one go..still setting it up but from what I see so far this will help me screen and focas on sectors that are moving. All sorts of other gimics too.. can find the funds that are backing up fast..then flip to morning star and see what their top holdings are ( good way to find shorts )..today MIDCAP VALUE did best , last week Small Value did good, And Larg GRTH did good ( Small growth did alfull )..I think you have to watch the Mutuall funds ( sector wise ) to get a feel for whats going on the market has been driven by money ( savings ) going into funds so the funds that get the most inflow..have the most to invest, and thoes "dollars chasing the stocks drives up the price" this has more to do with price runups than the actual condition of the companies involved..in a way what I'm looking at is almost a trailing indicator..but it's not trailing very far..and has enough momentum that it's useful..if I could get the actual inflows into the mutual funds every day..I could come up with a leading indicator at least for the sectors.. like if you knew DGAGX got the most money yesterday..all you would have to do is look what DGAGX holds and buy that..if you knew which ones had the most refunds or withdrawals..you would have the key on what stocks to short..man I would love to find out how to get the inflow/outflow of money to the mutual funds..you could put a hurt on this market if you had that info.. Bet someone does too..I'm digging <G> Jim
