Watch List Friday, May 15, 1998 (in midst of changing servers that's why you can't click on the watch list)
It is important to keep the watch list in your database for at least 3-4 days. These stocks are all technically poised for further breakout but market conditions might not facilitate that breakout in the next trading session. Some of the more 'active and volatile' issues should be watched, especially the ones on my 'Earnings Plays' watch list. They are the ones with the most change for a really good "pop". Watch the Earnings Play list. Still BULLISH on AEOS, BKE, NAV, LTD,GPS.
