Hi Bruce, The problem with my personal cash reserve is that I've made many small trades, but overall there's still several stocks that have not participated in the SELL side of this rally. Net worth is back to about break - even for the year. Cash Reserve has risen nicely considering that its low was 5% of a smaller number and it's now about 9% of a much greater number. November brought on another 9% increase in my personal account's total value. Back to back, October and November were probably a couple of the best months I've had (but we have to remember that the pendulum was pretty far out on the BEAR side at the start).

Stocks like VLSI and IDTI have only returned nominal amounts of Cash Reserve to date. They are up substantially from their lows, but are now just starting to participate in the FUN side of AIM. I have many other stocks that fall into this arena. MXF is in the recovery mode, but I've only managed one 100 share trade there so far.

All in all, I need the market prices of my stocks stuck in the HOLD ZONE to rise a bit more to trigger some selling. VLSI tripped its first Sell trade so far at $13 the other day. My cheapest AIM buy was at $7-9/16, I believe. Good news is that it's way up from its lows - bad news is that it is strapped for cash still.

I think that after the Tax Balancing Act is over for the year, some of these smaller cap stocks will start to blossom. I'm anxious for the next harvest to begin!!

Brest regards, Tom
