We have just closed three weeks of trading this year - one of those a
short week (4 days) due to the holiday. Over these 3 weeks, the
group is up 24 percent while the SOX-X is up 12 percent. Out of the
group of 41 stocks, 38 are up and 3 are down. Two stocks, AFLX and
SFLX, are obviously out of favor and sitting in the last 2 slots. At
some point these stocks will start to "rock and roll" - its just a
question of how long the wait.

FSII is in the "middle" of the pack again, where it resides so often,
in the 13th spot. Actually, with a 32 percent increase it deserves
some praise.

Two of the stocks have over a 50 percent gain in the 14 trading days,
while 8 stocks are up over 40 percent. Twenty five of the stocks are
up 20 percent or more - a good start for the new year.

Below the bottom of the table is a summary of three periods. Two of
these, the Oct/Nov time frame and the Dec time frame have been shown
before. The last period shown in Jan is updated from that presented
previously, and covers the past three weeks.
