Well all, I'm putting in an order now to sell my Mar 17 1/2s at the market tomorrow morning. Then the Mrs. and I are off for Las Vegas and getting away from the real world. I plan on not checking any tickers or papers till Saturday. Plus, I figure the odds down there are better than those we get from the MMs, and at least I'll have fun losing money <g>.
On another topic, in response to posts 10202 and 10203, I got this letter back from AIM funds. A better than expected response. (Of course, I'm in the process of closing out my AIM fund since it has underperformed it's sector peers for the last few years.):
Dear Mr. Spitzer: I have received your message requesting that we research THQ Inc. for inclusion in our small cap funds. Thank you for bringing your concern to our attention.
I have forwarded your recommendation to our Investments Department. As I am sure you are aware, our Fund managers use a very clearly defined discipline to select investments for all our funds, and I am certain they will examine whether THQ meets their investment criteria. Again, thank you for bringing your concern to our attention, and for your continued participation in The AIM Family of Funds.
If you have any questions regarding the above information, please call me or one of our Client Services Representatives toll free at 1-800-959-4246 from 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Central Time. We will be glad to answer any questions you may have. Thank you for choosing The AIM Family of Funds. Sincerely,
Mary C. Bertram Correspondence Representative |
