Random thoughts...put in a stop for half my FNDTF shares at 41.5. I am still very high on this company, but there is a yawning chart gap down to 38 which I don't want to ride down with all my shares.

If FNDTF slides I do the right thing and sell half after more than a double, and let the rest ride in the core portfolio. If FNDTF keeps going then no harm done. Maybe I can sell one-third at 54 for a triple. Look what EPAY did.

MXTR - has quietly crept up from 7 to well over 8 recently. Anyone who wants to hold MXTR long term should think about getting in before earnings. A good report could put us back in double digits.

CMGI - look at the chart and you see that CMGI regularly retraces 50% from big runups. If you measure the latest run from 180 to 320, then we need a 70-point pullback to 250 to complete the pattern. My remaining stake is small so I am not sweating daily changes.

The thread is staying up on the Hot List. Thanks to all who are adding value and making this a profitable forum.
