Bretsky- In regards to msgi,it was short term non-IRA operating cash, so I was satisfied with my 330% return. I have not done a complete longer term DD. on this company, but I'm sure it will do just fine under DW's wing. Goto SI,RB,Yahoo chat lines on MSGI to help you do DD on this subject, as well as co. sites, news releases. In regards to TLAB's ,I took 60% of my TLAB's, cashed it out and went to CMGI in my IRA. I feel that Tellab's has potential of 40-50% appreciation per year and CMGI has potential of 300-600% per year, but with a higher beta. I'm not sorry, since Tellab's has shown 66% YTD.,and CMGI has gone up 268% since I bought it on 1/7/99. Steve Harmon's advice column on 1/5/99 in regards to CMGI,got me started. I was ready for some diversification after Tellab's drop to $31 last June (after Ciena mess),1998. Did you just have a family addition too? Good Hunting DAVE DICKERSON |
