I read your newsletter and each week the Charts of the indexes always come through as broken images. Any ideas. I am running Netscape 4.6. Why you are aiming a highly speculative biotech I can't possibly understand. Sounds like you have broken that cardinal rule of investing about falling in love with a company! Never love em because you can't ever leave em! Sounds like you are very knowledgeable about the company but it may not be to your advantage to be that close... Just my 2cents

Hi Tom I could use some help with the PCA program. I am trying to check out some historical data on some funds and when I try and paste the data into the PCA trade by trade page excel tells me the cell is protected. Now the instructions for the PCA program says that the date and stock price columns on this page are not protected but mine are. And of course I don't know the pass word to unprotect. Can anyone help me with this problem? I did leave a message on the PCA message board. Larry G

Hi Tom, could you expand on this a bit? After several months of AIM's insisting that I buy more NERX (tiny biotech) I finally gave in this week. However, instead of buying the common stock, I purchased the convertable preferred stock, which is currently yielding about 15%-16%. I went to their web site and a few other places but didn't really find anything. How does the 15% yield work? Is this annually? What are the risks involved here? TIA Keith
