Want a good safe stock? Buy Ford stock. IMO it will be a good one to hold and not even watch. Happy investing! KZAP

Here's a sexy idea to think about - I just got an email on this and it got me thinking about what I see everyday.. What about Latinos? They are populating the U.S., becoming HIGHLY popluar in Music, movies, etc in the US. --Ricky Martin, Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony, and a lot more I can name off. I know it's kind of werid to tie together, but anything dealing with Latins??! FM

I absolutely agree that the sex appeal is a missing element with issues aimed at servicing older americans, in general. But not in EVERY case. I am thinking broadly here. BUT...regardless, sex appeal is not all that drives a stock alone. You mentioned wanting to find stocks while they are small anticipating great growth in the future based on future trends/needs. I think this sector (geriatrics services) is a prime candidate. How sexy is steel, or Proctor & Gamble, or Utilities. All these issues make folks plenty of money. And those who got in early on the trend made a killing. We just need to adjust our focus for what issues we want specifically. We need some factors in a list, some characteristics to screen with. This might be enough of a topic to occupy a new thread???? Lynn & FM's future stocks! : ) JMHO
