Yea still own it, just a little though, kinda forgot about it. It is a tough one to figure that is for sure...Right now I am sticking with the bigger names, they seem to be the ones Wall Street likes. Would be a buyer of TCMS under 4 on no news though. WG was a big disappointment for me, got out at 6 1/2. Just no interest couldn't even get one you guys to post about it :-(. For a big cap laggard BHI looks good here IMO (very short term thinking). Still have BHI for my long term account. Have to agree with you that year 2000 looks real good for these companies as long as oil stays in this range... Rory

Mike Perhaps the market has TCMS confused with these two, which have been, uh, kinda weak.<g> quote.yahoo.com The construction guys really haven't done squat in this rally. There is such a lack of info on TCMS it is hard to know what to think. Forecasts seem to be for break-even operations this year. Last I heard, earnings release was next Tuesday. That should give some insight into current prospects. Based on P/%S and P/%B, it always looks really cheap. They just need to get their margins headed back up to where they were in 1997. John
