a plan sometimes we do a lil changing in ole portfolio ... just to add a lil zest for Larry SBC ... he likes the telecoms. this is offering good entry here at 51.50 with 5 month target of 65.00 enter today ... and put on ignore Dan ... have been watching PIR ... it's out of favor and probably will be for the next several months ... ceptin for a lil pop now and then ... it might make a decent move after the holiday buying numbers come in. Maybe switch this to a boring ole telecom? Larry's HSAC ... the buying was right ... at the time, but unfortunately ... we had a correction for the month after that. Had a great trend up till that time. I would add now. NITE .... lots of bad PR for the entire industry lately caused panic selling. It is the leader though. Be sure and hold, very long, a small portion where the money is flowing: It's going to the Net stocks buy one, don't look and/or ... if you can't resist ... keep the tums handy I am one of those who can't 'chase' them ... I will buy a 'flat' stock and sit. Right now I am long INIT (there is a thread) has much potential also might look at LOOK ... I used to play INSP ... but for some reason it is out of favor ... so have moved on to LOOK, the new search engine on the block am hold for target 70 ... current 20 I am a hold at avg priced owned 18.25 ... ah .. then thre is the October correction ... everyone fears it. well ... from the reading I have done recently on day traders. 9 out of 10 ... won't be needing any tax write offs ... huge losses for the many many newbie day traders. but the question that I have is: Have they already taken the losses ... and sold ... giving them the tax write offs ... or are they sitting on paper losses ... contemplating a loss sale ... yet to come. then ... We had a tech correction July/Aug ... did it preempt October and is done? well ... being a bull .... I tend to ignore corrections and look at them as 'dips' ... so, buy on dips Have a great day all .... and Ron ... you'll probably make a ton of money on your stocks ... being gone all day!! LET WINNERS RUN ... SELL THE LOOSERS sue
