Vol, here are some updates on the performance of the low RS/neg cashflow screen.

screen date average return (negative is better for shorts)

4/5/99 -10% (this was hurt by TCI, which went up 268%)
3/15/99 +13% ditto
2/12/99 -21% no big gainers from this month
1/4/99 +3% hurt by SKYC up 264% and AXTI up 167%
12/98 -4% hurt by internet stock TSCN, up 143%
11/4/98 +9% hurt by internet stocks GNET and MARG
10/7/98 +13% hurt by internet stock GNET and by SKYC

as a note, I was not satisfied with the stocks that this screen was picking.
I think there may have been a problem with the telescan screening tool.
