One small group of stocks I am watching is the ISPs...
Smaller ISPs like RMII, FCCN... these seem to be making bottoms on the chart...also seem to be ripe takeover targets. Thoughts?

Yup, Tom. . .Taking a bullish stance on high-techs, despite the noise has turned out to be the correct move the past few weeks. I've seen bigger gains this week than any time since March. . . but its a stock-pickers market. . . each day I look at my gains. . plus 1,2,3,4,5,6 percent in a day. . . then look at the Dow and Naz being negative.

I am beginning to think the advance/decline line doesn't matter as much as it used to. . .traders have adopted a comfort zone in sticking to large caps, blue chips and selected stocks. . . and the smaller long shot undervalued ones get ignored.

And I think this disparity is increasing. . . the highlighted stocks are getting all the volume, and the rest are no longer getting a small part of the volume. . .they are getting next to none. So perhaps the A/D is not as reliable an indicator as it once was.

Betcha a buck [male deer] some analyst makes that point on CNBC in the next week or two.

Paper stocks and airlines upgraded today. . .talk about your leading indicators. . . .I think the market is turning bullish more each day.
