It is definitely worth considering. . . depends greatly on the level of mania leading up to those days. . . Dow and Naz hardly matter when it comes to mania. Speculative mania of last year was a bubble within an internet bubble within a high-tech bubble within an overall market bubble. We have the market bubble, and it is appearing that the high-tech bubble is taking shape. . . we won't get an internet bubble, IMO. . .but yet we are already seeing a B2B/Broadband one. . . .so what we should be looking for is the shy issues that have yet to let their presence be known. . . .especially those with pending news. .. .swing trading can be fun and profitable. . .but it helps to have your plans made long in advance. . . .you know that I insist on being FIRST at the party and almost never attend a party on the late side. . . as all the good dip is gone by then. LOL! Do you guys have a clue what I am talking about? Rande Is
