A friend of mine thinks Charter Communications is going to the moon. FWIW. (CHTR). Certainly wouldn't be a terrible idea.

I also notice Cognos (COGN) has a major breakout. If you like charts you will like this co. - one of the top 3 or 4 business intelligence software companies. Not outrageously priced at 28 times earnings.

Of course Cognos could be like Open Text - gone about as far as it can go. Who knows.

There's the extent of my ideas.

I notice that INSO has largely recovered from its awful quarters & lawsuits (again have a look at the chart). The company dumped one of its divisions, which the market likes.

Two more high-risk/high reward fun type stocks are two which end in "ix".

Both look "hot" with high multiples and strong balance sheets... both have had a lot of detractors but one or both could be poised for rapid growth.

Applix - Unix / Linux / decision support ... APLX
Citrix - Application Server Products ... Windows related .... CTXS

Can't really understand why Citrix is powering ahead with all the negative market sentiment re: Windows, but it must be something to do with strong earnings & strong margins.

An interesting OTC:BB play is a company that will be familiar to many SI'ers - FreeRealTime.com - don't do anything special but strong brand and intelligent partnerships. FRTIE - I have no doubt they'll be on the Nasdaq NM one of these days...

There's a few ideas!
