John, I have read a bunch of current posts (maybe 1000), the header, and the book. Is there another manual I am missing? If you've read that many posts and don't know the difference between the manual and the book we haven't done as good a job as you give us credit for. :) Seriously, the book is commonly referred to as the manual. The latest version is the revised manual. I'm not ignoring your question about lists of companies. I'll let Frank or Justin explain the purpose of the G&K and W&W indexes. I'm not comfortable that I understand all the implications, other than all the positive returns, of course. :) --Mike Buckley

John, Welcome to our illustrious thread. the manual is the book The Gorilla Game By Geoffrey Moore. Latest version approx $22 including shipping from amazon.com. Without reading it you wont know what we are talking about with guidelines for a gorilla and stages like bowling alley, tornado, etc. Freeus

John: UnQle FranQ has decided that the Gorilla, King, and Prince with an Attitude Index will be re-evaluated at the beginning of the calendar year, with my Watch & Wait portfolio (a basket of potential Gorillas and Kings) serving as a feeder tank to UnQ's Index. This year, several of my original W&W stocks have graduated, including such stocks as QCOM and SEBL. It also appears that GMST will move up within the next 6 months, assuming their tornado takes off (if it hasn't already). Hope this helps! Justin Sir Chartmeister, W&W Portfolio P.S. Hopefully people won't confuse my moniker with your signature ;o) !!!
