PORFOLIO FROM A FIVE WEEK LURKER WHO LOOKS TO SOMEDAY BECOME A VALUABLE THREAD MEMBER. First off, Happy Thanksgiving to all. I'm a 31 year old long term investor whose main goal has always been to select high risk, high reward stocks for my long term portfolio. I often buy a few shares online and then see how they perform while developing confidence in them before buying more. I love reading this thread, but do not feel confident enough to contribute before doing more research through past posts and reading the Gorilla Game. I ordered the book and audio cassettes and am studying them currently. I currently work for a Computer Value Added Reseller (LOVE Citrix) so you will see most of my stocks focus on the tech sector. I am probably an ideal candidate to benefit from this thread because A. I have a hard time narrowing down stocks so I often buy a few shares of several stocks rather than making a bold selections. I have TOO MANY STOCKS ! B. I have a hard time with when to sell. C. I need more focus and tend to look at market timing too much when buying a stock. Here are my current stocks I own. Suggestions are more than welcome as I take constructive criticism as help. CSCO 25%- Steady as a rock TLAB 20%- First stock ever bought..725% gain hard to sell AOL 12% EMC 8% HD 7% CMGI 4%- Great Growth ahead BRCM 4% WCOM 3% INSP 2% DELL 3%- I don't know if I want this stock anymore ???? YHOO 2% JDSU 2%- THANK YOU THREAD; bought at 110 MFNX 2% GMST 2%- Recent purchase at 109 WPNE 1% PFE 2%- Keep asking myself WHY I own this stock ? QCOM 1%- Took first position at 360 Again, Happy Thanksgiving to all, and I'd like to thank everyone for their views. Feel free to offer comments if you choose. Bretsky
