<<you will find that owning just a few stocks (G/K) will give you a new sense of mastery over your portfolio. You will find that going to just a few reports and a few threads to keep track of those stocks will add to that sense.>> Absolutely, 100%, entirely right. When I started investing casually several years ago an experienced friend told me to buy and sell based on fundamental prospects, not price movements. I couldn't figure out how to tell the difference, both because I was too green and was in too many varied companies. Now that I'm in only a few, I find that I can (well, can try to, thanks to y'all and others<g>) keep close track of them, and thus gain the confidence to ignore short-term market movements based on hype, FUD, or exogenous variables. That is the single best reason for consolidation, IMO. <<You will see that owning just a few Gorillas and Kings will result in portfolio performance beyond your dreams.>> As the saying goes, "from your lips to God's ears"... :0) <<I wish I had done it sooner rather than later.>> me too. :0( just praying the good times continue a bit longer. bubbleboy/Ares@pleasepleasepleaselord.com
