in re: USWB/WHIT "Au contraire, Straight Life. It because of this excellent report (a week ago today) of yours that I looked into WHIT and decided that the USWB merger was a strategically great move that the market and momos were completely ignoring in favor of short-term profittaking. Your analysis gave me the confidence to conclude that this was a fantastic opportunity; I thought back to the last time this kind of thing happened, when GMST and TVG announced their merger and their prices tanked, allowing me to pick the former up at 69 (pre-split), about half of where it is now.

Long story short, I bought into WHIT the next day (last Tuesday) in the high 40s. It's at 61 1/2 now. I thank you for your "can be thrown in the trash" <g> report. And my IRA especially thanks you.

ROFLMAO!!!!!!
