Truth, justice, and the American way. <gg> Not a damn thing wrong with that, Jim. Make it so. With the NAZ down 7 or 8% on the week, I don't think any strategy has worked terribly well.

Jim, I think you just were unlucky. My buy/hold strategy worked because I had biotechs and this was the month. I think Richard comes up with much wiser tech picks and holds. To me this works in a rising market and with quality stocks. The day the market goes south, I would guess that "flipping"/daytrading would work better but it is more work. Still waiting for that day to test. I will know that day because interest rates will be high. Like in most of the 80s. So don't give up entirely on buy/hold yet. And although I have good gains this month, I would not be surprised to see you catch up next month when your stocks have their day ... Keep up the good posts. They are good to read. LIA PS got in MRVC yesterday. Looks good. And look at KOPN, 50% for me ...
