Following is an e-mail: Dear Investor, [ed. comment this buy, who is no doubt a great analyst. Unfortunately I had VICL for months and months before finally selling and losing money only to watch it run up. Okay so that is one, but others I didn't keep and tie up good money for 4 years to wait for the current run up. There is just one small matter. Someone should tell this analyst that there is NO NEED to hold a stock for years (since 1996 I've played at holding biotechs). Although I admit I did miss out on VICL, by entering the bitotech sector in December 1999, I didn't need to hold that long and we still got up to 200-300% back on quite a few (over 20). So I think I'll pass on the great secret since it was nothing more than luckily being in the right place at the right time.. No secret and no genius was involved, just the H&Q biotech conference and something we all know called the January effect] Now lets continue... Forget what you've heard! I'm here to tell you that you CAN safely invest in technology stocks.and make huge returns. Let me show you my secret. Back in the mid-'80s, I began to notice that Research and Development is a "magic indicator" for spotting future winners and losers among tech stocks. So I developed a proprietary formula--called Great Growth Flow--for analyzing technology stocks based on their R&D spending. It's really quite simple. Before deciding whether or not to buy a technology stock, I look at four key factors to determine if it is a Great Growth Flow company. One of those factors, of course, is R&D spending. Focusing our attention on R&D makes us look at the true driver of future growth and success in technology investing: new products. I look for companies that are spending at least 7% of sales on R&D. A company that invests any less either is not committed to growth, or is operating in an industry that is so price competitive there aren't enough profits to accelerate R&D. We only want to own companies that are pouring money back into R&D--after all, that's how they will extend their dominance into the future. How has this strategy worked? Our core technology holdings were up more than 140% in 1999 [ours was up more], my recommended stocks have returned 553% returns over 10 years,[if you were a glutton for punishment and locked yourself in a dungeon] and I was ranked the #1 technology advisor by an independent industry watchdog. sorry I wasn't ranked #1 nor were the members of this thread and yet we ALL did better than 140% Now I'd like to help you build your fortune from the technology revolution, too. Accept this special NO-RISK invitation to join my Technology Investing service today, and I'll send you all the details on the other three Great Growth Flow factors you should consider before buying a single technology stock. Plus, I'll tell you the names of the 5 tech stocks every investor must own. [pencils poised] Just click [your heels after you've donned your magic "Oz" shoes and say three times "I can do it"] (just kidding) on the link below or copy and paste it into your web browser for all the details. ******* This e-mail was reposted is all with the best of intentions and should only read with a sense of humor, I have no reason to disparage anyone I just thought the superlatives and inference that there was only 1 capable of performing this magic feat were amusing. So now threaders don't let anyone make you think you are incapable of coming up with your own picks through research and due diligence. No one has a 'secret' its just a matter of investing in the proper tools for research and putting aside some time to utilize them.
