Sorry 'bout that awake thing Rande--that was part of post to the thread that had been dormant for months. I trade about 40-60 stocks at any one time. SBIO is in a group of 10 to 15 which are fully listed low priced situations in which I enter based on breakouts via long term technical charting. Others that have already moved from their breakouts in that group include CYTO, RGEN, IMGN. A break on low volume is something I like to see with these and my average return on this approach, while not close to that of my pennies, is about $200% with minimal risk. Correlation of gain to eps with these has been minimal. Nonbio plays in this group include NETM and NESC both of which have much stronger fundamentals. However based on a few yrs of evaluation of this approach I'd have to say it would be difficult to prospectively determine which stock moves up first, though in this case we've already seen some nice movement with these latter two. The real money (5000%+ over last 15 months) is with those awful pennies that ya don't like here :-) patwrk

RANDE IS-Could you give me your sense of the market as we sit here tonight? I feel a bit greedy as my long retirement portfolio is up over 6 % for today. Now at 857 k compared to 718 k at start of 2000. Trading port. only up 1.5 percent today, but up 23 percent for year with little to no trading. Now feelings of fear of losing some of this is hitting me. Sounds like the stock market is inside of my head. wait...yoga breathing...ok, have my balance back. Ah, fear and greed in my head. Too much focus on feelings. Anyway, your thoughts however brief would be welcome. Need to head back to office tonight to work on some new lawsuits I am defending corporate clients on. Best regards, Bob
