That is wise. I have sold out of my stocks that do not have high relative strength but am hanging onto others with mental stops. I should add that my fingers are crossed for a bullish outcome. :-() !!!!

New GDP Number Seen Outpacing 1st Report: U.S. Economy Preview

Washington, Feb. 20 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. economy was
probably stronger than previously reported in the last three
months of 1999, and figures to be released this week could even
show the economy grew at 7 percent rate for the period, analysts
said.

Gross domestic product, the nation's total output of goods
and services, probably grew at a revised 6.2 percent at an annual
rate in the fourth quarter, analysts said in a Bloomberg News
survey. That's up from the government's initial estimate of a 5.8
percent advance, also at a yearly pace.

With exports, imports and inventories on the rise, growth
could have been even greater, said some analysts.
''There were no soft spots in the U.S. economy in the fourth
quarter,'' said Joel Naroff, president of Naroff Economic Advisors
in Holland, Pennsylvania. ''The economy was hitting on all
cylinders.'' That's why a 7 percent growth rate for the quarter
''is clearly not out of the question,'' he said. The outlook also
points to a strong first half of the new year, Naroff said.

One of the threads favorites, PARA, now changed to FIVE, which we have played for the last year, zoomed from our last near bottom buy of 1.50 to an intra-day of $15.25 Friday, for a 1000% 40 day return...

Nasdaq Still King...
***********************
A comparison of the Nasdaq with The Russell 2000 shows both doing well the past
three months... But, the Nasdaq is performing better...

Another area doing very well is the Emerging Markets sector:

Money in the Nasdaq, Russell 2000, and Emerging Markets sectors has been treated well
the past three months...
