My point was not to follow anyone blindly. It's best choose for oneself. Meaning, if you so happen to pick some or all of Volt's picks, once you buy them, they are not longer Volt's picks they are yours. You buy them because you see that they have the potential to rise, not because someone else does.

Voltaire's Porch Basket of Stocks

These Stock Have Not Been Picked By Any One Individual
GORILLA A company that controls it market because it has a discontinuous innovation ,one that is not compatible with existing systems. The market is in a hyper growth stage, and they control the architecture. There is a high switching cost to using some other company's product,
KING The Market leader, properly with a two-times lead or better over its closest competitor. If the lead shrinks too far, the king becomes a prince, and we have a kingless market. Because they lack architectural control, and because switching costs are low, they cannot force competitors onto the defensive the way Microsoft, Intel, or Cisco can. Compaq is a king. Seagate is a king of hard drives.
A lot of study has been done on these stocks by the Gorilla and Kings thread. There are the stocks that are discussed most often on the porch........and 1 or more are in most porcher's portfolio.

Brother Coonaz,

You post was a thing of beauty!!

You know the real beauty of this story is he's never asked for anything in return and he'll most likely be
embarrassed about this post because he is a very humble and giving person.


AMEN! And Tom these feelings are from the rest of us also.

let me just say that if I were going to trust my life, my wealth or most of all my family's future with anyone other than God himself and my Dad, it would be Voltaire.

TRIPLE AMEN!! Tom I sincerely hope you are not embarrassed by these remarks. Sometimes we have to stop and take a moment to thank you for your TIME, your ENERGY, and most of all your GENEROUSITY to share your wisdom with those of us who appreciate it.

Thanks from all of us,

Joel

Hi coonaz,
I had not seen your post until Joel posted to you. Yes, turning a little read. It is great being with a group of people that think of helping each other rather than cutting each other.

I JUST WANT TO SAY HOW PROUD I AM TO HAVE MY NAME ASSOCIATED WITH THIS THREAD.

Thanks ,

Tom
