OT: Hello Linda. I thought I would try out your FBI site just for fun - getting tired of always looking at investment-related sites. But it must not work from Canada - darn! I even have a SSN and everything. I agree with your comments about only investing in those companies you really believe in. Unfortunately, my current portfolio is over-weighted in companies that I don't have much faith in. My future purchases will be much more in line with your principles. Techs will rebound - they must to satisfy our hunger for gadgets. I think the fibre optic industry is the next big play. I just don't know of any good companies in this area. Best Regards, Molly

I never followed Tokyo Joe. It is a daytraders site. I always lose when I attempt to daytrade. I locked in a lot of profits about 3 weeks ago and proceeded to lose a lot of those profits over the past couple of weeks attempting to trade and buy on what I thought were bargains in the Nasdaq. I hardly ever short a stock and now I believe it may be too late to short most of them. I have taken a 50% hit in the past couple of weeks due to the fact my two largest positions, (MOAT, VITC) have floundered. I anticipate both MOAT and VITC to find some kind of base at these levels and we can get back to some kind consistency again. I believe a lot of the down slide over the past three weeks can also be attributed to people locking in some profits to pay their capital gains taxes from last year. Cheers RG
