Hi Voltage,
Asking for a few more Angel Listening tips...

(I know it sounds corny. Wait until the Wall St. Journal reporter dude, get's a look at the topic of conversation over here...)
:^)

Anyhow, like I mentioned earlier about how I often get urges to research stocks for no apparent reason.
It's been happening again with PHCM. It seems that every evening as I'm reading charts of my favorite or potential trade stocks, I continually type in PHCM for some reason by accident.

I enjoyed a nice runnup with them during it's IPO days. Then I figured it had run up far enough and I jumped off.
Since then it had doubled again, split, etc.

Anyhow, I figured it was overvalued a few month's ago and lost interest in it. I didn't see much potential for it as soon as the G3 phones roll around.

I now have a WAP enabled Motorolla StarTAC phone that I can use to browse the internet.
I have to admit that I'm not very impressed with it.
There is a very limited list of WAP enabled sites.

This brings me to my question.
When you get a feeling for a stock. Do you feel good about the stock? Do you begin to look at the unlimited growth possibilities of the company?
(I feel this for other companies, not PHCM.)

Or do you simply feel that you are being directed toward it? So you better not ignore it?

Believe me, I understand how corny this may sound to others...

I have learned a lot about TA, doing DD, and now I'm attempting to learn AL (Angel Listening).

Voltaire, If you don't mind, please teach me some tips.
Or perhaps simply give me a clue as to the difference between a gut feeling and signal from them.
My gut tells me no, but my subconscious says yes.

Thanks.

AFTERHOURS QUOTES---&----EARNINGS RELEASE DATES
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.
