Today I sold all my trading NVLS shares bot at 49 and 40 today for a nice 35% gain. I can live with that.

Re: BUT, if that print on the jobs report is real and portends a TREND, there is one real slowdown around the corner IMO. At most maybe one or two rate hikes have worked their way through the system. What happens when the other four or five bite? There will be some earnings misses.

After thinking a little while after my last post, I went into after hour trading and good-by, WCOM CSCO and SVGI. TER will have to wait till next week. I actually did a little better in after hours than the close in some trades.

The action lately in VFIIX has had a good effect on my net worth lately also. So far this has been a good year for me and I have kept risk to a minimum. Have a good weekend.

Good timing Justa!
You might consider some regular, run of the mill stocks with the muni bond bucks. The Value Line index, which I believe is unweighted and is more representative of the average Joe's portfolio, had its bear mkt in 1998 and has solid support at 400. Dick

Re: Chartheads and techies have woodies after today

"Somebody stop me"

The NYSE A-D line has turned up sharply after making a new low in May and in so doing, has triggered BUY signals on the optimized parabolic as well as all the daily trend regression channels that have been sloping downward since the short-term peak in this index in May of 1999. This is all accompanied by positive divergences in the Elliott Oscillator, MACD and RSI.

The New York Financial Index (NF) peaked in July, 1998 at 599.87 and has been in a choppy sideways consolidation ever since. The daily chart exhibits a nice "W" bottom in Februray-March of this year and has since developed a nice stair-step advance with higher highs and higher lows. It stands today at 579.15, within striking distance of a new all time high. This is more then a "sector" index, it is a leading indicator for the health of the market.

The S&P mid-cap 400 couldn't wait, it hit an all time new high on Friday.
