Hi Dealer and all.
I hope I didn`t offend or expose anyone by posting a directory of the picture. What was I thinking-- what with several x-jail mates on the porch anyway. Actually-- most of them were wrong anyway.. Dealer has the real holedown on who`s who.

I hope Money Magazine gets it right..

Later
Danger

AFTERHOURS QUOTES

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.

The following Stocks are on the Gorilla and King Index

The following Stocks are on the Gorrilla and King Wait and Watchlist. The Watch & Wait Index consists of stocks that have some desireable characteristics but are not necessarily Gorillas or Kings - at least not yet.
