Sorry John, I was eating Campbell soup and " Campbell " came naturally to mind......................<vbg>. But ......of course... John....Chambers.... Would be Telco boy except that he only has less than 2% of telco biz. Soon telcos will be eating ISPs breakfast lunch and dinner.... And then........Goodbye Crisco......... And........"Don't buy CNC". Buy Crisco instead? Yeah right? Talking about obesity, :-) TA Message #57698 from xcr600 at Jul 2, 2000 9:25 PM << Look at Crisco: it would never had gotten there without John Campbell. >> Don't ya mean John Chambers??

xcr600, would it be too much to suspect that many aggressive SI threaders bought stock on CNC today? <VBG> Don't think so. If they did then they've done quite well: Up 16.7%, just on average daily volume!! siliconinvestor.com Imagine what the stock will do when some serious buyers start coming in ( not he SI Las Vegas crowd , <vbg>; OK I am sorry I said that ). cheers :-)) BTW, CRISCO up 1.7% today.........

In the case of Conseco for me, the squeeze is the frosting in the cake. Look at eighty eight's post below: Conseco, Hold, or Bail? Message 13985283 That's why I bought it. First off however, the No 1 reason i bought it is because of Gary Wendt: Companies are their CEOs, very often. Look at Crisco: it would never had gotten there without John Campbell. The day he goes CSCO will tank several points, trust me on this. The other reasons are all illustrated in eighty eighty's nice review. -Top portfolio :ownership of Colonial Penn, Washington National, Pioneer, Banker’s Life, National Fidelity, Jefferson National, Beneficial Standard, Great American, Lincoln American, American Travelers, Transport, Massachusetts General, United, Continental Wabash and others. -And since 1992 revenues increased 6-fold while net income and the stock price exploded…that is until 1998 when GNT sold CNC’S management a pig in a brown paper bag (poke). BTW if every investor in SI on Monday buys 1000 shares only a small number of 50000 investors will have bought 50000000 shares and start a short panic situation. So it will not take too many people to get the price up. Can you say Happy July 4 Th?? <vbg> cheers TA PS: Perhaps the CONSECO discussion should take place in the CNC SI thread. Any thoughts? back later, TA
