I might designate this class of company as "Bass" - big fish in a small pond but not any form of primate or royalty. I like it! Much better than "shiny pebble" and other attributes. --Mike Buckley

OT - My First Bass >>To continue the animal kingdom naming conventions I might designate this class of company as "Bass" - big fish in a small pond but not any form of primate or royalty.<< As a young boy I caught my first largemouth bass while casting a Heddon River Runt in the shallows of a prairie lake on a calm sunny day. I fondly remember the wonder of that beautiful fish amidst the pickerel weed and dragon flies, and the sense of triumph I felt. I get much the same feeling from a successful investment. I guess this stock market thing really taps into those primal hunter/gatherer instincts.
