Hi dealie I don't gotta deal w/ wash sales as i got trader status this year thank my lucky stars & my excellent acct----will allow me to take tax loss back into my stellar year of 99 I tell ya, doing taxes...I like Quicken, this is my first year w/ it and its very easy and intuitive once you get the categories set up But I'm seeing my whole year flash behind me so to speak as I categorize all these receipts--I just had the unfortunate experience of coming across a Fido statement and seeing how much $ I had in my KEOGH in 99, UGH!!!!!

A F T E R H O U R S .. Q U O T E S & EARNINGS REPORT 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.
