Jan, I think both of you have excellent points. FA timing has got to be terrible if it can be done at all. I would add however, from my own experience I look at P/Es occasionally but don't factor them in. They are just numbers to me and even though I can reason out what they mean, I don't.

Fortunately when I first started trading a friend of mine, Berney, did the FA for me. He picked out 75 or so of the "big" boys and thats what we traded with for the first learning period and still do with rare exception.

Now I am moving over to strictly trade the indexes just to stay farther away from the company specific news and company specific FA. Rarely do you hear one of the talking heads or analysts say that the SnP fired their CFO for kiteing funds, or that the SnP missed it's expected EPS.

I have been super successful with these tactics, they aren't for everyone though. LOL, if everyone did the same thing or looked the same way this world wouldn't be very interesting would it?! ggggg

I hope you folks have super good luck next week. Lets all make money!! ggg

Thanx,

Paul K.

I would be interested in hearing from anyone who might have a good method to use FA, but maybe we should not post it to this thread, since it is mostly geared toward TA.
