Mark Twain covered trading in Sept. as well as the rest of the year: "October is one of the peculiarly dangerous months to speculate in stocks. The others are July, January, September, April, November, May, March, June, December, August and February." Intel's guidance lacked any surprises...good or bad. So that's good...I think. I was expecting a rally today, but will be happy with one tomorrow. William, I am too gun shy to play the techs even if I think that a rally is coming. I look for safe sectors. For the last few months I've specialized in food stocks. They're quiet but hot. NAFC and FDP have been very good. Over 100% gains in both. SMF is a recent purchase that has yet to percolate. It will. This week's special was UNFI for an earnings run. Despite the negative TA, UNFI calls gave me 55% return in four days. Besides playing sectors, I buy and hold low volume small caps with good fundamentals. I'm holding DWYR since 2.60. Today's volume on DWYR was ZERO with a spread of 3.35 bid/3.50 ask. Not easy to get in on this stock, but when it hits 5, the current spread won't matter. Don't know if DWYR fits the rat mold but I'm curious to learn what the rat trading discipline is. Sergio
