welcome to General Volt School of Nuclear Proliferation

Secretary of Defense -- Dr Strangelove

Attorney General -- Joseph McCarthy

you have a few strong suits, Tom:
*** golf
*** women for hire
*** gambling and profiting only with a stacked deck
*** sales pitching toward ruin
*** hospitality

NOT POLITICS
when attacked, you hide
when frustrated, you want to fire nukes

your emotionally charged and highly irresponsible views on nuclear weapons are alarming

yes, we deal with fanatics
and they require stronger action
but a showcase nuke display would have consequences that you would regret even more than expecting a stock tech rally from Sept to January last year

it is a wise man who knows his limitations
stick with the few skills you have that offer reward
/ Jim

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. There are the stocks that are discussed most often on the porch........and 1 or more are in most porcher's portfolio.

The Watch & Wait Index consists of stocks that have some desirable characteristics but are not necessarily Gorillas or Kings - at least not yet. Most of them will not be, but they bear watching for that possibility.
