OT: Fisher...

I'm not sure that Ken is more popular or influential. However, he's more current given his Fortune column and the (relatively) successful book "Super Stocks". Ken may have additional "currency" b/c PSR's and PRR's (price/research ratio) appear to have better applicability to tech company valuation than do some more traditional methods.

Sam, I don't live by Ken Fisher's predictions but I don't ignore them either because he's an independent thinker. >I am not sure, however, whether Gottfried would agree with us on this issue.<

Ken Fisher's Superstocks, which I read in the late '80s was the most influential book on investing I have read and I have been reading investment books since 1970.

Its foundation is Phillip Fisher's investment ideas and Ken Fisher added the PSR and PRR metrics. For most of the '90s, these metrics were useful as relative measures, but the absolute guidelines proved too low.
