Looking forward toward a new year of yaking and finding where the money is in this market. I know we can do it. LOL The bride thourghly enjoyed herself, which made me very happy. I made 47% of my goal so have a challenge to meet the remainder over the next 6 months...piece of cake. Tahoe was absolutely breathtaking. The Sierra Nevada's were totally white with snow, the hotel was above expectations (food, food and more food). A little pricey, but well worth the comfort and service...I could live a rich man's life very easily. Our every wish and desire was attended to post haste. On flow. It is my understanding that there will be a restructue of the present financing (hopefully not convertible) that should buy the new guy some time to prove himself. They have (as mentioned) the #1 company in their space so will be watched carefully for improvement. I'm in at 2.30 and will be extatic if they go up to book of 4+. The news that Joe pointed out on DFIB is a positive in my view so will hold there too. Average is below 2.00 with the present 50dMA at 2.11, so have some wiggle room. CDIC has become my favorite trader for the money of late, even though in a decided downtrend. Earnings are toward the end of the month with one analyst upping his estimate by .01 last month. Also, they are expecting some sort of decision from CMS on extended coverage in more states as well as covering hypertension. The wild card, of course, remains the Paulson Trust and its continued selling. Congrats on CLGY, 4 held nicely, just as you said. <GGGGGG> Well, back to the drawing board!! I may need your home address again as I want to send you the result (if it turns out) of a long held interest that I now have the time to pursue. hint: I sign my name at the bottom! LOL Ken
