Sergio ALU is a great lesson. Debt was the key to the puzzle along with borrowing against something that was not in hand. Took the op on DFIB 2.07 to 2.24, still holding the cores though. LOL APT (mentioned last week) is the % gainer for me this time around 1.75 to 2.40...pure luck and SARS hype. LOL Ya gotta take em as they come. DHB looks to be doing some consolidating at this spot (now watch it tank) for the next move up. Sold the rest of my STOR today. Big a$$ gap to fill. LOL Ken

Sergio, Should be interesting to see if IPSU draws more interest once it trades on the NAS NM. There is a very small float available so any volume should be very positive. This quarters earnings are due out some time in the next few weeks I would guess. This quarter will be the first one to really show what their earnings potential could be. IDEV is doing pretty well also. Big conference at the end of the month I hope will move the price. Add it to the portfolio if anyone else likes it. ALU has been a major bust. Kens right about the debt. I usually stop looking at companies with large debts just for that reason. There is a reason they are in debt and its usually is not a good one. Joe

Sergio, You may want to remove ATPG from the portfolio. If Kens analysis comes true it is headed back towards $2.5 and from what I can gather on the fundamentals there is not anything driving it higher for a while. Sugar was sweet for me today, IDEV reminds me of your CLGY and TRIB is waiting to break out to around $3. Joe
