Also, "very low prices" for Yugo (UTEK) and Chevy (LRCX) are not that low when you look at the low price for Mercedes/BMW (AMAT). Yawn... kinda boring Carey as I know you don't like them but I've made a ton of bucks on both UTEK and LRCX and have banked the profits since the bottom and just hold the additional shares now as my bonus. I don't give a darn if I invest in a Yugo or a Corvette as long as I make money and UTEK and LRCX have kicked butt over my AMAT investments. You are more than welcome to shop at Nordstroms for your investments as that is where the majority seem to shop. The big bucks in my pocket, you can't argue, have come from buying and selling the swings in the "dollar store" stocks. Lets put it in engineering terms for you. What yields more power (think cycles here...)? #1 a 100V peak to peak sine wave or #2 a 25V peak to peak sine wave Odds are higher to get electrocuted from a 100V sine wave, but.... since 1998, LRCX has been the winner to trade cbs.marketwatch.com but since 2001 the gains/swings have been in UTEK cbs.marketwatch.com and AMAT has been boring since the Fall 02 bottom: cbs.marketwatch.com Perhaps your secret is out that Nordstroms/AMAT is a good place to shop? Remember, I bought NEAR the bottom more UTEK and LRCX last fall and have already sold enough of the shares to get my money back AFTER more than DOUBLES and the remaining shares are even higher. AMAT hasn't even doubled yet from the bottom as the last chart shows. Many like to own the leaders and shop at Nordstroms with the vallet parking their BMW in the parking lot. Me, I drive to Walmart in my Corvette and enjoy my savings.
