Hi DB: Have added some Mvl and Sbyn Sbyn needs to make some profits, but I figure the news on contracts was worth something, maybe 20% . May need to hold with patience My Internet Explorer E is contaminated with pop up Ads, spyware, add-eliminators , spyware eliminators. needs work (hahaha). Netscape works OK. They have dumped stuff like Keenvalue .exe, Wupdater.exe in my files. I have been trying to convert from trading to investing( straight gambling), but not much luck so far. Had to dump the Yhoo and most of the Brli, cannot stand that much volatility. But kept a few calls. Just cannot seem to add new stocks to the old holdings. Older ones are geacf, agi, tsco, nte,stuff like that Am getting out of Dell (mostly) as its too slow. Maybe only one of ten that I try new fits my preferences. Nte still looks strong, also Nfi but they both need watching

Re LTBH In order to go sit on an Island while holding stocks, we gotta find some kind of confidence. Its gonna take a while to do that Nobody is talking about Dow 14000, or even Nas 3000 as they once did. No confidense in market direction despite economic improvements. No confidence in fund managers or brokers ( properly so) As a trader I have to keep shifting investments around to keep from getting killed. Yhoo is up, Yhoo is down. Qcom is what? Sig@stilltrading.com Example HD. a fairly solid company In Jan 2002 you have $500,000 in HD, decide to take a summer vacation on an island By July you have lost $200,000 but go anyway. by October you have lost $290,000 and have only $210,000 left Decide to go go back home and get a job, never buy stocks again. So that HD isnt the right one.(g)
