You are right about CSCO, that is the whole reason I am thinking about just technical trading ETF's - much more diversification - can't blow up like an enron. Tonight on the active investor show they talked about IBM and said remember PAN AM - that even big companies can blow up, as an ex blueboy I couldn't agree more - I saw MSFT eat thier pesronal software lunch while us blueboys got paid by lines of code - of course OS2 was bloated - hehe. Then the dell's and others ate thier PC hardware lines - anyone remember micro channel architecture? Hehe. IBM was still strong in midrange/mainframe when I left, but the world is changing. And then that last announcement on slashdot that they were becoming a services company - well I see little hope for them long term. The caller was trying to say - but it's IBM! They will always make big money - perception is a HARD thing to change in people Slagle. Then there is just so much corruption and immoral people out there now that no ONE company is safe anymore from some kind of fallout. Today the Wiz said May was a great month for biotech's - should we check out a few of those?

Listening at gary kaultbaum - he said the financials and the BKX are doing well - but Phil TELLS ME WHY they are doing well - wall street corruption - kaultbaum isn't telling me on todays broadcast - but kaultbaum had a good pick today in OIH - right now he is saying look at GOOG, kmart(SHLD), and BLO. BWHAHA editing this message, gary just said BIOtech was JUNK and the WIZ said today biotech was good in may - even the PRO's can't come to consensus - aint it crazy Slagle?
