Carl Worth, nice to read a positive opinion on homebuilder SPF. Fwiw - not much - here's a recap of on my SPF posts. Fwiw, my core position was established in '98. With more in 8/'99. Message 6218364 I see I added some 1/'04, and a little more 4/'04. Message 19669915 Message 20076015 On 4/6/05, when I said I was considering buying more SPF: Message 21204541 I actually sold a little on 4/15/05. I don't understand why that post and my file records don't match. Maybe I forgot to file a trade or something changed quickly wherein I decided to sell. Anyway, turns out that 4/15/05 was a near-term low, so I should have bought and not have sold finance.yahoo.com ---------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- Agree with you on how these land owner stocks can double that quickly. (And otherwise remain near dormant for years). I believe that doubling's what happened with ALCO after a bullish article in Barron's in 2001: finance.yahoo.com I've had a couple others, smaller land holders, that popped similarly sharply when they suddenly received buyout offers. --------------------------------- Happy New Year all and best wishes!
