....has a decent looking chart on a TA basis

On the other thread, Swampdog recently posted that the trend is what counts. I agree with him. The new me says, regardless of fundametals, it makes little sense to hold a stock that just sits there while other stocks are trending up.

But it seems to me there's a further step. It similarly makes little sense to concentrate on a stock while other stocks are outperforming it. I like both TRX and MR, I own both and both have strong charts. But TRX is performing better than MR right now. When that changes, so will I.

Going through spreadsheets I found my stockpick list for December 2000.

CEF GG GLG MDG PAAS RGLD SIL ARZ.TO BAY.TO BWR.TO DPMA.TO
GBU.TO IMG.TO RNG.TO RPD.TO VOY.TO FGX.V

17 stocks, put $1000 into each for a total of $17,000
Wondered what it was worth today (if I had been smart enough to take my own advice)

Some obvious ones like Francisco Gold turning into Glamis,
then into Goldcorp resulted in 2120 shares of GG worth $93,000

Corner Bay into Pan American resulted into 778 shares PAS worth $32,000.

All of the others did well, and I got a final total of $253,000
