David, Thanks for your comments. Small investors like you and me (assuming you are one) should remind themselves constantly that the elite analysts don't work for us--the size of their compensation packages depend upon, among other things, the following: 1) the ability to "move" stocks or create volatility for brokerage houses. 2) the ability to serve their big clients (money managers and other big boys/gals). 3) the ability to play a "supportive" role in brokerages's investment banking business. All of the above have interests contrary to those of small investors. Regards, Ibexx PS: re. FLC. I am sure you had looked at the beautifully smooth and steep charts of FLC--you hardly detected market corrections just from looking at these charts.
