***1 STOCK 1 WEEK*** COMS long 11/17 Open

Of all the stocks I track, COMS is the furthest off its 52 week high, and I just don't see it dropping much more. Even with its reduced earnings estimates, it's trading at a lower forward PE than the other networking stocks and all of the recent downgrades makes it even more attractive.

*** 1 Stock 1 Week *** My pick is MRVC long, 11/17 Open.

MRVC volume has picked up last couple of trading days with signs of picking up from a short term bottom. Fundamentals are sound and IR has recently confirmed that perceived problems are not of real concern. Such perceived problems are:

1: MRVC has Israeli operations which may be seen as a cause for concern in the light of Iraq - US relations.

2: Networking stocks have taken a fall due to concerns about maintaining high growth. MRVC is not yet big enough to be affected by this problem.

3: Asain troubles are seen by some as a risk to business from that part of the world. MRVC has stated recently that it is not large enough to be affected by macroeconomic conditions and that sales in Asia continue to grow.

MRVC is now trading at 26. It has a history of trading between low twenties and high thirties making higher highs and higher lows. It appears that it recently hit a low and is on the way back.

**1 stock one week** MRVT long, 11/17 open.

not a very high confidence pick, hope to profit from its volatility - a rising tide may lift this boat more than others.

would have taken klic, and actually bought some at 28 3/8 on friday but john beat me to the punch. the warning about next q's weakness was not serious enough to justify a basically flat day after strong earnings.

<Two other stocks I liked were PAIR and CKH. I also hold QNTM (since Friday morning) which looks good in the short term. >

Great! Since PAIR and QNTM are my two biggest holdings, the fact that you like them Rudy, makes me feel much better.

***1 STOCK 1 WEEK*** CTAL long 11/17 Open

AT may be right that today will open with a bong and be the high of the week, thus making a short after the open a better play. But, since this a game and CTAL is one of my favorites, I'm giving it a try. Will also probably pick up some more in my real account. It is a steal at these levels....
