If Jerry is worried about margin now, then we must have marked the bottom... I called Jerry back when CALL, as Nextel was then listed, dropped to around 11. I was thinking of doing some bottom fishing and wanted to hear his opinion. He didn't like the idea, and suggested some other little stock. I bought the CALL anyway, figuring that Klein's negativity was a good contrary indicator. But to be fair, I've made made some money in the past with his recommendations on Ascend and SanDisk.

Freeus, I listen to Jerry Klein when I get a chance. Several times I've called his show. Frankly, he's the best at what he does on the radio. Having said that, I do my own homework. I find his answers somewhat shallow at times. That's all that many folks want: someone to tell them what to do. Me? I like to get my hands dirty. In Jerry's defense, he does the show to attract customers. Apparently it's working but I'll continue to manage my own bucko$. Why should Jerry have all the fun? :-)) Which brings up another point: why would anyone own mutual funds and allow someone else have all the fun when they can do their own investing and have better success than the mutual fund managers?
