Hi Dennis. Yes that was a wierd ending but I sure am glad the clock ran out. Patriots are good but I am pulling for the Vikings. Yes I do sector investing as my whole portfolio is invested in the tech sector. As Sonny says I have my own mutual fund.ggg I did notice that fidelity's track record in the sector funds is very good especially in the oil service stocks. I do own a few non techs ie esv, mo, nob and bbi, but they are very insignificant relative to the entire portfolio. Good to hear that the fools like intc. So do I, it is just the street that hates it. Take care and have a good day/semester etc. Back to work this morning for me.
