Hello everyone, I will post my short list later tonight. To the volunteers...if you're like me you might find 10 stocks you feel like recommending. Of those, please point to a smaller number that you feel absolutely fantastic about, that are "must haves". These will likely end up in our Roaring Twenty basket...after some discussion. If we have enough "honorable mentions" we will keep track of a secondary basket of companies that are good turnaround possibilities and otherwise well-managed with growth prospects, but not HUGELY undervalued at this time or not ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC in sales/EPS at this time. That secondary basket will get a different name.

Announcement: esecurities chose the name Roaring Twenty. That will be the name of the main portfolio. If you wish, es, please e-mail me your address and shirt size, or alternatively, e-mail it to Jill the Webmistress. Ryan Weisman of S.I.T. T.H.I.N.K etc fame, I would dearly like you to get a shirt too for your inventiveness. Jill might say yes to a second t-shirts, give her a mail and see what she says.

To all--we could still use a few more good, undervalued growth techstocks, the more candidates we have, the better chance of success.

CPCI update--earnings decrease this year, just announced. Unless the stock gets cheaper, we'll have to drop it (from last year's basket). If anyone wants to provide an update on other RAID or Fibre Channel plays, we'd like to hear it.

Or if anyone would like to find us the next Ballard Power or MRVC, that would be nice. :) MRVC had what, $2 mil in sales 5 years ago?

See you a bit later.

TMSR - (All the) "Rage" !!

As used in their 1/02/98 press release, "Thrustmaster All The Rage With New 3D Gamepad", it seems to me that TMSR's use of the term 'Rage' refers to:

"A burning desire; a passion., A current, eagerly adopted fashion; a fad or craze"

I happen to think that a new culture of Internet Cyberathletes is coming to life.

And as the game of SimRacing becomes interactive over the Net thanks to NROS (NASCAR Online), and evolves towards a professional money sport with cash and other prizes ... TMSR and other racing wheel manufacturers will benefit.

At the moment, TMSR is the only pure play I know of.

The larger picture is that of various forms of the 'Gaming' industry being marketed into the same home market that WebTV is going for. This is where TMSR's Rage 3D Gamepad controller has been positioned.

TMSR with its business relationships involving NASCAR and CD (Cendant-NYSE) and TEN (Total Entertainment Network) makes an investment worth looking into.

Response to a long-ago post: Which companies will benefit from net rage?

Well, there's a saying I hear from my female friends and from the none-too-entertaining comic Cathy: when the going gets tough, the tough go shopping!

Dropping money in pointless fashion is always in fashion. How a certain percentage of this multi-trillion dollar industry will move online is the secret to mega-profits in the coming decade.
