AV--Right now I could use a few bounces just to get on a good roll. It seems that Monday Morning Quarterbacking on some trades this week had me whining. The sales were ESLTF, NETC and the Trading Shares of BYDS. I missed the absolute tops and was kicking myself until I saw today's prices. All of them were off by a nice %. They were turned around for ADPT at roughly $20 which has enjoyed a nice pop today. Now if it isn't too much trouble, could you whisper to the market to provide a good pop tomorrow (options Friday, I think) to ALYD, PAIR, UTEK, ASYT, CYMI, WDC and ADPT. Just a Lucky 7 stocks to form higher bases. Heck, if it is too much to ask, just get me a pop on UTEK, ADPT and ALYD.<GGG> I am involved in some "hit and run" activity trying to generate 5-10% as much as possible in limited investments. Where is Robin when we need her??? IDTI did not drop as expected but going up 1/16 on that amount of volume seems to indicate a great deal was done to prevent it from falling. I am still looking at the next 3 days to decide. I think we might see some action after people mull over the numbers this weekend. This stock may be a great play for this year and I just want to get positioned at the right time. I am looking at a 50% or greater return then going to the side. It is one of about 12 stocks that I believe could roller coaster to 50% gains this year at some point in time. Obviously ADPT is in this group. For the record: WDC, AMAT, ASYT, UTEK, NVLS, PLAB, MTSN, CFMT, PAIR, and KLAC Out of the mainstream, I think when all is said and done, MOYC, ATMI, FTEL, NANX, BYDS, IOM, ALYD, IPEC, and CYMI could come close to doubling at one point in time. Keep in mind, at these prices, it is quite conceivable that this could happen. It doesn't make me smart or a genius since they are at dramatic lows. It states that I have some confidence that the money guys on the Street may recognize some of these stocks as good values sometime this coming year and create yet another run on the techs. I think the above contestants in the beauty contest may get most of the attention at some point in time. I will be taking profits as they present themselves in these anticipated ranges. Jeff-nice stories popping up om TPII<GGG>. Oh yeah, there are lines forming to buy Bronco "stuff" for the Super Bowl. A new store opened up in town dedicated to just selling this stuff only. They keep running out of the shirts, mugs, etal. with deliveries coming in everyday. I wonder if KNIC or INNO is providing this stuff???<GG> Or better yet, is the frenzy just in Green Bay and Denver metro areas or has the whole country jumped on the bandwagon. If so, shouldn't we be investing in the companies that are making this "Stuff"? Looks like a great short term investment for this quarter. Unless of course, they get stuck with all the "useless stuff" after the SuperBowl from the losing team.<GGG> BTW-What's the Stock Swap point spread for the game?? Andrew
