Way, way off topic..... Gordo: One of the benefits of having a diversified portfolio is that the faceplants can't hurt you that much. Why so many on this thread can't grasp this basic investment concept is beyond me. Greed outweighing fear I guess. FWIW, as of 10 days ago I was down around 20% for the year. At the end of January I was down around 13% Heading into this morning's trading I'm down 0.74% Almost out of the red and into the black. So last year's profits are virtually intact. Sorry if that's disappointing to you. Inside information? I don't use it myself. Why should I? The 72% return I slapped up on the board beat every single mutual fund in the country last year, save one. American Heritage something or other which was up 75%. I see in Barron's Weekday Trader that Amer Her has 50% of its assets in one stock. Is that kooky or what? How's the GordoPorto doing this year anyway? Never did hear how you did last year. I sincerely hope your investment returns are significantly better this year. Chuck the baggage, clear your mind, learn more about investing profitably. You should probably start by spending more time on the Motley Fool's Web site. Lots and lots of wonderful stuff in there. fool.com Often a geat stepping off point for doing additional research. A recent addition to the FoolPort (TDFX) looks interesting (was lucky enough to find that one before the Fools did). Talk about your sequential revenue growth. Good luck, drakes353 PS - You might want to take a closer look at RAIN, EFII and come to understand why they dropped and why those reasons may quickly be going away. Templeton talks about the concept "maximum pessimism", I think it's been reached on both of those names.
