Honest Abe, Geez, thanks for the compliment. My "brief fling with Buffett" is an overstatement. I've been intrigued by Buffett ever since I read Lowenstein's account. But I never thought I could find stocks like him - I didn't know what to look for. Buffettology spells it out, and allows me to quantitatively calculate the value. I was and am excited about this, but I am less enthusiastic about using this strategy in today's market. I subscribe to several strategies, and I am trying to use them to create my own unique - and hopefully soundly grounded - strategy. My waiting for bad news and downgrades is my most recent contribution to adding concepts of event trading and contrarian investing to value investing. It stems from Buffett's waiting for the right pitch, however. Good Investing, Mike
