I agree...seems like YCS is only a more attractive alternative to trading utilities. Some utilities may offer 1 to 3% more for a yield, but most wouldn't perform anywhere near 66% in 3 years.

BTW -- not wanting to re-open that 200dma debate, in a response to Helios, I realized that you weren't referring to the validity or importance of a MA trendline to a stock, but to a certain detail in my original statement. I mentioned to Jurgen that I phrased my words wrong:

ASND had a positive close above the 200dma for the first time in a year...so even those who held shares from 200 days ago and never picked up any more in the bargain bin, are now making money.

The part in bold type is what threw everything off and should be ignored. You're right that the statement in bold, is in error. The correct statement would have been:

[ASND had a positive close above the 200dma for the first time in a year...so the majority of shares purchased within the past 200 days, are now making money."]

In my first response, I was going into the significance of the 200dma, not aware of what you were actually talking about. So when you continued on about that, I thought you were "pulling a potato". ;o)

Style Pts.
