<They REALLY don't care about promises, just show them the money.> you're absolutely correct Howard...and I have absolutely no doubt that Triby will show them the money with their 4th qtr/yr #'s... 3rd qtr was a record for Triby and the 4th will be even better the Celtic Tigers are puttin up some impressive numbers...the market will respond when they see 'em....Long Triby since '94 ... :-) Ron

Howard thanks for the reality check. Your comments make sense. Trouble with some investors is that looking at sales/earnings growth only is only a step above handing over our money to a mutual fund and what fun is there in that. HAHA Some investors/speculators, myself included, find that search for a future jewel more rewarding than being a passive investor. I will admit that over the last 3 years I could have made a lot more $$$ in the market if I had invested passively in many mutual funds or in individual blue chip stocks. This would have been the smart thing to do. But in the long haul I still prefer to be in control of all aspects of my investing and at some point do believe a jewel or two will pop up that will surpass the losses or my duds. Jim
