re: Actually, Jim if your hunches were based on market risk you'd be okay. According to WSRN.com Dell's beta is 2.29 while Compaq's is 1.20 Thanks for the lesson on Beta.. The real problem is that today, many investors view risk as only making 10% in stock instead of 35% or 35% instead of 100%. BTW those are quartly numbers. The days of old for the market will return, That is when you will see some really good talks about risk. today, No one thinks the market can go down. And if it does, Like this most recient pullback, It will rally to new highs beofre the end of the year. Therefore there the risk is do I buy now or next week, either way I will make money. Jim Jim
