OK, but what about the ones that do end up having great ideas for companies and go on to be successful, should we not judge the pick by the premise of their idea, their marketing plan, etc. Obviously stocks in this grouping are higher risk, but SJIG last year was almost a break-even. So big idea with small market-cap might be a good investment? O.

Bob, interesting info. and good web page. Add DCHT to your list. There is a DCHT forum here on SI. I almost bought this unknown at $2.00, and watched it race up to almost $7.00 in about a week. It has since fallen back to about $5.50. I also received that e-mail blast on SJIG. The upside is that each of these picks do seem to run strongly for about 30 days. The down side is I typically don't understand the company, nor if their projections are realistic. I don't care what this company reported - AVIA has been a stinker for them. I paper invested the day I got their e-blast and it has never moved into positive territory. As for SJIG, again, their numbers look intriguing. Why has the stock fallen from $9 to $3+? Kent
