um i have a few questions.... 1. Is this thread really "independent" of market gems? there seems to be a very strong relationship after viewing market gems and reading the original purpose of the thread and seeing the market gem watch list posted and discussed everyday. 2. Is trading in "fundamentally sound" companies a core ingredient in the market gem strategy? This was my impression when i recently came across this thread and the market gem site. (At the risk of irking loyal posters, i feel Wayne is correct in pointing out that BOST is not fundamentally sound. BOST may or may not be a good daytrade. However, that is a different question.) 3. When i am reviewing Jenna's watch list, I am assuming that the stocks have been screened for this in some fashion. Is that correct? If so, is correct to assume that other watch lists posted here may or may not follow this strategy? I am sure all would agree that daytraders need to be disciplined in their strategy. I am a little confused as to what strategy is being followed here. If it has been modified since the original statement maybe someone could briefly list those changes and save me reading 10,000 posts to figure this out. swrdfsh

PDS, great earnings this afternoon ...and so? Undervalued, Good earnings reports, but where are the profits for stockholders? I was once very keen on the oil service sector. My biggest profit ever came from the sale of CDG options just about a year ago. (MikeB remember!!). Everyone talks about how undervalued the particular stocks are, how much growth going forward, how they are the world's leader in their particular niche (PDS,SCSWF,DO). But the bottom line is for swing traders and position traders it is like walking through a mine field. PDS came out with stellar earnings late this afternoon. I had a couple of e-mail asking what I thought. Well I will play it like I played VTS a while back. When I see the stock move in the morning I'll believe it and act accordingly. SCSWF is a super company with 6 strong buys and fantastic niche and has given me so far pockets of one-day profits. I expect earnings to be good, but I'm weary of jumping in. PKD is coming out with earnings tomorrow (yawn!).. valuations for PKD start at 36$ a share and go up to $44.. valuations for PDS start at $39 a share and go to $77. SCSWF is the most; valuations start at $36 in one case.. and go to $150 in some others. Growth going forward for all them are from 21% a year upwards. But I don't expect them to act like the technology sector any time soon. If you sat around and did nothing this week the technology sector took off without you. I don't think PDS,PKD and SCSWF's earnings will propel the sector to any real rally, a smallish gain in some ...and poof your "rally" fizzles like it did this morning. I'll wait and see. If the sector has a good day tomorrow, I'll be on it, if not I'll get my stocks in order of which is breaking out tomorrow.
