Junior! Obviously there are smarter people than you.. Its the ones that can find that little gems from the bull that makes you money. From: wdcrdrtmxtrapmibmtdkkomg (39/california) Jun 26 1998 9:14PM EDT My friend and other investors: Have a looksee at the past 3 10Qs or the one coming up. I would tell you what is in them, but I would be flamed as a short seller. BUT: What is in the 10q coming up? HOW could I know? The answer is right here on these bbs! IMHO long term price correlates with product performance, customer base, and profit margin and the like. I invest on those strategies, timing my purchases using selected data from this board and other sources who are privy to inside information There are other strategies, this just works for me, thats all. Insiders are posting on this board, right now (thank you, keep it coming). they have told me how many customers apm and other dd cos has, where they are going, what their technology level is, what the level of managment sophistication is, degree of institutional investment, and more than I probably ever wanted to know about apm. Why????? they are trading info with other insiders, some of whom work for competition or customers!! Data or opinion trust worthiness is judged by testing part of it to other data that the reader knows is reliable. Sometimes the validity or lack of it is extremely obvious. Information was posted here in November when the stock was 27 or something saying the customer base was gone and they did not have MR. I dont know if yahoo archives go back that far. Just for S+gs, take a look at archived Institutionals, mms and "analysts" recommendations back then..loved it (with exception to that article in Barrons with apm as favorite short..can anybody remember his name?). OF course there was a lot of other emotional love it/hate it bs on this board tooWho cares? Take a guess what I did with my shares then. thank you, whoever you are, for my new cars! Information was posted in April on Yahoo boards saying the company was losing its 2.8 qual battle with rdrt. Thanks again my anonymous friends!! I was just about to buy. Three weeks later stock goes from 11 to 5, as the "pros" got the news. Getting the picture? Why am I sending this? Do I care if you make money? Entirely selfish reasons: I dont want insiders and other knowledgeables to get po'd and go away. Many of them are already in questionable sec legal territory, and most definitely will be fired if they are caught. Anybody that posts info here, good or bad, is what makes me money. Yell and scream or put up obscenities if that makes you feel better, but please dont show off your ignorance and flame these guys, or accuse them of stock manipulation!! Better yet: get info or opinion you think is reliable, and post it.
