John, welcome here!

I'm interesting to analyse and discuss your theory asap, and I'm sure, I will not be the only one.

For today (better tonight, it's 22:45 here in Holland) - it was a hard (but happy) day for me - I'm just too tired.

However, obviously it's a great pleasure that you've find the way over here and I hope for some interesting ideas from you.

Hope you all had a great day too?! Tomorrow more? Happy trading!

John, Re: "membership 'til death"

Yours or SI's <g>

I think you will enjoy this little corner of SI -- our sandbox. Let me add my voice to those that say welcome. As you undoubtedly noticed as a lurker, as I did before you, here you will find a unique blend of investment sytles and geographic diversity. For me, It has represented a great place to share ideas -- Synectic.

Your style reminds me a lot of Warren Buffett's investment style. Now if he starts buying PFE ...

I'm leaving on a 1 1/2 week trip this weekend and it is always painful to get out of the office. But then, I have carted 6 bags of trash out of the office as I've been looking for things. Probably should go on trips more often. I'd have a neater office.

Again, Welcome.

Berney

John, I would propose 4 more groups: OTM, OOT, MTPCM, LU and 2S2E$

1)Over the mountain - companies with decreasing resumes and increasing numbers of excuses like INTC (increasing energy-consumption, weight and size of CPU's instead the power)

2)Out of trend - all the world burns his stinking sportshoes but NKE thinks it's a question of price (more probably hula-hoop will boom this year)

3)Machines that print counterfeid money - companies producing products which cannot fulfill the promised purpose like PFE. (you cannot change a frustrated wife to a loveful one just eating blue pills.)

4)Living undeads - companies with products nobody pays a cent for like YAHOO (23800 links without one single you was searching for)

5)Too stupid to earn money - you have the by far best position but cannot make profit: worldchampion BA (proofing that military structures are the most inefficient organisation-system of all)

The winner of the bowl is ORACLE. This seems to me the optimum-short-candidate. My provocating opinion: They produce absolute yesterday-products for senior-homes. Only COBOL is more oldfashioned. They cannot provide true working business-solutions. All they still can cash in comes from old, very old customers.

Happy trading!
