Telescan.. BEWARE.. a word of warning. Although I am a proponent of Telescan and have given much accolades on the excellence of their software. I've even mentioned them as a main source of my information in the article in OnLine Investor. I must mention the inadequacies and blatant inefficiencies of their billing department. If you subscribe to Telescan, please DO NOT give them your credit card number but insist that you be billed monthly for the charges incurred. I've tried numerous times to change my subscription status but to no avail.. I'm constantly billed at the original price although I've changed the type of account, despite numerous e-mail apologizing and promises of rectification nothing has been done. If I can have any kind of satisfaction in this 'ordeal' it will be in preventing others going through the same thing I have. We're talking about overbilling to the tune of 299.95 a month!

Threaders, please look at Monday's *Investor's Business Daily* on Page A13. The nearly full-page advertisement of AB Watley (my own personal discount broker and exclusive partner) has a nice mention of Market Gems in their ad. For any clients of AB Watley we have a super discount rate of $20 a month, $57.50 a quarter and $227.50 a year. AB Watley is our "premiere" partner. We have one 1 premiere partner at a time although we have other 'regular' internet partners [Zacks Investment research, Equis, Telescan, The Executioner, InvestIN.com, Silicon Investor, etc..].

e-mail.. I've been getting lots of e-mail about the current state of the market. Well I don't know when this 'correction' will finally be over. The McClellan Summation Index, Advance/Decline line, Volatility index and other general indexes seem to point to a general weakening of market and the sell off could continue although so many stocks have already reached bottom. By September these could be picked off one by one. Meanwhile in August just stick with "earnings plays" and you'll do better. The market is worse in that it seems to be undergoing lots of 'fakeouts' early morning gap-ups and then flat and negative for the rest of the session. The best defense during this correction is to hold fundamentally superior stocks. Stocks that have 'beaten the street'. I still adhere to the strategy that earnings plays will outperform the market, especially now since most of the companies reporting are surely not 'OVERBOUGHT' any longer. In the past this state of being OVERBOUGHT (i.e. AVEI, HBOC, LEH, etc) has negatively impacted the price pattern of the stock the day earnings have come out. In most cases these stocks have been up very nicely for days and even weeks (PSQL, CCL, CSCO) on anticipation but then succumb to 'selling on the news'. With the state of the current market I see that genuinely good 'surprises' will move the stocks and the funds, that are currently awaiting earnings news in 'nail biting' frenzy, will pick up these street beaters. Note the movement on Friday of stocks like PZZA, PEGA, APCC, that have beaten the street.
