<<I'm glad the shares are not a run-away as I await new money and care to buy more soon, best roger >> I've got new money coming soon, too. CD is a great buy, no matter how you take your stake, IMO. CD: $ 16.81b I think now is the best time to buy CD since it has had its problems. The bad news is out, and the stock appears to have stablized. From here, I expect CD to WAY outperform the S&P500. S&P500 cash: 1062.41 CD: $ 16.94a VALUESPEC

Roger, I don't think CD will be a runaway until the brokerages load their boats, then their analysts tell the privileged clients, then the regular clients, then release their "new" analysis to all the great unwashed. I've seen this scenario repeatedly: after good news a stock will not move appreciably. We regular investors scratch our heads and wonder what's wrong with our analysis. Then, several days later, VROOOOOOOMMM. All the while the S/MMs were holding things steady while the "important ones" got situated. No, I don't view this as a conspiracy. Just a natural trading of favors amongst those whose livelihoods seem to depend upon one another. Besides, it helps all of us get our new money together for some great buys. Good trading to you.

Roger, Having a hard time with the math--17x1.33 = +or-less interest== Where are we?? Do rabbits also but the good ones do not multiply in a straight line. Request of me on order. Broker is a very attractive she. Newly licensed and an old friend. After TBR -major personal holding-and wdc that I await the consolidation or 12+month upswing on She pretty much accepts that I buy what no one else she represents wants. She calls me the Statue of Liberty Portfolio. Acorn Fund and Tweedy Browne sort of represent my thinking. Really have followed CD for awhile as bottom fishing for WINNERS in an overpriced market is where it is at for me.. Much ado 'bout nothing probably sums up this posting for me personally but I repeat: Your mutual interest helped give me the push to move on what has worked out -so far-pretty well-- the wave has not gone over our checkbooks and unless things change will can RIDE THIS HUMMER FOR QUITE AWHILE.. The value is going up in a down market!!!!! Best to all as we all attempt to profit. BOB
