Scott

May I add my best wishes for this new concept

I have read every post your have made and have found you to be insightful, thoughtful, and of greatest importance, straight and honest

As you well know I took issue with portions of the previous thread (none of which I attributed to you); to wit:
-the perception promoted was that something well North of 90% of the alleged trades were profitable
-rarely if ever were posts made about the reality or actuality of losses
-it appeared to me that the primary interest was the promotion and marketing of a fee based letter which looked very much similar to the infomertials we see on the tube with get rich concepts and pictures of Jags and swimming pools in the background
-a shift to the trading of options, which is clearly for only the most experienced professionals and not for "newbies" who feel the need to pay for stock advice

I actually had no real problem with the marketing of a business; this is a capitalistic country where one can and should attempt to make a go of earning a living through any legal means; I just have a personal hangup with the idea that some might get hurt financially or otherwise by taking something at face value

To some extent I may have become a bit obsessed with reading the other thread; a total waste of my time and an exercise in futility where I found myself yelling at most of the posts that I read

So by starting this thread you have allowed me to kill that obsession by removing the bookmark on that one and adding this new one

Again, all the best

Scott - Thanks for publishing your list.

I wonder why you have not included any of the major airlines. Full passenger loads continue. Record earnings. Low oil prices. And, a possible strike at NWAC tonight which may drive its stock price down even further and present a better buying opportunity for its stock. DAL also looks to be in a good buying range now...

I welcome your thoughts....Skipperr

Scott,

If you can look at this, I'd appreciate your comments. I am long at
34 7/8, and it held up very well yesterday, but I think they also announced a continuation of buyback, so it makes me wonder...

Scott, I just bought a new 400MHs computer, installed a cable modem and a new H-P printer and I'm ready to go with your new thread. Good luck to you and to the many informed members that will contribute to this thread.
