Paul...just posing one caveat (which may be built into the share price) with TOY: Per Value Line 26% of '97 sales were overseas, with I believe a major % of that in Japan. Of course, there are also positives, in that the strong dollar aids buying of foreign goods, and the potential of online shopping mgmt. is attempting to exploit. I also had about a one year holding period, and got lucky, exiting last Jan. It used to be a stock which traded like clockwork by the calendar - look at its chart. There is no clockwork, however, in this market! Best, Wallace

Any time someone posts here on this thread and says something to the effect "my gut tells me"--- you can be sure there's a crossed wire between that someone's value analysis and their ability to start or maintain a position based on their mental processes. Get screwed up between head and heart. Lousy way to invest IMO. Paul, I agree. That is why I made the comment - I think that if I am putting out ideas for others, I should also let them know of any potential weaknesses on my part that may influence my own actions on those ideas.
