Previous Steady Gaining Stocks I have been posting and updating a list of stocks that had been previously posted as having made steady gains over the past twelve 25 day trading periods, in response to a request for such a list. I have been asked me to keep track of these periodically. Here is the latest update. SYMBOL ORIG ORIG CLOSE CLOSE WEEK PCT. CHANGE PCT. DATE PRICE PRICE PRICE CHANGE CHANGE FROM 9/4 9/11 WEEK ORIG AEOS 07/10 47.750 39.000 41.375 2.375 6.09 -6.375 -13.35 BBY 07/10 45.000 46.125 49.125 3.000 6.50 4.125 9.17 CMCSA 07/02 41.875 39.062 40.062 1.000 2.56 -1.812 -4.33 CMCSK 07/02 43.062 39.750 40.750 1.000 2.52 -2.312 -5.37 COX 07/02 47.250 47.125 48.125 1.000 2.12 0.875 1.85 CTL 08/07 49.375 46.000 49.125 3.125 6.79 -0.250 -0.51 CYCL 07/10 41.125 33.125 31.625 -1.500 -4.53 -9.500 -23.10 DRI 07/17 17.375 15.812 15.625 -0.188 -1.19 -1.750 -10.07 HD 07/10 48.500 38.312 40.250 1.938 5.06 -8.250 -17.01 LNCR 07/24 39.688 36.438 36.875 0.438 1.20 -2.812 -7.09 MERQ 07/02 43.750 37.375 37.375 0.000 0.00 -6.375 -14.57 OMC 06/24 49.000 46.938 48.188 1.250 2.66 -0.812 -1.66 PMS 08/07 45.938 41.875 44.125 2.250 5.37 -1.812 -3.95 RAD 07/10 40.500 36.812 37.750 0.938 2.55 -2.750 -6.79 SFSK 07/10 44.375 35.375 33.500 -1.875 -5.30 -10.875 -24.51 TCOMA 07/02 38.375 36.125 38.062 1.938 5.36 -0.312 -0.81 UMG 07/24 45.438 43.625 46.062 2.438 5.59 0.625 1.38 Notes: This list was begun in late June. I used criteria which would have required a stock to have performed well through the October, 1997 correction, the theory being that a stock that held through that period and continued to make gains would be resilient through a subsequent correction. Well, while I can't say much about resiliency, at least some of these made decent rebounds last week. Since I believe that these tickers have a good chance of a rebound when (and if) the market stabilizes, I will only be dropping stocks from this list (SFSK) which have fallen below the 200 dma. I will continue to drop from this list as support is broken. I would also note, however, that I dropped SKYW from last week's list, it dropped like a rock, and then I took a position in SKYW on Friday because it looked like it had been overbeaten, and I look for it to make back at least a few more points. So, just because I drop a ticker like SFSK from this study list, I will continue to watch it. The companies that made it on to this list in my view are good companies which all make for good trading opportunities. David
