Ken -- "Dragging the private mail out was wrong." Normally, I would agree. If it was a matter of only a single PM from Sergio, I would not have publicly posted it. However, I was getting tired of his PM diatribes against me whenever I on occasion posted publicly on this thread. The best way I knew to stop it was to expose his activity. I regret the need to do so, but enough was enough. Sergio -- Obviously, your easy-going, responsible public persona does not jive with the immature PM's you have sent me. So others can judge whether your private and public attacks against me have been appropriate, and whether my attempt to stop them have been appropriate, do I have your consent to post some of your other PM's to me? I'm very willing to do so, if needed. Frankly, I think others who want to participate in this thread should know that they run the risk of very inappropriate PMs from Sergio if they do so. To Mike and Gary, is this what you intend for those who participate in your thread? Did you know Sergio was doing this? I remained quiet for some time about his PMs, but finally had enough and took steps to stop it. I'm sorry if that offended others. Hopefully, this will be the end of this matter. All I want is for Sergio to stop the harassing PMs and the public, personal attacks and let us all continue to post and debate ideas in a civil and mature manner. -- Jim

Ken, maybe it's a good idea to ask Doug R. for his opinion of BOP. He's done some studying on CATS. It's got to bounce some time. What else Ken ? Sergio

Ken, nice recovery on OMX. Take a look at the new thread on SI on OMX Subject 22830 OMX deal in $25-35 range. One of the broker's prediction on the OMX buyer is BBY and OMX is dealing in 0.5 - 0.7 BBY share value for each OMX share. If that happens then OMX will go higher in $25-35 range based upon current value of BBY share. OMX is an excellent company and its shares currently trading at the very low end of 52 week range. Down side risk is almost negligible compared to the upside potential. Short ration on this stock is very high and since company already confirmed about the marger talks on firday the stock of OMX is easily going to go higher above $15 any way and if merger goes through then it will be a huge gain. Company news about merger talks can be found at: newsalert.com. Also came accross this in Barron's: OfficeMax (OMX-NYSE) by BT Alex. Brown (13 3/4 , August 11) Buy. On track to open 120 new superstores by the end of fiscal 1998 (January). New-store prototypes and remerchandising programs that are currently being rolled out should boost productivity and margins. A low relative valuation and attractive industry fundamentals warrant a Buy investment rating.
