I am usually too early on everything ... so if you want to make money, find out what I am buying and short it. Then after 3 - 6 months, go long. Sure winner.
Bought COMS at well over 40 a looong time ago, CS at 13 a couple months ago, ASND at 60(ouch) more than a year ago when it was Cascade, MRL at 25 many months ago, and CMB at 49 -- only about a week or so ago. So, short the heck out of CMB and wait a couple months it will soar and if I'm lucky, I will break even.

Oh Tim ... I love your thread. Maybe I can buy something ahead of the pack for a change!! And if not, maybe I can learn patience, as well as not to marry a lot of these stocks (except for the following which I love)...
... bought LU at split adjusted price of about 29 (also bought it few weeks ago at 85 (after having sold it at 92), but I know this will come back). And WCOM (another favorite) at 25 and again at 46, INTC at 36 and sold half at 85. AT least 3have paid off. Have held for a long time.

Anyway, all kidding aside, thanks for the education.
