Carl,

That piece of garbage of yours BFT is up over $2 a share today. With my cost averaging at $15 I am now in the black on this dog. I like it! It seems like the street is finally realizing that Bally Fitness had record earnings for July and August. Maybe September finished the quarter off right?

Cheers,

Steve

Carl,

The stock JD recommends is BFT, Bally Total Fitness, and has gone from the low single digits up as high as the 30's, until it's recent drop. It's now in recovery and may revisit it's old highs soon.

MONFA and SME were JD recommendations, but were sold between 6 months and 2 years ago. Prior to that, JD had them as holds, pending a better understanding of their direction.

Of course all the stocks Ralph mentioned show a negative result for the past 5 years... he doesn't want to mention the numerous ones that are large gainers because it weakens the already paper thin argument he's constructed.
