This is exactly what I mean: biz.yahoo.com <<<I sold my entire BT position today for 85 1/2. Even though it looks very likely that the deal will go through at around $93 a share, I prefer to book the risk-free profit rather than sweating out any regulatory surprises.>>>

Reiterate strong buy recommendation: COST There has been some recent noise concerning "competition" from BJ's clubs. Without going into a lengthy tirade, I'll say that comparing BJs to Costco is like comparing Borland to Microsoft in the early 1990s. Costco now dominates the warehouse club category in every respect, and its growth continues unabated. I believe Costco will trade north of $100 a share in 12 - 18 months and my long-term price target is $200 - $250 a share.

Back up the truck on IFMX and CPU I strongly recommend steady and aggressive accumulation. Don't even THINK about selling should IFMX scrape 10 and CPU touch the mid to high teens in the next 90 days. Hang on for mid-1999. For those of you that use margin and are a bit nervous by the prices thrashing, I would recommend hedging a portion of your positions by selling out-of-the-money calls expiring in Q1 1999 (this is also a method to pay for margin interest).
