JDN...some very good advice to Garcia. Unfortunately, get rich quick schemes can be very alluring. I wonder how many investors/traders set portfolio strategies, with realistic expectations for returns. Earlier this year (CPQ@30) some persons on the thread felt a 30% return for CPQ, during DEC acquisition, would be very positive. Others were disappointed that CPQ didn't hit 70 by July. Due diligence and a judicious perspective of reality can often be overlooked in the market frenzy. Loki I like your suggestion for PLAB. A health care mutual fund, VGHCX, is also a good investment, considering the demographics.
