James: I have always performed better in the stock market by using the "curbside analysis" as well as what I call "common sense" analysis. I find that all too often, we dwell on the numbers too much and having worked for a large corporation at one time, I can tell you that the numbers are almost always not what they seem..... My greatest failure during the past few years happens to be BBY. I bought at 27 and sold one year later at 18 (I think it hit a low of 14). I forgot about BBY and one day a few months ago happened across it! Been kicking myself ever since but I can tell you that some of that money was invested in WMT, BA and INTC. Wish you continued success. Chip
