Except for short positions, I have lost much more money than I ever made on small and micro caps. Primarily , if I'm long , I'd rather do it on large caps than small/micro caps - much more predictablility.

I think this is a very true statement for the majority, certainly it is for me, which is why I typically stay in large caps.

Regarding the info that you sent on EMC, yes I did previously read that. It seems that here recently the media is picking up on EMC as it appears on more and more radar screens. I certainly have no complaints!!!

MarketWatch reported planning stock offer

NEW YORK (Reuters) - MarketWatch.Com could go public in late January and grab
as much investor attention as some of its predecessors in the Internet world, according
to a columnist in the weekly business newsmagazine, Business Week.

''Some pros believe the stock will blast off after the opening -- just like the recent IPOs
of Internet outfits that serve robust niche markets,'' said Gene Marcial in the
newsmagazine's latest issue.

''They expect MarketWatch.Com will be another uBid,'' he cited an unidentified fund
manager as saying in his column, Inside Wall Street.

An online auctioneer, uBid Inc. (UBID.O) has seen its stock soar from its initial public
offering price of $15 on Dec. 4 to a high of $188 a week later. It has since receded to
trade at 112, down 7 on the day, in late morning trade on Thursday.

MarketWatch.Com, a real-time online business news provider, has already sought
permission from the Securities and Exchange Commission to go public. It has planned to
offer 2.8 million shares between $10 and $12 each.

Data Broadcasting Corp. (Nasdaq:DBCC - news) (DBCC.O) and CBS Corp.
(NYSE:CBS - news) (CBS.N), which created the provider in 1997 as a joint venture,
would each own 38 percent of it after the IPO.

MarketWatch.Com's website offers news, analysis, and other financial and market
information.
