Thread, Have been placing buy orders on Champion CHB, Central Parking CPC, and Techne TECH - all I consider Buffet stock candidates - in the past few days, but the prices keep running away from me. I'm not pursuing them right now. Hopefully they'll drift back to my buy prices. I missed CPC by 1/8th on a limit several days ago, and CHB and TECH jumped like my bid was a frying pan. I'm noting that Ralston Purina RAL is falling back at $32 now, so am keeping my eye out here also. For those still interested in Boeing BA note that it is drifting lower now providing further buying opportunities. A new stock that I've seen popping up in the valuation spreadsheet is Caterpillar CAT. Jim, I know you're familiar with the ag equipment cyclicals. Do you follow CAT too? Still semi-bearish, and don't want to get too agressive right now, but holding so much cash is not helping my returns. Shane
