Wizzie, Happy Holiday to you and your family, and to each every special member of this great message board. FWIW, Preston, I've been using the "Flying Five" Dow Dogs strategy for many years now. It has been an important piece of my overall long term investment plan. Along with Chartcraft's influence on my investment philosophy (and later Tom's), the Dow Dog's Flying Five strategy has had great meaning to me. I found the book; "Beating The Dow" by Michael O' Higgens & John Downes, at the Strand bookstore in lower Manhattan in the summer of '93. It's one of the most important investment books I've ever read. I do not use any p&f to enhance the effectiveness of the strategy. The strategy doesn't need any help. From 1973 - 1997 the 5 lowest priced stocks of the 10 high yielders (otherwise known as the Flying Five) has had a total return of 11,813%, and an annual return of 21.1%. Few portfolio managers that run mutual funds or hedge funds can lay claim to such an impressive, consistent, track record. JMHO, Bruce
