WAVX wavering....

WF, WAVX is still a very shaky stock. It is a great concept stock with a great story, but the story has been aorund for many years now, and WAVX still has no revenue. I think plug and play devices is the quicker fix for managing Internet transactions. It will take years for the boxmakers to come to terms with WAVX.

You may have missed it, but I got back into DRIV at $28 after the Wal-Mart news.

My 1999 WildAss Speculative Portfolio...

Here are some extremely risky stocks where you will either lose a lot of money, or you will retire early. This is dangerous stuff so tread carefully!

For example, Long Distance Direct Holdings (LDDI)is a reseller of long distance services purchased from MCI and ATT. This company used to do well, but they sold minutes to some bad accounts and we left owing telecoms 5 million dollars (the company has negative shareholder value). They also run a psychic hotline, but revenue stream is uncertain.

But the kicker is that LDDI is starting PowerChannel, a FREE TV based Web service. In exchange for cable hookup, tuner and keyboard, the user has to fill out a 1/2 hour questionarre about viewing/buying habits. LDDI will sell this information to marketing departments for big $$$, much like Nielsen ratings are sold.
