How do you feel about those? Will they see the light of day?

MB,

Now looking to other sectors that are overvalued and companies where my measly dollar buys me more time, yet still a reasonable shot at a roundtripper. WMT would seem to have a lot of room on the downside.

Any other retailers which have you taking a second look?

I did notice that most reports are downplaying the missed expectations for retailers. Do you know of any retailers that call 'em like they see 'em? Trying to find one that will admit in Q1 that Christmas wasn't so hot.

And btw, thanks for the all time you've spent on the thread lately, and especially for answering what must be mundane and trivial questions from novice contrarians like me. I've used your material in friendly holiday party conversation with the "under-30 techy know-it-all about investing," crowd and it's really fun.

Best,
Doug
