Thread:- Anyone have any idea why exide (ex) went up 5.0 to 21.25 this last week. I see no news. Could something be breaking with electric cars at the Auto show? Take over? Internet site? Did the bunny die<g>? Cheers. Chris.

To ease anxiety, all of the posts Tim has put out after the bell, did not run up before the bell. There's time to jump in with the posting at the bell. My opinion is watch it for a bit and make a move. OMPT at the time of his post was about what it was at the previous day's close. The advance warning is nice, but not imperative. My opinion of course but do your own dd and see if I'm right. Glenn

Tim - also many most of your picks are not as thinly traded and "mo mo" (ie no value except that the crowd rushes in to buy and dump) oriented as TMs, and here we do more DD and don't all pile on in 20 minutes driving up the price 30%; then all dump 1-2 hrs later always leaving someone with the burning match. Thank you for your picks and efforts Dad

>>this is not the tmex thread....if possible i always try to put out what picks i like so "everyone" has a fair chance to make some money I don't think anyone would confuse this thread with that one....and just a clarification, wasn't looking for an unfair advantage, just wanted you to post the pick sooner rather than later, publicly. Just would be nice to do our own DD before the frenzy starts, like over the weekend; if you haven't already got you shares, than I understand, just didn't want to have to wait until next week if not necessary. Thanks Tim, keep up the good work. I much prefer this thread over any other on SI, and I don't even have to take a shower after visiting here....

Tim, Current issue of BWeek mentions OMPT as a possible buyout candidate. it is well known in the industry that they are "for sale". There is major consolidation going on in that group. With a 52 week high of $30 it would make sense that management would not do a deal for less than $20+, IMO. I got in at $11 and out at $14 1/16. Great call!! I will be back in Mon/Tue depending on how the market opens. Also, watching Yahoo as they release their number on Tue. That could be a real "bellweather" event if they don't beat the consensus. Interesting article on thestreet.com saying that basically Yahoo "managed the numbers" to beat the consenssus last quarter. (cooked the books?) Steve Davis

Regarding (nasdaq: RRRR) Tim: Yesterday posted you on Rare Medium. Since that post to you, I created a new "rrrr" thread. Please take a look at the "new" thread I started for Rare Medium Corp (Nasdaq: RRRR). The prior thread didn't accurately reflect RRRR's current direction. This is the thread subject address Subject 24792 I have provided my dd that I did this morning. I have also set some emails to IR asking for a better break down of shares(authorized / outstanding / float/ and institutional ownership). I have some conflicting info on the share counts. One account I read had nearly 18% owned by institutions. Stock is currently trading at 4.5. Thank you for your time and attention. Sincerely, ztect

To: TokyoMex From: Tim Luke Monday, Dec 14 1998 11:44PM ET joe, i think i got one hell of a pick but i don't want to step on your toes and post it on your thread but i pan on putting it out 1/2 hour before the bell via PM.....can you buy in pre-market To: TokyoMex From: Tim Luke Sunday, Nov 22 1998 7:29PM ET tm, lets just let this BS go, i'm just very stressed over my father's illness and i guess i'm taking it out on anyone i can. sorry... i really have no reason to have a beef with you....you do your thing and i do mine tim btw- this is not posted to kiss your ass as i'm sure you already know i just think its a waste of my energy to be bashing back and forth. To: TokyoMex (14704 ) From: Tim Luke Sunday, Nov 22 1998 7:47PM ET Reply # of 39339 Joe, Please accept my apologies for all the bashing that i have done today and most of all in the past....i'm very stressed with my Dad's health and I guess i was trying to vent my pain at you (which in no way is an excuse for my actions). I was wrong and I'm sorry, and it won't happen again. i know you never started anything with me today or in the past and it will end now. Tim To: TokyoMex From: Tim Luke Saturday, Nov 28 1998 9:25PM ET hi joe, i must say that i'm gaining a lot of respect for you....even though i don't have the size of following that you do i can sure relate to the pressure you must have....i'm really sorry for all the shit that i gave you in the past and it is the past. regards tim
