MB- a quick question. I read a post on one of the driller threads that suggested selling the big service co's that had run quite a bit and buying, with the proceeds, little service companies that had not run as much on the theory that all boats would rise eventually. Given that Hal- for example- has taken out its December high I really am not sure I should sell it. I have added smaller service companies along the way- but am afraid to trade these stocks as they are SUCH a value right now, and any conflagration in the Mideast could really move them. How do you trade the oil stocks (if you trade them?) I am tempted to just hold them for a year. Is this sheer INSANITY?

I hope you are right -- about Impala going higher -- Impala and some of that Asian junk are helping out this poor boy's portfolio lately. :-) Now if we could get gold off the pot ...

You got ESP or somethin'? I got to get you to e-mail me next time you do that. <ng> cnnfn.com I think I would have sold 3/3 of IMPAY and bought back later.

To All, Funny stuff. I was nominated for Message Board Personality of The Year on Stock-Dogs.com. I think that is something like The Miss Congeniality Award they give the ugliest girl at The Miss America Contest. I am sure some of the other nominees are also from SI, but the only one I recognized was Tastes Like Chicken, who definitely has the best name. I am somewhat non-plussed to be mentioned on a site that is for day traders, since I don't believe in day trading. But, hey, any mention is good. <G> MB
