Looks like $22.5 will hold, just saw a 10,000 shr went thru on an uptick at $23 (bid 22 7/8, ask 22 15/16). I hope I didn't say that too early...good luck. Anyone saw the real demo of Shao Lin yet? How's the graphic compare to Tekken 3? The sample image on the Preview is kind of blurry. aC

<< MPT is based on the premise (flawed, in my opinion) that all the known information is already priced into the stock. >> OGM: Sounds like the efficient market theory, but I don't think Navellier's MPT is based on that. Rather, he uses proprietary measures of volatility (which he wants low), earnings momentum, relative strength (alpha, as I recall, which he wants high), analysts revisions, margin improvement, .... He builds a model around these parameters and trades it pretty mechanically. According to Mark Hulbert, he's done very well over the past 10 - 15 years. Jim Collins, co-conspirator in this apporach, has done very well too. Wade

Just to let you know I never said I used MPT Review to buy and sell THQI. Any newsletter is flawed by nature just as thinking fundamental analysis is always going to make you a lot of money on all your picks. The stock market is much more dynamic than that, and there is never one right way to invest in stocks that will always work. That said, each person uses different criteria to invest in stocks and not one is necessarily right or wrong. I happen to use a higher weight on Technical Analysis because that is what has worked for me. I do use fundamental analysis also but do not use that as my sole research. If you are successful with just fundamentals then so be it, but there are others out there that make buy sell decisions different than you and they can also be successful in the stock market. Ron
