Tim said Xyln would be taken over- he recommended it first in the single digits, if I recall.

Believe or not believe, it's up to you to pull the trigger. If you are talking about PAIR, I didn't see any changes in fundamentals when he put out the pick except for flying buyout rumors. If the rumors don't happen soon, the stock will take a hit. That's what happened to PAIR.

Tim also picked OMPT on rumor of buy out talks. The stock made a very nice run over the next few days and has never retreated to the price it was when he posted it. This is hardly a sign of a pump and dumper. MarkC.

Orion - Most of Tim Luke's picks are position trades - which are fundamentally great picks but do get influenced by market conditions, etc. (what stocks aren't!) As for me, Tim is the reason my account is up huge. I made 50-300% on each of PCCC, CMNT, SHRP, XYLN within a few months. Sounds like you expect Tim to read a crystal ball. Keep in mind the criteria for a position trade. I've been following Tim for over a year, and can assure you he's no pumper. Regards, Dave
