I thought you kept up with the CPQ thread, but I guess maybe you don't. If you did, you would have seen the following posts (note the dates)... Out of CPQ totally at 48. Also out of two position trades in Dell. In fact, out of most of my techs (AMAT sold recently at 68). Still own Intel. Into Halliburton at 28 and change a short while ago. No Jim, I'm not interested in your money, I'm only interested in making enough at this game so that I can live off it. So far, so good! It is nice to expose BS on the threads though!! Any other questions???? John To: Elwood P. Dowd (48674 ) From: John Koligman Wednesday, Feb 17 1999 11:04PM ET Reply # of 52830 Hi Elwood, I cleared out right around the time of this post to you. I also bailed on a position trade in Dell not long after. Only tech I'm still holding is AMAT and INTC. I also sold LSI not long ago, but missed some of LSI's move to the mid 20's. I would like to trade CPQ again though. I did not bail due to any 'predictive genius' on my part, I just felt the techs had quite a move, was worried about a pullback, and wanted to protect the CPQ profits I had at the time. I think I averaged out around the 48 level. Regards, John To: Elwood P. Dowd (46486 ) From: John Koligman Monday, Feb 1 1999 1:43PM ET Reply # of 48676 Elwood, I've been lightening up on CPQ and will continue to do so. I've gotten a bit 'tired' waiting. Also, I have to be honest and state that I have made MORE bucks in two Dell trades I have laid on (one for 10k shares in December, and one for the same amount of shares in January that is still on, although will probably be sold soon) than I have in holding CPQ all these months. I will most likely trade CPQ, although right now the market to me looks risky in the tech area. This advance is getting more and more narrow, and the hysteria in the few stocks still going strong is just crazy. Dell is up 9+ as I write this. I may start fishing around in some of the beaten up high quality oil service stocks, like HAL and SLB. Will certainly plan on hanging out here though, this is one of the best threads on SI! I hope CPQ makes a strong move in the near future, and all the best!!!
