Mike, In the past, you talked about SFE as an investment. What's your take on their new focus. Safeguard Scientifics Inc. (NYSE:SFE - news) rode the Internet stock rally to a new high Tuesday, jumping 25 percent after its chairman said the venture capital firm would focus on Internet investments. I think they may have gotten jealous of CMGI. <g> Regards, Bob

Mike do you invest in any retail stocks? I bought WTSLA at 17 a few months back and it has had a nice run up. But it still seems to be undervalued. It has a five year avg eps growth of 39.5% and they just announced earnings for the latest qtr of 95cts/shr up 51% from last year, yet it trades at a pe of only 22. I recently took some profits at 38, but I might buy them back tomorrow. Anyway, do you have any opinion on the stock, or on retail stocks in general? TIA briefing.newsalert.com
