DELPHI ORACLE...if you're looking to "bottomfish" net that have decline 50% or more...you might think about building positions by entering "scale-down" orders. If a 'net you like closed say, at 50, you might want to buy 50 shares at 49 1/2, another 50 at 49 1/8 and so on down to perhaps 46 or 47. Chances are you'll not catch THE bottom first time out. Just a thought. (Lee)

YNOT...I'd avoid Raging Bull...they're ALWAYS bullish and I've noticed recently that they've been filching buy recommendations from Jenna. Decent source of news may be THESTREET.com (you can get a 30-day free trial...if you like it, they charge $9.95/month. Reuters is good as is Quicken.com. Good luck. (Lee)

Contrarian thought for Market Gem thread: Most traders are reluctant to hold positions over a long, 3-day holiday weekend. I think a cogent argument could be made for doing just this. FWIW, an empiric observation of mine is that the market often opens strongly and gaps up after a long holiday weekend. Traders and investors have a chance to relax, sort out their picks and strategies, etc., and markets seem to reflect this "good mood". In short, it might make sense to track your top picks over the course of today's action, see which ones have the greatest decline, and buy them within the last 10-15 minutes of today's action. If I am correct and the market opens strongly on Tuesday, you will be holding your best positions and catch a strong "pop" on Tuesday's open. Just a thought.
