Hello IIC,
I saw your comment on BMHC thread about real estate market. My gut feeling is that there are some areas in USA were housing prices have appreciated way too much. I hae been trying to figure out what might be a best play in anticipation of correction in local real estate market. One that I can think of is bying 2006 PUTS for housing stocks. Any idea as to what might be other good play?
Thanks in advance for your suggestion.
Best Regards,
Stocks.
Might want to wait till there are a lot of foreclosures and go into real estate yourself...My guesstimate is 1 to 1 1/2 years

Now who was the one who said they wouldn't be surprised if CAFE never trades again? Of course we could always see it in the pinks.
17:11 CAFE Host America: Nasdaq has informed Host that its securities will be delisted (14.26 )
Host America has been notified by The Nasdaq Stock Market that based on a review of public documents and information provided by Host to Nasdaq related to the issuance of a July 12, 2005 press release, the Staff of Nasdaq Listing Investigations and Listing Qualifications has determined that Host no longer qualifies for inclusion in the Nasdaq Stock Market and that its securities are therefore subject to delisting. Nasdaq Marketplace Rules 4300 and 4330(a)(3) provide the Staff with broad discretionary authority to deny continued inclusion of securities in order to maintain the quality of, and the public's confidence in, The Nasdaq Stock Market. Accordingly, Nasdaq has informed Host that its securities will be delisted from Nasdaq at the opening of business on August 16, 2005, unless Host requests a hearing in accordance with the Marketplace Rule 4800 Series. Host will request a hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel to review the Nasdaq Staff determination. Any such hearing request will stay the delisting of Host's securities pending the Panel's decision.
Traded PDLI +.30 and HOMS -.06 yesterday. I was 5up and 4dn on daytrades last week and I ended red overall. It's tough to make up one horrible trade.

Doug, I was interested in discussing real estate also, particularly as it pertains to the LA area.
Conventional wisdom says that there is not much supply, at least in the coastal area. But I see more and more dense new develpoments being crammed into limited space, often in proximity to major streets.
You familiar with the old naval housing in San Pedro (actually right around the corner from where I live)? They want to build 2600 residential units (up to SIX STORIES) in the space where currently 200-something vacant houses sit.
Some developers wanted to build about 1500 units in Torrance until the residents complained loudly enough that city council finally told the developers to take a hike (Thank God!).
Any such activity going on around you? I still see the same open marsh off of Culver near the Marina every time I go by that way. Don't know much about it, but I'm sure that if nothing is being built up on it, chances are it's somehow IMPOSSIBLE to build on it.
So not only do we need to look at foreclosures; we also need to keep tabs on all this re-zoning crap going on. Makes me happy for my quarter-acre lot, although $$MM$$ and everyone else back east would certainly laugh at it :D

Join a group and fight it like a dog. Those developers aren't living in cramped spaces. They're out in the country with a 8" electrified fence around their 5 acre plots. They don't give a shit about you or anyone else as long as they get what they want.

A quarter acre? Is that all you have??? BWAAAAAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!!!
Just kidding BJ.
I'm fortunate to live on a 3/4 acre, lakefront lot, but all of the new developments are putting homes on the smallest lot possible. They have a minimum space of 14' beteen houses and a 20' deep back yard.
I guess the good part is that you don't have much grass to cut.

The old Naval housing...yes, I know where it is. My area...already crammed with apts and condos...In fact, I live in a townhouse myself....well, my wife lives here too :)
There were a lot of protests about the Marina area(Playa Vista)...Protected land...Much of it is developed now...where the old Hughes Aircraft airport was(EXPENSIVE too!!!)...I used to go down there w/ my binocs...birdwatching...Even 10 years ago you would see some cool birds. When I was a kid my dad and I would go fishing in La Ballona Creek and catch halibut down there(circa 1958 or so).
My activist days are over...Even though I was a pretty "Conservative" activist...I don't know what is going on w/ the Ballona Wetlands anymore...There was give and take...so I assume some of that area will remain undeveloped for many years for the bird migrations...Down by Culver and Lincoln.
1/4 acre...You must be a MULTI-MILLIONAIRE.
Anyway...Generally, in the Real Estate Market I believe the builders will be the last to go...that's when there will be an over supply. Projects planned a year ago have not even started....by the time they are finished I think there will be some bargains...along with the foreclosures....Doug(IIC)
PS...Here's a little tip as far as watching the Real Estate market...look at what resort properties, which are usually 2nd homes are doing...The coastal props are not the best indicator because there is no room to build more(except condo types)...look at the prices in the Desert or Mountains where there is still a lot of land available...Those are the first ones that drop in many cases.

Doug good tips regarding vacation property. I need to start thinking about staking my retirement claim within the next 10 years.

Doug, the last report I see is 7/31.
Never mind, now 8/7 is appearing.
I'm thinking about deleting the old reports...I have them saved on my hard drive anyway and most are on CD... I leave them up so people can go back and see what I said...Whether I was Right or Wrong.
Also, I type them all in Word...Then I paste and copy. The host I use for Mr. B allows regular type mixed with HTML mixed with their own Beginner's Semi-HTML...But I have a template saved....I use all 3.
I'm thinking that it might be better to reverse the order of the Weekend Reports...Newest first???
On some of my other sites...like my online dating service site...I have to do everything in HTML...I'm not Mr. Webmaster...but I don't make that many changes so it is not too time consuming...Later...Doug(IIC)

If your uncle farms beef, I probably know him .... Beautiful down here ain't it Webs? .... You in VA?
Actually my handle "Lyehopper" is the name of a hollow between two mountains on my farm. Old timers pronounce it Lyehoppa Hollah .... The Hollow got it's name back in the 20's when the man who once owned my farm and another adjacent farmer (a notorius moonshiner) were asked by their wives what the metal container/hopper they had built and hauled up in the hollow was for. The pair said they were cooking up some Lye (soap) in it, and told the women to mind their own buisness, they said it was just a Lye Hopper. Thus the name Lyehopper Hollow eventially stuck ..... Still a little "Lye" being cooked up in these hollows from time to time.lol

lye,

Depends on exactly where it is. In the hotty golf comunities 3/4 acre is $100-150k. At the hot spots on Smith Mountain Lake 1/2 acre lakefront might be $1 million!
Up Lyehopper Hollow you can pick up some prime land that's about 25 minutes from Roanoke for 12-18k per acre depending on how much you want. You'll have cattle and good old redneck folks for neighbors .... But you can shoot white tail deer from your bathroom window with your favorite 30-06 while you take a dump if you'd like to and no one will care.lol If you want 100 acres or more budget in $5-7k per acre (might include some mountain land). I've paid as little as 1k per acre but that was in 95. If you can stand being an hour away from town there's still some $2-3k per acre land out there (large tracts).

I'm a builder up here in NJ. We build high end custom homes and renovations. Always looking for something distressed, something that somebody needs to get out of, or land, especially cheap land. NJ is getting played out an I've been thinking of liquidating what I have here an relocating somewhere else. Was thinking down near Charlotte, S. Carolina area. Not in the city but an hour or so from the city or coastline.
Been down to your area an it's a beautiful part of the country in the Blue Ridge Mountains. At this point all I really need is a laptop and a good broadband connection.

Ski, check out Clarksville VA (area). HUGE lake there, My bro & me, our boys fish there often .... a lot of good lakefront property that's yet to be developed. Small town but the "Yankee invasion" is underway there. Gotta hate them "damn Yankee's" attitudes... but love their $$$$ ... No offense to you Ski, you seem like a pretty decent Yank .... Pack up your money and come on down.lol

I grew up in a small backwoods town called Lakehurst in NJ. We lived in the woods an I grew up with a healthy respect for hunting, fishing, and trapping from early on. Still bowhunt and small game and do alot of fishing, mostly surf fishing, for stripers in the spring and fall. When I hit the Army they loved me on point for my ability to move about and notice movement in the jungle. Much to my detriment it seems I always got to run point. Love the woods and nothing better than to sit in a tree stand quietly and just observe.
Sound like a real nice area you got down there. Have to agree about the Yankee attitudes. Alot of us think our shit don't stink but couldn't pour piss out of a boot if it came down to living in the woods or off the land.
In 1978 I had a lady friend, Liza Gore was her name, she was black and had 106 acres in Whitings, NJ that she used to pig farm. Me an a couple of buddies farmed it for a couple of years and raised hogs. We had the largest organic farming operation in NJ at the time. My hair was down to the middle of my back in those days an I was a veritable wild man. Those were good time. I lived in a tent on her property for two years. No running water or facilities. I just needed to air out for a few years after the army and Nam.
1/4 acre lot WHY?!!!
Because it beats the hell out of renting :D
I need to give your idea some thought. One question, what jobs do they have in that area for a mechanical engineer?

If your uncle farms beef, I probably know him .... Beautiful down here ain't it Webs? .... You in VA?
My Uncle inherited his farm from his inlaws, after his wife died. About half of my relatives live in and around Roanoake/Salem, so there's a good chance that you probably know some of them. My Grandpa grew apples and produce and used to sell them at the farmers market in Roanoake.
My Grandpa drowned in his farm pond when I was two years old, so I never got to know him, but we used to visit my Grandmother on occasion while I was growing up. I haven't been there in quite a few years, but I've been thinking that it's about time I get up there and see everyone.
I live in Florida, but I will always have a connection with Roanoake. I may have to consider buying some land up there one day.
Ok IIC, I'll give you your thread back now. lol

I've been watching VTIV for a few weeks and knew they were reporting yesterday morning. Almost took the plunge and gambled last Friday and took a position but couldn't bring myself to do it right in front of reporting earnings. Yesterday the first thing I did was look on Briefing.com to check out their report and the ship had left the dock without me. Good for you Doug. I didn't even get to benefit from the gap up in the contest because they opened above 23 or so. Glad you make something off of it.

Nice job Doug. Interesting that the pullback has been on very light volume.

First of all Doug .... Please, "NEVER" be concerned with "stepping on my toes" .... I speak my mind and respect those who do the same .... I Have great trust in my key people .... I choose them carefully, I test them in lesser positions, then I (usually) promote from within my organization. I pay my folks well and want them to find joy in their work .... I desire all employees at my company to be happy. If they ain't .... I fire their ass, pronto!LOL
I'm 42, I started my company in 1985 from "scratch" .... Here's how my "global picture" looks .... I employ about 90 people .... I spend about 10 hours a week at the office .... I spend the majority of my time with my family, I'm very involved with my religious activities, I run my beef cattle farm (with 2 good farm hands) ride my Harley, fish, hunt, etc .... and trade stocks the rest of the time (on two laptops.lol) .... Shaquille O'Neal just looked at a farm within 8-9 miles of my house (just this week!) to do basically the same thing I do every day (I can't sell him mine, since I only own 500 acres, plus I'm too attached to it) .... I take it you've heard of Shaquille O'Neal?

The big time for me would be to upgrade from my 17' Cape horn to a 36' Boston Whaler.

I had a college roommate who's idea of hitting the big time was having his own pharmacy , not a business, but a personal pharmacy. He often put on a lab coat when sampling the meager products he could afford as a student.
Whatever the big time is, money probably has little to do with it. Some of the most miserable s.o.b's I've ever met were also the wealthiest.

Just out of curousity, and maybe we should move it to another thread, but what does everyone consider the "big time" as far as worth and what you are doing? How much money is big time and does power come into the equation? What are your thoughts on what is the big time?
Hey Ski .... About two decades ago I defined "The big time" much differently than I do now. Then it meant "grab it all and grab it now", and take no prisioners!!! .... In the past 10+ years I've seen some good friends / associates die .... some very near my age .... Some rather wealthy .... You know? They're just plain DEAD! .... I think about that .... Their money does them NO good now.
The "Big Time" to me means: Having "worth" beyond material assets .... Living a moral honest life, low in stress. Build and KEEP a good name (with God and with neighbor) .... Having a good marrage, Loving my family and having them love me .... Being debt free. Having job satisfaction .... Knowing I work hard and smart .... I don't worry too much about money. Money is a by-product of hard work and good planning .... just like poverty is a by-product of laziness and a lack of planning.

IIC,
I don't think "crack" or "crack houses" existed when I was in college. My roommate dabbled in certain other products that involved smoke along with what was dispensed from the school clinic. He knew all the symptoms and the remedies that would be subscribed for a "cure".

Well...My lists beat those "Other" claims that nobody can ever verify by 82.36965% last year...LOL
But seriously...No, there is no reason to track the performance. My lists are not recommendations. On my Weekend Report I list stocks that meet certain criteria...that's it. Doesn't mean they are good. For example, I list one in my Flat Base/Lo Volume category...unless it makes an upward move on volume...it is not worth looking at if that's the type you like. Or, on the Cup w/ Handles...and yes I know none were "Classic" today...If it doesn't reach it's "Flash Point" on vol...then forget it if that's what you are looking for.
My lists are simply "Watch Lists" or for further Due Diligence if you like the basic parameters. I just offer them as timesavers.
Now, my Daily Watch Lists are actually ones that I watch at the open for possible Day Trade purposes...but over 90%+ never make it past the first 1/2 hour for me...I watch them in RealTime and then set up my "Concentrated" list during the first 1/2 hour ea. day. Plus I add others that I want to watch too that I find early or am told about at the chats, news sites or IM'd by my trading partner.
To be honest...my weekend report is fun to prepare...but the lists are mostly for others...Guess I'm just a nice guy ;) But actually, it does help me because when I'm searching for stuff or running scans I find a few that are of interest to me....Best, Doug(IIC)

Thanks NB...I appreciate it. 'Ya know, I've met over 60 people in person that I originally met on the Net at stock Forums since '98...I have met better traders/investors than I and worse...But I never met one who was not a nice person IMO...I think that is important.
I met my Trading Partner via the IBD Forums over 2 years ago...God Forbid...But we are both reformed...LOL...I enjoy kickin' her ____ but it doesn't happen that often...But it gives me something to shoot for...Doug(IIC)

WASHINGTON, Aug 16 (Reuters) - Surging energy costs drove U.S. consumer prices up in July at the sharpest rate in three months, according to a government report on Tuesday that highlighted the impact of costlier imported oil.
The Consumer Price Index, the most widely used gauge of inflation pressures, climbed 0.5 percent last month after an unchanged reading in June. It was the biggest increase in monthly consumer prices since a matching 0.5 percent jump in April and topped Wall Street economists' forecasts for a 0.4 percent rise.
But so-called core inflation, which strips out volatile food and energy items, inched up just 0.1 percent for a third straight month. Over the past 12 months, this closely watched measure of consumer prices has risen a moderate 2.1 percent.
Energy prices increased 3.8 percent in July, a sharp reversal from declines of 0.5 percent in June and 2 percent in May. Gasoline prices jumped 6.1 percent. Oil and gas prices have been plumbing uncharted territory in recent weeks and show little sign of letting up.
Food prices edged up 0.2 percent after a 0.1 percent gain in June.
Apparel costs and new motor vehicle prices both logged big declines, with clothing's 0.9 percent drop the biggest since April 2001 and the 1.0 percent slide in new motor vehicle prices the largest since January 1975, driven lower by manufacturer price cuts.

For fiscal 2006, the company anticipated to earn $1.37 - $1.42 per share and a comparable store sales increase in the mid single-digit range. Twelve analysts have earnings per share consensus estimate of $1.41 for the year.
Hibbett Sporting also declared a three-for-two stock split, to be effected in the form of a 50% stock dividend. The company said that the new shares would be distributed on or about September 27, 2005, to stockholders of record on September 9, 2005. As a result of the stock split, the company will have about 35.7 million shares of common stock outstanding.

The company also revealed that Mickey Newsome would continue to serve as its Chairman and CEO and Brian Priddy will serve as its President.

How---how did you drop change on BCON early? Late--I understand that. Did you see it fall .30 in about 1 minute? When you are trading 30 million shares, it seems to me that somebody just dumped 1 million all at once. Or maybe 2 million. . . .
NAZ and Dow charts, S&P, all sick. I got two more warnings tonight on market weakness.
I am full daytrade only mode, except for a few Canroys.

See the attempted move around 9:55am EDT...I think I paid the high on BCON at that time.
Yes...I saw it fall late...I was tempted a number of times...especially around 4.70...but I stuck to my guns and stayed away.

IB wouldn't let me short the dog. I saw it peak on the one minute chart, and when I hit the button a pop up came on and said, "Whoa, buddy! No shorting this dog! FCC rules."

Noticed your comments on Mr.Market's latest 5. What is your volume requirement? I'm thinking 100,000. Also I agree some of those charts don't look like Mr.Market material.

I don't necessarily have a strict volume requirement...some low vol one's can really explode...but generally 100k is correct. On the lo volume one's I would normally only buy on a day when it really moves.
Mr. Breakout is updated. Please feel free to take a look.

Hey J...looks like an interesting one...bookmarked it...thx...You can NEVER get too much news...when I get back from vacation I will start cataloging all these sites...Might even be able to sell the catalog???...I have over 1,000 free sites that I think are worthwhile...Obviously, there is no way I can follow them all...and many seem to vanish...but I was thinking that if I track 'em...
Things got back to normal today...LOL...I make some bux and after I sell ... they fly...But it was OK...although I think we see some rather large downside coming on the Naz(2070's soon???) ...hopefully when I'm on vacation...Today: JOYG -.10 IPII +.66(and then it takes off) NGAS +.23 ENER -.07 ENER again +.53...IIC

I enjoy watching the show for entertainment and sometimes a good idea.
The worst part is the Enzyt(penis enlargement) commercials they play over and over. What is that saying about the demographic watching the show? :-? The commercials for pompus Donny Deutsch is tough for me to see too. I need to tivo it.

Got back last night...went on a Carib cruise. It was nice...Fortunate that we had good weather too.
Just trying to play catch up today...only peeked at the markets a couple of times. Read a book "Beginner's Guide to Day Trading Online"

Wife said she saw smoke in the direction of the refineries today. I didn't hear anything yet, though, so I guess it wasn't a big deal.

They were burning off excess gases...they had this automated telephone thing to call South Bay residents to stay inside...2 or 3 refinery guys were hospitalized when a smoke stack got clogged.

Anyone notice the new features at DGO last week?
I mentioned that I heard there would be changes many months ago...but I did not know what they would be...Well, I'm a bit disappointed...They offer some Stochs...but not R/T on the intradays...actually not at all on the intras...Stockcharts is far superior in that respect and dozens of other techs...I do like the multiple window feature...but the other stuff; e.g. Comparison Charts I have no use for.
Much of the "Enhanced" Stuff that they mention was already there...In fact, I think all of it was???...Nice that you can now annotate...I guess that's OK for people that like to talk to themselves since you are prohibited from copying/posting them anywhere...unlike Stockcharts...Oh well, they didn't raise the price...YET!!!

I assume you all got the notice from Milberg, Weiss et. al. today regarding the Class Action suit against DHB.
I don't plan on reading it...I get so much of this Class Action Cr*p...I never got anything from any of them anyway...Maybe DHB was fraudulant???...I don't know...I made some bux off of it...But, I think the class action suit ought to be against all these 2 bit lawyers...they end up being the only one's that get anything out of these suits IMO

IIC, the charts don’t get much better then ASGN’s IMO. One of few stocks still showing the momo. Nice gap up in Aug and this thing has been running tight ever since. It has also been running the 10 day simple moving average. What do you see that is not looking good? Where would you consider a nice pull back to be? Or a possible entry point on ASGN?

Watch HTX but only if it moves on volume
Lost 30 cents today on MNTA...But KG still hanging tough...and FORD did well...I pd 18.30's the other day...So my only complaint is that I couldn't be there on the market bounce.

Whoa!!!...Support levels not much change...But Resistance at 2100 is
Really STRONG...at least according to my scan which considers among
other stuff:
Highs/Lows
Congestion
Fibs on trends
MACD
RSI
Stochs
I have not seen this much resistance in quite a while...Now remember
that I look short term...sometimes minutes...sometimes days...But I
don't see 2100 on the short term horizon unless there is some
unexpected great news...Like they decide to make me the new Fed

So...everyone got excited about the "Incomplete" prelim GDP...When the final #'s are in...I predict they will be lower:

Hey Doug, here's a chart on ENER I posted on a private forum earlier this week (11/1/05).... I think it might be a good short any time now. This link might appear huge at first, but it will shrink when it completely downloads.

Anyway...I sold TARO NWRE QDEL earlier...Also traded OSUR...overall I made a little bit on the total thanks to NWRE.
Traded URBN from 31.30's to 31.70's
I ended up having a pretty active day...later I traded:
AOB -.07
ANN +.03
HME -.02
ITWO +.27
AQNT +.19
Played them all pretty quick...You are all invited to my house for pizza to spend my profits...I figure with a day like this I can splurge on a couple of extra large pineapple and anchovy supremes...Doug(IIC)

I actually like anchovies on occasion, but I'm not sure about the pineapple.
The more I read about KG the less I like it...I paid 14.95 for it and it is over 16 now...EPS coming up next week...Unless they raise their guidance I think it tanks...I will be out before earnings...Doug(IIC)

I just saw they have on in NY in February, maybe I'll go to that one. On a scale 1 to 10, how do you rate the expo? And is it really free??

Doug,
I hope you share some good info from the Vegas show with us. You mentioned a black boxed stock on a site that we won't mention. I asked over there if anyone was tracking the "black boxed" ones and didn't get one response, so I'm still curious about them. The unnamed ones wouldn't give me access to the free trial for premium information. They e-mailed me saying someone else already had that password. I e-mailed back telling them they were idiots and that I was the person with the password. They responded and let me on so I guess they want a different password and name for every service they offer. Brilliant!
billyjoe

Yes...the show is really free...There are free lectures...mostly sales hype though...but if you listen intently...you can get some interesting info. There are also paid seminars...I would love to hear Linda Raschke at her paid lecture...but I will pass for $795...But she seems to know her stuff and her free seminars are "Standing Room Only" ...She seems like a "Smart" cookie to me....Know's her stuff.
IBD seminars...hmm??? Joe Burns...The Canslim Expert??? I don't really like to put down employees of company's who are just doing what they are paid to do...I embarressed him in Chicago...I laid off in Vegas...Maybe he knows Canslim??? But I will tell you right now...If you are interested in Canslim he is no expert...Sounds like a recording to me.
If anyone cares to show up...We could all meet at the IBD Exhibit...You can see me in action...Tearing these guys apart...I don't pretend to be the EXPERT...But I think it is a shame that some companies put people at their booths who have no idea what they are talking about...Doug
IBD seems to have it down...Charge for EVERY add-on...Gimme a break!!!

The group got hammered on Friday w/ an A/D/U issues of 31/114/4...the whole group was down -2.7%.
I guess it depends what you think oil will do. If SWN stays above the 50 sma and oil goes up I think it will be OK. It is held at the 50 quite often...The 50 sma is about 66 right now.
The 50 sma is 66.07 the 50 ema is 66.43 on SWN
Stockcharts.com was down Friday...seems to still be down today...but one of our members here...MTM...has a real nice free Charts and Scan thing at his site...You should give it a try:

Ninner,
You like SWN, and with a split coming, (which I didn't know about before), I wouldn't be shorting it. But how about this play:
Buy SWN at $69.00 (current price).
Sell the NOV $75 call for $1.10 (current price).
The call expires Nov 19--10 trading days away. I don't think she can bust the $75.65 resistance--and that would make a triple top--we'd really need good news to bust that one. The chart says the news just isn't there. So pick up the $1.10, and if we have a downturn, then sell the DEC calls. If SWN pops over $75.00, you still have a $7 gain in less than two weeks--what is there to cry about? If she retreats, you have solid support at $66, and with your call money, you are in good shape. Looks like a nice trade to me.

Besides selling KG early at 16.76 which I'm very pleased about...I sold 1/2 of FORD in the 22.30's...which I'm not so pleased about...but I told myself I'd do it over the weekend...so I'm happy about the self-discipline aspect and it was over a $4.00 gain in a few weeks...Plus I still have the other 1/2...Made no buys today...IIC

Just a 35% accounting error? I wouldn't be smart enough to be a GM accountant , but it would be difficult for even me to screw up that bad.

Gonna track these for a week or two from Friday's closing price and see how they perform.

Also bought HOM after slight dip.Actually it was close to a 10% dip. Since earnings report is over I think we're safe for a few months. Are you putting a stop on yours?

Nasdaq to let firms clip tickers
By Greg Sandoval
Staff Writer, CNET News.com
Published: November 15, 2005, 3:13 PM PST
TalkBack E-mail Print TrackBack
Nasdaq, the world's largest electronic stock exchange, will allow companies to trim the number of letters in their ticker symbols from four to as few as one starting in January 2007.
Since the Nasdaq was founded in 1971, the marketplace has used four-letter symbols. Under the new plan, Microsoft, which now trades as "MSFT," could conceivably adopt the symbol "M." In comparison, most companies trading on the New York Stock Exchange are listed under two- and three-letter symbols, while 21 companies, including Ford (F), Kellogg (K) and Citigroup (C), are identified by a single letter.
Nasdaq is responding to a request by the Securities and Exchange Commission that exchanges agree on a uniform approach to distributing ticker symbols. The reason for the switch is to protect U.S. markets in case of a disaster or national emergency, said Bethany Sherman, a Nasdaq spokeswoman.
A more standardized symbol system would help Nasdaq back up the NYSE and American Stock Exchange should they be prevented from conducting business. Nasdaq has the capability to host all 6,700 publicly traded U.S. securities and unlike competitors, doesn't depend on a brick-and-mortar location to host trading.
Previous Next "We're the backbone of the capital markets," Sherman said.
Another reason for the switch is to allow companies to jump to a different exchange without worrying about losing their ticker symbols. In an e-mail to the stock-trading community, Nasdaq said symbols should be transferable to a competing market.
Adopting a new symbol format will likely impact electronic data-feed and data-capture systems used by brokerages and trading houses. For that reason, Nasdaq is giving itself and customers a year to correct any glitches before implementing the plan.

Don't understand why the number of letters in the ticker symbol would effect a company "jumping to a different exchange".... Just change the rules to.... "Any tickers allowed to trade here in the case of an emergency" and allow the jump reguardless of the number of letters in the ticker symbol.... Sheesh!.... These guys have a couple of programmers on staff I dooo suspect.... duh?.... Wall Street types!... No common sense.... PLUS, I don't wanna re-learn 8,000+ tickers, took me a while to memorize them all as it was.

WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--Consumer prices rose modestly in October as energy prices fell for the first time in four months, and the core rate of inflation met expectations.
The Consumer Price Index rose a seasonally adjusted 0.2% last month, after jumping 1.2% in September, the Labor Department said Wednesday. The gain was the most restrained performance in the gauge since prices were flat in June.
The closely watched core index, which excludes volatile food and energy items, rose 0.2%, after inching up 0.1% in September. That gain was the biggest since March's 0.4% climb.
The median estimate of 19 economists surveyed by Dow Jones Newswires and CNBC was for a flat overall CPI reading and a 0.2% increase in the core during October.
The Federal Reserve lifted its key interest rate by a quarter-percentage point Nov. 1, the twelth such hike since mid-2004 to prevent runaway inflation. Bringing the federal funds rate up to 4.0%, policymakers cited rising energy prices in a statement suggesting another possible rate increase at their next meeting Dec. 13. The U.S. economy sped up in the third quarter despite Hurricane Katrina and energy prices, running at a 3.8% annual rate July through September.
A Labor report Tuesday said wholesale inflation rose 0.7% in October, driven by higher natural gas and electricity costs. The Producer Price Index also showed accelerating prices for goods deep in the production pipeline. Raw material costs rose 6.7% in October, after growing 10.2% in September. Economists, however, say companies are having difficulty passing the higher costs they must bear onto consumers, whose incomes are growing modestly and energy bills have climbed.
Wednesday's CPI showed energy prices fell 0.2% in October after leaping by 12.0% in September. The last time energy dropped was a 0.5% fall in June. Natural gas accelerated 14.0% last month - the largest gain since January 2001, when prices went up 16.7%. Gasoline fell 4.5% - the biggest drop since July 2004's 5.0%. Electricity rose 0.7% and fuel oil slipped 0.4%.
Housing prices, which account for nearly 41% of the index, rose 0.9%, after rising 0.4% in September.
Food prices advanced 0.3% a second consecutive month. Costs for beef and pork went up, but poultry dropped. Fruits and vegetables climbed.
Medical-care prices increased by 0.5%, after going up 0.3%.
Transportation prices fell 1.3%. New vehicle prices were up 0.5%. Airline fares advanced by 1.5%.
Clothing prices slipped 0.4%. Recreation prices rose 0.2%. Education and communication costs dipped 0.1%.
Year over year since October 2004, consumer prices were up 4.3% on an unadjusted basis. The core index rose 2.1% in that time.
In a separate report, the Labor Department said average weekly earnings of U.S. workers, adjusted for inflation, advanced by 0.4% in October. There was a 0.5% climb in average hourly earnings. Average weekly hours were flat. The CPI for urban wage earners and clerical workers went up by 0.1%.

IIC,
I just read OSUR's last 10Q. This is a solid company. Good earnings, generating cash, and product lines that are taking off. Hopefully the lawsuit against Schering-Plough for patent infringement doesn't become too big of a G&A cash drain, as they appear to be really fixated on pursuing this one. I noticed there are some serious chart readers here so I am not even gonna comment on the technicals on this one. But on the fundies side it is a serious contender...
Stella!!!!!!!!!

Hey Rich...Glad to see your first post was on my thread :)
Since you just joined...I recommend that you take a look around. Not only are Mr. Market's threads useful...But there are some others here that are well worth following on a daily basis.
BTW: For those that do not know Rich...He is a "Master Fundie's" analyzer in my book...Maybe you could start your own thread Rich???...Best, Doug(IIC)

Thanks for the kind words Doug. Would like to start a thread here as Mr. Market seems to have attracted a very talented group.

the verbage w/ each chart...but here it is unsorted(Gotta match it
yourself). I am not trying to sell anything here...but if you are a
Canslimmer...This guy knows his stuff:
The Investor's Business Daily reports the number of the IBD 6000
Accumulation/Distribution totals of stocks priced $5.00 and higher each
day in the General Markets and Sectors page. The graphs are developed
from a spreadsheet which is posted daily and are updated through
November 18, 2005. The IBD numbers are located on the General Markets
and Sectors page in the B section of the paper each day. The graphs are
copyrighted by Strategic Investing & Adrich Corporation although we
grant permission to our subscribers to use in any manner provided
attribution is given.
History of the A's
The above chart shows the number of A rated stocks in the IBD data base
of 6,000 stocks since 12/1/1998 and includes only stocks with a value
of $5 or greater. The chart clearly shows the large variation in the
number of stocks that are under significant accumulation by the
institutional investors. The swings in the number of A rated stocks
clearly indicates the markets trend. The downturn in the market that
began in January 2005 was clearly predicted by the pullback of the A
rated stocks in late December 2004.
The upturn in the A's beginning in late April 2005 heralded the start
of the summer rally. In late August, the drop in the A's suggested
that the summer rally was over. In early October, the upturn in the A's
signaled the start of the October rally.
Action in 2004 - 2005
On July 23, 2002, the number of A's were only 106, the all-time record
low. Shortly thereafter, the market began its rebound. During the
current move, we have seen the market reach approach the 200 level in
mid-April 2005. On Monday, April 18, the number of A's were down to
221 before we began the riding the roller-coaster in the market. After
peaking above 1000 in late July, the number of A's fell rapidly in
August and fell below the red zone. At the beginning of September, the
number of A's began to reverse. However, each new up move has not
exceeded the previous top which is a warning sign. Then after failing
to reach the previous high of late September, the A's fell dramatically
as seen above. In the second week of October, the A's began to reverse
and have moved steadily higher and are now at the red zone.
Have we seen the market top?
Market bottoms often occur when the number of A and B stocks are below
50%. Market tops occur when the combined number of A and B stocks is
above 70%. From mid February 2003, the number of A and B stocks rose
dramatically until the middle of June 2003. The general trend of this
indicator was downward until the double bottom of June and August
2004. Then the indicators moved higher until December 2004. In
December 2004, the A and B percentage reached the 70% level and and
then started a decline until April 2005. Since the middle of July, the
percentage of A's and B's declined until the August bounce.
The interesting thing to me about this graph is that since 12/1/1998,
the percentage of stocks rated A in the IBD 6000 that were over $5 per
share rarely exceeded 20% and only during two periods were under 10%.
Also, note that when the percentage of A's got over 25%, the market
turned down shortly thereafter in almost every case. In the past,
this has indicated a market top in place.
Likewise, when the percentage of A's fell below 5%, the market headed
up shortly thereafter. But note that the market can stay in the 5% to
10% area for months.
The Above $5 Universe
The following chart shows the number of stocks in the IBD database that
have been over $5 per share.
The number of stocks in the IBD database that were over $5 per share
continue to exceed 5,000 stocks. Note also that the highest number
coincided with the market's peak in March 2000. Since October 2002,
the number of stocks above $5 has shown an increase as the market rally
has continued. However, we are a long way from the high of 7,100 set
in March 2000. Since late January 2004, the number of stocks over $5
per share declined until the end of July 2004. Since the end of 2004,
the number of stocks over $5 per share declined until early May 2005.
However, the slow increase in the number of stocks over $5 per share
confirms that we are in a range-bound market.
The A + 194 Stocks
The following chart shows the number of stocks that have qualified for
the A+194 rating in each Stock Watch List and Market Commentary since
May 1999. These numbers are based upon the A+194 rating on Friday's IBD
paper. The A rated stocks peaked in early June 2005.
The following chart shows the A+194 data plotted as of each Thursday
night against the DJIA numbers.
The obvious recent divergence between the number of A + 194 stocks and
the DJIA is apparent from this chart. In the past, whenever, we had a
difference, it did not last long. Note that since March 2003, we have
the longest period of divergence since these statistics have been kept.
Frequency Distribution since 5/6/1999 of A+194 Stocks based upon
Thursday's close.
Number of A+194 since 5-19-1999 & A+190 stocks since 1-1-2002

I was wondering how you managed to get your greeting over here in the first place without subscribing to her service. Did you just bring her site URL over and that contained the video? Did you take a good look at the site and her assortment of email cards for every occasion. Some real nice stuff. The subscription is $8 per year or $14 for two years. I bought the two years. Now days any occassion card costs at least $4/5. I'll never have to send another real card again.

I can spot those things a mile away. They have a.... kind of "goldish" twinkle to them. If I gave my wife one of those, she'd never wear it. She'd rather wear no diamonds than fake diamonds.
Friday's MoMo:
Since it was a short day, I lowered the required volume to make the list to 1.27x ADV vs. the normal 1.50x ADV. The normal criteria to make the list is:
1) Must be in the Top 5% of my Relative Strength Database. My RS figures may not exactly match other's RS numbers because I only have 5,500 issues, I use 1-100 and I probably don't figure RS for IPO's the same way.
2) Must close up at least 2% for the day.
3) Must have traded at least 1.50x ADV.

Anyway, speaking of the IBD 100...I just checked out the IBD Forums for the first time in quite a while...I feel sorry for those s*ckers...Get a life!!!...Use IBD for info...not to make your decisions for you.
Actually, I think their Forum could be good if they cared enough to pay for an objective moderator...Heck, I'd do it for about $250,000 a year...Doug

Out of those 5 I only owned DHB. Got caught in that switch where the top officers all unloaded their stock right after I bought it at around $20. It fell like a brick an I lost bigtime before I got out. But CYD was one of my biggest winners an made up for DHB's losses and more. Was in an out of it several times. Doug you should have known that one. Every one of them is in the crapper now.

Amazingly, you may be right , but that's not the answer I was looking for. They are all in the top 10 of biggest losers of 2005 , having lost between 70 - 80% of their value.

I had forgotten all about CYD . It also was one of my biggest winners. Did you own it when they paid the monster special dividend ? I'm not sure if it was a special dividend , but I thought it was a mistake when it showed up in my portfolio total value didn't know anything about it in advance. Got out a month or so before it was too late.

What is the problem with IBD's forum ? I've been wondering that myself. Mr. Market's is an open forum , but doesn't attract the nuts like IBD's . Is it just too big ? You'd think they'd get a highly informed group over there , but it's not the case. We sure have a good bunch here. Nobody's called me an idiot yet. Haven't found any site that can match this one.

The problem with the IBD Forums is that it is just a bunch of "mindless hype" ...It actually could be worthwhile if they were not too cheap to hire somebody to moderate and guide it.
There is a lot of good info produced by IBD...But not many know how to use that info to their financial benefit...And IBD doesn't seem to be interested in showing anyone how to do it IMO....Their seminars are a waste of $$$ IMO
I think this forum is very good...Because Mr. M allows the ideas of others to be freely posted whether they are his cup of tea or not. But there are some others that also are good...I think the key to running a good forum is the allowance of open communication between members....and knowing when to put your foot down when things get outta hand.
I probably spend way too much time on Stock forums, Chats etc...At least my wife says I do...But I'd say this one is very beneficial...Many good ideas traded.
But...Although I think the IBD Forums are a bunch of BS overall...I will admit...I met my trading partner there in 2003...So, I don't really want to bash 'em too much..Got my money's worth many times over...Plus I have a "Very Best Friend & Trading Partner" thanks to their Forum....Doug(IIC)

It was on Morpheus Trading Groups stalk sheet several times. I must have been in an out of it at least 3 times during the initial runup and then again after it have fallen on bad times and was in the mid 20's range. I would have to go back an look but I think it may have been the first play after the DHB debacle for me and was like a quart of blood at the time. I've forgotten all about it. Wonder how it is doing now. Will have to take a look. Wow, terrible slide down. Closed at $8.41 Friday.

Sisterwin,
I must apologize for my one time spanking. But do you feel that you are a better trader over the long run for it? Some people don't even realize it but they love to get spanked, that's why they keep doing the same things over an over again. You seem to have become aware of the fact that you can make yourself into a better trader by remaining open minded an absorbing from what's around you.

No need to apologize for my spanking... I am one that enjoys a good spanking every now and then. Hoping not when it comes to money..... want nothing but praises. I am willing to make my mistakes, hopefully not expensives ones. I have put stops on all my stocks. Feel free to step in any time you see the need, lost my ego out at sea and smart enough to know when I dont know. After the frist of the yr. I plan on selling off about 300 shares of Ge and use that money to for trading. The Ge was an inherentance with a cost base of about 25. I will be asking alot of questions during my endevor. My plan is to stick with a plan like the "huge one", 15-17% gain then sell. My gains will go towards my "Mortage fund". SO, spank me spank me.. when you see the need.

Sisterwin,
You sound like a very practical person who plans her moves. That's a great trait. Keep an open mind an absorb as much as you can from what's circulating around here an apply it to your own strategys. #1. Always set stops an always honor your stops. Once you get used to using them an integrate them into your own strategys and risk they will become much more positive and alot less negative with getting stopped out of positions against your wishes. It's all part of the learning curve. By the end of next year you'll be way ahead of the game from where you're at now.
Speaking of GE. My wife's mother left us a pile of it 15 years ago. I put it into a dividend re-investment plan and haven't touched it since then. It's amazing how quickly it will multiply with the splits and dividend re-investment.
Good luck and happy holidays to you.

Doug,
On the first url is that you where is says, "ask Doug"? I've been into the dividend re-investment thing for close to 30 years. Everything we own in our retirement accounts and the blue chip portfolios are hooked up to a DRIP. When we purchase, I only actually buy after a split or when they are at a very low point, is commission free an all the dividends get plowed back into the stocks. The only negative point about the DRIPs is that the dividends get re-invested at the price of the stock when the dividends are issued which could be when the stock is at a high point but it all averages out. We own stocks that we have been re-investing the dividends in for 30 years. That's 30 years of commission free trades in a decent number of stocks that we haven't ever touched or taken any dividends or money out of them. It's amazing of how it will multiply. If someone would have said that to me 30 years ago I would never have believed them. I just lucked out by getting started in it because of my wife and her mother and my wife wouldn't let me ever touch any of it which is the only reason it's still there.
LOL...I saw that too...But it is a different Doug...My name is Doug Gregory

An' I have to re-read it.
Besides, you can show it to the boys downtown,
They won't believe that it's gone.
There used to be a time I was all the S & P ever wanted.
All the investor that it ever needed.
I come home to find, just like that, it's up an' vanished.
An' the only thing it left behind for me:
Is this big blue chip,
Folded up in my pocket.
Yeah, don't laugh: it's been two months;
I still got it.
Sometimes I have to read the sucker twice,
Just to make sure I ain't forgot that it's gone.
You know, my psychiatrist said:
"Tell me, what do you see,
"When you look at these charts,
"Of, er, reds an' greens?"
You know, I looked at 'em all,
But they all looked to me like big blue chips.
There used to be a time I was all the market ever wanted.
All the investor that it'll ever need.
I come home to find, just like that, it's up an' vanished.
An' the only thing that's left to do for me:
Is stand high on this cliff,
Overlooking the sea.
With my big blue chip aeroplane,
That I just set free.
An' I'm gonna wait here a few more minutes,
An' if it don't come back to me:
You guessed it: it's gone.
Crash landing.
Bye bye, baby.
Remember who told you first:

Good buy Doug!.... Nice pick in INPC too.
Did you notice that URBN and OSUR both filled their gaps today?.... I was looking for that to happen.... I'm ready to jump back on both those tomorrow dude.

OSUR will gap up tomorrow no problem. Retail hurt by too many discounts....CWTR may be better than URBN though.

Ran some filters on that list and these are the ones I like.
Gonna track these for a week or two from Friday's closing price and see how they perform.

Now, my original speculation was that generally the one's on both

Ups/Downs the last 3 weeks are 22/1 17/2 16/13. But just like the IBD
100, my lists are only offered as possible ideas...not recommended
buys. For example, even though GOOG and CTHR appear on both lists...I
would never consider buying either one. I would also not consider
buying HANS at this point.
Nobody can come up w/ a "Sure Thing" list week after week IMO...Best, Doug(IIC)

Doug,
Have you ever paper traded ports of any of the Mr.Breakout watchlists , such as cup w/handles , IIC 100, or undiscovered gems ? Glad to see 2 of my top 10, HOM, RWC also in your top 10. MED and TLF also made my top 10 , but are down the list on the IIC 100.
When determining your lists , how high of a value do you place on Relative Strength vs. Earnings ? I'm trying to fine tune screening , adding a few and deleting others. I'll get rid of "% of management ownership" this week.
Thanks.

No...I never paper traded any of those lists. They are only intended as a starting point.
The IIC 100 is based on Earnings and RS and a few other things. I personally like high RS stocks. However, my RS database only consists of 5500 stocks and it goes from 1-100. So my RS numbers may not match other's RS numbers...but from the one's I've ever checked they are pretty close except for some IPO's...I don't don't know how others figure the 1 year RS on IPO's that are less than a year old but it must be different than the way I calculate it....Best, Doug

ICSC-UBS Store Sales
Definition
This weekly measure of comparable store sales at major retail chains, published by the International Council of Shopping Centers, is related to the general merchandise portion of retail sales. It accounts for roughly 10 percent of total retail sales. Why Investors Care
Released on 12/6/05 For wk 12/3 2005
Store Sales, W/W change
Actual -3.1%
Highlights
Retail sales plunged in the Dec. 3 week according to ICSC-UBS's tally that showed a very sharp 3.1% week-to-week drop and year-on-year growth of 3.5% vs. 5.1% in the prior week. The report said the week-to-week drop is becoming "standard," reflecting a weak comparison with the Black Friday promotional blitz. The report said 9% of consumers have completed their holiday shopping already, unchanged from a year ago. Given mostly soft retail indications so far in the holiday season, many are expecting shoppers to push back purchases even further than prior years. The report said the current slide back in gas prices, now at their lowest level since June, should give a boost to holiday sales. Redbook's weekly tally is up later this morning.

Hey Sis...I have various accounts(4) and various dollars I put in and various goals for each trade...From 3 minute plays(based on news or 1 min. charts) to day to swing to intermediate term...I use different criteria...I rarely use hard stops although I did today on SPNC when I had to go to work...removed it when I got to the office.
I like it...but I saw Naz support at 2245...when we got down there I said to myself...Why risk it???...I sold. Better safe than sorry...I'd rather miss a nice gain than take a big loss.
Unless I'm in it for the long haul...like WITS...I just try to adapt to what is happening...not what I "want" to happen...NOBODY CARES what I want to happen...Just try to figure out what is "actually" happening...Best, Doug

Doug,

I don't post the IBD 100...That would be copyright infringement.
I posted my IIC 100...and yes, it is in ranked order from 1-100.
The list I post of those that are on both the IIC 100 and IBD 100 are in alpha order...There is a record number on both lists this week (30)...It will never be 100 because I think IBD has a $15 share cutoff and I don't...This week the IIC 100 has 15 stocks under $15...Doug

Ski, I have not a clue about HOM but IMO this thing is getting ready to explode. Now the direction is unknown. Notice the compression on my moving averages. This normally happens before a violent movement. The 50 day historic volatility is 76 so it has potential to really explode... The only thing I do not like is the gap down suggesting a change in direction, but who knows. I would keep a close eye on it!!

The gap down was on news http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/051201/dath029.html?.v=33

I've been struggling with holding or dumping the position for the last week or so. Their guidance for 4th qtr. 2005 & yearly 2005 & 2006 is up but I thought it would have gone off by now. I feel the same way Runner does, like it is getting ready to pop and go off one way or another, but I'm not quite as confident as I was a week or two ago when I entered. My stop is $5.43 so I'll give it at least to there this week. It seems to be showing some kind of strength by not dropping radically this week on much lower average volume but everytime it goes over $5.80 it gets knocked back down. Someone is unloading into any strength it shows. Someone who probably bought real early and is taking a nice gain in this price range.

Runner,
I've been watching that short interest grow. You're right about the shorts sweating it out right now. They're 4th qtr. ends Dec. 31 and we're getting down to the wire so there is a very real possibility of a short position panic. Except for this Friday the stock has been holding up fairly well on lower than average volume and Friday was also another drop on much lower than average volume.
I like the fact that it hasn't really folded and dropped big time and all the recent drops have been on much less than average daily volume. I'm prejudiced but not foolish. I'll have that stop in place at $5.43 Monday morning.
The short interest goes up...but the days to cover goes down.
The chart is interesting...and maybe it pops??? But hurricane season is over and I'm not planning on any earthquakes in the next quarter ;)
Hopefully many of you are enjoying the Freebie at DailyGraphs this weekend http://www.investors.com/offers/previewdetails.asp

It's a little tip I picked up from Mr. Market...only I changed it a little bit...I will hold until I'm up 100%...That will be at $28.98.
Actually, I think WITS has held up rather well w/ the Blue Pumpkin deal, all the insider selling and the 4 million additional shares...the later 2 items might have made other stocks tank. I also think that their global focus on improving their customers business is a winner if they don't screw it up.

Good luck in the market direction and emini ventures! I'm sure you'll do very well. Looking forward to any posts you make in these regards.
Advice?? Shoo, you don't need any! heh I've said it all before in previous posts of mine about the eminis and how they're a different animal to stocks. Discipline with stops is a must or it's just a matter of time before one gets bitten. Recommend using OCA order platform where you can send all three orders with one click (IB's Booktrader or Ninja trader etc. with hotkey/mouse click preferences setup), use stop limits for every single trade entered immediately (no mental stops), have a back up action plan for the times either you lose power/net or the exchange closes down (i.e. what will you do for order management and hedging). You've probably thought of all of this anyway. Again, good luck!

Nice pattern...I would say the right side high of the cup was 25.00 on 11/7....On the weekly the handle was a bit short but the p/v was good....On the daily the b/o was attempted on 12/2...vol was about avg at the time...pulled back...but on lower vol which was OK.
The real b/o came over multiple days which is not the norm...12/14-12/16...Argueably one could say today was the b/o...Overall not a "Classic"...but close enough. It was on my radar but the whippy action caused me not to pay close enough attention...But overall...a good pattern IMO...Doug

Don't you think it has not really "broken out" until that horizontal line is broken?
I see what you are saying...actually, it may be just forming the right side high of the cup now...In fact now that I look again...it probably is...In which case it should form a handle from here...Makes sense.
But, if you are considering the horizontal line...that line does not make much difference in a Cup w/ Handle pattern...The right side high is what creates the pivot point...and the right side high can be higher or lower than the left side high. By how much???...I've read many differernt interpretations...But I'd prefer +/- 5%.

hello DMK, this might sound like a silly question, however im a new member.
Can you tell me where you get your chart on which you had RHAT ?
It seems to have pretty decent details, I can use all the knowledge it provides.
Is it from a website or a software you're using ? I'd appreciate your help.

Ninner,
RIMM was Morpheus Trading Groups stalk of the week this week. Came out with it on Tuesday of this week. I think there was some good news across the wires Tuesday at Briefing.com and the stock spiked around $3.50 or so. I didn't make the play when it triggered at their setup. Looks to have lost some of the glitter today though.

Well, IBD got smart and finally dropped CTHR...Unfortunately, CTHR still shows up in the IIC 100 dropping from # 5 to # 65. That's the problem w/ mechanical scans...Can't do anything about the way the results come out based on your criteria.
I was a bit surprised that NILE dropped off the IBD 100...Especially since they had an article about it in the IBD 100 section in this Tuesday's paper. But I'm pretty sure their scan is mechanical too.
The IIC 100 has 18 stocks under $15 this week.
Before I ran the scan this morn I was perusing the IBD 100 and LIFC jumped out at me. It was added to the IBD 100 this week at # 40...Coincidental because it was on the IIC 100 last week at # 40...This week it drops to # 55...But I like it...IIC

hello DMK, this might sound like a silly question, however im a new member.
Can you tell me where you get your chart on which you had RHAT ?
It seems to have pretty decent details, I can use all the knowledge it provides.
Is it from a website or a software you're using ? I'd appreciate your help.
It got it using TC 2000 software, you can find it @ www.worden.com

Thanks IIC for that list.
Ran some filters on that list and these are the ones I like.
Gonna track these for a week or two from Friday's closing price and see how they perform.

Have a great week.
After a couple months, here's where they stand. Talk about a great example of diversification saving the portfolio from disaster.

This week there are 27...Last week there were 27...Of the 27...5 were up and 22 were down....The worst showing in memory. But maybe this offers some nice pullback buying opportunities...But then again...Maybe not???
As I mentioned last weekend, I was a bit surprised that NILE dropped off the IBD 100 last week...Especially since they had an article about it in the IBD 100 section in last Tuesday's paper. But I guess they realized their mistake and they added NILE back this week.
There are 21 stocks on the IIC 100 that are under $15.00.
Happy Investing in 2006...Best, Doug(IIC)

Doug,
Could you give me some ballpark figures on how you'd weigh earnings numbers. Maybe on a 1-10 scale. I don't know about you but I run when next quarter earnings estimates are negative. Wouldn't consider purchasing such a stock regardless of past numbers. Thanks
a. past earnings
b. current earnings

I never really thought about giving them a numerical ranking...but for an intermediate or longer trade it would be about:
a. 5%
b. 25%
c. 70%

Looks like there was. But actually every day that I've checked which is over 100 days on various indices there were at least 2-6 nice opportunities.
I'm trying to identify characteristics of the the larger moves vs. the smaller moves...in general anyway.
But this Index Arbitrage is quite interesting.

I also got bumped. And I used to be a celebrity around here.
Since we have so many new members I thought it would be a good idea to reiterate the criteria for the MoMo (MOMENTUM) List.
I've been posting this daily list...except when I'm on vacation since early 2004.
They are not recommendations...They are simply stocks in the Top 5% of my Relative Strength(RS) database that closed up at least 2% on at least 50% more volume than the Average Daily Volume(ADV).
My RS numbers do not necessarily "exactly" match others RS numbers because we use 1-100 ratings, I'm sure we treat IPO's a little differently than others...Actually, I don't know how others treat them...And we only have 5,500 symbols in our database...Some others have more. But, generally our RS numbers are within a few of what I have seen elsewhere.

You mean, I can't file a lawsuit against you if I lose my life savings after buying a stock on your list??? lol
You mean, I can't file a lawsuit against you if I lose my life savings after buying a stock on your list??? lol
Chances are that you won't have to...I use the same formula that some large media companies use to calculate how much you would have made if you had bot all the one's on my MoMo list at the close on the day prior to when they appeared and sold them at the close on the day they appeared.
Assuming you bot the worst 10 everyday and compounded your investment...you would make well over 10,000%
I STRONGLY suggest that people do not get "Sucker Punched" on this Fakeout move the last 2 days...Did you see the selloff the last couple of minutes today?..."They suck you in and the spit you out"...Be VERY cautious...Doug(IIC)

You think you've been bumped! I feel like that guy in "Life of Brian" going on about a friend losing his friend's hammer. Not that anyone should be listening to me anyway. $$MM's popularity seems to be spiking big-time right now... I hope we see another 1300 members sign up in 2006!

IIC, are these arranged in any paricular order?
No they are not. And there is a reason for that...It is so I can make those jokers at the BIG media companies work harder to try and figure out my formula...But they never will be able to do it anyway.
However...The IIC 100 is posted in order from 1-100.

I traded AMMD today using my new signal system. My signals are more apropos to the Indices...especially the RUT...On paper I have been kickin' a**...But that always happens.
Bot a small position on p/b at 19.49...trimmed at trim signal at 20.06...My neutral signal came in at 20.03...But I missed it because someone came into my office...So that's where I would've been out. By the time I came back the signal was up...Sold the rest at the next neutral signal at 20.16.
BTW...I got this alert this morning: http://news.ft.com/cms/s/f39fa8e4-7e25-11da-8ef9-0000779e2340.html
