if you are buying new highs, you should be getting good results - been plenty last month - an easy market the past two weeks in this regard

but if you must persist and avoid doing that, watch for overbalancing after any sell off, bit the example, ite still to watch, so you watch for continued accumulation, a possible double bottom, and a buy across 26.5. But if ite were to go lower, then find another stock instead. Note by doing this you don't have to know anything about the stock, just wait for others to decide it is a buy. possibly also ada

dividend patterns continue, jyc

wtp, a good shape to watch for into highs - sort of a cup with handle forming

the technology of slt is worth following

a tech stock gone sideways for ages but returning to profitability, hwg (this decade cycle has really only just started in my view, and a few years to run yet, to peak in 2007/8/9 - but watch those indicators of course)

I'd say she should have donated more to the republicans. Stock holders liked it though, the stock goes up 37% and restores $93 million of her former wealth. Still yet to understand; why bother selling a few Imclone shares for a very small profit when your loaded ?

The worst Iraq fighting since June 28 handover date was exactly 30 degrees later.

Last but never least, following is one of the most important links you will ever get, if you are interested in real estate cycles. Suggest you frame his editorial, though i am working on a clearer presentation of the cycle dates he gives. Everything is lining up for around 2008 for a peak, though always watch those indicators first.
