10% is a great gain, don't blow it//// Set stops behind 10 to 20% gains to protect profits.///Do nothing without checking your notes on STOCKPICKr/////Lack of Catalysts:
Companies and stocks need catalysts in order to advance. If a company doesn't have new products on the horizon or expect to show earnings growth or momentum of some kind,consider avoiding it.
/////NEVER NEVER BUY OFF HOURS!! DONT HOLD TECH BETWN MID FEB & AUG (European slowdown)
You should be looking for companies with good sustainable dividends, share buybacks and catalysts that can drive stocks higher.///// Momentum = increasing earnings est. /////Work to GET OUT OF MARGIN ACCOUNT INTO CASH ACCOUNT!!! and trim to 5 positions by the middle of 08'/////Henry thinks we should stick to LRG CAPS with growth potential.///// Look to sell any strength in tech to raise cash and cut back on exporsue to that sector./////ON PULL BACKS DIVERSIFY WITH RETAIL, BANK, GOLD, WATER, OIL SERVICES and DIVERSIFIED FOREIGN HOLDINGS. /////Zweig suggests that companies have a price-to-earnings ratio of at least 5—to weed out weak companies—but no more than three times the current market p/e or 43, whichever is lower. His strategy makes sense for investors who like the potential of growth companies but aren't willing to pay premium prices for them./////Founders of the popular Motley Fool site on the Web, the Gardners, specialize in searching out stocks of small, fast-growing companies with solid fundamentals, including healthy profit margins, little debt, ample cash flow, respectable R&D budgets and tight inventory controls. A key indicator of a strong stock, they believe, is one for which the company's earnings growth rate is greater than its price-to-earnings ratio. Wall Street calls this metric the PEG ratio (price/earnings-to-growth ratio); the Gardners call it the Fool Ratio. By either name, it's a great way to separate attractively valued growth stocks from those that are overvalued. The Motley Fool investment strategy will appeal to investors seeking solid growth companies in the small-cap sector of the market./////PEG ratio results greater than 1 suggest one of the following:
The market's expectation of growth is higher than consensus estimates. OR
The stock is currently overvalued due to heightened demand for shares.
/////PEG ratio results of less than 1 suggest one of the following:
Markets are underestimating growth and the stock is undervalued. OR
Analysts' consensus estimates are currently set too low.

A. BGF was an enhanced income security,
which represented one share of common
stock (BGS) plus $7.15 principal amount
of senior subordinated debt. They first
separated the note from the stock, then
did a partial redemption of the bond.
You should have received the following
for each share of BGF
1 share common (BGS)
$4.28 cash per share for the partial
redemption (this includes dividend)
1 note with face value of $3.11
There really is no market for the bond
portion. You will probably end up
holding it until redemption.
Hope that helps.

I got in @ $28.00 I think that the ROW returns for CSCO will boolster
any precieved weakness in the financials and if the banks want to
compete then a strategic capital investment may be needed in new
tech.I doubled my position @ 24.80 Consider Selling at $34 or above//
Stop loss @ 22.00. Buy more below 23.00.
