I am a Sr. Business Analyst/Programmer Analyst at the 3rd largest domestic auto producer (I'm sure you guessed Chrysler). I have been here for 21 years, all in Information Services working on mainframe products. I have been involved in the stock market via mutual funds for 15 months. I have learned an awful lot in that time. A couple of months ago, I ran across WJO's book and was quite impressed with it. I have read it twice, marked it up and written an outline of it so that I can review it faster, more often. But I have to be careful because I have picked up a lot of stuff and been impressed...until I come across the next author. It is safe to say that I am very confused right now. I have a lot of money to invest that I accumulated ov er the years in Chrysler's GIFs (Guaranteed Income Funds), but I have to be careful because I am 56 years old and starting to close in on retirement, which could happen as soon as 2 years from now or as long as 9 years from now. For the record, I have 5 adult children and 14 grandchildren. Still married to the same woman for 36+ years. I have followed the debate on CANSLIM for the last few days via the CANSLIM Digest. (My server was down, so I just got 5 or 6 of them today. My eyes are glazed from trying to catch up. ) I found the discussion very interesting, although I was put off by the harsh tones, of course. Hopefully, that period is over. What I was wondering is this. I have been getting one or two newsletter advertisements every week for a couple of months or more. They all sound interesting. I am so new with CANSLIM and overwhelmed with data that I feel it might be helpful if I got ideas from one or two of these newsletters and then applied the CANSLIM criteria to them. I realize this isn't strictly what this forum is about, but if someone is willing to share their opinions, I would be quite appreciative. Perhaps you could send me some private e-mail at VRB4@chrysler.com. In particular, I am wondering if anyone has any experience with the following newsletters, aphabetically arranged, and, in general, with any other newsletter I haven't encountered yet that you think is worth trying. 1. The Garzarelli Outlook (I already have a hint of some of your opinions on this one) 2. The Individual Investor's Inside Track - Jack Adamo 3. Invest With The Masters - Dan Bruce Levine 4. Investing With Barry Ziskin 5. Investor's World - John Dessauer 6. The Oxford Club - Stephen Miller, David Lambert, Thomas Fielding I will probably just lurk around for awhile more. I really don't have much to offer right now although I will stick my neck out on one stock just to see if I am in the right ballpark. I have been looking at Market Facts. I can't apply all of the CANSLIM criteria, but I'll try. It has an EPS=99, RP=99 , A/C=A. It is near new highs. It has approx. 140,000,000 shares, volume=100,000 yesterday, but much higher when it is rising. I don't know it's institutional sponsorship. It seems to have a perfect cup w/handle, except the high/low spread each day may be too much. Based on my studies, it looks great, but...I don't have the confidence to put my money where my mouth is. I appreciate any help you feel you can share. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 7 Apr 1997 13:50:41 -0700 (PDT) From: sabeel@loc1.tandem.com (ahmed_sabeel) Subject: [CANSLIM] O'Neil's free seminar Has anybody attended William O'Neil's free seminar?

Wish I had owned it at the close of business this past Thursday. Up over 8 Friday and 5 today. It's graph looks like a roller coaster that I might have liked to ride back when I was young. Hope you all had a very, profitable day. Being IN makes days like today worth the stomach pains over the last few weeks. Combining something Lynch said, "If you take 22, I think, days out of the year and you are out of the market you have just missed the years gain in it's entirety." Opinions on this one I am sure will be varied. The stocks I mentioned before the opening bell this morning did as follows: MLHR up 3 1/8, TUES up 3, PSUN up 1 1/4, SFDS up 1 3/16, ASTSF up 3/4, GDYS down 1/8, AMD up 1 3/4. Not all days can be like this one but it's day like this that make it fun, worthwhile and profitable. TODAY alone made up ALL losses incurred over the last 30 days. Sorry if I sound a little excited but I am. Hope you got in on some of them and are enjoying the "high" also. Have a good day.

So far, you have said that you have a better method than CANSLIM and you want to prove it through a contest. I don't care for contests because they don't contribute to my learning and future money-making abilities. If you have a better method, I would like to hear about it. If you were ready to start the contest with some picks, please share them and the reasons why you would pick them. I am sure you will get some response back with disagreement and criticism, but that's how we learn. Perhaps, you might be able to refine your method to work even better. As for keeping score, you can update us periodically with the progress of your picks along with what went right and what went wrong. I hope the group will allow this. Good luck to all!

Personally, I wouldn't waste a cent on them. Just for grins, I setup a 'watch' portfolio for some of the contestants on W$W. John Dessauer's ads caught my eye, because he made some specific predictions. His prediction that SEW would be a 10-bagger struck me as odd. I just couldn't see anything in the earnings or cashflow that would justify that statement. His portfolio is up 3.22% for the year, with 3 winners, 6 losers, and some ADR I can't find an initial price for. His big winner was HWG which he bought at 15 7/8 and is now as 26 1/2. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 7 Apr 1997 13:29:45 -0800 From: pwahl@postoffice.worldnet.att.net Subject: [CANSLIM] The Market Alright Tom, here is my attempt at a market commentary, word to the wise, treat me as a contrary indicator.. All of todays market action happened in the first five minutes of trading, believe it or not. 5 minutes after the market opened, the Dow was up 52 points, S&P maybe 5 points, NASDAQ was up around 12. Market has just closed and it did an end of day fade, with the DOw looking like it will finish with a 29 point gain, the S&P around 4 points. The Utility average slipped into a loss at the end of the day, bonds, however, did have a nice bounce from the Friday dip. Overall I didn't think today's performance was very impressive. Advance Decline numbers were good, but volume not so impressive. I have a feeling this may simply be a bounce off of oversold levels, as people like to call them. As I've said before, the bond market is quite important, and until that shows signs of turning, don't expect a lot of headway to be made in the stock market. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 07 Apr 1997 19:29:29 -0400 From: derek b Subject: Re: [CANSLIM] O'Neil's free seminar I would venture that the majority of members of this list have attended.

I was certainly not well versed in CANSLIM when I attended last October or so. I got a 5 - 10 minute briefing on my way there, but I was very impressed with the presentation. You will not regret going if you are at all interested. Quoted: - -------------------------------------------------------------------------= - ---- My first connection with CANSLIM was to go see O'Neil deliver an address in a sort of auditorium last October or so. They gave out free audio tapes and two weeks free IBD. WJO showed charts after explaining CANSLIM and then fielded questions. My ride dragged me out of there...I didn't want to leave. I believe he asserted several times while pointing to steeply rising charts with a long stick that he would consider buying more at various points as stocks continued to rise. There is no hard and fast rule, and the message was at least in part that every chart tells a different story, and WJO read them each as if he were seeing it for the first time as he analyzed it. It was to give an idea of the sorts of things one might deduce... If you ever get a chance to see O'Neil give one of these addresses, check it out. I believe you can call IBD or check out the newspaper for details.

First, their on no CANSLIM numbers on these picks. They were basically, first picked because of their graph (aka - price pattern) shape. Before, I were to purchase any of these, of course there is much more homework for me to do. I am just "sharing" some information with you that you can use as you see fit. Anytime a stock that is OVER $100 and is trading 2 and 3 million shares a day I want to know why. I know my Aunt Matilda is not doing all the buying. TBR has closed UP the last five days in a row, the last three being new 52 week highs. SVM has completed a buy back, per my info, but just continues to advance. Is the advance over? Who knows. I just know that for the last five days in a row it has closed at new 52 week highs. Some of the other stocks that I am watching closely who closed today at new 52 week highs are: ALTR, ASTSF, ASMLF(not intra-day but close of day), BMCS, ENML, HRS, MLHR, PSUN, TER & TUES. Some of their graphs are plain scary. QNTM has been up the last five days in a row. AMAT up the last five days in a row. CPWR up the last five days in a row. Oh well, some of you asked for stocks to look at so hope these fit the bill. Good luck and remember - I AM NOT TOUTING A SINGLE ONE OF THESE. Do your own homework and if you feel froggy - - Jump. Have a good night and let's hope for another day or two like today even if it does prove to be just a bounce. That's when stop loss orders come in real handy.

The private ceremony took place at the elegant Inn at Little Washington in Washington, Virginia, with Supreme Court Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg officiating, according to NBC officials and a friend of the couple. The couple's 75 guests were brought to the quaint Virignia town located about 1 1/2 hours away from Washington in buses stocked with champagne. The bride, 50, is NBC's chief foreign affairs correspondent, based in Washington. The bridegroom, 71, has been the Federal Reserve chairman since 1987. The bride's first marriage ended in divorce. The bridegroom's first marriage was annulled. In a recent interview Mitchell said the couple would not honeymoon right away because of their hectic schedules. Guests included ABC's Barbara Walters and her friend, Sen. John Warner, ABC's David Brinkley, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Colin Powell, and former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger. Just Little 'Ole Me, Michael R.

I will be ordering it tomorrow. Someone mentioned it is going to be available online in mid April. Do you know anything about this and if so, any opinion on the paper versus online version? Also, would the Quote Plus program and daily update subscription complement the DG or possibly confuse the issue. I have been trying the screening tools I use for the NAIC but, not surprisingly, they don't quite work. Different goals which I am keeping separate from CANSLIM. A couple of basic questions if you will. Are you looking for companies first through the graphs or through the quarterly reports which show the desired increased growth rate? Which is first, the chicken or the egg???(((grin))) Once you select a company, do you go as deeply into it as I would with the NAIC, i.e. getting 10K, 10Q's, annual reports, news reports, Value Line/S&P reports, etc. Like I said, different method. These questions will make a nice first few steps. Thanks one and all in advance!!
